Chapter 52 The Old Man

"Why don't you talk, didn't you just talk for a long time?

Lin Qiao: "..."

The dean came over with a smile, and put a hand on Little C's shoulder, slowly rubbing it.

Little C seemed unconscious, Lin Qiao raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "Little C said that he would be scared when he went to bed at night, and I want to watch them sleep."

The dean said: "No need, they will be taken care of by the nuns."

"It's also the responsibility of the volunteers,"

Lin Qiao said calmly, "And Little C also likes me."

He looked at Little C, and Little C looked at him, and took his hand.

The dean said: "Even so, but—"

"Dean."

A slender hand touched Lin Qiao's shoulder, Fu Mian walked from the side, and gave the dean a faint look.

Dean: "..."

This gaze was as sharp as a falcon, and it was a real threat.The dean lifted his glasses, and the smile on his face remained unchanged: "Since you are so enthusiastic, it will be troublesome—but tomorrow a couple will come to adopt Little C, and you will not be able to guard him by then."

He glanced at Little C, turned around and left. Little C was still a little dazed, and obediently said "Goodbye, Dean".

Fu Mian pulled Little C over, touched the top of his head and said, "If he wants you to go over, just tell us."

Little C rubbed his palm and said, "Why?"

Fu Mian said: "Because we made an agreement with him, when he calls you, he will ask you to come to our side."

Little C nodded and said, "Then I know."

Lin Qiao looked at Fu Mian and said, "If he is adopted tomorrow, the nun will be here tonight."

Fu Mian said: "Then let's watch him and not let him be carried away."

Lin Qiao nodded, then lowered his head to Little C and said, "Do you want to be taken away by other parents?"

"Well……"

Little C thought for a while with his fingers, then shook his head and said, "No, I like this place. And little B hasn't come back since he went out...I don't want to leave."

Lin Qiao didn't speak, but patted Little C's head again.

At noon, the nun came to take some children to have lunch.She must have learned about Lin Qiao and Fu Mian from the dean, but she didn't even look at them, nor did she speak to Little C.

"elder sister……"

Little C still didn't understand why, seeing the nun ignored her, he ran after her for a few steps, was picked up by Fu Mian, and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to dinner."

He and Fu Mian walked into the room, Lin Qiao suddenly sensed a sight, and turned back at the same time as Fu Mian——

In the woods not far away, a hunchbacked old man was staring at them, his eyes were dark and his face was gloomy.

Lin Qiao frowned slightly, and took a step towards Lin Zi.Seeing that they found him, the old man flashed his figure and disappeared into the depths of the forest in a blink of an eye.

Lin Qiao said, "Who the hell is he?"

Fu Mian said: "Don't we have the key to the file room, let's look for it later."

Lin Qiao nodded, Fu Mian held him with one hand, and the two returned to the restaurant together.

In the restaurant, Yi Yuan looked at them and said, "Are you a family of three out for a walk?"

Lin Qiao: "..."

Fu Mian pursed her lips, and tightened the hand that the young man wanted to shake off her.

A few people sat down at the dining table, and Fu Mian put little C down, and ran back to the other children.

Fu Mian said, "Where's Cai Xi?"

There was one more person missing among them, Cai Xi who was going to tidy up the utility room.

Yi Yuan glanced at Gu Feng and said, "Have you seen him before?"

Gu Feng was taken aback, and said, "No, isn't he in the utility room?"

"..."

After lunch, everyone found Cai Xi in the utility room just like yesterday - as expected, he was also dead.

Cai Xi fell to the ground, his hands still covering his eyes.There was a pungent smell of blood in the air, Fu Mian stepped on the blood all over the floor, and pushed Cai Xi's hand away.

"He had his eyes gouged out."

Lin Qiao said, "Is there anything else around?"

"No,"

Fu Mian walked back, "Same as Xu Chang, died for no apparent reason."

The others were speechless. It didn't take long for the dean to learn of Cai Xi's death. He seemed to be used to it, but he was a little shocked, and said, "I will have him buried properly. Go back and rest, and you don't have to work afterwards." gone."

This answer is not unexpected, others can't, they can only go back to their room.Lin Qiao and Fu Mian came to the file room on the second floor. It had been dusty for a long time, and even the keys were rusty.

Fu Mian closed the iron door of the archive room, and said to Lin Qiao, "The breath of the predator has disappeared."

Lin Qiao was slightly stunned, and then remembered that Fu Mian had told him that there was a predator hidden among these people when he got off the train.

"Is it Cai Xi?"

"It's not clear yet."

Fu Mian said, "Under normal circumstances, the disappearance of breath means death, but... Cai Xi is not like a predator."

Lin Qiao thought of the predator Zhang Feiran he had met before, and said, "Indeed, Cai Xi is more like an ordinary player—is it because the predator hides his aura?"

"Marauders don't have that ability,"

Fu Mian said, "If there is, then he is no longer a predator."

Lin Qiao frowned slightly, Fu Mian bent his knuckles, and rubbed lightly on his cheek, saying: "This is just my suspicion, and there is no basis for it yet."

Lin Qiao nodded and said, "Let's look here first.

He thought that the archives should be able to easily find the children's information, but this is not the case.Most of the information here is scattered and not sorted at all.Lin Qiao and Fu Mian searched all afternoon, but they couldn't find any information about the twins or the old man in the forest.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Fu Mian decided to leave, saying, "It's time for the children to go back to their rooms."

Children in the orphanage play during the day and are taken back to sleep by the nuns at night.Hearing what Fu Mian said, Lin Qiao also reacted, and nodded: "Okay."

The children were all sleeping in a spacious room, and Lin Qiao was worried that the dean would take little C away ahead of time, so he stayed in the room.Little C sleeps on the lower bunk near the door.Sitting next to him, Lin Qiao saw Fu Mian brought a quilt.

"Let's get some sleep,"

Fu Mian said, "Someone may come in the middle of the night."

Lin Qiao: "Keep your voice down."

Fu Mian: "..."

He laughed and said in a low voice, "If you have a child, you don't want a man anymore?"

Lin Qiao glanced at Little C, and said in a low voice, "You were a little noisy just now."

Fu Mian sat down beside Lin Qiao, put his arms around his waist and said, "If you like, we can adopt a child in the future and let him and his mother be named Lin."

Lin Qiao let out a "huh": "Who is the mother—"

Before he finished speaking, Fu Mian suddenly pushed him down, and at the same time pulled the quilt over the two of them.

Lin Qiao didn't struggle, he was held in Fu Mian's arms, looking over his shoulder, he saw the door of the room opened at some point.

Light came in from outside the door, and a figure also appeared at the door—it was the dean.

Fu Mian patted Lin Qiao's shoulder lightly, and Lin Qiao closed his eyes.He felt the orange light approaching, and finally stopped on his head.

There was a rustling sound, the sound of the quilt being turned.Lin Qiao turned his head extremely gently, and saw the dean sitting beside Little C's bed, leaning over to look at the child's sleeping face.

Lin Qiao: "..."

After a while, the dean got up again. He didn't stay, but walked directly to the door.When he turned around, Lin Qiao saw a black figure crouching behind the dean.

squeak-

The door of the room was closed, and the light in the crack of the door slowly faded away.Lin Qiao looked at Fu Mian and said in a low voice, "He seems to have left."

Fu Mian kissed Lin Qiao's lips.

Lin Qiao: "..."

Lin Qiao turned his face away, ignored Fu Mian, and sat up.

Little C curled up in the bed comfortably, sleeping soundly.Lin Qiao weighed the quilt for him and said, "Did you see what the dean did to him just now?"

"No,"

Fu Mian said, "He just watched for a while."

Lin Qiao frowned: "There is a child lying on his back, it seems to be Little X."

The black figure crouching behind the Dean has no face, but is about the same size as Little X.Fu Mian was silent for a few seconds, and said: "The dean lied, we will go to the archives room tomorrow and ask other people to help find it."

The dean said that he was not in the orphanage more than ten years ago, and had nothing to do with the twins.It now appears that this may not be the case.

Lin Qiao nodded and continued to watch the night with Fu Mian.After the dean left, nothing happened here again, until at dawn the next day, a person came in again—a nun.

The nun looked at the two extra people in the room expressionlessly, and said, "I want to send this child away."

"Can,"

Lin Qiao said, "But we need to see his adoptive parents."

The nun said, "As you wish."

She bent down and shook little C awake, and little C got up on the bed in a daze, looked at the nun and Lin Qiao, and opened his arms to Lin Qiao.

"hug."

nun:"……"

Lin Qiao hugged little C, and Fu Mian picked up the warm quilt and asked him to wrap the child up.

The nun waited by the side for a while, then turned her head and walked outside.Lin Qiao and Fu Mian followed. They came to the front yard and found a carriage parked there early.

The nun stopped, and an old couple stepped out of the carriage. They were dressed luxuriously, with kind faces, and smiled, "Where's our child?"

The nun said: "It has been brought here."

She turned her head to signal Lin Qiao to give Little C to the old couple, but Lin Qiao didn't move.

He saw a few small black hands on the body of the old couple, holding their clothes tightly and pinching their necks.And they were still smiling kindly, not even noticing.

"I won't give it to you."

Lin Qiao took a step back, and Fu Mian stood in front of him.The nun's complexion changed, and the old couple's complexion immediately sank.

The sky was still gray, only a faint whiteness appeared in the distance.No words were spoken in the yard, and the atmosphere fell into a stalemate.

"what happened,"

Tens of seconds later, the old man spoke first, "Who are these two people?"

"They're not our people,"

The nun hurriedly said, "I'm going to put the child—"

Before she finished speaking, she felt a blur in front of her eyes, and a person rushed over from the side!

boom!

"what!!"

The dull sound of the ax and the screams were only a moment away, and the nun's face was splashed with blood.She stared blankly at the front, and after a few seconds, she let out a scream.

"Killed!!!"

In the dark courtyard, blood flowed all over the ground.An old man held an ax and let out a strange laugh.

The two heads rolled to the side, still maintaining the anger and bewilderment they had in life—it was the old couple.

Fu Mian and Lin Qiao: "..."

Amidst the nun's screams, the old man turned around... and stared at the child in Lin Qiao's arms.
