"grandmother……"
Doudou couldn't help but squat on the ground and started sobbing.
"Doudou, if you have any unspeakable secrets in your heart, just tell me and uncle can help you solve it."
I patted Doudou on the shoulder and said softly.
"You, can you really help me?"
Doudou raised his head and asked.
"Well, uncle is someone who specializes in helping people solve their problems, otherwise your father wouldn't have invited me to come to you."
I said with a smile.
"I, Gululu..."
Doudou was about to say something, but his stomach made an inappropriate noise.
"Uncle, I haven't eaten for three days and I'm so hungry now. Can you take me to get something to eat?"
Doudou asked with a pleading look on his face, covering his withered belly.
I smiled lightly: "Of course, no problem. Just tell me what you want to eat."
"I want a burger, is that okay?"
"Come on, let's go now!"
I directly took Doudou's cold little hand and walked outside the park.
There was a McDonald's less than two kilometers away from the park. After I walked in, I found a seat near the corner and asked Doudou to sit opposite.
"Two big Big Macs."
I said to the waiter who came over.
The waiter looked at me in surprise, then turned and left.
After a while, two burgers were placed on the table. I pushed one of them in front of Doudou and started eating on my own.
"Eat it. If it's not enough, I'll order more."
"That's enough, thank you uncle!"
After seeing the chicken drumstick burgers on the table, Doudou immediately smiled, picked up a burger and took a bite.
While I was eating, I was chatting with Dou Dou. The customers next to me couldn't help but cast curious glances at me.
Although Doudou is sitting opposite, ordinary people cannot see him because Doudou is a ghost!
To them, I was talking to myself, probably someone who was mentally ill.
I found Doudou's soul, but didn't see his body, which meant that Doudou was dead, so I felt more pity for this child.
After devouring the meal, Doudou patted his belly with satisfaction: "Uncle, I'm full."
At this moment, from the perspective of outsiders, although the burger opposite me has not moved, it has become dull, like food that has become rotten after being stored for a few days.
"Doudou, your father told me that you once said that your stepmother wanted to harm you and grandma. Can you tell me why you have such thoughts?"
I ordered another Coke, pushed it in front of Doudou, and asked him.
Doudou now fully trusted me. He took a big sip of Coke and then slowly told me his opinion.
"My father came from the countryside. He gradually became rich in business, but the relationship with my mother became colder day by day. Later, he met Liu Xiuya who sang in a bar, so he abandoned my mother and married Liu Xiuya. When he returned home, he gave birth to a younger brother for me.”
"And my mother was in a car accident and died shortly after the divorce."
Doudou's eyes were red: "At home, I always dislike Liu Xiuya, and she doesn't like me at all. The two of us have been in a cold war, and neither of us pays attention to the other."
"In order to be out of sight and out of mind, I asked my father to send me to a boarding school. I didn't go home for a long time. Once, when the school was on holiday, it happened to catch up with my father going on a business trip. It was inevitable that I would live in the same room as Liu Xiuya. Under the eaves.”
"That night, I finished my meal early and went back to my room. I played games for a while and then fell asleep. At midnight, I got up to go to the bathroom. When I came back, I heard Liu Xiuya in my brother's room, seemingly What are you whispering..."
Recalling the scene at that time, Doudou was still a little scared, and her face turned pale.
"My younger brother Maomao is just under a year old and can't speak. There is no one else at home. Who will Liu Xiuya be talking to?"
"Out of curiosity, I quietly approached the door. Through the crack in the door, I saw Liu Xiuya kneeling on the ground. There was a box in front of her, and inside the box, there was a dead cat!"
I couldn't help but frown: "Then did you hear clearly what she was saying?"
"I only heard a few words. She seemed to be praying to the dead cat, saying that the dead cat would appear as soon as possible and let grandma and I disappear from this house as soon as possible!"
Having said this, Doudou couldn't help but hug his shoulders tightly and tremble.
"Doudou, you didn't tell your father about this later?"
I couldn't help but ask doubtfully.
"Since marrying Liu Xiuya, my father has been obedient to her words and has no chance of listening to me. It's all in vain that I say it. He just thinks I'm crazy and doesn't take it to heart at all!"
"Later, because I was afraid, I asked my father to take my grandma over, but I didn't expect that Liu Xiuya would actually attack my grandma..."
Doudou clenched his fists and said bitterly.
After listening to Doudou's story, I roughly understood what happened, and I concluded in my heart that the key to finding the cat demon should be Liu Xiuya!
"Doudou, I am completely on your side. Do you want to go home and see grandma?"
I asked Doudou.
"Actually, I tried to go back, but I don't know what happened. Once I got to the downstairs of my house, I couldn't go up again..."
Doudou said with a bitter look on his face.
"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, you can go home."
I smiled lightly, already expecting this to be Liu Xiuya's trick.
"Uncle, are you telling the truth?"
Doudou couldn't help but open his eyes wide and asked expectantly.
"Of course, aren't we good friends? Friends should treat each other with sincerity and not lie."
I said with a smile.
"Um!"
Doudou nodded heavily, his expression already cheering.
"But I have a condition. After you return home, you must obey my arrangements. You cannot say anything without my permission. Can you do it?"
"Don't worry, uncle, I promise you, I will do as you say!"
Doudou said confidently.
"Okay, let's go."
I went to the counter to pay the bill, then took Doudou and walked towards Xiushui Street.
The sky was still dark, and the heavy rain was still pouring out. There was not a single figure in sight, only thick raindrops connected into threads.
I was about to return along the same path, so I walked through the park in the center of the street again, and when I reached the bamboo forest, suddenly, there were bursts of shrill howls from all around!
"Ouch—"
I turned my head to look over, and couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart, and my breathing became rapid.
Deep in the bamboo forest, countless pairs of green eyes are staring at us, slowly approaching!
