Xiao Hei used all four limbs to crawl over and tried his best to squeeze out a smile.
Compared with these children, Xiao Hei can only be regarded as a baby. He just practiced ghost arts for a few days but was interrupted by me and was called out to act as a tool. Therefore, he is still unable to communicate with these children.
"Xiao Hei, go shake everyone's hands."
I said to Xiao Hei again.
Xiao Hei tilted his head and crawled towards the children. He only took two steps when he accidentally tripped on a wooden board and fell to the ground immediately, taking the opportunity to make a grimace.
Xiao Hei's naive move immediately aroused bursts of laughter from the children. Because of Xiao Hei, the hostility of these children towards me gradually dissipated.
"This is a hell. Why would you send a child to a place like this?"
The little boy touched Xiao Hei's little hand and asked me doubtfully.
"What's wrong with this orphanage? Why is it called hell?"
I asked pretending to be confused: "I don't know much about this place. I just saw an orphanage, so I brought Xiao Hei in."
"You are so confused, here..."
"Little Tiger!"
The little boy was about to say something to me, but suddenly, a stern voice came from behind me.
I looked back and saw Teacher Wang climbing up at some point and walking over quickly with security guard Xiao Li.
"Xiaohu, you are really fooling around. Why did you take the children to the roof? It's too dangerous here. What if an accident happens?"
The orphans seemed to be very afraid of Teacher Wang. When they saw her approaching, they all shrank and hid behind the little boy, trembling.
"Teacher Wang, I..."
The boy named Xiaohu was also very scared, but he still stood up straight, blocking the children and looking at Teacher Wang.
"Hurry down, dinner is about to begin. After dinner, it's time to go to class."
Teacher Wang said to Xiaohu.
"Teacher Wang, I don't want to eat or go to class. Please let us get out of here!"
Xiaohu curled his lips and said with a sad face.
"Xiaohu, you are so ignorant!"
Teacher Wang's face turned cold: "Do you know how dangerous it is out there? We are taking care of you with all our heart, but why don't you think about your safety? You don't appreciate it, but you still think about running away all day long. It really disappoints me!"
"Get down quickly, don't make me angry!"
Under Teacher Wang's strict order, Xiaohu finally did not dare to say anything more. He slowly lowered his head, pulled the little girl, and walked downstairs under the leadership of the security guard.
This little tiger seemed to be the leader of the orphans. Seeing that the leader no longer resisted, the orphans did not dare to say anything. They lined up obediently and followed him one by one.
"Mr. Cheng, thank you for helping us find these children."
After all the children came downstairs, Teacher Wang adjusted his glasses, looked at me and said.
"Haha, you're welcome, this is what I should do."
I waved my hands repeatedly and said with a smile.
"I didn't expect that these children would hide in this place. If it weren't for luck, I wouldn't have discovered them."
Teacher Wang nodded: "The meal will be served soon. Come down and have something. After eating, you can go to room 106 to rest. I will help your child go through the admission procedures tomorrow."
After saying that, Teacher Wang left.
I stood upstairs for a while, then returned the same way and came to the first floor.
The orphans didn't know which room they were locked in, and Teacher Wang was nowhere to be seen.
As soon as I stood in the yard, I smelled a sour smell that kept coming from the kitchen.
Soon, I saw Teacher Song and Sister Sun walking out of the kitchen with a bowl of soup in their hands.
Looking at the bones that were faintly visible in the bowls of the two of them, I immediately knew that this was the lynx broth made by Zhang’s mother!
"Mr. Cheng, hurry up and serve the soup, otherwise it will be gone!"
Sister Sun reminded me as she walked by.
"Thank you, Sister Sun, I'm not hungry yet."
I said with a smile.
"Haha, if you don't drink, you will end up with the same outcome. I advise you to be honest and not be so unconventional."
Teacher Song glanced at me and said with a hint of drunkenness.
Before I could ask, the two of them had already walked over and returned to their room.
I was thinking about what Teacher Song just said when I suddenly felt something strange behind me. I turned around and saw Teacher Wang sitting there in a room in the corner of the first floor, staring at me through the window!
For some reason, I felt a chill in my heart, so I could only smile at Teacher Wang and then walked into the kitchen.
It seemed that Teacher Wang was monitoring me to see if I would drink the broth.
Anyway, I haven't found any clues yet. I can't arouse Teacher Wang's suspicion, so I plan to follow Teacher Song's suggestion.
When I walked into the kitchen, I saw Zhang Ma still standing in front of the chopping board, chopping meat vigorously. It seemed that she had made no other movements during the time I left.
"Mama Zhang, have you eaten yet?"
I smiled and said to Zhang Ma.
However, I don’t know whether Zhang’s eyesight is dim or she deliberately pretended not to hear. She didn’t respond at all to my question. She still stood mechanically in front of the chopping board and repeated the action of chopping meat.
I could only smile, pick up a porcelain bowl, fill a bowl of broth, and walk out.
"Xiao Hei, how do you like this broth?"
I came to the yard, pointed at the broth, and said to Xiao Hei.
Xiao Hei just smelled it and immediately showed a disgusted expression, the same reaction as before in the water tank.
Naturally, I didn’t know how to drink this kind of thing. I looked around and found no trace of Teacher Wang, so I took the opportunity to pour the broth into a corner, then wiped my mouth and looked like I still had something to say.
I repeated this several times, and I poured out a bowl of broth. I made sure no one noticed it, and then I put the empty bowl back in the kitchen.
Immediately, I glanced around and found the house number of Room 106, and walked over, intending to rest for a while.
When passing by Room 104, Teacher Song suddenly poked his head out, looked at me drunkenly, and laughed again.
"I can't tell, but you're pretty good at it."
I looked around and saw no one around, so I took the opportunity to ask: "Teacher Song, I want to ask you a question. You just kept saying that the final result is the same. What exactly do you mean?"
"hehe,"
Teacher Song sneered: "Boy, you are asking for death by joining the orphanage at this time. Neither you nor your child can escape."
I was stunned: "Teacher Song, I hope you can explain why you say that?"
"Hey, it won't be fun if you talk too much. You can't change anything anyway, so just accept your fate!"
After finishing speaking, Teacher Song slammed the door and closed it.
