That ghost owl is quite smart, and it is naturally easier to seduce a simple-minded child than a mature adult.
It's just that it's too greedy.
If it is the soul of a person who has just died, it will be taken away as soon as it is taken.
It's just for eating.
And he may have the right to have no reason to blame the ghost owl for hunting for survival.
But taking away the souls of healthy children is going too far.
Xiao Xiao felt that the spiritual power in his body had increased a little bit more, and the smile at the corner of his mouth deepened a little bit.
…
"That's it."
Chi's father answered the words in a somewhat sarcastic manner, and then reacted, "A bad-hearted guy?"
He suddenly remembered what Master Xiao said before that his daughter's temperament changed drastically because she was entangled in dirty things. Could it be that the children in the ward were also entangled in dirty things and were getting weaker day by day?
Therefore, even though they used all scientific methods, they still could not find anything.
...
This kind of speculation was not unheard of by anyone later, but no one took it seriously.
If he hadn't gotten to know Master Xiao because of his daughter's affairs, Chi's father would at most have laughed off such rumors, and might even have been a little unhappy.
In his view, it was obviously the doctor's own incompetence that caused the problem, but he still wanted to blame it on something that was not real. This was obviously a way of evading responsibility.
And those who do this are both despicable and cowardly.
Chi's father never had a good impression of such people.
…
However, after what happened with Xiuxiu and getting to know Master Xiao, he was no longer so sure. Maybe there were indeed some things in the world that were not done by humans.
…
"Um."
"A wicked and greedy guy."
Xiao Xiao replied seriously.
"Then it..."
Chi Xiuke's eyes sparkled, and he probably guessed the fate of the evil-minded guy in Xiao Xiao's mouth.
Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows, bent his eyes downwards, and made a motion of slitting his throat.
Oh~, the Chi brothers and sisters nodded understandingly.
After Chi's father was stunned for a moment, he couldn't help but laugh a little.
In his impression, even if it was not obvious, Chi's father, who had been in a high position for many years and was good at observing people's hearts, could still faintly detect the calm and alienation under Master Xiao's gentle and polite appearance. There was always a certain coldness in his leisurely words and deeds.
It's rare to see Master Xiao act like this... childishly.
…
The Chi brothers and sisters knew enough not to ask any more questions. Their previous experience told them that Master Xiao had already told them everything they were supposed to know, and they couldn't even ask him what they were not supposed to know.
Chi's father's many years of experience in life are not comparable to those of the Chi brothers and sisters who were still students. Although he did not spend much time with Master Xiao, he also knew what is enough.
Even though Master Xiao's expression remained calm, Father Chi understood that this topic had to come to an end.
However, Chi's father thought for a while, and finally asked for confirmation just in case, "Master Xiao, will the children not get into trouble again?"
"I don't know about other things, but this will never happen again."
Xiao Xiao gave an affirmative answer.
Monsters are not cabbages. Otherwise, powerful monsters would have ruled the world long ago. How could humans be the dominant ones in the world?
Moreover, monsters are very territorial.
He has been feeling carefully since entering this hospital. Except for this ghost owl, he has not found any trace of other monsters, nor has he smelled the breath of other monsters.
…
"That's good, that's good."
Chi's father finally relaxed completely and relaxed his stiff back slightly.
"Thank you, Master Xiao."
Chi's father stood up again and solemnly thanked him.
"Uncle Chi, you are too polite."
Xiao Xiao smiled and shook his head.
"It should."
Chi's father also relaxed his expression and laughed.
"Well, Master Xiao, thank you."
"Thank you, Master Xiao."
The Chi brothers and sisters spoke one after another. They didn't notice anything unusual about Chi's father during this period of time because they were living on campus at the university. When they came home and noticed this time, they thought it was because Chi's father was too tired from work during this period, so they didn't take it too seriously.
.
They blamed themselves a little, and Chi's father was obviously suffering a lot during this time.
At home, he just dealt with it lightly.
Even Chi's mother didn't realize that Chi's father had encountered a problem.
Now that the problem has been solved, Chi's father can finally let go of the burden in his heart.
The Chi family brothers and sisters showed big grateful smiles to Xiao Xiao.
…
Xiao Xiao couldn't resist the kindness, and after having dinner at the Chi family, he said goodbye to Chi's father and mother, got into the Chi family's car, and went back to school with the Chi family's brothers and sisters.
Originally, Chi's father wanted to send them off in person, but Xiao Xiao and the Chi brothers and sisters unanimously rejected it.
I'm worried that after working so hard for so many days, it's time for Chi's father to take a good rest.
…
Before Xiao Xiao left, Chi's father handed Xiao Xiao a check.
Xiao Xiao did not answer, but said lightly: "Chi Xiuchuan, Chi Xiuke is my friend."
The implication is that helping his friend's father was a voluntary act, not a transaction, so he didn't charge money.
Chi's father laughed and said, "I know, but uncle can't ask you to work in vain."
"It's not much money, I just want to express my feelings."
"Just think of it as the red envelope your Uncle Chi gave you."
Chi's mother answered.
"Well, Master Xiao, just accept it."
Chi Xiuchuan also helped.
"Yes, Master Xiao, it's rare for dad to give out red envelopes to people."
Chi Xiuke had a playful expression and winked at Xiao Xiao with her big almond eyes, which was very cute.
Since the Chi family had said so, Xiao Xiao did not refuse and simply accepted the check.
Seeing this, a trace of satisfaction flashed across Chi's father's brows.
"By the way, Master Xiao."
Father Chi suddenly remembered something and patted his children on the shoulders, "Just call them Achuan and Xiuxiu."
"Yeah, being called by your full name is too unfamiliar."
Chi's mother also smiled and said.
Chi's father and Chi's mother are happy to see their children become friendly with Master Xiao, and naturally hope that their relationship will get better and better.
Having such a master beside their children makes them feel more at ease.
Xiao Xiao was stunned by this request, but then he agreed with a smile.
It was just a title, so naturally Xiao Xiao would not refute Chi's father and Chi's mother's wishes.
…
After getting off the car, people were coming and going in the school, which was very lively.
The street lights cast a faint halo, adding a touch of confusion and warmth to the dim night.
The cold air made the Chi brothers and sisters wince as they got out of the car.
"so cold."
Chi Xiuke pulled the scarf around her neck, covering half of her face, her big almond eyes gleaming.
Chi Xiuchuan couldn't help but stretched out his hand to rub his lovely sister's head, and then said: "Then let's go quickly, we will be warm when we get back to the dormitory."
"Um."
Chi Xiuke nodded obediently.
"Let's go."
Xiao Xiao had a slight smile in his eyes as he watched the interaction between the brother and sister.
