Two heads peeked out from behind Xiao Xiao, one on either side.
Both faces held a hint of curiosity.
Xiao Xiao lowered his eyes and smiled gently at the two children.
He looked up.
His gaze settled on the kite in the tree.
His hand moved slightly.
Two black shadows shot toward the kite in the tree, one after the other—
No.
The two shadows struck the branch holding the kite, one above the other, with a heavy thud.
"Thump~ Thump~"

After tugging his companion over to point them out, they had just been discussing which child had been so careless and unlucky...
When they saw the two children bringing someone over.
They were curious to see what the boy they'd brought over would do.

The boy didn't look the least bit troubled.

He appeared to find what he was looking for in the flower bed.
The boy smiled.
They craned their necks, but
