"Whoosh..."
The torrential rain continued endlessly, blanketing the entire Newland City with a heavy mist of water vapor, and the occasional rumbling thunder sounded like cannon fire.
It inexplicably startled people.
From a distance, the bustling city district still shimmered with enchanting neon lights. On the overpasses, convoys of lit-up vehicles flowed incessantly. The city's landmark, the Three-Character Tower, remained brightly lit, resembling a lighthouse. At New Century Square, food trucks operated as usual, and tourists posed with umbrellas under huge star advertisements, everything seemingly as usual—lively and beautiful.
This sleepless city was like a seductive noblewoman draped in a diamond gown.
This scene continued until eight o'clock in the evening.
Above the city, amidst the thunderclouds.
