Chapter 167 What Is She Doing? (2)
While a few elderly people were still discussing the issue, Carlo had already grabbed a basketball and dashed toward Zoe’s spot.
Zoe, who hadn’t gone far, heard footsteps suddenly coming from behind.
The heart jumped straight to its maximum, and the entire chest could feel the deepest fear from within.
“Hello! Wait a moment!”
Carlo called out to Zoe from behind, but the alert Zoe did not turn around. Instead, she ran even faster.
Carlo was surprised when the little girl suddenly started running faster. She appeared to be very thin and weak, yet she was carrying such a large backpack.
It always felt awkward.
He, who often exercised, quickly caught up with Zoe in just a few steps and grabbed her arm.
“Wait, don’t run!”
“Ah!! Don’t touch me!”
After Carlo grabbed her arm, Zoe reflexively let out a scream.
Using all her strength, she tried to break free from Carlo’s grip.
“You, don’t be afraid!”

Carlo was also startled by Zoe’s sudden scream, helplessly staring at Zoe with wide-open eyes tightly shut.
The sharp scream echoed in the alley, and someone had already opened the window to look outside.
“What’s wrong?! It sounds like I heard a little girl screaming!”
“Who is downstairs! Go down and check!”
“Lately, the human trafficking syndicates have been very active! Let’s see if someone has stolen a child!”
After someone mentioned it, everyone responded enthusiastically, and the “fine tradition” of enjoying watching the excitement without considering the seriousness of the matter was also well demonstrated.
People quickly came toward the source of the sound.
Just now, the grandparents who were chatting also stopped their fans and stood up to look over there.
“Oh no! Did Carlo just run over there!”
“Is it the voice of a little girl, as they say?!”
“Where is Carlo?! I hope nothing has happened to him!”
The elderly people immediately dropped their fans and ran toward the source of the sound as fast as they could.
As more and more people started coming over, Carlo suddenly became at a loss.
He grabbed Zoe’s hand and suddenly ran toward the other side of the alley.
Zoe also calmed down a bit and ran along with Carlo in the direction.
At the recent location, the adults had already gathered, and everyone was discussing with a serious expression.
“It seemed to have come from here.”
“Where did you run off to?”
“To be honest, did you see any suspicious person?”
People were talking and discussing.
Carlo, however, kept running deeper into the narrow alley with Zoe.
“Hoo… hoo, you stopped calling, right?”
Carlo turned his head to look at Zoe, who was also panting heavily.
Zoe, who remained vigilant, still let go of Carlo’s hand.
“What were you doing? Why did you stop me?”
Zoe, who was not used to interacting with people and did not communicate much with peers, created a distance between herself and Carlo.
“Ah? I…”
Carlo was stunned.
Yeah, I called out to her and asked what she was doing.
I just heard my grandparents talking about a rather strange girl, so out of curiosity, I came up to take a look,
What can you do after reading it? What do you need to do by yourself?
Looking at her like that, it seemed like I couldn’t ask myself either.
“If there’s nothing else, I’m leaving.”
Zoe glanced at the strange person in front of her.
“Um, where are you going? It’s quite dangerous for you to go alone, things have been unsettled lately.”
Although Zoe had a weak personality, it didn’t mean that she could accept everything.
