Chapter 90: Disobedience
Chen Sheng shook his head slightly, and there seemed to be a residual sense of dizziness in his mind.
It's like the sequelae of weightlessness for a long time, and it's like the feeling of brain discomfort after drinking several bottles of 53 degrees of grain liquid last night and waking up.
After three or four seconds of stupefiing, he gradually eased, and then realized that he didn't know when he was standing on the main road of a street that looked somewhat familiar.
"This is your world? The cosmic tides still seem to be very strong, completely different from my world. ”
A cold voice sounded in my ears.
Turning his head, he saw Athena standing beside him, looking around with some curiosity at the moment.
“... Am I really back? ”
Chen Sheng looked around, a flash of surprise flashing in his eyes.
Indeed, everything in front of him made him familiar, this is his hometown, Lingyang City.
And this road, Chen Sheng also recognized, this is one of the routes he took before the driving escort.
In his brain, all the previous memories came flooding back, and he clearly remembered that it was here that the traffic on the road was chaotic, and then there was a horrific scene of himself and his colleagues being reduced to ashes.
He's back to where he started?
However, Chen Sheng looked around, but did not find the original escort car, let alone found any traces of damage or repair, it stands to reason that there was so much chaos on the road at that time, it must have caused some damage to the street, but now it looks intact.
There were pedestrians walking by, other cars, and there would be people on the sidewalk who were staring at him, no, no, to be precise, people looking at him.
“......”
Chen Sheng looked straight ahead of him.
A silver-white Mercedes stopped in front of him, and a strange man was standing next to the car at the moment, as if he had just come out of the driver's seat.
The man looked at this side with a strange expression, as if he was about to be angry, but froze.
He looked at Athena, then at the man, and understood.
"Let's go first."
Chen Sheng said to Athena.
A hint of helplessness rose in his heart, but a touch of happiness rose again.
Unfortunately, Athena's presence may have been a bit too much of a surprise, but fortunately, the worst conjecture in his mind didn't seem to come true.
He finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Human civilization is not dead, it is still there.
Taking advantage of the stunned man in front of him, Chen Sheng grabbed Athena's wrist, and then took her across the road and directly into an alley on the sidewalk next to him.
"Hey, wait, don't run!"
Wang Leping came back to his senses, he seemed to want to theorize, but what made him feel a little strange was that the man wearing a COS suit and the purple-haired woman, as if there was wind under his feet, just a few blinks of an eye into the crowd and the building on the other side of the street, disappeared in front of his eyes.
"What's going on..."
He muttered dissatisfiedly, and could only admit that he was unlucky, and turned around and got back into the car.
The mobile phone in his hand was still vibrating slightly, and it seemed that there was new news, but he didn't have the heart to continue driving and sending WeChat, shaking his head, he didn't know why, his mind seemed to be still parked with the stunning appearance of the purple-haired woman just now.
..........
Minutes later, the southwest neighborhood.
Linmei Garden Community is the earliest batch of old-fashioned communities built in Lingyang City, although the buildings here are relatively old, but because of the proximity to the Chengnan Park, the surrounding vegetation environment is not lost to those newly established communities in recent years.
Because of the good scenery, there is also a famous local pedestrian street, where you can eat, drink and have fun, and it is one of the most crowded areas in Lingyang City.
Standing at the entrance of the pedestrian street, Chen Sheng and Athena peeked into it.
"Where are we going?"
Athena asked.
After coming to this strange world, Chen Sheng took her around several streets before finally stopping here.
However, seeing that Chen Sheng seemed to be familiar with this place, she knew that the two of them should have successfully come to his world.
Earth in another world.
"The house I rented was over here."
Chen Sheng pointed in the direction of the Linmei Garden Community not far away.
"That's why I often come here to eat when I come back from work."
After speaking, he seemed to think of something again, paused, and said.
"You know what it means to be off work, right?"
However, when he asked, he found that Athena was looking at him with a strange look in her eyes.
"I'm not a primitive."
It took a few seconds for Athena to speak.
And what surprised Chen Sheng was that she actually spoke Huaxia.
Previously, both had been communicating in English, occasionally in Greek.
Well, the goddess of wisdom speaks Mandarin, so there shouldn't be much of a fuss.
Language proficiency was not a difficult task for Diana, let alone a goddess of wisdom who lived for thousands of years or more.
"It seems that the east of your world is developing very well, and I don't feel any war or sin. There is a very good order and peace here. ”
Athena had been observing her surroundings, and she said calmly.
"But... I felt some sadness. ”
She looked into the pedestrian street, Chen Sheng also followed her gaze, and after watching for a few seconds, he frowned faintly.
There are fewer people in the pedestrian street.
He noticed a phenomenon.
The flow of people on the street does not seem to match the daily scene in his impression.
And, from the time he had just passed a few streets, he had a faint sense that something was not quite right.
He grabbed a passing uncle.
"This grandfather, what month and day of the week is today?"
"Housheng, what did you say?"
The old man was grabbed by him, and turned his head to look at Chen Sheng tremblingly.
"I said, what day of the month is today!"
Chen Sheng asked again.
"Oh, what's the week?"
The uncle looked at him, turned his ear away, and leaned closer.
“... It's okay uncle, you better get busy first. ”
A trace of helplessness welled up on Chen Sheng's face, and he let go of the other party.
"Oh."
The uncle nodded, and then walked away.
Poof!
Chen Sheng's ears moved, and he turned his head to see Athena looking at him with a smile.
There was a hint of cunning in his eyes, just like he had when he first met her.
"Laugh with a hammer."
Chen Sheng muttered, and then stepped into the pedestrian street.
He seemed to have a purpose, and walked towards the shop that said "Class Leader's Ramen Restaurant".
Athena followed unhurriedly.
The two of them soon entered the store, which was only about seventy or eighty square meters.
As soon as he entered, Chen Sheng looked up at the hanging bell hanging on the back wall of the store.
The time shown above is 11:44.
It's noon.
But Chen Sheng glanced at the store, and the sense of disobedience lingered.
Is there only such a small number of people here for lunch?
Chen Sheng saw that there were only three customers sitting in the store.
But in the nearly 100 visits, whether it was a lunch meal or an evening meal, he had never seen less than ten people in this shop.
And the three only guests, two are eating noodles and one is playing with their mobile phones.
"Here, what do you want to eat?"
A tall figure bent over from the back kitchen of the noodle shop and walked out quickly.
However, when he saw Chen Sheng, he was stunned on the spot.
"Chen... Chen boy? ”
"Hello, squad leader Li."
Chen Sheng also saw this familiar person.
Li Yuanjun, a retired cook, has been running a noodle shop in Lingyang City for more than three years.
Seeing his acquaintances, he was in a slight trance for a moment, although from his time scale, only a few days had passed, but he felt that everything that had happened in the past few days seemed to be as long as a few years.
