Li Xiao leaned back in her seat, looking up at the roof of the car.
I can clearly feel a lot of pressure on the top of my head now, as if something is covering it.
Not only is there pressure on my head, but I can also feel something pressing down on me from all around.
Li Xiao was completely confused about what was going on and could only helplessly start to let her imagination run wild.
What could be above our heads? Just clouds, the sun, and the sky.
Then, she turned to look out the window and saw a clear blue sky in the distance, without a single cloud.
After watching the scorching sun and clear skies for months, Li Xiao felt bored.
There's only the sky above us, what else could there be?
I feel like there's something she's overlooked, but it doesn't seem like there is, and I can't quite remember what it is.
Continuing to clear her mind, Li Xiao gazed at the unchanging blue sky outside the window, letting her thoughts wander with the sky.
Besides clouds, there were birds in the sky. Hmm, I've never seen those before.
And the sun, well, it's always hanging in the sky, nothing changes.
What else?
Thunder? Lightning? Rain? Snow? Hail?
These words passed through her mind casually, without paying much attention to them.
Then Li Xiao's mind wandered further: How about the four seasons? The moon? The stars?
Li Xiao felt like she had overlooked something, but she didn't know what it was, and she couldn't think of any specific direction.
She had no choice but to find out what she had been so concerned about.
How about we start looking from where we were just guessing?
And so, she started all over again from the moment she began to think about it.
It looks like clouds, sky, sun, and birds?
I thought about it for a moment, but didn't feel anything. Then I thought about it again, and it seemed like I was thinking about natural weather things like thunder and rain.
Yes, that's it, plus rain, snow, hail, and stuff like that.
She was still thinking back to what had just crossed her mind.
Just now, I seemed to sense something.
She kept ruminating on those few words.
Four seasons, weather, sun, thunder and rain...
Suddenly, an idea struck my heart like a thunderbolt.
She sat up abruptly, startling Cheng Shaolin who was beside her.
Not knowing what was wrong with her, he quickly tried to put his arm around her again, reaching out to put his arm around Li Xiao's shoulder.
"What's wrong? Don't be afraid." He patted Li Xiao's shoulder, trying to reassure her.
Li Xiao was completely unaware of what Cheng Shaolin was doing, still pondering her earlier conjecture.
If it was really as she had just thought, she immediately opened her eyes wide and her breathing became rapid.
Cheng Shaolin sensed something was wrong. What was going on? At first, he thought Li Xiao had just been frightened by a nightmare.
He was thinking about something and didn't notice whether Li Xiao was asleep or not.
Seeing Li Xiao making such a fuss, I thought she had just woken up from a dream.
Li Xiaoxin's heart was still pounding, like a drumbeat; she could hear her own heartbeat.
She abruptly turned to look out the window; the sky was still a clear blue, without a single cloud.
Will it?
There were no warning signs before the apocalypse came, so who can say for sure?
But if that's really the case, then who knows what will happen to me as I leisurely stroll along the road like this?
"Drive, drive fast, get to the main base as soon as possible. Hurry!" Li Xiao didn't care about anything else, her mind was in a panic. Right now, the most important thing was to find a place where she could settle down.
We need to find a safe and secure place with a large base as soon as possible. We absolutely cannot be stranded on the road; that would be very dangerous.
"What's wrong, Xiaoxiao?" Cheng Shaolin asked, seeing how nervous Li Xiao was.
Everyone else was surprised by her loud shout and looked at her, wondering what was wrong with Li Xiao.
Shao Jie, who was driving, was also startled and slammed on the brakes, bringing the car to a stop.
Everyone tumbled forward from the sudden stop, only managing to get back to their seats in a disheveled state once the car came to a complete stop.
"Ah, what's wrong? What happened?" Shao Jie stepped on the brakes and asked in a panic.
The others, regaining their senses, hurriedly asked, "Yeah, yeah, Xiaoxiao, what happened?"
...
Li Xiao was panting heavily, and it took her a while to suppress the panic in her heart before she said, "I... have a guess."
Since it's a conjecture, it could be wrong. Conversely, it could also be right.
"Go ahead and speak, it's alright. We'll listen." Yu Yanbin regained his composure and calmly said to Li Xiao.
Cheng Shaolin also said, "Go ahead and say it, I'm here, it's okay."
Li Xiao calmed down and then shared her guess.
“I think that kind of pressure may come from the outside, from the surroundings.”
Everyone listened quietly without asking any questions.
"I was just thinking that there was pressure on my head, and there was nothing above me except the sky. Then I realized that it might just be the sky."
At this moment, everyone was stunned. What happened to the sky? They were all confused.
"Have you ever considered that there might be other things in the sky?"
As everyone started thinking, what else could there be?
Soon, someone seemed to have thought of something and, just like Li Xiao before, suddenly raised their head.
They all opened their eyes wide, somewhat shocked.
And so, the group stared at each other with wide eyes.
A few others hadn't quite grasped the situation, like Tian Tian. She grabbed Meng Yang's arm and said, "Uncle Meng, what is it? I can't believe it."
Meng Yang frowned, somewhat uncertain, and asked, "Is that possible?"
Yu Yanbin and Cheng Shaolin thought further ahead; they could only consider the future and not wait until the time came to find a solution, otherwise they would be at a disadvantage.
They are the core figures of this team and are responsible for it.
We cannot refrain from making plans in advance simply because we are uncertain; we can only plan for the worst.
"Get going as fast as you can, don't stop along the way. Shao Jie, drive."
Shao Jie snapped out of his daze, quickly got into the driver's seat, started the engine, and drove off. The car accelerated and surged forward.
It could be a change in mood, or it could be something unexpected. Everyone felt a little flustered and couldn't help but look at Li Xiao.
Tian Tian hadn't figured it out yet, and Yu Yanbin's words made her even more nervous. She looked back and forth between the people sitting there.
"I just suddenly thought of this too. You guys think that everyone feels very depressed, could it be because of a series of warnings?"
"It's possible. Everyone is feeling it now; it could be a kind of energy leakage?"
Cheng Shaolin, with one arm around Li Xiao, was also pondering this question.
"Energy? Maybe."
Yu Yanbin looked at Cheng Shaolin, "You think so too?"
He came up and didn't answer his question, but only said, "Maybe things are really about to change."
After saying that, he looked out the car window.
"Since everyone feels something is wrong, there must be a reason. If we can't figure it out yet, there's nothing wrong with finding the base as soon as possible."
Meng Yang had thought about it for a long time; it's always good to be prepared.
