"Yes, what's the matter?" A crisp voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Here she is again, the girl who manipulated me into killing you. She's standing at the door of my bathroom..."

As Chen Lusi spoke, he leaned back and glanced at the bathroom. He found that the other person was still standing there, but he was no longer looking at the bathroom. Instead, he was looking at where Chen Lusi was standing.

The two looked at each other again.

Chen Lusi retracted his gaze and continued, "Can you help solve it? Take her away or something like that?"

"No."

Xia Panqiu replied straightforwardly.

"Can we make her disappear?" Chen Lusi asked again.

"No, he will disappear in the future, but not in the short term." Xia Panqiu replied again straightforwardly.

Chen Lusi: "..."

"Does she intend to hurt you?"

At this time, Xia Panqiu asked back.

"Not yet."

"Did she manipulate you into going out and killing someone?"

"Not yet."

"Did she do anything out of the ordinary?"

"Not yet... She's just watching."

After Xia Panqiu asked three questions in a row and received no answers, she concluded, "Then just leave it alone. Pretend she doesn't exist and do whatever you need to do. You're lucky, at least you're with a normal humanoid, in the form of a child, who doesn't put you in a position of pressure. Don't worry, ordinary people can't see her, so you can live peacefully."

"...Ms. Xia."

Chen Lusi took a deep breath and said expressionlessly, "I can share a house with others, but I still choose to live alone. Do you know why?"

"...Why?" Xia Panqiu asked politely.

"Because of freedom, because I can live completely at my own pace. As an unmarried, childless man who has been single for many years, you suddenly tell me that I have to live with a naughty child... I can't accept it."

Chen Lusi's face was wooden. "This is more painful than killing me. How is this different from sharing a house? The other party can't even help share the rent... Is there really no solution?"

"No."

Xia Panqiu said firmly, "And I've already said that you can pretend He doesn't exist, or even not consider Him a human. I don't think a shadow-like existence can affect your normal life or make you lose the 'freedom' you speak of. It may take some time to adjust, but I don't think it's a problem."

"Then do you think a normal adult male would walk out of the bathroom naked after taking a shower, knowing that there was a humanoid in the room?"

"..."

"That was part of freedom, and now that freedom is gone."

"..."

"You have nothing to say?"

"……really."

at last.

Xia Panqiu spoke, gritting her teeth and saying, "Okay, you can do this! Shadow! Just treat her as a shadow! That's it!"

Say it.

Hang up the phone directly.

"????"

Chen Lusi took the phone off his ear, his head full of question marks.

Do I want your permission?

I'm trying to reason with you! Seek a solution!

What are you talking about?

Chen Lusi looked at his phone and wanted to call back, but then he recalled the other party's firm attitude.

In the end, I gave up.

The solution should be no.

You can only hope that the other party disappears on their own.

And now he doesn't even know who the other party is... Wait two more days.

Drop your phone.

Chen Lusi gathered her still wet hair and was thinking about what to do next.

There was a knock on the door first.

The takeaway has arrived.

Chen Lusi walked to the door, opened it, took the takeaway, said thank you, and returned to the living room with the takeaway.

The house he rented was not big, with one bedroom, one bathroom and a balcony, which were connected to each other, similar to an apartment.

The so-called living room is actually also a bedroom.

Life would be cramped for two people, but more than enough for one.

As a single person, furniture is definitely not necessary.

Apart from the bed, the only table in the entire room is a long table placed near the balcony.

This is not only his dining table, but also a computer table and game table, serving all life scenarios that require a table.

And most of the time, he stayed there.

Move the keyboard handle to the side to make room for the takeaway.

Chen Lusi pulled out a chair and just sat down when he noticed the little girl at the bathroom door walking towards him quietly.

There was really no sound at all.

Maybe it's because I'm not wearing shoes?

Chen Lusi lowered his gaze to look at her snow-white bare feet under her white dress.

The little girl walked up to him, stood still, and said nothing.

It's just like a shadow.

Chen Lusi could only treat her as a shadow, unpacked the takeaway bag, took out the pork chop and scrambled egg rice he ordered, and prepared to eat.

But he still underestimated the pressure of having a loli standing next to him.

She stood motionless beside him, watching quietly. At first, she was looking at Chen Lusi, but after Chen Lusi opened the lid of the takeaway, she turned her gaze to the golden and crispy fried pork chops.

"..."

Chen Lusi was holding the chopsticks, but after noticing the other person's gaze, he couldn't put them down.

He sighed deeply and picked up a pork chop resignedly.

"Don't look at me, you're making me look like a child abuser... Can you either eat with me or go play somewhere else?"

Chen Lusi handed a pork chop to her mouth and spoke in a negotiating tone.

The little girl didn't move, nor did she show any intention of eating. She just looked up at him.

Chen Lusi held up the pork chop.

for a long time.

But the other party has not responded.

He couldn't bear it any longer, so he stuffed the pork chop into his mouth, lowered his head and started eating.

Forget it.

Just watch.

And next.

The little girl was watching the whole time.

Chapter 8: Sleeping Like a Baby (Thanks to hhhzz6's leader das)

Next.

Chen Lusi tried again and even asked the little girl's name several times.

But the other party really seemed unable to communicate.

He could only treat the other person as a shadow.

To a certain extent, the other person was really like a shadow, always following him, whether he was eating, going to the toilet, or sleeping.

Fortunately, although the other party would suddenly come up to him and look at him, as long as the door was closed, the other party would not force the door open and look at him when he went to the toilet.

Otherwise he would have to kneel down to the other party.

As for sleeping.

She would stand aside silently.

But as long as you sleep on your side, you can pretend that the other person doesn't exist.

...That's all he could do.

Twelve o'clock in the morning.

Chen Lusi turned sideways and looked at the wall. Although he could no longer see the other person, he could still feel the other person's gaze.

This made Chen Lusi, who already had sleep problems, even more unable to sleep.

He could only wake up his phone and watch the meaningless short videos over and over again.

Time passes slowly.

Soon it was one in the morning.

Chen Lusi turned over tiredly and was frightened.

The little girl was still standing by the bed.

"..."

Chen Lusi slowed down, turned his gaze away from the phone screen, looked at the loli standing quietly in the darkness, and said helplessly: "Don't you need to sleep?"

no respond.

"Then can you let me sleep?" Chen Lusi continued to ask.

He still had no hope.

But this time.

There really was a reaction.

The little girl in the white dress slowly raised her hand and placed it on Chen Lusi's forehead.

A cool touch came.

Chen Lusi opened his mouth and was about to speak.

The little girl muttered something silently.

moment.

Chen Lusi's consciousness collapsed and he fell into a deep sleep.

……

the next day.

Ten o'clock in the morning.
