It's useless for him to think about things here...
What you don't know is what you don't know.
but……
Ah Jiu......
The boy thought of the little white fox.
The little white fox last night made a deep impression on him.
Even though he was severely frightened by the little white fox.
but……
"...It's really just..."
The boy frowned.
He seemed to be thinking about the right words.
"...a strange little white fox."
…
At noon, the boy ordered takeout.
This time, he ordered a lot of takeout.
After resting, my appetite has improved.
Unexpectedly, there was someone who appeared at the door of the room together with the delivery man...
"Grandpa Wang?"
…
The boy looked at the familiar figure behind the delivery man with some surprise.
"How did you come?"
Then he realized that his words seemed to indicate that he was not welcoming the old man, so he immediately changed his words and asked, "Have you had lunch?"
…
"have eaten."
The old man nodded.
…
"Want to come in?"
Seeing that the old man seemed to have no intention of leaving, the boy took the takeout bag from the delivery man and invited the old man to come to his home.
…
Old people are not polite to boys either.
He made room for the delivery man and walked into the boy's room.
…
The old man stopped at the entrance.
…
"Grandpa Wang, sit down."
The boy motioned to the old man to sit down on the chair.
"There are no shoe covers at home."
"Just keep your shoes on."
…
The old man sat down on a chair near the door.
"You sit down too."
The old man asked the boy to stop standing.
Sit down like him.
"Do you mind if you chat with me for a while during lunch?"
…
The old man looked at the boy.
I found that compared to yesterday, the boys' condition today is much better visible to the naked eye.
He was surprised.
"Xiao Ding, did you have a good rest last night?"
…
"Um."
The boy nodded.
Although he has many problems...
Although Xiao Xiao's leaving without saying goodbye left all his questions unanswered...
but……
The boy curled his mouth.
"I had a good rest last night."
…
"Ouch."
A boy's face can't deceive anyone.
A boy's tone of voice can't deceive anyone either.
The old man grinned.
"Good boy."
The old man reached out and patted the boy on the shoulder.
"Good boy..."
The old man said it again.
"Very good."
"That's great……"
…
The boy was a little moved.
"Thank you, Grandpa Wang."
Grandpa Wang has always cared about him.
This is also a very important reason why he has been able to persist for so long without going crazy.
…
"no need thank me?"
The old man waved his hand.
"I didn't do anything."
"If I could help you, I would have done so..."
But all the old man can do is comfort the boy every time he sees him.
…
"No……"
The boy shook his head.
The old man gave him a lot of moral support...
…
The old man smiled.
I know boys are polite to him.
He no longer struggled with the problem and asked curiously, "Did that young man really help you solve the problem yesterday?"
"so smart……"
The old man sighed.
This is too awesome.
He didn't even know how the other party helped the boy solve the problem...
after all……
He didn't hear the boy's crow.
It seems like this...
The young man heard the cock crow from the boy's mouth.
The old man was inexplicably relieved at this.
Although I didn’t tell the boy explicitly-
After all, boys are in a bad enough mood.
He didn't want to make the boy's already bad mood even worse because of his unfounded guesses.
But the old man really doubted...
Are boys hallucinating?
No one except the boy heard the crow of the chicken in the boy's mouth...
This is too strange.
It’s not like boys live alone in some remote place.
They live in a unit building.
The sound came from somewhere...
Is it something that only boys can hear but not other residents in their unit?
Is there such a magical place?
…
Now I know that the boy’s problem has been solved…
The prerequisite for solving the boy's problem is to hear the rooster's crow that is so noisy that the boy cannot sleep peacefully, and to solve the source of the rooster's crow...
The old man silently relieved his guess in his heart.
Um.
The sounds the boys heard were real.
This also made the old man more and more curious.
He couldn't wait to know what happened last night after he left?
Xiao Xiao...
He remembered the young man's name.
How did little friend Xiao Xiao do it?
…
The boy's expression became a little tangled and strange.
The old man looked at it stunned.
"What's wrong?"
"Why is this expression?"
"Isn't the problem solved?"
"Didn't you have a good sleep last night?"
The old man didn't understand the reason for the boy's behavior at this time.
…
The boy smiled bitterly.
"Um……"
"As far as the results are concerned..."
"My problem is solved."
…
"Any other questions?"
The old man was very confused.
“Wouldn’t it be good if the problem is solved?”
…
"yes."
After a brief moment of confusion, the boy nodded, "It'll be good if the problem is solved."
"I just have a lot of problems myself..."
…
The boy pursed his lips.
"Grandpa Wang, will you be okay next?"
…
"fine."
The old man quickly replied, "What can a retired old man like me do?"
…
The boy smiled.
"Then let me tell you..."
"It might be a long story..."
…
The boy told the old man everything that happened last night.
Including Xiao Xiao telling him that he was special and that what he heard was the cry of monsters...
He even told the old man that he was scared by the little white fox.
…
Boys try to be concise and to the point.
But I found it difficult to do it.
He couldn't help but add a lot of his own thoughts.
This made this narration go on for a long time.
…
The old man is a good listener.
He also has questions.
There are times when I want to speak.
But the boy was too excited.
The almost intermittent output gave the old man little chance to speak.
I can only respond a few times when the boy needs a response.
"Um."
"ah?"
"Really?"
"oh."
…
The boy finally finished his story.
There was an inexplicable silence in the living room.
…
The old man reminded the boy, "Drink some water."
"After talking so much, are you thirsty?"
…
The boy seemed to realize something.
His face turned a little red.
certainly.
It was also partly because I was so excited about what I just said that I blushed.
…
The boy grabbed the glass and drank several large gulps of boiled water.
Don't say...
He is really thirsty.
His voice felt a little hoarse.
…
"Grandpa Wang."
After putting down the water glass, the boy felt embarrassed.
