The scene before him left Xu Xiangyang speechless for a long time...
What exactly is going on?
He straightened his clothes and then turned back.
He simply closed the door behind him.
He closed the door again, the one that had been impossible to open.
Xu Xiangyang then rubbed his face and opened the door to go out.
Everything went very smoothly.
Looking at the unchanged scene before him, he could no longer hold back.
"What the hell is going on?" he asked incredulously.
Outside the iron gate lies a modern society with dazzling lights and bustling activity.
Could it be that I've traveled back in time?
Xu Xiangyang rubbed his eyes again, then quickly ran over to take a look.
The street was bustling with people, still lively even at 7 pm. He often went to the large fresh food supermarket not far away.
Because he often travels here for work, he is very familiar with the surrounding area.
Xu Xiangyang remained silent for a long time, then climbed over the iron railing and jumped out.
He walked down the street, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar street. Recalling his busy days, it didn't seem like long ago, yet it felt like a century had passed.
"Grilled squid! Ten yuan a skewer!"
The roadside stalls were bustling with vendors hawking their wares, and the aromas were so authentic.
He felt his pockets; there wasn't a single penny inside.
I glanced at myself; I was still wearing a white shirt, black pants, and a pair of Warrior sneakers.
While the outfit is retro, it's not particularly unusual.
Could it be that I've traveled back in time and ended up in someone else's body?
Considering the previous explosion at the logistics port, it's impossible for anyone to survive with their body intact.
He sighed and walked along, stopping frequently, looking at the people on the street, unsure of where to go next.
Suddenly, Xu Xiangyang felt a blur before his eyes, and he found himself back in the cafeteria, whereupon the door closed in front of him.
He was a little confused. He tentatively pushed the door, but it didn't budge.
this……
What's going on?
Xu Xiangyang thought about going out, but then he reappeared in his bedroom.
It's still 1966, and it's still the same as before.
He glanced at his watch on the bedside table; only half an hour had passed.
Thinking back, I think I spent about half an hour in that space.
So does that mean he didn't go back?
Xu Xiangyang was confused. He couldn't open the door at the back of the cafeteria, so he went into the space to take a look.
The logistics port was still shrouded in gloom, and the back door of the canteen was impossible to open.
Could it be that we just had a half-hour tour of the real world?
What a mistake! I should have bought something else. That grilled squid smelled so good; I could have bought some barbecue too!
But he has no money!
"Sigh..." Xu Xiangyang sighed deeply.
I should have prepared some gold to exchange for money, since gold is the fastest way to convert it into cash over there.
Unfortunately, he had no gold.
He doesn't know if he can go out again. If he can, he must bring back some good food.
Xu Xiangyang was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night, thinking about this one thing.
So much so that when he woke up the next morning, he had no energy at all.
However, I still have to go to work; there's still a lot of things I haven't done.
Xu Xiangyang thought for a moment and then found the bugging device he had discovered some time ago.
This bugging device is only the size of a fingernail, but it's incredibly advanced!
He put the bugging device away and then went to work.
Because Xu Guangtian helped deliver the meals, he no longer needed to visit Grandma Wang and the others at the health center.
I should be able to go home tomorrow; today is the last day of my observation period.
Upon arriving at his workplace, Xu Xiangyang kept thinking about where to put the bugging device.
But I can't find a suitable opportunity. There are too many people in the workplace. If someone sees me, I'll be ruined.
"Brother Xu, you've been loitering around here all morning. What have you been doing?" Qian Wenqing asked as he followed him out for a smoke after lunch.
Two people were standing in the square, which was a rest area and quite crowded.
Xu Xiangyang had been there all morning. Hearing his words, he replied, "It's nothing. It's boring staying in the office all day, so I came out for a stroll."
It was really boring. Qian Wenqing even wanted to go out shopping, but his job wouldn't allow it.
People like Master Chen and Master Zhang can go out for a stroll whenever they want, since Xu Xiangyang and another person are at the company, so even if they need to use the car temporarily, they don't need to come back.
"Sigh, I also want to go out and play," Qian Wenqing sighed, longing for the outside world.
Xu Xiangyang rolled his eyes. Everyone was at work. Who would go out during work hours?
In this era, everyone values a secure job, so who would enjoy going out shopping? That's something only vagrants do.
"Xiao Qian, what do you think of our company?" he asked out of the blue.
Qian Wenqing blinked, thought for a moment, and said, "Our company is alright, at least the benefits are better than other companies. Take the winery for example, the drivers there work very hard, and their benefits aren't as good as ours."
In fact, most salaries are the same; it's just that the benefits vary from company to company.
Xu Xiangyang didn't want to ask that. He turned his head and asked, "Don't you think it's a problem that we're frequently being hijacked and no one cares?"
Qian Wenqing thought about it and realized that there was indeed a problem, but even if he wanted to manage it, he couldn't manage it all.
“That’s how it is now,” he sighed. “The roads to each city are very remote, and there can’t be checkpoints all the time.”
That's true. Let alone now, even in the 1980s and 90s, before surveillance, it would have been extremely difficult to control these things.
Xu Xiangyang glanced at him; this man clearly didn't understand what he was trying to say.
Never mind, it's better not to know.
Only those who know nothing are happy, so they won't feel that the world is so terrible.
He smiled and changed the subject.
When Xu Xiangyang was leaving get off work in the afternoon, he told Xu Guangtian that he would be going home late and that he didn't need to wait for him for dinner.
Xu Guangtian knew his son was busy, so he didn't ask any more questions. "Then be careful. It's dark at night and you can't see anything. Come home early."
He could only try to get the children home as early as possible; the rest was not his concern.
He knew very well that Xu Xiangyang was more capable than him, and sometimes meddling too much was unnecessary.
Xu Xiangyang smiled and nodded, "Go back now, I'll go back as soon as I'm done."
After watching Xu Guangtian leave, he followed the crowd off work and headed out.
However, he was clearly in the last batch; there weren't many people left.
A few people were leaving get off work in small groups as the sky gradually darkened.
Xu Xiangyang turned into an alley and then found a secluded spot to enter the space.
It's still early, so he plans to go get some food first.
After getting his food in the cafeteria, he paused for a moment and then looked towards the back door.
He put down the tray, then went over and pushed the door, but it remained closed.
Why did you open the door last night?
Xu Xiangyang fell into deep thought...
