After eating snacks and drinking tea, Xiao Xiao said goodbye to the old man again.

This time the old man didn't stop anyone.

…

The old man simply waved to his grandson.

"Be safe on your way back to school."

"When crossing the road, pay attention to the cars on both sides, even if the sidewalk is green..."

…

"knew."

Xiao Xiao nodded in response.

"I'll pay attention."

"Then grandpa, I'm leaving."

"goodbye."

…

"goodbye."

The old man watched his grandson walk out of the courtyard gate.

When his grandson's back was no longer visible, the old man withdrew his gaze.

He looked at the chessboard.

Then raise your eyes.

There was a deep smile on his face.

"Let's continue playing chess."

"I will definitely perform better in this round than in the last round."

The old man is quite gearing up.

…

Xiao Xiao stepped out of the courtyard gate.

The plum fragrance lingering on my nose immediately dissipated.

He smiled.

He closed the gate of the yard behind him.

…

Walking out of the alley, the sun suddenly shone in front of my eyes.

Xiao Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly.

The steps did not stop.

…

The streets were busy with traffic and noisy sounds could be heard.

Very lively.

People's mood can't help but be infected and become a little lighter.

…

"Ouch!"

The old lady let out a cry of pain.

The vegetable basket in my hand fell to the ground.

The dishes inside rolled all over the floor.

…

"my type!"

The old lady didn't care about anything else and hurriedly bent down to pick up the vegetables.

…

The "culprit" on the side was at a loss for a few seconds, then he seemed to react and squatted down to pick up the vegetables.

…

There is strength in numbers.

The two of them picked up vegetables together, and soon almost all the vegetables on the ground were picked up.

…

The old lady stood up holding her waist.

People are older.

This waist won't work.

The old lady frowned.

She looked at the vegetable basket, then raised her eyes and looked around.

I want to see if there are any "fish that slipped through the net".

…

The old lady hasn't noticed yet.

The boy had already seen a small green pepper lying on the roadside.

He didn't think much and walked over subconsciously.

He bent over -

"beep!"

The sharp sound of the horn was mixed with the sound of tires rubbing against the ground during emergency braking.

It made the hearts of everyone who heard it jump heavily.

His face looked horrified.

…

"Are you OK?"

Xiao Xiao slowly let go of the hand holding the young man's arm.

…

The boy's pale, bloodless face was blank.

What?

He blinked sluggishly.

ah……?

He opened his mouth.

But no sound was made.

…

"Are you OK!?"

The old lady walked over in a hurry.

There was a look of shock on his face.

"Ouch~"

"Oh my God."

"It was really scary just now!"

…

The old lady's somewhat shrill voice reunited the young man's wandering thoughts.

He seemed to have suddenly come back to his senses.

His expression suddenly became vivid.

But my throat still seemed to be blocked by something and I couldn't make a sound.

…

"Are you OK?!"
