Not really?

The middle-aged man smiled bitterly.

Get his attention?

That's really a crude method.

...

"You said... the tomb ghost keeps following me because I took its belongings?"

"As long as I give the thing back to it, it will leave?"

The middle-aged man confirmed.

"Yes."

Xiao Xiao nodded.

"Can you remember what you took that day?"

...

The smile on the middle-aged man's face became increasingly bitter.

He shook his head, "I thought about it carefully just now."

"I don't remember taking anything that wasn't my own."

"but......"

"After all, it's been a week, and my memory is a little blurry."

"I don't know if I overlooked anything."

The middle-aged man hesitated.

He looked at the young man in front of him, "Classmate Xiao, can't you just ask...that...grave ghost, what did I take from it?"

"It says, no matter what, as long as I take it, I will give it back."

…

He originally thought it was that simple...

Xiao Xiao's face showed a bit of helplessness, "It doesn't know."

"……ha?"

The middle-aged man thought he heard wrongly, "What did you say?"

"It... doesn't know?"

Seeing the young man in front of him nodding towards him, the middle-aged man felt an unknown fire rush into his heart, and his voice suddenly became louder again.

"It doesn't know that it follows me every day?!"

The man took a breath.

"Ah."

He couldn't help laughing, his tone full of sarcasm.

"It doesn't know what it lost, but it knows that I took it?"

So magical?

"How badly have I been hurt by it these days?"

"I work so hard during the day, but I don't get a good rest at night."

"I have to try my best to hide it from my family and prevent them from discovering my abnormality..."

"it-"

The man took a deep breath and lowered his voice, "Is it looking for fun in me?"

What did he take from it?

Just an excuse, right?

…

Xiao Xiao understood the man's mood.

The Tomb Ghost's answer does sound a bit childish.

only……

"Uncle Chen, it won't joke about this."

Xiao Xiao looked at the middle-aged man seriously.

"how do you know?"

The middle-aged man blurted out, "Don't these weird things like to play pranks?"

He now really suspected that the torment he had experienced during this period was just the product of a prank played by that tomb ghost on a whim.

There was a trace of anger on the man's face.

Xiao Xiao did not answer the middle-aged man's next words. He just smiled and answered his previous question, "I know."

The middle-aged man looked angry for a moment.

I know?

What's the meaning?

…

"Grave ghosts cannot leave the cemetery for too long."

"otherwise……"

"It might die."

After Xiao Xiao finished speaking, the air was stagnant for a moment.

"ah?"

Two children cried out.

When Xiao Xiao and the middle-aged man looked at each other, they couldn't help but reach out and cover their mouths.

But soon, they gave up.

"Brother, aunt...will die?"

The boy asked cautiously.

The girl glanced at the tomb ghost, and then looked at Xiao Xiao eagerly.

The middle-aged man was also somewhat caught off guard by this information.

The fire in my heart was immediately extinguished by a basin of cold water.

His mouth was slightly open and his expression was a little embarrassed.

"Really, really?"

"Will it die?"

"If it continues to linger."

Xiao Xiao's eyes met the tomb ghost's one eye.

This sentence is also a reminder to this stubborn monster.

The tomb ghost's eyes wandered.

Then he turned his head slightly.

Xiao Xiao:......

This guy.

He sighed inwardly.

…

"That……"

The middle-aged man opened and closed his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.

It was the girl who spoke first.

The big black eyes looked at the middle-aged man with watery eyes. With a stern face, he prayed in a sweet voice, "Uncle, please return the things to auntie."

"Otherwise Auntie will die."

The boy also had a face full of pleading.

The middle-aged man rubbed his temples.
