5 Can I call you Big Brother? (2/2)

At this moment, an anxious girl’s voice appeared in the distance.

“Leave its head for me!”

When the bald hero heard this, he scratched his head and sheathed his blade into his scabbard. Shi Xiaobai was dumbfounded as he looked at Sahadun, who was about to disappear from his field of vision, with an anxious heart.

Suddenly, an unforgettable scene for Shi Xiaobai appeared.

He saw that the calamity fiend, which had tortured him endlessly—the Sahadun that was so powerful that he had no way of resisting—had been sliced into numerous tiny pieces in an instant like a piece of tofu cut numerous times.

Shi Xiaobai was entirely unable to see what had happened, but at that instant, Sahadun fell apart, turning into a mess of minced meat.

At the same time, from the edge of his vision, a young girl slowly walked towards them.

As it was quite a distance away, Shi Xiaobai was unable to see the girl’s face clearly. She was dressed in a t-shirt and shorts. She had white skin and her impressive figure was telltale.

“So cool!” For Shi Xiaobai, this was a moving scene that he would never forget in his entire life.

However, he did not focus on her for long. Instead, he crawled up, while enduring the pain in his abdomen, and then walked towards the sandpit.

“We did it, Little Fatso.. We survived.. We..”

The walking Shi Xiaobai slowly came to a halt as he saw Little Fatso retreating backwards in fear. His gaze at him was filled with dread.

“I’ve hurt him.. It’s all because I am too weak.. If I had been stronger, I would have had a better way of protecting him.” The joy in Shi Xiaobai’s eyes slowly diminished.

“Sorry…” Shi Xiaobai said to Little Fatso. His voice was filled with regret as he deeply lowered his head.

“Big Brother..” Little Fatso spoke in a sudden, crisp voice.

Shi Xiaobai looked up. That rotund face that was a convoluted mess of tears, snot and sand looked like an old soccer ball under the sunset’s illumination, appearing light, yet heavy.

“Do…Heroes exist?” Little Fatso asked in a whisper.

“Yeah!” Shi Xiaobai nodded his head strongly.

“Big Brother, you aren’t lying to me?”

“Yeah!”

“Am I a member of…Xiaobai’s Hero Squad?

“Yea!”

“Mommy, Little Rat, Little Lei, all of them won’t die?”

“Yeah!”

“Big Brother, can I call you…Big Brother?”

“Yeah!”

“Wa…Wu Wu Wu~”

The tiny body leaped up from the sandpit and landed in a similarly small embrace that was just enough to accept him.

In the park at dusk, Little Fatso hugged Shi Xiaobai, bursting into tears.

Shi Xiaobai, who was fighting back his tears, could no longer hold them back. Two streams of tears poured out from his eyes.

“Wa~”

At this moment, this young, thirteen-year-old child let out a heart-wrenching cry.
