Features: Do you believe the Earth is a hollow sphere, with many highly civilized humans living inside it? Whether you believe it or not, many scientists strongly support this view, and it's not just hearsay. To obtain objective, fact-based information, many scientists and explorers have embarked on large-scale expeditions, and many others have proposed various different opinions and perspectives. For example, many scholars have pointed out that the Earth is a huge donut-shaped object with a cave at each pole, which serves as the entrance to the "inner world." However, after entering the cave, one must also find a tunnel to discover the path to the inner world. So, who lives inside the Earth? Some believe it's the descendants of "Atlantis," as Atlantis once sent some people into the Earth before its destruction. Others think there are goblins, fairies, and giants living in the hollow interior of the Earth. Although these ideas seem incredible, they are indeed possible, as they often can't resist the urge to come to the surface out of boredom. Surface dwellers frequently encounter traces of these creatures. Witnesses say they have seen these strange beings silently burrowing into the ground late at night. Some also believe that the underworld is inhabited by horrifying, ugly, and lecherous demons called Tylos, who deliberately bring disasters and troubles to surface dwellers and take pleasure in witnessing human suffering. Other theories are even more bizarre and varied: "The people of the underworld are vegetarians!" "The underworld is home to cannibals who abduct surface dwellers to eat them!" "They are highly evolved humans with no gender distinction, reproducing through test tubes!" Such claims are numerous, but they lack credible evidence. Therefore, to this day, everything about the people of the underworld remains one of the Earth's most mysterious enigmas.
On the weekend, Bucket Sister was reading at home when she came across the report mentioned above and couldn't help but imagine all sorts of things. She strongly felt that humans are not the only rulers of the Earth. On the surface, humans might be considered the rulers, but underground, things could be quite different. She firmly believed that there was also advanced life in the underworld and truly wanted to have a chance to make friends with them.
During lunch, her mind was still lost in the world of subterranean beings. She ate while thinking. Banana Bear noticed her distraction and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something on your mind?" Bucket Sister glanced at him and said, "Don't laugh at me if I tell you." Banana Bear smiled and nodded, "I won't." Bucket Sister asked, "Do you believe in subterranean people?" Banana Bear replied immediately, "Yes, why do you ask suddenly?"
Hearing her brother also believed, Bucket Sister became more enthusiastic and asked, "Why do you believe too?" Banana Bear said, "I just read a report that left a deep impression on me. I thought there were subterranean people, but I didn't mention it to you because I was afraid you'd laugh."
"Really?" Bucket Sister stood up and clapped her hands, saying, "What a coincidence! Tell me about it!"
