A short-tempered mom? A money-grubbing dad? A humorous trio of women were sent to the 1960s by a leaky electric kettle, bringing with them a kitchen that could infinitely replicate food and a space...
Hearing Hu Xi admit his origins in person, Jiang Shaoming thought that this matter was exactly as he thought, but now it was also a hot potato. Hu Xi's mouth was as loose as the crotch of cotton pants, and it would be a trouble wherever he went in the future.
After thinking about it, Jiang Shaoming came up with a great idea: space!
Just put Hu Xi into the space directly. This way, we don’t have to worry about him suddenly going crazy at any time, and saying that something he sees is from the future, or telling others about some big events that are about to happen in this era. If that happens, the society will be in chaos.
After deciding what to do, Jiang Shaoming was no longer in a hurry. He leisurely drank tea and chatted with Hu Xi. He didn't expect that he and Hu Xi had quite a lot of common topics.
Hu Xi first told Jiang Shaoming how his wife had framed him and led him here. He then described his time there in 2024. It was almost entirely Hu Xi himself who kept talking. Jiang Shaoming asked him if he knew of a way to return to his previous time.
Hu Xi shook his head and said no, if he had, he would have gone back long ago. Jiang Shaoming looked at Hu Xi's current state and saw that he didn't seem to be pretending. It seemed that he really couldn't go back.
Hu Xi asked Jiang Shaoming for something to eat, his stomach aching with hunger. Seeing that all the restaurants were closed and there was no food to buy, Jiang Shaoming went back to the dormitory and got him two pastries for himself, along with a cup of hot water. The pastries were definitely store-bought, a hallmark of that era, and definitely not from the space.
Hu Xi ate a few mouthfuls of it ravenously, savoring the taste of the cake while drinking hot water. He told Jiang Shaoming that he had eaten cakes like this when he was a child, and the taste was just like this.
After Hu Xi finished eating, Jiang Shaoming asked him about his future plans. Hu Xi didn't know what to do. Then Jiang Shaoming suggested that he go to his friend's military base. Well, it was the same trick of tricking people into entering the space. Although it could fool those people, Hu Xi was from the future, and the trick would naturally be exposed once Hu Xi entered the space. But Jiang Shaoming didn't care. As long as Hu Xi was in the space, there was no need to think about getting out. There was no such thing as revealing or not revealing. As long as Hu Xi didn't reveal himself outside, it was fine.
Hu Xi looked at Jiang Shaoming. He hadn't expected the police here to be so nice. He had often dealt with police before, but the difference between the police of fifty years later and the police of today was huge.
"Can you promise to let me out of here?" Hu Xi asked Jiang Shaoming.
"Yes, but the prerequisite is that you must go to my comrade's place."
"What does your comrade do?"
“Various factories.”
"What type of factory?"
"Food, textiles, and pharmaceuticals."
"With so many factories, it's considered a big deal these days. What can I do there? Would I just be a laborer?"
"There is no such thing as coolie. There have been labor laws since the founding of the new country. You can't just go and take a look, and then come back if you don't want to do it." Jiang Shaoming said very seriously, and Hu Xi was moved.
Now he really has nowhere to go, and this policeman can help him solve this problem. He can go to the factory first to get a job and then quit. He has been doing this business for nearly 30 years, but why can't he survive?
After making up his mind, he agreed. Jiang Shaoming arranged for him to stay here tonight and to arrange his identity for him tomorrow morning. When someone came to pick him up, he didn't need to ask anything and just follow them.
