Chapter 3166: Murder and Compensation

Xiao Xiao's casual words angered the boy a little.

The boy's eyes widened with fire.

"How do you know I made a mistake?!"

……

There is obviously no basis for this, yet he is so sure.

This person just doesn't want to return the maple leaf to him!
The boy was very angry.

"I didn't admit my mistake."

“This is my maple leaf!”

……

Xiao Xiao tilted his head slightly.

Well.

Let’s not discuss whether the term “my maple leaf” is appropriate?
Xiao Xiao was a little curious about why the boy was so confident in his judgment.

"How do you prove what you said?"

……

"..."

The boy opened his mouth.

……

Ok?
Xiao Xiao looked at the boy.

……

The boy clenched his fists.

“…It’s spring now.”

……

"Ah."

Xiao Xiao nodded.

That's right.

Now is the time of spring when flowers are blooming.

……

“Maple leaves turn red in autumn.”

The boy opened his eyes wide.

……

"Ah."

Xiao Xiao motioned to the boy to continue.

He seemed to have guessed what the boy was going to say.

……

“…Only my maple leaves are red in the spring.”

The boy pretended to be calm.

A look of self-righteousness.

But the slightly flickering look in his eyes revealed that the boy was a little guilty.

He is not guilty about what he said.

Everything he said was true.

He just didn't know how the other party would react after he said this?
……

“Have you ever seen maple leaves turn red in the spring?”

The boy added hastily.

Since things have come to this, the boy just wants to go with the flow.

I am not so timid anymore and I feel more relaxed.

"no?"

“This is my maple leaf.”

The boy nodded vigorously.

It adds a lot of persuasiveness to my words.

……

Xiao Xiao curled the corners of his mouth.

“I’ve also seen maple leaves turn red in the spring.”

……

"you-"

The boy thought Xiao Xiao was talking about what happened just now.

"You're quibbling!"

“I saw it when I was a kid.”

“It stayed with me for a long time…”

“It’s my maple leaf.”

"I finally found it..."

"And you lost it."

The boy had an accusatory look on his face, and his words were mixed with a hint of grievance and sadness.

It was really hard for him...

As a result, before he could even be happy, the beautiful dream in his eyes was burst like a bubble.

"You have to compensate me for my maple leaf."

The boy couldn't help but shout.

He reached out to grab Xiao Xiao's clothes.

It seems that he is worried that this person will run away.

Just the next second -
"Ouch!"

The boy cried out in pain and quickly withdrew his hand.

"Sigh~"

The boy covered his hurt hand with a look of surprise and confusion on his face.

what happened?

His hand just now... seemed to have been hit by something...

What is it?
……

The boy was confused and puzzled.

Reluctantly, he stretched out his hand again.

This time, he didn't reach out quickly.

His eyes were fixed on the situation around his hands without blinking.

……

Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.

There was a hint of smile in his eyes.

……

The little white fox snorted softly.

idiot.

Since he wants to be beaten, it will grant his wish.

……

The little white fox flicked its tail.

It seemed like just a random action.

The boy was caught off guard for a moment.

The next second -
The boy grinned.

His expression was somewhat dazed.

He saw it.

It was the little fox's tail that hit the back of his hand.

The furry-looking tail didn't feel soft at all when it hit his hand.

He was so surprised.

Even though his hand was hit, he subconsciously cried out in pain...

But he didn't make any more moves. His hands just stood there in a daze.

His eyes were fixed on the little fox.

……

After a few seconds, the boy seemed to react and quickly withdrew his hand.

He used his other hand to cover the back of his hand which had been "injured" twice.

A breath of cold air came out of his mouth.

"Sigh~"

This little fox did not hesitate at all when he acted.

If he hadn't verified it with his own eyes several times, he would have thought that his hands were torn apart.

Uh……

The boy couldn't help but shiver all over.

What a terrible word.

……

“It hit me.”

The boy looked at Xiao Xiao.

It sounds like stating a fact, but also like an accusation.

……

"Ah."

Xiao Xiao's eyebrows curved slightly.

"Feel sorry."

"Ajiu doesn't like strangers getting too close."

“The reaction will be greater.”

……

The boy suddenly realized.

Was it because of the hand he just extended that the little fox misunderstood?

But this is too much of a reaction.

Don’t cats and dogs usually bark to give warnings first?

How can you just start fighting right away?

Although this is a fox...

But little foxes, little cats, little dogs... aren't they all the same?

……

"...What a fierce little fox..."

The boy gently touched the back of his hand where he was hit, feeling a little aggrieved.

Even though the little fox was very pretty, it hit him, and the boy's impression of the little fox was greatly reduced.

……

The little white fox half opened his eyes.

Bared his teeth at the boy.

The white teeth gleamed brightly in the sunlight filtering through the gaps between the branches above.

……

The boy narrowed his eyes slightly.

I felt a little bit unbelievable, and also a little bit angry and amused.

This fox actually provoked him after beating him?
it……

For a moment, the boy felt frustrated that the words were on his lips but he couldn't say them.

……

"Ah Jiu."

Xiao Xiao tapped the little white fox lightly on the head.

It's rare to see the little white fox interested in amusing people.

……

The little white fox's tail rubbed against the back of Xiao Xiao's hand.

It was just a whim.

Maybe he was a little dissatisfied that this human intercepted the message to Lord Xiao Xiao.

It felt nothing for the monster that delivered the letter.

But, Lord Xiao Xiao’s things... cannot be touched by others.

……

Xiao Xiao lowered his eyes and smiled.

Then he looked at the boy.

……

The boy looked back and forth between Xiao Xiao and the little white fox with a look of surprise.

of course.

It's the relationship between pets and owners.

He could understand why the little fox was close to its owner.

However, the difference in treatment before and after was too obvious, and he couldn't help feeling a little unfair.

Humph.

If you have the guts, just hit it with the tail.

Useless.

The boy kept muttering to himself.

……

"If you have nothing else, I'll take my leave now."

Xiao Xiao raised the corner of his mouth.

Ling Feng had something to discuss with him, so naturally he would go to Xu's house next.

……

"what?"

The boy was stunned.

"etc-"

He subconsciously tried to pull Xiao Xiao's clothes again.

Fortunately, he reacted at the last second.

His hand turned abruptly.

……

"and many more."

The boy took a step forward and stood in front of Xiao Xiao.

A face full of stubbornness.

"Give me back the maple leaf."

……

The topic returned to the beginning.

Xiao Xiao shook his head slightly at the boy's stubbornness.

"Are not you just saw it?"

“The maple leaves are gone.”

……

"I do not care."

The boy seemed like a child who was making trouble for no reason.

"The maple leaf disappeared in your hand."

"You have to compensate me!"

"Compensate me!"

……

Xiao Xiao was not angry because of the boy's impolite and even aggressive tone.
