Third child, are you back? "
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 was 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 a positive 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 bit sour.
"...Or did I forget?"
His expression suddenly brightened, and 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 revive forgotten memories.
"very nice."
Zhao Luzheng looked envious, "What if-"
"You still want it?"
Zhuge Yun couldn't help rolling 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.
...
"Third brother, what did you ask again?"
After "crusade" Zhao Luzheng, Zhang Bo looked at Xiao Xiao and asked curiously.
"Yeah, you guys 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 anything to do with monsters when he was a child, so he decided to give up.
It's better to listen to other people's monster stories, 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 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 little 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. Even a child can't be so perfunctory about what he says to others and monsters."
Zhang Bo was about to say someone else, but then he quickly changed his mind when he thought that the other person was a monster.
...
"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 dream, and go out to play happily with my parents."
"After all, what if I stay and don't get the monster?"
Zhuge Yun shrugged, "Isn't that a huge 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 say only holds true if I realize that it's all true."
"But that-"
Zhao Luzheng's voice stopped suddenly.
He realized that the argument would go on forever.
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 burst into laughter.
But then he thought about it, "It seems to mean something like this?"
"It's late, let's get some 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, "It's such a shame... Why are we so worried?"
"Cao Xuan has no idea what's going on."
"It's a good thing 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. Let me see monsters!"
Zhuge Yun lay on the bed, clasped his hands 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 resolution is also to see monsters."
Zhao Luzheng looked serious.
He had seen the monster by chance before, and he tried to "do the same thing" later.
But even though he managed to get sick, he never saw the monster again.
He longed to see the monster again.
...
"you......"
The corners of Zhang Bo's eyes twitched uncontrollably.
But then he clasped his hands together and prayed so loudly that it 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 about it for you. What if God finds you annoying?"
The dormitory fell into silence for an instant.
"Well, that's enough for today."
Zhuge Yun muttered in a low voice, "We'll continue tomorrow."
Xiao Xiao:......
Go read a book.
