We show that $|mK_X|$ defines a birational map and has no fixed part for some bounded positive integer $m$ for any $\frac{1}{2}$-lc surface $X$ such that $K_X$ is big and nef. For every positive integer $n\geq 3$, we construct a sequence of projective surfaces $X_{n,i}$, such that $K_{X_{n,i}}$ is ample, ${\rm{mld}}(X_{n,i})>\frac{1}{n}$ for every $i$, $\lim_{i\rightarrow+\infty}{\rm{mld}}(X_{n,i})=\frac{1}{n}$, and for any positive integer $m$, there exists $i$ such that $|mK_{X_{n,i}}|$ has non-zero fixed part. These results answer the surface case of a question of Xu.
