Watching Su Chen disappear out of thin air, a hint of surprise flashed in the boy's eyes again. He quickly lowered his eyes and looked carefully at his left leg.

Just now, it was warm and comfortable.

He's treating himself.

The swelling in my ankle has gone down.

The burning pain on my face is gone.

And the chest...

He said the cat ghost was worried about him...

Cat Ghost~

Thinking of the small statue in the orphanage, the boy's hands tightened again.

But soon, he thought of something and became angry again.

A Mao walked up to him.

"Kid, it's your turn."

Well, Master Su is paying special attention to this. You must be more patient and pay more attention.

"Name, age, Xiaoxiao, which one is Xiao?"

The cat ghost jumped up and down beside him: "Big or small!"

Ah Mao frowned: "It can't be the smaller one, right?"

"No one in his family would give a boy this name. Is it the Xiao in dawn?"

The young man had subconsciously frowned, but was stunned when he heard this.

"No?" Ah Mao frowned. "Is that the xiao in filial piety? Xiaoxiao, that doesn't sound right."

"It's the 'Xiao' of brave!" the young man finally spoke.

Ah Mao suddenly realized: "So it's this Xiao."

"He really lives up to his name. He's so brave to chase after human traffickers!"

The boy straightened up.

A-Mao tapped the paper with his pen, frowned quickly, met the boy's gaze, and laughed dryly.

"Well, uncle suddenly couldn't remember how to write it."

"I can!"

The boy took the pen and wrote stroke by stroke.

"Xiao~Xiao~" Ah Mao nodded, "So your last name is Xiao? No wonder it sounds like Xiaoxiao."

"Next time, let people call you Xiao Xiao. That's the right thing to do."

The boy's eyelashes trembled.

The cat ghost noticed that his eyes were red and glared at A Mao.

This police officer talks so much that he almost made Xiaoxiao, no, Xiaoxiao cry.

"How old are you?"

"11 is old."

10 and 11 months.

The boy was thinking to himself that he would soon be 12 years old.

In the past, my parents would buy cakes for my birthdays.

The boy thought of the gold nugget that had been looted.

I originally wanted to sell the money to buy a cake to take to the cemetery to eat with my parents, but now...

Ah Mao couldn't understand the sadness in the boy's eyes and continued to ask the next child.

The cat ghost stared at Xiao Xiao closely, fearing that the child would slip away again when no one was paying attention.

Fortunately, someone from the orphanage came soon.

The moment they saw Xiao Xiao, their eyes were filled with surprise, but soon they rushed in with anger.

When Ah Mao saw them, he asked, "Are you from the orphanage?"

"I need to register the information when picking up the person. Please wait a moment."

"Just send someone to fill it out. Also, Master Su specifically reminded me before he left that Xiao Xiao wasn't abducted by human traffickers because he was playing around. He saw another child being abducted by human traffickers and chased after them."

He lowered his voice and said, "When Master Su brought him here, he was covered in wounds. He looked miserable, but he never shed a single tear. He is a brave and strong child."

"Come to think of it, if he hadn't chased the traffickers, these dozen children wouldn't have been rescued today~"

"Don't criticize him when you get back. Instead, praise him."

"Of course," Ah Mao coughed twice, "We still need to keep a close eye on the child. At his age, shouldn't he be going to school? Haven't you arranged a school for him? Aren't you too inefficient?"

The people in the orphanage cried out for justice.

"How can it be said that there are no arrangements? He has already been assigned a school, but he won't go."

"It's not that he doesn't go, but he disappears after dinner every day and only comes back for dinner at night. I don't know why he sneaks out every day."

Another commented: "Officer, this kid is such a worry."

Ah Mao glared: "That's because you don't care about him much."

The children that Master Su takes care of, even if they have shortcomings, they are only minor ones!

"I believe this child doesn't want to go to school and sneaks out all day. There must be a reason."

Ah Mao looked at Xiao Xiao and said, "Don't be afraid, kid. Tell your uncle what you did when you went out."

"Don't be afraid of them, uncle will protect you!"

As he spoke, A-Mao raised his hand and touched Xiao Xiao's head.

The boy pursed his lips.

Under A-Mao's encouraging gaze, he gritted his teeth and spoke.

"They wrote my name wrong and kept calling me by the wrong name!"

He hated hearing them calling him!

Small, small, small, I am not small!

and also……

He looked at the orphanage director and two caregivers.

"I want to make money to buy cakes."

"My birthday is next month, and I've made an appointment with Mom and Dad to celebrate it together."

The nurse asked anxiously: "But aren't your parents..."

Xiao Xiao glared at him: "I'm going to the cemetery to celebrate my birthday."

Everyone: "..."

Ah Mao said, "Good boy, aren't you afraid of going to the cemetery?"

"I'm grown up now, so I'm not afraid anymore."

Ah Mao nodded: "When is your birthday next month? Uncle should be free to go with you?"

"No, I can do it myself."

A-Mao nodded slowly.

After hesitating for a while, he asked, "Did you make any money?"

Seeing Xiao Xiao's vigilant look, A Mao coughed lightly and said, "Uncle didn't want to give you money. I'm poor myself."

He grinned: "Don't you want to make money? Uncle wants to ask you, are you interested in working in the institute?"

Xiao Xiao was stunned: "...Ah?"

"There's a kid about your age in our institute. His name is Liang Qiwen. He's very brave. You can meet him later."

"Why don't you look back? Come tomorrow. You can see him tomorrow at noon."

The orphanage director asked worriedly, "What kind of job can a child this young like Xiao Xiao do? Don't let her cause more trouble later."

Ah Mao squinted his eyes and said, "I already told him to call me Xiao Xiao, not Xiao Xiao. Kids of this age have strong self-esteem, so don't call me that."

The dean chuckled, "Doesn't this make it seem more approachable?"

"What about your misspelling of your name? Was that a mistake caused by being too friendly?!"

The director looked at the nurse, and they both lowered their heads.

"Okay, take Xiao Xiao back with you guys and ask him to come over tomorrow."

"Also, this child is very sensible and won't cause any trouble, don't worry."

Having said that, the dean and the others had no choice but to nod.

Cat Ghost watched the dean and Xiao Xiao walk away, tilted his head and thought carefully, then turned to look at A Mao.

This police officer...

It seems pretty good.

Next time if Master Su is not here, maybe I can ask him for help.

Su Chen didn't sleep after returning home.

Instead, he went to the island in the middle of the lake, took out Wu Qingqing's body, and studied it carefully.

Zombies are created by dead people who are obsessed with not wanting to escape, but their bodies will decay to varying degrees over time.

This body... the skin has remained white and soft for so long, and it even has warmth to the touch.

Su Chen originally thought that there was a special formation maintaining it, but after studying the large and small formations on the corpse, he found nothing.

strange!

Su Chen frowned and began to think.

Could it be magic?

But if we talk about magic, there must be some Taoist power on the corpse, but it doesn't.

Or is it a power that I haven't discovered yet, similar to the vital energy that is colorless, tasteless and invisible?

Then it would be difficult to study it.

Su Chen pondered for a long time, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind.
