(The previous chapter was blocked due to sensitivity. The summary is that Huanhuan told Cheng Ye a secret. This secret is too sensitive to be presented (I can’t write sorry). Cheng Ye now wants to help Huanhuan turn off the power switch to let her escape. The previous chapter may not be possible. Unblocked.)
In order not to attract other people's attention, Huanhuan left after speaking.
She walked a few steps and then looked back at Cheng Ye.
Cheng Ye looked calm.
He no longer looks at Huanhuan.
There is also surveillance in the cafeteria, so there is no need for more trouble.
Just like that.
It was like chatting between good friends for a while, and then returned to where they should be.
Huanhuan seemed to understand what Cheng Ye meant.
She no longer hesitated and strode outside.
There were gradually fewer people in the cafeteria.
There isn't much time left until lunch break is over.
Tang Huan was still sitting opposite and eating, but he changed from devouring it to chewing it slowly.
It's like I ate too much at once, and even though I'm full now, I'm still hungry.
"Aren't you full?" Seeing Tang Huan's strange behavior, Cheng Ye asked doubtfully.
Tang Huan had something stuffed in his mouth and his words were unclear: "Well... um... I'm so hungry..."
"...My stomach is full, but I'm still hungry..."
He continued to eat.
Cheng Ye frowned, what kind of strange statement is this?
After careful consideration, he asked, "Are you hungry?"
"Yeah, yeah!" Tang Huan raised his head, with tears in his small eyes: "I don't know why, but I feel like I haven't eaten in a long time. I'm so hungry."
"But you've already eaten a lot." Cheng Ye pointed to his plate.
He almost made enough food for two adults, and now he has basically finished it.
"I don't know either..." Tang Huan's cheeks bulged. He was already a bit chubby, so he looked even chubbier.
He continued to eat, and while eating, he said: "...just, I feel so hungry..."
"What did you eat yesterday?" Cheng Ye suddenly changed the topic and began to test.
Tang Huan stopped eating. He tilted his head in confusion, as if he was thinking seriously.
After a long time, he shook his head in confusion: "...I forgot, it seems...I can't remember what happened these days..."
"...I just remember that I used to beg for food on the street. I didn't have enough to eat or keep warm every day..."
"There was a big sister who said she could help me not worry about food and clothing, so I went with her..."
With that said, Tang Huan started eating crazily again.
"Hmm... delicious, delicious..."
"very hungry……"
Cheng Ye frowned.
How is this going.
He had obviously died once, but his memory still stayed at the time when he was admitted to the hospital for the first time.
It was the big sister who brought him back from the street.
This is a real memory after all, because it is so profound and firmly engraved in my mind.
Or...a memory forcibly instilled in the orphanage?
Suddenly, Cheng Ye felt cold all over, as if he was in an ice cave.
There was a bone-chilling chill from head to toe.
Neither he nor himself might have been admitted to the hospital a month ago.
They should have really died many times.
It's just that every time you die, the memory will be reset.
Until this moment, Cheng Ye had not realized what his biggest crisis was.
He never found the real fatal point in these commonplace things.
He continued to watch Tang Huan eat and sighed.
"Then why did you walk straight towards me?" Why didn't you choose someone else?
Tang Huan felt confused and pointed around.
Most of the people have left now, and the cafeteria looks empty.
"Just now... everything was full, but yours was empty."
"I..." Tang Huan hesitated: "Did I bother you?"
He remembered that there was a girl sitting next to Cheng Ye just now.
Cheng Ye shook his head: "No, no."
I'm just curious as to why you chose me again.
Could it be that the boys in this orphanage are all in pairs?
An even number can just be divided.
...That's not right either.
When grouped, it is indeed odd.
Cheng Ye shook his head, feeling that the clues were getting more confusing.
He sat with Tang Huan and waited for him to finish his meal.
After Tang Huan finished the last bite of the dish, he finally put down the bowl with satisfaction.
He looked at Cheng Ye: "...are you waiting for me?"
Cheng Ye smiled and said, "I see you have a good eye for me, so I'll take you with me."
Although I still have important things to do later, it is not a waste of time to see what the newly resurrected Tang Huan will do.
He has decided to help Huanhuan escape from the orphanage tonight.
There are deaths anyway, so it doesn’t matter if you die once.
So he decided to do something very dangerous this afternoon.
Take a trip to the office building.
Go and see what secrets are hidden there.
The first step is to identify the cameras in the entire orphanage and see if they can be avoided as much as possible.
It’s impossible not to be photographed at all.
But the presence of children in the camera is perfectly normal.
What Cheng Ye needs to do is to confirm the size of the camera range, and then appear normal when being photographed, so as to enter the office building.
So, chatting with Tang Huan is part of it.
Using Tang Huan is also part of it.
This is an intermediate copy.
It may be much harder than the primary copy, but it's impossible to survive.
If there is no way to enter the office building, then Cheng Ye can't find a second way to expand the plot.
There is a section in the office building that should be kept secret.
Therefore, he could only use Tang Huan again.
Tang Huan didn't know what was going to happen yet, but he had a smile on his face, as if he finally had a place where he could eat and wear warm clothes, and he had friends who accepted him. He felt satisfied.
Cheng Ye and Tang Huan walked side by side.
While wandering around the orphanage, Cheng Ye discovered many strange places.
First, the boys indeed walked in pairs, and they were very close to the team I guessed.
Moreover, three people are indeed unstable, and a partnership of two people is the most stable state.
This orphanage really looks like it is nurturing something.
Second, the cameras in this orphanage are so densely packed that it feels like they are free.
In Cheng Ye's opinion, it is very expensive to equip such a complete set of cameras.
It is different from the ones used at home. It does not intercept and store when someone is there, but records and stores constantly.
There are so many cameras, at least millions.
Is this orphanage so rich?
Or is it that the dean is afraid that the children will escape?
Cheng Ye and Tang Huan chatted wordlessly.
As a child, he quickly opened his heart to Cheng Ye.
He was really happy and chattering, thinking that today was the best day in his life.
I had enough food and made good friends.
Cheng Ye stopped at this time.
He observed that near the office building, there were four cameras shooting 720 degrees continuously, with almost no blind spots.
That's right, during the chat, he kept taking Tang Huan to the office building.
Tang Huan asked him halfway, why were there fewer and fewer people?
Cheng Ye gave a perfunctory reason, and he didn't doubt it.
Now, there are two people ten meters away from the office building. I don’t know what they are talking about. They are sitting on the bench very happily.
The office building is a place where access is not allowed.
But they were not expelled either.
There are two possibilities:
One, ten meters is a safe distance, but the dean disagrees.
Second, ten meters is a blind spot for monitoring, and the dean did not see it.
Cheng Ye decided to try it out.
He patted Tang Huan on the back and whispered mysteriously: "Can you...can you do me a favor?"
He had a scared look on his face.
Tang Huan had long thought that the two of them were the best brothers in his life. When he saw Cheng Ye like this, he patted his chest and said, "If you have anything to say, just tell me and I'll do my best!"
A trace of unbearability flashed in Cheng Ye's eyes, but in order to survive, he still said: "The two people in front...the two people in front bullied me, can you help me warn them."
"Tell them to stop bullying you?" Tang Huan asked, and then immediately said: "I'll just go and beat them up."
After he finished speaking, he walked towards the two people.
Cheng Ye lowered his eyes and quietly hid his figure.
He had long discovered that Tang Huan was a warm-hearted person, starting from the time he kept telling himself not to drink.
He is a very kind and loyal boy.
It's just the inevitable selfishness of people. In the face of life and death, he concealed it a little.
But he would not push himself out unless it was an emergency.
It’s not a big deal, it’s just human instinct to be timid.
Human beings have always been a complex polyhedron.
Everyone's glass bottles will fall and break at different floor heights.
Testing is the most meaningless thing.
After you verify that this glass bottle will not break if dropped from the 20th floor.
You won’t be happy: Wow, our relationship is so good, it won’t be broken like this.
That means going downstairs to pick up the glass bottle, slowly climbing to the 21st floor, and throwing it away again.
As long as the bottle is not broken, you will never get a satisfactory answer.
But for people, timidity, fear, fear, and wanting to live are just the most common emotions.
This should not be brought out and criticized.
so--
Cheng Ye hid behind the tree and quietly looked at Tang Huan who had arrived in front of the two people.
After he heard that he was bullied, he would instinctively think, how could my good friend be bullied.
Now, there are two outcomes.
One, he beat them up and nothing happened.
That means this place is safe.
He can sneak into the office building from here at night.
Two, he beats them up and security comes.
This will tell you how many minutes it will take for the orphanage's security system to arrive on site.
Office buildings are the most sensitive places, and security must be the fastest.
Then the safe time for turning off the power switch at night can be extended a lot based on this time.
Tang Huan took action.
From the first second he hit someone, Cheng Ye started counting.
He records time slowly and calmly.
"one two three four……"
Tang Huan was very cruel, but he was a child after all, so he could only fight like that.
The three people rolled together and actually rolled towards the office building.
Cheng Ye's eyes lit up.
Security will definitely come, right?
"Eighty-nine, ninety, ninety-one..."
It's been more than a minute.
a little slow.
Tang Huan slapped his head hard. Maybe he didn't expect that with his own physique, he couldn't handle two skinny children.
He struggled to twist his body, trying to find his own battlefield.
"One hundred and fifty-four, one hundred and fifty-five..."
People are coming.
The fat woman in the red skirt is here.
Only her.
Cheng Ye frowned, feeling incredible.
He looked around again, and there was indeed only one woman there.
She was smiling all over her face, and said coldly: "Good children, why are you fighting here?"
Cheng Ye looked at the scene in front of him.
It feels really magical.
Is this woman the only security guard in the entire orphanage?
Who is she?
Is it the dormitory aunt, the security guard, or maybe she is the dean.
Cheng Ye remembered what Huanhuan said, that the dean called herself mother.
His eyes focused on this woman again.
The ill-fitting red clothes and the black stockings that stuck out of the flesh.
He remembered the first day he got here.
After the woman entered the dormitory, she began to count the heads one by one.
Everyone determines it personally.
At that time, he didn't think anything was wrong, but now, he feels something strange.
If she were the dean.
Why did she do it herself?
Cheng Ye quietly left the place while watching.
He couldn't stay any longer.
Women's education has come to an end.
He did this not just to get information.
There is also a partial diversion.
Tang Huan and the two unknown children caused trouble, and this woman would definitely keep an eye on them.
This leaves room for the self that really wants to cause trouble.
Tang Huan will not betray himself.
It's just a fight, not between life and death.
Cheng Ye walked around the entire orphanage.
There is a separate office building.
Next to this office building, there are only trees and grass, not connected with other buildings.
Then there is the playground in the middle and the dormitory building on the other side.
I don't know where the girls' dormitory is. Cheng Ye walked around and didn't see it.
The entire orphanage is very simple, not big, and incredibly simple.
Compared with the densely packed cameras above his head, it looks particularly weird.
Cheng Ye came to the playground while thinking.
It's spacious enough here and there are many children playing happily.
Staying here by yourself doesn't look out of place.
He recalled what the entire orphanage looked like.
Slowly a plan came into being.
After slowly perfecting the entire plan, he started his second step——
ask.
He wanted to know why the children had no reaction to the morning's hide-and-seek.
Did you really forget?
He scanned the playground, selected a few targets, and then walked over.
What children can play in the playground is nothing more than playing around.
The few children playing together became Cheng Ye's first choice.
He walked over and started chatting with the children pretending to be bored, and soon he got involved.
Children are not defensive.
You and I started talking about interesting things recently.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Cheng Ye suddenly asked, "Do you think the hide-and-seek game this morning was fun?"
He asked quite innocently, as if he was genuinely curious.
But the children were silent.
They looked at each other with confused expressions on their faces.
