Chapter 11 Night Walk "Zhao Shuyi, what are you doing here?"...
Zhao Shuyi was completely unaware that her casual actions had changed the fate of two ordinary people.
She acts on impulse, and once she's done something, she forgets about it.
None of her previous worries came true. As she walked out of the village, she didn't feel anyone following her, and her steps became lighter.
She had already used her mind to see that the chickens and rabbits were drinking water from the stream in the space. She wondered if the rabbits that had drunk the spiritual spring water were especially delicious.
Slurp~
Just as she was thinking about spicy rabbit meat, she suddenly heard a car horn behind her and instinctively looked over.
It's no wonder she was so surprised; there are very few cars these days, and most people ride bicycles, especially on country roads like this.
She turned her head and saw that it was a military jeep.
That makes sense.
After just one glance, Zhao Shuyi turned her head back.
The jeep drove fast, leaving a trail of dust as it passed on this narrow road.
Zhao Shuyi quickly moved to the very edge.
Sure enough, a short while later, a cloud of dust rose up around her, making it almost impossible to see the road.
Zhao Shuyi covered her face for a while before she recovered.
Inside the car, the man sitting in the passenger seat was wearing a training uniform; he was tall and had a solemn expression.
The driver next to him noticed that he kept staring at the rearview mirror and laughed, "That girl is really interesting. It's rare to see someone so disgusted with our car."
The man spoke, his voice cold and deep.
"It's all dusty, who wouldn't mind?"
"I have to go to the countryside, I'll take a good shower when I get back, I feel bad for the waste too."
The man watched the figure gradually disappear into the distance in the rearview mirror without saying a word.
As Zhao Shuyi walked into the city, she wandered around and bought some things she needed.
As she approached the guesthouse, she spotted a post office across the street, and her eyes lit up.
I've come up with another way to make money through investment.
These days, stamps must be quite valuable.
Whether it's worth a try or not, stamps aren't expensive these days and they're still usable.
Zhao Shuyi went up and asked, and sure enough, there was one.
The stamps for a certain conference, which were newly released in January of this year, are painted with oil paintings and look very exquisite.
Even if it doesn't become very valuable in the future, it's still a good collectible.
After buying the stamps, she carried a small net bag back to the guesthouse.
When she returned, there was no sound from the rooms next door, so it seemed that Zheng Jingcheng and the others had not returned yet.
Zhao Shuyi locked the door and went straight into the space.
Her space now contains many things. Although the space seems to automatically arrange the items according to their type when they are brought in, this is not what Zhao Shuyi wanted.
Zhao Shuyi stood with her hands on her hips, looking at the things on the open ground.
"I wish I had a house."
I don't know if she can build a house herself.
Zhao Shuyi was getting restless.
If others can do it, why can't she?
However, building a house is no small matter. The first thing that stopped her was not the skills, which could be learned, but she was too small and weak.
She felt she needed to think things through carefully, and now...
Let's build a fence first.
The two chickens and two rabbits were now sitting obediently by the stream, looking quite comfortable.
Zhao Shuyi may not be able to build a house for herself for the time being, but building a nest for her pets is perfectly fine.
Without hesitation, Zhao Shuyi arranged the things she had brought into the house and the things she had bought in their approximate locations.
Then she went to the bamboo grove next door and cut a bamboo to make a fence. She thought that if that didn't work, building a bamboo house would be an option.
But no matter what kind of house you're building, laying the foundation should be very important, right? She knows nothing about that.
Building a fence sounds simple, but it actually takes quite a bit of work just to build one for the chicks.
Zhao Shuyi was quite satisfied with her results, and felt a sense of exhilaration, reminiscent of the infrastructure-building games she used to play.
This is her own world.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Zhao Shuyi looked down and found nothing wrong with herself, then quickly left the space and opened the door.
It's Zhu Yi.
"Comrade Zhao Shuyi, have you eaten yet?"
"We've eaten, we've eaten. What about you?"
"We haven't had any yet. We're planning to cook some noodles in the guesthouse kitchen. Would you like some more?"
"No need, I'm not hungry yet."
Zhu Yi nodded, "Okay, we'll all be in the room tonight. Come find us if you need anything. Get some rest."
Zhao Shuyi politely agreed.
They're back now, and I estimate they can go out on their own in another two hours.
Zhao Shuyi returned to her room and did not enter the space again for a while. Instead, she lay on the bed for a while, paying attention to the movements outside.
They were all soldiers, and they acted swiftly.
It seems that their meal, washing up, and cooking time probably took less than half an hour.
But Zhao Shuyi was still in no hurry to go out.
It's too early now; even if she goes out now and isn't discovered, it's not very convenient for her to act.
Before even taking any action, Zhao Shuyi was already starting to feel nervous.
She doesn't have much time or many opportunities left, so it's best to get the item today.
As time ticked by, Zhao Shuyi grew increasingly anxious.
She kept checking her watch.
Finally, when the clock struck eleven, she quietly opened the window.
These days, buildings aren't that tall. As long as there's something to pull her down, she should be able to get down.
Fortunately, her room was in the far corner, and there was probably a storage room downstairs. The window was small, so she wouldn't be seen hanging from someone's window and wouldn't be easily noticed by people in the next room.
Zhao Shuyi bought some hemp rope outside today and tied it to the bed leg so she could climb out.
This was the first time Zhao Shuyi had done something like this in both her past and present lives, and it was incredibly exciting.
She kept telling herself not to be afraid, that even if something unexpected happened, she could immediately teleport into the space, so she would definitely be fine.
Nothing uncontrollable happened; she made it downstairs without incident, then pulled up the rope and left no trace.
The streetlights on the streets in the 1960s were very dim, but that gave Zhao Shuyi a sense of familiarity.
It probably feels like the original owner grew up here.
Zhao Shuyi carefully proceeded along the route she had scouted during the day, making several turns, and finally saw the kindergarten again.
The kindergarten was quiet at that time, so quiet that Zhao Shuyi could almost hear the wind in her ears.
Zhao Shuyi quietly went to the backyard of the kindergarten, where there were many trees, making it easy to hide.
The high walls made it difficult for her to move around.
But it's not entirely without a solution.
Zhao Shuyi took out a chair tied with hemp rope, used the chair to climb over the wall, and then jumped into the kindergarten. At this point, she could hide the hemp rope and the chair without anyone noticing.
If it had been twenty years later, her approach would have been completely unworkable.
As long as there is surveillance, her use of space will be extremely difficult.
Why am I actually a little glad that I traveled to this era?
Zhao Shuyi chuckled self-deprecatingly, and without stopping, tiptoed towards her destination.
The former master bedroom is now a large classroom for the children; apart from the walls and desks, there is almost no trace of its former self.
Several portraits and slogans characteristic of this era are also hanging on the wall.
Zhao Shuyi only glanced at it and didn't look at it much; her target was the roof.
The floors here are not as low as those in the guesthouse.
Fortunately, there were still tables in the kindergarten classroom. She moved the table to the pillar in the southeast corner of the room, then climbed onto the table, put a stool on the table, and climbed onto the stool to stand on her tiptoes so that she could barely touch the roof beam.
After searching the roof beams for a while, Zhao Shuyi finally found a barely perceptible indentation about the size of a soybean. She pressed it down and heard something move, but nothing changed in the room.
I pressed it again.
Finally, she saw that the wall against the south side had moved down directly, revealing a very narrow entrance.
This is a tunnel.
Without hesitation, Zhao Shuyi quickly went downstairs.
The light was dim, and she took each step with great firmness, her heart pounding as if it were about to leap out of her chest.
After waiting downstairs, she quickly turned on her flashlight and found the items.
There were about twenty wooden crates in a basement that wasn't very big, and there was even an accordion next to the crates.
Looking at the accordion, memories flooded into Zhao Shuyi's mind.
Those were the original owner's childhood memories.
Grandpa sat in the flower-filled yard playing the accordion, while Grandma led her in dancing beside him; life was peaceful and serene.
Perhaps for the elderly, that was a time that can never be returned to, yet is one they cherish dearly.
Without having time to think too much, and without even looking at what was in those boxes, she put them all into her spatial storage.
She then quickly exited the tunnel, restored the classroom, and returned via the same route through the backyard wall.
After putting the stool and rope back into her spatial storage, Zhao Shuyi finally felt relieved.
But soon his heart started racing again.
She had to hurry back; she couldn't let Zheng Jingcheng and the others discover anything amiss.
Zhao Shuyi never dared to underestimate the protagonist in the book.
Thinking of this, she quickened her pace, but just as she turned the corner, a dark figure suddenly darted out, startling Zhao Shuyi so much that her heart jumped into her throat.
A scream was about to burst out when the person grabbed her, hid her behind a tree, and covered her mouth.
A moment later, another figure ran out of the alley.
The figure looked around and then sprinted into the alley across the street at top speed.
He probably felt that the roads on both sides were too wide to see the end of, and that the person he was chasing couldn't possibly run to either side.
Little did they know that the person hadn't run away at all.
This is truly a case of the darkest place being under the lamp.
Zhao Shuyi sighed inwardly, not daring to move.
The man behind her was very tall, almost completely enveloping her.
I definitely can't use the space right now, so how to break away from the other person becomes a problem.
Just as she was racking her brains, Zhao Shuyi smelled a faint scent of blood.
She was about to speak when she realized that her mouth was being covered by the other person.
Zhao Shuyi became nervous again.
What is this person planning to do? Could it be that he's going to kill me to silence me?
Or maybe we should just go into the space.
Anyway, there's no one else around, so he might think he's seen a ghost.
But since they're so close, won't she bring the other person into the space with her when she enters it?
If that's the case, then I'll be in real trouble.
Why hasn't the other side made a move yet?
Suddenly, the man's cold voice rang in Zhao Shuyi's ears.
"Zhao Shuyi, what are you doing here?"
