The little female is incredibly sweet and soft, healing the five evil beasts right from the start.

Chapter 68 Black Rain
Jiang Mian never expected that what she had just said casually to avoid something else happening later would actually happen in the next second.

Looking out through the airport's transparent glass, you can see the sky gradually thickening, the wind gathering, and the sand, stones, and withered grass on the ground being swept up. Even through the glass enclosure, you can almost hear the howling wind outside.

Soon after, black rain suddenly poured down from the sky. The wind whipped the black rain into a frenzy, and the black rain lashed against the airport's glass dome and crashed to the ground, instantly soaking it and slowly turning it into a shallow black lake.

"In this weather, we can't go back." Li Yan said calmly, his gaze fixed on the outside of the airport.

Jiang Mian naturally knew that there was no going back.

“Let’s pay another hour of star coins and wait and see,” Jiang Mian said after a moment’s thought. “Let’s see if we can stop after an hour.”

"This rain will last for three days," Li Yan said after glancing at the sky.

Jiang Mian:!
She turned to look at Li Yan and quietly asked, "Are you sure?"

“Probably.” Li Yan paused, his gaze shifting to Jiang Mian’s face, and uttered only these two words softly.

"Then let's pay for one day's worth of star coins first." Jiang Mian still trusted Li Yan.

Li Yan had no objection to Jiang Mian's approach.

Jiang Mian glanced around and quickly pulled Li Yan to a spot against the wall to wait: "Let's wait here for now."

Li Yan's gaze swept over Jiang Mian's hand, which was holding his. The hand was indeed very soft and white. He couldn't help but gently squeeze back his rough palm. His voice was slightly hoarse: "Okay."

The next second, Jiang Mian released his hand, like a fish slipping through his palm, leaving only ripples like a flickering tail, disturbing the calm of the lake surface.

Li Yan's heart was indeed unsettled, and his palms felt somewhat numb.

Outside the airport, polluted rain was pouring down relentlessly, and howling winds made the airport's glass canopy tremble slightly.

Jiang Mian squatted down against the wall, glanced at the outside of the airport, and then looked away.

Because of the rain, the surrounding air seemed even cooler.

Moreover, the airport staff did not seem to have any intention of adjusting the temperature system. The airport was already cold, and the temperature of the surrounding air dropped sharply after it rained outside.

Jiang Mian hurriedly took out a down jacket from the hub space and wrapped herself up, looking like a dumpling leaning against the wall.

She felt like she was there to survive.

In the harsh weather of Exile Star, without shelter, it's truly difficult to survive.

The black rainwater clearly carried pollutants; if you accidentally came into contact with it, your body might experience abnormal changes or become ill.

Jiang Mian hid by the wall and used her personal computer. She found that the airport signal was particularly good and smooth, without any lag.

Chi Lin messaged her again: Sister, it's raining. Are you stuck at the airport and can't get back? Are you okay?

Chi Lin: Sister, remember to look for me next time you go to get something. I'll go with you; I'd be happy to help you.

Chi Lin: Sister, I miss you so much.

Chi Lin: Sister, please talk to me!

……

This guy kept messaging her after she left White City.

Jiang Mian told him that she and Li Yan had come to the airport to pick up their things.

This guy continued to message her every few minutes.

Jiang Mian simply replied, "It's nothing, don't bother me."

She then ignored the messages Chi Lin sent her.

Jiang Mian looked at Li Yan, who was still standing, and glanced at the still heavy rain and strong wind, and said, "Li Yan, why don't you sit down and rest for a while?"

Doesn't he get tired of standing for so long?
Li Yan glanced at Jiang Mian, then faced Jiang Mian and sat cross-legged on the ground.

Jiang Mian paused, said nothing, and continued to look down at his personal terminal. How boring. Let me publish another article: Medicinal K element extractable from black rain containing pollutants.

Li Yan stared at her for a while, noticing that the woman was looking at her personal computer with extreme concentration. He didn't know what she was looking at, but he had no intention of prying into other people's privacy, so he quickly looked away and also lowered his eyes to access his own personal computer.

Before long, he saw an article published on Yunwang by Bu Mian, a user he was following.

Li Yan clicked in, immediately paid to unlock it, and after quickly watching it, he sent a message to Bu Mian.

Yan Ri: It just so happens that it's raining polluted black rain here. Do you need some? I'll collect some for you.

When Jiang Mian saw the message, she paused slightly and replied, "What a coincidence, it's raining black rain here too. I'm not short of black rain."

Scorching Sun: The black rain here is 95% concentrated.

The concentration of polluted black rain varies from planet to planet, and naturally, the more concentrated the black rain, the more medicinal elements can be extracted from it.

When Jiang Mian saw this message, she subconsciously glanced at the black rain outside the glass dome. It was as thick as ink, and it was more like ink was falling than rain.

In her experience, the black rain falling outside now is between 93% and 96% thick.

Sleepless: The density of the black rain here is also about 93% to 96%.

Li Yan's gaze fell on this sentence, and he quickly stood up, scanning the airport hall with his eyes.

Many of the people playing with the quantum computer cannot be identified.

Li Yan's eyes flickered slightly as he continued replying to the other party on the cloud network.

Hot day: It will definitely be cold if it rains, remember to wear warm clothes.

Sleepless: Of course, I wore it.

Li Yan's gaze instantly swept past several people who weren't wearing thick clothes.

He continued sending messages.

On a hot day: Down jackets should be warmer than cotton-padded coats.

Sleepless: That's right.

Li Yan eliminated a few more people.

Yan Ri: I've got lightning here.

Sleepless: It's only raining here, but there's no lightning.

Li Yan's gaze finally settled on a man and a woman in a corner, a shadowy corner where they wouldn't notice the flashes of lightning outside.

At this moment, Li Yan paused. After all this time, he seemed to still not know whether Bu Mian was a woman or a man.

He assumed the other person was a man.

But then he stared at the last woman and man left in the selection process and began to reflect: Could the one who couldn't sleep be a woman?

The real sleepless one, Jiang Mian, was squatting against the wall next to him, looking down at her personal terminal, chatting with netizens in a normal, casual manner.

Yan Ri: It's stopped raining here, has it stopped raining where you are?
At this moment, someone who is truly sleepless will subconsciously look up and glance outside.

Jiang Mian did indeed look up and glance outside.

Sleepless: I haven't stopped here.

Yunwang's Sleepless has already replied, which means he must have checked the rain situation outside.

However, Li Yan noticed that neither the man nor the woman in the corner looked up to look outside.

Li Yan frowned. The corner didn't have much of a sense of rain; he would have to look outside to determine if it was still raining.
