Whoa. That's some serious Engrish right there.
The AC evaporator coil drains could be plugged. Your new windshield (I think) could have been poorly installed.
And if your carpets were wet, then it will take quite a while for the water to all leave.

It is water and not coolant, right? One of the pix looks a bit blue.

If it's water, take a look under the driver side wiper motor for a hole where the throttle cable would go through the firewall into the cabin. It should have a little plastic cap plugged in. On my wagon, which always had drive-by-wire, that cap was removed for some reason and I was getting a ridiculous amount of water collecting under the carpets. At one point, we pulled 5 gallons of water just out of the driver side rear footwell, and it turns out there was quite a bit more under the front footwell that had spilled over to fill up the rear. Worth a check at least.

Update that water I think was older residual left over - as of today no NEW water zero and I tested top down no leaks - so what I saw dripping out was older water- removed one more drain plug on rear floor to help
