I picked up a ghost and took it home

The "Principal" Ye Fan called, wearing a pair of old-fashioned black-rimmed glasses, under the thick lenses, is a pair of slightly cloudy eyes; his hair is gray, messy by the winter wind, like weeds Heaped on top of his head; wearing an old-fashioned jacket and cotton-padded jacket that looked like 20 years ago, gray trousers, old leather shoes, and a broken briefcase with frayed edges in his hand.

Ye Fan felt that in the past 20 years, except for the graying of hair, the dean has basically not changed. He is still a small boss of a township enterprise, but time has changed and most of the township enterprises have closed down.At this moment, the Dean's eyes were red with exhaustion, and he seemed to be running around for something again.

"You... If you have any difficulties, you can tell me, and I will come and find a solution together." Ye Fan said.

The dean snorted, and looked at Li Xuan who was sitting by the bed with a gloomy expression, "Who is that?"

"Me, my friend." Although he has grown up and is full of respect for the dean in his heart, Ye Fan still has a little fear of the dean. After all, in this world surrounded by low walls, the dean is The boss here is the authority and everyone's umbrella.So in Ye Fan's heart, he was both worshiped and feared.

"The children are in the playroom, so you go too." The dean said directly without asking further questions.

"Okay." Ye Fan hurried back, pulled Li Xuan up from the bed, and the two walked out of Feng Ping's dormitory together, and closed the door.The dean saw them banging the door, and then turned and went to his own office.

"...Dean, it's a little strange." Ye Fan watched the door of the dean's room close, and then he said to himself, "Although I haven't talked much all the time, today I seem to be very serious."

Li Xuan raised his eyebrows and remained silent.

The two stood outside the game room, listening to the noise coming from inside, they didn't rush in.Ye Fan asked with difficulty, "What does 'heavy ghost spirit' mean?"

Li Xuan didn't speak, and looked behind him.

Ye Fan followed Li Xuan to look back, and was terrified by the man standing behind him.

[Someone crossed his legs and complained: Ye Fannijiang, you are so excited today~ Can you calm down and take a look at our house... Xuanxuan!

A certain author interjected: Upstairs is Lord Ritian, the appraisal has been completed.

One day, Tianjun became restless: Wucao, who broke my vest, I am a man standing at the top of the world, and I want to save face! ]

Feng Ping glanced at the hands held together by Ye Fan and Li Xuan, scratched his head and smiled awkwardly, "Did I bother you... I was going to the dormitory to call you over, but I didn't expect you to come out... That you... are you?" Go in or wait a little longer?"

Seeing that it was his childhood playmate, Ye Fan's tense spirit relaxed. He let go of Li Xuan's hand a little uncomfortably, and complained, "Why do you make no sound when you walk? You scared me."

"Sorry, I scared you." Feng Ping smiled.

"Hahaha, why are you apologizing, let's go in." Ye Fan also laughed, and sure enough, Feng Ping hadn't changed at all, he was still as gentle and cheerful as before.

The door of the game room was pushed open, and the voices of the children rushed over.

This "Little Gem Orphanage" currently has 38 children, [-] of them are disabled children who were abandoned by their parents at birth; was thrown in an orphanage.Among the [-] children who have reached the age of compulsory education, they have gone to school and have not come back from school; the other children who are still young are usually taught by Feng Ping, and most of the time they play by themselves, or Help care for children with problems.

The game room is about the size of an ordinary middle school classroom. Two aunts are taking care of children with problems, and the remaining dozen or so children are left unattended and free.The atmosphere is both lively and deserted. Some children are very crazy, and some children huddle in the corner and play with toys by themselves.And children with physical problems, those with mental retardation, mostly sit on small chairs with mouth watering, while those with disabilities just silently look at the people around them.

As soon as a few children saw Feng Ping, they rushed over laughing and wanting to hug him.Feng Ping hugged them one by one with a smile, and introduced Ye Fan and Li Xuan to them. They didn't come up to say hello, but just shrank behind Feng Ping, looked up at Ye Fan and Li Xuan timidly.

... Even Li Xuan was shocked by this scene.He suddenly understood why Ye Fan was silent on the way here - this place, even if it doesn't have a ghostly aura, is by no means a good place.

...Ye Fan, did you grow up here?

A small hand suddenly tugged at the corner of Li Xuan's clothes.

Li Xuan looked down and saw that he was a thick-headed little boy, about six or seven years old, with two long snot noses. He looked up at Li Xuan and said inarticulately, "Sugar, sugar..."

...The snot was like this, but the nose was still quite clear, Li Xuan sighed, he squatted down, and took out all the candies and chocolates that Ye Fan bought for him from his pocket.The children, who were staring at it covetously, moved when they heard the sweetness, and surrounded and snatched it coquettishly.

Seeing that Li Xuan didn't intend to lose his temper, Ye Fan walked aside with Feng Ping to help his aunt feed the other children.It's almost time for dinner. There are many children and few aunts. It takes a lot of work to feed them one by one, so the feeding starts early.

The aunts were very happy to see Ye Fan, "Xiao Fan, how are you doing this year? Have you got a girlfriend?"

Ye Fan buried his head in feeding, and smiled vaguely, "No."

"It's almost time to find a wife, hurry up and get married!" The aunt looked at Feng Ping again, "Xiao Pingzi is also about to marry a wife, and think about the future. Although we are very happy that you stayed to help, but ah, people should have Your own home, so that life is complete."

"Yes." Feng Ping smiled kindly.

The aunts chatted with Ye Fan again, then moved to the side to feed the other children, only Ye Fan and Feng Ping were left.Ye Fan asked, "How do you plan to stay here for the rest of your life like the dean?"

As soon as Feng Ping stopped feeding, the child immediately burst into tears. He quickly fed the food into the child's mouth, and the child stopped crying.He said softly, "In the past two years, the orphanage has been very bad. Funds have been allocated and deducted layer by layer. When it reaches us, there are not many. There are still children who need to take medicine, be hospitalized, and still have children to go to school. It's not a small expense...the dean doesn't have the money to hire more staff, if I leave too, what will the children do?"

Ye Fan was silent.He didn't have much contact with the other children who grew up with him, except Feng Ping, and it is said that they are not doing well. Hearing from Feng Ping, there are also those who injured people and went to jail. Everyone can't take care of themselves, let alone come back Nurturing the orphanage, even, there are many people who hate this place.

Feng Ping suddenly asked, "What about you? Didn't you say that you have a special constitution and cannot make friends?"

Ye Fan glanced at Li Xuan, who was arguing with the children and looked like a child, his eyes warmed up, "I can't make friends, but he is special."

Feng Ping's eyes flashed, and he asked with a smile, "The two of you...isn't an ordinary relationship?"

Although he didn't want to make a fuss, Ye Fan didn't mean to hide it from Feng Ping, "He and I will be together for the rest of our lives."

"Really?" Feng Ping smiled and didn't ask again.

In winter, it gets dark very early, and the sky outside the window has already darkened in a blink of an eye.

The two aunts who were half-feeding at the side came over in a panic, and said in embarrassment, "Xiaopingzi, we are going home—"

Feng Ping probably got used to it, and said with a smile, "Auntie, go back, be careful on the road, and leave the rest to me. Besides, there is Xiao Fan here today."

The two aunts looked at Feng Ping gratefully, then at Ye Fan hesitantly, but they left in a hurry without saying anything.The child who didn't eat enough next to him burst into tears.

It was only after five o'clock, and Ye Fan couldn't help asking, "The off-duty time is 05:30, right? Besides, there wasn't an aunt who stayed here overnight to help take care of the children. Why didn't I see it today?"

After feeding the child at hand, Feng Ping got up and walked towards the crying child, and said lightly, "Now after dark, everyone doesn't like to stay here anymore, the aunt who stayed overnight has resigned."

Ye Fan's scalp felt inexplicably numb, and after feeding the child at hand, he hurriedly followed, "Why?"

Feng Ping put away his smile and looked up at Ye Fan, "Some aunt said this place is haunted."

"Haunted, haunted?" Ye Fan remembered Li Xuan's words - there is a lot of ghosts here, you have been beaten by ghosts.

Feng Ping laughed again, "I forgot, you don't believe in ghosts in the world."

Ye Fan wanted to explain, but it was a long story, so he could only simply say, "...there are ghosts in the world, I believe it now, but what's going on here? It's normal for me to come here during the Spring Festival. "

Feng Ping was surprised, "Do you believe that there are ghosts in the world?" He calmly glanced at Li Xuan who was playing with the children, silently looked away, and continued feeding, "It is said that he heard the cry of the children in the middle of the night, but got up By the looks of it, our kids are sleeping soundly."

"Child, the cry of the child?" Ye Fan suddenly felt the chill on his shoulders again, thinking of the afternoon when someone seemed to blow cold wind on his shoulders and called him "Daddy".

"If you are afraid, take your friend back." Feng Ping said flatly.

"No, not afraid." Ye Fan emphasized, but it would be false to say that he was not afraid at all. He frowned, "Why didn't you tell me earlier when this happened, and it must be resolved as soon as possible."

"I thought you wouldn't believe it."

Thinking that he was such a firm and stubborn atheist, Ye Fan had nothing to say, he sighed, and asked earnestly, "Have you seen it?"

"Ghost?" Feng Ping asked.

"Well, whether it's a ghost or a supernatural event, where exactly is it, and what clues are there?" Ye Fan said.

"I told you when I was a child that I have the ability to see ghosts, but you don't believe me." Feng Ping said, "But in the past year, in the orphanage, I haven't seen any other special ghosts, nor have I seen any supernatural beings. event."

"...do you have the ability to 'see ghosts'?" Ye Fan recalled carefully, did Feng Ping ever say he had the ability to see ghosts?He can't remember, he seems to have automatically blocked all the information related to "ghosts" when he was a child.

Feng Ping pointed at Li Xuan with a rice spoon, and said flatly, "That boyfriend of yours is a ghost."

"...Did you see it?!" Ye Fan was surprised. There are many people who can see Li Xuan recently, but Feng Ping is the first one who can see that Li Xuan is a ghost.

Feng Ping said, "Since you know that he is a ghost, I don't have anything to worry about. I thought you didn't know, and you were deceived by him... Aren't there many 'ghosts' of that kind? They suck people's energy. "

"Suck people's energy or something... Li Xuan is not like that, he is a special good ghost." Ye Fan blushed slightly to defend, but he suddenly thought of something, "You said you can see ghosts, but recently Haven't seen any special ghosts or supernatural events in the orphanage for a year? Is it true?"

"Since the aunt on the night shift resigned, I have slept in the children's dormitory every night, and I have not heard any crying that should not have occurred."

"This is strange." Ye Fan thought, Li Xuan said that there are ghosts here, so there must be ghosts, not to mention that he also felt the eerie chill in the afternoon, so he asked, "What about your dormitory? You Did anything strange happen while you were there?"

"...Dormitory?" Feng Ping seemed to think for a while before saying, "I heard that you are still working as a policeman. Is this an occupational disease?"

"The police or something, I'm just an outsider, and I'm occasionally pulled over to participate in the case." Ye Fan was a little embarrassed, what a sacred profession the police is, he is just a half-hearted, and he said, "Since you sleep in the children's dormitory at night , then I will stay tonight and sleep in your dormitory, is that okay?"

Feng Ping hesitated, "Yes, yes, but do you really want to check?"

"I think there must be something strange. I can't leave all these problems to you and the dean."

Feng Ping laughed, "Xiao Fan, you have changed a lot."

"Is there?" Ye Fan was taken aback.

Feng Ping nodded, "You are braver than before. How do you say you were in the past? At best, you were a 'bad guy'. At worst, you were a shrinking turtle. You always ran away from things."

"Huh?" Ye Fan pointed at Feng Ping and said loudly, "I don't want to be called a 'bad good guy' by my deity."

The two looked at each other and laughed out loud.Ye Fan laughed and ran towards Li Xuan, "I still have to ask Li Xuan to see if he wants to stay."

Feng Ping sighed softly, "It turned out to be a 'strict wife'."

At this time, Li Xuan did not have the aloof demeanor of an "old ghost" and was covered with children all over his body. Even so, he still told stories to "Snot Bubble" in difficult situations, but how could Li Xuan know how to tell stories?He looked at the storybook and made it up by "looking at pictures and talking", but was ridiculed by "Snot Bubble", "Stupid, stupid, stupid!"

"Hmph!" Li Xuan threw the storybook aside angrily, "I won't tell it anymore."

Ye Fan looked at this scene dumbfounded, but as soon as he squatted down in front of Li Xuan, children ran up around him and laid on him in disorder. While protecting the children from falling, he took time to ask Li Xuan, "We stay here tonight, do you agree?"

"what ever."

"Sleeping in Fengping's dormitory, well, something strange might happen." Ye Fan didn't say the word "ghost" in front of the children.

Li Xuan was silent for a while and asked, "Are you going to check here?"

"Well. I want to do something for them."

Li Xuan was about to speak, but the "snot bubble" at the side saw that Li Xuan ignored him, and unhappily used his dirty little hands to pull Li Xuan's face...

"Hey, stop Tai Sui and break ground on your head!" Ye Fan yelled to stop him, but his face was grabbed by other children. He lost his balance and sat crookedly on the ground.

Li Xuan picked up "snot bubble" and rubbed it in his arms.Ye Fan exhaled and watched from the side with a smile.

Waiting for the children to finish their dinner noisily for a while, the children came back from school and helped to finish all the children's washing tasks, Ye Fan was dragged by several older children to chat about school affairs for a while, until At nine o'clock in the evening, he dragged his tired body to the door of Feng Ping's dormitory.

As soon as Ye Fan took the key to open the door, he felt that someone beside him suddenly looked over.

It was the dean, standing outside his office.

Ye Fan was about to run over to say hello, but the dean opened the door directly, entered his office, and knocked on the door.

"...Sure enough, it's strange." Ye Fan paused at the door of the dormitory, looked at Li Xuan again, and opened the door after confirming that Li Xuan was beside him.The cold snow light shines in through the window, making the room look not too dark.

Turn on the light, close the door, the two of them washed up briefly, and then lay down.

"It turns out that raising a child is so tiring, my brain is about to explode." Ye Fan hugged Li Xuan tightly, complaining softly.

"Yeah." Li Xuan was also tired, he wanted to push Ye Fan away, but failed, "You let go, it makes me uncomfortable to hug."

"Yeah, let's hold on tighter." Ye Fan said guiltily, her body trembling.

"What are you doing?" Li Xuan asked expressionlessly.

"Guo, sure enough, I'm still a little scared." Ye Fan trembled again.

"What are you afraid of?"

"Scared of ghosts."

"I'm a ghost too." Li Xuan reminded calmly.

"...???!" Ye Fan finally came to his senses, but he immediately hugged Li Xuan even tighter, "You are the boss ghost, I feel at ease with you protecting me."

Li Xuan sighed silently.He was quiet for a moment and asked, "How long have you been here?"

"About... ten years? After my aunt became pregnant, my uncle sent me here. I was less than nine years old at that time. I moved out after graduating from high school. I was almost 19 years old, and I have been living by myself since then." Ye Fan recalled ,"What's wrong?"

Li Xuan patted Ye Fan's head and said comfortingly, "Sleep, the ghost will not come out until you fall asleep."

"..." I can't sleep anymore, okay!
