Chapter 304: Chapter 304 A Beautiful Day!
"Hey, look, the sky over the capital seems to have changed, how can the sky be so clear? So blue!" someone exclaimed,
talking to their friend, wanting to take a photo and post it on social media.
The sky seemed to turn blue in an instant, something never seen before. Those who found the situation unusual couldn’t help but take out their phones, wanting to post to their circles!
Of course, it wasn’t just this person thinking this way; most people on the street, including those at home who noticed the change, wanted to take a photo to share online. "My God, is this still the Imperial Capital? The sky feels as if we’re in Hainan," someone told their friend, instinctively removing the mask from their face. Since the smog seemed to have disappeared, she felt removing the mask shouldn’t be a problem. Yet, when she took it off, her eyes widened in disbelief as she took two deep breaths, exclaiming in surprise: "Wow, is this really Beijing’s air? It’s so refreshing, breathing it in makes me feel like I’m becoming immortal."
Her friend next to her didn’t believe it either and took off their mask to take a deep breath, similarly astonished at the air quality that left them speechless, feeling as if they too might become immortal.
Involuntarily, the young woman let out a contented sigh, as if moaning softly, causing bystanders to look her way. Realizing her odd behavior, she coughed into her fist and said seriously, "How did the capital’s air become so good? What’s the reason, and the smog is gone, could there be some kind of biological experiment producing lots of oxygen?"
Her friend gave her a look as if she were an idiot, saying, "A biological experiment in the capital? But I also find it strange, how could the air be so fresh? After taking two deep breaths, I feel so much more energized, I could work a whole day without feeling tired."
"Yeah, yeah, the sky is clear, the air is fresh, let’s go continue shopping," the girl said with a giggle. Since coming to work in the Imperial Capital, she had never encountered such good weather.
The capital’s sky cleared in an instant.
In fact, using the word "instant" may not be entirely accurate, because for the smog-curing bacteria to rapidly multiply and spread throughout the capital’s air, thoroughly clearing the smog, would still take some time. But for these residents, unable to perceive the slow change, the capital appeared to clear up instantly, leading them to subjectively believe it so.
Countless pedestrians noticed the change in the capital’s air. Each took disbelieving breaths, realizing not only had the air quality greatly improved, but inhaling it gave a comfortable feeling, leaving everyone marveling why such a change occurred.
Some residents in high-rise buildings naturally took photos of the capital’s sky through their floor-to-ceiling windows.
A faint layer of white clouds, clear blue sky. Coupled with the dazzling noon sun, shining through the windows, creating a special aesthetic.
Someone posted this photo online, accompanied by the caption: "The capital’s sky, I don’t know why, today is so clear, the air is so fresh, I feel ten years younger."
Within just over ten minutes, many friends gathered under his post, each commenting on his update.
What? Is this the capital’s sky? Isn’t the capital supposed to be called Wudu? How can there be such a clear sky, it feels akin to the sky we see at the seaside in Qingdao."
What kind of joke is fresh air, with so many cars in the capital and traffic jams every trip, how can the air be fresh?
Hey, big brother, your photo editing skills are too good, or is this not the capital?"
The person who posted the update, not expecting so many comments, felt a bit helpless. The capital’s sky today really was this clear, the air this fresh, could it be that you all are envious?
Looking out at the sky, feeling a bit work-weary, he went downstairs to grab lunch.
Getting in the elevator, he was surprised to find that it was also filled with discussions about today’s capital sky and air.
Hey, didn’t you all notice how beautiful the capital is today?
Indeed, I feel the air in our office is so good, did we change to a very powerful air purifier?
The elevator reached the designated floor, and after pursing his lips, he exited the elevator and headed to the cafeteria, only to find that even there, people were discussing this topic.
This was actually quite normal.
Almost everyone in the capital was now amazed at the sudden change in air quality and hoped this weather could last for several more days, as it concerned their lives.
If there were no smog every day, how great would that be?
This is something everyone has thought about, as with economic development, the floating population in the capital has increased, and after hard work, some people establish families and businesses here, making the capital increasingly crowded.
As the population grows, a series of problems apparently arise, but with rising housing prices and congestion, they could barely manage, though many were truly concerned about the smog issue.
This is one reason air purifiers sell particularly well in the capital. Everyone worries about their health, and many homeowners in the Imperial Capital even choose to have their sons or daughters live in the countryside or their hometown, fearing the impact of growing up in a smoggy environment.
However, today they found the air quality in the capital had improved significantly, and the air seemed to contain a special magic that made them feel very comfortable.
So some people began to worry again, concerned whether this situation could continue.
Many instinctively felt that such a beautiful day was unlikely to occur again. Perhaps by tomorrow, they would be facing that gray, unmasked city once again.
For those contemplating this, they couldn’t help but sigh inwardly, wishing such a day could last.
Fortunately, they were overthinking it.
