“Mr. Jiang, you might not know this, but our world has something called the Internet. Though it can’t be seen, it covers the entire world, like… like…”
Luo Ying racked his brains, trying to describe the Internet, but soon realized that his vocabulary was lacking—he couldn’t find the right words to explain it properly. Jiang Li interrupted him.
“I know.”
“You know?”
Luo Ying’s eyes widened in surprise. Seeing Jiang Li wearing traditional robes, he had assumed the Nine Provinces was a classical, ancient world. He didn’t expect its technology to be so advanced that it would even have something like the Internet.
“It’s good that you know.”
Relieved that he didn’t need to explain further, Luo Ying sighed.
“The network still works for now. I’m thinking… maybe I should write down everything I know and post it online. If I can save one person, that’s one more life spared.”
“That’s an act of saving lives. Of course you should do it,” Jiang Li praised approvingly.
“But I’m worried… what if the government finds out and arrests me?”
