Chapter 694 My Life Here
I wanted to cry.
But Siwei kept comforting me, which made me feel much better.
She said I was the real "hero" and that I saved everyone.
I held her hand all the time. All the adults scared me, but Siwei didn't seem to.
"Sister, are we going to go with them?" I pointed at the aunts and uncles in front of me.
Since they walked onto the street, they smelled very complicated, and they seemed to be thinking about a lot of things.
"Little hero, although I don't like them very much, this ghost place is too strange." She frowned and looked around the shabby city around her, "Anyway, more people are better than fewer people. It might be more dangerous if we go alone."
"Ah...?"
I find it a bit difficult to understand. The uncle who led the group clearly exuded the smell of "murderous intent". Didn't sister smell it? Or did she smell it and still think that uncle was safe?
At that time, I didn't think carefully about what my sister said, nor did I know that only I could smell that strange smell. Later, I thought that this might be the most painful decision in my life.
After walking a few hundred meters, the leading uncle seemed to think of something and turned back to stare at my sister.
My sister looked a little scared, but she still tried to hide me behind her.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
The leading uncle grinned and stood in front of the two of us.
"Little girl." The uncle called, "What's your name?"
"Li Siwei."
"Good name." The uncle nodded, "Just now I felt that you are very smart, do you want to cooperate?"
"Cooperation?"
"Yes." The uncle smiled, but he smelled bad, "Siwei, I am more or less a figure who calls the wind and rain outside. I usually like to work with smart people. This makes me feel that I have infinite power, so do you want to join us?"
After that, he took out a small cloth bag from his pocket and opened it to reveal the emerald green gravel inside.
"The leader just said that we need to collect tens of thousands of these small stones. The more people there are, the faster we can finish." Uncle said, "Do you know what the most important thing is to accomplish a big thing?"
"It's to survive." Sister said.
"No, it's to build an invincible team." Uncle smiled, "I have countless experience in building teams, and I will try my best to make use of everyone's strengths. You are a smart girl, so I invite you to join me and we will succeed together."
I hid behind my sister and didn't dare to speak, and I kept smelling the heavy smell on Uncle.
My sister hesitated for a while, frowned, and asked, "What's the name of this uncle?"
"My last name is Wan, Wancai." Uncle replied, "And don't call me "Uncle", I'm just forty."
This uncle is really strange. Only when he said his name and age, the heavy smell on him was less.
"Brother Wan." Sister changed her words and called, "I have met some big people before, but they don't talk like you. Have you really formed many teams? "
"Oh..." Uncle Wan's eyes changed when he saw my sister's eyes, and the smell on his body also decreased a little, "I didn't expect that Xiao Li is not very old, but he has a lot of experience. I have indeed formed many excellent teams, and I am their leader. It doesn't matter if you don't believe me. I will let you see my ability in future cooperation. Similarly, I also hope that you will shine and contribute to our big family. "
"Big family...?" My sister asked doubtfully.
"I have talked to several of them." Uncle Wan pointed to several aunts in the distance and smiled, "In the future, we will get along as "family", so that everyone will be more united and more motivated to do things. In the future, everyone will be a family in a big family. What do you think?"
The smell of "doubt" on my sister is getting stronger and stronger.
"Brother Wan... If I join your so-called "big family", what do I need to do?"
"It's nothing. "Uncle Wan replied, "The only requirement is that if there is anything, everyone should discuss it together. Our family guarantees fairness and justice. Anyway, there are only ten days. Let's try our best to collect these stones together."
That day, my sister thought about it again and again, and finally agreed to Uncle Wan's request.
Our lives have changed completely since that day.
There was nothing special in the first few days. Uncle Wan was really like a head of the family. He divided everyone into groups, arranged for them to participate in some games, and arranged for the remaining aunts who were not suitable for participating in the game to go out to find food.
But I don't know whether the aunts really couldn't find food, or there was no food in this place at all. They had returned empty-handed for two consecutive days, and only on the third day did they bring back some very unpalatable canned food and mineral water.
Uncle Wan smelled very angry, but he still greeted with a smile. He said "We are all family members", but the unpleasant smell on his body could not be covered up.
I often see Uncle Wan's eyes very cold in the middle of the night. He doesn't like to sleep. He just stares at other people in the middle of the night, and the smell on his body is getting more and more terrible.
Because my father often comes home drunk, I always dare not sleep too deeply. Every night, if there is any movement, I will wake up instantly, which also allows me to notice Uncle Wan's every move at night.
I will wake up as soon as someone turns over, and after waking up, I will subconsciously look at Uncle Wan, who never sleeps.
By the way, this may be my "specialty", right?
I mean... I wake up faster than others, so it should be my "specialty", right?
Why did I think of it now...?
Before, the teacher asked us to fill in our "specialties". I thought about it for a long time and could only write "no". Those children with specialties were praised by the teacher. The teacher asked us to applaud them, and I clapped harder than anyone else.
I don't know why I was so strong, but I just kept clapping. I really want to have a "specialty".
But now it's good. If the teacher asks us to write our "specialties" again in the future, I can write "wake up faster than others". Will the teacher praise me?
Will there be children applauding me?
Can I... see them again? Can I still see Xu Jiahua...?
I still want to cry.
Although I don't miss my parents and teachers, I really want to cry.
I sleep on my sister's shoulder every night. I don't like those adults. I only like my sister.
But my sister looks very tired recently. She even cut her palm today.
She kept telling me "it's okay", but I always felt something was wrong. Her smell began to become turbid.
Uncle Wan didn't assign me any work, just asked me to stay in the house all the time.
Fortunately, I can clean the house. I clean the house very clean every day and wait for everyone to come back.
But the atmosphere of the adults became more and more tense day by day, and they started to quarrel more and more. Finally, on the sixth day, something unexpected happened.
