"Yeah, for us, what if we know that monsters are real?"

Xiaolu said with a sad look on his face, "Is it any different from when you didn't know?"

"No difference at all!"

"There's no sense of reality at all."

"Like you, at least you heard some sounds."

"Greedy is bad."

Xiaolu felt quite angry after talking about it.

…

Well……

Pei You felt a lot better after being comforted by Xiaolu, who seemed to be "accusing" him. He also felt a little guilty for no reason.

She was the only one who heard the monster's voice. Wasn't she too cunning?

Moreover, she asked for more, feeling sad that she could not see the appearance of the monster, but she did not understand the feelings of Xiaolu and her brother.

As Xiaolu said just now, is she very greedy?

"sorry."

She opened her mouth.

…

"Fool."

Xiaolu was stunned for a moment, then patted Pei You on the shoulder, "What are you apologizing for?"

"Maybe I can see if I suddenly open my eyes from behind?"

"Don't envy me too much then."

"...Isn't that called Sky Eye?"

"What's that called?"

"Oh, don't worry about the details so much."

"It's good if you understand what I mean."

…

Xiao Xiao stood up, and the two girls stopped joking with each other and looked over.

Pei Liang stood up and asked, "Master Xiao?"

"It's getting late, I should go back."

"Master Xiao, I'll see you off."

Pei Liang said immediately.

"Ah, I'm going back too."

Xiaolu also stood up. She looked at Pei You and said, "Xiaoyou, are you going back to school?"

"I'll come back tomorrow."

She still wanted to stay and try to see if she could hear the monster's voice again.

"My brother and I will take you back to school together."

…

In the car, Pei You turned his head from time to time to look at Xiao Xiao, who was sitting by the window, with a look on his face that he was hesitant to speak.

Xiao Xiao closed his eyes slightly, and when Pei You looked over for the third time, he said unhurriedly, "What do you want to ask?"

"Hey, can I ask?"

Pei You shouted in surprise.

Xiao Xiao glanced at her, and the sunlight fell on his sparse eyebrows, creating a soft halo, "You can ask."

"It doesn't matter if you just answer or not."

Pei You, who just thought he saw the Holy Father:...

The degree of my eyes is probably too dark, right?

…

Xiao Lu and Pei Liang, who had been listening to their conversation with their ears pricked up, were also speechless.

Pei You calmed down and looked at Xiao Xiao with a serious face, "Master Xiao, I was too excited about the fact that monsters really exist, so I gave up on this issue."

"Now, I would like to ask you a serious question. I hope you can answer me."

"Can that monster hurt people?"

Even if she has read the monster images portrayed in novels and anime, she also knows that real monsters are far less cute.

The monster legends that have been passed down to this day mostly contain negative content.

Especially in the eyes of the older generation, aren't monsters... all cannibals?

However, she always remembered those words, "Play with me."

The monster who said such a thing... shouldn't be too bad... right?

…

Xiao Xiao opened his eyes and looked into the girl's worried eyes, "That's a playful monster."

Playful?

The girl was stunned for a moment, but then a comfortable smile appeared on her face.

That means it really doesn't mean to hurt anyone, right?

Previous drownings of children were accidental.

It just wants someone to play with it, right?

But... they can't see it.

A sigh overflowed from the girl's heart.

…

"Does it want someone to play with it?"

The deer murmured.

"That was my original intention, but I didn't grasp the right balance. I was a bit ignorant of the importance."

Xiao Xiao said quietly, "I've told it not to hold on to humans next time."

...

"If I could see it, I would be happy to play with it."

The deer held his chin in his hands, looking regretful.

"Um."

Pei You responded softly.

She regretted that she didn't reply "Okay" after hearing the monster's words.

Perhaps, that was the only time in her life that she heard the voice of a monster.

If you missed that opportunity, when will the next opportunity be?

...

For the rest of the journey, the car was very quiet.

"Master Xiao, here we are."

Pei Liang stepped on the brakes.

"Thanks."

"Master Xiao, goodbye."

"Goodbye, Master Xiao."

"goodbye."

...

A few days later, Xiao Xiao received a call from Pei You.

Although he thought about finding time to see the Drowned Ghost later, he didn't expect this opportunity to come so quickly.
