"Linlin, how did you get out of the car?"
The woman, the man, and the police had all personally seen the girl being locked inside the car by the young man.
But no one had seen her leave the car.
Only the surveillance footage from that period had malfunctioned.
The screen had been completely white.
It was as if a poor signal had prevented the footage from being read properly.
They had tried to restore it.
But they had been powerless to do so.
If that footage had not malfunctioned, they should have been able to find the girl sooner.
So the woman had always felt troubled by the surveillance footage failing at that particular time.
She felt that even God was hindering them from finding the girl.
Of course.
Now that she thought about it, God had still been kind to the girl.
Some accidents... were just accidents, right?
The girl subconsciously glanced at Xiao Xiao.
How had she left the car...?
Qing Ji had saved him.
But Eldest Brother had said that she could not tell her father and mother about Qing Ji.
The girl pressed her lips tightly together.
"What's wrong?"
The woman keenly noticed the change in the girl's mood.
The girl blinked.
Her fingers twisted together unconsciously.
She shook her head.
"...I don't know."
"Don't know?"
The woman was surprised.
The man crouched down.
He met his daughter's gaze at eye level.
"What do you mean?"
The girl swallowed.
"I..."
The girl was so nervous that her heart seemed about to leap out of her chest.
"I feel awful..."
The words came out of nowhere...
The woman almost thought the girl meant that she was feeling awful now. Her expression turned anxious, and she was just about to speak.
