Chapter 323: Knowing the Fun, Checks and Titles
The ghost owl was quite clever. It was easier to lure innocent children than mature adults.
It's just too greedy.
If it is the soul of a person who has just died, it will just take it away.
It's just for eating.
And he may have the right to blame the ghost owls for hunting for survival without reason.
However, it is too much to take the soul of a healthy child.
Xiao Xiao felt that the spiritual power in his body had increased a little bit, and the smile on the corners of his mouth deepened a little.
……
"That's it."
Father Chi replied awkwardly, then reacted, "A bad-hearted guy?"
He suddenly remembered what Master Xiao said before, that his daughter's temperament changed drastically because she was possessed by dirty things. Could it be that the children in the ward were also possessed by dirty things and that's why they were getting weaker day by day?
So, even though they tried every scientific method, they still couldn't find anything.
This kind of speculation was not uncommon later on, but no one took it seriously.
If Chi's father had not met Master Xiao because of his daughter's matter, he would at most just laugh off such rumors, or even feel a little displeased.
In his opinion, it was clearly the doctor's own fault that he was incapable of doing the job, but he insisted on putting the blame on something that was groundless and fictitious. This was obviously a way of evading responsibility.
Those who do this are both despicable and cowardly.
Father Chi has never had a good impression of this kind of people.
……
However, after what happened to Xiuxiu and after meeting Master Xiao, he was no longer so sure. Perhaps there are some things in the world that are beyond human control.
……
"Ah."
"He is a mean and greedy guy."
Xiao Xiao replied seriously.
"Then it..."
Chi Xiu Ke's eyes sparkled, and she probably guessed the fate of the bad-hearted guy Xiao Xiao mentioned.
Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows, curved his eyes, and made a throat-cutting gesture.
Oh~, the Chi brothers and sisters nodded in understanding.
After being stunned for a moment, Chi's father couldn't help but laugh.
In his impression, even if it was not obvious, Father Chi, who had been in a high position for many years and was good at understanding people's hearts, could still vaguely sense the aloofness beneath Master Xiao's gentle and polite appearance. There was always a bit of coldness in his leisurely words and deeds. It was rare to see Master Xiao act so... childishly.
……
The Chi siblings were tactful and did not ask any further questions. Their previous experience told them that Master Xiao had already told them everything they should know, and they had no chance of getting what they should not know from their master.
Father Chi's many years of experience in dealing with people is not comparable to the Chi brothers and sisters who are still students. Although he has not spent much time with Master Xiao, he knows when to stop.
Even though Master Xiao didn't show any expression, Father Chi knew that this topic should come to an end.
However, Father Chi thought about it and finally asked for confirmation just in case, "Master Xiao, will the children be in trouble again?"
"I don't know about the rest, but this won't happen again."
Xiao Xiao gave an affirmative answer.
Monsters are not cabbages, otherwise powerful monsters would have ruled the world long ago. How could humans occupy a dominant position in the world?
Moreover, monsters have a strong sense of territory.
He has been sensing the situation carefully since he entered the hospital. Apart from this ghost owl, he has not found any trace of other monsters, nor has he smelled any scent of other monsters.
……
"That's fine, that's fine."
Father Chi finally relaxed completely and relaxed his stiff back slightly.
"Thank you, Master Xiao."
Father Chi straightened up again and thanked him solemnly.
"Uncle Chi, you are so polite."
Xiao Xiao smiled and shook his head.
"It should."
Father Chi also relaxed his expression and started to laugh.
"Well, Master Xiao, thank you." "Thank you, Master Xiao."
The Chi brothers and sisters spoke one after another. They had not noticed anything unusual about Chi's father during this period because they lived in the university dormitory. When they noticed it when they returned home this time, they thought it was because Chi's father was too tired from work recently, and they did not take it too seriously.
They felt a little guilty, as it was obvious that Father Chi was suffering a lot during this period.
But at home I just glossed over it.
Even Chi's mother didn't realize that Chi's father was in trouble.
Now that the problem has been solved, Father Chi can finally put down the burden in his heart.
The Chi brothers and sisters gave Xiao Xiao big smiles of gratitude.
……
Xiao Xiao couldn't refuse the invitation, so after having dinner at Chi's house, he said goodbye to Chi's father and mother, got into the Chi family's car, and went back to school with the Chi brothers and sisters.
Originally, Chi's father wanted to send them off personally, but was rejected by Xiao Xiao and the Chi brothers and sisters with a unanimous attitude.
I'm worried that after working so hard for so many days, Father Chi should have a good rest.
……
Before Xiao Xiao left, Chi's father handed Xiao Xiao a check.
Xiao Xiao didn't answer, but just said lightly: "Chi Xiuchuan and Chi Xiu Ke are my friends."
What he meant was that helping his friend's father was voluntary and not a transaction, so he didn't charge any money.
Father Chi smiled and said, "I know, but uncle can't ask you to work for nothing."
"It's not a lot of money, just a token of my appreciation."
"Just think of it as a red envelope from your Uncle Chi."
Chi's mother continued.
"Well, Master Xiao, you can accept it."
Chi Xiuchuan also joined in.
"Yes, Master Xiao, it's rare for dad to give out red envelopes."
Chi Xiu Ke had a playful expression and blinked her big almond eyes at Xiao Xiao, looking very cute.
Since the Chi family said so, Xiao Xiao did not refuse and simply accepted the check.
Seeing this, a hint of satisfaction flashed across Chi's father's brow.
"By the way, Master Xiao."
Father Chi suddenly remembered something and patted his children on the shoulders. "Just call them Achuan and Xiuxiu."
"Yeah, calling me by my full name is too unfamiliar."
Chi's mother also said with a smile.
Chi's father and mother were happy to see their children getting along well with Master Xiao, and naturally hoped that their relationship would get better and better.
With such a great person by their side, their children feel more at ease.
This request made Xiao Xiao stunned, but he immediately agreed with a smile.
It's just a title, Xiao Xiao naturally wouldn't go against the wishes of Chi's father and mother.
……
After getting off the bus, the school was bustling with people coming and going.
The street lamps cast a faint halo, adding a sense of mystery and warmth to the dark night.
The cold air made the Chi siblings shiver as they got off the car.
"so cold."
Chi Xiu Ke pulled the scarf around her neck, covering half of her face, and her big almond-shaped eyes blinked.
Chi Xiuchuan couldn't help but rub his lovely sister's head, and then said, "Let's go quickly, it will be warm in the dormitory."
"Ah."
Chi Xiu Ke nodded obediently.
"Let's go."
Xiao Xiao had a faint smile in his eyes as he watched the interaction between the brother and sister.
