Turning back, there was already a dense sea of people.

The girl with the ponytail had long vanished.

Dirk Carter was unwilling to give up.

He followed the direction where the ponytail disappeared.

After walking about a hundred meters or so.

A piece of paper appeared on the ground.

He picked it up and opened it, sure enough, it was from his wallet.

This was the phone number Gauthier Pace left him when they parted ways a few hours ago.

Standing still.

Looking around.

On the left, there was a small alley, but he didn't know where it led.

Time to take a chance.

Without a word, Dirk Carter entered the alley.

After walking about twenty meters, he suddenly saw the ponytail in the distance, stuffing something into a boy's hand.

Dirk Carter wouldn't say something like "stop there".

He sprinted towards the ponytail.

The ponytail was quite alert too.

She suddenly turned her head, saw Dirk Carter, and pushed the boy into another alley, while she herself fled to the opposite alley.

To be fair, the woman reacted quickly and was quite agile, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Dirk Carter smiled slightly.

He turned and chased after the boy.

Clearly, this boy was much slower than the girl.

Before he could run fifty meters, Dirk Carter had cornered him in a dead end.

The boy in front seemed about fourteen or fifteen years old, tightly clutching Dirk Carter's wallet.

Seeing him tense and retreating step by step.

Dirk Carter reached out his hand and said, "Give me the wallet, and I won't hold it against you."

The boy quickly hid the wallet behind his back, gritting his teeth and saying, "I can't give it to you. It's what Sister Yu gave me."

"That's the wallet your so-called sister stole from me."

Dirk Carter said.

The boy still looked stubborn.

He clearly had no intention of returning it.

Dirk Carter didn't want to waste any more time, just as he was about to approach the boy, he suddenly felt a breeze by his ear, instinctively dodging to the side, only to see a fist brush past his cheek.

Missed the target.

Dirk Carter turned around accordingly.

As expected, it was the ponytail girl.

The ponytail didn't give up just yet.

Another whip kick came towards Dirk Carter.

"Oh, you've got some moves,"

Dirk Carter muttered, then pushed out a palm to directly block the leg.

His hand spun along her calf.

The outstretched leg was caught by Dirk Carter.

This made the ponytail girl's position rather awkward.

Her legs opened like a right angle, her hands couldn't reach Dirk Carter, and her other foot couldn't kick, her face turning red from anxiety.

"Let Sister Yu go."

Seeing this, the boy behind.

Rushed over in indignation.

He also swung a fist towards Dirk Carter.

Dirk Carter could handle this kind of small-time thief.

He blocked the punch, then gently tapped the boy's neck, making him collapse to the ground like a ragdoll.

"What did you do to him?"

The ponytail asked in panic.

Dirk Carter smiled slightly and said, "You should be more worried about yourself."

Saying so.

He pushed along her leg.

His hand slid from calf to thigh.

The distance between them closed.

With a thud, Dirk Carter pinned her against the wall.

Almost reaching a face-to-face position.

"What... what do you intend to do?"

Back against the wall, pressed by Dirk Carter's body, with one leg lifted by his hand, the pose was somewhat suggestive.

Especially as Dirk Carter's face came so close, their noses nearly touching.

The ponytail asked in a panic.

Her cheeks instantly turned even redder.

"What do I intend to do? Honey, it was you who stole my wallet, I just chased after you, and now you're asking me what I want?"

Dirk Carter coldly snorted.

"I... I... might as well return it to you."

The ponytail turned her face, arguing.

Dirk Carter chuckled, saying, "If I steal a kiss from you now, won't you steal one back from me, too—is that alright?"

Saying this, he puckered his lips and moved towards the ponytail's cheek.

"Ahhh, hooligan!"

The ponytail raised her right hand, striking towards Dirk Carter.

Dirk Carter caught it mid-air, pinning it again against the wall.

Now any struggle was futile.

Dirk Carter was determined to teach her a lesson, but just as he was about to continue "tormenting" the ponytail, something caught the corner of his eye, and he suddenly released her as if electrified.

At the alley entrance, at some point, two young children appeared.

A boy and a girl.

The boy seemed only five or six years old, while the girl wasn't much older, perhaps seven or eight, their whole bodies dirty, their hair a mess, clearly unwashed for a long time.

They blinked their big eyes, staring at Dirk Carter and the ponytail.

The little girl suddenly asked curiously, "Sister Yu, are you kissing this big brother?"

At these words.

Dirk Carter blushed.

The ponytail gave him a glance, crouching down and saying, "Heidi, why are you out here? Didn't I tell you to stay home with your brother?"

The girl named Heidi blinked her big eyes, saying, "Sister Yu, brother was hungry, he kept crying, and I told him if we come to find you, he won't cry."

"Okay, take your brother home now, Sister Yu will bring you food soon, okay?"

The ponytail said tenderly.

Heidi nodded obediently, telling the little boy, "Brother, let's go home, Sister Yu will bring us food soon."

Hand in hand, the two walked away.

The ponytail stood up.

She took the wallet from the boy collapsed on the ground, handing it to Dirk Carter, saying, "Not a penny was moved from the wallet, I'm returning it to you. If you're going to take me to the police station, please wait a bit, I have some things to do first."

She finished speaking.

Pointing to the boy on the ground, she asked, "When will he be alright?"

Dirk Carter squatted down, lightly touching the boy's neck with a technique unknown.

The boy miraculously took a deep breath and stood up.

The ponytail brushed the dust off him.

Taking two hundred yuan from her pocket.

She stuffed it into the boy's hand, saying, "Go buy some food for Heidi and the others."

The boy looked fearfully at Dirk Carter, then asked the ponytail, "Sister Yu, what about you?"

"I'm going to deal with some things with this big brother, I'll be back soon."

Hardly did the words fall.

The boy in front burst into tears.

Wiping his tears, he suddenly dropped to his knees in front of Dirk Carter.

This action startled Dirk Carter.

"Big brother, please let Sister Yu go, we didn't mean to steal your things, it's just... just my brother and sister and I haven't eaten all day…"

Dirk Carter hurriedly helped the boy up from the ground.

Asked the ponytail, "What exactly is going on?"
