Shen Xiaoyu already understood the world around her and knew what her parents meant when they spoke, but she hadn't expected them to actually massacre the village. Did that mean her parents were also…?
This year, she was thirteen years old, fully grown, and even her brother was already ten. Growing up by the seaside, they were naturally skilled swimmers.
According to the plan their parents had before they left, they intended to find a deserted island to live on for a while, waiting for the situation to calm down before returning.
After all, they had a boat and could go anywhere, but in the end, their family of four didn't reunite. Only the two siblings managed to escape.
When it was dark, they couldn't see anything. Xiaoyu, being smart, conserved her energy. She and her brother lay down to rest, covered with blankets and actually fell asleep despite the wind over the sea.
