Chapter 408 Guo Shan
Chi Xiuchuan made this call on behalf of Xiaoyuan.
He had no idea what the child wanted to say to Master Xiao, but he was also extremely curious.
……
"Master Xiao, I gave the phone to Xiaoyuan."
Chi Xiuchuan handed the phone to the child who was half hanging on him with an anxious look on his face.
……
"Master Xiao!"
A child's cheerful voice came.
"Xiaoyuan."
Infected by the child's emotions, Xiao Xiao's smile deepened.
"Is there a problem?"
"Well-"
The child was a little shy, "Um..."
Xiao Xiao listened patiently and quietly without rushing the child.
……
Chi Xiuchuan couldn't help but rub the child's head encouragingly, but was met with a look of disdain from the child.
There was a hint of laughter in his voice. "What's wrong? You were in a hurry to call Master Xiao earlier, but now you can't say it?"
"certainly not."
The child retorted subconsciously.
Then he took a deep breath and spoke slowly.
……
The matter is also somewhat related to the child’s previous hallucinations.
Because they have had such experiences, children are more sensitive to similar things.
……
The child attends a famous public school in Yenching, which is a century-old school with an excellent academic atmosphere.
However, no matter how good a school is, it has both bright and dark sides.
This is inevitable.
……
There was a student in the child’s class who had been isolated by his classmates since some time ago and was often bullied by the naughty students in the class.
As the class monitor and the actual leader of the class, he never directly bullied that classmate. It was not because he was kind, but because he just didn't care.
Despite this, the child did not care about his situation, allowing him to be bullied by others and never meddled in his affairs.
Because the students won't go too far.
After all, this school is famous, and while it attracts a lot of people, it also means that the competition is fierce.
The students who can get into this place are not so stupid and will not spend so much time on bullying others, which is obviously meaningless.
There are just a few naughty students who use this as an occasional spice in their school life.
……
Moreover, in the eyes of children, a boy who is so cowardly deserves to be bullied.
Can a boy expect to be saved like a girl if he doesn't become strong himself?
……
Because of his family background, the child is somewhat willful and domineering, but his vision and intelligence are not comparable to those of ordinary people.
……
However, because of his own experience with the "monster friend", he noticed something strange when he looked at the student again.
The student's name is Guo Shan.
Maybe his parents wanted him to be a kind person.
However, nothing is too much.
Being too kind turns into weakness and being vulnerable.
……
To be honest, the child really couldn't remember what his classmate's name was at first.
Or because he was the class monitor, he thought about it and finally remembered the name of this classmate which was a bit unfamiliar to him.
That boy is always silent and timid.
Sitting alone in the corner of the classroom, not participating in any activities.
He was not accepted or liked by his classmates, and because his grades were neither good nor bad, he was the kind of student most easily ignored by teachers.
In short, except for the classmates who like to bully him and occasionally go to block him, he is an invisible person in the class.
……
Of course, these are not the main points. The main point is that the child accidentally noticed Guo Shan whispering to the air, with a numb expression but revealing a bit of lingering fear. After that, the child always paid attention to Guo Shan intentionally or unintentionally.
……
The overly long hair on his forehead blocked some of Guo Shan's eyes, and he always liked to keep his head down, making him look even more gloomy.
……
Therefore, we cannot blame other students for not liking Guo Shan or even bullying him.
Children are simple-minded, so they will express their preferences more frankly and directly.
What's more, even adults can't help judging people by their appearance.
Not to mention the children.
……
It would be fine if he was just taciturn and unlikable, but even his aura was gloomy, like a creature in the dark. How could anyone like such a person?
In fact, most students, especially girls, not only dislike Guo Shan, but are even secretly afraid of him.
Even though he was thin and looked defenseless, he was always bullied by the boys in his class.
……
Uh, we’ve gone off topic again.
The child smiled somewhat embarrassedly.
The main reason is that Guo Shan is such a weird person.
He couldn't help but say a little more.
Closer to home.
……
He discovered that Guo Shan would indeed show various expressions to the air from time to time, such as embarrassment, fear, and even terror. Occasionally, his lips would move, as if he was speaking, but also as if not.
He once took the opportunity to get closer to Guo Shan to listen to what the man was saying, but unfortunately he heard nothing.
Guo Shan almost held the words in his mouth when he spoke.
……
Guo Shan’s condition looks very familiar.
Wasn't he like this before?
However, the child paused, as he had previously thought he saw a monster friend.
As for Guo Shan, it was obvious that what he saw was not something that made him happy.
……
After all, they were classmates and felt a sense of sympathy. After thinking about it, Xiao Yuan decided to find Brother Xiuchuan, hoping to contact Master Xiao through him and help his classmate.
Through observations over the past few days, the children discovered that Guo Shan was not silent, taciturn, or gloomy, but he always seemed to be in a state of panic.
The slightest movement could almost scare him.
Even though his reaction was suppressed, he discovered this only after careful observation.
As for the reason, the child seemed somewhat dazed and bewildered.
……
"...That's just the way it is."
"Master Xiao, can you help my classmate?"
The child asked anxiously.
……
Xiao Xiao had been quietly listening to the child talking about his classmates. He fell behind Zhang Bo and the others and slowly followed them towards the dormitory building.
Hearing the child's request, he looked up at the sky where snow was still falling and replied in a gentle voice, "Of course."
……
"really?"
The child exclaimed in surprise, "Thank you, Master Xiao."
"You're welcome."
There was a hint of smile in Xiao Xiao's voice.
……
"Then Master Xiao, when are you free?"
The child couldn't wait to set a time to meet.
"Just tomorrow."
Even though he was not sure whether the child named Guo Shan was really possessed by a monster or just had hallucinations like Xiao Yuan before, Xiao Xiao would go and take a look.
And the sooner the better.
What if that child is really possessed by a monster?
After listening to Xiaoyuan's story, Xiao Xiao could at least be sure that it was definitely not a kind monster.
