Chapter 52 Wrong Place?
Jiang Hui didn't know if she had acted impulsively or what, but when she realized it, she had already submitted an application form to the museum reception and was on her way home.

What has she been doing all this time...?

Jiang Hui's rationality told her that she was just a liberal arts student who could draw eggs worse than others, and that making delicate handicrafts like mecha was simply humiliating.

However, people are always interested in areas they are unfamiliar with, and there are often moments when they want to step out of their comfort zone.

Perhaps it was a sudden whim, but for a moment Jiang Hui didn't think about anything else. Suddenly, he felt a strong curiosity about the mechs that traversed the starry sky in countless futuristic novels, and wanted to get closer... closer to see this weapon of the era that would gradually give interstellar humans unlimited combat power.

So she went out today to participate in this event.

Although the experimental class was jointly organized by the Book Museum and the Dongbo Group, the Book Museum's financial resources and influence were not comparable to those of the large corporation. Therefore, the museum invited some well-known figures, scholars, and even professional experts from various sectors of society on the planet, and provided a large amount of materials and data. The Dongbo Group was responsible for the physical setup of the venue and other aspects.

The experimental classes were arranged in the headquarters building of Dongbo Group located on this planet.

Dongbo Group is a well-known intergalactic conglomerate involved in the manufacture of starships, interstellar spacecraft, and various automated transportation vehicles. It also has significant achievements in the field of specialized intelligent products… however, this is not Dongbo Group's most prominent industry. Currently, the group is renowned in interstellar space for manufacturing giant modular mechs. There are not many manufacturers in the entire interstellar space with the capability to produce such mechs, let alone Dongbo Group, which is among the best.

This sounds like a high-tech industry comparable to that of Earth, but far more advanced. Jiang Hui hasn't yet come into contact with this group's products in her daily life, and of course, there are many other areas she hasn't yet experienced.

The headquarters of the Dongbo Group on Planet 732 is located in the first ring, but it's quite far from the Hailusi Group, though closer to the Book Museum. Jiang Hui vaguely remembers that the museum does indeed have a considerable collection of books about mecha. So it's not hard to understand why these two seemingly unrelated organizations would join forces to hold an event.

She has been coming to the First Ring Road frequently these days, and there are no more obstacles to travel. She easily found her destination.

The Dongbo Group's building on this planet is a strangely shaped ring-shaped structure, decorated with large areas of reflective metal that shines brightly under the sunlight during the day, making it the most dazzling "star" in the area.

Jiang Hui roughly calculated the time and felt that now was probably the right time to go in, so she followed the crowd and walked confidently toward the bustling group's main gate.

Because the headquarters building looked very large from the outside, Jiang Hui didn't think about wandering around the building looking for places on her own. She naturally asked the receptionist for directions.

But... is there something strange or inappropriate about what she's wearing today?

Jiang Hui, who already felt that her appearance was no different from that of an interstellar person, was somewhat puzzled. She shouldn't have given herself away.

But why did the staff member give her such a strange look? Although it was restrained and fleeting, Jiang Hui was still very perceptive and noticed it immediately. She couldn't understand what about herself had attracted such a strange gaze. But she also knew that her experience was truly bizarre. Even in today's interstellar world where time and space have long been traversed, it was an unbelievable wonder. If she told others, probably few people would believe it, let alone actively associate it with anything else.

Having figured this out, Jiang Hui was no longer as frightened as she had been when she first arrived, worrying about the differences in her core and fearing that others would discover that her soul came from a blue planet millions of light-years away.

A person's weaknesses often emerge from a series of explanations and cover-ups. If she wants to maintain her composure, she needs to learn to be more patient, speak and act less, and pay less attention to external factors. Only by not giving others any leverage can she maintain control.

So even though she noticed that others seemed to treat her differently, Jiang Hui didn't speak up or test them. She pretended not to know and casually observed them on the way, while secretly becoming more vigilant.

Of course, she didn't think that any dangerous incidents would happen casually in this generally safe interstellar region, except for battlefields, at least not openly harming people like this. However, due to an unconscious sense of vigilance, Jiang Hui remained highly cautious.

However, nothing happened until she was led to the large council hall where the experimental class was held. The other party acted and looked normal, which made her worries seem unnecessary.

Jiang Hui politely thanked them, then boldly pushed open the door to the council hall. The noisy sounds inside rushed out, indicating a large number of people, reminding Jiang Hui of the large lecture halls she attended in university on Earth, where classes were always just as lively before they started.

Sigh, I never thought I'd be reborn as a student again.

As Jiang Hui took a few steps inside, the bright lights inside illuminated the room, making everything clearly visible. Jiang Hui, who had just entered, was no exception; her supposedly composed and confident steps were instantly disrupted, becoming somewhat disordered.

Jiang Hui suddenly understood why the receptionist had looked at her with such a strange gaze. It turned out she hadn't thought much of it; the receptionist meant no harm, but there was nothing wrong with her either.

As Jiang Hui approached, she discovered that this so-called handmade mecha class was actually a children's activity.

The conference hall was enormous; looking from the entrance, one could see a vast sea of ​​people, stretching as far as the eye could see, clearly capable of holding tens of thousands. Jiang Hui had almost never seen anything like it on Earth; only interstellar civilizations with highly advanced technology, manpower, and resources could achieve such a scale.

And that's not the main point. What's more, this place is full of children who are shorter than adults and have youthful appearances. There are all kinds of people, and even those whose height is comparable to teenagers can be clearly distinguished by their youthful expressions.

Especially the children in the front rows, when they saw Jiang Hui come in, all showed a little curiosity, their gazes somewhat similar to those of the receptionist who had led the way earlier.

So she didn't know anything and ended up in an early childhood education class? I wonder if she'd look ridiculous if she went back the way she came...
