「The next morning.」
The sky was just beginning to lighten over the library.
Qin Yang, holding Xiaobai, came to work as usual and walked over to clock in.
In the early morning, there weren't many people in the library.
In the Area 1 rest area, many colleagues were gathered together, and the sound of whispered discussions could be heard. Qin Yang, clutching a warm meat bun, saw that there was nothing to do and went over to listen in on the commotion.
"Did you buy your plane ticket? When are you planning to leave Jianghai?"
"In two days, probably. I just applied for an extended leave. I feel like quitting my job right now..."
"The Beast Tide is almost here, Jianghai is in chaos, and the official announcement is taking forever!"
"Don't take the Second Ring Expressway when leaving the city! My aunt said it's been completely gridlocked since last night!!!"
"..."
'An official announcement?'
