Chapter 372: Easy Enough

The house the children had been left in wasn’t far from where Alice and Stefan had stopped. It wasn’t difficult to find or to stay hidden behind a large tower of wooden pallets and varying piles of junk.

The problem was that there were several guards outside of the house.

“How did you guys get past all of them?” Alice asked as she counted at least four guards.

“Those guys weren’t here earlier,” Stefan replied. “There was only one, the same one that’s always there during the day.”

“Are these guys usually here at night?”

“No, I’ve never seen this many guards before,” Stefan said.

Alice took a deep breath. She wasn’t sure if it was because of the rioting or if there was something else inside the house that they needed extra security for.

That voice whispering in her mind told her the latter seemed far more likely.

“You stay here,” Alice whispered.

“I wanna come,” Stefan said.
