Chapter 81 Duoduo's Memories (Part )

Duoduo looked up and showed a big smile.

"Thank you, uncle." She said politely.

The young man with a fierce look on his face was slightly stunned by Duoduo's innocent smile.

"Where are you going?" the young man asked.

"I want to go find my brother." Duoduo tried hard to open her umbrella.

"Is your brother in Xicheng Primary School?" the young man asked.

"Wow, how did you know?" Duoduo was surprised.

"I guess. It's raining so hard. I'll take you there."

"No, I have an umbrella, and I know the way."

Duoduo had already opened the umbrella in her hand and hid under it.

"Goodbye uncle."

Duoduo held an umbrella, looked at the road, and walked towards Xicheng Primary School. She really knew the way.

But as they walked, Duoduo suddenly realized something was wrong and turned to look behind her.

But she saw two green trouser legs and a pair of army green work shoes. The rain wet the shoe uppers and trouser legs. Duoduo felt that he looked familiar, so she turned around, tilted the umbrella back, and tried to look up. It was indeed the uncle from before.

"Why are you following me?" Duoduo asked.

Thinking of the bad guys her parents talked about, she became a little alert.

"I'm not following you. I also have to go to Xicheng Primary School to pick someone up." said the young man.

"Who are you picking up?" The naive Duoduo immediately let down her guard.

"My...my brother."

"Oh, your brother and my brother are in the same school." Duoduo said with some surprise.

"Oh, yes, you have an older brother and I have a younger brother..." the young man said faintly.

At the end, he seemed to say something, but the voice was too soft and the rain was too loud, so Duoduo couldn't hear it clearly.

She didn't care anymore and walked towards the alley next to her with an umbrella. When she came out of the alley, she saw Xicheng Primary School where her brother went to school.

But as soon as she entered the alley, she felt someone hugged her from behind.

"I can walk by myself. You don't need to carry me."

At this time, Duoduo still naively thought that the other party wanted to carry her away.

But soon after, the little fool also felt something was wrong.

The other person didn't say anything, but strode forward, his shoes splashing large amounts of water.

The umbrella in Duoduo's hand almost fell to the ground.

"Put me down. I want to walk by myself. Put me down..."

Duoduo struggled, kicking her short legs, and the kaleidoscope in her hand fell to the ground.

Seeing that she was struggling violently, the young man tilted his head, gripped the umbrella handle, freed his hands, and grabbed Duoduo's neck.

"Don't scream, or I'll kill you."

The young man's face showed a fierce expression, and his features became even more ferocious, but Duoduo was facing the ground and couldn't see it.

Her neck was now being strangled, and she struggled, trying to pry the other person's hands apart, but she was too small, and her soft little hands were of no use at all.

The feeling of suffocation spread from her throat to her whole body, as if a blunt knife had pierced her body, and as if steel needles had pierced into her lungs. Soon her eyes widened, her face turned purple, her hands were too weak to struggle, and her whole body went limp.

This painful memory was also reflected back to Shen Siyuan, who was watching the memory, making him feel the same way.

Then everything went black before my eyes, and my memory was cut off from here. When I came to my senses again, I found myself in a dilapidated house.

Duoduo turned over and sat up, looking around in fear.

This is a private house. The red wooden windows have become mottled due to wind and rain, the window frames are covered with cobwebs, and there is not a single piece of intact glass.

The house was filled with miscellaneous items, newspapers, bricks, wood, a coal stove, and a tightly closed wooden door that was locked from the outside. Duoduo wanted to get up and look at the window, but she found that her whole body was limp and she had no strength at all. Her wet clothes and hair also made her feel very uncomfortable.

"Dad, Mom..." Duoduo called softly, sobbing.

But no one responded to her. She looked around fearfully and found that her umbrella was placed aside, but the "telescope" was nowhere to be seen.

She quickly crawled over and held the umbrella in her arms, as if this made her feel a little more at ease.

But soon, she was soaked, cold and painful, especially her throat, which was blue and purple. Even breathing was painful.

This is also why she didn't dare cry too loudly, because it hurt too much.

"Dad, Mom, Brother..."

She sobbed softly, her heart full of helplessness. She stretched out her little hand, touched her neck, and immediately pulled it back.

"Duoduo is in so much pain, Duoduo is so uncomfortable, I want to go home, wuwu..."

"Dodo, be obedient from now on and never run around again, woo woo..."

……

Maybe she was tired and sleepy from crying, Duoduo's consciousness started to become hazy. In addition, she was caught in the rain and was frightened, so she started to have a high fever. Her cheeks became flushed and her body subconsciously began to curl up.

But she held the umbrella tightly in her arms. Now only this umbrella seemed to give her some comfort.

After an unknown amount of time, Duoduo was awakened by the sound of the door opening.

She tried hard to open her eyes, but she felt sore all over, her limbs were limp, and she had no strength at all.

"Mom~" Duoduo whispered softly.

But no one answered, so she called out again, "Dad."

Still no one responded to her. Her mind was already confused at this time, and she seemed to have forgotten that she was kidnapped.

She felt someone approaching her and tried to open her eyes to see who it was.

When she opened her eyes and saw the ferocious face, she finally reacted.

"Uncle..." she called timidly.

This man was the uncle who kidnapped her this afternoon, and he was holding an axe for chopping wood.

Duoduo's originally fair face was now dirty and a little flushed, and her blue and white striped dress had become even more filthy, like a flower ravaged by a rainstorm.

But the man looked indifferent, without any trace of pity.

"You have an older brother, and I also have a younger brother." He squatted down and looked at Duoduo lying on the ground.

"He and my brother are in the same school." Duoduo recalled the conversation they had before.

The man chuckled but didn't explain.

Then he raised the axe in his hand and chopped directly at Duoduo's neck.

"Don't blame me. If you want to blame someone, blame your dad..."

Duoduo closed her eyes in fear, and then she felt a sharp pain in her neck, followed by a warm feeling spreading around.

Duoduo opened her eyes and wanted to see what was going on.

But the blood dyed her skirt red, flowed to the umbrella she was holding tightly in her arms, and then soaked the umbrella surface with blood, and the umbrella handle seemed to have turned bright red.

Duoduo was too young and was about to lose consciousness, so she didn't realize anything was wrong.

However, Shen Siyuan, who had been observing everything from a third-person perspective, discovered something unusual.

This oil-paper umbrella must have been waterproofed, otherwise it wouldn't be able to keep out the rain.

But if that's the case, why is Duoduo's blood absorbed by the umbrella? The same is true for the umbrella handle.

There's something wrong with this umbrella.

At this moment, the young man chopped down again with an axe, his bright and innocent eyes lost their luster, and his consciousness fell into complete darkness.
