Lying on the bed, I didn't know what to do. I wanted to find Ah Qiang and tell him about my encounter, but thinking about Ah Qiang's fear of rats and his behavior in front of rats, I thought it was better to forget it. Who else can help me? It seems that I can only look for the old fraud. Although I always felt that he was emitting a strange aura, who else can I look for other than him? I can't go to the extent of asking Xiao Jun to punish me, right? If I did that, I really couldn't guarantee that I wouldn't be able to see the sun tomorrow, even though the sky hasn't cleared up recently.
The old huckster was sitting on his bed with his legs crossed as he read the newspaper. He looked very pleased with himself. He didn't even look at me when I walked in. He said lazily,"Xiao Mai is here."
" Mm," I replied. I suddenly didn't know what to say. I stood at the door of the ward and looked at the leisurely old charlatan.
"I know why you're looking for me." The old charlatan's eyelids were still drooping, looking unfathomable.
"Alright, that saves me the trouble of asking.”
"Yo, yo, this isn't the attitude of begging. I won't tell you if this is your attitude.”The old charlatan shook his head, one of his eyelids raised, and his expression was somewhat teasing.
"Then what do you want?" I didn't show any weakness.
"Aiya, my grandson is about the same age as you. If you can call me grandpa, I'll tell you what you want to know.”This time, he raised his head and winked at me.
"What? You want me to pretend to be your grandson?”
"If you're unwilling, then forget it." The old charlatan lowered his head and continued reading the newspaper in his hand, ignoring me.
"I'll call you then." I walked up to him and shouted with a wicked smile,"Grandpa Fraud, Grandpa Fraud."
"You bad boy, you're full of tricks!”The old charlatan pretended to be angry.
"Didn't you ask me to call you grandfather? I don't even know your name.”I looked innocent.
"Then you can't just call me grandpa!”
"That won't do. If I call you that, aren't you afraid that my grandfather's ghost will come and find trouble with you tonight?”I pursed my lips.
"Hey, alright. What do you want to know?”The old charlatan seemed to have given up on resisting me.
"How did you know what I saw last night?”I stopped laughing and asked seriously.
"The legend about the paper umbrella is true, but it didn't appear in this hospital at the beginning. It has been circulating around here. I'm from this area. I've met someone before, so I naturally know.”The old charlatan said seriously.
I looked into his eyes and asked suspiciously,""What does that have to do with me? Besides, why did he suddenly come to the hospital?”
"I don't know what it has to do with you. It might just be a coincidence. As for why he would appear in the hospital, it was not difficult to explain. Everyone nearby knew about this legend, so it was not a big deal for him to appear here.”The old charlatan didn't seem to mind.
"But I've never heard of such a thing in the hospital before!”I retorted.
"Just because you haven't heard of it doesn't mean it doesn't exist! You're lucky to have been saved."
"Sure," "Then how did you know that someone saved me?" Also, how did you know that I met the paper umbrella? Could it be that you were following me?”
"It was purely a coincidence. I just accidentally bumped into you holding a paper umbrella in your hand and was delirious.”
"Then who saved me? Don't tell me it's you!"
"I don't have the leisure to do that. I still want to live a few more years. I don't know who saved you. I only saw you holding a paper umbrella in your hand, but I didn't follow. If you were a big girl, I might have been an old hero and saved you last night.”The old huckster started to act mischievously again.
"Pah!"
