I Won a Nobel Prize, Then Returned Home to Apply for a Warehouse Job

The Nobel Prize in Physics for the new year is announced.

Chu Yun, from Xia Country, wins the prestigious award for his work on quantum mechanics.

Just as the whole world rushes to recruit him, Chu Yun resolutely returns home.

A month later, news that Chu Yun has applied for a job as a warehouse keeper shocks the world.

What could make a physicist abandon his beloved field for the dull life of a warehouse keeper?

The salary?

The stability?

Or... has he fallen into depravity?

As people around the world debate, Chu Yun opens the doors of a warehouse sealed for hundreds of years.

An old man leaning on a cane shuffles forward, his back bent.

"How many years has it been?"

"They've been here all along."

"Just sleeping."

Chu Yun looks inside the warehouse.

Countless statues lie buried beneath the dust of time.

Yet at a glance, they still look solemn and imposing.
