Monster Tea Party

Chapter 5316: Dark fairy tale?

The child was able to “clear his name”.

It was she and the child's father who wronged the child.

The child did see the old man with green hair.

Then why can't she and the child's father see it?
Women are strange.

……

The woman rubbed her temple.

Her head ached from thinking so much.

……

The woman shook her head.

no……

No one has found it yet...

Why is she getting a headache here first?
What if the man doesn’t find the old man with green hair?
Then everything she was agonizing about just now would no longer be valid.

……

The woman found it somewhat amusing.

Moreover, regardless of whether the other party found it or not...

There was probably no way she would know.

So……

Just pretend nothing has changed.

This is the most convenient and safest way.

……

"Thank you, little friend."

The uncle thanked the child again, "Thank you for telling me that you saw the old man with green hair."

No matter what, this made him more determined to continue searching.

.....
The child opened his eyes wide.

It was the first time that the child was thanked repeatedly by an uncle. He felt curious and a little embarrassed.

Still somewhat happy.

The child shook his head.

"...Uncle didn't find Grandpa..."

The child wanted to do more for his uncle.

……

"Ah."

The uncle nodded.

He really didn't find the grandfather in his memory.

but……

"Your words give me hope."

The uncle smiled.

I thought it was just his story.

did not think of……

Maybe there are other possibilities?
……

The child didn't understand what his uncle said.

But he could understand the smile on his uncle's face.

He couldn't help but grin.

……

"All right."

The uncle smiled and said, "I won't waste your time."

"You go."

"I'll walk around the neighborhood again."

……

The woman held the child's hand.

She smiled at the strange man.

The other party's consistent good attitude made the woman issue a friendly reminder, "You'd better go home early and change your clothes."

Although the temperature is quite high now, you don’t need to worry about catching a cold if you get wet…

But the strange man looked so embarrassed...

Doesn't he feel uncomfortable?
Wouldn’t it be better to go back, take a shower, change into clean clothes, and then go out feeling refreshed?
……

"it is good."

The uncle nodded, "I will."

"Thank you."

……

The woman smiled.

She looked down at the child, "Say goodbye to uncle, we're leaving."

……

The child opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something else, but in the end...

"... Goodbye, uncle."

The child arched his eyebrows.

……

"Goodbye."

The uncle watched the mother and son walk away.

He looked away.

The brim of the umbrella is raised.

He looked up at the still gray sky.

……

Today he can be said to have made... a great harvest.

There was actually a second person besides him...

See the old man with green hair.

……

So……

Some conclusions about his experience...

It may not be accurate.

……

The uncle turned his head left and right.

Tsk.

The uncle smacked his lips.

He's been around here for a while.

How come the child saw an old man with green hair...

But he didn't see it?

……

Is the other party avoiding him?
……

The uncle shook his head.

Why did the other party avoid him?
If the other party insists that he stole the old man's peaches, he is right.

If the other party accepted his explanation...

Knowing that he ate the old man's peach by accident...

There was no conflict between them. Instead, the other party felt a little embarrassed about him because of this misunderstanding...

There will be, right?

He suffered a lot of bad luck because of the two peaches.

The result can be said to be an unprovoked disaster.

He really didn't mean to eat the old man's two peaches.

I am also willing to compensate the old man with two peaches.

……

Who should I tell...
Everyone would think that the old man’s behavior was not generous enough.

……

The uncle walked around in a disheveled state.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

It was rare to get some news, so the uncle couldn't help feeling reluctant to go back like this.

……

But no matter how unwilling you are, you can't change the outcome.

The uncle stopped.

He is tired of walking.

Plus I feel tired.

He suddenly regretted it.

Why did he go to so much trouble to find that old man?
Nothing much...

Maybe……

I want to give myself an explanation at that time...

……

The uncle shook his head.

So many years have passed...

Explain or not...

Does it make sense?

……

No more looking.

The uncle gave up.

The uncle stretched himself lazily.

Anyway, if there is a chance...

He doesn't have to look for him himself, the old man will appear in front of him.

Didn’t he see it twice today?

And the kid saw it too...

Although it is not clear whether they are seeing the same person...

……

The uncle decided to let nature take its course.

Besides, there was nothing he could do even if he wanted to force it.

He couldn't find the old man.

It's such an obvious feature...
He asked a lot of people...

No one saw it except the child.

This made him start to doubt the authenticity of the old man again.

but……

The child saw...

The uncle is very conflicted.

what happened?

It would be fine if he was the only one who saw it...

Now there is one more child who also saw it.

This caused him to become wildly shaken about the facts he had originally believed.

……

The uncle looked down at the clothes he was wearing.

He reached out and pulled again.

Tsk.

The uncle curled his lips.

He had never been so slovenly.

All to find that old man...

……

gone back.

I didn't feel it when I was looking for it.

Now it has stopped.

The uncle began to clearly feel the discomfort of his clothes sticking to his body.

The uncle felt a little irritated.

He was already a little depressed because he didn't find anyone.

……

Even though he wanted to get home quickly to take a shower and change clothes, the uncle's pace did not actually quicken at all.

Still lazy.

Wearing flip-flops.

……

Thinking back to what happened today...

Uncle suddenly discovered something...

Hey……

The uncle touched his chin.

Why are all the things today related to children...

……

The niece of his elementary school classmate whom he hadn't seen for many years was experiencing the same misfortune as he did during that special period in elementary school...
……

A kid he didn't know came over and told him... he saw an old man with green hair...

……

He also met that special grandfather when he was a child...

……

Are they all children?

The uncle grinned.

Having said that...

It's more like a fairy tale.

Although the old man's appearance doesn't quite fit in with a fairy tale.

Not affable enough.

Not ethereal enough.

……

Maybe the old man with green hair is the villain?
And the bad luck he and his classmate's niece encountered didn't seem like a beautiful and dreamy fairy tale...

.....
Could it be that…
Is it a dark fairy tale?
……

The uncle smiled.

Who says dark fairy tales are not fairy tales?
Haven’t you heard that there is also the word fairy tale?
