In China, today (27th) is the last day of the official Lunar New Year holiday.
Three years after the abolition of zero corona, the ‘return war’ is unfolding.

People abandon their cars and run out of the tunnels emitting black smoke.

In a moment, the white mask turned black.
It happened when a car running through a tunnel caught fire.
Although it did not lead to large-scale casualties, the already severe congestion on the way home became longer.
On the day of the accident, China’s expressway traffic volume was 50.7 million, the highest ever.
This is because 2.1 billion people returned to the Lunar New Year Festival for the first time after the abolition of Zero Corona, doubling last year, and many people drove their cars to their hometowns due to concerns about infection.

Homecoming guests stranded on the highway get out of their cars and dance.
The land is large, but the penetration rate of electric vehicles is especially high, so there are many cases where you can endure charging 15 times.

Farmers who do not have a car ride on motorcycles for days and days.
The Chinese, who are preparing for a real daily life recovery after three years, are wrapping up the end of the long Lunar New Year holiday with a greeting saying, “Did you go home well?”
