Time Has Traces

About This Novel
After returning home from morning exercise, Jiang Chengxian habitually glanced sideways at the clock on the wall while changing his shoes. The time was half past eight, so he came back more than an hour later than usual. After more than ten years of retirement, his life has formed a routine. What time does he get up, what time does he eat, what time does he go out for morning exercise, everything is fixed and unchangeable. Of course, there are exceptions from time to time, such as morning exercise. If there is major news (including strange things) happening in the world, China, or this city that day, the partners who do the morning exercise together will start talking about it. With so many talking heads, the sea and sky are vast, everyone expresses his/her opinions and speaks freely, thus losing the concept of time. Looking up, I saw that the sun was already rising over the sea. The news that caused my late return that day was the death of the leader of the neighboring country North Korea. Although this matter has nothing to do with China and does not affect the people's eating, drinking and eating habits, it is still a bit strange. Naturally, everyone has to discuss it heatedly, and the time passes by while discussing it.
