Monster Tea Party

Chapter 6018 (Temporary)
The woman's body remained still, as if she wanted to say something.

She was held down by the man.

"and then?"

……

"Then?"

The child repeated blankly.

……

"Yes."

The man smiled slightly.

"You told your friend your secret."

Why did you two argue later?

"They were arguing in the back, right?"

It's unlikely that the child told their friend their secret after an argument in an attempt to "please" them...

……

"We didn't argue."

The child was taciturn.

……

"kindness."

The man didn't argue with the child about this. He simply asked, "So what happened?"

The child's behavior clearly indicated that something had happened between her and her friend...

……

The child pursed his lips.

“Nini…”

"I told them I saw a big leopard..."

"But my parents both said I didn't see it..."

“I said I was hallucinating.”

"let me……"

The child's voice lowered, "Don't tell anyone."

……

"...Nini also told us something she hadn't told us before."

The child said the sentence in one breath.

After a pause, the child continued, "She..."

"I have seen people who are hallucinating."

……

what?
The woman and the man were stunned.

what?
Did that girl with the ponytail ever see someone who was hallucinating?
really?
The woman and the man are still alive today...

The person you see is hallucinating...

They are their children.

They didn't know if Chen Jing was seeing hallucinations.

Or is it just an obsession with wanting to see hallucinations?

……

Before realizing their child was hallucinating, the woman and man always thought...

The idea of ​​hallucination is just a character trope in books and movies.

I never imagined that someone around me would be experiencing hallucinations.

And that person...

It will also be their child.

They had a surreal feeling of not wanting to face reality.

……

Now they've learned this from the child's mouth...

The child's friend had seen people hallucinating...

Their magical aura grew stronger.

……

The child had his head down.

Slowly and somewhat haltingly, she managed to retell the story that the girl with the ponytail had told them.

The girl with the ponytail was terrified by the uncle who was hallucinating.

He bumped into an old lady while running away.

He fell backward onto the ground.

……

The elderly woman called 120 for the girl with the ponytail and accompanied her to the hospital.

After learning why the girl with the ponytail bumped into her, she also told the girl that the uncle she saw was a mentally unstable person who would experience hallucinations.

……

The old lady advised the girl with the ponytail to avoid people who are hallucinating in the future.

Don't get too close.

Don't be curious.

Avoid any contact.

When normal people interact with abnormal people too much...

It can also become abnormal.

……

The girl with the ponytail remembered the old lady's words.

She was really scared by that uncle.

If it weren't for the old lady accompanying her, she would have been afraid for a long time by herself.

Even so, the lingering feeling of fear stayed with her for a long time.

……

Because of this experience, the girl with the ponytail has a strong aversion to people who experience hallucinations.

After learning that the child had experienced hallucinations...

The girl with the ponytail's uncontrollable attitude has changed somewhat.

She dislikes people who have hallucinations.

Or rather, she was afraid of people who were hallucinating.

However, when the person experiencing hallucinations turned out to be her friend...

Girls with ponytails are conflicted.

……

The short-haired girl didn't understand her reaction.

If she didn't have that memory...

Even girls with ponytails, like girls with short hair, would just say "oh" after hearing what Ya Ya said about hallucinations.

Actually, I don't really feel any reality about hallucinations. I don't really understand them either.

Therefore, I won't take Ya Ya's words too seriously.

Instead, they just listened and then forgot about it.

pity.

She has that memory.

Even though there was a period of time when she completely forgot that memory.

But because of Ya Ya, she remembered it again.

The lingering resentment in my heart cannot be resolved.

It's not about the buds.

Rather, it's about the fact that hallucinations occur.

……

The child started to feel aggrieved as he spoke.

Because she saw a large leopard...

Does Nini not like her anymore?

Why……

……

As the child struggled to narrate, the expressions on the child's parents' faces changed continuously.

They were genuinely quite surprised.

The child's friend had actually been frightened by someone who saw hallucinations...

but……

They understood the child.

Initially, they speculated about their child...

Perhaps I was hallucinating...

The woman also felt a sense of fear.

However, Chen Jing quickly diverted the woman's attention.

The thought of protecting the child from Chen Jing filled the woman's mind.

This left her no time to even think about the fact that her child was hallucinating.

……

"...I regret it."

The child looked at his parents with teary eyes.

"I should listen to my parents."

"We shouldn't tell anyone about the leopard."

“Nini…”

"I don't like people who hallucinate..."

The child doesn't know.

If she had known about Nini's past experience, she definitely wouldn't have told Nini that she had seen hallucinations.

Because that's what her parents told her, even though she still had doubts, the child accepted that she was hallucinating.

……

"...I should have known better than to say it..."

The child kept muttering to himself.

She felt aggrieved.

“Nini never told us about this before…”

The girl with the ponytail explained that she wanted to avoid this memory at all costs.

I don't want to share it with anyone at all.

I just want it to disappear from her memory as soon as possible.

……

The girl with the ponytail did it.

But forgetting is only temporary.

That day, she was reminded of this memory because of a secret her friend shared with her.

……

"Ya Ya."

A sigh escaped the woman's throat.

She gently patted the child's head.

Don't be too sad.

"Nini is your good friend."

You must trust your friends.

……

what?
The child looked somewhat bewildered.

What do you mean?
……

"I believe your friend's attitude towards you is just temporarily influenced by that past memory."

The woman winked at the child.

Give her some time.

"She'll see the light."

"You two are good friends."

"is not it?"

A good friend who will stay behind to keep their friend company while they wait for their parents to pick them up.

This kind of friendship...

The woman believed she wasn't that fragile.

……

"really?"

The child looked at his mother with a mixture of unease and anticipation.

Nini...

It won't always be like this, will it?

Nini...

Will it go back to how it was before?
……

"real."

The woman nodded.

"The uncle your friend saw who was hallucinating was a person with a serious illness."

“The buds are different.”

"Except for last time..."

"Ya Ya always listens to her parents and does a good job."

"I haven't had any more hallucinations."

"Isn't it?"
