Li Hua's turn around freed up Yu Mingshu and Zhong Chong's activities.
It doesn't mean that everyone just accepted Tsuka Chong and Yu Mingshu. The reason why they didn't stop Yu Mingshu and Tsuka Chong was purely because they "didn't dare".
The teachers in the orphanage also maintain a distant view of the children with super powers.
The director of the Sawyer Orphanage has long told the teachers that in addition to giving common sense classes to the children with superpowers, he will also give them free space to grow up. When kind-hearted people sponsor them in the future, Just send them to the Super Academy to study.
There are only three teachers in the courtyard. They are all ordinary people. They don't know how to get to the Super Academy. I just think that the dean is kind-hearted and that's why he made such a decision.
Maybe the teachers also thought about telling Tsukasa not to come out of the room, but the dean didn't object, and they couldn't say anything.
Although Yu Mingshu told Zhong Chong not to be afraid, he still consciously took Zhong Chong away from places where he might come into contact with children. Zhong Chong did not object, as he had always come here this way before.
After all, everyone is afraid of him.
The children still complained about the two of them coming out in broad daylight, but the teacher didn't care and they didn't come near them, so the children in the courtyard just stared at them from a distance and stopped talking to them.
Zhong Chong was explaining to Yu Mingshu that the normal class time for the five children in their grace building was separate from the class time for the fifty children in the gospel building.
Classes are in the morning in the Grace Building and in the afternoon in the Gospel Building. Although they had to attend classes every day, Tsuka Takashi felt that the teachers actually couldn't teach them much knowledge. They just wanted to make sure that they were still in the yard every day.
Although the dean has said that he will give them a "free space to grow", neither the dean nor the teachers will allow them to go out except for the playground and yard downstairs and the orphanage. If you are found out, you will be punished. This is what Tsukasa hates here.
The dean clearly wouldn't take him to the superpower academy, and even gave him meaningless hope. He even allowed them, who usually didn't see many superpowers in the city, to gather in the orphanage.
Even if Tsukasa didn't know the dean's purpose, he still vaguely sensed some unfriendly information in the past two years.
"If you go out and are discovered, how will you be punished?"
Yu Mingshu was a little surprised. It seemed that the people here, not even the teachers, wanted to get close to people with super powers. If they were all afraid, how could they "punish" the people they were afraid of?
"Didn't Teacher Mu tell you?" Zhong Chong looked at the time and saw that it was almost dinner time. He stopped walking around outside and took Yu Mingshu to a small restaurant separated from ordinary children.
"No." Yu Mingshu thought for a moment. Teacher Mu did say some precautions, but he didn't say anything about how he would be treated if he went out.
"I will tie you to a pillar and stand there all night until sunrise." Zhong Chong said expressionlessly, "But so far I have only seen one child from our side being arrested, and no one else has. Normally. They don't dare to touch me, and I haven't been out because of my super powers..."
"Corporal punishment." Yu Mingshu concluded. "Are other ordinary kids like this?"
"No." Tsukasa said, "They will be locked in a room without any light for twenty-four hours. They will not be allowed to eat, drink, or defecate during these twenty-four hours."
"..." Yu Mingshu frowned, "Then...who is the child with super powers who has been corporally punished?"
"It's Meng Lili." Zhong Chong looked at the Grace Building outside through the window, "Lily's super power is not lethal and can even bring happiness to others, but it is obvious that she does not want to do this."
Hearing a new name, Yu Mingshu looked at Zhong Chong. Seeing that Zhong Chong looked a little heavy, he said to Zhong Chong in a relaxed tone: "I heard that you were always in the room and never came out except at certain times, but you But you can know so much information, it’s really outstanding.”
"I..." Zhong Chong no longer looked at the Grace Building. He pursed his lips and turned his eyes back to Yu Mingshu with his ears red.
In the past few years, in order to prevent others from getting hurt because of him, Tsukasa basically would not leave the room. When he wanted to relax, he would choose to come out when others were already sleeping. The only time he could get sunshine every day was When standing on the window sill, I usually just spend time in a daze anyway, so I just use my eyes to observe others when there is nothing else.
Today, because of Yu Mingshu's arrival, he experienced the afternoon sun for the first time in a long time. And because Yu Mingshu praised him for his excellence, Zhong Chong's ears warmed up. He was embarrassed by the same long-lost praise, and his expression that had been frozen in "ferocious" became slightly more cute than a child.
Zhong Chong racked his brains to say something to thank Yu Mingshu, but the next moment, his back suddenly tightened, and his whole body tensed up, and then he took Yu Mingshu into his arms in two seconds.
Yu Mingshu:? ? ?
"Tsk, new guy? He can actually touch you." Yu Mingshu turned his head and saw a boy about the same height as Zhong Chong appearing where he just sat.
Yu Mingshu felt a little fluctuation in his surroundings ten seconds ago, but it was not lethal, so Yu Mingshu didn't pay attention.
Zhong Chong did not let go of Yu Mingshu because of the other party's appearance, but instead became more wary of the other party.
"Why are you so serious? I can't touch you." The boy shrugged, "What kind of ability does he have? Is it invalidated?"
"...He is Xinghe, and his ability is 'invisibility'." Zhong Chong was unwilling to talk to Xinghe, but the other person was the person Yu Mingshu wanted to find, so Zhong Chong lowered his head and said to Yu Mingshu who was still in his arms.
He hugged Yu Mingshu, partly because he liked Yu Mingshu's warmth, and partly because Xinghe knew that he would lose consciousness if he touched him, so he could block him from getting close to Yu Mingshu.
Xinghe was seven years old like him, but he had been in Sawyer Orphanage earlier than Tsukasa. His superpower is invisibility, and because of this superpower, he can always enter and leave the yard at will without being discovered.
But his character is very bad.
Whenever he tries to do something prank, the person being pranked will be very unhappy. This kind of unhappiness is so disgusting that I can always recall it in my midnight dreams.
Tsukasa once tried to see his bed covered with centipedes when he was getting ready to go to bed. The teacher that morning had just learned about what centipedes were, and at night they were all over his bed. At that time, his whole body was stiff.
Later I found out that the person who did this to his bed was Xinghe, and the reason was that he accidentally knocked Xinghe's book to the ground in the classroom before class, and was almost seen by the teacher who came in.
Because he was frightened by the centipede, for a period of time, Tsukasa did not dare to sleep on the bed.
And it's not just him, many people have been pranked by Xinghe. All the pranks Xinghe does seem to be stuck in people's bottom line. They can leave a psychological shadow on people and prevent others from truly burning up and mustering up the courage to take revenge on Xinghe.
Moreover, Xinghe is a retaliatory and moody person. No one knows under what circumstances they will make Xinghe unhappy.
Zhong Chong protected Yu Mingshu in his arms because he didn't want Xinghe to bring mischief to Yu Mingshu.
Yu Mingshu poked his head out of Zhong Chong's chest and looked at Xinghe curiously.
Xinghe's hair is gray, and each of his facial features is very eye-catching, but when combined, he has a slightly less presence. It can't be said that he doesn't look good, but it just makes people feel a little weird.
To put it bluntly, it is not so much that his presence is weak, but that he deliberately lowered his brightness in an attempt to make others ignore him.
This is somewhat in line with his "invisible" superpower personality.
"Hello." Yu Mingshu said. He obediently nestled in Zhong Chong's arms and introduced himself: "My name is Uncle Ming. I am three years old this year, almost four years old."
Xinghe raised his eyebrows. In his eyes, Yu Mingshu, who was sitting obediently on Zhong Chong's lap, had an appearance that other ordinary children did not have. He had never seen any child in the orphanage with a rosy complexion like Yu Mingshu. , innocent eyes without any meaning in their purity.
No matter how you look at it, Yu Mingshu looks more like a pampered young master than an orphan.
The orphans who came to the orphanage all had their own reasons. Either they were poor at home, or they were "disliked" superpowers like them. When he saw that Yu Mingshu was able to contact Tsuka Chonghou who gave others nightmares, he thought to himself. I wonder if this new kid is something more terrifying than a nightmare because of his "talent".
So Xinghe asked directly: "Do you have superpowers? What are they? Why are you looking for me?"
It was just six o'clock at this time, and the bell dinged for dinner. The cafeteria outside began to be bustling, and the voices of children came and went. However, in the small restaurant dedicated to children with super powers, there were only three of them there at this time. Compared to the outside , even more quiet.
Yu Mingshu blinked and said, "I can fly."
Then the small restaurant entered a weird atmosphere.
"...You can...fly?...Pfft, hahaha, what the hell!" Xinghe covered his stomach, bent down and laughed exaggeratedly.
The time is now 2099, and it has been nearly a century since the first super-powered person appeared. Because of the emergence of the Super Power Academy, the super-powered people in the world have a place to live, and at the same time, the super-powered people are also Under invisible control, they generally will not easily appear in ordinary people's society, and then use their superpowers to cause social chaos.
Therefore, although superpowers are still rejected by ordinary people, what ordinary people are really rejected by are mostly lethal or weird superpowers. The abilities of him and Tsuka Takashi, it seems, will It is easy for paranoid people to think that it is easy to go astray, and people have to be on guard.
However, a target-like superpower like "flying" would not cause Yu Mingshu to be cruelly abandoned. In addition, Yu Mingshu looks like an angel doll. How could anyone be willing to abandon Yu Mingshu.
Xinghe laughed and gloated at the same time. He liked to see people who made people feel beautiful being left in this orphanage that was not purely a charity. Xinghe grinned and thought wickedly, when will Yu Mingshu's clean eyes dim like theirs?
Thinking of this future, Xinghe started to look forward to it.
