Chapter 1 Wedge 1: Traveled through time? You really shouldn’t use your phone while driving

In the emblem city of the Seris Republic on the Aldera blue planet, a gray car was driving on the provincial road.

For He Chao, who has just finished work for the day, the 30-minute drive along the expressway on his way to get off work is not only a long way home, but also a rare time to be alone.

As long as you mute your phone and play music, you can temporarily isolate yourself from the leader's notifications, colleagues' greetings, classmates' greetings, students' questions...

Although you need to concentrate on driving at this moment, the time belongs only to you

For all missed calls and unanswered text messages, you can add the sentence "I was driving just now, I didn't hear you, I'm so sorry" an hour later.

"Listeners, here you will hear" today's news on the radio,

"Today, another conflict broke out between the Southern Command of the Republic of Esun and the Uttar Pradesh Border Patrol of the Vishwa Empire. Our Ministry of Foreign Affairs calls on both sides to stop violent confrontation and maintain communication and dialogue. Siris is willing to provide necessary communication channels for the two countries.

Today, some cities in central and southern my country experienced rare thunder and lightning weather. The meteorological department called on residents of relevant cities to avoid going out as much as possible..."

"There's no big news today." He Chao turned down the volume of the radio and answered the phone. "Hello, Huihui? Are you home?"

"Yes, I just came out of school. Today the head of the department asked me to lead a competition. You know that in our vocational school, competitions are very important results." He Chao was driving while talking to his fiancée on the phone, "Have you tried on your wedding dress?"

Yesterday, someone from the wedding company said the wedding dress had arrived."

"What are you talking about? My invitations have been sent out long ago. Don't even think about chatting with your best friends at the wedding. They will be busy on that day and you won't have any time."

"For my parents' guests, you give them the invitation directly and let them invite themselves. You can't possibly know all the guests he invites."

"Stop talking, I still have to call Lao Qian. He's been busy lately and may not be able to come on our wedding day. I have to have a meal with him in advance."

He Chao finally hung up the phone and made a second call to his cellphone.

"Old Qian, what do you mean, you won't come to our brother's wedding? It's not interesting for you to do this. You can't be embarrassed about this red envelope? What do you mean by asking me? I'll come to you. Let's have a drink in advance. You say

Today or tomorrow?"

Just as He Chao was excitedly talking on the phone, almost dancing and talking about his wedding plans with Fa Xiaochang, a cement tanker truck appeared in He Chao's peripheral vision. He Chao's car was knocked out of the driveway when he was unable to dodge.

At the last moment when he closed his eyes, He Chao thought, "I really shouldn't look at my mobile phone. Playing with my mobile phone while driving will make my loved ones burst into tears."

.............

He Chao felt that he had arrived at a high-speed rail station, which should be the station where he returned home after graduating from graduate school.

I still remember that after graduating from college, I worked in several companies, drawing pictures in a design institute, inspecting construction sites, and monitoring pipelines in boiler rooms.

I worked in confusion for 3 years, then went back to school to get a master's degree, and I was over 30 years old when I graduated.

After graduation, I returned to my hometown and took the exam to become a teacher in a vocational school. I worked there for another three years before I met my Hui Hui.

The past time flew past my eyes like a magic lantern, and now I was back at the station in the Imperial Capital again. "Should I go home again here? Or should I stay in the Imperial Capital and pursue seemingly broader possibilities?"

On the vast platform, there was only He Chao himself, and there was only one train on the rails next to the platform. When he walked to the ticket gate next to the platform, the conductor was actually playing with his mobile phone. At this moment, He Chao really wanted to say: playing with mobile phones is not good for your health. But

He endured it.

"Welcome to Alivia. It has beautiful scenery, rich magic, abundant resources, and a sparse population. It is your best choice for reincarnation." A bizarre advertisement was played on the big screen next to the ticket window.

"Are cemetery advertisements just hanging at train stations these days? Don't they really feel uncomfortable?" He Chao kept complaining in his heart, but he said: "Master, hello? Are there any tickets to Huizhou?"

"

"No, where can I get a ticket back here?"

"Ah? There are no more tickets?" He Chao said, but he was thinking, "How can I be a teacher if I don't go back? How can I meet Huihui?"

"Hey, haven't I returned to my hometown yet? How do I know Huihui? Where am I?" He Chao suddenly felt conflicted. Could he have gone back to the past? Could this be in a dream?

If I don't get on the train home, where am I going?

"The train is about to leave! Get on the train quickly, otherwise there will be no train behind you~" A shout came from the train stopped on the track.

He Chao didn't even continue to think, his legs kept running to the car. As soon as he got on the carriage, the door closed and the train gradually started moving. Looking at the station heading backwards, He Chao breathed a sigh of relief.

"The train to Alivia has departed. There is 1 passenger in this train. Please make arrangements at all stations along the way." In the announcement on the platform, a female voice kept repeating

At the ticket gate, the conductor picked up the phone on the table and said, "Hello? You can't do this anymore. You can't ask for it from us just because you're short of people..."

Need new possibilities? We can’t just do it in one place!

Otherwise, we will have the Ghost Festival here in two days, and the gates of ghosts will be open at that time. If you send a special train, there will be many possibilities..."
