After hanging up the phone, the faint smile on Jiang Hui's face quickly disappeared.
The surroundings were very quiet. In the distance, footsteps could be heard faintly. People were talking. From time to time, buses passed by on the track set above the sky. The planets with a strong presence in the sky were still turning quietly... This was undoubtedly a very ordinary day on this planet.
But this is not the case for Jiang Hui, a Blue Star native.
She stood in the pavilion for a while, then slowly stood up and walked towards the apartment entrance not far away.
The lobby on the first floor is as modern as ever, with white, pale blue and calm grey-brown as the base colors, and the floor, walls and ceiling are all decorated with various high-tech materials. To be honest, it's a bit hard to get used to this extremely cold and cold decoration style with some traces of mechanization and industrialization. There is no popularity at all, which makes Jiang Hui, a Chinese from a society that values relationships, very uncomfortable.
This was a constant reminder to her that she had come to a world that was completely different from the one before - and she could never go back.
There is an intelligent robot at the front desk, and behind it there are a large number of small cabinets similar to express boxes, which take up the entire wall. From what I remember, this should be the place where letters are sent.
The intelligent system detected her and politely asked her if she needed any help. Jiang Hui just looked around and naturally there was nothing to help with. She looked around for a while, then followed the sign and took the elevator to Building B and went home.
Interstellar people probably live in relatively spacious places, because they are the pioneers of the entire interstellar world, so their houses are usually built relatively spacious. Take the house where the original body lives, for example, there is a home on each floor, and even the surrounding greenery and public areas actually belong to her alone.
Building A has a larger base so there are two households on each floor. It is actually quite quiet, but Jiang Hui prefers this style.
The rooms in Building B are circular in shape. You have to get on the elevator and walk around the specially designed screens and other decorations before you can finally see the door.
It seems that the Hailus Group is really wealthy. The door they compensated for is made of better material and much thicker than the previous one, and it also has high-end wood grain. This door alone is almost enough to cover the normal repair costs. They are really rich.
Jiang Hui thought so and used Tong Kong recognition to open the door.
"Kacha." The door opened immediately.
Originally, it didn't open so quickly, because if the intelligent system was still there, it would have to check the biological data and record it in the book before it could open the door. However, now the machine core of the original intelligent system has been taken away by the Hailus Group, so there are only some intelligent automatic furniture left in the house.
This was closer to the kind of high-tech housing she knew on Blue Star—just barely within her comprehension range.
Well, her current state and mentality are more suitable for this. Being exposed to too many things that are too advanced of the times all at once really makes people feel at a loss, and unable to tell whether this is a dream or reality.
She stood at the door in a daze, her eyes blank. The door closed automatically behind her with a dull sound.
"Only those whose brain waves have completely disappeared can be considered brain dead." This sentence popped up in my mind again.
She didn't feel it because she was busy, but she felt as if a stone was pressing on her heart, and she was so depressed that she couldn't get rid of it. However, when everything stopped, the heavy things that had been pressing on her heart poured down, and she couldn't stop it.
"We're back." She said to the empty house.
No one was destined to respond to her.
She turned back to make sure the door was locked, passed through halls, rooms and corridors that were all unfamiliar, and finally came to the bedroom door at the end.
An entire wall next to the bedroom had been removed. It was originally the interface of the smart system and was now empty.
The door opened automatically when it detected the arrival of the owner, and she walked straight in. This was the only place in this home that she was familiar with.
The scene in the room was exactly the same as what she saw on the first day, except that there was no intelligent robot. The area was very large, much larger than her initial impression, about 60 square meters, the bed faced north and south, in a semi-arc, and thick curtains were hung to cover the inside tightly.
The automatic sensing row of lights is dim and the brightness is just right.
Jiang Hui stood in the room for a while, then fell headfirst onto the soft bed. This should have been a relatively comfortable and relaxing experience, but in the blink of an eye, a completely unfamiliar breath hit her, making her whole body become a little stiff.
She turned over, grabbed the soft pillow and turned it over, then covered her face with it, holding her breath until she felt a slight suffocation, and she barely felt that she was still alive.
"Oh, forget it for now, it really gives me a headache..."
The girl's mumbling sound was heard, becoming smaller and smaller, until gradually only the sound of breathing was heard.
The lights in the bedroom were also turned off in time, and the room fell into darkness.
Jiang Hui couldn't quite tell whether she was awake or dreaming. This was... her home
Did she finally go home? Was everything before just a dream
She wandered around the small house like a ghost, and in the process she came back to her senses. This kind of uncontrollable feeling of movement and thought can only be felt in dreams. Obviously, this is her dream...
Yes, on the day of the meteor shower, because of a bowl of instant noodles and a computer malfunction, she was inexplicably separated from the blue planet and went to a world in the distant starry sky that uses the interstellar calendar.
There, in a short period of time, she witnessed many technologies that were unimaginable on Blue Star.
For Jiang Hui, a Blue Star native, it was an extremely unfamiliar country. And the fact that her original body was suspected of being brain dead also made her feel heavy.
At a certain moment that she herself did not know, a soul was destroyed, and then this ghost from nowhere inherited this body, identity and everything including life.
Jiang Hui didn't want to live, but she didn't want to occupy someone else's body. She was also grateful to God and her original body for giving her a chance to live again, but she would rather return to her own world and continue her ordinary life.
Unfortunately, the original body seemed to have really disappeared, and she obviously could no longer return to her own world.
What should she do next? Jiang Hui had no idea, just like she had no idea about this dream that was a little too realistic.
Hey, who can tell her why a person cannot wake up in time when he knows he is in a dream.
If this is a dream, she should wake up quickly. She really felt that the scene before her made her, who could never return home, very uncomfortable.
She turned around the home in her dream again, and finally stopped in front of the inexplicably mutated giant computer embedded in the floor-to-ceiling window, and a trace of emotion flashed through her heart.
Even though she has changed her world, she still dreams about this injustice computer. It is obvious that she feels that she died unjustly. However, she never sees another culprit in her dreams. She feels that instant noodles also played a big role in it.
Wow, I never thought that I wouldn’t be able to eat a bite of instant noodles before I died. Working people are really miserable.
