A flash of lightning tore through the dark sky, and the study room was instantly brightened, and then returned to normal. A deafening thunder roared, as if it was right above the head, shaking the window frames and making the lights on the ceiling shake violently.
This thunder was so big and so rare that everyone in the room was frightened and their faces turned pale. At this time, the old man finally closed the document and slowly raised his head.
"They're all here!"
The people in the room complained in their hearts, "Don't you know whether we are here or not?" They have been standing for more than two hours. However, they dared not show it, but stood straight with their chests puffed out reflexively. Although none of them were soldiers, the old man had walked out of the war. When they were not in the same room, they could do whatever they wanted, but in front of the old man, they had to behave properly, sitting and standing properly, otherwise he would scold them.
The old man glanced at everyone, stood up with his hands on the table, slowly walked to the window, looked at the cloudy sky outside, and was silent for a long time before speaking.
