The two turned around and walked along again. After walking for a long time, they still didn't see the familiar turning point.
Wang Beixin sounded frightened: "Ning Ning, we won't encounter ghosts hitting the wall, right? Why can't we get out even if we go back and forth?"
"I don't know, be careful."
Luo Ningning surrounded Wang Beixin and stared at the surroundings warily.
The two of them were still walking forward.
"Who are you? Why are you here?"
A voice sounded from behind the two of them, and they both turned their heads.
At some point, a person appeared out of thin air behind the two of them.
The man in front of him was over sixty years old, with silver hair as white as snow. Time had left deep wrinkles on his face, but his eyes shone with the light of wisdom.
However, Luo Ningning felt that the old man in front of her looked familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere.
His steps were staggering and his back was slightly curved, as if he had carried a lifetime of vicissitudes and hardships. The voice is loud and melodious.
"who are you?"
Luo Ningning saw that the old man in front of her didn't have any malice, and said thoughtfully: "We are adopted orphans. We accidentally got lost here. Do you know how to get out?"
When the old man heard the word orphan, his expression became excited, and he rushed forward and grabbed Luo Ningning's shoulders.
"Are you orphans? Hasn't Mingdeng Orphanage closed down yet?"
Luo Ningning struggled to break away from the old man's hand, pulled Wang Beixin back, and stared at the suddenly violent old man warily.
"The orphanage is still open."
When the old man heard this, he seemed to have heard some bad news. He took a few steps back in a daze and staggered.
"How could it be? Why hasn't the orphanage closed down yet? This is impossible!"
"Why do you say that?"
Luo Ningning stared straight at the old man who was out of control.
The old man laughed twice like crazy, then stopped laughing and said coldly: "I built this orphanage."
? !
When Wang Beixin heard this sentence, she was so surprised that she subconsciously grabbed Luo Ningning's clothes, "I must have heard it right."
"But isn't that dean the first dean?"
How could the old man in front of me do this?
Wang Beixin didn't say the next half of the sentence, but Luo Ningning understood what she was saying.
"Are you the first dean?" Luo Ningning stared at the old man's face.
"Yes." The old man nodded heavily, "I ran this orphanage by myself. I closed it down after I left. How could it be reopened?"
In the eyes of the two of them, the orphanage was clearly open and thriving, and it didn't look like it had been closed down at all.
If the old man in front of me is really the director of the orphanage, then who is the director in the office?
"The orphanage has only one director, the current director. There is no other director at all."
After Luo Ningning said these words, the old man seemed to have heard some big joke.
"He is fake! Who is the current dean?"
"A man with compact features."
"It turns out it's him! That evil beast!" The old man knew who it was after hearing Luo Ningning's description.
He gritted his teeth and said: "How dare that evil beast take over my orphanage and remove me from the list!"
"What happened? Maybe I can help you."
Luo Ningning tried to get some clues from the old man.
The old man just glanced at the two little kids and said with a smile: "You two kids can't help me. You don't even know the road."
Luo Ningning:...
Wang Beixin:......
The two people are actually about twenty years old.
They couldn't explain the fact that they couldn't get out, so they could only silently acknowledge what the old man said.
When the old man saw that the two of them were quiet, he also changed the topic and talked about other things.
"I haven't seen anyone in a long time. I'm almost bored to death. You are the first living people I have seen in decades."
"Can you chat with me?"
Wang Beixin glanced at the time on her watch. It was still half an hour until 10 o'clock.
She pulled Luo Ningning, biting her ear and said, "How about we chat with him for a while? Maybe there will be clues."
Luo Ningning originally planned to chat with the old man for a while, so he agreed without any hesitation.
The old man's face was filled with a smile, and he walked in front to lead the way: "Come with me, I will take you to a good place, which is very suitable for chatting."
The two of them followed the old man to a corridor and saw him pressing the wall a few times.
The ceiling opened out of thin air, and a staircase appeared, winding down and touching the ground.
The old man climbed up the stairs first and came to the ceiling. He poked his head and looked at Luo Ningning and the two of them: "Come up quickly."
"I am the queen."
Wang Beixin nodded, climbed up the stairs, and after passing through the opening, her eyes suddenly opened up.
What a nice view!
Just looking up, you can see the twinkling stars in the night sky, which is so beautiful that you can't take your eyes away.
Mingdeng Orphanage (Orphans) Rules Article 13:
【13..The night is beautiful. If you can’t sleep, you can go to the attic to watch the stars. If you meet a stranger who claims to be the Dean, you can talk to him/her. 】
It seems that this is the attic mentioned in the rules.
They didn't expect it to be hidden in such a place, no wonder they couldn't find it at all.
When Luo Ningning came up and saw the starry sky over there, she also remembered that rule.
It was a worthwhile trip tonight.
The old man moved a deck chair for them, and the three of them lay on the deck chair and looked at the beautiful starry sky above their heads.
If suddenly this is in a strange copy, this should be a very comfortable scene.
"Isn't it beautiful? This place is a secret base I specially built. Every time I am anxious, I like to lie here and watch the stars. It can make people relax in an instant."
Luo Ningning looked at the starry sky above her head and nodded in agreement. It was indeed beautiful.
"Why are you staying here, and why are you closing this orphanage?"
Luo Ningning looked sideways at the old man beside him who was immersed in watching the starry sky.
"Is your orphanage doing a good job?"
The old man did not answer them immediately, but asked them a question first.
The two of them nodded as they recalled the constant investment in the orphanage every day.
With this continuous investment, this orphanage will be able to operate for a long time.
The future is obviously bright, so why should we close this orphanage?
The old man was not surprised when he saw the two men nodding. He sighed and said slowly: "This orphanage is no longer what I originally intended to establish it from the beginning."
"I don't know since when, my orphanage began to welcome some investors with special quirks. Every time they come here, they want this orphanage to only recruit some beautiful and cute girls and learn some disgusting dances. Jump to them and if I don’t agree, they won’t agree to invest.”
"What about those previous investors?"
"They are all beasts with human faces and animal hearts. They pretended to be so selfless at first, pouring money into the orphanage one by one, and coaxed me into saying they wanted to help the homeless orphans. But when someone opened a relationship After becoming a child, their true nature begins to be exposed!”
