Monster Tea Party

Chapter 5268 Bad Luck
The uncle sneered.

"Sorry, sorry."

"I won't take up too much of your time."

"I just suddenly thought of something and wanted to talk to someone..."

"Thank you, young man."

……

Xiao Xiao shook his head slightly.

……

The uncle touched his neck.

Coughed a few times.

"...I don't know what's going on..."

"I suddenly remembered something just now..."

"Maybe it was stimulated by what happened today?"

……

The uncle looked ahead.

His eyes were a little dazed.

"Didn't I just tell you..."

"The last time I was this unlucky was when I was in elementary school..."

……

“…I was really unlucky at that time…”

The uncle smacked his lips and shook his head.

"I stepped on something while walking on the road and fell...I locked myself in the equipment room..."

"The money I had for shopping disappeared..."

"It's raining and the umbrella is broken..."

"I forgot my homework at home..."

“I clearly remember taking it…”

……

"Anyway..."

The uncle smiled bitterly, "There is nothing unlucky that I haven't encountered, except what you can't imagine."

……

"...you mentioned other things..."

The uncle shook his head, "For example, poor health, poor grades, poor sports..."

"We can find a way to solve these problems..."

"It can at least be improved, right?"

"But this matter of luck..."

"What are you going to do?"

"Pfft~"

The uncle suddenly laughed.

“My family sees me so badly…”

"So he took me to the temple to worship."

"I also asked the master for an amulet."

……

"In short, my family has made many attempts to prevent me from being so unlucky."

The uncle grinned.

"But it's no use at all."

"Even my grandma has started calling me a little unlucky kid, asking why I am so unlucky."

"Did you do something bad?"

"I said no."

"Although my grades were average at that time..."

The uncle shrugged his shoulders and said, "But I actually studied hard."

"Take classes seriously every day and complete homework on time."

"After all, children are very respectful of their teachers."

……

"I was so unlucky that I didn't want to go to school."

The uncle curled his lips, "But the adults didn't agree."

“They think, how can we not go to school?”

“School is the most important thing.”

“You can’t skip school.”

"As for bad luck..."

"All they could say was for me to pay more attention."

"Be careful."

"Don't give any bad luck a chance to happen."

……

The uncle spread his hands.

"Am I not careful and cautious?"

"I'm the unlucky one."

"I don't take it seriously once or twice."

"Three times, four times, five times, six times, and you still don't take it seriously. Am I stupid?"

"The problem is..."

"No matter how careful I am, bad luck will still happen to me."

"Not a bit less."

"I don't know what to do..."

“…I think the adults are getting bored.”

"You don't care about my affairs anymore."

"So you're just trying to fool me."

……

The uncle smiled.

The image of the little child in his memory at that time became clearer and clearer in front of his eyes.

"I feel angry."

Very aggrieved too.

He feels that adults don't love him anymore.

……

"Until one day..."

The uncle looked stunned.

He frowned.

There was a hint of struggle and confusion on his face.

……

The uncle knocked his head with his hand.

He knocked again, harder.

……

"If you haven't thought about what to say..."

Xiao Xiao smiled slightly, "It's okay if you don't say it."

……

"no……"

The uncle's voice softened.

"No."

The uncle smiled bitterly. "How long ago was that?"

"Is there anything bad to say?"

"Just don't laugh at me later."

……

"will not."

Xiao Xiao shook his head.

……

The uncle was slightly stunned, and couldn't help muttering, "Now you say it well..."

"I hope you won't really laugh at me later."

It doesn't matter if you laugh at him.

But we just met by chance.

We met today, and it might be the last time we meet.

This is the only time I'll laugh.

……

"It was raining that day..."

The uncle stared blankly at the lake in front of him.

The scene at that time gradually became colorful and vivid before his eyes.

……

This time his umbrella was neither broken nor missing.

He ran home happily holding an umbrella.

He was even thinking...

Is this the end of his bad luck?

His parents told him that a person's bad luck is limited.

When a person's bad luck reaches a certain level, good luck will come.

It will turn into good luck.

He always asks his parents: When will his luck change?
Mom and Dad asked him to wait patiently.

His good fortune will come soon.

Just when he was about to be completely disappointed with what his parents said...

Has his luck changed?

……

It has been a long time since he got home so smoothly on a rainy day.
Uh.

On the way home.

He couldn't help but quicken his pace.

He started running.

Otherwise, there is no way to vent the emotions bubbling inside.

……

"boom!"

……

The little boy lying on the ground slowly raised his head after a while.

My body and face were wet.

The rain hit my face and it hurt a little.

……

There was no intense emotion on the child's face.

He's used to it.

His expression was somewhat numb.

The previous joy was gone.

The aura around him also changed from light to heavy.

……

The child couldn't help but pursed his lips and punched hard into the puddle on the ground.

What transfer?
What is he happy about?
He is still so... unlucky...

……

This time it wasn’t me who did it.

……

An inexplicable voice sounded in the child's ears.

The child was startled.

He turned his head immediately.

who! ?

……

The overwhelming water vapor formed a thick mist.

The child narrowed his eyes slightly.

After a while, he finally saw a vague black shadow next to a telephone pole.

He asked uncertainly, "Is it you?"

"Were you talking to me just now?"

……

The black shadow was startled.

"Can you see me?"

……

The child was a little confused.

"Shouldn't I...see you?"

"Are you playing hide and seek?"

But who plays hide and seek on a rainy day?

I'm not stupid.

……

"No."

The shadow moved slightly.

……

The child got up from the ground.

He stood up.

Looking at the dark figure who was shorter than him, he was a little surprised, "You didn't bring an umbrella?"

"What's the point of you hiding from the rain here?"

The telephone poles don't block the rain.

The child thought the shadow was stupid.

……

The child looked around.

His umbrella was blown a little far away by the wind.

He ran over.

Caught it before a gust of wind could carry it away.

……

The child walked towards the shadow holding an umbrella.

……

As the distance got closer, the shape of the black shadow gradually became clearer in the child's eyes.

The child's steps are getting slower and slower.

Then it stopped.

"you……"

The child's eyes reflected the image of a dark shadow.
