After dinner, JoJo went to wash the dishes, while Lin Tian took Tangtang upstairs to take a bath.

Tangtang sat in the bathtub, playing with the bubbles and laughing loudly. Lin Tian sat beside her, watching her, his heart melting completely.

"Brother, where do you think people go when they die?" Tangtang suddenly asked.

Lin Tian was taken aback: "Why are you suddenly asking this?"

"Because the housekeeper said today that a lot of people have died in the village."

Tangtang tilted her head. "Where did they go? Are they like the other people in the yard?"

Lin Tian was silent for a moment before saying, "Yes, they went where they were supposed to go."

"Where should we go?"

"It's hell."

Tangtang blinked, not understanding what hell was.

But she didn't ask any more questions because the bubbles were too much fun. She scooped up a handful of bubbles and blew them at Lin Tian, ​​covering his face with them.

"Hahaha! Guoguo has turned into a white-bearded old man!"

Lin Tian laughed, reached out and wiped the foam off his face, splashed water all over her face, and Tangtang screamed and dodged away, then pounced on him again.

A barely perceptible hint of complexity flashed in Lin Tian's eyes. Tangtang knew everything. Three and a half years old was a child, but she wasn't stupid either.

She knew that the deaths of those people in the courtyard were definitely related to her, but she never asked about it.

possible……

She already knew that she was not her brother.

But I didn't dare to ask.

If you ask, you won't find a brother.

late at night.

After Tangtang fell asleep.

Lin Tian tucked her in, kissed her forehead, and left the room.

When JoJo saw him come out, she asked, "Is Tangtang asleep?"

"Going to sleep."

"You should go to bed early too. Tomorrow is the weekend, so you can sleep in a little longer in the morning."

"it is good."

Lin Tian nodded, walked to the window, and looked at the night outside.

JoJo put down her book, walked over, and stood beside him: "Xiao Tian, ​​is something on your mind?"

Lin Tian shook his head: "No."

You can't fool me.

JoJo looked at him.

Lin Tian turned his head and looked at her.

Moonlight streamed in through the window, illuminating her face; her eyes were as gentle as a pool of water.

"Sister, if one day you find out that I'm not what you think I am, will you...?"

"What if?"

"Will you be disappointed?"

JoJo paused for a moment, then smiled and reached out to pat his head: "Xiao Tian, ​​no matter who you are or what you've done, you'll always be my little brother, and that will never change."

Lin Tian looked into her eyes for a long time.

I was really stupid.

In fact, the excuse I gave when I first entered this house was full of flaws, and the skills I displayed made it impossible for the human traffickers to catch me.

Then, I laughed.

"Thank you, sister."

"Silly child."

JoJo pinched his cheek. "Go to sleep."

"it is good."

Lin Tian turned around and walked towards the stairs.

After taking a few steps, she stopped, turned back to look at JoJo, and said, "Goodnight, sister."

Goodnight, Xiaotian.

Lin Tian went upstairs, returned to his room, closed the door, walked to the window, and looked at the night outside.

This city remains prosperous.

The dead, the destroyed cities, the weeping families—none of that mattered to him.

Lin Tian closed his eyes and let his consciousness sink into the system space.

On the map, the lights in those ten cities on the Xiao Ri Zi map have been completely extinguished, but the radiation zone is still spreading.

"There are still more than forty cities to go. No rush, take it slow."

Exit the space, open your eyes, and lie down on the bed.

The next morning, when Lin Tian woke up, Tangtang was already sitting by his bedside.

"Brother, you're awake?"

"Um."

Lin Tian sat up, rubbed his eyes, and asked, "Why is Tangtang up so early?"

"Tangtang can't sleep."

She climbed onto the bed and snuggled into Lin Tian's arms. "Brother, where are we going to play today?"

"Where do you want to go?"

"Amusement park!"

Tangtang's eyes lit up. "Last time, my sister said she would take Tangtang to the amusement park, but we haven't gone yet."

"Okay, I'll take you today."

Lin Tian carried her out of bed. "Go wash your face and brush your teeth first, then have breakfast, and we'll set off after that."

"Yay!" Tangtang jumped down from his arms and ran barefoot to the bathroom.

Lin Tian smiled and followed behind her.

The playground is in Kowloon Tong, not far from La Salle Primary School.

JoJo drove them there, dropped them off at the door, and said she would pick them up in the afternoon.

Lin Tian took Tangtang's hand and walked into the amusement park.

Tangtang's eyes weren't enough to see everything; she looked around and wanted to play with everything.

"Hey, that one!" she pointed to the carousel, "Tangtang wants to ride that one!"

"Okay, sit there."

Lin Tian bought the tickets, then carried her onto the bench.

Tangtang rode on a white horse, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons as she smiled.

As the rocking horse spun, she screamed excitedly, gripping the reins with her little hands, her body rising and falling with the horse.

Lin Tian sat next to her, and seeing how happy she was, his heart melted.

Next came the bumper cars, Dumbo the Flying Elephant, the pirate ship... Tangtang played one after another, her little face flushed and her forehead covered in sweat.

Lin Tian followed her around, accompanying her in whatever she played.

He didn't care whether these games were childish or not; he just wanted to see her happy.

At noon, they ate at a fast food restaurant in the amusement park.

"Hey bro, what are we going to do this afternoon?"

"What else would you like to play?"

"A Ferris wheel!"

Tangtang pointed to the huge wheel outside the window, "Tangtang wants to ride that, to see Hong Kong from up there."

"Okay, sit there."

After dinner, they went to ride the Ferris wheel.

As the train slowly ascended, the scenery of Hong Kong gradually unfolded before our eyes.

Skyscrapers stand tall, cars and people bustle about, and a few cruise ships slowly sail by on the distant sea.

Tangtang was perched on the windowsill, her eyes sparkling.

"Brother, Hong Kong is so beautiful!"

"Yes." Lin Tian looked out the window, his gaze distant.

"Guoguo, do you think Mom and Dad can see us?"

Lin Tian paused for a moment, then laughed: "Yes. They're watching us from heaven."

"They must be very happy now."

Tangtang turned her head and looked at Lin Tian, ​​"Because Tangtang is very happy, and Guoguo is also very happy."

Lin Tian patted her head without saying anything.

When the carriage rises to its highest point, the entire Hong Kong skyline is laid out before you.

As the Ferris wheel slowly descended, the day's fun came to an end.

JoJo was waiting for them at the door. Tangtang rushed over, hugged her leg, and chattered about what she had played that day.

JoJo listened with a smile, occasionally patting her head.

Once in the car, Tangtang quickly fell asleep, her little face rosy and a smile on her lips.

Lin Tian held her in his arms, watching the street scene rushing past the window.

"Xiao Tian, ​​are you happy today?" JoJo asked.

"happy."

Lin Tian said, "Tangtang is very happy, and I am very happy too."

JoJo smiled and didn't say anything more.

The car stopped at the foot of Victoria Peak. JoJo went to park the car, while Lin Tian carried Tangtang inside first.

The housekeeper came up, took Tangtang from her, and carried her to bed.

Lin Tian changed his shoes, walked into the living room, and sat on the sofa.

He turned on the TV, and the news was reporting on the aftermath of the nuclear attack on his home.
