Several villages near New Night City supply various goods and assistance specifically to travel agencies so that the guides can bring tourists in and out of the outer region.
As agreed, Gu Fan and his group arrived at one such village. They had received information containing a house number, and after some inquiries, they finally found the place.
As they entered to see the simple courtyard and old houses, it made them question if they had time-traveled into the past; everything seemed so backward.
Professor Luo, however, was unfazed. He said, "In any country, irrespective of how developed it is, there are always poor and backward places. This is nothing unusual."
Teacher Liu at his side chimed in, "In some places, they deliberately preserve their past for the sake of tourism. It's called nostalgic charm."
