Chapter 698 A joke? hope?
"Thank you."
Xiao Xiao nodded to the woman, then stepped forward without any further delay, holding the door handle at the door of the ward, "Click~"
……
Xiao Xiao walked into the ward.
Uncle Jin and Aunt Yu also followed in.
He kept a certain distance from Xiao Xiao.
His eyes were staring at Xiao Xiao's every move without blinking.
……
Xiao Xiao looked at the entire ward.
This is his first time in the children's ward.
……
He has been in good health since he was a child and has almost never been sick requiring hospitalization.
In his memory, the only time he went to the hospital was to get a bottle of salt water.
……
It really is a children's ward. If it weren't for the familiar smell of disinfectant, it would be like a cute children's bedroom.
……
The window was half open, a breeze blew in, and the curtains bulged and trembled slightly.
Xiao Xiao came to the window.
At the end of the day, many of the flavors that should be obvious become not so easy to capture.
……
"Master Xiao Xiao, you smell like a monster."
White Snake twisted its flexible body, and its soft voice became even more beguiling because of its lazy flavor.
……
"Thank you."
Xiao Xiao whispered.
The smell of monsters naturally makes it easier to distinguish monsters.
White Snake's opening confirmed his suspicion.
The girl's disappearance is indeed related to the monster.
……
A monster that looks like a dog?
Xiao Xiao pondered.
But from Uncle Jin's story, the monster shouldn't have any ill intentions towards the girl.
Otherwise, how could you get a girl to hug you?
Therefore, he probably doesn't have to worry too much about the girl's safety.
……
It’s just that good boys have to go home at night.
It’s not good to lose track of time while having fun.
Xiao Xiao raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Then, he could only pick up this girl who was "lucky and reluctant to live in Sichuan" in person.
……
Xiao Yu's silence was not long, but to the anxious Uncle Jin and Aunt Yu, it seemed that a long time had passed.
They were looking forward to it but also couldn't help but be disappointed.
Their complicated psychology makes them urgently need an answer.
……
Just when Uncle Jin and Aunt Yu couldn't help but want to ask out loud, Xiao Xiao turned around and walked towards them.
……
Uncle Jin and Aunt Yu looked at Xiao Xiao with hesitation.
The anxiety in his expression and the expectation in his eyes are clearly visible.
……
Uncle Jin moved his lips a few times, but in the end he didn't make any sound.
Tell yourself not to have expectations, it’s too unrealistic after all.
A student discovers a clue that the police missed?
It's not like filming a TV series.
However, the longing in my heart cannot be suppressed.
He wanted so badly to hear a positive answer.
……
"Uncle Jin, Aunt Yu."
The corners of Xiao Xiao's mouth curled up slightly.
The two people opposite could not help but open their eyes wide.
"I think I should be able to find your daughter."
"Really?!"
Uncle Jin shouted.
Aunt Yu put her hand to cover her lips, but still let out a choked sob.
……
Uncle Jin patted his wife on the back, looked at Xiao Xiao and suppressed the surging emotions in his eyes. He asked word by word, "Classmate Xiao, is this true?"
Seeing Xiao Xiao about to speak, he interrupted hastily, "You don't have to be burdened. It doesn't matter if you don't find out."
"We would really appreciate your willingness to take the trouble to do this."
After all, their relationship is ultimately that of a taxi driver and a passenger.
"Just, don't lie to us."
Don't let them have hope only to be disappointed again. ……
However, despite what he said, Uncle Jin and Aunt Yu, who covered her lips and had red eyes, looked at Xiao Xiao with expectation and even a bit of prayer.
……
"I'm not kidding."
Xiao Xiao suddenly wanted to laugh. This was the second time he said the same thing in just ten minutes.
……
"Really, really?"
Aunt Yu released her hand covering her mouth and asked in a hoarse voice, "Where is it?"
"Where is my daughter?"
"Classmate Xiao, did you find anything here?"
Uncle Jin turned around and looked around, trying to find any clues about his daughter's whereabouts.
Once again nothing was found.
……
"Please give me a moment."
Xiao Xiao did not answer the couple's questions, but said words that made the people opposite look shocked and stunned, "I will bring your daughter back tomorrow morning at the latest."
"Then, I'll take my leave first."
……
Seeing Xiao Xiao really walking towards the door of the ward, Uncle Jin and Aunt Yu looked at each other.
"Click~"
The sound of a doorknob being turned.
……
"Classmate Xiao!"
Uncle Jin shouted hurriedly.
Meeting Xiao Xiao's gaze, who turned his head in response, Uncle Jin was inexplicably short of breath. He paused for a moment before speaking again, "Don't you need us to do anything?"
"No need."
Xiao Xiao shook his head, "You can take a rest first."
After a tiring day, both husband and wife looked ugly, and their frowning brows could not hide their tiredness.
……
"No, I don't rest."
"I want to wait for my daughter to come back."
Aunt Yu suddenly said with a bit of excitement.
……
Xiao Xiao smiled and said nothing more.
In fact, he also knew that his daughter's whereabouts were unknown and her life or death was uncertain. Which parent would have the heart to rest?
……
"Classmate Xiao, did you really...find something in this ward?"
"Can you really get our daughter back?"
Uncle Jin asked seriously.
……
"Yeah."
Xiao Xiao opened the door and walked out.
"Pa-ta~"
The ward door closed behind him.
……
There was silence in the ward.
"Lao Jin."
Aunt Yu withdrew her gaze from the door panel, looked at her husband, and suddenly shouted, her voice dry and hoarse, but she stopped abruptly.
She didn't know what she wanted to say next.
But soon, she murmured, "At least there is one more hope, right?"
……
"Yes, at least there is one more hope."
Uncle Jin patted his wife on the shoulder and said, "Mom, if you don't want to go home, why don't you lie down on the hospital bed here for a while?"
"You don't look good."
"Don't worry, I'll follow the police and I'll let you know as soon as there is news."
……
"I'll go too."
Aunt Yu simply ignored Uncle Jin's suggestion of "rest" and walked straight to the door.
When she reached the door, she stopped and did not look back. "My face is so ugly, but I have the nerve to tell others?"
Then Aunt Yu opened the door and walked out.
Uncle Jin:......
He smiled helplessly and followed quickly.
……
Xiao Xiao walked to the window of the ward where the girl lived before.
It was getting late, and because he was at the back of the hospital building, the windows were basically dark. After all, it was already nine o'clock, and it was already the children's sleep time.
So there were only faint lights coming from a distance.
……
"More is more."
"Woof woof~"
