"Ah!"
The person cried out in surprise, collapsing to the ground, scattering the contents they were holding all over.
Aveline stumbled a few steps before regaining her balance.
Looking closely, she saw it was a young girl with only one arm, dressed in tattered clothes, with visible scars on her face.
"Hey, are you okay?"
Seeing this, Aveline's heart tightened with concern, and she quickly rushed to help the girl up.
However, as soon as the young girl moved, she cried out in pain, indicating she was hurt somewhere.
Noticing this, Aveline hesitated to touch her further and instead asked, "Where does it hurt?"
Tears welled up in the girl's eyes as she looked at her only arm and replied, "My arm... it hurts so much..."
When she had fallen earlier, she instinctively tried to support herself with her arm, and a sharp pain shot through it.
Aveline glanced at her arm and saw a protrusion. It was clearly a fracture!
She immediately called for an ambulance.
"Don't move. I've called an ambulance; it will be here soon," Aveline reassured her gently, trying to calm her down.
The girl, her eyes filled with tears, looked toward the scattered books on the ground. Seeing this, Aveline quickly gathered the books and neatly put them together.
When the ambulance arrived, Aveline got in with the girl, who was then taken straight to the operating room for treatment.
Aveline stood nearby, holding the books, her brows slightly furrowed.
She glanced at the time; over an hour had passed.
But now, leaving the girl here was something she simply couldn't bring herself to do.
The girl's broken arm was her responsibility.
