Quick Transmigration: Striving Every Day to Overcome Tribulation
Chapter 249 Precognitive Dreams
That night, as usual, I fell into a deep sleep from exhaustion, but little did I know that a strange dream was about to unfold.
In my dream, I saw my future, a wondrous life shrouded in a halo of luck.
In the early morning, sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains, gently falling on my face. I slowly woke up from my sleep, and the moment I opened my eyes, my heart skipped a beat—it was almost time for work!
I hurriedly threw on my clothes, not even bothering to wash my face, and rushed out the door, my mind filled with anxiety about being late and losing my full attendance bonus.
When I rushed into the company, panting, I found that the time clock was "frozen," the screen was completely black, and the maintenance personnel were shaking their heads helplessly.
My colleagues cheered and jumped for joy, and it was only then that I realized I didn't need to clock in today; I'd secured perfect attendance!
The heavy weight on my heart was lifted instantly, and I breathed a sigh of relief, secretly rejoicing.
After a busy day at work, I dragged my slightly tired body on my way home.
As I passed the lottery shop on the street corner, I inadvertently glanced at a lottery ticket on the ground and picked it up as if by some strange impulse.
I thought it was just a piece of discarded paper, but when I checked the winning numbers, my heart almost jumped out of my throat—I won, a million!
I clutched the lottery ticket tightly, trembling with excitement. This sudden windfall made me feel as if I were floating on clouds, so happy it was almost unreal.
I woke up from a wonderful dream, a smile still on my lips, feeling that everything was wonderful.
But when I was fully awake and looked at the alarm clock, my smile instantly froze on my face—I was really going to be late!
Just like in my dream, I rushed out the door in a panic and ran all the way.
Strangely, what happened next was exactly the same as in the dream: the time clock malfunctioned, and I found a winning lottery ticket...
I spent the day in a daze, my mind filled with doubts, yet I comforted myself that it was just a coincidence.
However, the same thing happened again the following night.
I had another dream about the future, and when I woke up, reality was a perfect replica of the dream.
Two consecutive miraculous experiences have convinced me that I possess the superpower of luck, and that each dream is a gift from fate.
As the days went by, I fully enjoyed the surprises brought by this good fortune. My work went smoothly, and my life was prosperous and comfortable.
Until that night, I entered my dream again, but this time, the scene suddenly changed—I saw myself in a scene of laughter and joy, collapsing to the ground without warning, the flame of life extinguished.
I woke up from a nightmare, my pajamas soaked with cold sweat, overwhelmed by a wave of fear. I made up my mind to avoid that fatal moment.
Strangely, as I rebelled against fate, everything began to spiral out of control.
Making mistakes at work one after another, the strange looks from colleagues felt like needles in my back; friends around me gradually drifted away, as if separated by an invisible barrier.
I am plunged into deep confusion and pain. What I once thought was good fortune has now become a Damocles' sword hanging over my head, and I don't know when it will fall.
Lately, every night when I close my eyes, I fall into a terrifying death loop.
On my way to work, a runaway car suddenly comes and hits me, splattering blood all over the street. Or at home, gas leaks inexplicably, and I am awakened from my sleep by thick smoke, but I can't open the door no matter what I do.
Every time I wake up from these nightmares, my pajamas are soaked with cold sweat and my heart is pounding.
I dared not let my guard down, and I memorized all the dangerous scenes in my dream, desperately trying to avoid them during the day.
No matter how careful I was, accidents still kept happening.
A roadside billboard was blown down by the strong wind and came straight at me; I had no time to dodge it.
I lay in a pool of blood, gazing at the gray sky, my heart filled with despair.
Even though they tried so hard to avoid it, why couldn't they escape death?

As dusk settled, the city's hustle and bustle surged through the streets and alleys like a tide.
Suddenly, a sharp whistling sound tore through the air. Su Su instinctively turned sharply to the side as she arrived. With a loud "bang," a huge billboard crashed heavily onto the spot where she had just been standing. The concrete ground was dented, and the surrounding ground was covered with cracks. Fragments of the billboard flew everywhere.
Su Su gasped for breath, her hands clutching her chest, feeling her heart pounding violently as if it were about to burst out of her chest.
Her gaze slowly moved down and landed on the sign that had been smashed to pieces.
A faint wisp of black demonic energy, like an eerie thread, was seen coiling around the remains of the sign.
Su Su frowned slightly, a hint of doubt and wariness flashing in her eyes.
Before she could react further, the sharp sound of police sirens grew louder as they approached.
Several police officers quickly moved through the crowd, skillfully setting up a cordon and dispersing the onlookers.
A police officer named Chen, with slightly graying hair and a calm and kind expression, walked up to Su Su, nodded slightly, and said in a polite and gentle tone: "Ms. Su, would you please come with us to the police station to make a statement?"
Su Su did not respond immediately. Her eyes were somewhat vacant, as if she was recalling something. After a moment, she softly uttered a sentence: "This is the seventeenth time this week."
The voice was soft, yet it carried an indescribable weariness.
"Officer Chen, I've always been lucky, but why is it that every time... it feels like I'm walking through the gates of hell?"
Su Su raised her head, looking directly into Officer Chen's eyes, her gaze strangely calm. "Do you think I might really...die one day?"
Officer Chen quickly waved his hand, forcing a reassuring smile: "Don't overthink it, how could that be! There's an old saying that after the worst comes the best. Maybe your bad luck has run its course and good fortune is just around the corner."
Su Su's lips curled up slightly into a faint smile, and she nodded gently, but said nothing more.
"By the way, Ms. Chen. Didn't you encounter any miracles before your good fortune?"
Su Su stood quietly in place, the surrounding noise receding like the tide. She slowly closed her eyelids and fell into a deep exploration of the original owner's memories.
Memory is like a slowly unfolding scroll, flowing backwards from the present moment.
At first, everything seemed perfectly normal. Every scene and every conversation was like a calm lake, without a ripple.
But when Su Su revisited this memory for the third and fourth time, a strange feeling quietly emerged.
It was an ordinary night of returning home, but the memory is like a jigsaw puzzle, jumbled and disordered.
Upon closer inspection, the images were found to be awkwardly spliced together from clips from the previous days. At times, they flowed smoothly and naturally, as if they were meant to be, while at other times they were choppy and blurry, like skipping frames in an old movie, creating a sense of incongruity.
Su Su clung tightly to this unusual memory, digging deeper along the clues.
Finally, she discovered that the original owner of this body, who had been kept hidden away, had picked up a videotape on her way home.
The original owner of this body was filled with curiosity but never looked at the contents.
But what happened next had an indescribable eeriness to it.
As if controlled by an invisible force, the original owner involuntarily brought the videotape home, then sat on the sofa and pressed the play button.
The screen lit up, and the image showed the original owner's own day, from the morning sunlight streaming through the window to the entire process of finding the videotape in the evening, every detail was crystal clear.
The original owner stared blankly at the video recording.
The scene finally freezes on the original owner sitting on the sofa, staring intently at the screen.
In an instant, snowflakes filled the screen, and interfering noise flickered incessantly.
Then, the scene reappeared, this time showing the original owner's lucky day after waking up. All the misfortunes were cleverly avoided, and every moment seemed to be carefully arranged.
Afterwards, the original owner turned off the TV, slowly closed his eyes, and lay down on the bed.
What seemed like an ordinary night actually held a hidden secret; it was the day before a beautiful dream.
From then on, every night the original owner thought she was sleeping soundly, but in reality, she would unconsciously turn on the TV, watch the recording of her lucky day in the future, and then lie back in bed. When she closed her eyes and opened them again, it was a new morning.
She thought she was dreaming, but she was actually seeing it.
The original owner's memories almost temporarily confused Su Su, but after looking at the timeline, one would know that this small world was where the male protagonist, as an ability user, was hunting down strange objects.
Su Su stood outside the police station, the evening breeze gently blowing, ruffling her hair. She couldn't help but raise her hand to her forehead, feeling utterly helpless.
Recalling the original owner's tragic fate, he was nothing more than a pitiful cannon fodder manipulated at will by a strange videotape, which would later kill several more people, prompting everyone to notice and launch an investigation.
However, this videotape, which should have been confiscated by the male protagonist, actually bewitched him in his previous life, causing him to become a vegetable without any consciousness.
Su Su said goodbye to Officer Chen and dragged her slightly tired body home.
As soon as the door opened, a strong demonic aura surged in, like a pack of hungry beasts, instantly entangling Su Su and even attempting to blind her, plunging her into darkness and chaos.
However, Su Su was not someone who could be easily manipulated.
With a sharp look in her eyes, she swiftly reached out and grabbed the thin wisp of demonic energy, tightly holding it in her hand.
She gave a soft chuckle.
The demonic energy seemed to sense a deadly danger in an instant, and like frightened mice, they scattered and fled back into the videotape.
Their panicked behavior was undoubtedly a case of trying to hide something, making it difficult for Su Su to miss the videotape.
Su Su snorted coldly, circulated the vast spiritual energy within her body, and her body was instantly enveloped in a layer of soft yet powerful light.
Her hands moved rapidly, her spiritual energy flowing like nimble threads, precisely probing into the videotape and pulling out all the demonic energy hidden within.
Su Su used her spiritual power to gather the demonic energy and then gave it to Qi Qi to pass on to her master and the others.
The demons actually dared to use their demonic energy to sneak into the small world using such despicable means, absorbing the fortune of those with great luck. They are simply audacious and have a death wish.
With the demonic energy completely extracted, the videotape lost its powerful concealment and deception capabilities.
Almost simultaneously, the detector that the officer had placed nearby went off sharply.
The next second, hurried footsteps echoed in the hallway, and a group of police officers quickly surrounded Su Su's room.
After a few rapid knocks, the door was kicked open with a loud bang.
Su Su inside the house and the policeman at the door stared at each other, both of them stunned, and the atmosphere at the scene froze instantly.
After a brief silence, the lead police officer spoke first, his tone tinged with apology: "Excuse me, Ms. Su. I'm on official business, please cooperate."
Su Su helplessly raised her hands and nodded gently to show her understanding.
The police quickly stepped forward and properly "subdued" the videotape, after which Su Su was taken back to the police station for questioning.
At the police station, Su Su recounted the entire story of finding the videotape to the police. After hearing her account, the police ordered her to remain in the city for the next month.
Su Su didn't care about this. Anyway, the troubles in this small world were resolved. She nodded in agreement calmly, only thinking about speeding up her pace.
