recently,Some netizens posted a "sword"-shaped transportation card on social platforms, and successfully swiped the card to enter the subway gate.It triggered heated discussions among netizens. It is reported that the transportation card is an officially authorized game co-branded product, with a total length of 25.1cm, a width of 6.7cm, the thickest part 1.6cm, and the thinnest part 0.5cm.
However, the details of this "sword" are blunt and smooth. Although the material is ABS plastic, the sword head is slightly pointed.
It is worth noting that this "sword" is equipped with a "scabbard". When swiping the card, the moment you pull the "sword" out of the "scabbard" it is like unsheathing the sword.
