Fire Game

Chapter 140: elder brother

, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the fire game!

"boom!"

The door slammed shut.

The 314 number plate shook slightly, as if it was about to fall off.

Qi Pengcheng, who had apparently parted ways with his younger brother, took a deep breath, his gloom quickly dissipated, and he regained his calm again and again, looking like that sunny young man again.

"Ding."

At the elevator entrance, the door opened, and Qi Pengcheng saw the mother and child that he had met in the restaurant before.

He immediately smiled kindly.

The woman nodded politely.

The little boy was still sitting in the wheelchair, still holding the ball tightly in his arms.

Qi Pengcheng entered the elevator and was about to press the button, only to find that the other party also lived on the fourth floor.

The elevator door closes and opens again.

Qi Pengcheng reached out to block the elevator door and let the mother and son go first.

"Thanks."

The woman pushed her son out of the elevator and walked to the right.

Only then did Qi Pengcheng get out of the elevator.

His room is 409, on the left side of the elevator, opposite to the mother and child.

But before he could take a few steps, Qi Pengcheng realized something was wrong, stopped and turned his head.

The pair of mother and son who clearly left to the right actually appeared behind him!

The woman didn't seem to feel how strange her behavior was. She seemed to be surprised by Qi Pengcheng's sudden stop, so she stopped instinctively, and even smiled at Qi Pengcheng calmly.

Qi Pengcheng didn't move any more, he froze there, and he couldn't make out the expression he had already mastered.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

The ball rolled down, passed by his feet, hit the wall, and stopped not far ahead.

"ball…"

The little boy raised his hand.

At this time, Qi Pengcheng should have walked over to help pick up the ball and return it to the other party. Normally, he did the same, but at this moment, he seemed to be held by an invisible force, standing motionless in the corridor. The cries of the little boy in the wheelchair fell on deaf ears.

The strange thing is that he didn't move, and the woman who was about four or five steps away from him didn't move either, and her gentle and friendly smile remained unchanged.

The atmosphere seemed to be in a strange stalemate.

"Patter..."

The rolling down of a drop of sweat made Qi Pengcheng blink involuntarily. His forehead was obviously wet, but he felt chilly.

"Little friend, you also live on the fourth floor."

Liu Xiazi who walked out of the elevator broke the frozen atmosphere.

She first saw the woman pushing the wheelchair, then Qi Pengcheng in front of her, and then, the ball parked in the corridor broke into her sight.

Without thinking too much, she walked over, rubbed shoulders with Qi Pengcheng, and returned the ball she picked up to the little boy again.

"Give."

"Thank you sister."

The little boy looked up, as if he still had an impression of Liu Xiazi, his eyes were bright.

Liu Xiazi's movements were exactly the same as last time, stroking his head.

"How old are you?"

"Seven years old."

The little boy said crisply.

Seven years old, exactly the age of elementary school.

Liu Xiazi sighed secretly, talked to the little boy, then raised his head and smiled at the little boy's mother.

In fact, she was a little curious about the little boy's illness, but she didn't ask because she didn't want to expose his scars.

Turning around, she looked at Qi Pengcheng.

Qi Pengcheng's expression management ability returned to normal, and he quickly showed a smile that didn't look too strange.

The four continued on.

"elder brother…"

The little boy spoke out suddenly.

There was only one man at the scene, so there was no doubt about who the elder brother was calling.

Qi Pengcheng's eyes trembled slightly, and he kept silent which was contrary to his conduct.

But Liu Xiazi was curious, and turned his head softly, "What's the matter?"

The little boy in the wheelchair held the ball with both hands and looked at Qi Pengcheng's feet. His voice was not loud, but his words were surprising.

"My brother's shoes are wet."

Liu Xiazi couldn't help being startled, and subconsciously looked at Qi Pengcheng's feet, and it turned out—

clean.

"Children tell lies, but their noses will grow longer."

She didn't take it seriously, and rubbed the little boy's head, thinking it was a child's joke.

But the little boy was very serious, persistently said: "Sister, I'm not lying, look, my brother's footprints are all wet."

Looking at the little boy who seemed to be acting, Liu Xiazi was dubious, and looked at the ground Qi Pengcheng walked on again.

The corridor has a wooden floor, which is not too clean, but if there is water stain, it can definitely be seen clearly.

Liu Xiazi's eyesight is very good, not to mention the water stains, there are not even obvious footprints in the corridor.

Could it be that the child is talking nonsense?

Liu Xiazi frowned slightly.

"Xiaoxin, don't be naughty."

The woman spoke softly.

The little boy named Xiaoxin was very well-behaved, or he listened to his mother very much. After the woman spoke, he immediately pursed his lips and stopped talking.

From the beginning to the end, Qi Pengcheng didn't react at all, until he walked to the gate of 409, he smiled at Liu Xiazi, his smile was still warm.

"I went in first."

Liu Xiazi nodded, watching the other party swipe his card to enter the house, feeling a little emotional in his heart.

Although his appearance is slightly inferior to that of the ice cube, but his way of dealing with people is far behind that guy Ye Xin.

After a while, we came to gate 404.

Liu Xiazi took out her room card and was about to enter the room when she remembered the mother and child, then turned around, smiled and waved to the little boy in the wheelchair.

"Xiaoxin, good night."

The little boy was silent, hugged the ball, and looked at her silently. The eyes that should have been innocent and childlike were very strange... sad and empty, lifeless, revealing a sense of despair that made the chest stuffy.

Liu Xiazi's smile froze, and he wondered if it was because he had suffered too much stimulation in the past two days, causing him to start thinking wildly and suspiciously?

"boom."

Liu Xiazi closed the door lightly, blocking those worried eyes.

She turned around, walked to the bed, lay on her back straight on the bed, looked at the ceiling, and let out a long breath.

"All conditioned dharmas are like dreams and bubbles, like dew and electricity, and should be viewed as such..."

Liu Xiazi opened her eyes~lightnovelpub.net~ she was chanting words, regardless of whether it was a spell to subdue demons or not, she read it first, after all, the relevant knowledge in her little head was only this, if not, then she would Only haste as a law.

But it was a zombie fight, she knew that.

"There is an injustice and a debtor, Yang Xueqing, if someone really killed you, we will definitely help you find the murderer. You can find the murderer to take revenge, we are innocent..."

Liu Xiazi babbled, this is not self-deception, but just self-deception.

But when you are in a situation where you can't do anything, knowing how to comfort yourself is already considered an extremely smart person's approach.

Suddenly, Liu Xiazi sat up abruptly from the bed, remembering for no reason that the ball was kicked by him last night, looking towards the door, his eyes kept changing, full of surprise.

Almost forgot about this.

Why was the head-like ball that bounced in last night almost exactly the same as the one held by the little boy in the wheelchair?
