The desolate village was dilapidated. The three of them passed through endless fields and finally reached the village entrance. The old man dressed in coarse clothes was still farming in the field. He had put up a greenhouse tunnel in a small plot of land. What he grew inside, they did not know.
Harold walked forward and called, "Sir."
The old man ignored him, as if he didn't hear or see him. When he came out of the greenhouse tunnel, he noticed that there were more people coming this time. His eyes swept across the group and then his gaze froze.
Stephanie inherited her high nose and big eyes from her parents. At the corner of her eyes was a sesame-sized lacrimal mole. Usually, it was covered with foundation, but today, she didn't apply any. The old man froze the moment he saw the lacrimal mole.
Stephanie looked at the old man's weathered face and hesitantly called, "Grandpa?"
The old man suddenly turned around and ran away.
Emily and Harold were confused. What was going on?
