At night, the lights in the corridors are a bit dim because they are turned on at intervals.
The sound of leather shoes hitting wooden boards came from the wooden handrail stairs... She stopped only half way, the director of the orphanage.
Who seems to be talking to.
is calling.
Sister Celine had held her breath, huddled together with Metanzo, listening carefully. She was extremely nervous, but she looked at Metanzo with a rather excited look.
“…Okay, I understand, I will find the two children as soon as possible. Don’t worry, I will not delay the [shipment] time…I know the consequences.”
The voice of the director is that of a typical old and snarky type. Selien has been working in this orphanage for a few weeks. She has seen the director several times, but she did not dare to approach him several times.
The sound gradually faded away, but the director did not go down the stairs at this moment, but suddenly turned back and walked up the road.
“She’s gone.” Only then did Metanzo release his hand covering Celine’s mouth.
Selien's chest rose and fell a few times, and then she gradually breathed out, but she still had lingering fears and said, "Director, you shouldn't have noticed, right?"
“Don’t stay here yet.” Medanzo asked abruptly: “Do you know which dormitory floor the brother and sister live in?”
“Follow, follow me.” Sister Celine said quickly.
…
The dormitory building of the orphanage is very tall and large. It took the two of them some time to reach the back stair door of the destination floor.
"There are no patrolling guards outside, but there are four surveillance cameras in the corridor." Selien glanced over her head, then turned back and said, "We...are we going to go there like this?"
“Let me think about it.” Medanzo sat directly on the ground at this time, taking a few puffs on the pipe from time to time... and smoke really came out.
Selien didn't dare to interrupt at first, but she kept recalling what she overheard the director saying in her mind. She couldn't help but hesitate and said: "You...you said, who is the director talking to? Also,
What does [shipment] mean? Could it be that I heard it wrong."
“If you heard it wrong, then I heard it wrong too.” Medanzo responded casually.
Selien opened her mouth and suddenly felt a chill. She subconsciously rubbed her arms.
“Come, grab me by the ears.” Medanzo said suddenly.
"Um?"
…
Ouch, it hurts, it hurts, I know I’m wrong!
How many times have I told you not to be naughty, and yet you still do it!
“Look, there’s something wrong with this?”
In the monitoring room inside the hospital, two expressionless women were observing the huge split screen in front of them motionlessly.
"It is nothing special."
"Well, maybe I'm too sensitive. If I look elsewhere... I haven't found the brother and sister yet, the director is going to get mad."
The door to the monitoring room opened at this moment, and someone walked in directly.
The two women who were watching the surveillance turned back, their expressions changed slightly, they quickly stood up and said respectfully: "Director!"
The director didn't speak, her eyes just quickly looked at the various shots on the huge screen, and her eyes quickly locked on a corridor.
…
In the corridor, I saw Miss Selien, the young caregiver of the orphanage, holding a child by the ear and scolding her while walking.
This immediately aroused the ideas of the curious children in the room. They tried to open the door and peeked out, but were quickly scolded back by the vicious Miss Selien.
“Go back to your room and reflect on it!”
Miss Selien came to a door, grabbed the child, walked in and closed the door.
The children were in a dormitory for eight people, with four bunk beds. When Selien grabbed Metanzo's ear and walked in, several children in the room all looked at this scene in surprise.
After closing the door, the new Miss Selien immediately let go of the child whose ears were grabbed... She seemed to be a little scared.
“This may be the most glorious moment of your life~” Medanzo said with a half-smile at this time, “Even [He] didn’t pull my ears.”
She doesn’t know what [He] is and only regards him as a very important person?
Miss Selien wiped her palms on her clothes in embarrassment, and then looked at the children in the room. The nurse in the garden had a strong power to shock the children, and the children were quite scared and at a loss at this time.
"Sai, Miss Selien, please, what's the matter?" A child who seemed to be the oldest among the children mustered up the courage to ask: "He...who is he? It doesn't seem to be in our room?"
Celine and Medanzo looked at each other, then composed themselves and said: "He is with me, and we will talk about his affairs later. I am here to ask you something, about Xiaoya and her brother."
The oldest child's expression changed slightly at this time, and then he seemed to be afraid to look at Celine's eyes, "Haven't you come here to ask several times before..."
“How many times?” Sister Selien couldn’t help but be startled, and subconsciously looked at Metanzo.
Metanzo shrugged and said, "Just because we can think of it doesn't mean others can't think of it."
I didn’t expect that!
"Yes...yes." The older child nodded, "I've been here a few times, and I always ask if Xiaoya is back. We will say that she hasn't come back yet, and then leave."
Sister Celine nodded.
But he saw Metanzo suddenly approaching at this time, squinting at the older child, "What did you just say? You guys can say it? It sounds like it was agreed upon... You guys met early in the morning
Do you know how many times someone will come to ask?"
"Ah?" The older child looked panicked and shook his head quickly, "No, no!"
“Really not?” Medanzo leaned closer.
The older child seemed to be frightened for some reason. He sat down on the ground, his body trembling, and he looked very scared.
Sister Celine couldn't see it, but she didn't say anything... She also felt that the child seemed to be hiding something.
“I don’t know anything, we don’t know anything!”
Metanzo frowned, but suddenly looked out the window. At this moment, something was knocking lightly... Hearing the sound of knocking on the window frame, the children in the room suddenly became panicked.
Without saying a word, Sister Celine walked directly to the window, but the children in the room rushed to the window to stop her. The older children even shouted, "Run!"
Seeing this, Medanzo suddenly walked around to the side without anyone paying attention, pushed open the window, and saw the face of a panicked child peeking out from the window.
There was a child who was lying on the edge of the outer wall. The moment the window was suddenly opened, the child was frightened. He lost his balance and was about to fall downstairs.
Everyone was shocked.
At this time, Sister Celine rushed out without thinking and grabbed the child's feet. However, half of the nun's body was stuck in the window... Fortunately, it didn't fall.
“Hurry up and help me!” Selien said loudly at this time.
Metazos blinked, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he helped, dragging the people back, including the child who climbed the wall.
This child is not Xiaoya, nor is he Xiaoya’s brother.
…
“Tell me! What’s going on!”
Sister Celine looked sternly at the children standing in a row with their heads lowered, including the child climbing the wall.
When the child was rescued, he was still holding a small basket in his hand.
Selien had too much experience in dealing with this kind of situation. Seeing that the children were silent, she said directly: "You know, children who lie and break the rules will be locked up and starved according to the rules of the park. Don't you?
If you say it doesn't matter, let's get punished together... Also, I will take you to see the principal later, and you must tell the principal this matter."
“Don’t take us to see the principal!” The children turned pale for a moment, and then started to blame each other, as if trying to find one who would take the initiative to tell them.
Finally, the oldest child took on everything and was elected by everyone.
This child also looked like he was breaking a pot, "Okay, okay, I said it! He is going to deliver food to Xiaoya and the others!"
…
…
Outside the window of the room, there was a [rope] made of clothes and sheets rubbed and tied together. Just after it reached the ground, following this rope, several children, including Celine and Medanzo, slipped down one by one.
Selien took a look and saw that there were no surveillance cameras installed on the outer wall here... She probably never thought that these children could be so bold.
“Sai, Miss Selien, are you really not going to tell the director..."
"You take me to find Xiaoya and the others, and I will help you hide this matter." Sister Selien said angrily: "Do you know that it is very dangerous to be like this? What if you get injured? Also?
It's too dark outside, Xiaoya and the two are hiding outside, what should we do if something unexpected happens?"
"Okay, okay..." The children could only nod.
With that said, the child who had climbed back from the wall led the way and took everyone to a trail in the park.
It’s just that the child’s walking rhythm is a little weird, he stops and goes, he stops after taking a few steps, and it’s very winding.
Sister Celine couldn't help but ask: "What's the matter with you?"
The child leading the way was about to speak, but Metanzo suddenly said: "I think it's to avoid the surveillance cameras here."
“How did you know?” The child leading the way looked at Medanzo in surprise. He could not remember when this child was in the courtyard.
Metazo said: "Compared to this, I am more curious about how you discovered the blind spot pattern in surveillance?"
The child leading the way shook his head and said, "My brother told me."
Saileen and Metanzo looked at each other, and Saileen asked doubtfully: "Brother?"
"Xiaoya's brother!" said the child leading the way: "My brother is the smartest. He comes first in every exam. Even the oldest person in the courtyard can't compare with my brother!"
Sister Celine frowned and said subconsciously: "Speaking of which, what is the name of Xiaoya's brother?"
"Brother is a brother, right?" the child leading the way said matter-of-factly, and then added: "You can't walk yet. My brother said you can't stop for too long when walking this road, otherwise you will make mistakes!"
Sister Celine could only remain puzzled, and continued to move forward with Metanzo and the children.
…
“You don’t know the child’s name?” Metanzo suddenly asked in a low voice.
"I can't remember." Sister Selien shook her head: "Logically speaking, if I am ranked first in every exam, I can't be unimpressed."
Metanzo said: "So...there is no such [brother]?"
"No!" Sister Celine shook her head: "There is this child. There is indeed a child who is number one in academic performance and omnipotent in sports...but, the strange thing is, I really don't know what his name is."
"I know it exists, but I don't know its name..." Medanzo chewed his pipe and muttered: "Is it a concept? It's interesting... It seems to be somewhat close to the center of the world."
“Arrived, arrived, right in front!”
The child leading the way suddenly pointed forward.
And ahead, there is a... theater.
…
“You are actually hiding here in the theater?” Sister Selien was quite surprised. “Shouldn’t this place have been searched?”
The child leading the way said proudly: "The floor of the stage can be pried open, but adults can't squeeze in, but we are fine!"
Sister Celine shook her head and was about to speak when she saw several children suddenly rushing onto the stage and hiding behind the curtain.
"you?"
Seeing this, Sister Selien quickly followed. Just when she was about to open the curtain, she felt as if she had stepped on something...it turned out to be a rope!
In other words, it is a loop of rope.
The rope tightened instantly, strangling Sister Celine's ankles. At the same time, her body instantly lost its center... When the rope was pulled up, she was pulled to the top of the stage, and she was actually hung upside down. stand up.
The skirt had no anti-gravity and instantly flipped down, almost covering her face.
“It’s blue~”
Backstage, the sound of children laughing was instantly heard... Sister Selien was ashamed and angry. She quickly held down the normal gravity skirt and said slightly angrily: "What are you going to do! Let me go! Medanzo ,Come and help me, Metanzo?"
In the panic, Sister Celine’s sight was filled with no trace of Metanzo.
At the same time, the curtain of the stage suddenly fell down. The falling curtain covered the children hiding inside, making them miserable.
Sister Celine opened her mouth, but she saw Metanzo standing at the edge of the stage without knowing it, with a rope in his hand.
“I like to bully naughty kids the most.” Metanzo chuckled lightly at this moment, and immediately walked to the back of the stage.
“Hey! Put me down!” Sister Celine shouted from behind.
A stream of light suddenly shot out, and the rope hanging her was broken instantly, and she fell to the stage. At this time, a white feather slowly fell down, and finally fell on her head.
…
There were many traps on the road, but Metanzo easily avoided these traps, which in his opinion were quite simple.
But considering that these are all settings made from local materials, it is a bit surprising that it can be done to this extent.
He walked into a room on the stage where a large number of puppets were placed.
"The traps on the road are all good, but if they are of this level, they are not enough." Medanzo walked around randomly among the dolls: "Do you want to continue the hide-and-seek game? I don't mind, it's rare for me anyway. I can move once.”
Just as he finished speaking, dozens of dolls fell down from above Metanzo's head.
He shook his head, barely looked at them, and moved away gently.
But at the moment when he dodged, a sharp object was quietly delivered to his throat in the darkness.
Metanzo's eyes narrowed, and his body stopped strangely at this moment. If he couldn't stop, his throat would directly hit this sharp object.
All of this seems to have been calculated...even the route of escape?
"So, those traps in front that look like pranks are all for this last moment, right?" Medanzo slowly raised his hands and looked at the dim, conflicting scene.
A small figure of Ruizhiwu asked, "Are you...that [brother]?"
The small figure holding a sharp object in the darkness remained motionless... Medanzo frowned. He suddenly stretched out his fingers, pinched the sharp object, and then gently pulled it.
What was pulled out was surprisingly just a doll.
“You can actually calculate this far?” Medanzo shook his head, feeling that he had underestimated the other party. He casually threw away the sharp object in his hand, but found that... he could not throw it away.
Things are actually coated with all-purpose glue??
At the moment when he was surprised, a fallen puppet suddenly got up and hit Metanzo directly on the back of the head!
