If he went south of B City, he would really be in the south. He'd lived in the north his entire life and had never seen the sea. He wanted to experience a different life on the island.

They needed ID cards. An Xiaoyan had been riding buses these days because he didn't want to leave any trace. If he used his ID card, he would expose himself.
