New Year's Spring Outing

New Year's Spring Outing

The end of the year was the coldest time of all. The Fatty said that holding the New Year's party every year was just too cold. Last year, 007 caught a chill and spent three days lying in bed.

So he decided to hold this year's New Year's party during the day.

But the Fatty was reluctant to give up the chance for everyone to watch the stars at night.

"The sky, oh, is so deep, so blue. The stars, oh, are so many, so bright. The moon, oh, is so round, so furry... Hey, Doctor, don't go! I haven't finished yet."

In short, to keep everyone from catching a chill at this year's party, the Fatty had specifically moved it to the daytime.

Though "Spring Festival" and "spring outing" shared a word, the two didn't really have anything to do with each other. Given the temperature, "winter outing" would have been more appropriate.

But the Fatty insisted that "spring outing" sounded warmer and happier than "winter outing," so he named the New Year's Day activity "New Year's Spring Outing."

Liu Ruyan said that the outing needed a codename, too. It sounded like a secret rendezvous from a spy movie, not a relaxing spring outing at all.

This was Ghost Valley's first time taking part in an event like this, so he was particularly careful and cautious.

From the day the Fatty announced the "New Year's Spring Outing" event, Ghost Valley insisted on using that codename to refer to the outing.

Gu Mian often heard him solemnly discussing with Hao Laoshi how many days remained until the "New Year's Spring Outing" and what preparations they needed to make for it.

Hao Laoshi was more easygoing than Ghost Valley. He suggested they relax and not take it
