Chapter 269: Adopters
"I saw the kid in my dreams." Star Swirl said thoughtfully.
"Oh?" With his blue eyes twining, Mr. X looks at Star Swirl with interest.
"In my early morning dream, I saw him lying in a huge coffin, seemingly just asleep."
Outside the window, there was a sudden gust of wind, and a few scattered raindrops were sprinkled. The sky became dark, the air was filled with hazy water vapor, and the people in front of him were as quiet as an abyss.
"You care?" He asked in a low voice.
Star Swirl nodded slightly, "What happened in my dreams was never accidental. β
Mr. X stood up from his seat, straightened his collar, and walked towards the exam door.
"Where are you going?" Star Swirl hurriedly followed.
The person in front of him didn't answer, but deliberately slowed down his pace, keeping the same pace as the small feet that were less than three inches.
---
In the police station's office, the young police officer, Xiao Wang, brought two glasses of water and placed them in front of Star Swirl, sighing to himself, fortunately, the person who came was not the yellow hair.
"Not long after I came from the clinic, why did you come to the door again?" Bai Xiaohan was a little surprised by Mr. X's appearance.
"Somebody cares about that kid." Mr. X said lightly, but Star Swirl skipped a brow, sensing a hint of impatience in his tone.
"It seems that you were also depressed by that bear child," Bai Xiaohan laughed, "What did he say to you?" β
"Not really." His tone was extremely light, but it was full of gnashing of teeth.
Star Swirl's curious gaze swept back and forth between the two of them, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Teacher Bai, what's the matter with that kid?" β
Bai Xiaohan thought for a while and replied, "Voiceover, that's what it feels like." A sentence came out of the side coldly, and when you reacted, the kid looked like he didn't care about it. The point is that the words spoken are like the tip of a knife stabbed in your heart, really fast, accurate, and ruthless. β
"Just a teenager... Can you have this ability? Star Swirl suspected that Bai Xiaohan was exaggerating.
Bai Xiaohan pouted at Mr. X: "Look at him, his face is black like this and he says, 'No', X is not something that anyone can provoke, let alone this kind of little kid." β
"Speculating on the malice in the hearts of those around you?" Star Swirl suddenly remembered what Mr. X had said, looked around and asked, "What about the kid?" β
"Send it to the adopter, or you will keep it for me?"
"Found an adopter so soon?" Star Swirl thought it was incredible.
"After he escaped from his home, he was taken in by a man, and the kid was quite capable of running, and he actually ran to the riverside apartment two districts away."
"Taken in by a man?" Star Swirl frowned, feeling that things were going in strange directions.
"It just so happens that you also know this person, it is Han Dongzhi."
As soon as the words came out, Star Swirl was stunned, the harmless writer? How could he, an otaku who lives alone, take in a boy in his teens? Cultivation game?
Bai Xiaohan smiled: "When I saw him standing with Haorui, I had the same surprised expression as you. But there is no special reason for it, just because he picked up the homeless Hao Rui outside the wonton shop, and then the sympathy overflowed, and after inviting him to eat a wonton, the child followed him to the door of the house. β
"Sounds like you've picked up a stray cat." Star Swirl sighed.
A smile crossed Mr. X's lips, and he met Star Swirl's gaze, both of which had a different meaning than before.
"In fact, Han Dongzhi didn't know Haorui's family situation, and after I briefly described it to him, he promised to take Haorui in for a while before finding a legal adopter."
"Why don't you send it to a welfare home?" Star Swirl is puzzled.
"Do you remember that Hao Rui's parents said that he had a slight desire to destroy? Welfare homes generally do not accept children with such special mental conditions. β
"But Han Dongzhiβ" Star Swirl couldn't help but worry a little about him at the thought of that innocent face.
"So what the hell are you worried about the boy or that otaku writer?" Mr. X's good-looking eyebrows were raised, and there was a bit of ridicule in his tone.
Star Swirl smiled slyly, "I also want to learn the thorny skills in that kid's words, and by the way, see how Han Dongzhi endured him." β
"Do you want me to come with you?" Bai Xiaohan asked.
"No need, do you want to see me provoked?" The blue eyes were misty, like a thin veil, and she couldn't see his eyes clearly, but she knew that under the thick long eyelashes, there were other things that ordinary people couldn't see, which restrained her heart.
Star Swirl and Mr. X drive to the Riverside Apartment.
On the way, Star Swirl tries to find something to talk about to get Mr. X's attention, "I didn't expect the school to be so generous, and after a long week's vacation, the summer vacation is not far away." β
"Hmm." Mr. X replied lightly.
"I found that primary school students are the happiest, there is no pressure, and the worries are just simple things like too much homework, and the parents are still young, and everything in the future is worth looking forward to."
"So, do you feel happy?"
"At this time?" Star Swirl thought for a moment and nodded earnestly.
The car was parked in the underground parking lot of the Riverside Apartment, and Star Swirl pointed to a busy figure outside the window and sighed, "Isn't that Han Dongzhi?" β
Opening the car door, Star Swirl trotted forward and patted Han Dongzhi on the shoulder, "Hey, what are you doing?" β
Han Dongzhi seemed to be frightened, and the cardboard box he was holding in his hand fell to the ground with a "bang", and various figures were scattered all over the ground.
"I'm scared to death," Han Dongzhi looked at Star Swirl's small face, and then looked at the limited edition figures of One Piece that had broken underground, pursed his lips, and never said anything to blame.
Star Swirl knew she was wrong, stuck out her tongue and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect you to react so much. β
The energy lock on his wrist vibrated slightly.
The boy poked his head out of a white SUV next to him and asked expressionlessly, "Brother Dong Solstice, aren't you leaving?" β
"Hao Rui." Star Swirl calls out the boy's name and meets the dark eyes again.
"Kid, do you know Haorui?" Han Dongzhi was a little surprised, he couldn't even remember who the little girl in front of him was just now.
"The child is not sensible, I will compensate you for these figurines at the original price." Mr. X coughed lightly and said lightly.
"You areβ" Han Dongzhi's gaze fell on the face of the man behind Star Swirl, and the pair of blue eyes that looked like pure glass were very eye-catching.
"I'm Haorui's psychiatrist, and Officer Bai took him to see him in the morning."
Han Dongzhi nodded knowingly, and asked a little nervously, "Hao Rui, he... Is the situation serious? β
