The Loony Island on the border of country A was an isolated island and a slum.
Old people, severely disabled people and mental patients who had no self-care ability and no one to rely on would be thrown to this island to fend for themselves.
There was no network, no electricity, and no supplies of daily necessities here.
There was no law and no control, either.
This was a living hell.
The dark sky covered the island like black cloth.
Under a dying old tree, a young girl huddled on the ground, her fragile body was covered with white clothes, and her little face was horribly pale and stained with blood under her long hair.
Marlene bit her nails, and her black and white eyes looked at the front calmly and indifferently.
Some people ran naked;
Someone jumped into the sea and tried to swim and escape outside;
Some people couldn't stand it, silently sharpened stones and cut their wrists.
Such scenes had been common since she was thrown here by the Evans three years ago.
She was the adopted daughter of the Evans.
She didn't know that the Evans adopted her only for they believed a fortune-teller until three years ago. Selena Evans, the real daughter of the Evans, was foretold that she would live hard all her life when she was born. When she was a child, she would be susceptible to diseases and disasters. At the age of eighteen, she would suffer a big calamity and then die in another country.
Only by finding a person who had the same time and horoscopes of birth to prevent Selena's doom, could Selena escape from the calamity.
Marlene was the one who helped prevent it.
When she was a child, the Evans would give her a mess of medicine, which made her suffer constantly. When she was eighteen years old, she was forcibly sent by the Evans to get engaged to an old man.
She resisted desperately, stabbed the old man who was nearly sixty with a fruit knife, and then tried to escape but failed.
Then, she was sent to the Loony Island by the Evans.
In a flash, three years had passed.
Marlene also didn't know when she would die in a foreign land as the Evans' wish.
"Click-click!"
Suddenly the sound of helicopters came from the sky.
