Dead silence and boundless darkness enveloped Li Muhan.
He was not hindered by any evil spirits or ghosts, but he could not hear a single sound from the outside world.
Just like that, he quickly rushed towards the top of the tower.
But with every level he climbed, Li Muhan felt his heartbeat speeding up.
When he finally climbed to the top of the tower, there was only a broken door in front of him.
When he saw this door, Li Muhan was stunned.
Because he is extremely familiar with this subject...
This is the door to the children's room in the orphanage where he spent his childhood.
...
Outside the tower, Chi Yuan silently stared at the top of the tower.
Her brows furrowed slightly, and Huang Zizai, who noticed this phenomenon, asked with some confusion.
"What's wrong?"
"Captain... I think something is wrong with this alien today. It doesn't seem to be trying to hide."
"Hehe, it can hide wherever it goes. We are here today to carry it to its lair. This kid is the first to take the lead. If he is gone, you should collect all the souls in this tower."
"No, he won't fail."
Chi Yuan crossed his hands on his chest as if praying.
"Don't you really like that kid? It's no use. Do you know who his mistress is?"
"It's just a little bat."
"Oh, you sound pretty good. You are worthy of being the descendant of the mythical beast Chongming Bird."
Huang Zizai laughed a few times and did not continue to be idle.
"Everyone, please be alert! Don't let any soul escape! Keep an eye on those on the periphery, don't let any accidents happen to the realm order, don't let any outside world witness what we did here today. "
The outskirts of the Tower Block at this time.
A looming barrier surrounded the entire area.
A girl was sitting on the hood of a car drinking coffee.
This person was none other than Lin Ze.
"Forest Bureau, are you sure you don't need us to notify the Zodiac Chief of your arrival?"
Several staff members from the Supernatural Management Department said to Lin Ze respectfully.
"Why inform him? Huang Zizai can handle these things well. I'm just here to observe your usual working status. It's very good. Keep up the hard work."
"Thank you to the Forestry Bureau for the affirmation."
Lin Ze sipped the coffee in the cup and looked at the top of the tower, still with that smile on his face that no one could see through.
"Today is your first test."
...
Li Muhan slowly opened the door, and his memory seemed to flood him like a tide at this moment.
Also coming were fear and anger.
"Li Muhan!!"
A strong woman holding a stick in her hand looked at Li Muhan standing at the door.
She was more than two meters tall, like a giant. After seeing her, Li Muhan's breathing became rapid.
"...Zhang, Teacher Zhang..."
"You sneaked out again? You would rather be a beggar than stay here, right?!"
The tall woman picked up Li Muhan, but Li Muhan didn't dare to resist at all. He could only shrink his body and let her drag him into a small dark room.
"I told you clearly!! Sponsors will come to inspect the orphanage today! How dare you sneak away from me?! Do you know how embarrassed I am today?!"
Snapped--
The stick hit Li Muhan's arm hard. He instantly felt that his right arm was completely numb and he couldn't even lift it.
"Yes, I'm sorry, Teacher Zhang, I, I'm hungry..."
His mouth began to speak uncontrollably, and the words he spoke were exactly the same as the scene in his memory.
"Are you hungry?! Okay, I'll make you hungry!! I'll make you hungry!"
The woman grabbed a mouse from under her feet and squeezed it to death.
"Aren't you hungry? Come on, eat!!!"
She grabbed Li Muhan's hair and stuffed the dead mouse into Li Muhan's mouth.
"I'm sorry!! I'm sorry!! I don't dare anymore!! I don't dare anymore!!"
Li Muhan's cries echoed in the room, and at this time, in the darkness, a girl was watching all this silently.
She had long black hair and was wearing a white dress. She was looking at Li Muhan with loving eyes.
Just when half of the dead rat's body was about to be stuffed into Li Muhan's mouth, she slowly walked to Li Muhan's side, squatted down, and gently hugged Li Muhan from behind.
"Be good... don't be afraid."
At this moment, the tall woman's body disappeared without a trace.
The surrounding scene slowly began to change, becoming brighter and warmer.
Li Muhan began to lie on the ground and retched. Although there was no dead mouse in his mouth, the feeling was so real that he almost really returned to the orphanage back then.
"......Who are you?"
He wiped the corners of his mouth and looked back at the black-haired woman.
"Child, are you in pain?"
The woman looked at Li Muhan worriedly, but Li Muhan stood up and took a step back warily.
"Did you let me see those things just now?"
Li Muhan asked.
The woman nodded slightly, then shook her head and said.
"That's your memory. I didn't let you see it. It was you who let me see it. Now I have dispelled those nightmares for you."
"Are you the alien who is entrenched on the top of the tower and restraining the souls of the dead?"
The woman stood up slowly and smiled gently at Li Muhan.
"I just dispersed their painful memories. I didn't detain anyone. They stayed here on their own initiative."
Then the woman slowly approached Li Muhan.
Gently raising her hand and stroking Li Muhan's face, a tear leaked out of her eyes, and Li Muhan found that he couldn't move a step.
"And you...your nightmares are so painful, kid, I can banish them for you, I can make everything okay...like this."
The woman's hand slowly touched Li Muhan's temple.
The next moment, the scene around Li Muhan changed again.
This time it was a cozy small room, almost the room in Li Muhan's childhood dreams.
He raised his hand and saw that his hands and feet had become as petite as a child's.
Dong dong dong——
At this time, there was a gentle knock on the door.
"Mu Han, are you awake?"
This voice was extremely familiar to Li Muhan, but also very strange, because the owner of this voice should not be so gentle.
snap——
The door was opened.
Sure enough, it was Teacher Zhang who entered the room, but she was completely different from what she remembered. She was beautiful, gentle and elegant, and had a loving smile on her face.
"Since you're awake, why don't you open the door for the teacher? Today is the day of prayer in the orphanage. Come on."
Li Muhan froze on the spot. He didn't know how this could happen. That Teacher Zhang... could be so gentle.
"poor child......"
Seeing that Li Muhan didn't respond, Teacher Zhang slowly knelt down and held Li Muhan's thin body in his arms.
"Did you dream about your parents again? My child... I'm sorry, I can't bring your parents back, but the teacher is your mother... I will always stay with you until you can be alone People face everything.”
