Scene…
At the same time Minmin was undergoing her h.e.l.lish training, another problem surfaced in her mind that she couldn"t ignore…
—
Late at night, by the light of the desk lamp in the girls" dormitories:
Minmin sprawled painfully on the table as she spread open her transmigration planning notebook. There were various ways to transmigrate, but each had its own clauses and provisions, each had its own piercing red "Xs" crossed out next to it! The easiest way to transmigrate was via a car accident, but…

One month earlier.
A certain person hesitated from 4th Ring Road to 3rd Ring Road1, unable to work up the nerve to walk into the middle of the street.
In the end, a police officer pulled her away and earnestly admonished, "Young lady, what sort of matters can"t you take to heart at such a young age? What can"t you solve in this world? n.o.body has an easy life nowadays, right? So if you have to die, don"t die on my turf. It"s really difficult to deal with problems arising after an accident…"
A certain person waited three days before hailing a black car without a license plate. Originally, she was planning to take a wild joyride, but it took her three hours to drive from Tiananmen Square to Chongwenmen. Her driver cursed, "Tch! Another freakin" traffic jam!"
Thus, transmigration via car accident – eliminated!
There were other options: falling from a high height, jumping off a cliff, tripping and stumbling, falling off a balcony…but…

Two months earlier.
After a certain person fell down harshly multiple times from the bed, stool, desk, and ladder, the people downstairs came running up to throw open the door and curse. "To h.e.l.l with it! If you"re going to make a racket like this every night, I"ll beat you to death!"
A certain person was still disoriented after falling down and muttered, "Could I transmigrate…if someone beat me to death?"
The irritated party stiffened…
—
A certain person worked up her nerves multiple times while standing atop a flight of stairs, afraid to fall down…suddenly, someone b.u.mped her from behind! The figure wasn"t prepared in the least to fall down 89 steps…until she landed in the embrace of a boy! After the certain person raised her tearstained face to thank him and prepare to leave, the boy blushed and spoke.
"Zhao Minmin…actually, I…I…I"ve liked you for a long time."
A certain person froze at his words.
—
That same certain person strolled all over Beijing without finding a single satisfactory cliff. Then she decided to go find one elsewhere when summer break came. But after overhearing that cliff jumping didn"t necessarily kill a person, she gave up the idea.
A certain person felt that jumping off a building might crush an innocent pa.s.serby below or ruin some public works. Her death might frighten children as well, so she gave up this idea as well.
Falling from a tall height to transmigrate–eliminated!
Other methods include being electrocuted, falling into water, sleeping, using a medium, sneezing…repeated tries brought nothing! Looking at the rows and rows of crossed-out methods in her notebook, Minmin"s heart grew angry as she sang, "I want to transmigrate, but it"s really not easy~"
Three days later, Minmin"s notebook was confiscated by the dormitory supervisor. Her collection of suicide methods stirred the college"s mental health office to attached renewed importance to their work…
