In the days when He Zhuo's book was launched, similar new books were already following the trend.
Accusations of plagiarism seem more like slander from some haters or jealous netizens.
However, He Zhuo's novel indeed has some problems.
Those popular tropes and allusions indeed have "unclear origins".
Regarding this, He Zhuo has planned his response, "Um, these are part of an online universe I've created, and related anecdotes will continue to appear in future works."
"To dispel readers' doubts, I'll specifically write a special edition or something to explain the origins and meanings of those tropes!"
"Of course, if readers insist on seeing me as a time-traveling guy, or think I have a system or something, let them be happy with that!"
The more He Zhuo spoke, the more confident he felt.
He had been startled earlier, forgetting to think clearly, which led to his panic.
Once he calmed down, regaining his normal reasoning, he devised a strategy to cope.
