In a whimsical turn of events, a gathering of over ten thousand survivors assembled in a football stadium for a citizen's meet-up.
On a dainty podium, Bing Shi, flanked by the police, faced the microphone. Her heart thudded like a bass drum—social anxiety wasn't her usual nemesis, but addressing such a sizable crowd proved to be an adrenaline surge beyond her norm.
"Ehm, this is going to be a long speech. Hope you've got your water bottles ready. I've got mine right here," she flashed her water bottle, taking a casual sip. "Remember, no heatstrokes, we're short on doctors."
Amused chuckles rippled through the audience.
Bing Shi raised a question, "Who else is suffering internet withdrawal? Because honestly, I'm nearly losing my sanity without it."
Unanimous nods of agreement spread like wildfire.
