Chapter 1480: Keeping an Appointment
The corners of Xiao Xiao's mouth turned up slightly.
He noticed the tomb ghost following behind.
"Classmate Xiao."
The middle-aged man spoke.
But after just calling a name, there was no follow-up.
The middle-aged man looked confused.
How to say it?
At this point, it basically has nothing to do with him.
But he was full of curiosity about the tomb ghost.
Even though he couldn't see it, he still wanted to know more about the Tomb Ghost.
He knew that since there were tomb ghosts, there must be other monsters in the world.
However, to him who cannot see it, it makes little difference whether the monster really exists or not.
He has no dealings with monsters.
At least that's been the case for the past thirty years.
However, by chance, he met the tomb ghost.
He knew about the existence of monsters.
The grave ghost even stayed with him for a while.
The tomb ghost is different from him.
He couldn't see it, but he knew the story between it and the girl, and he also experienced the other party's "warm reception." He still remembered the "ghost pressure" in those days.
He felt that he had some connection with the tomb ghost.
A rare connection.
If such a rare contact was cut off, he would feel...a pity.
"Classmate Xiao."
Suddenly an idea flashed through the middle-aged man's mind, and he thought of what to say, "Call me when you come over next time, and I'll see you off."
"If it takes too long, I'll stay at my mom's house."
The middle-aged man was a little excited.
Even if he couldn't see it, he still wanted to participate in this matter until the end, see the perfect ending of the tomb ghost and the girl seeing each other again, and draw a happy ending to this strange experience of his.
"Can I?"
The middle-aged man looked at the young man in front of him with some uncertainty.
I wonder if this young man thinks he is nosy?
"If Uncle Chen doesn't mind the trouble."
Xiao Xiao smiled.
Originally, he didn't plan to trouble the middle-aged man anymore.
Just as the middle-aged man thought before, when things get here, there is nothing that requires the middle-aged man to participate.
When he finds the girl, he will call the middle-aged man to tell the middle-aged man about the girl's current situation, and then ask him to tell Mother Chen and Grandma Li about the girl's current situation.
That's it.
Since the middle-aged man himself made the request.
He naturally agreed to such innocuous requests.
……
Xiao Xiao's cheerfulness put a big smile on the middle-aged man's face.
"Then it's agreed, classmate Xiao, you must call me when the time comes."
"You're welcome."
"I came here myself."
"You don't have to feel embarrassed."
Knowing that most young people are thin-skinned and embarrassed to trouble others, the middle-aged man took a "vaccination".
And that's the truth.
If classmate Xiao doesn't take him to "play" anymore, he will be troubled.
"Any time."
The middle-aged man emphasized again and again.
"It doesn't matter if it's a working day."
He is also a college student and knows that the class time for college students is uncertain.
Unlike him, an office worker, who clocks in on time five days a week, and works overtime on more than half of the days.
However, if it was for this matter, he could ask for leave.
After all... maybe this is the only time in his life that he can interact with monsters.
He was unwilling to miss such a rare opportunity.
……
"Okay, I get it."
Xiao Xiao promised, "Uncle Chen, I will remember to call you."
"Okay."
The middle-aged man grinned.
……
The grave ghost tilted his head from behind.
It looked at the adults and then at the human who took its little flower basket. It didn't quite understand what they were talking about.
Why is this human so happy?
Before it could figure it out, it discovered that they had reached the foot of the mountain.
It slowly stopped.
The human went to drive,
Then, the tomb ghost was stunned.
It saw the adult walking to the car door looking up at it and waving to it.
Why? Did the adults notice it following them?
The tomb ghost was at a loss for a moment.
Its eyes wandered subconsciously. When it looked up again, the adult had already sat in the car.
It heard the sound of a car starting.
The next second, it saw the car moving slowly.
It has been in the car before.
But I don't really like the cramped environment in the carriage.
It still floats comfortably on its own.
The sky is vast and the earth is vast, and I feel very comfortable.
……
The middle-aged man drove towards the community where his home was located.
Xiao Xiao's destination is also there.
Today is the day we made an appointment to have dinner at Xiaoyi's house at noon.
Originally, Xiao Xiao called Uncle Chen yesterday before setting off to his hometown to explain his inability to keep the appointment.
Unexpectedly, things changed later.
Tomb Ghost's little flower basket was found in the car.
It saves time to find small flower baskets, so you can go to appointments on time.
Xiao Xiao called Uncle Zheng again.
……
The middle-aged man parked his car downstairs.
"Classmate Xiao, we're here."
Xiao Xiao got out of the car.
The middle-aged man locked the car door and walked a few steps quickly to lead the way for Xiao Xiao, "Classmate Xiao, here."
He lives downstairs from Xiao Yi's house, so he naturally knows the location of Xiao Yi's house.
……
"Classmate Xiao, this is the room."
The middle-aged man sent Xiao Xiao to the door of Xiaoyi's house.
He rang the doorbell.
“Ding~dong~”
Soon, the sound of footsteps came from inside the door.
This footsteps...
Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.
The door was pushed open from the inside, and a little head popped out. After seeing Xiao Xiao, his eyes suddenly lit up, and a big smile appeared on his face, "Big brother!"
really.
"Xiaoyi."
Xiao Xiao bent down and looked at the child who was trying to raise his head, his eyebrows slightly curved.
"Classmate Xiao."
The man who came next helped the child push the door open completely.
"Uncle Zheng."
Xiao Xiao straightened up.
"Brother Chen?"
The man saw a little surprise on his face when he saw the middle-aged man next to Xiao Xiao.
The middle-aged man smiled a bit jokingly, "Finally you saw me."
"Where's Xiaoyi?"
He bent down and looked at the child, "Have you seen Uncle Chen?"
"You haven't called anyone yet?"
The man touched the child's head.
"Uncle Chen!"
The child reached out to grab Xiao Xiao's pants and turned to look at the middle-aged man.
"Be good."
The middle-aged man also touched the child's head.
This kid can see monsters.
The middle-aged man felt a little envious.
The little girl from before can also be seen.
Surely children are more likely to see these magical creatures?
What about classmate Xiao?
He is also an adult, but he can still see monsters.
He was really envious.
……
"Brother Chen, you-"
"It's okay."
The middle-aged man waved his hand and interrupted Xiaoyi's father's inquiry, "I just sent Xiao Yi to your home."
"Oh."
Xiaoyi's father nodded, and then he noticed something was wrong, "Hey, Brother Chen, do you know classmate Xiao?"
"I happened to meet Xiaoyi yesterday when I took her downstairs to play."
"It was Xiaoyi who introduced us."
The middle-aged man explained with a smile.
Although he concealed some content, what he said was indeed the truth.
