Due to her parents' unexpected passing, Gu Xinyan resolutely quit her job in the big city to take care of her blind grandmother and her little brother. She returned to her hometown and inherite...
Chapter 5 People from the State
Just as he was about to say something, he saw the commander's gesture, so he quickly shut his mouth and stood silently to the side, his eyes fixed on Gu Xinyan on the screen.
"I... my name is Gu Xinyan, and I'm from Chengxi Town, Anyang City. I'm looking for the Chief because I obtained a system called 011, which is a dimensional trading system."
I was supposed to be minding the shop tonight, but suddenly I was transported to another world, specifically to the junk planet G5588 in interstellar space.
I've only been back a short while, and 011 said the next time travel is the night after tomorrow. I've thought about it for a long time, and I feel this matter is just too big, so... that's why I wanted to contact you, Commander.
I originally wanted to go to the town's police station, but I was worried that too many people would know and it would be dangerous for my family, so I asked 011 to contact you directly, sir.
Gu Xinyan tried to calm herself down before recounting everything that had happened to her that day.
After speaking, seeing that the leader opposite him did not say anything and his face was expressionless, he pondered for a moment and then spoke to 011, who was floating in mid-air.
"011, come here and greet the commander!"
011, who was still feeling uneasy, obediently moved over upon hearing this and then waved its little paw at the leader on the screen.
"Greetings, Chief. This is 011, the Dimensional Trading System. Originally, I was reluctant for the host to contact you, as I was afraid you would harm her."
But since the host insists, I can't do anything about it. What the host said is true, and the next time travel is the night after tomorrow. The return time this time is uncertain.
Commander: "..."
Lu Yunting: "........."
The two stared at the transparent kitten floating in the air on the screen, speechless for a moment. They had initially been skeptical, since time travel wasn't exactly something to be believed!
But this time, they both believed it, after all, a talking cat that was also transparent was definitely not an ordinary being.
"Gu girl, don't worry. I'll send someone to your place now. You go and get some rest. Come over with them tomorrow morning, and we'll talk about it in detail then!" The commander said to Gu Xinyan on the screen after a moment of contemplation.
"Alright! See you tomorrow, sir!"
Hearing the leader's words, Gu Xinyan nodded and then asked 011 to turn off the video call. She then obediently went to wash up and rest.
After all, what happened today had taken a toll on her energy, and she was indeed quite tired now.
The leader on this side remained silent for a long time after the screen disappeared.
Seeing this, Lu Yunting stepped forward and asked, "Commander, should I go over now?"
"Okay! Take one person with you, but don't scare the young girl. Also, make sure they're settled in after you bring them over tomorrow, and wait until I finish my meeting here," the leader said after a moment's thought.
He then waved his hand, indicating that he could leave. This matter was indeed quite significant, and he needed to think it over carefully. After all, this matter was not without its benefits for China.
This is both a crisis and an opportunity. Moreover, the little girl will be traveling through time again the night after tomorrow, so time waits for no one. He needs to arrange everything within the next day.
Seeing that his superior had fallen into deep thought again, Lu Yunting silently left the room, gave a few instructions to the soldiers on guard outside, and then left.

After waking up, Gu Xinyan couldn't help but stretch. She had tossed and turned for a long time last night before finally falling asleep, because she was so excited when she found out she would be seeing the big boss in person.
Yesterday, Grandma took my younger brother back to the countryside. I don't think they'll be back for three or four days, so she's the only one in the store right now.
No, there's an extra 011 now.
Looking at the time, it was 7:30 in the morning. Gu Xinyan didn't know when the person sent by the leader would arrive, but she should get up and wash up first. Otherwise, if she was still lying in bed when the person arrived, it would be very damaging to her image.
After washing up, I went downstairs to buy something to eat at the breakfast stall next door. But as soon as I opened the door, I was startled by the two people standing there.
Who are you?
Gu Xinyan involuntarily took a big step back, looking warily at the two people standing at the door. Anyone who opened the door and saw two guardian figures would be nervous.
"I'm sorry, Miss Gu, we startled you. We are people sent by the commander, so please don't worry!"
The man next to him glanced at the silent team leader, then quickly stepped forward and took out his work ID.
Hearing this, Gu Xinyan's tense heart calmed down a little, and then she took the work permit and looked at it carefully.
Hmm? Li Chendong from the special department?
Looking at the four big characters above, I secretly glanced at the two people. Although they weren't wearing military uniforms, their straight backs clearly indicated that they came from the military.
However, it must be said that these two are really quite handsome. No wonder netizens always say that all the handsome men have been handed over to the country. This statement is indeed true.
The two looked at the man who was about the same age as her and was showing her his ID. He had a baby face and looked somewhat cute, the kind of boyish charm, but his overall demeanor was the opposite.
The other one was the complete opposite of him, with a resolute face, sharply defined features, and a pair of very deep eyes that seemed to be able to see into people's hearts. He exuded an undeniable masculine aura.
Yes! He's her type, both cool and sweet!
Seeing Gu Xinyan stealing glances at his captain, Li Chendong couldn't help but chuckle to himself. Sure enough! No woman could resist being mesmerized by his captain's face. Look, even the girl in front of him was captivated.
It's a pity that his captain is not interested in women and is a real tough guy. The young girls might as well look at him; he's not bad-looking either.
To avoid any awkwardness, Li Chendong spoke first: "Miss Gu, we came here specifically to pick you up and take you to Kyoto!"
"Huh? Oh! Okay, shall we set off now?" Hearing his words, Gu Xinyan came back to her senses, looked away shyly, and asked Li Chendong.
“Yes, if Miss Gu is alright, we’ll set off now. The helicopter is already waiting in the west of the city,” Li Chendong replied truthfully.
