After the rain.
Midnight, the long street.
The streetlights glowed dim and warm.
From time to time, cars sped by.
Some people with rich nightlife laughed as they strolled slowly down the street.
With a flash.
Three figures appeared on the street.
Wu Xiaode leaned against the wall, taking a deep breath.
"We're back," he murmured.
"Finally back," Xia Huilan said with lingering fear.
"Sister, I need to rest a bit," Xia Ni said.
"Let's head to an alley, I'll put you back in the suitcase and find a place with a socket to charge you," Xia Huilan proposed.
"Charge? Xia Ni actually needs to be charged?" Wu Xiaode exclaimed in surprise.
"She's compatible with many types of energy refills, from solar to electric to nuclear energy—frankly, she's just being clingy with me," Xia Huilan said.
Having said that, she pulled Xia Ni into a nearby alley.
Wu Xiaode suddenly remembered something and hurriedly leapt atop a wall to gaze at the large tree.
