Chapter Ninety-Six: There Is a Mystery in the House
Because she knew the identity of the child very well, Bai Xue didn't feel scared much this time, she strode towards the child, trying her best to make her footsteps clear and loud, for fear that in such an environment, if the child was too focused on playing, he didn't even know that he was close, and he might be scared if he was cold, after all, he would feel a little hairy before.
It turns out that this child is much more promising than Bai Xue, I don't know if it's because he has been living in such an environment, he seems to have become accustomed to everything around him, and when he heard the footsteps, he just glanced back, and did not make any other reaction, so he continued to slap the ball himself.
"Xiaojie, hello!" Bai Xue walked up to the child, bent down and whispered hello to him, she is not a person who knows how to get along with children, from childhood to adulthood, she has always been the youngest among the children of relatives in the family, so there is too little experience in this area.
The boy named Yao Xiaojie heard Bai Xue talking to him, stopped slapping the ball, and stood there tilting his head to look at Bai Xue, a pair of big eyes flickering in the dark, like two little stars.
"Police. After he looked at Bai Xue for a long time, he probably finally remembered who the other party was, but this kid didn't talk much, and he was quite a bit of a fan of cherishing words like gold, and after remembering who Bai Xue was, he only said two words.
Bai Xue already felt very satisfied, after all, everything was difficult at the beginning, and now that Yao Ziqiang has not come back, he has established a good interaction with Yao Xiaojie, which may also be helpful for dealing with Yao Ziqiang in the future. Judging from the last time they had a hurried encounter, this father and son belong to the category that doesn't talk much and has certain obstacles in social interaction.
"Yes, we met last time. Bai Xue squatted down beside Yao Xiaojie with a smile, "Why are you playing here by yourself? Don't you go to kindergarten?"
Yao Xiaojie shook his head: "Winter vacation." ”
"The winter vacation of kindergarten is so long now!" Bai Xue couldn't laugh or cry, she looked around at the dimly lit corridor around her, "Then you usually play here by yourself, aren't you afraid?"
"Dad is busy," Yao Xiaojie held the ball, looked at Bai Xue a little crampedly, although his words were concise, he also answered Bai Xue's questions in place, "I'm not afraid, it's all dead." ”
When Bai Xue heard what he said, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. Look at the consciousness of other people's children! Everyone knows that there is nothing to be afraid of, in contrast, I am an adult who has been poisoned by all kinds of horror movies before entering the industry, but I am a little embarrassed, and my mind is full of some pseudo-scientific imagination!
"Well, you're right. Bai Xue nodded to Yao Xiaojie, "But won't you be bored alone?" I happen to have something to find your father for a while, so can I chat with you?"
Yao Xiaojie didn't speak, just looked at Bai Xue with such a blank face, quietly.
Bai Xue felt that this child was probably unwilling, and now this reaction may be a sign of rejection.
As a result, just when she had no hope, Yao Xiaojie suddenly walked to her and stretched out her hand to Bai Xue, Bai Xue subconsciously reached out to hold the child's slightly cool little hand, Yao Xiaojie immediately pulled her in the direction of the big warehouse where he and his father Yao Ziqiang lived, walked to the door, pulled Bai Xue with one hand, and pulled the key from under the collar with the other hand to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, the light was much better, although the conditions of the temporary housing converted from the large warehouse where Yao Ziqiang and his son Yao Xiaojie lived were still quite difficult, but at least there was a large window in the house, which could have a lot of light coming in, and it looked much better than the dim and dark place outside.
Yao Xiaojie has been holding Bai Xue's hand, clenching it tightly, not letting go, I don't know if it's because no one usually pays attention to him, he always wants to play alone and lonely, and now someone is finally willing to talk to him, willing to play with him, he feels very happy and happy in his heart, so he refuses to let go, for fear that as soon as he lets go of Bai Xue, he will change his mind and leave.
But even though his tightly clenched little hands had basically revealed his inner feelings, Yao Xiaojie's face was still calm, and he couldn't see any mood fluctuations.
Bai Xue can only secretly sigh in her heart, the child is really influenced by the ears and eyes of the adults around him, and the influence is too great! When other people's children are three or four years old, it is estimated that it is the time when they are as quiet as a rabbit and move like a crazy rabbit, and they have endless experiences, endless words, and endless noise all day long.
As a result, Yao Xiaojie turned out to be so quiet, as if it was a TV set with the mute function turned on.
This is also the first time Bai Xue walked into the room where Yao Ziqiang lived, the last time she glanced at the door, she had already seen the simplicity and messiness of this room, this time she walked in, Bai Xue felt that except for a double bed made of two single beds in the room, it didn't look like a place to live at all.
It's not that the place where you live must be luxurious and comfortable, but at least it has to have a little bit of life, not like this, there are takeaway lunch boxes and instant noodle bowls everywhere, which looks much more sloppy than the men's dormitories in the university.
Bai Xue looked at the child in front of him who didn't speak with some sympathy, and couldn't bear to pull his hand back, so he could only let him pull himself directly towards the house, and walked to the front of the wall, only to see clearly that there was a white curtain hanging on the wall, and there was a door behind the curtain.
Yao Xiaojie pulled Bai Xue with one hand, and stretched out to the door with the other: "Inside, it's fun." ”
He still didn't say much, but fortunately, the meaning was relatively clear, and it was obvious that there was something in it that he thought was fun, so he pulled Bai Xue and wanted to share it with her.
The door was not locked, Yao Xiaojie opened it as soon as he pushed it, Bai Xue was pulled by him and walked through the door curtain, and as soon as he entered, the whole person was dumbfounded.
Who's three or four-year-old children will think skeletons and human specimens are funny!
