Two days later, at the border checkpoint of a major city in China, Song Heping presented his passport and flight itinerary.
Standing at the small window, Song Heping watched the serious-faced officer inside and couldn't help but feel his heart pounding.
It had been a long time since he had been back, and Song Heping didn't know if his activities overseas would bring any trouble here.
After examining Song Heping's passport and flight itinerary, the male officer held the passport, his eyes sweeping over Song Heping several times as if to make some sort of confirmation.
Song Heping could only maintain a smile.
"You haven't been home in a while, are you coming back from Illiguo?"
The officer seemed very curious about Song Heping.
After all, the whole world knew that Illiguo was not a peaceful place at the moment.
"Yes, I had to make a living, no choice," Song Heping explained, "Just a hard-working common man."
