They Must Have Cheated, Right?

Jiang Fan slowly woke up.

A buzzing machine filled the hibernation pod.

The recliner, which had originally been laid flat, automatically adjusted its angle and returned to its original position.

But these were ultimately trivial matters, and Jiang Fan did not devote his attention to them.

Instead, he turned his gaze toward the holographic projection panel in front of the seat.
