   "The rainwater is so sticky and uncomfortable..." Her sigh-like murmur carried a strange resonance, like the low murmur of a siren on a moonlit reef, seeping deep into his eardrums. At the same time, that strange, cold fragrance, like a white rose blooming deep in a graveyard, suddenly became exceptionally strong and rich, almost instantly overpowering the bloody and putrid stench permeating the dock. The girl leaned closer with an oppressive aura, and Lan Ming couldn't help but bend slightly, his back pressed against a huge pile of oak barrels that reeked of rotten wood and cheap liquor. He felt like a weak freshman being bullied in a dark corner by arrogant upperclassmen in an academy. The icy touch and dangerous aura emanating from her sent shivers down his spine. "Now..." Her breath brushed against his earlobe, "Do you see clearly now?" The girl's thumb casually brushed across the cut on the corner of his lip, where an ice pick had pierced his skin and was oozing blood. The beads of blood on his fingertips, in the dim light, resembled newly ripened, poisonous berries.
