Chapter 33: Finally Touched the Mobile Phone and Computer Again (Seeking Recommendations, Seeking Favorites)
After a week in the shelter, Chen Xin finally waited for the moment when the light bulb stopped flickering. He quickly opened the iron box and took out the mobile phone, laptop, and game console inside, hastily tearing off the foil paper.
Eagerly switching them on one after another, Chen Xin finally once again felt the happiness brought by technology.
For modern humans, mobile phones have long been an indispensable part of life. Even without the internet and mobile signals, a smartphone can still provide many services.
A variety of fancy and complex apps may not seem significant, but if you observe carefully, you will notice these apps have already permeated all aspects of our lives.
Just like Chen Xin used to spend half an hour on his phone every morning after waking up and before going to bed, not to browse anything specific or chat with anyone, just out of a compulsive habit, he had to tap on every app installed on his phone.
Even now, without a network signal, the first thing Chen Xin did after charging and powering on his phone was instinctively to open each app, hoping to see any new messages.
However, no signal means no signal. Even if Chen Xin browsed every app, all the messages were still from a week ago, the last one almost exclusively being news about the failed interception mission and the meteor crashing into Blue Planet.
Silently staring at the last piece of news on his phone, after a long while, Chen Xin sighed deeply, feeling a bit dejected.
Because this news signified the end of the brilliant civilization of humanity’s past, ushering them into a new era filled with hardships and obstacles.
One could even say that this news sounded the trumpet ending humanity’s era of splendor and brilliance, and now humanity will struggle to survive in the long polar night.
