This is your room! "Huai Xu asked knowingly, his gaze fixed on the desk lamp in front of Zhou Li, suppressing his desire to touch it." This little street lamp is quite unique, and I've always wanted to know how it lights up

The principle of this is... it lights up when powered on

... Oh

Huaixu seems to understand.

Then he turned around and looked at Zhou Li's bed: 'This bed is also unique, but why do you have to sleep on two beds alone? Do you have a maid or something?'

This is what I bought when I was a child. At that time, I slept with my younger brother and he slept on the upper bunk. Later, when we grew up, we didn't sleep together anymore. After entering middle school, this bed also moved to this house. "Zhou Li turned around and looked at Huai Xu, whose gaze was wandering.

Then you can sleep on top if you want, and sleep on the bottom if you want

About the same

Great! "Huai Xu exclaimed, then pointed to Zhou Li's bookshelf, which was densely packed." Have you read all these books

Most of them are textbooks

Oh! I know that! "Huai Xu nodded, his gaze continuing to fly around.

Zhou Li noticed that something seemed to have gone wrong, so when Huai Xu's gaze paused on the hyacinth on his desk and he was about to ask the next question, he grabbed ahead of him and said, "Do you often stay on that tree

No, "Huai Xu stared at Feng Xinzi with her eyes." Why does that grass grow in the water? There's no soil, and the roots have turned white

So you specifically waited for me at that intersection tonight

How do you know? I don't. It's just a coincidence. Speaking of which, we really have a connection

Why are you on that tree again? You weren't there a few days ago

Is that so? That's really fate

That's a hyacinth, it can't drown

Feng Xinzi, "Huai Xu repeated.

You said you just woke up, did you sleep for a long time

Is that so

How long was that

I don't know either, I don't have a watch like you guys do. Anyway, I feel like the world has changed for a long time

What was your previous world like? "Zhou Li caught a point in Huai Xu's words.

I don't remember, it's not like that anyway

Do you feel unfamiliar? What do you remember

Hmm. I don't remember a lot of it. Occasionally, I remember a little bit, and that's how I should wake up. "Huaixu's eyes showed a hint of confusion, as there were only fragments in his mind that couldn't be connected, and he felt very uncomfortable every time he touched them. To deal with this discomfort, he had to make himself stop reminiscing.

Where do you sleep? Underground? In a coffin? In a cave

The place you can't see

Are they all like this too

I guess so, right

What exactly are you? "Zhou Li pursed his lips when asked," Where do you come from

Demon? Spirit? God? Monster? "Huai Xu's eyes were puzzled as he answered, as if he was not quite sure about these questions like Zhou Li." The ones who call out the most are still demons, and there are some unpleasant dirty words. As for where we come from... I heard other demons say that we may not be things in this world, so you don't like us

How long have you been awake

It's been over a year now

It's been over a year now, I remember... "Zhou Li asked," Isn't there quite a few of your kind, and there are also many companions among you? Why don't you go find them

They all don't like me. The little ones avoid me, and the big ones refuse to let me stay in their territory. Maybe it's because I look like a person, "Huai Xu said with a hint of anger." Actually, I'm easy to get along with, I think

You just said that you heard other demons say that you may not be from this world

What's wrong

Why are they telling you these things when they don't want to have any contact with you

I have special consulting skills

Oh

Zhou Li has finally understood. The person who just said to him, 'Ask me, I'll tell you everything I know,' is actually still confused and unable to provide him with much useful information. And he doesn't quite believe this information yet.

So he withdrew his gaze, turned around and silently picked up his pen. The noisy rain outside made this early summer night particularly peaceful.

I'm going to write the paper, just stay here

What is a test paper

That's the question. If you don't do it, you'll have to stay up late. You have to hand it over to the teacher early tomorrow morning

Oh, you do it, "Huai Xu quieted down.

The small sound produced by the friction between the pen tip and the paper surface can easily be drowned out by the sound of rain.

Zhou Li wrote for a while, then turned his head and saw Huai Xu leaning against the ladder of the bunk bed, staring straight at him with open eyes. That face is just too delicate, like the work of a seasoned painter who has put in a lot of effort. This kind of appearance that demands every inch to the extreme is not something that should appear in nature.

It's a bit fake.

Huai Xu felt uneasy inside and said, "Write it

He didn't disturb him either.

Zhou Li withdrew his gaze, held his pen and pondered for a moment before continuing to find words and say to him, "How have you been living this year? Were you also around here before

I came from a small town and walked all the way here. It's good here, there aren't as many monsters as outside the city. I've been in the city for half a year now, and I usually go around wherever I want. Sometimes I also go to some places that you guys like to play, just secretly. Sometimes I even go to school. "Huai Xu was very happy when she spoke, her eyebrows and eyes fluttering, and then she could say a long list.

Are you still in school? "Zhou Li was a little surprised." Where are you going

That way, "Huai Xu pointed in a direction, but seeing Zhou Li with his back to him, he said again," it's where there will be a long street full of flowers on the walls in spring

Oh, Jiu'an Junior High School, the one next to Third Elementary School

Yes, yes, that's right

What are you learning

Pinyin, recognize characters

Oh, San Xiao, I also attended elementary school there

I learn very quickly

Then you should be stronger than me, "Zhou Li said." Where are you going later? After the rain stops

I don't know, just walk around

Go out and walk straight to the left. There is a big red house with the words' Pearl in the Palm 'written on it. I will write these words for you later. There are many beds and sofas inside, you must have a way to get in

I'll go take a look later

「……」

The rain has never stopped.

After finishing two sets of papers in a row and writing a diary, Zhou Li stretched lazily and turned his head to see that Huai Xu had taken his elementary school Chinese book at some point and had already read almost one-third of it.

Zhou Li hesitated for a moment, looked at the upper bunk of the bunk bed, and whispered, "When will you leave

Let's go now! "Huai Xu quickly put down the book.

Just sleep with me for one night, I'm not driving you away

Um... "Huai Xu hesitated for a moment," Aren't you afraid that I'll eat you tonight

Don't worry, "Zhou Li put away his papers and closed the window at the same time.

Could it be that you are very capable? "Huai Xu was actually puzzled.

I'm not great, you're great. You can even come up to the 25th floor. If you want to eat me, there's nothing I can do. "Zhou Li got up and walked towards the bed." I'm going to sleep, so you can sleep too

I'm wet all over

Haven't you done anything yet

No

It's okay, just sleep like this. I don't often sleep on the upper bunk anyway. I have to wake up early tomorrow morning

Oh

Huaixu turned around and looked at the high-low bed, bending his legs in a jumping posture, but before popping out, he withdrew his strength, took off his shoes, and climbed up the wooden ladder obediently.

He didn't lie down either, but sat by the bed with his legs hanging down through the middle of the guardrail.

Zhou Li also lay down on the bed.

Two beautifully curved calves swayed in front of him, like jade.

Pa, Zhou Li turned off the light, he couldn't see clearly.

My legs won't sway anymore!

The upper bunk revealed half of its head and asked, 'Are you asleep?'

Hmm

Oh

The next morning, when Zhou Li woke up, it was still dark. Half of his head was hanging on the edge of the upper bunk, staring straight at him, which startled him.

What are you watching me do! "Zhou Li asked in a low voice.

See when you wake up

「……」

Are you going to school

Hmm

How about I go with you

If you're willing to go, go ahead and don't cause any trouble at my school

Don't worry

Huaixu withdrew his head and then got out of bed.

In theory, dawn has not yet arrived, but it is unclear what rule he is following, as he has already transformed back into a male appearance.

Dress up, wash your face and brush your teeth.

Huai Xu followed Zhou Li behind, and wherever Zhou Li went, he would go, occasionally curiously looking around.

Aunt Jiang has already prepared breakfast.

Fresh milk, boiled eggs, a bowl of unorthodox Kaiyuan Rice noodles made from last night's hoof flower soup, and a plate of fried dumplings.

Zhou Li eats very fast.

After a bowl of Rice noodles, he looked up and saw Huaixu standing behind Aunt Jiang, staring at him without blinking.

What's wrong? "Aunt Jiang noticed his gaze and turned to look behind her.

No, I suddenly remembered that I had to go sweep the floor early today, "Zhou Li quickly picked up the milk and drank it in one gulp.

Take the eggs and eat them on the way! "Aunt Jiang shouted," Do you want to bring some more dumplings

I want it

I'll pack it for you. "Aunt Jiang put down her chopsticks, got up to get her pocket, and at the same time broke a banana on the coffee table. Suddenly, she paused and said," Why are you sweeping the floor again today? Didn't you just sweep the floor last week? Are you a teacher or a classmate? If you shouldn't, I'll go to your school this morning to have a look

My desk mate won't be able to come today, so I'll help him sweep. It's only for this day. "Zhou Li had already put on his shoes and took the small bag.

Wipe your hands and mouth, "Aunt Jiang pulled out a few more pieces of paper and handed it to Zhou Li.

Well, I'm leaving

Just finished eating, don't run, it's nothing to be late, "Aunt Jiang reminded.

Okay

Zhou Li left the door, and Huai Xu stood in front of him.

Zhou Li didn't wait for the elevator, but took a turn and walked into the staircase entrance. The light suddenly dimmed and turned green.

Let's eat, "Zhou Li handed the fried dumplings to Huai Xu.

What are you doing for me? "Huai Xu asked inexplicably," Isn't this your breakfast

Try it, hurry up

「enmmm……」

Huaixu reluctantly took the fried dumplings, stuffed one into his mouth, and immediately squinted his eyes.

The bottom of the fried dumplings is crispy and the taste is very good.

There was a slight echo in Zhou Li's footsteps, which sounded very clear in the quiet hallway, a bit too quiet.

25th floor, how did you get up

I'm great, "Huai Xu's voice was unclear.

Where did you get your shoes

I picked it up

It looks quite new

It was stolen

I see

This looks like something I've eaten before, "Huai Xu pointed to the banana," but it's not that big or that good-looking. I ate it in the mountains

Bananas are really delicious

I won't eat this egg, I'll give you some nutrition

I am not lacking in nutrition

You're going to take the college entrance exam

I'll go out and buy a braised egg later. I like that one. You eat it quickly and take the elevator after finishing

Oh

Huaixu lightly flicked the egg and then peeled it off completely. He first sniffed it and then took a small bite close to his mouth.

My eyes immediately narrowed again!

Stepping out of the building, the sky was still deep blue, blocked by the green trees in the community.

Huaixu sniffed and said, "There are monsters in your place, two of them

How do you know

I am very capable

Oh

Aren't you afraid

They came before me

How brave... people are not afraid of demons anymore! "Huai Xu sighed at this world.

Are people in the past afraid of monsters? "Zhou Li asked.

I'm afraid, you're watching TV

Do monsters really eat people

I'll tell you when I remember

「……」

Zhou Li bought a braised egg outside the community and ate it while walking.

The road was covered with locust flowers, soaked by the rain and stuck to the ground, with scattered stars on the ground.

Walking towards the school gate, Huaixu keenly noticed the changes in his whole person and curiously asked, "What are you doing? Is your teacher ahead

There is also a demon in school

Hey, aren't you afraid

I didn't say I'm not afraid

Does that demon want to eat people

Don't eat it

What else are you afraid of

Very troublesome. "Zhou Li saw the huge figure through the retractable door, not far from the school gate, blocking the tree lined road.

Oh, is that the one

Yes, please speak softly, don't provoke... "Zhou Li turned his head to remind Huai Xu, but he found that there was no space behind him, and instead, Huai Xu's voice could be faintly heard from ahead——

Does feeding you often bully a human? He's probably this tall and relatively thin
