TIN 8
The goods coming across the sea all pass through the hands of the 4HAE Group. Even the behind-the-scenes manipulations that have not yet been openly revealed would be well-known to those who are well-informed about that side's news. For that reason, Theo, who is standing in front of me, must also be aware of the manipulations. "'Even a country'...Does he have any self-awareness?" Theo let out a hollow laugh for a moment, as if finding it unbelievable. It seemed like he was asking if I understood how…-

TIN 7
"Ah, this one..." The boss's face showed clear distress, as if he wished he could hide me away at that very moment. I understood. After losing his temper and beating me, the aftermath must have left him in an awkward position. With the comment about sloppy item management, presenting me as an item had become awkward. He had been planning to sell me all along, but now he had single-handedly ruined everything. "This one is... not for sale." The boss had no choice but to hastily backtrack. Even…-

"This isn't a problem that can be solved just by selling you off! Huh?" The boss shouted so loudly that the veins in his neck bulged. Every time he spoke, a slap followed, and before I could even swallow the blood, more excruciating pain came rushing in. I clenched my teeth reflexively, but who knows, my teeth might be loose by the time this was over. "Boss." Smack! Just as another slap hit and I staggered, Lingling cautiously approached. The boss paused and turned to her, and Lingling gently…-

"He asked if I wanted to go with him, and I said no." I suppose I should be thankful that I'm not yet considered "merchandise" to be sold here. If I were, I would have no choice in the matter, but at least I could make a show of declining the proposal. Furthermore, Ling-Ling mentioned that when Wang Wei first inquired about the price, the boss had quoted an outrageously high amount. Claiming that I wasn't for sale and that I was too valuable, it seemed like he was just waiting for the right…-

"Phew." Standing in front of the ornate entrance, I took a moment to fix my appearance. I double-checked the nametag that Lingling had fixed, and lightly shook off the cigarette smell from my hair. It would be troublesome if I was mistaken for using drugs. "I've brought the liquor you ordered." I knocked lightly on the door. There was no response from inside, but I gently turned the doorknob and opened the door. The room was filled with a thick haze of smoke, with a stronger smell than Lingling's…-

TIN 1
There were things that come to mind when I close my eyes. The scorching sun, the shimmering ripples that seem to break, the sound of crashing waves, and the pungent smell of seawater mixed with humid air. The events of that day when ordinary things were suddenly turned upside down for me. '...What is this?' I remember the moment when a beam of light seeped into the pitch-black darkness. My shoulders, crammed into a narrow box, ached, but the space was too tight for even a small groan to escape. My…-
