Also known as: 化整归零

Hua Zheng Gui Ling is a visual novel, where "you" can move (but not make significant choices) because it uses RPG Maker. It starts with the protag bumping into his pink-haired classmate (who looks unnecessarily young and has the middle-second syndrome) in a hurry to school. His job would be done the moment he sends her to the school hospital, but then he decides to go on a date with her the next day. And things only get crazier from here...
This is one of those games where looking at the CGs is more worth the time than playing the game itself. According to the dev, at least.

Unused Graphics
icon/图标.png - A proper icon for the game. The final game just uses RPG Maker MV's default icon.
| Early (img/characters/像素2.png) |
|---|
| Final (img/characters/像素3.png) |
An unused character sprite sheet, supposedly an early version of Zero's. The 1st character in it carried over to the actual character sprite sheet for Zero, though still unused. (Yes, the sprites as-is are that low quality.)
| Used | Unused |
|---|---|
img/characters/医生老板.png contains an unused copy of the school nurse's sprite aside Guojiang's.
img/pictures/妹害羞.png - Zero's "younger sister" persona with a shy expression.
img/pictures/cg5黑.png - cg5.png with a black background. Was probably meant to appear right before Zero's "younger sister" persona snaps and reveals the second-biggest plot twist of the game.
img/pictures/cg74哭.png - cg74.png with tears running down from Zero's eyes.
Unused Text
"Day 2" prompt
| Text | Translation |
|---|---|
第二天 |
Day 2 |
This text would display in the duplicate of the protagonist's bedroom for day 2 (ID 8). However, due to a programming error (checking for the wrong switch), it's never displayed.
Item Text
Items have names and descriptions that can't be ever seen, due to the item menu being disabled for some reason.
| ID | Name | Description | Name (translation) | Description (translation) | Notes |

Unused Audio
"Capo Productions - 4u" exists but is never played.
The following unused duplicate music files exist in audio/se:
- "Capo Productions - Quiet Storm"

- "Capo Productions - 4u"
A unused copy of "Mili - Outro" exists in audio/bgm.
Leftover Audio Metadata
For all BGMs except Dungeon1 (those are all "borrowed"[1]), metadata is preserved. In their MP3 variants, two fields contain data that seems to be from NetEase Cloud Music's desktop client (the "163 key" is used by it to identity songs[3]).
| Name | Content |
|---|---|
| COMMENT | 163 key(Don't modify):<encrypted data> |
| ENCODING SETTINGS | Lavf57.25.100 |
In the first streams of their OGG variants (a Theora "video" containing the song's album art), the comment field says:
Media (e.g. label side of CD)
audio/bgs/5628.mp3, a stock sound effect used as a school bell, contains the following metadata, which indicates it was taken from China Webmaster's "Webmaster's Assets" sub-site - specifically, here.

 | This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: There's also an RPG Maker VX project. Check if this is actually introduced by 大白Neko's (supposed) repack (which is likely one of the only easily accessible copies of the game). |
A lot of seemly standard stuff for new RPG Maker MV projects, such as enemies, weapons, skills, classes, and some items, were not removed from the game at all despite being practically useless (though the names of some of them are blanked).
The map "上学路上" ("On the Way to School") uses "Town2" as its BGM, which doesn't exist.
These aren't surprising, considering the dev's inexperience in game dev.
