Chapter 78 The Mysterious Child



Ever since he raised the child Long Sheng, Old Man Jin indeed felt that life was much more interesting than before, and at least he was not so lonely anymore.

Moreover, this child is very easy to raise. He has almost never been sick. Apart from eating, drinking, defecating and urinating normally, he has no other problems. When Old Man Jin first started raising him, he felt very fortunate.

But later on, we gradually discovered bigger problems.

That kid... always seems mysterious.

It didn't matter that the child refused to call him dad. Old Man Jin felt that it was a bit strange for him to be the father of such a young child at his age. Anyway, since the name was confirmed in the household registration book, he didn't care whether the child was called dad or not.

But there are many other problems besides this.

For example, this child is extremely smart and capable.

say?

He had raised him for only a year when the child began to speak very fluently. Although he spoke little, his pronunciation was clear and standard.

Well, that's a natural talent.

Then I started cooking for the child when he was three years old.

He still clearly remembered that day. He just went out to collect firewood, and when he came back he found that the meal was already prepared.

They are not even as tall as the stove, but they started cooking!

If outsiders saw this, they would think that this old man was abusing his adopted son, but God knows, he didn't even let him touch the rice spoon.

After this incident, Old Man Jin was so scared that he lectured him for several hours.

In short, from then on, Old Man Jin never let him cook again.

These are all minor issues.

But there has been one biggest problem in the past two years.

This kid keeps disappearing!

This is not a disappearance in the ordinary sense, it is a real disappearance!

The first time this child was "lost" was last year.

Old Man Jin was always afraid that his child would need to go to the toilet at night, so he always slept in the same room with the child. Besides, he was not comfortable leaving a three-year-old child alone.

But he didn't expect that not long after he fell asleep and woke up, he found that the child was gone.

Old man Jin searched for a long time but there was no trace of him.

He knew that no one would be willing to go up the mountain to look for people late at night, and no one would take the risk of a wild beast suddenly jumping out.

He originally wanted to ask Ling Hancheng, who had the best relationship with him and was most familiar with him, for help, but there were so many children in the Ling family. If anything happened to Ling Hancheng, it would be useless for him to die to apologize.

In the end, I gave up after smoking two packs of cigarettes.

At that time, Old Man Jin was wondering if God had destined him to have no children. Even if he picked up one, it would not belong to him.

At that time, he even prepared the rope for hanging himself.

If the child really cannot be found, there is no point in him living.

It's as desperate as it can be.

But as soon as the sky was getting light, he saw the child walking back slowly.

Although he looked a little tired, he didn't have any injuries on his body, as if he had just stayed outside for one night.

Old Man Jin was really confused at that time.

This is too weird.

If the child was stolen by someone, they would never let the child run back by himself. If the child ran away by himself, how could he come back at dawn if he knew the home address?

But no matter how Old Man Jin asked, the child just didn't say a word.

There was nothing he could do.

In the end, it ended in nothing.

But since then, Old Man Jin discovered that the child would do this from time to time.

That day might not have been the first time the child had "disappeared."

It can only be said that this was his first discovery.

Old Man Jin once tried to follow the child to see what he was doing, but he couldn't find him.

It was obvious that he had been dealing with this mountain for half his life, but in the end he was not as good as this kid.

The feeling of failure is really beyond words.

Although Old Man Jin has given up on finding out what the kid is doing, it would be great if someone could persuade the kid not to disappear so often.

Who knows, maybe Xiao Linglong and Long Sheng, being the same age, would be better able to communicate...
