Six days remained until the end of the month.
It was night.
In the bleak night sky, a crescent moon hung suspended.
Inside the bedroom, a gracefully dressed host on the LCD TV was broadcasting the news.
The living room lights weren’t on, but with the faint glow from the TV, a blurry silhouette could be seen.
The heating was on, raising the temperature of the already pitch-dark bedroom by several degrees.
Within what was originally a metal cage for animals, a young girl with a slightly baby-faced complexion quietly curled up.
Under the faint light, the curves of her nascent and developing body beneath her clothes were faintly visible.
Xu Yinsheng slowly woke up in this environment. Her lips were cracked, and her stomach was incredibly hungry.
There was a faint ringing in her ears, and the TV host seemed to be talking about a villa fire, no survivors…
“Where am I?”
Xu Yinsheng collected herself and looked around blankly.
She tried to sit up, but her head bumped against several thumb-sized bars.
The metal cage meant for animals was too narrow for her sixteen or seventeen-year-old body.
Lying down, her legs couldn’t straighten; she could only curl up.
Sitting, her neck couldn’t straighten either.
Much less could she stand upright in this cage.
