Chapter 941: Fate That I Don’t Want to End

Pei You couldn't wait any longer, so he swallowed nervously and spoke haltingly, "Master Xiao."

"Um, the death of the child, right?"

The girl clenched her hands on her knees.

"No."

Xiao Xiao's clear answer made the girl smile, and she murmured, "Great, I knew it wasn't it."

She did doubt it at first.

But, she heard it.

She heard its cry for help.

It is calling for help, so does that mean it is also in danger?

The child's death was not caused by it.

Because it's also in trouble.

She thought so, but was worried that she was making excuses for it and felt ashamed of herself for having such thoughts.

Now that she had received Master Xiao's answer, she was truly relieved.

It was the first monster she encountered.

It was also the first monster voice she heard.

Even though she couldn't see it, even though they didn't even have a conversation, it was already different in her heart.

She didn't want it to be a monster that would hurt humans.

If possible, she hoped, they could become friends.

"Was the child's death just an accident?"

"Is it his own fault?"

"No murderer?"

The problem Pei You was worried about was solved, and Pei Liang asked about his own doubts.

Something feels wrong.

"No."

Xiao Xiao's words stunned the two siblings.

"Master Xiao, didn't you say-"

Pei You said hesitantly, "Isn't it its fault?"

"Well, it's not its fault."

Xiao Xiao nodded.

"Is there any premeditated murder?"

Pei Liang exclaimed, then frowned, and began to wonder if the child's family had offended someone? Or was it just a coincidence?
"Intentional murder?"

Xiao Xiao chewed on the word, "Perhaps it would be more appropriate to say intentional homicide."

"Also, the murderer is not a human."

"Intentional murder?!"

"not human?!"

Pei You and Pei Liang opened their mouths wider than each other.

"Ah."

"It's a monster."

Xiao Xiao was very kind and answered their questions.

"monster?"

Pei You suddenly thought of something and his eyes widened. "Master Xiao, are you saying that there are other monsters in that river?"

"Yes, an uninvited outsider."

Xiao Xiao nodded.

"Outsiders?"

"That's it."

Pei You murmured to himself, "Then it."

"Master Xiao, how is it?"

Pei Liang was the first to ask the question that Pei You was hesitant about.

"how's it going?"

Xiao Xiao smiled and said, "Of course it got the punishment it deserved."

Kill for life.

"Deserved punishment?"

The two siblings spoke in unison and then looked at each other in tacit understanding.

When Pei You wanted to ask more specifically, she noticed the force on her shoulder and turned her head subconsciously. She saw Pei Liang shaking his head at her.

Pei You was stunned. Although he was a little confused, he decided to listen to his brother and didn't ask any more questions.

"It's getting late. I should go back to school."

Xiao Xiao stood up.

He said everything that needed to be said.

Now that the matter has been resolved, he can naturally leave.

"Ah, Master Xiao, I'll take you there."

Pei Liang stood up hurriedly and said, "I'll go get the car keys."

"Master Xiao, wait for me."

"sorry to bother you."

Xiao Xiao did not refuse. "Pei You, Pei Liang, goodbye."

"Master Xiao, goodbye."

After watching Master Xiao's figure disappear into the depths of the gate, Pei Liang started the car again.

The car was quiet for a while.

Then, Pei You's puzzled voice sounded, "Brother, why didn't you let me continue asking?"

"Aren't you curious?"

"Of course I'm curious."

"That-"

"But Master Xiao doesn't want to say it."

"what?"

"Master Xiao only vaguely said that the monster got the punishment it deserved. Isn't that why he is unwilling to tell us the specific fate of the monster?"

"In that case, even if you asked at that time, I don't think Master Xiao would answer you."

"It will make the other party unhappy."

"Then we'd better be more conscious."

"is not it?"

".yes."

After a few moments of silence, Pei You had to admit that his brother was right.

She also knew that masters like Master Xiao didn't like people to get to the bottom of things.

In fact, she has always felt that speaking halfway is a very bad habit.

However, all the masters have this habit.

She had felt this was very frustrating when she had read novels and watched cartoons before. Now that she had experienced it herself, she felt even more frustrating.

The girl puffed up her cheeks. "Why can't you just say it all at once?"

"Mysterious."

"Aren't masters mysterious?"

Pei Liang responded with a smile.

Pei You:.
She found herself speechless.

Ok.

indeed so.

"Oh, I forgot to ask one thing!"

Pei You suddenly shouted loudly, scaring Pei Liang so much that his hands holding the steering wheel shook.

"what happened?"

"What did you forget?"

"Important matter."

Pei You responded casually, quickly took out his cell phone and dialed Master Xiao.

She listened attentively to the "beep, beep" sound coming from the microphone.

The moment the call was connected, she couldn't wait to call out, "Master Xiao!"

Xiao Xiao subconsciously moved the phone away from his ear, "What's the matter?"

So exciting.

He always felt that the shy girl he first met was fading in his memory.

Instead, there was this noisy girl.

"Master Xiao, I forgot to ask just now."

Pei You pursed his lips, "It's still in that river, right?"

"You didn't leave?"

She thought of the call for help before it.

She was a little worried. Maybe, because of the intrusion of an uninvited guest, even though the uninvited guest was dealt with by Master Xiao, it would still choose to abandon this residence?

She wanted it to stay in the river.

That way, she can always go find it.

Even though she can't see it now, she can only hear its sound occasionally.

But who can say for sure what will happen next?

She wondered, if her desire to see it was strong enough, would she be able to really see it one day?
Of course, this is just her selfish desire.

She had no influence over its decision.

But if it really left, she also wanted to know where it went.

She didn't want her fate with it to end.

Xiao Xiao smiled knowingly, "No."

“It’s still in that river.”

After all, with the current strength of the drowned ghost, it cannot leave there.

"That's great!"

Pei You got the answer she wanted to hear most, and her face instantly turned into a beautiful smile.

As long as it didn't leave, she had time to make the effort to see it.

Although this doesn't seem to be something that can be achieved just by hard work.

"Master Xiao."

The girl's voice lowered a little. "Tell me, can I see it?"
