Wait I just realized Xin didn’t just discover their bodies he SAW them get shot and killed. Every time I reread this story the MCs get a new form of trauma
Missed opportunity to say "the Ho family's comeback ho" these mfers can't even make good jokes All jokes aside this episode literally destroyed me. This is the 4th time ive read it but my heart still wants to fall out of my chest whenever i see the art style change to one that looks like it was drawn by a child. The moment Xin lost his innocence and had to "grow up" to protect Lau was so beautifully done. The fact that Lau finally allowed himself to trust someone again only to be lied to (even if it was for his own sake). Absolutely heartbreaking.
Also the head family is WAYYYY more fucked up than i thought. They deliberately left behind their siblings' dead bodies so that xin and lau would be traumatized. GROWN ASS ADULTS BEEFING W LITTLE KIDS. "they shall pay, they shall share the burden. your children shall grow up bearing indelible wounds in their hearts" OH FUCK OFF U MISERABLE CUNTS

Me too ... I feel like I've seen sera somewhere but I'm not sure
This is what happens next for anyone wondering btw:
Lian slaps Lau awake dramatically.
“Lau, wake up! We have a world to save!”
Lau blinks. “Huh? Weren’t you literally trying to kill Xin two seconds ago?”
Lian smirks. “Pfft. That was just a prank, bro. The tattoo’s not dangerous—it’s just... lead.”
“Wait, what?” Lau starts coughing. “That explains so much.”
Suddenly, a familiar voice echoes from behind.
“Lian would never betray us. Obviously.”
Lau spins around. “Wait… You’re alive?!”
Xin steps out from the shadows like Kermit palpatine.
“We were working together the whole time to take down the Head Family,” he says, dramatically flipping his hair even though there's no wind.
“I had to keep you in the dark to protect you, Lau. You were too precious… too pure.”
Lau gasps. “So… this was all a plan? To reunite the family? To free us from those crusty old council boomers?”
Xin nods, eyes sparkling with anime tears. “Yeah. Teehee.”
He stretches out his hand. “So let’s do this. One last job—for old times’ sake.”
“Lau, you go left. Wei, you go right. Lian… heh… you just keep being your chaotic little self.”
[cut to them dropping two atomic bombs on the Head Family tower while electric guitar solos play]
As the dust settles, Xin turns to Lau. “This… is for almost getting us killed!” [punches Lau in the stomach]
“And this… is for saving my life.” [reaches up and plants an unnecessarily romantic smooch]
Lau, blushing like an anime schoolgirl: “So… that’s it? We’re some kind of… Sangyang: The Wanderer?”
[cue sparkly music and slow zoom]
Before Xin can answer, Lian bursts through a wall cheering.
“WE DID IT! THE HEAD FAMILY’S DEAD! THIS WAS TRULY OUR… SANGYANG: THE WANDERER!!!”
She throws glitter in the air.
“Man, I feel a musical number coming on. Hit it, Wei!”
Wei, who’s been silently holding a guitar this whole time, shouts:
“LET’S DANCE!”
THE END (or is it? Stay tuned for Sangyang:the Wanderer 2: the Wandering & Sangyang:the Wanderer 3 The Wandering: Revelations)
