Absolute Zone Zero: As a corpse, elegance needs no words
Chapter 147 Daily Life in the Orphanage 3
"You understand."
For the children in the orphanage, father and mother are very vague concepts, just like herself, she has no feelings.
In their eyes, the dean, Xiaoying, and she are all family members, there is no difference.
But Peschi is different. She came to the orphanage because no one took care of her after her parents got into trouble.
In other words, she already had a clear understanding.
"what do you mean……"
Xuan Li's pupils shrank slightly, and he understood something.
"Well, Pesci's mother passed away due to the Hollow Disaster, and her father also met with an accident while trying to protect her..."
"I don't know the actual situation, but I heard from the dean that when the officials arrived, Peschi's father was almost completely destroyed. Before that, he had already blocked many corpses."
"When the rescue team was about to evacuate Pesci, his father had completely transformed into a corpse."
"At that time... Pesci was still awake..."
Nicole didn't say anything else after that, but Xuan Li could already guess the outcome.
After a creature turns into a corpse, it will lose its mind, and the nearest rescue team will undoubtedly be the first target of attack.
To retreat safely, the rescue team has only one option...
That is to say, in front of Peschi, her father died "twice".
This was undoubtedly a huge blow to a child, not to mention that her mother was no longer around...
Xuan Li's eyes gradually calmed down. He planned to contact the little girl and see if he could do something.
"Brother Xuanli!"
Just then, a voice was heard, and a little girl ran towards this side, followed by two little boys, pulling Xuan Li to the other side.
Xuan Li was a little confused, but he still stood up and followed the three little guys.
The little girl in the lead pulled Xuan Li and started to complain.
After a period of getting to know each other, these children have already regarded Xuan Li as a good older brother.
"Okay, okay, I'll help you teach them a lesson. With my help, they'll definitely be defeated."
Xuan Li looked at the little girl who looked unconvinced, smiled helplessly, and then he continued
"But before that, we have to find another partner."
Xuanli brought three children to Peixi, who had short brown hair and was drawing something on the ground with a branch.
Noticing someone approaching, Peschi looked up, a look of confusion in her eyes.
When she saw it was Xuan Li, she lowered her head again and continued painting.
"What is little Pesci drawing?"
Xuan Li half-knelt beside Pei Xi, his eyes fell on what she was drawing, and asked curiously:
Peixi hesitated for a moment. Although she had not had much contact with Xuanli, she still had a good impression of this handsome and gentle big brother.
"I do not know either."
She shook her head. She was not saying this perfunctorily. She was just messing around with what she felt like and was not actually drawing anything.
"In that case, why don't you put down what you are doing and play some fun games together?"
Xuan Li extended his hand to Pei Xi, and the three people beside him also understood Xuan Li's intention and echoed him.
"Yeah, yeah, Pesci, you don't play with us much, I don't even know how 'strong' you are now!"
"Yes, Peixi, join us and defeat Xiaofeng and his men together to secure the title of champion today!"
They are not excluding Peixi, it's just that Peixi is unwilling to participate. Now Xuanli plans to invite her, and they are also looking forward to playing together.
"Can I...?"
Peschi's voice was very low, and she seemed to be hesitant. She seemed to have no confidence in herself, and that was true for everything.
After hearing this, Xuan Li understood a little about Xiao Peixi's current condition. He didn't say anything more, but directly took her hand and stood up.
"Let's go."
He pulled Pesci towards the children without saying a word, and never gave her a chance to choose.
If you finally have to back down, then make the choice for you.
Sometimes it's appropriate to be tough.
Nicole watched this scene from behind, with a smile on her face.
"This guy is quite talented in taking care of children..."
It’s not that she hasn’t tried to solve Peixi’s problem, but she has never succeeded. She doesn’t know if Xuanli can do it?
Gradually, time passed by little by little.
The sun sets and the afterglow falls.
In the yard, the children who were tired from playing were holding the equally exhausted cat and found a blanket to rest. There were also a few little ones who were still playing happily.
Xuan Li was beside Pei Xi, accompanying her so that she could better integrate into these little guys.
After spending some time together, although there are still many small problems that are difficult to solve, at least there are some results.
Xuan Li's gaze fell on Peixi. She was a little quiet and timid, even when she was playing games.
Perhaps this is inseparable from what she has experienced...
Relaxing time always passes quickly.
As the sun sets, night comes with a sky full of stars.
……
Unlike other prosperous areas in Janusz District, the area where the orphanage is located is remote and poorly developed, so there are not many night activities.
This is especially true in the orphanage. Most of the children have already fallen asleep. The one or two who have not fallen asleep will be almost asleep after they have squandered their remaining energy.
In a small room in the orphanage.
"Why would Xuan Li be interested in coming here?"
"It's so late, don't you want to rest?"
Nicole's voice rang out, and she deliberately lowered her voice so as not to wake up the children who were resting in the large room not far away.
"Yeah, just take a walk."
Xuan Li nodded slightly and his eyes fell on a group photo on the table. The setting in the photo was a small room, very similar to where he was now.
He didn't recognize anyone in the photo, but he knew without a doubt that the little girl with long pink hair was Nicole.
As for the middle-aged man, he should be the dean Nicole mentioned, and the little girl lying on the bed...
The round metal is smoother and shinier than a mirror.
Xuan Li withdrew his gaze.
"This was her original room."
Nicole noticed Xuanli's actions and knew that he had already seen through it, but she still opened her mouth to explain.
The words fell lightly, and the room fell into silence.
After a moment, Xuan Li's gaze fell on the corridor outside the window, then moved to the side, and then raised his eyebrows.
"Pessy?"
Nicole also looked over when she heard that. She walked through the open door and saw Pesci sitting quietly by the window in the empty activity room filled with moonlight.
