Chapter 2693 Bandit (40)
The next second, as if sensing something, she raised her head and swept her gaze.
Under the wooden steps, a figure was instantly hidden under the handrail.
seems to be a little panicked.
Like a flustered little mouse.
She tilted her head and put the food box behind her.
"Are you okay?"
She looked outside, the steps were covered with snow, a thin layer, and there were a few footprints on it.
There are cooks who deliver food, women who clean up, and a few small footprints.
is a child.
She looked at the place where the little figure was hiding, didn't close the door immediately, and waited.
After waiting for a long time, the timid little man slowly poked his head out, revealing a pair of big shy eyes.
His cheeks were flushed red from the cold, like a round red apple.
Wearing a thick felt hat, hiding behind the armrest, watching her.
Yun Si and him looked at each other, big eyes to big eyes.
He seemed a little afraid of her, and seemed to gradually let go of his guard.
Some of the cracked mouths moved, and the voice was so small that it was almost inaudible.
"Hello, sister."
It was the little boy from last time.
Last time she gave him a candy, and then he ran away.
Yun Si had forgotten about this at first, but now she was a little surprised to see him here.
"Hello."
She bent down slowly, "Are you okay?"
The little boy did not speak, but stared at her with flushed cheeks.
Hiding in the corner, without light, like a little mouse doing something silly.
Yun Si looked at him, and he also stared at Yun Si.
After a while, she seemed to have realized something, and said in a warm voice, "You want sugar, don't you?"
Children love to eat candy. It is not surprising for a child of his age to be craving candy.
The previous candy was brought over from Jiang Ning. Jiang Ning didn't like to eat it, so it naturally became hers.
She turned and went back to the house, found the sugar bowl, and grabbed a handful.
Back to the door, the little boy had already placed a small cloth bag in front of the door.
The little bag was wide open, waiting for her sugar.
The little boy returned to the corner of the stairs and looked at her.
There is a posture of hopelessness.
Yun Si put the sugar into a cloth bag and tied it up.
There was a cowhide roll next to it, tied with a rope, she looked over it suspiciously, "This is..."
"Send...for you."
The little boy looked a little silly and greedy, but he even understood the principle of reciprocity.
The bag was full of sugar, he trotted up, grabbed the cloth bag and ran.
Slender arms and legs, wearing heavy clothes, running is not bulky at all.
It disappeared in the blink of an eye, and its small body melted into the darkness.
Yun Si who was standing alone at the door, and the kraft paper lying in the snowdrift were left.
She looked at it, picked it up, untied the rope on the kraft paper, and opened it.
The topographic map immediately appeared in front of you.
densely packed, like a military defense map.
Exits, entrances, gates, secret passages, and all kinds of paths...
She froze slightly.
This is…
The lantern in front of the door was dimmed, and the blown out candles were stained with the frost of the winter night, making it chilly.
There is a wind blowing through the open door and into the house.
There was a warm light behind him, and the oblique light reflected the somewhat old kraft paper.
She stared fixedly, her white fingers shrinking.
A long period of silence.
There were suddenly more hands on her waist.
Hugged her from behind, the man's cold breath approached, his tone slightly strange.
"looking at what?"
