Chapter 933 Pei You's Call
"Yeah, for us, what does it matter even if we know that monsters are real?"
The deer said with a sad face, "Is it different from when you didn't know?"
“There is absolutely no difference!”
“It doesn’t feel real at all.”
"Like you, at least you heard some sound."
“Greed is bad.”
Xiaolu became quite angry as he spoke later.
……
Uh……
Pei You felt much better after hearing Xiao Lu's seemingly "accusing" comfort, and he even felt a sense of guilt for some reason.
She was the only one who heard the monster's voice. Isn't that a bit too cunning?
Moreover, she asked for more and was sad about not being able to see the monster, but she did not sympathize with the feelings of the deer and her brother.
Just as Xiaolu said just now, is she very greedy?
"sorry."
She stammered.
……
"Fool."
Xiaolu was stunned, then patted Pei You on the shoulder, "What are you apologizing for?"
"Maybe I'll suddenly be able to see it later when my third eye opens up?"
"Don't be too envious of me then."
“…Isn’t that called the Sky Eye?”
"What's that called?"
"Oh, don't be so fussy about the details."
"I hope you understand what I mean."
……
Xiao Xiao stood up, and the two girls stopped joking with each other and looked over.
Pei Liang stood up and asked, "Master Xiao?"
"It's getting late, I should go back."
"Master Xiao, I'll take you there."
Pei Liang said immediately.
"Ah, I want to go back too."
Xiaolu also stood up and looked at Pei You, "Xiaoyou, are you going back to school?"
"I'll be back tomorrow."
She still wanted to stay and try to see if she could hear the monster's voice again.
"My brother and I will take you back to school."
……
In the car, Pei You turned his head from time to time to look at Xiao Xiao who was sitting by the window, with an expression as if he wanted to say something but stopped.
Xiao Xiao closed his eyes slightly, and when Pei You looked at him for the third time, he spoke slowly, "What do you want to ask?"
"Hey, can I ask?"
Pei You exclaimed in surprise.
Xiao Xiao glanced at her, the sunlight falling on his sparse eyebrows and eyes, casting a soft halo, "Ask."
"It's just not certain whether I will answer or not."
Pei You, who just thought he saw the Holy Father: ...
Maybe my eyesight has gotten worse?
……
Xiaolu and Pei Liang, who had been listening to their conversation with their ears perked up, were also speechless.
Pei You calmed down and looked at Xiao Xiao with a serious face, "Master Xiao, I was too excited about the fact that monsters really exist, so I gave up this question."
"Now, I would like to ask you a question seriously, and I hope you can answer me."
"Will that monster hurt people?"
Even though she had read the images of monsters in novels and animations, she knew that real monsters were far from being so cute.
The monster legends that have been passed down to this day mostly contain negative content.
Especially in the eyes of the older generation, monsters...don’t they all eat people?
But she always remembered those words, "Play with me."
A monster that says something like this... can't be that bad, right?
……
Xiao Xiao opened his eyes and looked into the girl's worried eyes, "That's a playful monster."
Playful?
The girl was stunned for a moment, then a comfortable smile appeared on her face.
So that means it really doesn't mean to hurt anyone, right?
The previous children's drowning was just an accident.
It just wants someone to play with it, right?
But they couldn't see it.
A sigh escaped from the girl's heart.
……
"Does it want someone to play with it?"
The little deer murmured. "That was my original intention, but I didn't know the right measure and was a little overconfident."
Xiao Xiao said calmly, "I've already told it not to hold on to humans next time."
"If I could see it, I'd be happy to play with it."
The little deer held his cheeks with both hands, looking regretful.
"Ah."
Pei You responded softly.
She felt a little regretful that she didn't say "OK" when she heard the monster's words.
Perhaps, that was the only time in her life that she heard the voice of a monster.
If you miss that opportunity, when will the next one come?
The rest of the journey was very quiet in the car.
"Master Xiao, we're here."
Pei Liang stepped on the brakes.
"Thank you."
"Master Xiao, goodbye."
"Goodbye, Master Xiao."
"Goodbye."
A few days later, Xiao Xiao received a call from Pei You.
Although he thought about finding time to go see the drowned ghost later, he didn't expect that the opportunity would come so soon.
I heard a girl's anxious voice, and her narration was a bit messy.
Xiao Xiao comforted the girl softly and finally understood the general idea of what happened.
But another child drowned in the river where the monster lived.
But unlike the previous child who escaped danger, this time the child died despite failed rescue efforts.
"Master Xiao."
Pei You asked in a hurried voice, "What's going on?"
"Didn't you say last time that it was a good monster and that it had no intention of hurting anyone?"
"A child really drowned this time!"
"I heard he was only seven years old."
"How do you know that it was the monster that killed the child, rather than the child accidentally drowning?"
Xiao Xiao asked back.
"Uh?"
The girl, who was in a very emotional mood, was stunned.
Yes, how did she know that it was not the child who ignored the warning sign and drowned himself, but she subconsciously believed that the murderer was a monster?
".Isn't it the reason why children drowned before?"
“So I think this time.”
“No exception, right?”
Xiao Xiao declined to comment on Pei You's words.
"I am coming now."
"Oh ah?!"
Pei You was a little flustered after reacting a little bit late. "Um, Master Xiao, I'll ask my brother to pick you up."
"No, it takes too much time to go back and forth. I'll take a taxi myself."
Xiao Xiao was talking on the phone while walking outside.
He gestured to Zhang Bo and others who came over after hearing the noise to leave.
Everyone waved at him.
They have become accustomed to Xiao Xiao suddenly going out for something from time to time.
In the past, they would have suspected that Xiao Xiao had a girlfriend. But now, forget it, maybe he had another "business" coming to his door.
Master Xiao, your reputation is not earned in vain.
Xiao Xiao took a taxi to Pei You's house where he had been before.
From a distance, he saw the siblings Pei Liang and Pei You waiting at the door.
"Master Xiao."
Pei Liang stepped forward and opened the car door.
"Thank you."
Xiao Xiao got out of the car, "I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon."
"Master Xiao."
Pei You screamed, probably because her mind was occupied by the monster killing people, which made the girl forget her shyness and timidity, and she seemed quite natural when talking to Xiao Xiao.
The voice that came out had a hint of sharpness.
"Master Xiao, is he that monster?"
"Let's go to the river first."
After saying this, Xiao Xiao took the lead and stepped forward.
The two siblings were stunned, looked at each other, and hurriedly caught up with Xiao Xiao.
ps: Thank you Gui Chuwu for the reward (*︶*)!
