The girl looked at Kuituo and Luogen as they returned and couldn't help but be taken aback, then she burst into laughter.
It was a cute smile, and even her shoulder-length blonde hair seemed to shine with a dazzling light in the midst of that adorable smile.
Kuituo paid no attention and kept looking down.
"I seem to have lost my little knife here."
Luogen, on the other hand, was explaining.
"I, I can help you," said the girl, her voice clear and pleasant.
Kuituo and Luogen did not refuse; the thick underbrush near the small woods behind the school and the dimming light of the evening made it beneficial to have an extra pair of eyes searching.
And it didn't take long for Kuituo and Luogen to feel grateful for such a thought.
"Is this it?"
The girl held up the small knife in her hand, looking expectantly at Kuituo and Luogen.
"Yes, that's it."
"It was a gift from my dad."
"It is my most treasured possession."
"Thank you so much, I really appreciate it."
