Playing with High-Tech in the 70s

Xia Youyou, from the year 2220, drank a bottle of water given by her parents, causing her soul to leave her body and enter a four-dimensional space. She was then caught by the river of time and ine...

Chapter 17 Magical Night

Cao An felt that tonight was truly a magical night. His world began to become sci-fi. He wondered what the future would be like, with so many magical things. There was also that light-like interface and the massage chair beneath him.

Everything completely changed his perception.

"You told me this, aren't you afraid that I might kill people and steal the treasure?"

Xia Youyou seemed to have heard a joke and laughed so hard that she couldn't breathe.

"Come on, I'll lie down and let you kill me, and see if you can snatch it away."

Cao An also felt that his question was stupid. What kind of bad guy would ask before killing someone, "Do you believe I can kill you?"

She continued, "This space has an automatic destruction device to prevent sudden murder and theft. If you kill me, the space will self-destruct, and we will die together. My parents have thought of this. Unless you die of natural causes and the space automatically detaches, there is no way to make the space that recognizes its owner leave the body."

Cao An nodded. He was just asking out of curiosity and had no intention of killing people to steal treasures. He was a person of this era. He had no ideas and could not control things in the future.

He stopped talking and flipped through the history book. He knew the early parts of the history, including the Anti-Japanese War and the Civil War. The later parts, about reform and opening up, and the return of China to China, filled him with passion. He saw China growing stronger and stronger, a feeling of immense pride. Manned rockets, space stations, even underground bases, were all unattainable in this era.

Seeing that he was reading seriously, Xia Youyou took out a blanket to cover him, and then threw a piece of land on the ground. Light shone from the land, drawing a semicircle above the two of them.

Cao An glanced at her and didn't ask any questions. He just looked at her and waited for her to speak.

"This is a barrier. It's a shame to use it to keep out mosquitoes. In the future, it can be used to protect against radiation!" He yawned and said, "You read a book. I'm going to sleep."

I originally wanted to sleep in a tent, but since he was here, it wasn’t convenient for the two of us to sleep in the tent together, so we just made do with the recliner, which was quite comfortable!

"Don't sleep here, come to my house. My mom is waiting for me to take you home." He hurriedly followed her out, saying only that he was going out to take a look and would be back soon. He looked at the time on his wristwatch. It was almost 9 o'clock. Usually, he and his mother would have gone to bed at this time.

Xia Youyou shook her head and curled up, "I'm not going. I'm very comfortable here. You can go back by yourself. I can still sleep in the tent."

"tent?"

She knew that his curiosity had returned, so she waved her hand helplessly, and something like a small house appeared out of thin air in the open space in front of them.

Cao An once again witnessed the magic of high technology. This small house can accommodate three or four people.

"This thing is called a tent? Shouldn't it be a mobile home?"

Xia Youyou was amused. "It's just a place to sleep." She stood up, put away the massage chair, opened the tent, took off her shoes, and went in. "You should go back quickly, don't let Auntie worry." Then she remembered something, "Tell me the time on your watch, I'll adjust mine." The alarm didn't go off this morning because she hadn't adjusted the time to this era. She cursed herself for being stupid. There was no internet here, so it was impossible for the time to be automatically adjusted. The funny thing was that she had set an alarm!

"Nine o'clock sharp."

It’s so late! “You should leave quickly and get some rest.” He took out his bracelet again and adjusted the time.

"Will you come to the Public Security Bureau to see me tomorrow? I promised to find you a place to live and register your household registration."

She didn't expect that he would choose to help her. She looked at him gratefully and said, "Thank you. I will go there tomorrow morning! I hope you can keep this secret for me." She was not afraid of death, but she also knew that there was an organization in this era that would study supernatural phenomena. She was very afraid that she would be taken away for dissection as a monster.

Cao An nodded, "Don't worry, I won't tell." Then he stood up and said, "You go to sleep, I'll go back first."

Xia Youyou watched him walk away, then reached out to put away the massage chair he was sitting in. She lay down in the tent, closed her eyes and thought.

This time, she took the risk. But she had no choice, did she? He had obviously been following her for a long time and had seen her transform things out of thin air. Unexpectedly, he accepted it calmly. This man was reliable. If she was mistaken, it could only be said that Cao An was too good at pretending.

On the way back, Cao An kept thinking about all the amazing things about her. He felt like he wouldn't need to sleep tonight. It was too unbelievable!

When he got home and looked at the lights in the room, he realized that his mother was still waiting for him, just as he thought. He pushed the door open and went in, "Mom."

"Didn't find her?" I've been gone for so long, could it be that I can't find her?

"I found her and settled her down. Don't worry."

"That's good, that's good. Oh!"

"I really misunderstood her this time. I thought she was a spy, so I treated her like this. I just talked to her about it."

Liu Hui was so angry that she hit him. "You little bastard, such a pitiful person, so thin, how could she be a spy?" In her early years, she had seen spies beheaded, and the fierce look in their eyes was so fierce! This little girl was thin and weak, and had a miserable life. If she was a spy, she could be the president of a small country!

"Then please help her find a house tomorrow and I'll rent it for her so she can settle down here."

"What are you still looking for? Just register her in our household registration. She'll be your sister from now on!"

Cao An was stunned. How could this be possible?

"What? You don't want to?" Liu Hui looked at him in a daze and said with a sigh, "You can't despise her! You've already checked it out. She's an orphan without parents. Just accept her into our family. Just say she's my distant sister's child and came to live with me. I've adopted her as my daughter, and she'll be your biological sister from now on!"
