The police searched the park again.
They searched twice, but found nothing.
That was enough to confirm that Little Man Tian Xing wasn't in the park.
Everyone had expected this result, but now that it had actually happened, no one looked happy.
It meant the chances that something had happened to the child... were even higher.
The teacher was in a panic.
As far as she knew, a child like Baby's Breath would never have left the park without permission.
Even if it was an extracurricular activity,
it was still practically a class.
Leaving the park...
was no different from skipping class.
And she had skipped class right under her teacher's nose.
Speaking of her teacher's nose...
The teacher clenched her hands.
Hadn't Baby's Breath disappeared right under her nose?
The teacher's heart was pounding.
She didn't know whether her throat was dry and difficult to swallow because she'd been shouting during the search or for some other reason.
Especially since she knew...
Baby's Breath wouldn't do something like skip class.
She'd said it before.
Baby's Breath was a well-behaved child.
So well-behaved that she seemed almost timid.
She didn't know why she felt that way.
She thought she was probably overthinking it.
She'd seen Baby's Breath's parents and had spoken with them.
They were good parents.
At first, she'd only met Baby's Breath's mother.
That was normal.
In most families, mothers were more involved in looking after their children's studies and daily lives.
Baby's Breath's mother was a very graceful woman.
She was also very gentle with her child.
Some time ago, she'd finally met Baby's Breath's father.
He was a father who cared deeply about his child,
though she'd been a little puzzled when he'd come to the school specifically to change the contact information.
