Chapter 3760 One person
The old man turned his head.
He could vaguely see the short-haired girl who opened the door for him before taking the express delivery from the courier's hand.
The courier quickly turned around and left.
He strode past the old man.
As if in the blink of an eye, the courier disappeared.
…
The old man holds on to the handrail.
Go downstairs step by step.
He was a little tired from the disappointment of getting nothing.
I had so much expectations before.
How disappointed I feel now.
…
The old man returned home.
He changed into slippers.
He looked up and saw the old woman with a sullen expression.
He was a little confused.
ah?
…
There was a hint of anger on the old lady's face.
"You still know how to come back?"
"Why have you been gone so long?"
"Have a long talk with someone?"
…
"No……"
The old man is calm.
What could he have a long conversation with them about?
Aren't you wasting people's time?
…
The old lady had some guesses in her mind.
Her expression softened a little.
"what?"
"A lackluster look."
"Still haven't found the pipa player?"
…
"……Um."
The old man nodded
He was not surprised at the old woman's keenness.
Besides, his expression is pretty easy to guess.
He was a little tired.
There is no room for pretense.
…
The old woman's mouth opened slightly.
Why?
I really didn’t find it...
"Have you asked all the people upstairs and downstairs, including the other two households on our floor?"
The old lady confirmed.
…
"Um."
The old man nodded.
Including the floor where they lived, he asked all the residents on the three floors.
…
"No one heard the sound of the pipa?"
The old lady looked surprised.
…
"Um."
The old man nodded again.
No one heard it.
…
"That is to say..."
The old lady's eyes became a little strange, "So far, you are the only one who has heard the sound of the pipa?"
…
The old man was slightly startled.
I don’t quite understand what the old woman meant by asking this question?
He still nodded respecting the facts.
That's right, so far, it seems that he is the only one who has heard the sound of the pipa.
At least that's what he knew.
…
"Are you sure you heard correctly?"
The old lady blurted out.
…
"How can it be?"
The old man rolled his eyes.
…
"How is it impossible?"
The old lady was dissatisfied with the old man's determination.
"I remember, the first time you told me that you heard the sound of the pipa, wasn't it just in your sleep?"
…
Old man:......
He slowly closed his mouth.
This is indeed true.
He was unable to refute.
…
"You damn old man, why are you so stubborn?"
Although the old man didn't refute out loud, he clearly looked like he didn't agree with what she said even if he couldn't refute it...
It really made the old lady feel like she was breathing heavily in her heart.
She gave the old man an annoyed look.
"I asked you anyway."
"how?"
"You still don't give up on the third floor?"
"Are you really going to ask the whole building?"
…
The old man said nothing.
…
"you……"
Seeing that the old man didn't refute, the old lady's heart skipped a beat. She had told similar jokes twice.
It seems that the old man did not clearly state that he would not do this both times.
"You don't really want to do this, do you?"
…
"……No."
The old man felt the pressure of the old woman's gaze and said somewhat vaguely.
…
"It's fine if you don't."
The old lady was reluctantly satisfied with the old man's reply.
It's not that she refused the old man to do this.
I just don't think it's necessary.
Why bother?
He is no longer a nimble young man...
…
"Don't forget about this."
The old lady shook her head.
"If you go to the balcony later, you may not hear the sound of the pipa."
The old lady already somewhat believed the guess she blurted out before.
The old man probably really thought the voice in his sleep was reality.
In this case, where can the old man find the so-called pipa player?
…
"alright."
The old lady turned around.
"I just washed the grapes."
"I'll get it."
"You're tired after a long trip."
"Sit down and rest for a while."
…
The old lady went to the kitchen.
The old man slowly sat down on the sofa.
He was a little stunned.
What the old lady said...is not unreasonable.
Is that pipa sound really just his dream?
After many years...
How could he dream of the sound of the pipa?
He doesn't believe it.
I can't help but have some doubts.
…
The Pipa Ghost sits on the balcony railing.
His feet swayed slightly.
Even his body was swaying slightly.
A gust of wind passed by.
The loose white shirt outlines what looks like wings.
…
Pipa Ghost looked at the old man sitting on the sofa.
It followed the old man before.
Watching the old man knocking on the door of each house.
Watching the old man be disappointed again and again.
It is also a bit disappointing.
It would also be happy if it could find other humans who could hear it playing.
It can abandon this human being.
This human being has so little vision.
Don't even like its performance?
Before meeting this old man, the Pipa ghost had never thought that there were humans who didn't like its playing...
…
But so far, there is no one here who can listen to its performance on behalf of this human being.
It must make the old man acknowledge its playing.
Pipa Ghost thought to himself, and unconsciously fiddled with the strings of the Pipa in his arms.
This is its habit.
Then, it heard a female scream?
Pipa Ghost looked up.
…
"Old man!"
Most of the grapes fell off the old lady's plate.
"what are you doing?!"
The old lady was very angry.
She just approached the old man holding a fruit plate with grapes.
Just as she was about to speak, she saw the old man jumping up from the sofa as if he had seen a ghost...
She was caught off guard and frightened.
The hand shakes...
The grapes on the plate he was holding suddenly rolled to the ground.
…
ah!?
The old man was frightened for the second time by the old woman's scream at close range.
With a plop, the old man fell back onto the sofa.
There was a look of panic on his raised face.
…
The old lady was stunned.
Then I felt a little angry.
"What?"
"Obviously it was you, the old man, who scared me first..."
Why do you look like a "victim" who was frightened by her now?
Is it a good idea to figure out the order?
…
The old man opened his mouth.
No sound was made.
He suddenly leaned forward and leaned on the armrest of the sofa.
Turn your ears sideways.
He looked like he was listening to something attentively.
This made the old lady swallow back the complaints she wanted to express because she was startled again by the old man's sudden movements.
…
The old lady looked suspicious.
What the hell is this old man doing?
…
What's going on these days?
