Now Jing Xi knew from the boy's words that the king always carried a weapon with him.

Little Grape was surprised and admired it. "This is great! It's exactly what I wanted!"

He pointed the toy gun at his targets around him and made the sound, "Bang!"

Seeing him satisfied, Jing Xi suggested, "So shall we play a simple game today as a rehearsal, and carry out an official performance tomorrow?"

"Sure!" Little Grape was more than ready.

"Then I'll play the bad guy and you be the policeman. Now I will go hiding and you will come to catch me. If you shoot me I will be dead. Got it?"
