Heading To Luocheng City

Noticing the tugging, the man turned to the girl and asked in a weak, hoarse voice, "What's wrong?"

The girl anxiously pointed at the armored cars, opening and closing her mouth as if trying to speak. Seeing her excitement, the man followed her gaze.

When his eyes landed on the bright lights in the distance, his expression changed. Grabbing the girl's wrist, he said, "Stay here. I will go check it out."

The girl grew anxious and shook her head, but the man placed his hands on her shoulders, looking her in the eye.

"Be good. Listen to me. I will go check first. If they are good people, I will come back for you. Stay here and don't move, alright?" He waited for her to acknowledge his words.

Realizing he wasn't lying, the girl nodded reluctantly and stayed put. After ensuring no one noticed them, the man removed his tattered jacket and draped it over the girl's shoulders.
