"Aren’t you going to say thank you?"
The child was very sensible, nodding repeatedly before saying.
"Thank you, Uncle Liu."
Seeing that he had indeed recovered quite a bit, and his spirits had improved a lot, Liu Zheng was truly very happy.
He lifted his hand and gently ruffled the child’s hair, then he tenderly spoke.
"Since you’re much better now, that’s good, I was afraid there might be so complications."
"However, I do have so questions I’d like to ask, I hope it won’t disturb you."
Upon hearing this, the woman in front of him didn’t hesitate at all and imdiately responded.
"Of course it’s no trouble, please co in."
She quickly opened the door and went in with the child.
After they had entered, she thoughtfully poured Liu Zheng so hot water.
Then she ca over to him and asked.
"What is it, Doctor Liu, what did you want to ask?"
"It’s like this, because you said the child might have been frightened by sothing he saw, I want to know if he can still rember the scene from before?"
After hearing this, the child’s face suddenly beca very unsightly.
And the woman’s gaze imdiately focused on the child.
"How about it, do you rember?"
The child nodded with difficulty.
"I... I rember..."
Then he stuttered out these few words.
Seeing him like this, it must have been that the scene at the ti was sothing he found difficult to forget.
It must have been truly terrifying.
"Uncle is also curious because everyone around here has been scared by such an incident. If you can provide any information, it would be like helping everyone out."
The child took a deep breath after hearing this.
Then he mustered the courage to speak.
"I initially wanted to go to the bathroom, but unexpectedly, I saw an old man outside the door continuously walking forward at a very slow pace. When I looked carefully, I recognized it was the old gentleman who had died that day. I was instantly petrified, but the old gentleman seed not to notice and continued walking on his own."
After hearing this.
Liu Zheng felt very surprised as well.
But he quickly regained his composure.
Because from the beginning, this was what he had suspected.
He also thought the child must have seen sothing unclean, otherwise the child couldn’t have been affected to such an extent.
In the face of such an incident, he truly felt very helpless.
But if it really was that old gentleman, how had he managed it? Hadn’t he been cremated?
Rising from the dead was impossible.
If it was said that he rose from the dead before cremation, that might make a bit more sense.
But the man had been cremated; how could he rise from the dead?
All of this was simply too incredible to believe.
The woman next to him also widened her eyes in disbelief at what she heard.
She, too, was extrely astonished.
Because she had never asked her son such a question.
Since her son got better, she hadn’t paid much attention to these things.
She didn’t want her son to recall those unpleasant events.
Unexpectedly, she heard such a conversation at this mont.
She imdiately took her son’s hand.
Speaking with so concern, she said,
"Is it true? Did you really see it?"
How could the child in front of her possibly lie?
He also nodded firmly, then opened his mouth and said,
"Yes, I tried hard not to think about it after I saw it, but recently, I found that several classmates of ours had the sa experience—they seed to have seen sothing during those days."
"We don’t know what exactly is going on, but whenever we’re free, we’ve been discussing it."
Originally, he was indeed very scared from the very beginning.
Facing such a situation, he didn’t know what to do at all.
But later, when he shared his experience with his friends, he found that so of them seed to have had similar experiences.
So, he gradually stopped feeling afraid and started discussing it with his friends, trying to figure out what it was all about.
Hearing this, Liu Zheng finally had a rough understanding of the situation.
If what he was saying was true, then perhaps he could call all those friends over and ask them properly.
If there were any related clues, they might be able to unravel the mystery much quicker.
The reason Liu Zheng cared so much about this matter was another very important factor.
That was because he felt that the virus carried by the old man was quite strange.
Moreover, it had co from an inexplicably distant place.
What was his purpose? Why would he go to such lengths?
Was soone deliberately instructing him to do this?
All of these questions filled his mind with great doubts.
So at this mont, he indeed wanted to investigate thoroughly.
"Thank you for telling all this. It’s truly helpful for your uncle, but I have another request."
After hearing this,
The child blinked and said,
"What is it, Uncle Liu? Just ask directly, and I’ll definitely tell you everything I know."
Then Liu Zheng spoke,
"If it’s possible, could you call those friends who discussed it with you at the ti? I also want to understand exactly what they saw."
He thought it was sothing serious, but it turned out to be just this—a matter that seed not too serious for the child.
So at that mont, he nodded without hesitation and agreed.
"Okay, of course, no problem. I will talk to them during class this afternoon and ask them to co directly to my house after school."
Seeing the child agree without a second thought, Liu Zheng’s heart was naturally very pleased.
Initially, he had been worried that so unexpected situations might arise.
But now it seed that these were just his own unnecessary concerns.
"Good, then your uncle thanks you very much. I’ll just find a restaurant later. There’s no need to go to your house; co directly to the restaurant. It will be a good chance to treat you all to a al."
As soon as he finished speaking, the child’s mother imdiately began to speak.
