Hidden Moth-Chapter 127 - 66: To Exist Is to Be Perceived

Later, the other parents compensated with a new set of sportswear, exactly the same, even the size hadn’t changed. When He Kao wore it again, it was even smaller, so he didn’t wear it much afterwards. He washed it clean, put it away, and never threw it out.

Gao Xue’e listened with great interest, sometimes sighing repeatedly, sometimes laughing out loud.

The story was over, and the meal was finished too. Gao Xue’e stood up and said, "I’ll go change clothes. It’s getting late. In the afternoon, we need to hurry and get to work. Those two hundred materials need to be sent out quickly."

Gao Xue’e went into the room to change clothes, while He Kao sat there blinking. In fact, from the time he got up and left the room until now, he had been conducting various tests, which Gao Xue’e had not noticed.

When he opened the door from the bedroom, he saw Gao Xue’e setting the table, and the so-called Hidden Moth Space portal was right at the same location as the bedroom door.

He Kao could clearly perceive its existence, but Gao Xue’e was completely oblivious to it.

Her not seeing it was normal, but would she feel it? He Kao then closed the portal and placed it in several other locations.

Sometimes he put it next to Gao Xue’e, sometimes on the path she was walking, and finally, even where she sat to eat.

Gao Xue’e passed through the portal as if it were air, even sitting with her body partially on either side of the portal, without any sense of anything unusual.

He Kao was sure of one thing: for Gao Xue’e, this portal might as well not exist. The next series of tests gave He Kao a deeper understanding of the concept of "non-existence."

If Gao Xue’e could see him, then the portal was equivalent to not existing because even He Kao couldn’t open it!

Moving the portal and placing it in front of Gao Xue’e did not have any effect, as she couldn’t notice these operations.

But as soon as she looked at He Kao, he couldn’t open the portal, don’t ask why, he just couldn’t!

In such a situation, He Kao found he had gained another "superpower," let’s just call it a superpower, which was the ability to sense if someone was watching him.

Because when he wanted to open the portal and couldn’t, even without knowing who or how he was being watched, he realized someone was observing him.

For example, when He Kao had his back to Gao Xue’e or while moving inside the room, he knew that Gao Xue’e was always paying attention to him. Even if he was only in her peripheral vision, Gao Xue’e was keeping an eye on him.

This was a new ability, not the extraordinary perception ability he previously possessed. The extraordinary perception let him sense Gao Xue’e’s presence without looking, but it couldn’t let him know she was watching him.

What does that mean, the more you look, the more handsome he gets, and the more handsome, the more you want to look?

When Gao Xue’e was watching him, he couldn’t open the portal. Then in another situation, what if Gao Xue’e was watching the location of the portal, could he come out from inside? He Kao decided to make a somewhat risky attempt.

From Gao Xue’e’s movements, she had changed clothes and was about to come out, so He Kao quickly placed the portal at the opposite bedroom door and slipped in.

Gao Xue’e came out, but didn’t see He Kao, so she called out, "Where are you... Xiao Kao, where are you?"

Not hearing He Kao respond, Gao Xue’e even went to his bedroom to take a look. Not finding him there, she immediately panicked a bit, hurriedly turned around and went into the kitchen... 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

He Kao, inside the portal, couldn’t perceive any objects, nor could he know what was happening outside. He tried to leave but found he couldn’t open the portal; he was trapped inside.

A few seconds later, the feeling of the portal being unopenable disappeared, and he immediately returned to the outside of the portal.

He thus confirmed one thing: even if someone outside was watching the portal’s location, he couldn’t open the portal to leave.

In any case, as long as his operation of entering or leaving the portal can’t be seen by others, it also cannot be perceived by them. In this way, in the future, he needs to be cautious about entering or leaving the portal, making sure not to choose the wrong location.

If someone outside were watching the portal’s location twenty-four hours a day, it would be like trapping him inside the portal.

Since he couldn’t do what Huang Xiaopang did, opening another portal to move elsewhere, he must avoid this situation... and the weakness of the Hidden Moth must not be revealed!

Gao Xue’e came out from the kitchen, looked up to see He Kao standing in the living room, and said while holding her chest, "Where did you go just now? You scared me; I thought something had happened again."

"It’s nothing. I just went to the yard." Seeing that Gao Xue’e voice sounded teary, he quickly changed the topic, "This school uniform was said to be old-fashioned and ugly by everyone back then, but how come it looks so good when you wear it?"

"You’re annoying! I look even better in other clothes." Saying so, Gao Xue’e broke into a smile, put on her hat and mask, and said, "Can we set off now?"

He Kao: "Wait a minute, we haven’t decided how to send them out yet."

Gao Xue’e: "How do you plan to send the materials?"

He Kao: "Find a hotel, four or five-star will do, no need to check in, just call a courier to pick up the package in the lobby, the addresses were printed yesterday, just hand them to the courier.

We can both wear masks, at least with your current look, even if caught on surveillance, no one will recognize you."

Gao Xue’e: "You’ve thought about this quite thoroughly, but there’s a flaw. You have to call, now you even need to use a public account for reservations, unless you don’t use your phone and account, so whose would you use?"

He Kao: "I’ll rethink it. Even courier lockers now need a phone to scan... We can go to a courier station and just fill in any contact details for the sender."

Gao Xue’e laughed: "No need to trouble ourselves so much. We’ll go to the post office, put the letters in envelopes, stick stamps, and drop them straight in the mailbox."

He Kao: "Oh, do people still send letters like that?"

Gao Xue’e: "Of course, they do, you’re just unaware! Have you only used email and thought there are no mailboxes in the real world?

The postal system mailboxes have always been maintained, and there’s a rule to regularly collect from them. Nowadays, it’s become a popular way to deliver complaint letters... I’ve also found the addresses of network points in each district of Qi Yuan City."

He Kao: "I see! Then we’ll buy our envelopes and stamps somewhere else. As for the delivery location, to be on the safe side, let’s choose the main post office in Qi Yuan City."

This was an oversight due to a lack of experience. He Kao had never used a postal mailbox, now accustomed to sending express shipments, he subconsciously thought this outdated mailing method had been long eliminated and had put considerable thought into how to mail the materials.

Gao Xue’e, on the other hand, had some exposure to matters involving complaint letters, so she was informed and proposed a straightforward solution.
