At the right time, there was a rustling sound in the grass. Xi Yu immediately let go of his hand, stuffed the gloves into the trash can, and turned around pretending to be nonchalant——
"Sister, what are you looking for?"
The hotel owner's son stood behind Xi Yu like a ghost, holding a brand new ball in his arms.
His dark eyes glowed with an inorganic cold light, and purple blood vessels could be faintly seen on his dusty face. The grin on his lips was as strange as a puppet.
"Sister, this is the new ball that dad cut for me. Do you want to play with me?"
A strong premonition of danger arose in her heart. The boy's word "cut" made Xi Yu suddenly feel chills in her back. She couldn't imagine how long the boy had been looking behind her.
What is the appropriate answer?
As his thoughts raced, Xi Yu froze on the spot for two seconds. The little boy in front of him took a step closer and raised the "ball" in his hand high.
The outline of a human head can be vaguely seen in the undulations wrapped in inferior rubber leather.
We can't let the boy spend time here. He Laoer doesn't know when he will come over again. If he gets caught in the act, who knows what will happen.
"Do you like playing ball very much? It's a pity that my sister has other things to do and can't play with you now."
Xi Yu touched the boy's head as if he didn't notice anything unusual about him, and smoothly passed the blame to Wang Shengchuan and others: "How about this? You go find 203's brother to play with you tonight."
"Sister, what are you talking about?"
Hearing her refusal, the boy was not angry, but chuckled: "They can't play with me. They are sheep that can make rubber balls. How can humans play with sheep."
"sheep?"
Xi Yu paused: "In your eyes, are they sheep?"
The boy continued with a smile in an innocent and matter-of-fact tone: "Yes, they are sheep. Except that my sister is a human like me, they are all sheep."
He hummed a tuneless nursery rhyme: "The sheep with two horns, the crying sheep, the fragile sheep."
"Sister, this is all useless mutton that Dad threw away. Don't come here again. Dad will be angry if he knows you have been here."
The boy seemed not to think that other people were of the same species as him. The cruelty and randomness revealed in the childish voice made people shudder.
"Sister, I heard those bad sheep got together and wanted to kill you."
"Sister is the most interesting person I have met besides Uncle Zhao. Sister, please be careful and don't die casually."
Since Wang Shengchuan and Wang Shengchuan were eyeing the thing in her hand and hit a wall with her again, it was normal for them to conspire with others to kill her.
It's just that people want to kill her, but ghosts come to inform her. This is too funny.
"Thank you. When you get a newer ball, my sister will play with you."
Xi Yu smiled and asked, "Who is Uncle Zhao? Does he also live in the hotel? Why have I never seen him?"
"Uncle Zhao is the one who brings the sheep. He always brings fresh sheep."
The boy clapped his hands happily: "Uncle Zhao is very good!"
When Xi Yu led the boy back to the hotel, the others had left, but there were still two cold steamed buns on the table where they ate.
He Laoer sat behind the counter and didn't care that his son was being held by a strange resident. He sat behind the counter and poured rice wine to drink. The boy saw the untouched steamed buns on the table and commented unhappily. Said: "A sheep is a sheep, a bad sheep who doesn't know how to cherish food."
He Laoer didn't even frown when he heard his son describe the residents as sheep.
Xi Yu smiled and left the boy in the front hall on the first floor, while he came to the door of Granny Lin's room again.
Just when she raised her hand to knock on the door, she suddenly remembered Granny Lin falling asleep.
Under what circumstances would someone say this?
Sure enough, after Xi Yu knocked on the door three times, Granny Lin's hoarse and muddy voice sounded from behind the door: "Sleep, sleep."
The old man was sleepy, and Xi Yu knocked on the door at ten o'clock in the morning. How could Granny Lin be still sleeping at this time?
"Grandma Lin, I am the person who came to see you last night."
Granny Lin repeated again: "Sleep, sleep."
interesting.
Liu Guanglei said that Granny Lin was stupid and stupid, but a truly stupid person would not be able to survive in the Fu'an Hotel.
Has anyone ever asked Granny Lin? What does she know?
Who taught her this life-saving method?
A thin figure wearing a long-sleeved shirt gradually appeared in his mind. Xi Yu tried: "Mr. Lin, she asked me to come to you. Do you remember? She can't speak, but she helped you. .”
The room was quiet for a while, and just when Xi Yu thought that Granny Lin was going to say that she had fallen asleep again, Granny Lin's skinny hands opened the door a crack.
One eye glanced at Xi Yu up and down through the crack in the door. Without a word, he put the silver-gray mobile phone in the floral nightgown into her hand, and quickly closed the door.
"Sleep, sleep."
Granny Lin's calm voice sounded again, but Xi Yu didn't respond.
"What are you doing with this demented old woman?"
He Laoer came over suspiciously: "Everything this old woman said is a lie. She doesn't even know what she is talking about."
She hid her cell phone in the inner pocket of her coat and deliberately waved her two empty hands in front of He Laoer.
"Boss, I'm just staying here for two days. I don't care what you are doing."
Xi Yu stretched out his thumb and pointed it out: "Boss, if you are not blind, you should understand who is really against you."
"Today I saw the short-haired man wearing a black coat sneaking behind the hotel. I followed him and found that he was inexplicably rifling through the garbage piled in the trash can."
Half-truths and half-false lies are the easiest to win people's trust. Xi Yu looked at He Laoer who suddenly fell down, spread his hands and smiled: "I don't know what he saw."
"I like guests like you who are neither curious nor meddlesome."
He Laoer looked at Xi Yu's backpack with fear. Considering that Xi Yu's performance was sincere and he didn't look like a good person, He Laoer did not attack, but only warned meaningfully: "Curiosity will kill the cat. Every year there are always a few overly curious guests who disappear.”
Returning to the room with her cell phone, Xi Yu didn't feel too guilty for cheating Wang Shengchuan. After all, the boy had no need to deceive Xi Yu. Wang Shengchuan was probably plotting her money like Xu Cheng in The Dark Marriage. with props.
A reborn person?
What a cheat.
Xi Yu pressed her aching forehead and sighed.
How famous was I in my previous life?
The old-fashioned mobile phone had no password, but surprisingly it still had power. She lay on the bed and clicked on the text message mailbox that showed it was full.
The most recent text message was on May 2nd.
Eh?
Xi Yu sat up suddenly.
