Chapter 5288: Alcohol
“what!”

An idea suddenly occurred to Zhang Lei, “Do you think my niece’s misfortune is man-made?!”

That’s why he asked his niece if she had met any strange people recently?
……

“impossible.”

Zhang Lei shook his head firmly.

“If she really encounters a strange person, my niece will definitely tell her parents.”

“Especially in her current condition…”

“The ones who want to avoid bad luck the most are the children themselves.”

……

“Oh.”

The uncle nodded.

Ok.

Although the recent events are quite coincidental.

But it’s not that coincidental.

He almost thought…

Zhang Lei’s niece also saw the dwarf old man with green hair and green skin.

that……

Isn’t it just that he from many years ago overlaps with the little girl now…

It’s like going back in time.

….
“No matter what…”

Zhang Lei didn’t believe it at all. “It’s too much… it’s too exaggerated.”

The bad things that happened to his niece…

Who is so powerful that can do this?
And don’t let his niece find out.

Although his niece was young, she was not stupid.

……

“Hey!”

Zhang Lei’s heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly looked up at the uncle.

“Could it be that your bad luck during that period was man-made?!”

impossible……

Then why would Zhang Chen ask such a question with an obvious answer?

Isn’t it because of your own experience?
Zhang Lei held his breath unconsciously.

……

“No.”

The uncle blurted out.

Lying without changing one’s expression –
Well.

It’s not really a lie.

After all, besides him still having some doubts, his parents had already told him…

The old man with green hair and green skin was just his illusion.

So how could his answer be considered a lie?

……

“Oh.”

Zhang Lei nodded without any doubt.

“I thought you asked this question because of your own experience…”

Zhang Lei joked.

……

“I’m just asking casually.”

The uncle sneered.

“I didn’t think twice…”

……

Zhang Lei smiled.

Then he frowned.

and many more……

“I remembered something…”

“Although my niece didn’t meet any strange people…”

“But there was indeed a special incident.”

……

“what?”

The uncle asked immediately.

This will also prevent Zhang Lei from dwelling on the question he just asked.

……

Zhang Lei frowned slightly.

“The thing is like this…”

“About half a month ago…”

“Hey?”

Zhang Lei was stunned.

……

“what happened?”

The uncle asked at the right time.

……

“I suddenly realized…”

Zhang Lei stretched out his hand and rubbed his temple, “When my niece started to have bad luck…”

“It seems that it was after that…”

“…I wonder if this is a mistake?”

After all, he heard everything about his niece from his brother and sister-in-law…

……

“Maybe not……”

Zhang Lei murmured.

Otherwise, why did he discover this only now?
he-
No.

My brother and sister-in-law should have discovered it long ago.

“Maybe I remembered something wrong…”

He needs to check with his brother and sister-in-law again.

……

“never mind.”

Zhang Lei shook his head.
“We’ll talk about this later.”

That’s not what he wanted to say. …

Zhang Lei smiled at Zhang Chen.

“Maybe it’s just a coincidence?”

……

Zhang Lei quickly resumed the conversation.

“That weekend, my niece stayed at her grandparents’ house…”

“She went there on Friday, and her parents picked her up and took her home on Sunday.”

“On Saturday night, my niece’s grandparents called the child to dinner, but they walked around the house and couldn’t find the child.”

“The two old men were anxious.”

“Looking for children everywhere.”

“People in the village knew that a little girl was missing, so they helped to look for her.”

“Later, someone found the child sleeping on a rock beside a river deep in a nearby forest…”

Zhang Lei paused, then continued, “At first they thought the child was tired from playing and fell asleep…”

I didn’t realize how time passed by, and it was already time to go home for dinner…

“Until they got closer to the child, they smelled a strong odor of…alcohol.”

……

“Smells like alcohol?”

The uncle was a little surprised.

He was just wondering what was so special about this matter that made Zhang Lei mention it…

Now he knows.

“She was drinking?!”

and many more.

How old is Zhang Lei’s niece?
Isn’t he very young?
……

“Judging from the smell of alcohol on the child…”

Zhang Lei frowned slightly, “It should be.”

“But it’s strange…”

“Where did the kid get the wine?”

“There was no wine bottle or anything found next to the child…”

“The villagers tried to wake the child.”

“But the kid was too drunk.”

“Completely unconscious.”

“The villagers also checked the surrounding area carefully.”

“There’s nothing suspicious about it.”

“They took the child and sent him back to his grandparents’ home.”

……

“The child’s grandparents were also surprised when they smelled the strong smell of alcohol on the child.”

“My niece never drinks.”

“Not to mention that the child is young, the adults will not allow her to drink.”

“My brother once dipped a little bit of wine with chopsticks and gave it to the curious children to taste…”

“My niece disliked me.”

“I think the wine is very bitter.”

“taste not good.”

“After that, my niece was no longer curious about the taste of wine.”

“No more drinking.”

“How come one day I get so drunk…”

“He passed out drunk in the woods…”

……

“All the adults were curious about what was going on.”

“But the child was too drunk.”

“I can’t wake him up.”

“After carefully checking the child’s body and finding that the child was not injured in any way, the child’s grandparents let the child sleep.”

As for the children’s dinner, naturally there was no way to eat it.

……

“The child didn’t wake up until noon the next day.”

“If the child’s face wasn’t rosy and his breathing wasn’t steady, his grandparents would have wanted to send him to the hospital.”

……

“The child’s grandparents are very happy that the child has woken up…”

Just as they were about to ask something, they heard the baby’s stomach growling.

Also.

Plus, it’s already noon of the next day and the child hasn’t eaten for two meals.

The child’s grandparents swallowed all their doubts.

They brought a sumptuous meal.

No matter what the problem is, wait until the child is full.

……

The child is really hungry.

Eat quickly and anxiously.

This caused the two elderly people to keep reminding the child, “Eat slowly.”

“Don’t swallow it.”

“…No one is competing with you.”

“It’s all yours.”

……

The child finished two large bowls of rice.

The child touched his belly with a lazy look.

People feel a little sleepy after eating.

……

Grandma reached out and tapped the child’s head gently.

“I just woke up…”

“Why are you sleepy again?”

……

“I’m full.”

The child slumped in his chair.

He reached out and touched his bulging belly.
