Chapter 31
Kanya and her squad investigate a shadow village suspected of harboring clues to a mysterious death linked to fish mites and shrimp farms. They conduct a quiet raid under General Pracha's orders, interrogating villagers and focusing on a young girl named Mai who reveals information about a closed foreign-owned factory called SpringLife. The chapter explores Kanya's conflicted emotions and the tension between duty, loyalty, and survival in a dystopian, flood-prone Bangkok.
