Wen Sengyu was a little surprised. It turned out that they had been staying on the back mountain for such a long time.
"Okay~ I happen to be a little tired, so let's rest here. Please help Mother Liu arrange a room for us~" Wan Qian said mischievously, as if she had never experienced what just happened.
Liu Ping took them to the guest room on the second floor. Like the children's rooms, it was also separated for men and women. Wan Qian and Zhou Shiya were assigned to one room, and Wen Sengyu and the four other men were assigned to two rooms on the opposite side. .
"You guys have a good rest first. I'll call you after lunch break." Liu Ping took them to the room and left with the cake.
Wen Sengyu and Xiao Xiaobin were assigned together, and they sat on the bed and looked at each other.
"What happened just now? Aren't these two Liu Pings the same person? Why are their attitudes so different?" Wen Sengyu asked curiously.
Xiao Xiaobin also frowned and shook his head and said: "I don't understand either, but it shouldn't be a person, or maybe this orphanage has a protection mechanism, and there is no way to reveal the original shape in it?"
Although Xiao Xiaobin's words sound ridiculous, they are not unreasonable.
The clock in the room pointed to 2 p.m., and the lunch break "curfew" began.
There are more and more mysteries in the orphanage, which makes Wen Sengyu upset. He is not in the mood to really rest at this time, but his body tells him that he is very tired.
Wen Sengyu tilted his head and glanced at Xiao Xiaobin, who was also not asleep. His eyes were staring straight at the ceiling.
"You can't sleep either?" Wen Sengyu asked.
"Well, there are too many mysteries that need to be solved, and I don't have a clue right now." Xiao Xiaobin thought the same as him.
"What do you think the purpose of their lunch break is? We have never arrested a resident to ask what is going on." Wen Sengyu said.
"It must have something to do with this orphanage." Xiao Xiaobin still stared at the ceiling. "After what happened in the cave just now, I think the children in the orphanage may have been raised from the soil. Of course, this is just a guess on my part."
Wen Sengyu fell silent after hearing this, because he had also thought about the same problem and had the same guess.
But if you want to unlock this secret, you can only find a way to go into the "delivery room" and take a look.
"I've thought about it too, but did you hear the children crying on the street during lunch break?" Wen Sengyu asked Xiao Xiaobin.
"I heard it. I even opened the curtains to look and found nothing." Xiao Xiaobin replied. "But then he just entered the room."
"What does your child look like?" Wen Sengyu suddenly thought of this question.
"The rotten face has a few bugs hanging on it." Xiao Xiaobin said.
According to his description, the child Xiao Xiaobin saw and the child Wen Sengyu saw should be the same person, but why were there so many children's voices in the street during lunch break?
There is another question that also bothers Wen Sengyu, that is, if the lunch break is just to screen the next survivors, then what is the purpose of this lunch break?
Wen Sengyu's brain was running so fast that he didn't even notice the changes by the window while thinking.
"Dong dong dong!" A small hand was trying hard to slap the window.
"Brothers, can I come in?" A childish voice came from the window, but Wen Sengyu didn't pay attention at all.
"Wen Sengyu, Wen Sengyu!" Xiao Xiaobin pushed him and woke him up from his thoughts.
Wen Sengyu glanced at Xiao Xiaobin who pushed him, and then asked curiously: "What's wrong?"
Xiao Xiaobin pointed out the window and said, "Didn't you hear?"
"What did you hear?" Wen Sengyu became even more curious.
"Someone knocked on the window just now and asked if they could come in." Xiao Xiaobin said.
"Brothers, can I come in?" The childish voice sounded outside the window again.
This time Wen Sengyu heard it. The voice was actually very familiar. It should be that little boy.
Wen Sengyu glanced at Xiao Xiaobin, then nodded and said outside the window: "Come in, kid."
Although Wen Sengyu was ready, the moment the little boy came in, his rotten face still made Wen Sengyu uncomfortable, so Wen Sengyu didn't even look at his face.
"What's the matter...is something wrong?" Wen Sengyu asked guiltily. He glanced at Xiao Xiaobin from the corner of his eye, but he kept looking at the little boy very calmly.
"Did you help me find my mother?" the little boy said in a childish voice. If you didn't look at his face, the voice was still very cute.
Wen Sengyu strengthened his heart this time, then looked into the little boy's eyes and said sincerely: "Not yet, give the big brothers some more time, didn't we agree before the day of choosing a child?"
"Okay, then I'll come back to you tomorrow." After saying this, the little boy was about to leave, but was stopped by Wen Sengyu.
"Kid, what's your name? I haven't asked you before, and what's your mother's name?" Wen Sengyu asked.
"My name is Pengpeng. I don't know what my mother's name is, but she has beautiful hair and a gentle smile." The little boy replied.
"When was the last time you saw your mother?" Wen Sengyu didn't know why he asked this question.
The little boy was silent for a while, probably thinking. Then he raised his head and said to Wen Sengyu: "I remember there were many candles and other children. Everyone was happy and singing all the time."
There are many candles and everyone is happy, isn't it supposed to be a birthday?
When Wen Sengyu wanted to ask more questions, the little boy disappeared.
He looked at the time on the wall and saw it was 5 o'clock.
"I finally know what you meant last time when you said time flies by. It seems that time will automatically jump after reaching a certain stage of goal." Xiao Xiaobin also looked at the clock on the wall and said.
After the lunch break, Wen Sengyu and his wife first came to Bian Han's room. After briefly asking about the situation, they found that they had also obtained some important information.
Now they know the following: 1. The little boy died on his birthday. 2. The little boy’s name is Pengpeng. 3. The little boy’s mother has beautiful hair. 4. The little boy has no father.
With the above clues, the four of them met Wan Qian and Zhou Shiya in the lobby who were going downstairs.
After continuing to exchange clues, Wen Sengyu discovered that Wan Qian also learned important information, that is, the little boy has many brothers and sisters.
After everyone thought about it, they zeroed in on Liu Ping, because now she and her orphanage best fit the description of the little boy.
"Isn't it just a birthday party tonight? Liu Ping just invited us to attend. Let's see what happens." Wan Qian said during the discussion.
But they ignored one problem, that is, they were not the only ones invited, but everyone else.
As of 7:50 p.m., 36 people had gathered in the lobby of the orphanage.
As the clock pointed to 8 o'clock, the door of the orphanage slowly closed. On the hour, Liu Ping also walked out of the elevator in a gorgeous dress.
"Welcome to the children's birthday dinner. There are three children celebrating their birthdays today." Liu Ping clapped her hands after saying this. "Children, come out and greet the guests."
I saw two boys and a girl coming down the stairs on both sides. They looked at the adults present shyly, and then whispered: "Uncles and aunts, everyone is welcome to celebrate our birthday. Let's take everyone to the restaurant for dinner." .”
After saying this, several children clearly divided the large group into two teams and climbed to the third floor from the stairs on the left and right respectively.
After arriving on the third floor, Wen Sengyu saw a huge banquet hall. The decoration style did not match the decoration of the entire orphanage, as if it had been renovated later.
Roman chandeliers, Italian wallpapers, Chinese lanterns, Japanese tatami mats, the entire restaurant is a mix of various decoration styles.
After entering the restaurant, Wen Sengyu found that the other children in the orphanage had already taken their seats, but they were all sitting there quietly, watching curiously as the adults took their seats one by one.
"You're welcome, sit down wherever you like, our dinner will begin soon."
After saying this, the children at the scene finally cheered and turned into a seemingly normal group of children.
Wen Sengyu and the others chose to sit in a row to facilitate communication, but as soon as they sat down, he noticed something was wrong.
He noticed that everyone except the child had two identical cups in front of them, containing the same liquid.
"Dong~" As a crisp bell rang, the waiters who came from nowhere began to serve the dishes one by one. Everyone was very cautious and no one moved their chopsticks first.
When all the dishes were served, Liu Ping also picked up the cake she bought from under the table.
This is a three-layer cake. Although it is large, it is definitely not enough to share with so many people present.
"Before eating, let me tell you something. I believe someone has discovered the two glasses in front of you. They look the same, but in fact they are very different, because one of them is poison and you will die if you drink it." Liu After Ping said this, there was a lot of discussion in the audience, but no one protested to her.
Liu Ping glanced at everyone present and saw that no one asked her questions. She continued: "Of course, you are not guaranteed to drink these two glasses of water, but if anyone wants to try it, there will be an unexpected surprise. "
After Liu Ping said this, the audience was excited again, and everyone's discussion became louder. It seemed that some people were eager to give it a try, but more people were waiting for the reactions of others.
"Oh, by the way, except for one person." Liu Ping pointed at a rough man.
Wen Sengyu recognized this man at a glance. He was the man who had an argument with the front desk staff at the hotel entrance.
The rough man immediately stood up from his seat, slapped the table and cursed at Liu Ping: "Fuck you, why did I have to drink this poisonous water?"
"Because your evaluation in the commercial street is not good, this is a decision made after everyone discussed it together." Liu Ping said calmly.
At this time, the children in the seats also started to boo, they banged the dishes with their chopsticks, and then shouted in unison: "Drink it! Drink it! Drink it!"
The man became even angrier when he saw this and yelled: "What can I do if I don't drink?!"
Liu Ping still said calmly: "Then you can withdraw from this dinner, but I think you may lose your life the moment you walk out of this door."
The rough man asked in a panic: "Why?"
"Because people kicked out of birthday dinners always end up in a dead end, and they can't even reach the commercial street." Liu Ping replied patiently.
Hearing these words, the man was a little timid. He was not a bold person to begin with, he just liked to have a good time. The man looked at the two glasses of wine on the table, and then said in a visibly trembling voice: "Just choose. ! Who is afraid of whom! Anyway, there is a half chance!"
Although his voice was trembling, he still shouted these words loudly, probably to embolden himself.
The man picked up the glass of water on his right and drank it in one gulp.
"Hahahahaha! I just said it's okay! I'm lucky." The rough man looked proud, but there was a lot of sweat on his forehead.
Liu Ping stood silently, but looked at the man with a slight smile.
Thirty seconds after the man said these words, the noisy children suddenly fell silent. Everyone put their hands on their laps, and everyone looked ahead without saying a word, as if they were waiting for something.
At this moment, a trace of blood was left in the man's nose. He wiped his nose with his hand. The moment he saw the blood, his expression froze, and then there was blood left in the corners of his eyes, mouth, and ears. His expression also changed from happy to painful.
In an instant, the man fell to the ground.
