At 7 pm that night, the first period of night study started in Qingshui First High School. A blanket of silence fell over the school after the bell except for the pitter-patter sound of rainfall. The extremely heavy downpour was a rare occurrence and was so heavy that the droplets were no longer falling down but were pouring down like a waterfall. The school was so flooded that it practically resembled an ocean!
Even at the end of the lesson, the rain did not seem to have lessened and might have even gotten heavier. Thunder and lightning graced the sky at fixed intervals with the rain forming an endless water barrier, blurring the line where the sky met the earth. The scene was reflected in the fearful eyes of the students lining the corridors as if it was flaunting the power of nature.
While it was true that Qingshui often experienced thunderstorms, it was highly uncommon for one to experience a thunderstorm this big.
