"Before your brother was in a car accident, his special friend was targeted by someone with bad intentions."

"The other party is very powerful."

"Your brother is to protect his friend from being hurt by the other party..."

"In the end, I came up with this solution."

Xiao Xiao deliberately slowed down his speech a little so that the old man had more time to understand.

"Your brother hid his friend."

...

"Hidden in the jade ball?"

The old man feels like he is listening to a fantasy.

What friend... can hide in the jade ball?

Bugs? Butterflies?

No matter what it is, so many years have passed...

“It’s still alive?”

In fact, this sentence is just the old man's words to himself.

Because he knew the answer in his heart.

No wonder my brother must tell him these two words in the end...

It was to let him open the jade ball and release the creatures inside.

As a result, he disappointed his brother.

My brother valued friend...

The regret suddenly filled the old man's heart.

...

but-

"Already alive."

...

The old man looked shocked.

The voice changed a little, "Already alive?"

How is that possible?

“What the hell is it?!”

Aren't it an insect like a unicorn fairy, butterfly?

If it were them, where would these insects live now?

If it weren't for them, what creatures could hide in a small jade ball?

The old man doesn't know.

...

"It's a monster."

Xiao Xiao seemed to have just said two ordinary words.

The old man seemed to have suffered a huge impact.

"Monster, monster?!"

The old man screamed.

But the hoarse voice was not as loud as he thought.

...

Xiao Xiao told the story of the old man’s brother and the monster back then.

...

As Xiao Xiao told the story, the old man's intense emotions became increasingly weak.

The suspicion in his eyes gradually disappeared.

He naturally knew the best about his brother.

Many things this young man said, and retelling the words he said back then... without any deviation.

...

“…It’s really in the jade ball?”

The old man was silent for a long time before he spoke again.

"Um."

Xiao Xiao nodded.

"Monster...ah..."

There was a monster friend next to my brother...

"I don't know..."

"I never found it..."

"wrong."

The old man shook his head, "I can't see it, right?"

The old man looked at the young man in front of him.

Xiao Xiao nodded.

...

"I can't see... Xiaorong can't see either..."

"Only brother saw it..."

The old man murmured.

"Monster..."

“It’s OK?”

The old man thought of what the young man said just now.

“It’s good.”

Xiao Xiao smiled.

"I just stayed in it for too long and thought it out."

That's why some people hear it.

...

"yes."

The old man couldn't help but smile, "It's been a long time."

He had long gone from a vibrant boy to a gray-haired old man.

"It's my fault."

"If I hadn't been too cautious because it was the jade ball left by my brother..."

Perhaps he could open the jade ball earlier after constantly exploring.

The monsters inside can come out earlier.

...

"No."

Xiao Xiao shook his head, "You don't have to blame yourself."

"You can't open that jade ball."

...

"……ah?"

The old man wondered.

He can't open the jade ball?

...

Xiao Xiao's eyebrows and eyes were slightly bent.
