"Let me go. I just want to go back and see my mother. I owe her so much..." The voice came from the dark water dungeon, sounding eerie like a ghost.
The water prison exuded a cold, putrid stench, and where the water rippled, a pair of dim eyes could be faintly seen on the surface.
A series of almost breathless gasps followed as he spoke, swallowing hard.
By the light streaming in from the wooden door, one could vaguely see a figure, thin as a shadow, leaning against a dark pillar, huddled in the dimly lit water prison.
Her wet hair floated on the surface of the water, her head held high listlessly, revealing a pale face. Ripples spread across the water, revealing a trembling figure beneath.
"Bang!" If she hadn't spoken and licked her dry lips, probably no one would have thought she was still alive.
There seemed to be no other figures around her; she was all alone, soaking in the dark water prison, with only her neck and above exposed.
At that moment, it seemed that no one heard her speak, and no one paid any attention to him.
"Little sister, Xiaoli, I couldn't protect you, and I even hurt you. I'm so sorry..." It turned out that the person sitting in the water dungeon was Su Mei. Unexpectedly, she was now experiencing the same fate as Su Li. Although her words were unclear, Su Mei seemed to have a mind that had never been clear before. She murmured, deeply repenting. Perhaps only now did she truly understand that what she had pursued in the past was what she should have discarded most. However, going back to the past was now utterly impossible.
All the regrets may be buried in this putrid water dungeon...
"Squeak!" She heard the sound of the wooden door opening, followed by a gust of cold air. A dark shadow appeared before her, its body twisting and turning, splashing water. It stopped in front of her and did not move any further.
"Who's there? Take me away, I need to leave this place." He tried to raise his hand, but found that it was numb from being submerged in water and he couldn't lift it at all.
"You'd better not go out like this, you'll scare people." The voice was gentle, but it carried a sinister undertone.
“You won’t succeed, she’s not me,”
"That's why we left you here." The sinister voice continued, "Perhaps one day you'll come in handy. We didn't expect her to be more difficult to deal with than we thought, otherwise, you would have been dead long ago."
"No, she won't save me. I've broken her heart. Let me die, just let me die quickly..." She had wanted to go out just a moment ago, but now she was determined to die.
A black snake swam into the water and coiled around Su Mei. Normally, Su Mei would have panicked. But this time, she didn't even glance at it; perhaps she was too weak, and simply let the snake coil around her body…
"Wouldn't you be useless if you died? You can live a more valuable life. I've already suggested to the boss that we make some changes to you, so you can stand with me on the same side and become true sisters."
The voice was eerie and cold, and as soon as it finished speaking, it "whooshed" out of the open door of the water prison and quickly disappeared.
"Who, who are you? What are you saying? Come back, Wan, Wan'er, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry..." Finally unable to hold back any longer, she turned to face the light at the doorway. She was so thin that she was almost skin and bones, and her bulging eyes were terrifying...
