As soon as the door was opened, a blast of cold wind rushed in, making it hard to open one's eyes.
It was pitch black outside, with only brief flashes of lightning bringing a moment of light.
Cheers could be faintly heard on the wind.
"The floodwaters have receded!"
Just as Gu Jin was about to go into the room to tell them the news, she heard the sound of a car engine approaching from afar.
