Boye came to the rooftop and opened the door that had cut them off from the rest of the world. As her eyes overlooked the entire village and she saw the strange faces of people walking on the road, her face became extremely gloomy.
Grandpa had come to her side at some point, saying," They won't leave until they find you and Baby Zetty.”
Boye replied anxiously, "But I have to go out."
Grandpa asked, "Are you going to collect medicinal ingredients?"
Boye nodded. "Yeah."
Grandpa said, "Let me go, then."
Boye shook her head, saying, "You're my assistant and they know you. How would they ever let you off the hook?"
Grandpa said, "I’ll disguise myself."
Boye said, "All the villagers in the village are under their control. If you go out with an unfamiliar face, they’ll be suspicious of you."
Grandpa replied, "We have to try our luck. Otherwise, i f we stay here, we’ll run out of food and everything else. We'll still have to leave eventually."
Boye panicked and said, “Let me consider it."
Three days later, Baby Zetty excitedly came to Boye and chirped, "Mister, I've thoroughly studied the experimental principle of this problem. I want to test i t out."
Boye looked at Baby Zetty in surprise. Three days? All i t took was three days for her to muster up the courage to try something she had never done before in her entire life.
