Communication with Tomcat had been lost for sixty hours.
Tang Yue pulled another all-nighter. He looked haggard and his eyes were bloodshot.
Tang Yue and Mai Dong had used the terrain map to expand the search from the possible locations of Tomcat's accident but found nothing. Mai Dong's solution had failed, and they had no choice but to continue the brute force search. Tang Yue transferred the images he had finished with into a directory that already had more than 3,200 files.
No one knew where Tomcat was. It had vanished mysteriously just like the Earth. No sight of it could be found. After a nap, and with the passing of time, Tang Yue wore an earpiece, faithfully waiting for a message through the communications system, but there weren't any messages, not even a comma.
