Chapter 323 Journey Home
There was no one outside the bar in the early morning, only a few cleaners were cleaning up the mess.
Back on Earth, Zhang Heng had to spend time adapting to the gravity. Fortunately, unlike the real astronauts, his body remained in the state before entering the copy, and he did not lose bone weight or blood, and he would not feel thirsty. No vision issues either (normally farsightedness), so more of a mental adaptation.
After all, he just wandered in space for four days. Even on the moon, it only has one-sixth of the earth's gravity. However, unlike Black Sail, these minor problems can be resolved in just one or two hours.
Zhang Heng walked to the entrance of a residential area and ordered a bowl of warm soy milk, two fried dough sticks and a tea egg from a roadside breakfast stand. After he finished eating, the road became lively, and office workers nearby get out of the house.
Commuting in big cities has always been a big problem. Most people live farther away from their workplaces than Cowherd and Weaver Girl, so they have to get up early in the morning and rush to catch transportation while filling their stomachs. , There are even many people who have developed the stunt of walking and eating.
Zhang Heng also visited many cities when he was a child. Sometimes he attended academic conferences with his fairy parents, and sometimes he followed his grandfather to meet friends in other places. The cities he has been to have silently put a label on them. However, although he has studied here for a year and a half, it is still difficult to find an accurate word to summarize and describe this city.
It is like a bowl of thick soup with all the ingredients in it, mixing all kinds of weird flavors together in an almost barbaric way.
No matter how picky eater you are, you can always find a part of it that you like, but at the same time you will always have to live with another part that you don't like.
So maybe complexity is its label.
After Zhang Heng drank the last sip of soy milk, he did not compete with those office workers for public resources. He scanned the QR code to unlock a shared bicycle, and rode all the way back to school. On the way, he passed by a shopping mall. He stopped the car and went in to buy some specialties. Mainly to deal with the little ghosts who will come to the house during the Chinese New Year. As for the sweeping robot for grandpa, he has already placed an order on Xiaomi's official website.
In the following two days, nothing else happened. Zhang Heng put [Paris' Arrow] in the locker of the archery hall. As for other game props that could pass the security check, he took it with him. After saying goodbye to Ma Wei, Officially embarked on the journey home for the New Year.
Every time when the end of the year is approaching, there will be a lot of people on the train. Zhang Heng was almost squeezed through the ticket gate, put away his carry-on package, and then came to his seat according to the seat number on the ticket. However, Someone had already sat down there, and it looked like a young couple. The boy got up and said with a smile on his face that they couldn't get a seat together when they bought the tickets. He asked Zhang Heng if he could change seats, and at the same time he showed his ticket.
Zhang Heng took a look. Fortunately, the upper seat was not too far away, it was at the end of the car, so Zhang Heng agreed to the other party's request to change seats. The boy showed a look of joy on his face and thanked him repeatedly.
Because there is probably no extra space over there, Zhang Heng didn't take down the small suitcase that was already on the luggage rack. He just carried a backpack and put water glasses, cameras, game props and other valuables in it. in it.
The seat that the boy exchanged with Zhang Heng was close to the aisle. Next to him was a middle-aged man in a jacket. His mobile phone hadn't stopped since he got on the bus. Talking on the phone, discussing orders and after-sales issues, it seems to be the sales director of a certain manufacturer.
Opposite Zhang Heng is a girl who should be still studying like him. She is holding a red treasure book from New Oriental in her hand - "TOEFL Vocabulary, Root + Associative Memory Method" and is reciting silently. She doesn't look very good-looking. The eyes are small, the nose is a bit flat, and there is no flesh on the body, but it is better than being young, with a green and simple feeling.
Sitting next to her in the remaining seat was a woman slightly older than her, who was watching dramas on a tablet with headphones on.
All three looked ordinary.
Zhang Heng didn't know if it was the sequelae left by the single-player competition dungeon, which made him subconsciously pay attention to the people around him, but there are also players in the real world, and there are quite a few of them, so doing so is not a big deal .
Speaking of the battle with Jia Lai in the training camp of the Apollo Project, it was the first time he killed other players with his own hands. Zhang Heng originally thought that he would feel a little uncomfortable, but he didn't know if it was because he had experienced too many battles before. , his hands were stained with blood, although the targets were only people in the dungeon or monsters in the real world, but this time when he faced other players, his heart did not fluctuate too much.
When he blocked Jialai's mouth with sand and watched the other person suffocate to death, his emotions remained calm throughout the whole process, even... a little too calm, because this may be the first strict death he killed. "people" in the sense.
For a moment, even he himself felt a little strange to himself.
Zhang Heng didn't know whether his current situation was considered normal, because no one had ever had as rich life experience as him before, and no one told him what the situation should be like.
Noticing that someone came in front of her, the girl who recited TOEFL pulled the bag of potato chips and apples on the table towards her again twice.
Zhang Heng thanked her and sat down opposite her. Just as he put his backpack away, his phone vibrated.
There was a small 1 on Akuya's Q-version profile picture in the WeChat list, which meant that there was a new message from the other party.
Zhang Heng clicked on it.
——I'm sitting right across from you, have you seen me?
Zhang Heng frowned, and looked up at the TOEFL girl opposite. The latter was reciting the words with his head down. He felt Zhang Heng's eyes fall on his face. After observing her carefully, a flash of panic flashed in the TOEFL girl's eyes, not only did she not look up. , but the pressure was lower, and at the same time, the base of the ear was a little hot.
Reply by Zhang Heng
——If you play like this again, you will be blocked.
——Hee hee, today is a bit boring, what are you doing? Do you want to go to the haunted house together? I heard that there is a very haunted alley. Let's catch ghosts at night. ('-ω-`)
——I’m going home for the Chinese New Year, and now I’m on the train, go by yourself.
——Hey, so if you don't go home, will you accompany me?
--Won't.
Zhang Heng typed.
