As night deepened, radiant streaks of light slashed across the sky — the Perseid meteor shower had arrived, marking its debut performance in the northern hemisphere.

At first, there were only one or two, but gradually, more and more meteors wove through the sky like fireworks, bursting forth in their most dazzling moments.

Witnessing this grand and splendid spectacle, Xia Nuo and Fang You couldn't help but sit up from the flat expanse of lawn, craning their necks to gaze up at the glittering starry sky.

By now the sky had darkened, but the bright campfire revealed that there were quite a few astronomy enthusiasts nearby, their cheers rising and falling in waves. Fang You, too, was caught up in this excited atmosphere, staring at the brilliant Milky Way.

As time passed, the frequency of the meteors increased, arriving from different directions until, at last, they fell like rain with trailing tails streaking across the firmament.
