Girls have no resistance to cute things, let alone such cute girls.

The little girl burst into tears and looked at Qiu Meizi with a pitiful expression, saying, "My mom and I came out to play, but there are so many people and I can't find my mom. I'm really scared. Pretty sister, can you take me home?"

"If she can't find me, my mom will definitely be beaten to death by my dad when she goes back. I don't want my mom to die. I want to go back and find her."

The little girl was crying very sadly, her body was convulsing, which made Qiu Meizi feel very sorry for her.

She quickly reached out and wiped away the little girl's tears, saying, "Don't worry, tell us slowly. We'll take you home. Don't cry."

With her comforting words, the little girl gradually stopped crying and her tears.

According to the little girl, she went out with her mother today, but there were too many people, and she got separated from her mother because she was looking at the rattle drums on someone's stall.

She has been looking for her mother for a long time and has sought help from others, but no one has helped her.

They came to see Qiu Meizi and the others with a try-it-out attitude.

"Pretty sister, I'm really not a bad person. I just want to go home. It's too dark, and I'm scared."

"Okay, don't be afraid. Where do you live? I'll take you home."

Qiu Meizi had no resistance to her and picked her up directly.

"Yunhai, let's take her back. She's so small, it'll be very dangerous for her to keep wandering outside."

"it is good."

Lin Yunhai had no objection to her decision and agreed immediately.

Qiu Meizi wasn't familiar with the area, but fortunately, the little girl had an excellent memory and remembered where her home was, so she gave directions.

To make the little girl happy, Qiu Meizi specially bought her a lot of delicious food and fun toys.

Throughout the entire process, Lin Yunhai didn't say anything, but simply followed quietly behind them.

Qiu Meizi is naive, so she can be deceived by little girls, but Lin Yunhai is different.

He had seen the same tricks too many times in his previous life, so he wouldn't fall for them at all.

This little girl isn't some pitiful creature who can't find her mother; she's clearly bait set up by someone else to deceive a kind-hearted girl like Qiu Meizi.

The little girl said she couldn't find her way home and asked them to take her back.

But she was the one giving directions the whole way, which means she knew the way home.

Since she knew this, why didn't she go back herself instead of going through the trouble of having someone else take her?

Unless her real purpose wasn't to have someone take her home, but rather to have someone like Qiu Meizi.

He didn't expose the little girl's lie because he wanted to see who in Qinghe County wanted to deal with him.

It's troublesome to have an enemy hiding in the shadows, so I brought him into the open.

After carrying the little girl for a long time, Qiu Meizi also noticed that something was wrong.

The path the little girl in the new shoes pointed out to her became increasingly remote.

"Little sister, do you really live here?"

Qiu Meizi's vigilance led her to ask a few more questions.

The little girl nodded blankly and pointed to the rows of dilapidated buildings standing in the darkness ahead, saying, "I'm in the alley ahead, I'll be there soon."

"Beautiful sister, thank you so much today. If you hadn't brought me back, I definitely wouldn't have been able to get back on my own. I'll ask my parents to thank you properly later."

The girl looked serious, not like she was joking, but Qiu Meizi still felt something was off.

In such a place with its towering buildings and complex alleyways, even locals get lost. It would be extremely dangerous for outsiders to go in.

If there is any danger, you will be trapped inside, and even escaping will be a big problem.

Feeling uneasy, Qiu Meizi turned around and glanced at Lin Yunhai behind her, asking him with her eyes whether he wanted to go over.

One should not lose one's kindness, but the premise of kindness is to protect oneself, otherwise bad people will take advantage of one's kindness to harm oneself.

After Lin Yunhai nodded slightly to her, Qiu Meizi didn't say anything more.

Perhaps Lin Yunhai has his own plans.

"Little girl, do you remember which building your home is in? I see there are quite a few buildings here. It's so dark now, are you sure you won't forget where you live?"

"I have a great memory, I definitely won't forget, don't worry, sister."

“My mother said that we should be grateful and repay kindness. It’s very late tonight, so I can invite you to stay at my house for the night as a way of thanking you for bringing me home.”

The little girl was eloquent and had an intelligence far beyond what one would expect for her age.

There's only one possibility for this: what she said was something someone had taught her beforehand, and all she needed to do was memorize it.

But who would scold a child for these things?

Qiu Meizi was very interested in this.

The two followed the little girl discreetly and soon entered the dark alleyway.

The little girl was very lively the whole way, chattering away nonstop.

To lower Qiu Meizi and the others' guard, he kept saying comforting words to them, afraid that they wouldn't follow him inside.

However, Qiu Meizi could clearly sense a slight change in the little girl's mood after she led them into the alleyway; she seemed less ingratiating towards Qiu Meizi and the others than before.

The little girl skipped and hopped ahead, talking about some trivial things that happened here, while Qiu Meizi walked side by side with Lin Yunhai behind.

Seeing that the little girl didn't turn around, she asked in a low voice, "Are you sure there's no danger?"

“There will be danger, but I want to see who is targeting us.”

"Unless we find out who is behind this, as long as we are still in Qinghe County, those people will not give up targeting us."

"In that case, we might as well take the initiative, find those people, and take care of them."

He likes the feeling that taking the initiative is the only way to control the overall situation.

The alleyways were intricate and winding. The little girl led them through many places, walking for a full twenty minutes, before finally pointing to a faint light above and saying, "That's my home."

After the little girl finished speaking, she excitedly ran over and started banging on the door.

Not long after, the door was opened from the inside, and a beautiful woman came out.

Upon seeing the little girl, the woman burst into tears and hugged her tightly, refusing to let go.

"Qiaoqiao, where did you run off to? Do you know how worried I was? You really scared your mother to death."

The little girl nestled in the woman's arms, gently patted her back, and comforted her, "Mommy, don't cry, I'm okay, I'm fine. I met two kind older brothers and sisters who brought me home."

After the little girl finished speaking, she pulled her mother in front of Lin Yunhai and his mother, and introduced them, saying, "They're the ones who brought me back."
