The girl swallowed her gasp.
The girl's eyes widened.
She had seen this happen many times, but today, with someone else there, it felt different.
Someone else...
Ah!
The girl immediately looked at Xiao Xiao.
Her expression was animated.
"You—"
The girl hurriedly clamped her mouth shut.
When she spoke again, her voice was much lower.
"Look!"
"Mm."
Xiao Xiao nodded. "I saw it."
"The watermelon was eaten."
Xiao Xiao really had seen it...
The girl's intense emotions settled a little.
Xiao Xiao had seen it.
He had seen the little sprite eating the watermelon.
That was the strongest proof.
All the things she'd said just now couldn't compare to this scene for clarity and concision.
The room fell quiet.
The girl stared at the watermelon as it quickly disappeared.
The watermelon was gone.
The girl turned her head.
She saw Xiao Xiao putting a spoonful of watermelon into his mouth and paused.
She suddenly realized something...
Xiao Xiao...
This boy... was so calm.
No matter what she told him...
Even though it was something so unbelievable...
Had he shown any shock or surprise?
The girl tried to think back.
It seemed...
No?
The girl reached up and tapped her head.
She stared blankly at Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao set down his spoon.
The tiny stool, slightly cramped for someone his size, seemed to fit him perfectly.
"What's wrong?"
Xiao Xiao smiled.
"You..."
Confusion and disbelief showed on the girl's face. "...Why aren't you surprised at all?"
The boy's reaction had almost made her think that what she'd experienced wasn't anything special.
That it was just ordinary...
But it wasn't.
An invisible "watermelon thief" had eaten her watermelon.
Maybe it was a little sprite...
Maybe it was something else...
