Xiao Yuan bears a heavy responsibility. Because of certain restrictions, he has to get along with a group of scum people. When the mission was completed, the restrictions disappeared, and Xiao Yuan screamed in delight: Ah, this is the taste of freedom! The Demon Lord who treated him as a plaything and infected him with a Gu worm, the junior brother who disliked him, the young Pavilion Master who used his blood to save his own Senior Brother - forgive him for not accompanying them. Later, Xiao Yuan learned the "face changing technique" and could imitate anyone's appearance. With this, he starts various businesses: he can become what the clients wanted as long as he got paid enough. The business of Xiao Yuan's was booming. He earned a lot of money, and big shots from all walks of life came to him admiringly. Then... Junior Brother: Oh, I will never let Senior Brother leave me again! Pavilion Master: Xiao Yuan, do you want me to take out my heart to show it to you?! Demon Lord: What do I need to do for baby to forgive me, how about I let you bully me back? Wife chasing crematorium burning all over the world, Xiao Yuan smiles: Don't ask, asking means you've never loved before. Not my story nor my translation

High in the clouds above the planet of Venus, thirty students from Venus City Academy class 37 have been unplugged. Since the introduction of the highly addictive virtual reality known as Plugnet, a social crisis has begun to escalate in the planet's cloud-cities. Entire generations of Venusians are growing up and living their whole lives inside of devices called Plugtanks. While inside of these life-supporting tanks, they are constantly connected to the virtual reality leading to a total collapse of real world socialisation and the loss of ability to physically connect to other humans. To tackle this desocialisation crisis, the Venus City has developed a variety of special projects. Class VC37 has been selected for one of these projects. All thirty students in the class are being forcefully unplugged from their tanks, and thrust, anxious, afraid and ill equipped, back into physical reality. Forced to cohabitate with other students and to develop their social, physical and romantic relationships in order to complete the project, the students of VC37 will have to learn to adapt to their new existence and to depend on each other in order to survive the project and potentially earn themselves a ticket to leave Venus and the dopamine grip of Plugnet far behind for good.
