Chapter 69: Cute Little Girl
I hurriedly covered my right eye, and the only thing left was nothingness and the hallway lights that were gradually dying out towards me, and nothing else was in sight of the right eye.
In front of me, it was like a horror movie being staged, the lights disappeared quickly, accompanied by the icy cold, the chill seemed to come from the cold winter wax moon, almost freezing me.
I had to retreat again, even ready to turn and run away.
"Squeak"
A door next to him was suddenly pushed open.
A little girl like a little angel stuck out her head and tilted her head to look at me.
I was also startled by her, and I couldn't help but stop retreating.
"Big brother, grandma said you can't go out at night." The milky voice, combined with the big black and white eyes, made my fear disappear a lot.
"Thank you, I'll go back." I scanned the depths of the hallway and saw that the lights that had gone out had stopped in place.
"Big brother, doesn't he have nowhere to go? I'm telling you, it's very dangerous in the building, and people often go missing here. The little girl looked serious, and her little head was slightly tilted.
I covered my right eye and looked over with my left eye, and saw that the little girl had not changed much, but still looked so cute.
Seeing this, I breathed a sigh of relief, I really didn't want such a cute little girl to be obsessed.
"Is there anyone else in my little sister's house?"
"No, my grandma is out, is my big brother going to come in and play?"
I pondered for a moment, but decided to go in and learn a little bit about the building.
It was so unexpected that I thought the building was just a company office, or a dilapidated place that had been abandoned for a long time, but I really didn't expect it to be a place where people lived.
Since it is inhabited, it is necessary to find out what happened here from the mouths of these residents.
But I don't know why, I always felt that something was wrong, as if something I hadn't noticed.
"Squeak"
The old wooden door opened with a tooth-aching sound.
Probably because someone was playing with her, the little girl happily pushed the door open completely.
The door slowly opened, and through the crack in the open door, I could see a dim yellow light in the room.
This is a living room, with normal tables, chairs and benches, just like ordinary people.
"Smack"
The lights in the hallway that had been suspended began to go out again, and at an extremely fast speed.
It was as if something had spotted me and was speeding up at me.
I didn't have time to think about it, so I rushed into the room and closed the door with my hand.
The moment the door closed, I seemed to see the door of the opposite room open.
I'm not too sure, because I closed the door too quickly, but at the moment when the door closed completely, maybe because of the light and shadow of the closed door, there was an illusion.
I had just entered the room, and before I had time to look around, a strange smell permeated the tip of my nose, the smell of some kind of food.
It's so fragrant, it's my first feeling, I've never smelled it before, I can't help but take a few more breaths.
"Big brother, sit down, your hands are so cold." The little girl took my hand and told me to sit down.
The warm little palms wrapped around my fingers, making my fast-beating heart feel stable.
"What did your grandma cook? How can it be so fragrant? ”
"I don't know, grandma put the pot on and left, and she hasn't come back for a long time." The little girl sat next to me a little sadly, and the happiness on her face became low.
"It's okay, grandma will definitely come back." I rubbed my hand on the little girl's head, and I didn't know what was on the little girl's head, and it felt a little slimy on my fingers.
"Big brother, you'll accompany me and wait for grandma to come back, won't you?"
Under the gaze of the little girl's black and white eyes, I nodded hesitantly.
I'm just a participant in the game, and although there is no time limit for this game, I can't stay too long, and I'll leave sooner or later.
But if I want a girl to be at home, I guess grandma won't be away for long, so I will nod.
Such a cute girl, I can't bear to deceive her, and I don't want her to be sad and disappointed.
"Little sister, do you have no other relatives besides grandma?" I leaned back on my side, trying to see what was on my hands.
The little girl suddenly hugged my arm, and her small body began to tremble.
"You, what's wrong with you?"
I'm a little strange, just mentioning her other relatives, how can she be scared like this?
She hugged my arm tightly, and I could clearly feel her small body shaking violently.
"Big brother, you, you won't leave me, you won't beat me, and bully me, right?"
"Of course, my little sister is so cute, how can I bully you, let alone beat you." My right hand was held down by her, and I could only slap her back with my left hand.
"Big brother lied, you didn't even ask my name, and you didn't intend to treat me as a sister at all."
"Okay, it's all my brother's fault, so my little sister should tell me, what's your name?"
"My name is Xiaolan, and my name was given by my grandmother, what about my brother?"
"My name is Cao Taiyi, and my name is ......"
I fell silent when I said this, because I didn't want to lie to Xiaolan, I didn't know if my name was actually given by my father.
Because I was thrown into the streets since the day I was born, I never saw my parents, let alone any other relatives.
"Cao Taiyi, brother, your name sounds good."
"Well, you're pretty named, too." Being hugged by Xiaolan's arm, I always felt that the relatives she was afraid of might be some clue in the building.
It's just that seeing her frightened look, I was embarrassed to continue to ask, silently remembering this matter in my heart, and planned to wait for Grandma Xiaolan to come back and have a good chat with her.
"Big brother, do you really want to know about my other relatives?"
Xiaolan looked up at me, her big eyes shining with a different kind of brilliance.
"If you're not afraid, just talk about it, anyway, it's okay for us to sit, just tell each other stories and pass the time."
I twitched my arm twice, and found that the little girl was holding it so tightly that she couldn't pull her arm out at all.
"Well, big brother is right, I'll tell you about my father."
Xiaolan's speech makes me feel very weird, children of her age, when talking about their father, should be full of longing or affection.
But when Xiaolan said the word father, it was very unfamiliar, and even vaguely, there was an inexplicable hatred.
I glanced at her and didn't stop her.
She was finally no longer afraid, and I had no reason to deliberately provoke her fear, and I was going to continue listening to her.
"My grandmother said that when my father was young, he was a very timid and cowardly person, he was afraid of everything, so he stayed at home every day, and he never had any friends, and he didn't have a girlfriend until he was thirty."
Cowardly and afraid of everything?
