Chapter Eighty-Nine: Tracking
The silver bell-like singing reminded Lin Yu of his childhood, and he seemed to be able to sing such a children's song, but his singing voice was definitely not as good as the little girl who was singing. Lin Yu slowed down, his eyes began to look for where the little girl was, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart, could it be that this little girl is also a singer who sings on the street, and her parents are willing to let the girl come out to make money at such a young age?
However, when Lin Yu saw the little girl at the corner of the tunnel for the first time, his heart instantly felt a tingling, because the little girl was not a normal person, her jumping figure was in the soul form, only he could hear her singing, and only he could see her appearance.
The girl didn't seem to realize that she was different from the others, and when she was bouncing around in the tunnel while singing nursery rhymes, she would shyly hide to the side when she noticed a pedestrian passing by, and the song in her mouth would involuntarily stop. When the pedestrians walked away, the girl returned to her unrestrained appearance.
Lin Yu slowly approached during the observation, and he found that the girl had been carefully dressed by her parents, wearing a dress with cute patterns dotted on the skirt, and a pair of small red shoes under her feet, and a pair of exposed calves still retained some baby fat.
The girl's hair is long, probably close to her waist, so that when she jumps, it will sway from side to side on her body. The girl had a red headband on the top of her head, similar to the color of the shoes on her feet, and the bangs on her forehead just reached the upper part of her eyebrows, and her small face was particularly fair and ruddy.
It can be seen from the girl's dress that she was definitely a little princess who was favored by her parents during her lifetime, but for some reason, she actually passed away at such a young age.
Lin Yu had the urge to comfort the girl's soul, he didn't want the girl to continue to wander in the world in such a state, even if the Death Game did not release the corresponding task, Lin Yu was willing to personally take the girl to the soul world.
However, at this time, the task prompt of the mobile phone still sounded, Lin Yu took a brief look, and sure enough, the girl in front of him was the object of his next task.
Lin Yu naturally clicked the button to accept the task, and after putting the phone in his pocket, Lin Yu took the initiative to walk to the little girl's side, he squatted down one meter away from the other party, and asked with a kind smile as much as possible, "Little sister, what's your name?"
Lin Yu felt that he was gentle enough, he had never spoken to anyone so softly as he did now, but what he didn't expect was that the happy smile on the girl's face disappeared suddenly after listening to his question, she looked at Lin Yu with a vigilant look, and then said, "Mom told me, don't talk to strangers!"
The little girl threw down this sentence and quickly ran away, Lin Yu looked at her back as her skirt flew up during the run, but there was a sour feeling in her heart, how can I tell her, even if I meet a bad guy now, I don't have to be afraid?
The little girl ran to the end of the tunnel at first, and after stopping, she looked back at Lin Yu with a cautious face, and found that the other party was walking towards her again, so the little girl had to run up the stairs and came to the street outside.
Lin Yu realized that the little girl might think of himself as a strange uncle, he had no experience with children, and he couldn't tell how old the girl was, he felt that she should be six or seven years old, would a child at this age be afraid of strangers?
Lin Yu didn't dare to follow too closely, for fear of scaring the girl away, and he couldn't be too far away, lest the girl disappear from his field of vision, Lin Yu had to follow the girl about a hundred meters away. When the girl stopped, Lin Yu also stopped immediately, pretending to be looking at the scenery next to the street, and when the girl suddenly trotted forward, Lin Yu could only speed up his pace to catch up.
Originally, it was not so difficult for an adult to follow a child, but the girl was in a state of soul and could not perceive the heat and cold of the outside world, Lin Yu was a living human being, and the vicious sun shone on him for a long time, and after Lin Yu followed him for a while, his entire back was wet.
Lin Yu also thought about putting on his Death Hat when people were not paying attention, so that he could avoid the torment of the high temperature. But once he thought that his image of wearing a hat was seen by the little girl, he might be even more mistaken for a bad uncle, and it would be even more difficult to get close to her at that time, Lin Yu weighed it in his heart, and finally chose to continue to endure.
The little girl walked all the way down the street, she shouldn't know where she was going, and when she passed an ice cream parlor, the little girl stood alone in front of the store for a long time, staring at the various colors of ice cream on the counter, her lips pursed involuntarily, and made a movement similar to swallowing saliva before her death.
Lin Yu silently observed her behind the little girl, judging from the little girl's demeanor, she must have liked to eat ice cream when she was alive, as long as her parents were next to her, maybe the little girl didn't need to speak, her parents would take the initiative to pay for their baby daughter to buy ice cream to eat, but now, obviously there will be no more such opportunities.
The girl stretched out her little hand in front of the glass window, as if she wanted to touch the ice cream in her hand through the glass, but quickly lowered her palm and left the ice cream parlor step by step.
The little girl's lonely expression made Lin Yu feel a little distressed, if he could, he would rather pay for an ice cream for the little girl to eat, but at present, Lin Yu did not have the ability to let the dead soul taste the taste of the world, so for this, Lin Yu could only be powerless.
Throughout the day, the two of them walked through the downtown area, shopping malls, parks... , Lin Yu finally didn't leave the little girl behind, but at the end of the day, he was tired enough, not only failed to help his grandmother buy drugs for diabetes, but he even felt that his two legs were about to break.
Just when Lin Yu stopped to hold his thighs and bent over to gasp for air, he tragically found that the little girl in front of him still had no intention of stopping, and she would not consume any physical strength to walk in her soul state, so even if the little girl walked all day, she still looked as vigorous as the first time she saw it.
Lin Yu really couldn't walk, at the end of this day, he only bought a loaf of bread and a bottle of mineral water on the side of the road to satisfy his hunger, and he didn't have a good meal, plus a long time of walking and the scorching heat, Lin Yu felt that he was not as tired as he was now when he delivered takeout all day.
Unable to stop the little girl from leaving, and there was no way to continue to follow, Lin Yu had to adopt a compromise method and rent a shared bicycle that can be seen everywhere on Yangcheng Street.
Riding a bicycle is always easier than walking, Lin Yu comforted himself like this, but in fact he spent a deposit of three hundred yuan to rent this car, and there was also an expenditure of one yuan per hour, which was what made Lin Yu feel pain.
