Passing through the narrow and gloomy streets, He Ao purchased an overcoat at a small shop by an alley, a coat large enough to cover his entire body.

Dressed in the oversized overcoat and a round top hat, he crossed a pitch-black, deserted alley.

He stood in a corner of the alley, gazing from afar at a small window at the end of the street.

That was Nell's 'home'.

The house was on the first floor, damp and dimly lit, with an unpleasant view and consequently cheaper rent.

The entire place consisted of just a bedroom and a living room, housing two adults and six children.

When Nell was very young, he would romp with his brothers and sisters in the cramped room with two sets of bunk beds.

The third brother would sit at the small cabinet in front of the window, reading a book under the dim streetlight.

The forth brother, leaning against the bed, would grab the upper bunk's railing and perform aerial flips onto the bed for his siblings.
