Under Xiao Lian Hua's gaze, Xiao Cui tensed for a moment, then thought this was just a ten-year-old girl, nothing to be afraid of.
Unable to think of a reason, she hesitated and said, "I think it's better to go this way, you know, more people means easier to hide." She stammered to the end, thinking of a lame excuse.
Not wanting to waste words, Xiao Lian Hua immediately started walking, trusting this sister's feeling less than her own. It's true that more people make for good hiding, but there are plenty of people on the other side too.
"Hey, wait, don't go..." Seeing that they were ignoring her and about to leave, Xiao Cui grew anxious. A flash of inspiration hit her, and she hurriedly said, "Aren't you looking for a doctor to treat Xiao Hua Mei? I heard that big ships have doctors on board to prevent illnesses. Maybe there might be a doctor at the dock over there too."
This successfully made Xiao Lian Hua stop. If there was a doctor, that would be excellent.
