But there was no sign of the living, not a single one.
There was only darkness, a deathly silence, and the vague outlines of buildings.
Was this a fish market, or a Ghost Market?
"Heave, heave, heave!"
In the midst of darkness, in the silence, the sound of panting became exceptionally clear.
Qing, who had come running, looked at the fish market in complete disarray, empty of people, her heart sinking continuously.
Had the fish market always looked like this?
Where was Doctor Mo? Was Doctor Mo still here?
What on earth had happened, how could things have turned out this way?
The girl's mind was filled with confusion.
But the faint breathing sound behind her bolstered her resolve.
"Go to the apothecary first. Doctor Mo must still be there."
It was self-deception, but at this point, there was no other choice. Qing gritted her teeth and carried her brother on her back, rushing toward the apothecary.
