Chapter 797: Why Aren’t You Good?

While Zhuang Long was eating, Xi Bo was quietly sizing up the house he lived in.

The walls of the house were very white. It was obvious that they had been repainted.

The wall paint could cover the traces of sin, but it could not soothe the trauma left by sin.

Xi Bo stared at the man who was eating. He thought of how dejected the child had been when the police took him away from the house many years ago and could not help but feel terrible.

After Zhuang Long finished his meal, he asked Heber to take the cutlery away. He sat alone in the house and hesitated for a long time. In the end, he did not have the courage to go to the basement.

That night, Zhuang Long slept early. The next morning, he woke up and checked the surveillance cameras. After confirming that ‘he’ did not wake up last night, Zhuang Long sighed, washed his face, and went to Xiao Li’s mansion next door for breakfast.

When he got home, he saw the morning sun and thought the scene was beautiful. He sat down on the lawn and stared at the sea in front of him.

He looked at the sea and suddenly looked at his side as if he had thought of something.

He did not see anything, but he seemed to see something.

It seemed that many years ago, he had also sat here and watched the sunrise with a little girl. Zhuang Long narrowed his eyes. Could the little girl whose voice and appearance had become blurry in the depths of his memory be Xiao Li?

“Chris…”

He called Xiao Li’s name softly, and his originally impetuous heart seemed to calm down a lot. He slowly stood up, muttered Clarice’s name, and walked into the house.

There was a demon in the darkness, and it was very scary. However, there was an angel waiting for him in the distance. He had to kill the demon in the darkness before he was qualified to hug his angel.

As he said Clarice’s name, Zhuang Long seemed to find hope. He was filled with courage.

He put on his headlamp again, entered the gym, and went deep into the basement.

Strands of faint light shot in from the huge pit on the floor of the gym. The basement, which had been hidden on the ground for too many years, looked a little dark and gloomy, inexplicably making one’s back turn cold. Zhuang Long was in no hurry to enter the secret room, so he first observed the scene outside.

He found an electric switch.

Zhuang Long thought that the electric lights underground might still work, so he turned on the electric switch. With a bang, the lights in the house lit up.

The darkness suddenly became bright. Zhuang Long even narrowed his eyes before daring to open them. Due to the light, Zhuang Long suddenly felt that this basement was not that scary anymore. He strengthened his courage and pushed open the right door.

Zhuang Long was still very nervous when he entered the secret room again.

He clenched his fists. He stood by the door and stared at the bed for a moment. Taking a deep breath, Zhuang Long raised his right foot and slowly walked towards the bed. He used all his strength to walk to the bed.

Zhuang Long stared at the bed. He could not remember anything, but his head started to hurt.

He looked up at the house and saw the handcuffs on the wall. Zhuang Long subconsciously felt that they were used to detain prisoners. The bed in front of him was Robert’s crime scene. Zhuang Long tried to sit down on the bed. Just as his buttocks touched the bed, Zhuang Long trembled.

It was as if a cold hand was touching his head. Zhuang Long looked up and could not see anyone. However, he could feel that someone had touched him like this before. He even said to him in a gentle voice, “Herbert, why are you so disobedient? If you’re disobedient, Dad will punish you.”

“Dad doesn’t like disobedient children.”

Zhuang Long was stunned. Who was talking in his mind?

Zhuang Long sat by the bed and wanted to escape again.

However, Xiao Li and Zhuang Qilin’s faces appeared in front of him. He gritted his teeth and resisted the urge to leave the basement. Zhuang Long clenched his fists. His nails were not sharp, but they were embedded in his flesh.

Realizing that his hand was bleeding, Zhuang Long looked down.

The blood landed on the dusty ground. The dust wrapped around the blood and turned into gray beads. Zhuang Long looked at this scene and his head suddenly hurt sharply. This pain felt like it was tearing his head apart.

Zhuang Long felt suffocated. He panted heavily, like a drowning person suddenly being rescued from the shore. Every breath was like the last breath of life.

After a few minutes, Zhuang Long’s condition improved.

He gritted his teeth and sat on the small bed. He called out softly, “Ah Li.” Xiao Li’s face was imprinted in his mind, making him very brave.

Zhuang Long personally handcuffed his feet and lay down. Then, he tied his waist with a belt. Finally, he tied his neck with a collar. Zhuang Long completely became a tied up lamb that had lost its freedom.

He did not know what would happen next. In order to prevent himself from escaping later, he picked up the handcuffs on his left hand with his right hand and roasted his left hand. After doing all this, Zhuang Long closed his eyes and lay quietly. His breathing became gentle.

He tried hard to think.

The basement was especially quiet. There was no movement at all.

Zhuang Long thought hard, wanting to remember something.

Gradually, his consciousness became blurry, as if he was about to fall asleep or in a dream. In a daze, Zhuang Long seemed to see someone walking in from outside the house. He was tall and wore a white coat.

He got closer, and Zhuang Long saw his face clearly.

It was Robert!

The handsome man bent down and touched Zhuang Long’s face with his hand. From afar, Zhuang Long could almost feel the man’s breath on his face. He was extremely afraid and his legs started to struggle. However, his ankles were shackled and he could not move at all.

Zhuang Long’s muscles were trembling.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he could not say a word.

The man stopped touching his face and smiled. His smile was abnormally beautiful and looked gentle and charming. However, Zhuang Long’s face turned pale from his smile.

“Herbert,” Robert called Zhuang Long’s name softly.

Zhuang Long could not speak. He could only stare at him.

Robert asked him, “Why weren’t you good?”

Zhuang Long could finally speak. He subconsciously said, “Daddy, I’m very obedient. I’m very obedient.”

Robert frowned slightly. He said, “You’re not obedient. If you were obedient, why would you call the police? Herbert, do you know your mistake?”

“Daddy…”

“Daddy, I was wrong! I was wrong! I won’t dare to call the police again. Daddy, I’ll be very obedient. I’ll do whatever you ask me to do.” The adult man lay on the bed and apologized to the empty room with his eyes filled with fear.
