Chapter 4, Begin

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

It is very important, um, let me think about how to explain it better

"No problem." Wei Jia'an then remembered and asked, "I have always been curious; the language you speak should not be from our world, right? Why does it seem that I can understand it, and it also seems that you can understand what I am saying?"

It can be done with just a small spell ... ... Wait, I will need your help again, as I no longer have much magical energy left. I need to cast another spell to fully master the language of your world.

It is not a magical tool, but a mobile phone

One of the road exits leads to the Public Security Bureau. He contemplated taking that road, thinking he could ask the police for assistance, but ultimately it was just a fleeting thought. Vela mentioned that she once was an invincible knight of the empire, a Valkyrie of the Dark Empire, and a general. In the presence of such beings, it seems the police would be of little use, as they possess the power to disregard the rules. Looking at her current state, it appears that even walking is a challenge, and she is not so heartless after all.

From the Information Industry Park to the Second Ring Road, Wei Jia'an knows two routes

It is not a matter of unwillingness, but rather an inability; the issues of capability and attitude are two different matters. One's performance should not be too obvious. Wei Jia'an continued, "The meaning of a single room with facilities is that one room is paired with a kitchen and a bathroom, which is just right for one person to live in. The current issue is that the room I live in is really a bit small, very dirty and messy. Is it acceptable to live in such a place? Also, there is only one bed... Of course, I can just sleep on the floor. The current issue is that the room I live in is really a bit small, very dirty and messy. Is it acceptable to live in such a place? Also, there is only one bed... Of course, I can just sleep on the floor. In any case, after all, I am a man; does it matter?" He appeared severely injured, yet his demeanor was imposing; sometimes he found it difficult to regard her as a victim.

What are they all looking at us for in such a strange manner

"You want me to explain how to drive, but I can't articulate it clearly at the moment. The engine is responsible for converting fuel into kinetic energy, while the transmission system is responsible for delivering that power to the wheels. In any case, it's not some magical drive; there is no magic in our world." Wei Jia'an hesitated for a moment as he spoke. He had never encountered anything mysterious before, but does not knowing something mean it does not exist? Now that beings from another world have appeared, it signifies that anything is possible, it is just that he was previously unaware.

Whether it is the Pisces jade pendant, the cat-faced old lady, or the wild man of Shennongjia, they might all be real; it is just that the authorities intentionally conceal this to prevent public panic.

Is that the giant steel statue

I see you have been holding it; is it important? What is it used for?

Walk up from the basement. The first floor is the storefront, locked with an iron gate. The second floor has only one room, the door is open and the light is on; it is a large room that has been rented out as a training class. It seems that it used to be for children's education, but now it has turned into a guzheng training class, with unpleasant guzheng sounds coming out every day. Even during the noon when I prepare to take a nap, it is noisy, and it continues at night, driving me crazy. Sometimes when I lose a game, I get quite annoyed and really want to shout, "Enough already!"

Even during the noon when I prepare to take a nap, it is noisy, and it continues at night, driving me crazy. Sometimes when I lose a game, I get quite annoyed and really want to shout, "Enough already!" More than once, I have dark thoughts about what would happen if I played some strange sounds from my own little movie, like "mm-hmm, ah-hah," as a form of retaliation. I think about it, but I definitely wouldn't do it.

No problem

Perhaps it can still be salvaged, but it must be done with utmost caution. Wei Jia'an paused, truly reluctant to give up.

Why stop

Walking towards the rental apartment, the cars, streetlights, the neon lights of the tall buildings glowing in the evening, the construction cranes, the mobile phones, and the televisions; Vera, coming from another world, does not understand many things, truly a hundred thousand whys. Wei Jia'an explains patiently, a level of patience he has never shown before.

What do you want to ask

There is another road where the exit has been unfinished for many years, but the community has recently been completed. Due to its relatively good geographical location, I had once considered purchasing a property there, but ultimately decided against it because it was a small developer. Fortunately, I did not buy, as I later learned that the greenery there is poor, which is somewhat disappointing. Taking that road is quite convenient; after passing the intersection of the Second Ring Road, you arrive at the urban village where I live.

It shouldn't be the case. How could such a thing happen to oneself? If one day beings from another world were to appear in this world, it would not be entirely unbelievable. However, if they were to appear right beside me... From birth until now, for over twenty years, I have never encountered anything particularly special. I have always believed that I should live an ordinary and mundane life. As a child, I did indeed dream of becoming a scientist, but once I reached middle school and learned a little more, I no longer held onto such unrealistic ideas.

Wei Jia'an walked ahead, glancing back at that moment. The cosplayer followed behind, looking around curiously... What cosplayer? She is the real deal. Now I understand how she truly exists; her name is Vera. Her full name is certainly not like that, and since she didn't mention it, there is no need to ask, as it is of no great consequence.

"Well, perhaps, but after all, this is our world," Wei Jia'an said. "Your attire resembles the knightly armor of medieval Europe in our world... Medieval European knights did not dress like this. Such exquisite armor, shimmering with light, exudes an overwhelming presence at just a glance, more akin to the weaponry found in fantasy works."

In the end, he chose the relatively closer route. As he walked along the road, despite the passage of time, Wei Jia'an still felt his mind in disarray, accompanied by a sense of unreality, as if he were in a different world.

It is of no concern; in urgent matters, one must be flexible. As long as there is a place to stay, I do not mind the rest, though I certainly hope you do not engage in any strange actions. Food is also not an issue; during this recent period of evading pursuers, I have eaten everything, whether it be insects or half-rotten fruit. Any normal food will suffice.

There are not many vehicles in the Information Industry Park. Once you walk out of the Information Industry Park to the intersection of the Second Ring Road, there are many more vehicles. Wei Jia'an stood under the tree, signaling for Vera to stop as well

Vera gazed at the bustling traffic, having spent most of her childhood living in a rural manor, although there were also residences in the city. The prosperous streets of the city were filled with carriages, yet it was her first time witnessing such a multitude of vehicles, all moving at such speed, seemingly powered by magical means rather than by draft animals. She said, "In addition to helping me recover from my injuries, I hope you can also share with me the knowledge necessary to live in this world."

I understand. What about other types of power?" Out of the corner of her eye, Vera glanced to the side. "What is that?"

First of all, I absolutely keep my promises," Wei Jia'an emphasized, pausing for a moment, "There is nothing wrong to say; that is reality. In our world, I am just a small person, an ordinary citizen. My hometown is in the countryside, and I work in the urban area, with a very ordinary job and a low salary. Therefore, I rent a place in the urban village, which is just a small studio apartment.

Wei Jia'an smiled helplessly, realizing that his struggles were in vain. However, the good news was that the other party seemed likely to leave as soon as they recovered a bit. For some reason, he felt a sense of relief, even if it meant that he would face irreparable consequences in the future. There was nothing he could do; he wanted to refuse.

"Wait a moment, it is a red light now." He briefly explained the traffic rules, such as stopping at red lights and going at green lights

The green light has not yet arrived, and Vela gazes at the flow of traffic. She is still somewhat concerned and asks, "Those cars, they don't seem to be powered by magic, do they?"

There is a question: a crisis is also an opportunity, and this is one's own chance. For a person like me, being able to connect with such existence seems to bring some strength. The future is uncertain; it could lead to a deep abyss, but it could also lead to the pinnacle. When one is poor, aspirations are limited, and when a horse is thin, its mane grows long. I have never had much of a goal. Compared to the coexistence of benefits and risks, it is better not to wade into muddy waters. My family conditions are decent, and I have an incredibly adorable younger sister, so there is really no need to push myself so hard.

"I suddenly thought of a question," Wei Jia'an said

To survive, one must first survive, desperately grasping at a glimmer of hope, even if it is something so precious. Fortunately, no matter how valuable that thing is, it is of no use to oneself; one has never needed such external possessions. Living with a man is irrelevant. Vela said: "Shelter and food. I do not need any medicine; ordinary medicine is of no use to me, and you certainly do not have any precious medicine. My injuries are very severe right now, and time is of the essence. Once I recover a little, I will find another way." I do not need any medicine; ordinary medicine is of no use to me, and you certainly do not have any precious medicine. My injuries are very severe right now, and time is of the essence. Once I recover a little, I will find another way.

The implication in Wei Jia'an's words is that the place where I live is not worthy of you, so you should go find someone else: "Moreover, food is an issue. I don't have the money to provide delicacies, I can only offer ordinary food. I wonder if you can get used to it? Speaking of which, my cooking skills are quite good." I feel like I might be a bit cold-blooded.

So it has come to this point, let us be optimistic, the long-awaited exciting cohabitation life has begun

Then what is that magical artifact you are holding?

During this time, Vera's appearance, clad in black armor and covered in blood, naturally drew a crowd, and some people promptly took out their phones to take pictures without hesitation. Wei Jia'an, witnessing this scene, did not dwell on feelings of regret but thought to himself that he had been overly concerned at that moment, insisting on striking up a conversation when it would have sufficed to simply take a photo.

Wei Jia'an is truly not making things up. He was busy playing in high school and did not get into a good university. It might have been better if he had gone to a big city, but after graduation, he returned to his hometown and could only find an ordinary job. Speaking of the reason for returning to his hometown, the most important one is that his mother insisted he come back. She firmly believes that if her son works and settles down in another place, he would rarely return home, which would be no different from losing a son.

"No need." She refused, "In my opinion, your attire is even stranger."

Entering the alley, he stood in front of a residential building. The side facing the road had a storefront that was inaccessible, so he could only enter through a small door at the back of the house and go up to the basement. He used his access card to open the iron gate, and upon entering, he found himself in a dark basement. Wei Jia'an stamped his foot heavily, and the dark basement was instantly illuminated. He clearly saw Vera become alert for a moment. It was just a motion-sensor light, and he couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

"Because your outfit is quite strange," Wei Jia'an said as he looked at Vera, "Let me help you a bit."

In front is the urban village, Wei Jia'an stands at the fork in the road, calling out to Vera, who is looking up at the enormous billboard: "This way"

"Is there something going on?" Vela withdrew her gaze from the tall building by the roadside and noticed Wei Jia'an waiting ahead.

Wei Jia'an followed Vera's gaze and looked over there, where there was a construction site. He said: "You mean that? That is an excavator, also known as a digger, which is a type of vehicle. Further back, the tall one is a tower crane; they are all machines used for building houses on construction sites"

The room he rented is on the third floor, and he arrived quickly. Wei Jia'an stood in front of the door, took out the key from his pocket, and unlocked the door

She spoke. The blood at the corners of her mouth had been wiped clean, and she appeared to exude an air of aloof elegance
