When Lyra had stayed at her place before, Mikel was always on alert for suspicious cars parking outside. However, since Lyra left, no such cars had appeared again.
But today, a car suddenly parked there. Whose could it be?
Mikel couldn't guess for a moment.
She returned to the courtyard, planning to put away the things she had bought before going out to take a look. But when she finished putting things away and came out, she saw someone bending down and studying the lock on her yard gate.
This person looked like a thief!
Mikel tiptoed, picked up the empty watering can next to her, and walked towards the person outside her yard who was studying her lock.
Gregory Smith was preoccupied with the lock, thinking how old and worn-out it was.
How could it not be opened?
Where did she buy it?
Just as he leaned closer to examine the lock core, he was startled by an abrupt "hey!"
