Chapter 494: 31 December Incident: The Beginning

Three years ago, 31st of December

The sky was bright, and the people in the city were busy with their daily lives. The streets were crowded because it was lunchtime. This was also the peak hour for crimes because of the lack of security. However, this would never stop citizens from going out as they still had to go through their daily lives.

"Sis, I want to play in the park, do you want to come with me?" The thirteen-year-old Laura asked excitedly.

Kanae smiled. Today was her fourteenth birthday.

"I want to wait here."

Laura grinned. "Well, it's your birthday, so mom and dad will surely bring you a surprise."

"I think they'll just bring me a cake."

Laura rolled her eyes. "Sis, your mind is truly only filled with food."

Kanae laughed. The best thing about birthdays was eating the cake that she normally couldn't eat. It was the only thing that she always looked forward to on her birthday.

"I'm hungry."
