They probably didn't hear me, because there was no reaction, so I knocked once more, this time louder.
- Hello?! Is there anybody here?
I first heard steps behind the door, then an Asian woman with long, tied into a ponytail, hair, and glasses, opened the door.
- Hi. How can I help you? - she asked me in English, although with a heavy accent.
- I'm Peter - I started by introducing myself. - I was in the vicinity so I decided to visit.
She got confused by what I said, since to her this didn't make any sense.
- I have some alien technology for you - I quickly added. - I don't really know what it is. It could possibly be some junk.
She moved a bit to the side, to look behind me, but there was nothing there, which led to her being even more confused.
- Is this some kind of local joke? - she asked.
- No, no, no! Look - I said, and pulled something from my vault, which completely surprised her. - See?
