“Leah, where are you?!"

"Did you guys go out? Where are you...”

"Rose, Leah is missing.”

He has searched the area near the food stalls thoroughly, but still hasn't seen that familiar little figure.
Her hand holding the phone tightened as she anxiously asked, "How could she disappear? Where are you now?”
Without hesitation, Elliot immediately reported his current location.
Half an hour later, Rose rushed down from the taxi and ran towards Elliot with panic in her black eyes. “Where's the child? Where was she missing?"Elliot pointed to the nearby pony with a self-blaming expression. "She was sitting on it while I was queuing up to buy something.”"When I turned around after buying things, she was gone."
Rose's pupils shrank and sweat appeared on her hands. Did Leah leave by herself or was she taken away by someone...?
Just as Rose was about to call Sean and ask if Leah had returned home, her peripheral vision suddenly noticed surveillance cameras on top of themerry-go-round.
Suppressing her anxiety and panic, Rose turned to Elliot and calmly pointed at them. "There seems to be surveillance there; we can go check it out.”Elliot followed where she pointed and couldn't help but feel annoyed that he hadn't thought of this earlier.
