He instantly knew something was wrong.
But the contract was already signed and the terms were very favorable to Ceruland.

After all, if the island were open to the public, Ceruland would not necessarily be able to get their hands on its resources.
Glenn asked, “Curtis, how is Quinlyn doing?”
Glenn had been talking for a long time, but he didn’t get to see Quinlyn.
Curtis replied, “She is playing with sand by the sea. Kids love that, you know.”
Glenn was silent for a few seconds and then he said, “Do you think I would believe it?”
Curtis said, “Believe it or not.”
Curtis spread his hands, obviously not going to give up.
Glenn had no choice but to hurry to Jelasica to discuss with others after receiving a fax.
Outside the warship, on the beach, Quinlyn was indeed digging the sand, but not for fun.
She had been digging a hole all day.
Others offered to help but she refused them all.
Finally, she dug a hole next to the greenery, big enough for two people to lie down in. She then gently placed Xena inside it.
In her files, it was recorded that Xena said she loved this sea the most. The fluorescent algae at night and the Milky Way were
the most beautiful scenery she had ever seen.
So Quinlyn didn’t plan to bury her elsewhere.

The winter wind howled with a little bit biting chill.
Quinlyn’s tiny face was covered in sweat after she finished everything.
She carefully made a tombstone using a wooden board and positioned it perfectly facing the sea.
Quinlyn said, “Xena, I don’t know what you like. I can only bury you here.
“From now on, you will always be accompanied by the sea and the stars.”
Their encounter was brief, lasting no more than a month. But their entanglement spanned several years.
She became Xena’s obsession and her motivation to live. Even hatred was better than nothing.
The victims on the island were leaving, and people came to thank her one after another, including the little girl.
The girl said, “Quinlyn, I’m going back to Eagle Island.”
She was adopted by a white woman who had also lost her loved ones, which meant the start of a new life.
Originally of Cerulandic and Eagle Islandic descent, she could have returned to Ceruland to live with her grandpa.
But the end wasn’t so bad.

The little girl said, “I want to give you this ring”
She stepped forward and placed a silver ring in Quinlyn’s palm. “Grandpa woke up once during your treatment.
“He was very grateful to you. He said he didn’t have anything, only this to repay your kindness”

Quinlyn pursed her lips, remembering the image of the old man immersed in the icy water. She didn’t want to take the ring
The next second, the little girl leaned in and hugged Quinlyn. “Quinlyn, I don’t blame you. Don’t blame yourself.

“Choosing to come here was wrong in the first place. You gave us a chance to turn back. Thank you.”
Quinlyn put her arms around her. The two slender girls clung together in the sea breeze.
The little girl said, “So promise me you’ll live a good life, okay?”
Facing the little girl, who had also suffered misfortune and matured early, Quinlyn finally felt relieved.
Quinlyn nodded. “Okay.”
Curtis agreed not to make the island public and consented to her plan on the condition that she did not plead guilty.
She also promised not to do anything to harm Ceruland in her lifetime.
On the third day, after everything was settled, the warship set sail again.
Warren asked, “We can finally go home. Are you happy?”
He walked to the deck to join the little girl to enjoy the breeze.
Quinlyn watched the plank slowly disappear from sight, and nodded.
Warren knew it was a lie.
He said, “You’re too honest.”
He sighed, reached out to pull up the hood to block the wind from her face, and looked out at the sea.
He said, “The world is not black and white, and many things are not right or wrong.
“You’re still young so it might be cruel for you to be exposed to these things so early, but this is reality.”
Unlike Curtis, the Wilson family, and the boys, Warren, who also grew up displaced, chose to tell her the truth.
He continued, “You will encounter more of these kinds of things in the future.
“Not everyone can be like you, maintain kindness while facing a tragic fate.
“Making a mistake once is understandable.

“The most important thing is that if the rope snaps, everything will spiral out of control.
“That’s the scariest past.”
Quinlyn listened to him quietly, then looked up at him. “So that agreement is like a rope Curtis tied around my neck.”
Warren murmured, “Well.”
He touched his nose, a little caught off guard by her ability to make inferences so quickly.

Warren said, “Hmm, I guess you could say that.”
Quinlyn nodded, lowering her head to look at her hands.
Indeed, if she wanted to kill anyone, it would be too easy.
Warren said, “But I believe you won’t.”

Warren smiled at her, “Your reluctance to hand over the antidote because you understand the rules now. Exposing the truth won’t
bring justice to the victims.
“On the surface, you’re committing a crime, but actually, you’re putting yourself in a vulnerable position, taking a huge risk, for
justice.
“Once the virus is cracked, those powerful scumbags will definitely retaliate.”
Quinlyn understood everything but she wasn’t scared.
She said, “They are afraid of death. Even without the virus, they won’t kill me.

“They’ll ask me to develop stem cells for them.”

Warren was speechless.
His mind raced. He couldn’t help but give Quinlyn a thumbs–up. “You’re amazing! Thinking a hundred steps ahead. No one can
outsmart you.”
Quinlyn muttered, “I am not playing games with them.”
Quinlyn buried her face in her clothes. She suddenly felt a little bit cold.
Back in the cabin, Ivan waved to her.
Ivan shouted, “Quinlyn, come here! Your dear brothers are on the video call!
Quinlyn was startled for a moment, and her pace quickened slightly.
Finally, he started running, dashing through the crowd, and reached the computer.
There were unexpectedly three teenagers on the screen.
Stanley asked, “Quinlyn, are you alright? Why is your face so pale?”
Quinlyn said, “No, I just went on the deck for a stroll, hi, guys.”
Stanley said, “Okay, great. Do you get seasick? If so, tell them to slow down.”
Another boy said, “Stanley, can you ask something meaningful? If you can’t think of anything meaningful, let me do the asking.
“Quinlyn, I have good news for you! You’re about to become my godsister!”
Quinlyn nodded. “Okay.”
The boy said, “Antonio is just being polite. Nothing is set in stone yet, Quinlyn. Come back now and try on your dress.
“The family is throwing you a party on Christmas.”
The boys were loud and fighting for the camera. They were almost about to start a fight.

Quinlyn used to think her brothers were childish but now she only found it very heartwarming.
She said, “Okay. I’ll be right back.”

The three people on the other side of the screen also felt the change in her. They reckoned that something bad must have
happened on the island.
This time, even the happy–go–lucky Stanley didn’t get anything useful from her.
He couldn’t bear to see her thin and pointy chin.
They chatted and joked for a while to make sure she wasn’t injured before hanging up the phone.
Turning her head around, she found that Warren was gone.
Quinlyn thought for a moment and then grabbed a first aid kit before heading to his room.
He was indeed inside, leaning against the window, gazing at the sea, looking bored.
Due to his special identity, he had been avoiding crowds so he hadn’t seen Curtis.
Quinlyn said, “The video call is over.”
He turned around, seemingly already expecting her arrival.
Quinlyn nodded, walked forward, and opened the first aid kit. She took out a tube of second–generation stem cell medication.
She unwrapped the bandage around his foot and gave him a shot.
Based on the seriousness of his injury, the second–generation medication was enough to heal it without leaving any aftereffects.
Warren watched her serious face and smiled, lowering his eyes, “Sometimes you’re transparent.

“Since you got me hurt, I know you will take full responsibility.”
Quinlyn glanced up at him, unsure of what he wanted to say.
Warren smiled gently, “So, you really won’t come with me, will you?”
