Xiao Xiao was a little surprised by the sound in the dark room, "You guys haven't slept yet?"
"Not asleep yet."
Zhuge Yun corrected.
Xiao Xiao: "...Oh."
...
"Hey, Third Brother, that elk-like animal that boy Cao Xuan encountered is a monster, right?"
Zhang Bo asked enthusiastically.
He also didn't fall asleep because he kept thinking about it.
Otherwise, he would always sleep on the bed.
Zhuge Yun and Zhao Luzheng also stared at Xiao Xiao with burning eyes.
If it was just a guess before, judging from how Xiao Xiao later spoke to Cao Xuan alone and how Cao Xuan just stopped the third brother (third brother) and said he had something to say, they were already more than half sure.
.
"Um."
Xiao Xiao didn't hide anything and simply gave an affirmative answer.
...
"really."
Zhang Bo and others couldn't help but sit up from the bed.
"Good luck boy."
Zhang Bo smacked his lips.
"Ah, it's really someone else's childhood. Why didn't I meet the monsters I played with when I was a kid?"
Zhuge Yun said "heartbroken" and his tone was a little sour.
"...Or did I forget?"
His expression suddenly brightened, he frowned and began to think hard, "Did anything strange happen to me when I was a child?"
He knocked on his head, trying to recall forgotten memories.
"very nice."
Zhao Luzheng looked envious, "What if-"
"You still want to be?"
Zhuge Yun couldn't help but rolled his eyes and interrupted Zhao Luzheng, "Except for the third child, you are the only one among us who has seen monsters."
"What else do you want?"
"Are you sincerely trying to stimulate me and the boss?"
"Youngest, greed is bad."
Zhang Bo's words are serious and thoughtful.
Zhao Luzheng:......
He'd better shut up.
...
"Lao San, what did you ask again?"
After "crusade" Zhao Luzheng, Zhang Bo looked at Xiao Xiao and asked curiously.
"Yes, you have been chatting for so long."
Zhuge Yun knocked his head until it hurt, but he didn't think of anything that might have had something to do with monsters when he was a child, so he decided to give up.
It's better to listen to other people's stories about monsters, and just think of it as "looking at the plum blossoms to quench your thirst", he comforted himself.
...
Xiao Xiao told Zhang Bo and others the detailed version of the interesting childhood Christmas stories that Cao Xuan told at the dinner table.
"It turns out that Cao Xuan also made such a promise."
Zhang Bo felt a little emotional, and then he frowned, "But he didn't fulfill his promise."
"You really don't know how to cherish someone."
Zhuge Yun felt a bit regretful, "What a rare fate."
"It was just wasted by him."
“It’s not good to break your promise.”
Zhao Lu's words are concise and concise.
"That's right, a man keeps his word, and even a child can't be so perfunctory about what he says to others and monsters."
Zhang Bo was just about to say someone else, but when he thought that the other person was a monster, he quickly changed his mind.
...
"Actually, I can't blame him entirely."
Zhuge Yun said suddenly, his face looking a little thoughtful, "One choice is to go out with your parents for a rare occasion, and the other choice is to keep the promise you made with the monster who doesn't know whether it is true or false."
"If it were me, I might choose to regard monsters as my dreams and go out to play happily with my parents."
"After all, what if I stay and don't wait for the monster?"
Zhuge Yun shrugged, "Isn't that a big loss?"
"But you missed the monster."
"You broke your promise."
Zhao Luzheng and Zhang Bo opened their mouths to refute.
"The problem is I don't know."
Zhuge Yun said plausibly, "I thought everything that happened before was just a dream of mine."
"How can what happened in the dream be taken seriously?"
"People who are serious are idiots, aren't they?"
"What you said only holds true when I realize that everything is true."
"But that-"
Zhao Luzheng's voice stopped suddenly.
He realized that this argument would be endless.
What's more, no matter how they argue here, Cao Xuan has already made his choice.
He couldn't help but sigh, "I always feel a little regretful."
"yes."
Zhuge Yun agreed, "The so-called fate also needs to be grasped by oneself."
"It can only be said that Cao Xuan did not grasp the connection between him and the monster."
"Otherwise, maybe his interactions with monsters will be longer."
"Uh, is this also a kind of... destiny?"
Zhang Bo looked a little confused.
"Pfft~"
Zhuge Yun laughed out loud.
But then he thought about it and asked, "It seems to mean something like this?"
"It's very late, let's rest."
Xiao Xiao came out of the shower and saw that the discussion among several people had come to an end, so he reminded him loudly.
"Well, sleep and sleep."
Zhang Bo lay down and said, "It's such a shame...why are we worrying so much?"
"Cao Xuan has no idea what's going on."
"Fortunately I don't know."
Zhuge Yun pulled the quilt a few times and said, "Otherwise, you won't be upset to death?"
Anyway, if it were him, he would definitely want to knock himself to death at that time.
Christmas happens every year, but Christmas is the only one where you can meet monsters!
...
"Maybe people don't care."
Zhang Bo curled his lips, "Not everyone is interested in monsters."
"......Too."
Zhuge Yun was stunned.
He almost forgot about this possibility.
"If that's the case, why am I so mentally unbalanced?"
"Let people who are not interested in monsters see monsters..."
"What a waste!"
"I'm very interested in monsters, please let me see monsters!"
Zhuge Yun lay on the bed, put his hands together, and prayed devoutly, "This is my New Year's wish."
"What a simple wish, God, you have to help me realize it."
"It's okay even if you see a monster like the youngest."
"I'm not greedy."
"...It's weird that God doesn't care about you."
Zhang Bo twitched the corner of his mouth.
Isn’t this wish simple?
"For God's sake, my New Year's wish is also to see monsters."
Zhao Luzheng looked serious.
He had seen the monster by chance before, and later he tried to "do the same thing".
But even though he managed to get sick, he never saw the monster again.
He hopes to see the monster again.
...
"you......"
The corners of Zhang Bo's eyes twitched uncontrollably.
But then he clasped his hands and prayed, so loudly that he suppressed the voices of Zhuge Yun and Zhao Luzheng.
Xiao Xiao:......
"Pfft~"
"Hiss~"
Both the little white fox and the white snake couldn't help but find it a bit funny and couldn't help laughing.
"What an interesting human being."
Xiao Xiao shook his head and climbed the stairs to bed.
"That's enough for you, but it won't be good if God finds you annoying."
The bedroom instantly fell into silence.
"Well, today's portion is enough."
Zhuge Yun muttered in a low voice, "We will continue tomorrow."
