Bang—
The mist-filled sewer manhole cover was pried open.
A figure crawled out of the sewer, stepping onto the damp cobblestone road.
Sea water falling like rain made the grey-black streets resemble late autumn, surrounding areas were deserted, a few silhouettes passed by at the distant intersection.
In the rain, the distant burning flames formed a haze, the alarm echoes in the air.
A sharp whistle accompanied by chaotic footsteps suddenly sounded, a squad of police pursued a thief clutching jewels that kept falling.
As the police picking up stolen goods gradually left, Lu Li emerged from the shadows of the alley, gazing at their departing figures.
The police were overwhelmed dealing with the unrest erupting everywhere in the Vena Ice-Free Port.
Heading in the opposite direction of their departure, Lu Li observed people leisurely walking on broad streets where the harbor could be seen, as if the chaos wasn't related to them.
