5:13 a.m.
The torrential rain reached Xin City.
Rumble——
Amid the thunder and lightning, the rain poured down.
Li Yu slowly walked to the door of the duty room, dragged a chair over, and sat under the eaves, where the rain could splash onto his trouser legs and body.
But most of the rain was blocked by the eaves. He watched as the lightning and thunder raged, and the raindrops the size of beans connected into lines.
He slowly took out a cigarette that he had always wanted to smoke but never did from his pocket.
A few threads of rain splashed onto his face, and one or two drops wet his cigarette, but he didn't care.
Click——
With a flick of the flint, the flame lit the cigarette, and wisps of white smoke rose into the air.
But a gust of wind mixed with rain scattered it away.
Whoosh——
Watching the thunder and lightning, at this moment, Li Yu's heart finally calmed down.
He wasn't afraid of the flood coming; he was afraid of the danger that had never arrived.
