"Do you want to hear the good or bad news?" Upon returning from scouting the area, Alex presented the option to the street vendor.
Opting for the good news, the now relaxed street vendor replied, "Good news!"
"The good news is that we can escape at any time now," Alex revealed.
"That's wonderful! So, what's the bad news?" the street vendor inquired.
"The moment we escape, they will become aware of it and begin to chase us," Alex delivered the unsettling news.
When he scouted the area around them, he came across some suspicious individuals who were eyeing the house of the street vendor. They would occasionally walk through the neighbourhood while checking the condition of the father and son.
Alex realised from just a glance that these men were working with the spider gang. They were informants that were put in place to observe the child.
