    Trevor would show up three or four times a week, always chatty but kind of dim, with a knack for


    uttering the most mundane things. Every now and then, in the middle of conversation, he''d casually


    mention that if his sister were the same age, she’d probably be just as cute.


    Then, when his sister fell ill, he vanished for two whole months. Her dad took her to visit, and she met


    his sister, Jaylene. But she didn''t find her cute at all; she seemed rather silly, nothing like him.


    As they were leaving, he tousled her hair and teased her, "You little heartbreaker. You call the doctor


    ''brother,'' but I''ve known you for almost a year. Why don''t you call me ''brother''?’


    She replied, "Because you''re silly."


    Trevor was taken aback, as if he''d just heard something monumental.


    Sonia didn''t see what was wrong with what she''d said. He was indeed a bit silly; it had been six


    months, and he still hadn''t passed his pilot''s license test. She wasn''t even sure what he''d been


    learning.


    But thisment really got to Trevor. He got serious and said, "If I can prove I''m smarter than you, will


    you start calling me ''brother''?''


    Sonia nodded, thinking, how could he possibly be smarter than her? She could recite backward


    everything her dad had taught her; he hadn''t even memorized it yet.


    Trevor said, "Then I''ll ask you a question. If you can answer it, I''ll admit you''re smarter than me. If you


    can''t, you''ll call me ''brother'' from now on."


    Sonia agreed.


    Trevor asked, "How much hair do I have?”


    Sonia was rendered speechless.


    "Can''t answer?" Trevor teased.


    Sonia blushed, hesitated, then asked, "How much hair do you have?"


    Trevor raised his eyebrows, "Just one head of hair."


    Sonia was struck speechless once more.


    Seeing the little girl blush from his teasing, Trevor took pity on her. "This question might be a bit too


    tough. Let me ask you an easier one. If you can answer it, I''ll admit you''re smarter than me."


    Sonia regained her confidence and listened attentively.


    Trevor said, "What is the total amount of hair in the world?"


    Sonia''s confidence instantly faltered. She looked at Trevor, lips moving silently for a moment, unable to


    say anything.


    "Can''t figure it out? It''s so simple," Trevor said with a grin, teasing her.


    Sonia bit her lip, feeling a bit annoyed. "So what''s the answer?"


    Trevor smiled and said slowly, "It''s zero."


    Sonia was even more confused, ’How can it be zero?"


    Trevor pinched her braid, his eyes narrowing, and casually said, "Because some people are bald,


    kiddo."


    Sonia was even more speechless at this point.


    Steughed the whole time. She hadn''t expected it to be so amusing.


    At first, Sonia remained impassive. But after Steughed for a few minutes, Sonia suddenly felt that


    Ste didn''t seem very smart either.


    Ste wasughing even louder now, making Sonia''s ears burn.


    Ste said, "If I ask you a question and you can''t answer it, will you call me'' sister'' too?"


    Sonia said, "No."


    "Why?"


    Sonia didn''t answer. The elevator had reached the ground floor, and Ste didn''t ask again.


    The police checked the surveince footage, which was intact. But by chance, the spot where the item


    was dropped was a blind spot. Many people wereing and going there, and it couldn''t be


    determined who had broken it.


    The police suggested extracting fingerprints from the oil bottle andparing them to those of the


    people who had been there today. Before the police could finish, someone in the crowd suddenly spoke


    up, "No need to check. I broke it."
