Reborn in the Hong Kong entertainment industry in the 1980s
Chapter 1 Silver Sky
A violent storm raged, with thunder and lightning.
In Longkou Village, a coastal village in Baogang City, a girl in her early teens is struggling to pry open the wooden bars nailed to the window of a six-story building on the fifth floor, using a stick she took off from a wooden bed.
This is her only way out. If she can't escape from here, she will be forced to work as a prostitute tomorrow.
With the sound of thunder and lightning, a gap was finally pried open in a dilapidated section of the fence.
The girl threw away the stick and tried to break it with her hands, not giving up even when her fingers were cut and bleeding.
Finally, they managed to pry open a hole that she could crawl through, and she climbed out.
Thunder roared, and the rain poured down harder and harder.
Flashes of lightning illuminated the dark night sky.
The girl clung to the window, head bowed, her dangling feet searching for a foothold in the flash of electricity.
With one foot on the protruding part of the water pipe connection, and the other foot stepping down, just as she was about to step on a protruding brick, her foot slipped on the water pipe. Unable to maintain her balance, she lost control and fell from the fifth floor.
Just then, a loud clap of thunder drowned out the sound of the girl falling onto the concrete.
The rain grew heavier and heavier, falling on the cement ground and flowing into small streams.
The stream washed away the blood on the ground and carried it far away.
The girl lay on her back on the concrete ground, covered in blood. Her eyes stared wide-eyed, unfocused, perhaps at the stormy night sky, or perhaps in the direction of her hometown.
Lightning tore through the dark night sky like a spider web, and the thunderous roar sounded like the opening of a crack in the sky.
The girl, who had stopped breathing, suddenly blinked, and a strange blue light flashed across her eyes in the lightning.
The girl's body, which had been cold, gradually warmed up, and the blood that had flowed all over the ground returned to her body in a strange way.
Even the blood that had been washed away by the rain flowed back onto the girl.
The broken bones and ruptured organs were miraculously put back together, and there was no trace of injury on his body.
The girl blinked again, her expression gradually returning. She looked at the strange house and the strange local architecture in the distance through the lightning, filled with confusion.
She rolled over, landing on all fours, elbows bent, stretched out a long yawn, and shook her body as if trying to shake off the water droplets.
She crawled forward lightly and gracefully, seemingly nonchalant, yet exuding a bewitching allure.
As if she had thought of something, she slowly stood up and took a few awkward steps.
With her legs finally able to move smoothly, the girl breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Finally out! I was so suffocated!"
She was originally a fox spirit who had cultivated herself into human form. After developing a desire to live a carefree life in the mortal world, she went there to enjoy herself. However, she didn't enjoy herself for more than a few days before being captured by a Taoist priest with profound magical powers, forced back into her original form, and sealed beneath a giant mountain.
This seal has stood for countless years.
Finally, today, the seal cracked, and by chance, her soul entered the body of this girl who had just died.
The girl's memories had not completely faded, and Yin Xiao learned about her origins after reading them.
She was originally an orphan from a remote mountain village in mainland China, with no relatives or support. A month ago, her distant cousin, who had smuggled herself to Hong Kong, returned dressed in gold and silver, saying she would take people to Hong Kong to work, where they could earn five hundred yuan a month.
The entire family in the village earned less than 100 yuan a year, but they could earn 500 yuan a month working in the port city. The villagers went crazy and begged this distant cousin to take them to the port city.
But my distant cousin said the place of work was a restaurant that only hired female waitresses, and they had to be young and pretty.
After this selection process, five girls were chosen, and the girl was one of them.
The girl, carrying her dreams, endured many hardships and finally smuggled herself into the port city. Little did she expect that what awaited her wasn't a waitress job paying 500 yuan a month, but a prostitute.
To paraphrase a local from Hong Kong, they're prostitutes.
The girl refused, was beaten, and went hungry for two days. Finally, she found a chance to run away tonight, but unexpectedly, she died.
After reading the girl's memories, Yin Xiao swayed as she walked towards the village's phone booth.
The girl never gave up on escaping and kept searching for information in the vicinity. She learned that there was a phone booth at a nearby intersection and that the emergency number at the phone booth was free.
After his superior was promoted, Inspector Stevens was particularly eager to be promoted to the position of Senior Inspector. He has been working extra hard lately and often works overtime until late at night.
Upon hearing the alarm, he immediately led his team to Longkou Village.
Upon arriving at the location described by the caller, Steven, wearing a raincoat, got out of the police car, looked around, and finally spotted the girl leaning against the phone booth.
Just as Steven was about to say hello, the girl came out of the phone booth.
In the dark night, a torrential downpour fell. The slender girl's clothes clung to her body as she swayed her hips gracefully as she approached.
Lightning flashed behind the girl, making her face appear even paler, almost deathly pale.
His eyes were deeper than the night, and upon closer inspection, they even revealed a strange bluish hue.
Steven's heart skipped a beat. Darkness, a girl, a bluish light—could he be seeing a ghost?
Upon closer inspection, the girl's pupil color appeared normal.
Just as he was hesitating, the girl asked in broken Cantonese, "Are you a police officer?"
"Did you call the police?" Steven, who already knew from the phone call that the girl had been tricked into coming to Hong Kong, asked in broken Mandarin.
“It’s me.” Yin Xiao pointed out the house where she was imprisoned.
The police surrounded the house, stormed in, and rescued all the girls who were being held captive.
Just as they were about to arrange for Yin Xiao to be with the rescued girls, Yin Xiao found Steven, who was handling the aftermath.
"Officer, am I doing a good deed by calling the police?"
“Yes, the police station will reward you with ten thousand dollars. With this money, you can live well when you return to the mainland.” Steven thought for a moment and said in broken Mandarin, “In the mainland, ten thousand dollars is considered a ten-thousand-yuan household. You can be a ten-thousand-yuan household when you go back.”
Yin Xiao didn't want to be sent back. She came to the human world to enjoy happiness, not to farm.
In the girl's memory, the port city was more prosperous and more fun.
"I called the police and did a good deed, can't you give me a Gangcheng ID card?"
“Of course not,” Steven refused.
"Isn't the credit enough?" Yin Xiao walked gracefully to Steven. "If I reported them for smuggling and found out what they were smuggling for you, wouldn't that be a great achievement?"
Steven's heart skipped a beat, as if he saw a glimmer of hope for a promotion. "You knew they were smuggling?"
"If they can smuggle goods, it wouldn't be surprising if they smuggled other things too, would it?"
"Where is the thing?"
Yin Xiao chuckled softly and stretched lazily. "Do you have an ID card?"
“Yes.” Steven said without hesitation, “As long as the value of what they’re smuggling is high enough, your contribution will be significant enough. I can vouch for you and make you a proud citizen of the port city.”
