After packing up and leaving the big city, I returned to my hometown, Lingqiang County. I only wanted to make a few deliveries and enjoy some peace and quiet.
Then one night, my navigation app directed me toward the dark waters under Hanyuan Bridge, and I realized that maybe my hometown had never been the quiet, ordinary county town I remembered.
The rider station manager casually handed me a handwritten note, a survival guide local delivery riders had paid for with blood, tears, and even their lives:
Under Hanyuan Bridge: There are no shops.
Night orders in Huilongchang: Best not to accept them.
Regular customers at Wangjiang Gate: Cancel the order immediately.
And there are far more strange things in Lingqiang...
