CHAPTER-113

Alex continues to reside in the hospital ward, where he patiently waits for the sound of human civilization to reverberate here. After making his request ten days ago, Alex still has not received a response. Alex's ward was visited ten days later by a young man who was described as being tall, very strong, and having very obvious Western characteristics.

"Hello Alex, "Hello, my name is Frank and I'm the commander-in-chief of the Comet Impact Project. I'm also the scientific advisor for the Scientific Research Department." The young man's friendly smile disarmed those around him and made them feel as if they were being carried away by a gentle breeze. Alex gave Frank's extended hand only a passing glance before remaining silent and not responding to his gesture.
