One past seven.

The sound of my sister's short-heeled leather shoes echoed in the empty stairwell, stepping on the steps step by step, slowly approaching.

His heart was beating violently, his Adam's apple rolled and swallowed nervous saliva.Shen Fan sat quietly at the table, clasped his hands, and tried hard to suppress his emotions.

There was steaming hot food on the table, and when he raised his eyes, his eyes fell on his bedroom. There was darkness in the slightly opened door, and his secret was hidden inside.

"Brother!" The younger sister happily pushed open the door, with a pure smile on her plain face, "I'm back!"

"Huh? Huh." Nerves jumped slightly, and the next second was suppressed by Shen Fan, he turned his head and smiled, with the same expression as before, "Why are you back so late today? Wash your hands and eat."

"Yeah." The younger sister put down the small bag on her back, patted the white short skirt, and ran to the sink in a small jump, muttering, "Today, I originally came back at the same time as before, but I came back I met a strange person on the road, he knew my name and said that my brother was looking for me, and then I went to the place he said, but my brother was not there at all! Liar!"

"It made me run around in vain, weirdo!" My sister pursed her lips in dissatisfaction, shook her wet hands, and trotted to the table.

That person must be the one who called, his stalker, the first reaction after hearing something was wrong was to come to his house, help him move his sister away, and help him hide the body.

Compared to him who was flustered, that person was calm and felt very reliable.

The younger sister sat down opposite Shen Fan, knocked on the bowls and chopsticks, and suddenly raised her head, "Brother, where are Mom and Dad?"

The air froze in an instant, the fingers holding the chopsticks trembled slightly, Shen Fan raised his head, his sister rested her chin on one hand, and tilted her head, waiting for his answer, her fair face shrouded in light was opposite to the dark crack in the door behind her , pure, ignorant.

"I don't know, I didn't see it when I came back." Shen Fan lowered his head, ignoring the pair of eyes that were shining slightly under the light.

"It must be going out to play again, and you don't take me with you every time, you're stingy!" The younger sister bit the chopsticks angrily, and stuffed food into her mouth, her cheeks bulging.

Shen Fan remained silent, lowered his head and ate quietly. In the quiet small room, there was only the sound of two people's bowls and chopsticks colliding. For the first time, he found that there was no room where his parents were noisy, so quiet.

The younger sister seemed to be aware of this too, looked up at Shen Fan from time to time, hesitated to speak, lowered her head and ate silently.

Shen Fan seldom communicated with his family, usually he just ate in silence at mealtimes, listening to his mother's scolding, listening to his younger sister happily talking to his mother, and listening to his father pouring wine.Then all the voices suddenly disappeared today, and my sister is probably not used to it.

The guilt in his heart was surging, and Shen Fan knew very well that no matter how bad his parents were, he always protected his sister the best. The delicate flowers raised in the greenhouse, with such a pure smile, just thought that one day they would When she looked at her with fearful eyes, she would feel a sting in her heart.

"Brother." The younger sister waved her hand in front of distracted Shen Fan, tilted her head to look at him, and slightly raised a bright smile, "Is brother happy today?"

"What?" Shen Fan came back to his senses, caught off guard by the question.

"Usually when everyone eats together, my brother is always unhappy. Today, mom and dad are not here, will my brother be happier?" The younger sister reached out to hold Shen Fan's hand holding the chopsticks, and gently put her warm hand on the back of her hand, The fingertips that trembled more than once stopped.

The action of comforting him as before made Shen Fan feel soft inside, even if his parents were gone, his sister would still notice his uneasiness and comfort him.If it's for his gentle sister, it doesn't matter if he falls into hell, at least let her grow up gently, and when he grows up, he will leave when he is no longer needed.

"With Xiaoqin by my side, I'm very happy." He reached out and stroked his sister's hair, looking at her bright eyes and cute smile under the light, he unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth.

"Then I'm going to do my homework. My brother needs to go to bed early." The younger sister touched the top of her head shyly, picked up her schoolbag, turned around and ran to the room, the trotting white figure reassured Shen Fan.

After tidying up the dishes, Shen Fan also returned to his room. In the narrow space, he was very concerned about the existence of the wardrobe, but it was not the time to tidy up those things. His sister was next door, and there was a lot of noise climbing up the attic. Now is not the time.

Lying on the bed and covering my head with the quilt, I couldn't calm down and do my homework.The phone in his pocket vibrated again, and Shen Fan probably guessed who it was.

[Your sister doesn't seem to notice, don't worry for now. ]

That person said that in order not to leave evidence, every message he sent or Shen Fan replied to should be deleted.

Shen Fan deleted the text message, looked at the empty screen, probably heard the conversation between him and his sister through the monitor again, I don't know where he put the monitor.

[Thank you. ]

Press and hold to delete.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally sent three words. After waiting for a few seconds, there was no message from the screen. Shen Fan rubbed his hair and got up to do his homework.

The phone vibrated again, Shen Fan rummaged through his schoolbag, glanced back at the phone on the bed, and took out his homework while reaching for the phone.

[Needless to say thank you. ]

Press and hold to delete.

Shen Fan thought about it, thank him for what?Help him become a criminal, or help him lie to his sister.Probably thanks to him, when Shen Fan was most helpless, that person stretched out his redemptive hand to him.

The phone vibrated again, a text message from an unfamiliar number.

[No matter what, I will do it for you. ]

hold down,...

Fingers paused slightly, Shen Fan hesitated for a moment, he would do anything for him, ordinary people seemed to be just normal stalkers speaking, but for Shen Fan's situation, he was unexpectedly a little moved, rather happy.

There is such a person who cares, cares, and understands him. All actions are based on him. He doesn't care about other people's words and deeds. On the contrary, he cares about his every move.

Maybe this is not normal, but to Shen Fan, it is a bit special, at least before he met this person, no one has ever treated him so well in the past ten years.A person who has endured the cold all year round, one day, a stranger will force a piece of warmth on him, and it will be like this every day after that. He who has felt the warmth will be very dependent on this person.

In a daze, the book in his hand fell to the floor, making a loud noise in the quiet room, and the next second, it was the voice of the sister next door.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, the homework fell on the floor." Shen Fan put away the book in a panic, tapped his head thinking wildly, turned off the screen, and concentrated on writing homework.

"Then brother, finish your homework early and go to bed, it's not good for your health if it's too late." The younger sister's voice sounded from the other side of the wall.

"Well, you go to bed early, too."
