After a brief period of darkness and dizziness, Bai Lixin gradually opened his eyes.

At the moment, he was standing at a crossroad with houses in all four directions.

Both the roads and the houses were somewhat old, and the houses were all square or small two-storey Western style houses.

It was already dusk, and all four roads were deserted. The silence was deafening. The golden sunset had turned the clouds in the sky red, and darkness was approaching from a distance, rolling with orange and red fire clouds.

“Caw! Caw!”

A crow suddenly cawed.

Bai Lixin looked up to see an all-black crow standing on a wire far above him, his pupils blood-red.

Under the setting sun, Bai Lixin’s shadow was slowly stretched out.

He shifted his gaze and glanced at the ground, then froze.

There was a big difference between his eyes and the usual distance from the ground.

If the usual distance was 180 meters, then it was now 80 meters at best.

Bai Lixin boldly reached out and saw a soft and small pair of hands.

“That’ll do.” Bai Lixin murmured as he made a crisp sound with his hand slapped against his face.

The skin’s texture was smooth and firm, and the touch was soft and tender.

Even the sound from the slap was tender.

In Liang Xi’s dream, he appears to have transformed into a milk doll.

And the slap on his face right now hurts. Liang Xi’s nightmare was terrifyingly real.

The crow above his head cawed again, and the sound of its wings flapping rang out.

The crow swooped down and rested on Bai Lixin’s shoulder after hovering in the sky for a moment.

Bai Lixin gave the crow a surprised glance and tentatively said, “Are you Su Fan?”

The crow immediately gave a “Caw”, and the black head nodded vigorously.

Bai Lixin: “……”

The “army” has already been wiped out.

A milk doll, and a bird.

That’s great.

Su Fan: “……”

He wanted to make a complaint, but who was he going to talk to?

Was this the work of that dog of a soul fragment?

But the smaller Bai Lixin was so cute!

The features haven’t changed; they’ve simply shrunk in proportion.

However, the eyes are larger, the cheeks are fleshy, the arms and hands are small, and the voice is milky.

The entire look just screamed two big words;

So cute!

—————

In the live broadcast room.

[We can now watch the dream scene because the system has recognized it. Oh, ah, ah, God Xin looks so cute!]

[Yes, he’s simply adorable!]

[Little God Xin’s appearance fulfills the saying: beautiful women are beauties from childhood. I’ve never seen such a good looking child.]

[So cute, though he’s obviously a boy!]

————

The sun was slanting westward, and the clouds in the distance twisted in red and black like an eerie static painting.

The shadows on the ground were stretched out longer.

The crossroad, dusk and silence.

These three words alone came together to form a frightening ghost story.

A bell rang out from behind Bai Lixin, just as the two were debating which way to go.

Along with the bell was the clear sound of a child singing.

Bai Lixin turned back.

Against the setting sun was a small child driving a rocking car beside the road.

He seemed to be very attentive, stepping on the pedals beneath his feet and pausing to press the bell on the handlebars.

The song that was supposed to symbolize innocence and carefreeness was utterly bizarre in such a setting.

“Throw a handkerchief, throw a handkerchief, gently place it behind the child, and everyone will tell him.”

“There’s only a little handkerchief left on the floor, and soon he’ll see it.”

Bai Lixin: “……”

Was that how the song was originally sung?

Against the setting sun, the light haloed over the little boy on the stroller, allowing Bai Lixin to see his face.

Was that child Liang Xi?

Bai Lixin waited for the little boy in the rocking car at the intersection in silence.

It was only when the little doll arrived in front of him that Bai Lixin got a clear view of the other’s face.

A ghastly white face, with empty eyes.

He had a watermelon head and was wearing a small white suit.

The boy, who appeared to be about six or seven years old, came to a halt once he approached Bai Lixin. “You’re so pretty, can I know your name?” he asked as he surveyed Bai Lixin.

Bai Lixin frowned slightly.

“My name is Bai Lixin.”

This boy was not Liang Xi.

“Hello, Bai Lixin,” the little boy said stiffly, lifting the corners of his mouth, “I’m Xiao Guang; may I be your friend?”

Bai Lixin stared into those hollow, pure black eyes, ignoring Xiao Guang’s invitation to be friends. “What exactly are you doing here?”

“I’m playing,” Xiao Guang rang the bell with pride. “This is the rocking car my mum just bought me, isn’t it nice?”

“And these,” Xiao Guang tugged on the white suit, “these are the clothes my mother bought for me. Aren’t they nice?”

Mother?

Could it be that Xiao Guang had completely replaced Liang Xi?

Bai Lixin pursed his lips and murmured, “You seem to like your mother a lot.”

“Mom is very good to me; I like her the most,” Xiao Guang said, cocking his head. “She loses her temper from time to time, but that’s okay because she’s my mother, so I forgive her.”

Bai Lixin’s heart was vaguely at peace.

Just then, a female voice suddenly came from the distance: “Xiao Guang! It’s so late, come home and eat!”

Bai Lixin followed the voice and came across a woman in the midst of one of the roads at the crossroads. She was almost invisible in the darkness, standing at the door of a house, shouting in this direction.

A smile spread across Xiao Guang’s face, “Okay, Mom, I’ll be right over.”

He then said to Bai Lixin: “It was nice to meet you but I have to go now. You are so good looking, I really want to be friends with you and invite you to my house. Although Mom is so nice, there are very few here so I don’t even have any friends.”

Xiao Guang pulled out a piece of melted chocolate from his little pocket, “Mom said that Papa brought me this chocolate from abroad. I didn’t even bother to eat it, so I’ll give it to you.”

Bai Lixin took the chocolate and called out to Xiao Guang who was about to leave, “Xiao Guang, I’m glad to meet you, can I come and play at your house?”

Xiao Guang’s dark eyes stared straight at Bai Lixin, “Of course!”



Xiao Guang pedaled very slowly and he smiled at Bai Lixin who was walking beside him, “Is the fat bird on your shoulder your pet? Xin Xin?”

Fat+bird-Su Fan : “……”

‘I’ll fucking peck you to death! You’re the fat bird!’

“Yeah,” Bai Lixin soothingly stroked the ruffled Su Fan, “ it’s more than my pet; it’s my friend and my home.”

Xiao Guang’s eyes lit up, “Can I pet it then? It looks fun to play with.”

“Well,” Bai Lixin’s voice was childish, “you’ll have to ask him what he wants.”

Xiao Guang turned to Su Fan, who turned his head away.

The little child’s head drooped in a loss, “It doesn’t seem to like me.”

“Take your time,” Bai Lixin said nonsense with his eyes wide open, “It’s not yet familiar with you but it’ll get better with time. Xiao Guang, who else stays at your home?”

Little Light: “There’s Papa, mother, Brother, and me. Papa isn’t always home, so it’s usually just mother, brother and me.”

Bai Lixin: “What is your brother’s name?”

Xiao Guang seemed happy to have found a topic of conversation and he said, “Brother is very nice, his name is Xixi. Xiao Guang likes Brother the most, and he likes to play hide and seek.”

“Let’s play hide and seek with Brother later, okay?”

Xixi, that would be Liang Xi.

Liang Xi was still alive, despite the fact that Xiao Guang had begun to integrate into the family.

Bai Lixin’s hanging heart dropped a little.

Xiao Guang rode the rocking car into the yard with Bai Lixin. He was drawn to the flower pond as soon as he entered the courtyard.

In front of the fence, a patch of moonflowers had been planted; the moonflowers were so bright and colorful that they instantly brightened up the dark and dense space like a crayon painting.

The owner clearly loved the garden; the flowers were beautifully pruned, and the soil looked as if it had just been turned over.

Bai Lixin stared at the flower garden for three seconds before entering the house at Xiao Guang’s call.

The house was a little old, but the rooms had been cleaned in an orderly fashion.

One might even say it was a little OCD.

Shoes were neatly arranged on shoe racks, with the shoes belonging to the man on the topmost layer. The heels on each layer were in a straight line.

The entrance hall had been meticulously cleaned, leaving no trace of dust.

Xiao Guang took out a pair of slippers. “Xin Xin, here, change into these.”

Bai Lixin said “thank you”, took the slippers and changed them, then placed the shoes neatly according to the way the rest was organized.

“What a polite child.” A female voice suddenly came from behind, and Bai Lixin turned back to finally see the woman’s face.

The woman looked a little haggard at first, but it didn’t hide the delicacy and beauty of her face.

The woman propped her hands on her knees and bent over with a gentle smile: “What a beautiful little boy, welcome to my home, quickly, come in.”

Her eyes moved from Bai Lixin’s face to Su Fan, and the gentle smile stiffened for a second, “This bird ……”

Bai Lixin: “It is very smart, it will not shed, nor urinate or defecate anywhere. Can I bring it with me?”

The woman smiled again, “Since you have said so, then enter. But I will be angry once you get the house dirty.”

Xiao Guang pointed at the crow and whispered: “Mother is so scary when angry, so you must not urinate or defecate anywhere, okay?”

Su Fan: “……”

You’re the one peeing and defecating everywhere!

Bai Lixin could smell food when he finally entered the hall.

Everything was neatly arranged in every corner, even the colors and sizes were in one setting.

“Xiao Guang, go upstairs and call your brother; dinner will be ready soon,” the woman said as she walked towards the kitchen.

Xiao Guang: “Okay, Mom! Do you want to come along, Xin Xin? I’ll take you to my toy room.”

Of course Bai Lixin had to go, how could he not?

He followed Xiao Guang to the first floor, where he was led to a room and told him, “This is my toy room, come in.”

Xiao Guang quickly opened the room, exposing the somewhat empty room inside.

The floor was covered with tatami mats, and four-wheel drive cars and basketball type toys were neatly arranged on shelves.
