I Became the Cute One in the Troubleshooter Squad

Most people tended to think of spring—a season when most flowers began to bloom—as warm.

That was because it was the time when grass, dormant all winter, began to grow again, and new life was conceived.

But contrary to that common assumption, spring was actually rather cold.

First of all, it took quite a while for the ground—chilled to the core all winter long—to warm up again.

And once spring arrived, people naturally started dressing much more lightly than they did in winter.

Put on something thin and light because the weather seemed warm, only for the cold wind to come slicing through the gaps in your clothes?

No matter how strong your body was, you’d be setting yourself up perfectly for catching a cold.

In fact, the temperature could be warm for a moment, then suddenly plummet below freezing.

There was a reason people said spring was just an extension of winter.

“Well, another reason might be that it’s hard to really feel spring anymore, what with climate change making summers and winters longer.”

Still, one saving grace in this world was that there were at least some viable solutions.

Thanks to advances in science, carbon capture technology had progressed enough to be considered practical.
