Xiao clenched her teeth and took out the smoke bomb inside her pocket. She uncapped it and quickly threw it into a corner of the garden. With a whoosh, the foggy smoke instantly filled the area. She began to walk towards the backyard as she threw another small smoke bomb.
"Aagh! What the...?! Fire! Fire!!"
Mrs. Jang made a big fuss and everyone rushed towards her.
Xiao ran towards the greenhouse and finally arrived at the backyard. The overgrown branches grazed her face. However, she couldn't slow down. She ran through the forest of thick spindle trees where she was safe from prying eyes and was about to enter the greenhouse through its back door.
Woof! Suddenly, she saw a something running towards her at a frightening speed as it made a terrifying noise. Woof woof woof woof! Two pit bull terriers were barking like crazy. Instead of turning around and running away, Xiao crouched down and stretched out both her hands.
"Have you guys been doing well?"
