Chapter 565 Promise me a request
Zhou's father heard Zhou's mother's shout, and quickly raised his head from a pile of debris.
"Okay, I'll be there right away."
He took out a wooden box, opened it, and looked at a star badge inside.
Then, holding the box together, he got up and walked towards the restaurant.
"Why did you take these things out again?"
Although Mother Zhou asked this question, when her eyes fell on the somewhat rusty star badge, she was full of tenderness.
“Seeing these things, it’s as if Xiaobai is still by our side.
When I just dug out this box, I had hallucinations, thinking that Xiaobai was speaking behind me. "
He smiled and shook his head: "Maybe I miss him too much."
Zhou Bai walked over in a daze, and said softly, "I'm here."
But this time, Father Zhou didn't turn his head the same way as before.
Maybe really just a coincidence...
Zhou Bai walked over with some disappointment, and sat next to them.
"I remember that when Zhou Bai was young, he liked to watch cartoons about fighting monsters the most.
After reading it, I always jump up and down at home, learning the lines and movements in it.
Said that when he grows up, he wants to fight monsters and save the world like the heroes in cartoons. "
Zhou's mother recalled Zhou Bai's appearance when he was a child, and there was a rare smile on her face.
“It’s the same for kids that age.
I remember Sister Li who used to live next door to us, and their child was the same age as Zhou Bai.
The child also yelled these words all day long. "
Papa Zhou thought of the brat next door, but his face was wrinkled.
"That kid is too mischievous, he can't compare with us Xiaobai."
After talking, the two looked at each other and smiled. The warm atmosphere made people forget that this world is full of crises.
Papa Zhou smiled and took out the star badge from the box.
Fingers rubbing the lines on it, eyes looking elsewhere, thoughts led by this star badge, back to those times in memory.
"Our Xiaobai has been a reliable little hero since he was a child.
Do you still remember the kid next door who brought a cat back from nowhere one day?
The cat was tied to the balcony by the child and almost fell to its death. "
Mother Zhou was deeply impressed by this matter, so she also frowned.
"The little girl who raised that cat was 6 or 7 years older than Zhou Bai.
Standing under the balcony, crying so loudly that the whole building could hear it. "
Although it was a bit inappropriate, Mother Zhou still couldn't help laughing when she thought of the little girl.
"The girls are only 13 or 4 years old, so they were probably shocked at the time."
Father Zhou went on to say: "Later, Xiaobai ran into their house and rescued the kitten."
Mother Zhou nodded proudly: "At that time, he had several cuts on his arm, which made my heart hurt so much that I couldn't even eat dinner."
Hearing this, Zhou Bai finally recovered some memory fragments of this matter.
“The little girl later gave Xiaobai this badge and praised him as a little hero.
Just this sentence made him so happy that he couldn't sleep for several nights, and he always knocked on our door in the middle of the night.
Just to ask us if he could really grow up to be a hero. "
Zhou's father and Zhou's mother couldn't help covering their mouths and laughing when they said this.
At this time, Zhou Bai also retrieved all the memories of this badge.
He remembers when he first got the badge, he put it in a box very solemnly indeed.
But, as he grew up, he was like all his peers.
Go to school, take exams, graduate, get a job, and become one of the many.
And the box containing the badge was forgotten by him, and it was piled up in the storage room together with his other toys and was covered with dust.
Zhou Bai stretched out his hand, wanting to touch the badge in his father's hand.
But when he touched Dad's hand, he saw the expression on his face suddenly changed.
"What's wrong?" Zhou's mother saw his strangeness.
"It's nothing, I just feel like a gust of wind has blown through my hand just now."
Zhou Bai hastily withdrew his hand back.
But Zhou's father suddenly looked in his direction.
"Why do I feel that Xiaobai is by our side?"
Hearing what he said, Zhou Bai's hands trembled a little.
Mother Zhou sighed softly, reached out and held Father Zhou's hand.
"I often feel the same way.
I think he might be sitting next to me.
Where I walked, he might have just stood there.
But, I know, it's no use trying to think about him.
We must live our own lives well, so that he can feel at ease outside. "
Father Zhou nodded heavily after listening.
"Yes, we can't drag him down.
What about the rules?
You take out the rules and check whether I have memorized them all. "
Mother Zhou let go of her hand, and took out a crumpled note from her pocket.
"Well, I'm watching, you can recite it."
Papa Zhou put down the badge and began to recite it.
"After eating every night, please put a bowl of clean water in the kitchen. If the water in the bowl disappears the next day, please leave the house immediately."
"In the kitchen, only one person is allowed in at a time."
"From 8:00 pm to 7:00 am the next day, please close all the windows in your house."
"Before opening all the doors, please knock ten times to make sure there are no strange sounds before you can enter."
…
Father Zhou recited the contents of the note one by one.
Mother Zhou watched him reciting, nodding to encourage him from time to time.
Amid their reciting, Zhou Bai slowly stood up from his chair, drifting to the window.
He raised his head and looked at the sun in the sky.
The glare of the sun made him squint his eyes.
As long as the sun is still there, it won't be too bad.
He closed his eyes, lowered his head, and saw a fat figure with curly short hair on the street downstairs, also looking in Zhou Bai's direction.
He turned his head and glanced at his parents who were still reciting the rules behind him.
Then the body passed through the window and floated downstairs.
"Calm down so soon?"
Aunt Wang was a little excited inside, but on the surface, she still maintained her usual fierce look.
Zhou Bai stopped in front of her, with a cold expression on his face, and didn't really care about her attitude.
"I can go with you.
But you must agree to one request. "
(Friends, there is only one update today.
Some things have to be busy recently, so there should be only one update these days.
In addition, after the main storyline of this book is over, I have prepared a few episodes.
There are some pits that cannot be filled in the main storyline, so I try to fill them in outside the episode.
Besides that, if you want to see any episodes, you can leave a message here, and I will come and watch. )
