Su Ming'an immediately looked up, but there was no one in the corridor.
The dim kerosene lamp hung on the wall, and there were several desiccated corpses on the ground.
He reached out to catch Saya as she toppled towards the ground.
Her body was thin, seeming somewhat weightless. At the moment, her chest had a bloody gash, and her dress was soaked red with blood.
Blood dripped drop by drop onto the ground, staining Su Ming'an's hands with a warm stickiness that coated them fully.
The girl's eyes were barely open, the remaining light in them slowly fading.
She had been attacked to near death and left at the door of the storeroom; Su Ming'an couldn't help but suspect that the attacking Soul Clan member was targeting him.
"Rin." Saya began softly, her voice faint as a mosquito's: "It was her... the hidden Soul Clan member on the Yate Vessel is..."
"Who is it?" Su Ming'an took out a Blood Bottle and poured it on her chest, watching the wound slowly start to heal.
