Chapter 237: The Third Story
Huang Huang turned his head to look in the direction of the bedroom that Xu Xi was pointing to, and he turned his head in surprise and asked Xu Xi, "Xiao Xi, who is he?"
An eight- or nine-year-old boy walked out of Xu Xi's bedroom, his face always obscured by shadows, and he couldn't see his face clearly.
Xu Xi trembled and watched as the boy walked down the stairs to the hall with a weird laugh, unhurriedly, step by step.
This is not like the murderous Xu Xi who didn't blink, he hid behind Huang Huang like a child (was he still a child).
"You... You saw that, didn't you? He... I don't know him..."
Huang Huang shook his head, turned around and grabbed Xu Xi's shoulders with both hands.
"Xiaoxi, wake up, wake up, wake up, where is anyone? Are you dreaming?"
"What are you talking about? I saw it..."Xu Xi looked at the hall behind Huang Huang and the corridor next to his bedroom in horror, and the strange boy disappeared!
How can it be?
Xu Xi walked cautiously to the center of the hall, obviously he saw that person walking towards him just now! He turned around and grabbed Huang Huang's sleeve and went into his bedroom, but there was still nothing.
Xu Xi felt a splitting headache, he sat on the edge of the bed in a gloomy manner, and muttered, "This is impossible!"
Huang Huang sighed and shook his head, this kid. He leaned over and sat beside Xu Xi, patted Xu Xi's shoulder and said, "Xiao Xi, don't be so surprised, it's safe here, this is my house, and it's your home, you remember, this is the safest place for you." ”
Xu Xi was stunned for a moment, a warm current crossed his heart, and he glanced at Huang Huang very gratefully. It's still unnaturally embarrassing.
The bedroom was cleaned up by Xu Xi, and Huang Huang got up and sat on the sofa opposite the bed. Thinking back to all kinds of things since I met Xu Xi, this boy is full of all kinds of mysteries. She wears women's clothes again, and sometimes she has a sinister aura on her body.
It's just that for some reason, he is inexplicably close to himself, and he tacitly acquiesces in his approach.
It's weird!
Huang Huang left him for a distance, and that chilling feeling ran out again. The lights in the bedroom were turned on, but Xu Xi still saw the strange boy, who was standing in the corner of the room, his hair covering his eyes, his mouth open, and a mouthful of white teeth sneering at him.
Xu Xi turned his head tremblingly. "Look at that!" he pointed to the boy's location and asked Huang Huang, "You... Can't really see it?"
Huang Huang turned his head to see that the bedroom was spacious and bright, and there was no one else at all. He shook his head, frowning.
The little boy was dressed in small pajamas, apparently shabby and shabby because of the age. He raised his head, leaking out his small eyes, and looked at Xu Xi with a strange look. He walked towards Xu Xi step by step, hehe, I want my doll, you are my doll!
"No!" Xu Xi got out of bed, ran to Huang Huang's side, and put his arm around him. "He... He's back!"
Huang Huang grabbed Xu Xi, "Xiao Xi, don't be like this, who is he?"
Xu Xi said: "Let's leave this house first, okay!"
…
Huang Huang deliberately turned up the heating in the hall. The two sat on the couch and covered their legs with blankets. Xu Xi took a sip of the hot milk in his hand, and his mood became soothed.
Huang Huang leaned on the sofa, he will go back to City A tomorrow, and he will probably lose sleep tonight. Xu Xi made such an unknown thing again.
This kid.
"Xiaoxi... Who the hell is that non-existent person? Why are you afraid of this... What happened to you, you... Can you tell me?"
Huang Huang's voice was a little less lazy and more caring. This made Xu Xi feel warm and reassured.
Xu Xi looked at the sycamore outside the window, and some long-lost memories came out. That incident, I always selectively forget.
However, he jumped out once or twice a year, as if to remind himself never to forget.
"He... He's my brother!" Xu Xi said.
"Brother, is it my own brother?" asked Huang Huang in surprise.
"Hmm. Xu Xi said.
"Alas, don't you keep saying that you are an only child?"
Xu Xi shook his head and said, "He only came to this world ten minutes earlier than me. But even if it's only for ten minutes, he's still my brother. He... It was at the age of nine... is dead, and the topic that Mom and Dad have always avoided most is to talk about him. And as their only child, I naturally have to act with them, and sometimes, I myself will believe it and think that he does not exist. Of course, this is also a relief for me. ”
Huang Huang said: "I see. He was silent for a moment, and then continued: "Liberation, why did your brother's death become your relief? And just now, why did you say that he was back? His death..."
"Hmm... Yes, it has to do with me. Huang Huang's words were not finished, but Xu Xi understood what he was going to ask.
Huang Huang was stunned, he didn't expect Xu Xi to be so calm, "Back then, what happened? Can you tell me?"
Xu Xi raised his head, looked at Huang Huang's inquiring eyes, and let out a sigh, I didn't expect that in the end, I was going to confide in him.
At first, he always thought that he would only tell Lin Yu such a secret.
"You... Do you really want to listen to it? It's a very... Not a good story. ”
"It's okay. Huang Huang smiled.
"Perhaps, it will make you change your mind about me. Xu Xi said.
"If that's the case, it's not necessarily a bad thing. Huang Huang said. "Maybe it will give me a better understanding of you. ”
"What's the difference between a little henchman and an NPC?
"Uh..." Huang Huang was a little speechless.
It's also strange to talk about this kind of thing. Sometimes, Xu Xi doesn't want to talk to someone about her secrets all the time. That kind of loneliness is very desperate and denies the existence of the self. Sometimes, it can even be devastating.
However, when he was finally able to reveal those secrets, he was a little confused, and he didn't know where to start.
Huang Huang looked at Xu Xi, who was a little stuck, with a smile, he put his arm around Xu Xi's shoulder, and then encouraged: "It's okay, it's just me and you here, I promise, every word you say will become a secret between us, you can choose to say it, or change your mind now, I won't blame you." ”
"Hmm!" Xu Xi's long eyelashes trembled, and he reached out to grab Huang Huang's arm. He had never had this peace of mind, and even when he was killing, he felt trusted and no longer alone.
Then, he began to talk about it, it was not a long story, but Xu Xi said it carefully.
As the minutes ticked by, I didn't know that the sky was already faintly bright.
Xu Xi finally finished speaking, and Huang Huang let out a sigh of relief. He rubbed his aching head, and his curiosity waned completely after hearing the story. Now, his mind has changed to a different emotion entirely.
