Chapter 73 Grandma's Bedtime Story (5)
The players looked at the things on the table for a long time, and they seemed to be forced to stand on the edge of a cliff, facing a choice between life and death. And no matter how you look at this choice, it seems that the left is also dead and the right is also dead.
The atmosphere in the restaurant seemed to freeze for a while. The players looked at each other, but no one moved.
Seeing that the players did not move for a long time, "Grandma" narrowed her small eyes dangerously: "What's wrong? My children, are you picky eaters? Picky eaters are not what good children should do."
The players hesitated, their eyes wandering between grandma, coke, and mush, and it was difficult to choose.
"What about you? Good boy." She turned her head and looked closer to the player sitting on her right, her wide open mouth almost covering his head.
The player was stared at by her, couldn't help shaking all over, and subconsciously picked up a piece of coke specially made by "grandmother". He took a deep breath several times and couldn't convince himself to eat this thing.
Not only that, but under the gaze of "Grandma", he became more and more trembling, and even the entire desktop was trembling slightly.
Seeing this, "Grandma" let out a displeased snort.
The sound was not loud, but it was like the last straw that broke the camel's back. It was so frightening that the shaky coke in the player's hand rolled directly down, knocking on the table and making a crisp sound, and then the player was desperate. His eyes rolled all the way to the ground.
Finding that something was wrong, the player who was being targeted had a trembling voice: "Milk, milk, grandma... I, I, I will pick it up right away—"
Before he could finish speaking, the big mouth of "grandmother" hanging over his head suddenly took a bite!
"Crack-"
The sound of broken bones was especially evident in the silence of the restaurant at the moment.
In the next instant, the headless corpse collapsed from the seat, and the blood from the neck fracture splattered out, smearing the faces of the two players next to him, and splashing a lot on the table.
The players were shocked for a while, they didn't expect death to come so suddenly.
The female player who was splattered with blood hurriedly covered her mouth and suppressed her exclamation. She trembled and stared at "grandma" not far away with wide eyes in horror.
"Grandma" was chewing the head in her mouth, with a happy and contented expression on her face.
The hard bones were bitten in her mouth with a crisp sound, but they couldn't stop her sharp teeth. There was still blood on the corners of her mouth, like lipstick that was applied very casually.
With the sound of swallowing, "Grandma" smiled again, with blood and minced meat remaining between her teeth, and even white tofu-like residue: "Grandma will punish him for disobedient children."
Her dangerous gaze glanced between the players, and although she knew that she might not be able to see clearly, the players who were watching couldn't help but get nervous.
They stretched out their hands to - Mumu.
At least this looks more edible than coke.
But the next moment they regretted it.
What the hell! Why is the taste not only soft but also sticky to the teeth? Is there glue in it? It doesn't taste like food at all, maybe it's better to eat coke.
Combined with the bloody smell in the air and the corpses on the ground, it made people almost vomit.
Just when their faces changed, the voice of "grandma" sounded: "Good children can't waste food."
Players can only hold their necks and swallow the contents of their mouths, and their eyes are full of perceptions of the impermanence of life.
On the other side, Xiao Lan and Luo ate calmly without changing their faces, Wang Teddy's little curly hair was drooping, and they put Mumu into their mouths with a resigned expression, as if they had put their life and death aside.
Players have come to a consensus at the moment - this kind of meal cannot continue.
Gu Jiangke ate the gooey in his bowl with difficulty, and said to "grandmother", "grandmother...you have worked hard to cook."
"Grandma" had a loving smile on her face: "For my favorite child, what's the point of working so hard."
Gu Jiangke continued, trying to make her change her mind: "It's like this, grandma, we think that what we usually eat is too greasy, the vegetables you have here are just right for us, and we can eat vegetables in the future."
Players nodded, they like to eat vegetables, vegetables are good for health.
"You are really a group of caring and good children." "Grandma" said to him with a smile, "but why can't grandma not prepare food for you, why don't you come and accompany grandma to make dinner together."
Gu Jiangke's face stiffened. He never expected such a turning point. Under the gaze of "grandma", he could only nod his head: "Okay...Okay, grandma."
——
After dinner, it is free time for players.
Xiao Lan, Luo, and Wang Taidi walked together. Luo and Wang Taidi said that they had searched several rooms in the morning, but they didn't find the key.
Xiao Lan said that he found "grandma"'s hearing is very keen, and added: "When I was helping her cook before, I took the opportunity to search her body, but I couldn't find any trace of the key."
Wang Teddy's eyes were weird: "You look like a skilled pickpocket..."
"Did poverty make you have some unspeakable part-time jobs?" Luo also said that in order to keep a low profile, Luo would try to avoid calling Xiao Lan Mr., and no honorifics in front of players.
Xiao Lan waved his hand, as if he didn't need to mention the past again: "It's nothing, just know yourself and the enemy."
Thinking back then, he was a person who was surrounded by pickpockets all over the street. If he dared to steal him, he might be emptied out of everything on his body. If he tried to find him, but couldn't beat him, his status in the circle of pickpockets was the same as that of the God of Plague. almost. When Xiao Lan moved away from that area, the thieves and gangsters couldn't help but go out and have a big meal to celebrate.
I don't know what the street fighter's golden pot washes his mind to make up in Wang Teddy's mind. He looked at Xiao Lan with a little respect for the people of society.
The three of them continued to look for clues about the key in the house together. Where a grandmother with a big mouse would hide the key, it was really hard to guess. After searching several rooms, no clues could be found.
At dinner, what was on the table was dinner made by Gu Jiangke.
This guy obviously doesn't know how to cook either. The food looks bad, but at least it hasn't turned into charcoal, and he can see what the raw materials are. With Xiao Lan's background, he can already be regarded as a chef at the level of a small Chinese chef. art.
The players ate with tears in their eyes and felt very satisfied.
Their expressions made Gu Jiangke almost think he was a peerless chef, until he tried to take a bite before he was pulled back to reality.
However, the vegetables are cooked, not mushy, and can still taste the taste of vegetables... It's really touching...
——
After dinner, "grandma" drove the players back to the room, and said that a good boy should go to bed early and get up early, and also indicated that he would tell a story at night.
The three of Xiao Lan discussed it and decided to wait for "grandma" to finish telling the story before going out to find clues about the key.
They are going to sleep first, and they will be more refreshed when they are active at night.
There were rustling footsteps outside the door, as if many feet were hovering at their door, the gap between the footsteps was very short, and the thing that made the sound seemed to have not too long legs.
Outside the door is the voice of a child:
"Hee hee hee... there's someone inside..."
"Someone..."
"let me see……"
"Come and play together..."
The child's voice was soft and soft, overlapping one after another, calling to the people in the room: "Come on... Let's play together..."
Wang Teddy covered his head with the quilt and tried to sleep, but the sound kept going, and there was even a fine gnawing sound, and even the door was shaking slightly. You must know that their door is iron, what can bite it? !
Xiao Lan also realized that something was wrong, he sat up and looked in the direction of the door.
The candles in the corridor were dim, except for a faint shadow flickering by the crack of the door, as if hovering outside the door, and nothing else could be seen clearly.
At this time, the child's voice outside started again: "Come on... Come out..."
Xiao Lan said with a blank expression: "You guys, have you finished your homework? How many marks did you get in the exam? How much did you rank in the school? Are there any scholarships? Have you made up your mind about which university to go to in the future?"
A series of questions that hit the soul deeply penetrated into the hearts of the children outside the door, causing them to fall into silence.
Xiao Lan continued to add: "In today's society, the competition is very fierce. You should set your own goals in life from a young age. If you can't read, you'll have to show people the door in the future, um... just like now."
Children:"……"
Xiao Lan made persistent efforts: "Oh yes, generally only one is enough to see the gate, and there are a few of you who can't even see the gate."
"So, let's talk about your life plan, 800 words is enough."
Children:"……"
I suddenly feel that my shoulders are so heavy, is the world of adults so terrible?
There was silence outside the door. Wang Teddy looked at Xiao Lan as if he was looking at a devil. This person is really ruthless, and he has left a deep shadow on the children with the cruelty of society.
After the sound from outside did not sound again, Xiao Lan took the time to sleep for a while.
After a while, Luo gently shook Xiao Lan awake and whispered in his ear, "Sir, it's almost time."
Along with Luo's voice, the creaking sound of the iron door slowly opening was also remembered, and Xiao Lan quickly rubbed her face to wake herself up.
After confirming that the players were all in the room, "Grandma" began to tell the story again:
"There was a poor little girl who lost her most beloved thing. So she wandered the streets every day, looking for every passerby she met and asking 'Excuse me, have you seen my stuff?'. "
"Some passers-by are very indifferent. They will ignore the poor little girl's request and leave. At this time, the little girl will be very angry and take an important thing from them."
"The little girl waited and waited on the street and asked many, many people. Finally one day she met a kind gentleman who said he could help her find something, but unfortunately the little girl has forgotten what she was looking for."
"The gentleman was very gentle. He said he could help her think together. The little girl happily accepted each other's help."
"'I finally remembered! What I lost wasmy head,' said the little girl, but the kind gentleman who lent her the head to think could no longer help her find it."
"The little girl is sad again and continues to wander the streets day after day, waiting for a kind person who is willing to help her."
"Good night, my dear children, I wish you a good dream tonight."
