After Returning to My World, Passersby Mistook Me for an Alien and Turned Me In

In 2X58, a short video went viral. On an empty street, a meteor streaked across the sky, then hurtled toward the person filming. As they stumbled backward, the meteor exploded on the ground, scattering countless wisps of blue light. A tall figure could just barely be seen within them...

The person who filmed it later said that they had already called the police, and that the officers had arrived quickly.

That night, #Aliens# trended online.

Some people thought it might be a publicity stunt for a movie or TV series. An hour later, all related posts had disappeared from the internet, leaving everyone baffled. Even so, plenty of people in certain chat groups and forums were discussing it using all kinds of coded terms.

At that moment, Shao Qingdai sat in an empty room, looking at the person on the other side of the glass and doing her best to keep a friendly smile on her face.

The person across from her wore a uniform of some kind and regarded her, along with the square device lying by her feet, with a stern expression.

The other person: "Name!"

Shao Qingdai: "Shao Qingdai!"

The other person: "Age and place of origin!"

Shao Qingdai: "Twenty-two. Brook Galaxy, Solo Sector, Baiwei Star... Could you give me this planet's coordinates?"

The person across from her didn't answer. Just then, the door opened again, and someone came in carrying a folder. Shao Qingdai spotted the medical examination report inside and remembered how these people had drawn a vial of her blood when they brought her in.

After reading it, the newcomer furrowed their brow and looked at Shao Qingdai. Their stern face twisted into a smile. Perhaps they didn't smile often, because it looked rather sinister. "Miss, this is Blue Star, the third planet in the Solar System, on the Orion Arm of the Milky Way. Welcome here, alien!"

"Huh?" Shao Qingdai froze. "Blue Star?"

At that moment, the square device by her feet began glowing blue again. A phone, dismantled into pieces, popped out, and a holographic projection appeared. The machine spoke: "Based on my study of their communication devices, we have indeed arrived on Blue Star in year XX58. The current date is March 8, 2X58, 00:05:42."

"So!" Shao Qingdai's mouth twitched as she looked at the familiar writing all around her, then at the people watching her from across the room with some apprehension. She forced a smile. "Should I call you comrades or fellow townspeople?"

Everyone was stunned. It seemed this alien had absorbed knowledge about Blue Star incredibly quickly.

Shao Qingdai could tell what they were thinking from their eyes. She sighed and introduced herself again. "Let me start over. I'm Shao Qingdai, from XX County, XX City, XX Province. My ID number is XXXX. I transmigrated to the interstellar future, piloted mechs, and fought alien beasts and pirates. Judging by the situation, it looks like I've come back!"

And yet the locals had still turned her in as an alien.

Everyone was dumbfounded: ...
