A Prank Or A Crime? Sofia's Encounter

"Sister Jing, do you want to take a break and eat a proper snack? There should be a store selling for food here, right?" Sofia asked upon noticing the time that they had spent. She glanced at her wristwatch and saw that it was already almost 3 PM. 

"Ohh... actually, I'm okay to go visit the next business owner on your list, Miss Sofia. The cookies and soda already replenish my energy," Jing Jing answered, referring to the snacks whom Mr. Tiu had offered them. "But, if you wish to take a break, then, let's take a quick break first. It must be tiring on talking with the two business owners. I'm ashamed that I was not much of an assistance to you, Miss Sofia."

"Nonsense. You coming with me is more than enough, sister Jing. It's better if we take a break for a few minutes. I think the next store will not be as easy as the first two stores that we visited," Sofia said softly. Her words carry a certain degree of anxiety. But, her expression remained calm.
