Kiyomi Liuli slowly regained consciousness and looked around in a daze, only to find herself surrounded by dust everywhere in an empty, seemingly abandoned factory. She then looked down at herself and realized she was tightly tied to a chair with multiple layers of bindings, rendering her feet completely immovable.
"Finally awake? You've slept for over three hours..." While she was still disoriented, a somewhat hoarse voice came from not too far away, "Here, have some water."
Only then did Kiyomi notice someone behind her. She twisted her head to look and saw it was the old woman who had attacked her, of average build, wearing unremarkable clothes and a thick apron often worn by florists. She appeared to be around fifty, with short hair tinged with grey at the temples, and she walked with a limp.
