As soon as the boy's laughter rang out, black shadows flashed before his eyes, and there were flapping sounds. The boy screamed wildly and fell to the ground in fright, his little body shaking constantly.
"Ghost, there is a ghost——"
"ah--"
The other boys were too frightened to speak, and the girls screamed one after another.
Xiao Che frowned and scanned the crowd with his big, deep eyes. Miraculously, everyone stopped screaming.
"Xiao, Xiao Che."
A petite and cute little girl slowly approached him and stretched out her pink and tender hands to tug on his overalls.
"I'm afraid."
"Xiao Duo'er, how many times have I told you to call me Brother Che."
"Che, brother Che, Duo'er is afraid."
"Be good, Duo'er is not afraid, brother Che will protect you."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and hugged Xiao Duo'er's waist, with a hint of successful cunning flashing in his eyes.
"Brother Che, I'm afraid too."
"Brother Che..."
Suddenly, all the girls gathered around Xiao Che. His thin mouth was slightly pursed, enjoying the pride of being surrounded by them.
"Xiao Che, aren't you afraid of ghosts?"
Some boys were unconvinced. Xiao Che had always been very popular with the girls in the orphanage. They didn't play with the other boys at all. They stayed around Xiao Che all day long. He didn't believe that Xiao Che was even a ghost.
Not afraid either.
"I'm scared, but have you ever seen a ghost?"
Xiao Che patted the frightened little girls in his arms comfortingly, put one hand in the pocket of his overalls, stepped out with his short legs, walked around the frightened big boy on the ground, and pointed his finger at just now
Flying out of the "dark shadow" place.
"There is a rock wall here, which is the best habitat for bats. Therefore, the black shadows you just saw are just bats."
"But, the teachers all said that a teacher here once jumped to commit suicide."
Xiao Che glanced at him and continued, with a maturity that was beyond his age in his tone.
"Teacher Ajia just got married and bought a new house. She didn't encounter anything bad, so she won't commit suicide."
Xiao Che walked to the railing of the tower and patted the railing.
"After my investigation, Teacher Ajia was probably frightened by a bat when he came to the tower at night to get information, and then he lost his footing and fell. You see, the railings here are not high enough at all. If you don't pay attention, it will be very easy to fall.
It’s an easy thing, especially when people are frightened and panic.”
The boy's big eyes were sparkling, and when he said these words, they shone with an innocent and charming light.
"So, Teacher Ajia did not commit suicide. The ghosts those people saw later were actually just bats."
The boys were left speechless. They were obviously unconvinced, but they had no way to refute. Xiao Che was the youngest boy here, only three and a half years old, but he seemed to know everything. The teachers treated him badly.
He is both afraid and loved, and the girls admire him extremely.
"Brother Che, you are so smart, Duo'er admires you so much."
Xiao Duo'er rushed forward, she was shorter than Xiao Che, so she could only keep his thighs, raised her pink little face, her eyes were filled with admiration.
"Really? What does Duo'er mean?"
Xiao Duoer buried her head in thought for a while, then raised her head and said firmly as if she had made some major decision.
"Duo'er gave half of the leftover cake from yesterday to Brother Che."
The corner of Xiao Che's mouth twitched. This little girl didn't know whether to call her cute or stupid.
