Synopsis:

In the most popular 3D keyboard online game "Tomorrow", an ordinary player, Zhang Zhiyin has a less common hobby–that is to visit Dr. Y, the ultimate boss – giving him gifts and hugs.

As a game produced NPC, the other side naturally has no response, but Zhang Zhiyin still insisted on visiting him rain or shine for 363 days. Until one day he decided to give up the game, the result was hit by a car.

Since then, he has been dreaming every night in which he will cross into the realistic world of 'Tomorrow' and return to the magical journey of normal life during the day.

Impressions: This was hilarious, especially the first few chapters where MC would always 'brush his face' with the boss. He would give him gifts and talk to the Boss NPC about his day/complain etc. MC gets into an accident and wakes up inside the zombie apocalypse game he was playing. The villain BOSS already likes him because of his 363 days of brushing face in the game so when gets into trouble he would often save him. And MC, of course, likes the boss as well. This was sweet and funny, but sometimes the MC's past would be touched and it would be explained how he ended up into a one-sided love with an NPC. Basically, he lacks drive (?) and also timid, there was a part where it was explained that he didn't dare do things cos what if it fails? and if it succeeds, what if later he loses it? That's why he can confess to the villain BOSS on his computer countless times, but in front of the Boss inside the game world, he doesn't dare say anything. Anyway, the misunderstandings are funny especially when the game residents would come up with their own explanations why their captain and the villain BOSS are inlove but standing on opposite sides etc. MC can still go back to reality when he goes to 'sleep' in the game world. When ML also materializes himself in the real world, it was the first time that our MC started to change. Like finding another job, having goals (to raise the villain BOSS) etc. I guess I just didn't like some of the loose ends like what happened to that researcher who proposed to destroy ML; and the resolution of the MC and ML was too...easy in the end? Lol. MC just can't bear Boss.
