Qishan County is a small county town near barren mountains, an area that seems to have been forgotten by time. In the seventeenth year of the new century, it still maintains the appearance of the last century, with no high-rise buildings, no department stores, and no business districts.

Even the busiest streets in the county are just a dilapidated Internet café, a cottage of foreign fast food, a small hotel that can barely accommodate people, and a tattoo shop with a lot of doors.

A tall foreign man in a heavy trench coat came to the small county town today. He lifted up his collar to cover most of his face. He wears a black top hat on his head that is out of touch with the times, as if he has traveled from Dickens's world.

The man appeared in front of the tattoo shop, stood there and looked up at the sign, the Bird Cage Tattoo. A smile appeared on the foreigner's face, as if he had found the right place.

Inside the shop, the young shopkeeper Zhuoer and his friend Zhang Liang looked at the foreigner through the glass of the door, looking nervous.

"Drow, you were pretty good at English when you were in school, right? Are you vain?"

The shopkeeper looked out the window and swallowed, nodding vigorously, the little things he learned in school had already been returned to the teacher.

"To me, aliens are no different from aliens, let's pray that he will leave quickly, and he will not come in. ”

"What? don't you want this customer?" Zhang Liang glanced at the mottled decoration of the store, "Didn't you say that you want to get money to renovate the store?" Foreigners are stupid, you might be able to make a mistake. ”

"I'm a tattoo master, and I'm not engaged in telecom fraud, who am I going to hack?"

"Call Xiaoli here, hook up with the foreigner to open a room in the hotel opposite the door, and let's have an immortal jump." What do you think?"

"I think, I think Xiaoli's father can beat you to death with a stick. ”

Just as Zhuoer and Zhang Liang were sitting in the store, the foreigner who had been poking outside the door for a long time pushed open the door and entered the store with the cold wind and fallen leaves of late autumn. －

"You're Drow, aren't you?" the foreigner looked at Drow and spoke in Mandarin, "I'm your father's friend." I borrowed something from him decades ago and made an appointment to pay it back to him this year. But I couldn't find anyone else, and seeing that the time was almost up, I had to deliver it to you. If you see your father, please pass it on to me. ”

Listening to the foreigner's speech, Zhuoer and Zhang Liang looked at each other.

"You're looking for the wrong person, right?" Zhang Liang furrowed his brows, "Zhuo Er doesn't have a father at all." ”

Drow nodded and agreed, "I'm an orphan, and I don't have my parents. Are you mistaken?"

Ignoring the two of them, the foreigner took a key from his pocket and handed it to Drow. At a glance, the key was made of pure gold, the size of a woman's index finger, and it was even heavier in her hand.

Although Zhuoer didn't see the money, he was also made hot by this yellow and clear thing, and a trace of 'wrong will be wrong' thoughts rose in his heart. Before his sense of morality could overcome his greedy desires, the foreigner pushed the door open without looking back, and disappeared into the end of the street.

After the foreigner walked away, Zhang Liang shook Zhuoer's shoulder excitedly, "Look, look, I'm not wrong." Foreigners are stupid. Quick, shut down your shop, let's go to the gold shop in the city and ask. Good guy, this key is so heavy, at least half a catty, that's tens of thousands of yuan!"

Drow held the key, looking at the size of the key and the simple tooth pattern on it, it always felt familiar.

"My dad...... That guy might really know my dad......"

Seeing his friend's appearance, Zhang Liang snorted with his nose, "Recognize a fart, don't daydream, do you still want to reunite with your father?" Don't forget, you were thrown by your father in a broken suitcase at the door of the police station twenty-five years ago. If it weren't for my father's drinking too much wine when he was on duty and peeing when he went out, you would have been suffocated in the suitcase, and it was the urine that saved you. Let's go to the station, go into the city and sell this gold!"

Zhang Liang grabbed Zhuoer's old coat hanging on the hanger and dragged his friend out. Zhuoer opened his hand and asked, "Lao Zhang, what did you just say?"

"Ahh What's wrong?"

"Not that, front. ”

"I said you were suffocating in the box, and my dad peed, twenty-five years ago... What else am I talking about?"

"Yes!" Drow slapped his thigh, "That's the box!"

As the only clue to his origins, Drow has kept the leather case that contained himself as a baby, and it is well preserved. The leather case has a large broken lock, and the key hole is exactly the same size as the golden key.

"It's strange, how can such a broken box be worthy of this pure gold key?"

If something goes wrong, there must be a monster. Zhuoer excused himself to have something, closed the door early, drove away the noisy Zhang Liang, and then rushed into his room on the second floor and pulled out the big box from under the bed.

Looking at the lock that had long been broken, Drow took the key and gestured, and it seemed that the model really fit perfectly. So he nervously put the key on the lock and was about to test it, but he didn't dare to put it in. The hesitant look is like the first time that someone who loves one heart goes to bed, and I don't know if it should break the body of an innocent girl.

"What if...... If the dimensions are really exactly the same. Then my background may be settled. ”

With this in mind, Drow gritted his teeth and poked in. With a click, the keytooth pattern seemed to touch something inside the lock. The next second, something strange happened.

The old suitcase, which once contained a small baby, suddenly opened and bounced its lid like a frightened box. The space that should have been empty was filled with water out of thin air, and the water was as blue as the sea, and there were fine ripples on it. It seems that the light of the sun is still reflected, and it is dazzling, but there is no such bright light source in this room.

The encounter frightened Drow to his feet, and he took several steps back, nearly tripping over the old books piled up in the room.

There was no sign of the water in the box overflowing, but the suitcase was supposed to be not waterproof. No, even if it is filled with water, it will not be the same effect as the sea, it will not have this color, and it will not even be visible from the bottom of the box.

Just as Drow was looking at the strange and unreasonable scene inside the box, a new vision suddenly appeared above the water. A narrow wooden sailboat poked its head out of the edge of the box, slowly moved from one end to the other, and then vanished.

Seeing this scene, Drow seemed to understand a little.

"This box is a monitor! But no, it looks like it's three-dimensional?!!
