A passerby in a horror movie

Li Haotian felt quite sorry for the mother and son.

Especially Xiaobai, who could have lived a good life with his family, now can only stay in the residential building all day. Let alone go to school, it is not easy for him to even live a peaceful life.

Fortunately, they were lucky. The apartment building had a kind-hearted building manager named Uncle Yan, and the neighbors were on good terms with each other. They didn't make things difficult for the mother and daughter and even helped them out from time to time.

In other places, the wife and children of a convicted alkali offender would be unable to survive simply because of the discriminatory looks from others.

Although Li Haotian was only there to complete the mission, he was still willing to help out whenever he could.

"Little friend, what are you drawing?"

Li Haotian squatted down in front of Xiaobai and said softly.

This child not only has albinism, but also has a somewhat withdrawn personality. If we can gain his favor, completing the task will be easier.

Otherwise, even if he wanted to protect Xiaobai, there was nothing he could do if she didn't appreciate it and ran off.

Xiaobai's drawing looks quite messy, but you can vaguely make out a human figure, like someone hanging themselves.

This is too eerie.

Li Haotian picked up a piece of chalk and drew a cat on the ground.

He started drawing in elementary school and his drawing skills are quite good. In less than two minutes, a lifelike white cat appeared in Xiaobai's eyes.

Although Xiaobai remained silent, its eyes were fixed on the white cat. It raised its head and looked at Li Haotian with a look of great admiration.

"Uncle... Uncle, how do you draw this? Can you teach me?"

Xiao Bai has a soft voice and a pair of round eyes that look especially cute.

"Of course, you can learn to draw with me every day from now on."

Li Haotian smiled and patted Xiaobai's head.

This child is very sensible. Even without a mission, if Li Haotian had the ability, he wouldn't want to watch him die.

Ah Feng looked at Li Haotian chatting with Xiao Bai and felt somewhat at a loss.

Although she was mentally unstable, she could still sense Li Haotian's kindness, so she did not stop him and just stood by and smiled foolishly.

Uncle Yan was also very pleased.

However, things weren't so good for Ajiu on the other side.

"Cough, cough, cough."

Inside Aunt Mei's room, Ah Jiu's cough worsened until he took a drag of his cigarette and it finally stopped.

"Ah Jiu, when will Dong Ge come back to life?"

Aunt Mei looked at Ah Jiu pleadingly.

"Seven days to recover. After seven days, Dong-ge should be back."

"Should? What if we don't have enough time?"

"If it's really too late, I have another way."

"any solution?"

"I won't do it unless it's absolutely necessary... We'll talk about it later."

Ah Jiu's expression changed slightly. She stopped talking to Aunt Mei and left, returning to her own home.

"Cough cough cough."

When Ajiu got home, her cough became even worse, and she coughed up blood.

I took a big drag of the ghost smoke and only then did I recover a little.

"Hehe, it's almost done, it's almost done..."

Ah Jiu's expression was ferocious. In order to survive, he was willing to raise ghosts and kill people. He would not let his plan fail no matter what.

Thinking of the young man Uncle Yan brought today, Ajiu frowned; he had a bad feeling about this young man.

Moreover, with a young man patrolling the building, there might be some unforeseen changes, so he needs to keep a closer eye on things.

The next day soon came.

Li Haotian got up early, first inspected the building, then delivered food to Ah Feng and her son, played with Xiao Bai for a while, and then strolled around the corridor.

They said they were just strolling around, but in reality, they were taking the opportunity to keep an eye on Aunt Mei and Ah Jiu.

Aunt Mei got up very early and secretly went out to buy groceries, bringing home a lot of things.

Because Aunt Mei had locked the door, Li Haotian couldn't get in, but he had already come up with an excuse.

"Dong dong dong."

Holding a piece of clothing in his hand, Li Haotian knocked on Aunt Mei's door.

"Who is it?"

Upon hearing the knock, Aunt Mei, who was slaughtering crows in the kitchen, froze. She quickly tidied up her things, locked the bathroom door, and then opened the bedroom door a crack.

"Hello Aunt Mei, I heard from my uncle that you can mend clothes here. My clothes have a tear, could you please mend them?"

As he spoke, Li Haotian shook his clothes.

"Oh, no problem."

Aunt Mei took the clothes away but didn't let him in, though Li Haotian's purpose wasn't to go in either.

Through the doorway, Li Haotian roughly memorized the layout of Aunt Mei's house.

I saw the location of the restroom and smelled a faint fishy odor.

"It takes some time to mend clothes, so why don't you come this afternoon or tomorrow?"

Seeing Li Haotian standing at the door without leaving, Aunt Mei hurriedly urged him to leave.

"Okay, thank you, Aunt Mei."

Li Haotian smiled and then left.

Li Haotian silently returned to the meter room and found Ah Feng and her son.

"Sister Feng, do you know Aunt Mei?"

Li Haotian asked Ah Feng.

Ah Feng didn't say anything, she just nodded with a silly smile.

"Where's her husband, Uncle Dong? Has he been away from home these past few days?"

Li Haotian pressed on with further questions.

In the movie, Ah Feng has some special abilities.

She could see ghosts and underworld messengers, and it was she who discovered that Ah Dong had been killed and told Uncle Yan.

Unfortunately, because she was mentally unstable, no one believed her.

Uncle Yan did discover Ah Dong's gold tooth and wanted to investigate, but he was killed by the corrupted Aunt Mei.

Although Li Haotian only accepted the commission to protect Xiaobai, it's always better to have as few people die as possible.

After all, there aren't many good people like Uncle Yan in this world.

Although this is just Ah Hao's fantasy world, the people Li Haotian comes into contact with are all real. Regardless of whether they are real or fake, he doesn't want Uncle Yan to die.

Therefore, he did not intend to resolve this matter with the help of Uncle Yan.

Uncle Yan was just an ordinary person, and an old man at that, with no fighting ability whatsoever.

"Uncle Dong is dead. He was killed by a bunch of kids following behind him. It has nothing to do with me, nothing to do with me..."

Ah Feng shook her head, her words erratic.

Li Haotian was now completely certain that Uncle Dong was dead.

Just like in the movie, she was discovered by Ah Feng.

After thinking for a moment, Li Haotian turned to Xiaobai and said:

"Xiaobai, shall I take you out to buy paintbrushes?"

He had a plan, but he needed to send Xiaobai away first to prevent the boy from running off to Aunt Mei's house again and causing an accident.

After all, he had just arrived. Although he had won Xiaobai's favor, Xiaobai would probably still trust Aunt Mei, with whom he had known for many years.

If he doesn't let Xiaobai go to Aunt Mei's house, Xiaobai probably won't listen to him.

"it is good."

Upon hearing about buying paintbrushes, Xiaobai's eyes lit up. Although he was timid, he couldn't resist the temptation.

Having played alone for many years without any friends, Xiaobai also longs to be like other normal children.

"Sister Feng, I'm taking Xiaobai out for a bit, I'll be right back."

Li Haotian said to Ah Feng.

Ah Feng nodded with a silly smile. She could feel the goodwill that Li Haotian was showing, and since she knew that Li Haotian was Uncle Yan's nephew, she did not stop him.

Li Haotian took Xiaobai to a nearby convenience store, bought a set of paintbrushes and some sketchbooks, and then went to Uncle Yan's duty room.
