End of Mystery
Chapter 24 It's False
Move out of that house? Is it better to rent a set?
Xiao Xiao keenly noticed some problems in this sentence, and looked at his father with some surprise.
Since his father divorced his mother, he moved out of this house and bought real estate elsewhere. The old house was left for him and his mother to live in.
There is a saying that he is right, the house is indeed too old, it has been decades old, and the water supply and other infrastructure are not very good.
But the key point is that the location of that house is good. Even Yang Jia, after going to that house before, praised that the house in the old city is actually very valuable.
Think about it, just across the street is the commercial center, every inch of land is expensive.
The old house can't help but have a lot of space, and even has a small yard. How much does it cost?
In addition, after Xiao's father moved out of that house, although he didn't say it clearly, he actually left it to Xiao Xiao and his mother and son, and Xiao Xiao will inherit it in the future.
Now let them move out and rent another set.
Can the rented one be your own?
Facing Xiao Xiao's surprised eyes, Xiao's father was a little reluctant to look him in the eyes, and turned to clink glasses with others for a drink, while the woman sitting next to him gave Xiao Xiao a high-spirited look.
Xiao Xiao was silent, knowing that someone had taken a fancy to this house.
Although I am a foreigner in the first place, I don't care about these things, but I always feel that it is inappropriate to just give up for nothing.
At this time, the atmosphere at the banquet gradually became lively. No one paid attention to what the family said, they just clinked glasses, chatted and chatted about business.
Xiao Xiao was also forgotten in the corner, looking at the world like an outsider.
On the other hand, beside the woman, there was a five-year-old boy who, unwilling to sit still, crawled out of the woman's arms. He was not polite at all, and turned over the things in Xiao Xiao's backpack.
Xiao Xiao glanced at him and didn't stop him. The woman around him also turned a blind eye and let him flip through the pages.
The child rummaged through the things in Xiao Xiao's bag, even crawled to Xiao Xiao's side, and put his hand directly into Xiao Xiao's pocket, as if he knew that everything on Xiao Xiao belonged to him.
When he took out a gun, his expression clearly became excited, he couldn't put it down, he held it in his two small hands, and pointed at the people present everywhere.
Saying "pop" and "pop" in his mouth.
When the woman next to him saw that the child suddenly had a gun in his hand, she knew that it was from Xiao Xiao's body, and she didn't care, but she was a little disdainful:
"How old are you and still play with guns? Are you stunned by the game?"
"..."
In the process, the father did not try to stop it, but it was not a bad thing for the younger brother to be close to the elder brother at that time.
But suddenly, his eyes swept over the gun in the child's hand that was blazing at someone else, first he frowned slightly, and suddenly, his face changed suddenly.
The texture of the gun is wrong.
The heavy weight, the dark paint, and the obvious metallic luster and refined parts...
... so real.
Just when this thought flashed through his hands, the curious child, already lowered his head to fiddle with it, unintentionally opened the safety catch of the gun, made a slight click, and then lifted it up excitedly.
At this moment, Xiao's father's face suddenly changed drastically, and his breath was stuck in his throat, and he almost carried it away.
"Shua!"
At the same time, Xiao Xiao suddenly stretched out his hand, took back the gun from his younger brother's hand, closed the safety cover quietly, and put it back in his pocket.
"Wow……"
The younger brother was having fun when he was snatched away suddenly, and suddenly cried out of dissatisfaction: "He robbed me..."
And the father suddenly gasped for breath, feeling like he was alive after a catastrophe, his eyes faintly dimmed, and he looked at Xiao Xiao in disbelief.
"Mom has not been easy these past few years."
At this time, Xiao Xiao met his father's horrified gaze as if nothing had happened, and said softly: "It's okay if you want to take back the house, but buy her another one, write her name, the area should not be too small, and the one with an elevator is the best. "
He said, thought for a while, and said: "It's better to give her some more compensation. She goes to work in the mall every day and does housework. She is really tired."
Facing Xiao Xiao's calm and quiet gaze, Xiao's father only had deep doubts and fears in his eyes, but he didn't dare to refuse, tremblingly said: "...Okay, I'll think... think about it."
But hearing this, the woman's complexion changed drastically, and she pulled the little boy away in dissatisfaction, and said to Father Xiao, "What are you talking about?"
Father Xiao suddenly became furious, and roared, "Shut up."
The woman was taken aback, and looked at Father Xiao in disbelief, as if she didn't expect him to lose his temper under such circumstances.
The guests at the table were also shocked, and the atmosphere was silent and awkward for a while.
"Okay, take your time and think about it."
And Xiao Xiao packed his backpack, then got up with a smile and said, "I have to get up early for work tomorrow, so I won't wait for the cake, that..."
He pondered for a while, but after all he couldn't say those two words to a monster, he just smiled and nodded: "Happy birthday to you."
After finishing speaking, he didn't stay any longer, and left the hotel box with his backpack on his back. He could feel that, among the puzzled eyes behind him, his father's eyes were especially frightened.
These monsters who acted as humans were quite careful.
They are indeed actors, they act very seriously and are very devoted, but it is really difficult for me to cooperate with their performances.
Sitting on the subway and walking home, Xiao Xiao looked at the bustling lights and bustling neon lights along the way, and suddenly felt that it was very strange.
It's always a lie, otherwise, how could you be so indifferent?
"Come back so early?"
After returning home, mother seemed to be in a good mood. Her own dinner was obviously the leftover dumplings at noon. At this time, she was cleaning up and complaining to Xiao Xiao:
"Your father has a little conscience. Just now he knew to call to ask if you have arrived home, and to ask how the two of us are doing recently."
"..."
Xiao Xiao knew that this was probably the aftereffect of the father being frightened by him, so he didn't want to talk too much, just smiled and said, "He didn't mention buying a house?"
"buy house?"
Mom was a little surprised: "What kind of house should I buy? It's good to live here..."
"Don't look at our house as old and dilapidated, but the location is so good. It's surrounded by buildings. This is a flat courtyard with a yard. It's very valuable."
"When you get married in the future, let's redecorate it and make it your new house. The wife's family will be satisfied."
"..."
"Mom is still too naive..."
Xiao Xiao thought to herself, this house was written with her father's name, and now she was thinking of taking it back, and she thought she could live there for the rest of her life.
It's just that Xiao Xiao at this time didn't bother to discuss these matters with her, so he just went back to the bedroom silently.
It was hard for him to describe the feeling of this dinner party. Maybe his father was really scared by his gun, but his experience was not good.
Among the smiling faces of people at the table, there is no sense of belonging.
It is very clear in my heart, and these people are also very clear that I am just an outsider, and every gaze cast around me is not very friendly.
No matter how kind their smiles are, they can still make people feel the bone-chilling cold.
This kind of cold made Xiao Xiao feel very lonely.
Perhaps, only when she was with Yang Jia, or Ruan Ruan and the others, would she feel relieved.
But everyone has their own lives, how can they always stay together?
So, what can give yourself a sense of security?
He raised his head, poked his head out of the window, and saw three dog heads lined up side by side on the fence, sticking out their tongues at him from a distance, looking like they were laughing.
Xiao Xiao also smiled at the three cute hounds across the fence of the two families:
"Perhaps, I can really strengthen them once?"
"..."
Although it's a bit risky, it's not bad to bet on dogs once in a while, what if you win the bet?
In addition, if I am not in a hurry to return the one hundred points to Yang Jia now, it seems that not only can I strengthen these three cute hounds once, but there is also the possibility of buying other things?
If, the next time you're confronted with an aberrant creature, or some oppressive atmosphere, some old record player plays a well-timed grisly tune...
...the experience probably won't be too bad?
...
At the same time, in a high-end apartment, Xiao's father's young and beautiful wife, Aunt Wang, also had a cold face and kept falling.
She was in a bad mood, not only because her husband reprimanded her loudly in front of so many people because of her ex-wife, but also because Xiao Xiao made her baby cry without even saying a word.
"Stop flinging your face."
After she fell for a long time, Xiao's father, who was sitting on the sofa smoking a cigarette, looked over with a frown and said, "Didn't you see it today?"
"What do you see?"
Aunt Wang said with a cold face: "It can be seen that you still can't forget them, and you still want to buy a house with that yellow-faced woman?"
"That's the house that the shepherd wants, and it's written in your name, so what if you just want to come here?"
"do not talk."
Father Xiao frowned, feeling a little uneasy all the time, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Did I tell you about his illness before?"
"What is not sick?"
Aunt Wang got angry when she heard that, and said, "It's all because he pretended that he was afraid that you would divorce that yellow-faced woman."
"It's good now, heh, I pretended to be sick for four years, and I just pretended to be useless."
"..."
"you……"
Father Xiao only found it difficult to communicate. After a while, he shook his head heavily and sighed in a low voice: "I thought he was just pretending to be ill before. It's hard to guess what a child is thinking, but..."
After struggling for a while, he said in a low voice: "Why do I feel that he does seem to be a little... strange?"
