High above, at an altitude of ten thousand meters.
A Gulfstream jet, a private business aircraft, was cruising at high speed.
Through the cabin window.
Wu Jie was admiring the dazzling starry sky.
Each star, bright or dim, was like a dot of light sprinkled across the universe.
Vast! Profound!
Gazing into the cosmos, one couldn't help but feel how trivial humanity is, and how magnificent the universe is.
With a hiss.
The sound of the vacuum toilet flushing came from the restroom.
Tang Xiao walked out the door and saw Wu Jie still gazing at the galaxy.
"What are you looking at? What's so interesting about these stars everywhere?"
Wu Jie turned with a smile and asked, "Do you think there are other civilizations in the universe?"
Tang Xiao, lying down and pulling the blanket over herself, said tiredly:
"There should be, it's just that humans haven't detected them! After all, scientists say the universe has been around for over ten billion years!"
