Chapter 201 Differences
Zhou Zheng led his men to deal with the two men, and Lin Liuyi prepared to leave.
"Where are you going?" Zhou Zheng quickly grabbed her.
"Well, since I'm already out here, I'll have some fun before going back." Even if I can't travel across borders, a domestic trip will do.
Zhou Zheng thought about it for a moment. The investigation into the kidnapping of the people at the research institute was still not complete. It might be safer to let Lin Liuyi play outside.
"Alright, Long Wu and Long Liu, you two go with her." He turned around and planned to assign two people to protect Lin Liuyi.
"No, I can manage on my own, I don't need anyone to come with me." Lin Liuyi was unhappy. How could she have fun if someone was following her around?
Now it was Zhou Zheng's turn to be unhappy. He was already furious that Lin Liuyi could be kidnapped while she was still at the research institute. What if something happened to her if she went out to play alone?
"Oh, don't you believe me? You forgot I have a cheat code." Lin Liuyi coaxed and pleaded until Zhou Zheng finally agreed.
She quickly slipped away, lest Zhou Zheng change his mind later.
As soon as Lin Liuyi left, Zhou Zheng gave Long Wu and Long Liu a wink, signaling them to follow.
It's impossible to let Lin Liuyi go out to play alone!
Lin Liuyi didn't care about that anymore. The feeling of being free was great. She took out a motorcycle from her space, another retro custom model from Princess Mingyue.
"Sit tight, get rich! I'm going to take you flying!" Lin Liuyi whistled excitedly.
"Please be aware, host, that the system has no physical form and cannot ride your motorcycle!"
"Hey, don't worry about the details, take off!" Lin Liu twisted the handlebars, and the bike roared off in an instant.
"Host, the system has alerted you that you have not obeyed traffic rules and have not worn a helmet properly!"
"I was wondering why it felt like the wind was blowing in my face! But it doesn't matter, I just love the feeling of the wind blowing in my face!"
Lin Liuyi sped along on his motorcycle, while Long Wu and Long Liu chased after him, questioning their very existence.
"Long Liu, given our speed, this shouldn't be happening!" They've been chasing for so long and haven't seen a trace of him. They even used energy; how could they not catch up with Lin Liuyi, an unofficial member?
Long Liu was more observant and noticed the tire tracks on the ground. "Expert Lin, he was riding a motorcycle!"
"Why didn't you say so sooner!" Long Wu immediately perked up. It turned out that it wasn't that the two of them were useless, but that the other side had a cheat code!
"Let's go, keep chasing her! I refuse to believe we can't catch her!"
Lin Liuyi slowly approached the town, slowing down her bike ride. She looked at this border town, a place she hadn't yet seen!
She stored the motorcycle in her spatial storage and began to leisurely stroll around the town.
The town still looks ancient, with few tourists. The cobblestone path winds and twists, like the veins of time. As Lin Liuyi walks on it, it feels as if he is walking in step with the ancients from many years ago, listening to the stories told by the stone slabs.
The houses along the roadside, with their flying eaves and brackets, and the mottled and peeling wooden doors and windows, are no longer as exquisite and elegant as they used to be, but have gained a sense of historical weight, and the patterns of flowers, birds, fish and insects are still faintly visible.
The stream in the town flows gently, its water crystal clear. Willows sway along the banks, their slender branches lightly brushing the water's surface, teasing the swimming fish.
Petals occasionally drift down, floating with the current, adding a touch of enchanting color to this lively stream.
In the distance, an ancient stone bridge spans the two banks, its mottled surface contrasting beautifully with the clear blue sky, resembling a light ink landscape painting.
The small shops along the street are arranged in a pleasing manner, their signs swaying gently in the wind.
The shop is filled with colorful tie-dyed fabrics, antique Pu'er tea cakes, and exquisite silver ornaments, exuding a rich ethnic flavor.
Under an old tree at the town's entrance, several elderly people dressed in traditional clothing sat chatting, their wrinkles revealing the gentleness and tranquility of time.
Sunlight filters through the gaps in the branches and leaves, casting a dreamlike veil over this ancient place. Time seems to stand still here, allowing one to immerse themselves in the timeless charm of this ancient town and reluctant to leave.
It was indeed a great place to relax. Lin Liuyi rested here for a day and enjoyed exploring the local customs and culture.
Of course, she also bought a lot of ethnic-style items, intending to give them to her readers.
Then she planned to move on to the next city, heading north, so that she could still make it to the ceremony.
Once she found the town's bus station, she sensed someone following her. Oh, it was Long Wu and Long Liu catching up. She decided to pretend she didn't know.
She was somewhat shocked as soon as she entered the station.
The building looks like an antique building on the outside, but it turns out to be futuristic inside.
Look at this metal dome. Its lines are smooth, and the metal reflects a cold, hard luster under the light, making it look like a giant eggshell floating in the sky.
Lin Liuyi even wondered if she had entered the wrong film set, but then she looked around and saw that everyone seemed to be used to it.
After entering the station, she held her ticket, which looked like a metal card, and the intelligent guidance system came online like a nimble elf.
The floating screen clearly displays her train number, platform, and time information, and also plans her walking route. The gentle voice control announces her walking distance in real time, ensuring that she will not get lost in this busy hub.
In the security checkpoint, the new scanner works silently, instantly penetrating luggage and clothing to accurately identify various items. As each pedestrian passes through, her belongings are automatically displayed on the screen of the security scanner.
Trying to smuggle contraband? Go ahead and try if you're not afraid of going to jail—you'll get caught every time!
In the waiting hall, solar panels embedded in the dome continuously draw energy to power the station's facilities.
The seats are ergonomically designed and automatically adjust the temperature and massage modes to relieve traveler fatigue.
The transparent OLED wall displays real-time images of landscapes and cities from around the world, making you feel as if you are at the center of the world, waiting for the next train that blends technology and speed, heading towards the infinite possibilities of the future.
Lin Liuyi quietly moved closer to Long Wu and Long Liu. "Hey, I haven't been out for so long. Is everything outside like this?"
The difference is too great. One second they are enjoying a leisurely life in an ancient town, and the next they are stepping into the future of technology.
"Isn't this all thanks to you, Expert Lin?" Long Wu whispered upon seeing this.
"I?"
Lin Liuyi had previously thought that since she had brought out so much material, the country should have seen some changes, but the research institute hadn't changed much, so she figured it might take some time before everyone could figure it out.
When the results came out, I was stunned; the outside world had already been turned upside down.
"Then why doesn't our research institute do it like that?" (Question)
"Isn't this what the experts are asking for? To remember the bitter past and appreciate the present, and to pour all the money into research funding!" Long Wu stated his reasoning.
That's a strong reason! But she!
She doesn't need to suffer!
