The old laptop still looks brand new, a stark contrast to Yao Wei's weathered car.
As for the laptop from Mengxin City, no need to mention it.
Under the sunlight, the back of the laptop reflects a dazzling dot, which spreads from the dot in circles of halos and rays, seemingly on the solar panel's back.
It does look like it's charging.
"We finally have a device that doesn't rely on Gou anymore."
Lu Xi'an lamented, "If only your car was solar-powered too.
"When I was little, I often read science columns and sci-fi articles that talked about solar cars with rows of solar panels on top, and it felt extraordinary."
Yao Wei imagined rows of laptops atop her car, never needing fuel again, and felt a bit envious, saying, "Yes, it is really amazing."
After the laptop soaked up some sun, Lu Xi'an opened it and pressed the power button. As it lit up, the dark screen brightened.
"It works!"
Lu Xi'an felt a surge of joy.
"Yeah."
