Chapter 42

  No, and there's another strange sound.

  Boom——Bang Boom——

  Little fatty, who was walking down the stairs, stopped in his tracks and looked up with his little head. He perked up his ears and heard the sound of "thud-thud" echoing from upstairs.

  That sound rolled down step by step, getting closer and closer, like something was rolling quickly down the stairs. It had already reached the staircase on the floor above. Xiao Pang turned around curiously, staring up at the stairs. Leizi also stopped crying, looking up at the stairs.

  Then he smiled.

  That sound finally reached this floor.

  A red rubber ball appeared in front of him. In Lezi's front, it bounced back along the wall a few times and rolled down to the next floor.

  That's Arlene's leather ball! Xiaopang just threw it downstairs!

  But is this possible?

  Xiao Pang stared blankly, his eyes wide with wonder, as the red ball rolled away from him. The red ball continued to bounce at the corner of the stairs, but instead of rolling further away, it slowly came to a stop right in front of Xiao Pang, like a corpse waiting for dissection.

  At his age of six or seven, Xiaopang couldn't tell whether it was the ball that had just been thrown down or another one. Maybe even adults would naturally think it must be another ball, according to Newton's laws and Einstein's theories, how could a ball thrown downstairs roll back upstairs?

  In a science fiction plot, it's because the up and down spaces of this building are folded, up is down, down is up, and the hole at the bottom leads to the space above. So, the red rubber ball that was thrown down rolled down from above.

  The children didn't understand such complex reasoning, and they were curious about all the strange things. Xiaopang was stunned for several seconds before curiously running down to pick up the red ball and examining it carefully. Was this the ball he had just thrown away? He blinked his small eyes, thinking seriously about the answer like solving a math problem.

  The red ball emits a deep crimson hue in the faint light. Large clusters of melancholic clouds drift across the empty floor, like heavy elegies at a funeral.

  Lezi sat in the corridor, no longer crying. When his tears dried up, they took away a large amount of temperature from his cheeks. He sat there stupidly, not knowing what to do next. Just now, he saw that leather ball rolling down from above and turned his grief into laughter, but now the ball had fallen into Xiaopang's hands again.

  His chin and cheeks suddenly swept over a cold gust of wind. The air settled in the corridor fermented an aura that seemed to have a sulfurous smell, like silk threads that were intricate and delicate, yet evil, constantly swirling around him, domineeringly devouring the remaining warmth.

  Lao Zi discovered a pair of pale bare feet silently passing by his side.

  A thin figure wearing a yellow raincoat quickly walked into the stairwell.

  Xiao Pang was still deeply thinking about whether this skin ball was that skin ball, he was so absorbed in thought that he didn't notice the pair of pale feet standing behind him. The yellow raincoat dripped with water droplets, which fell to the ground and shattered into a coolness. A pair of pale small hands stretched out from the sleeve of the raincoat, slowly reaching towards Xiao Pang...
