There usually weren't many people in Central Park, but today was a public holiday. As soon as they stepped into the park, Qi Wu realized that the park was brighter than before with more people standing around.
"Jin Si, what's that?"
Qi Wu looked in the direction of the lake in the park. There seemed to be countless candles burning there, and it was also the place where the crowd was the most concentrated.
"If you want to know, let's go take a look."
"Alright then."
Thus, the two of them walked to the lakeside together.
People gathered by the lake in twos and threes. They seemed to be holding flower-shaped lanterns lit up by the candles within them.
They would crouch down by the lake with sad expressions and close their eyes to pray. Then, they placed the river lantern into the lake where it would float downstream with the other river lanterns.
