Chapter 1081 Kevin Who Plays Truant

? Outside the window, there is nothing.

Hearing that strange "hissing" sound, it seemed to be coming from the water pipe next to the window. And this water pipe has been leading from the eaves to the manhole cover in the alley downstairs, and its function is naturally to pour rainwater on rainy days.

Of course, little Kevin didn't understand these things—he was too short to poke his head out of the window, let alone look at the pipes attached to the outer wall.

After pondering for a while, he finally gave up looking for the source of the sound, yawned and got under the covers to sleep.

So, there was nothing to say all night.

Until the next morning, when the window slowly changed from dark to full, and then it was bright again. Little Kevin's mother, who had been busy all morning, finally pushed the door in and woke him up by pushing him.

Yesterday was Sunday, and today began another Monday—she had to find time to send the children to preparatory school.

There is no way, after all, I am a mother, and I always hope that the child can sleep for a while. However, it is obvious that school cannot be delayed. In two years, this child will also go to a private middle school like the little Demi next door.

After helping her son wash up in a hurry, and then had a peaceful breakfast, she picked up the schoolbag that she had prepared earlier, and took the child to the independent preparatory school not far away.

"Hey, Kevin! Come here!"

Just as he walked across the school, Little Kevin heard a familiar voice calling his name across the street.

As he was about to cross the road with his mother, he took a closer look, and it turned out to be his best friend Candice at school. She was waiting for him at the school gate today!

"Mom, I'll go first!"

"Wait, take a look when crossing the road... Oh, really, what should I do if something goes wrong?"

Little Kevin's mother didn't catch one, and saw the child snatch the schoolbag in her hand and quickly cross the street, and went straight to the little girl standing by the school gate.

"Tsk," he heard his mother smack her tongue, "this kid is just like his father back then, when he sees a girl, he runs away like a pug, and he can't even be pulled!"

But after muttering something like this, she suddenly couldn't help laughing again. After watching her son and the girl walk into the school gate together, she turned and left with confidence.

However,

Almost when she turned the corner at the other end, the little girl in the front yard of the school reached out and grabbed the little Kevin's clothes.

"Wait a minute!"

The girl named Candice turned her head around again, and after confirming it carefully, she leaned over to Kevin, who had an unclear face, and whispered:

"Come with me!"

After all, she didn't give little Kevin any time to think, she grabbed his clothes and ran towards the playground on the right side of the school courtyard.

"Hey! Why—"

"Easy!"

Kevin still wanted to ask a question, but Candice immediately lowered her voice and interrupted him.

"Don't let the teacher at the school gate hear it... Of course, don't let her see it! Quietly, just come with me..."

Candice ran while talking, and took Kevin all the way across the playground to the small woods on the edge of the playground. And although her little hand could not continue to hold on to Kevin's clothes on the way, the latter still subconsciously followed her and continued to run until she came to the innermost wall of the woods.

It wasn't until this moment that the two children finally stopped running and supported the tree trunk to breathe for a while.

When he was able to speak, little Kevin said intermittently:

"Candice, what are you...what are you bringing me here for? The teacher is due to come into the classroom in a few minutes. Do you want us all to be late?"

But soon, he saw a smug smile on the face of his good friend opposite.

"Late?" Candice straightened up and said with akimbo, "That's not true! To be precise, it's 'truancy'!"

"what--"

Little Kevin opened his mouth wide when he heard it, and then shook his head hastily.

"No, no, why do you want to skip school all of a sudden... I can't accompany you. If my mother finds out, she will hang me on the street lamp outside my house!"

"Oh, what a horrible mother!" Candice curled her lips disapprovingly, and then she said proudly, "Let me tell you, one of my older brothers told me that everyone would play truant in middle school—because of this Your students are the coolest, understand?"

"What does that have to do with me?" Little Kevin stood up straight and made gestures above his head, then said depressedly, "I'm the shortest in my class, and I'm sure it has nothing to do with the word 'cool' in middle school! You see, this is not a problem that can be solved by skipping school."

"Kevin!"

Seeing that her good friend refused to play truant, Candice bit her lip and seemed a little angry.

"Didn't you promise me? You can do whatever I want with me, why are you going back on your word now? Okay, it's fine if you don't go, and I'll ignore you in the future!"

After finishing speaking, Candice turned her head and walked along the wall, really not wanting to pay attention to Kevin anymore.

Seeing this, the little Kevin behind him immediately struggled in place with a face full of embarrassment. He looked at Candice, who was gradually going away, and then looked back at the school on the other side of the forest, full of hesitation.

But he also knew that Candice was a very boyish girl, and her personality was even more direct than most boys. She said that if she ignores herself in the future, she will definitely not be friends with herself again.

After weighing several times between the reprimands of his friends and his mother, little Kevin finally gritted his teeth, pulled out his legs and chased after Candice.

"I don't care!"

...

A moment later, two small figures drilled one after another through the small hole in the wall at the base of a damaged wall behind the school.

"Look! You can go outside from here!"

As soon as Kevin came out, before he got up, he looked up and saw Candice crossed her hips again with a proud face.

He nodded helplessly, and after carefully looking left and right, he said with a bitter face:

"Well, you are amazing... Candice, you see, I have already accompanied you out of school, should you forgive me?"

"Humph?"

Candice heard the words, looked him up and down, and after a while, she reluctantly said:

"Okay! For the sake of you not running back, we are still good friends."

However, when children are keen on something, they always forget a lot. No, just after finishing speaking, Candice immediately waved her hand, and a bright smile appeared on her face again.

"Don't stop, this is just the beginning! Follow me!"

After that, she immediately grabbed Kevin's clothes and dragged her to the opposite side - there was a river behind the school, and it seemed that she wanted to play with Kevin by the river.

And just when little Kevin followed Candice to another forest on the other side of the path with his mouth flattened, he heard Candice in front of him say excitedly:

"Kevin, do you know? Dad took me to visit an uncle near the school yesterday. When Dad and uncle were talking about things, I came here to have a look... Guess what I found?"

"What?" Kevin asked suspiciously.

"Guess!" Candice staggered him with a force on purpose, "If I tell you directly, it would be so boring... It's easy to guess, you still remember you said last week that you want a what?"

"Last week?" Kevin tilted his head while thinking while walking, and walked a few more steps, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "Could it be...you found the tree house here?"

I still remember that last week, a classmate talked about his older brother during get out of class time, saying that his brother built a tree house in his backyard by himself.

To have a secret base like that is obviously a pretty "cool" thing for every kid—at least it's much cooler than skipping school and the like!

Little Kevin said at the time that he also hoped to have a tree house of his own, and that he was willing to invite Candice to be his first guest in the tree house.

It's a pity that he can only think about it that way, after all, there are no such thick trees near his house - besides, he doesn't know how to build a tree house?

However, just as Little Kevin was looking forward to the long brown hair behind Candice's head, he shook his head when he saw the other party following closely.

"Not a tree house."

All the expectations were dashed, and Kevin immediately became listless—it really is wrong to play truant, so let’s find a way to persuade Candice to go back later!

But when he was thinking about what reason he should use to explain his lateness to the teacher, Candice turned around and said:

"However... Although it is not a tree house, it is a more interesting place than a tree house, and it can also be regarded as a secret base that only belongs to the two of us!"

While Candice was talking, she suddenly saw a bright light in front of her eyes—the two finally walked out of the woods beside the road!

And the moment they came outside the woods, at the bottom of a sloping land, the wide river immediately caught their eyes.

"There it is! See it?"

After looking at the calm river for a while, Candice pointed to a place near the river below the slope. Little Kevin on the side heard the sound, and couldn't help but follow her fingers and look over.

"Oh! What's that? It looks dirty—"

What Candice pointed to was not difficult to find, and soon he saw a sewer outlet with a large diameter. It's just that the drain seems to have not discharged sewage for a long time. Although it looks dirty, there is no trace of water.

Not long after, the two children walked slowly down the slope and came to the side of the drain.

"I went in and looked at it yesterday, and inside—"

"Hush!" Little Kevin suddenly covered her mouth, tilted his head and said, "I seem to hear something... ah! It's that voice again!"
