The one who walked into this dormitory was indeed Fana, the little girl from Jiuchu who only had dinner with Chu Cheng during the day.
It's just that she was still wearing a white dress at that time, like a blooming lotus. But now she has changed into a black dress with a gothic style and white lace trim, revealing a girlish romance, but at the same time mixed with some kind of weird gloom.
She came to Laya's bed without saying a word, and began to look through the things left here.
Eight beds are crammed into a small single room, and it is conceivable that each person occupies a very limited space. Naturally, it is impossible to have too many personal items in such a small space.
The girl rummaged through the shelf and found a thick book, a planting manual for seedling maintenance. She stretched out her hand to gently caress the cover, and carefully opened the book, she was fascinated for a moment.
"We are applying to build a library." Dean Zhai said on the side, "Of course this is not easy, there are huge problems in both procedures and funds.
But we all feel that it is necessary for children, books are the best channel for them to get in touch with the outside world, and they can also enrich the spiritual world..."
"This book," Fana gently closed the book and said, "I gave it to her."
Dean Zhai was taken aback.
"Ah, I don't even know. You and Raya..."
"The only friend."
Fana stared blankly at the book in her hand for a while, then added.
"It used to be."
"Ah... well, I don't even know." Dean Zhai said apologetically, "If I had known that Raya was your friend, I would have contacted you as soon as something happened."
"We were friends before." She said softly, "I haven't contacted you for a long time."
She carefully put the book back in its place.
"The Public Security Bureau is still investigating. If there is any progress, I will contact you immediately."
"Thanks."
The two started to walk out. Dean Zhai smiled like a kind elder, and patted the **** the shoulder.
"Ha, why are you so polite?" He said with a smile, "Although you are no longer here, you know that our door is always open for you, and you are welcome back anytime.
We're like your family..."
While the dean was talking, the two walked out along the corridor.
Batman secretly followed.
A string of pleasant bells echoed in the empty yard, which was the sign of the beginning of dinner. The aunts carried the children's dinner from the cafeteria to the classroom.
It was a huge silver metal bucket, filled with buckets of viscous whitish porridge, with a few vegetable leaves floating on it.
Honestly, this felt more like fodder than dinner.
Chu Cheng couldn't imagine how he could endure life in this kind of place, even if he wasn't really there, just through the screen, he could feel the lifelessness of this courtyard.
Although he very much hoped to blame the lifeless coldness here on a certain source of infection, but unfortunately, what made this place look like this was not some source of infection, not some evil ancient existence, but human beings themselves.
It's been that way here since long before the infection spread, like so many other forgotten corners of the world.
It was only when he saw Fana here that he remembered that in the girl's file last night, it seemed that she did find that she lived in an orphanage before joining Secret Service Nine, but the basic information did not specify where it was What orphanage.
Now when he thinks about this problem, he operates Batman to access the system of the Ninth Office and checks it before he is sure that this is the place in front of him.
Fana grew up in this orphanage. She didn't leave until she was discovered to have the physique of a strange person and joined Secret Service Nine.
She knew this missing girl named Raya.
Chu Cheng noticed a black car parked outside the door, it should be the car of Secret Service Nine. Chu Cheng guessed that the car and driver specially assigned to her by Nine Offices were considered as her benefits and it was also convenient to keep track of her movements.
After the girl said goodbye to the principal, she came out, and the iron gate was closed behind her. There was a clattering sound when the guard locked the iron chain, and the huge steel gate was like a layer of icy enchantment, isolating this forgotten corner from the world.
Fana stopped in front of the door, turned her head to look at the yard behind her for a moment, and then walked to the car waiting outside.
The driver started the engine early when he saw her, but the girl did not get into the car. She walked to the side of the cab, leaned over and said something softly to the driver. The driver showed a confused expression, but nodded and turned off the engine again.
He continued to wait here while the girl turned and began to walk along the orphanage's outer wall.
Chu Cheng also felt a little strange. Looking at the direction she was going, it seemed that she wanted to go somewhere behind the orphanage, but the address was remote, and beyond that was an undeveloped wasteland. Weeds are overgrown in that direction, and no one has taken care of them for many years. It is already completely dominated by plants.
But she looks like she knows something. After thinking about it, Chu Cheng manipulated Batman to keep up.
The girl walked through tall weeds and bushes, as if she knew exactly where she was going. After walking for an unknown amount of time~www.mtlnovel.com~Chu Cheng finally saw the place she was looking for.
A natural cave.
She entered the grotto cautiously, groping her way down in the pitch blackness. Such an environment happened to provide an excellent cover for Batman, and he followed behind at a certain distance, almost merging with the darkness.
The small entrance can barely accommodate one person, and the experience of entering from here may be far from pleasant, after all, it is narrow and crowded. But as the saying goes, after walking dozens of steps, it suddenly becomes clear. After entering, I found that there is something strange inside.
Chu Cheng was a little surprised when he scanned its internal structure through the detective mode. He didn't expect such a world to be hidden in this overgrown place.
But a detective-mode scan also revealed that they weren't the only visitors to the cave.
When entering through the entrance, it was completely dark at first, but Fana slid along the entrance to the interior for a while, and light soon began to appear in front of her.
When she came to the bottom and landed on the uneven ground, the orange fire rushed to her face.
In a huge space where rocks and soil are mixed, blue vines are crawling all over the stone walls around the cave. A section of torch was bound to the hard stone wall by intricate vines, the flames flickered and flickered, and the figures hitting the stone wall were projected like jagged ghosts.
A figure stepped out of the shadows in front of the cave.
"You're finally back."
The girl in the shadows was pale, and looked even more lifeless under the flickering light of the torch.
Raya Hatta, the girl who disappeared from the orphanage.
She looked at Fana, showing a weird smile that seemed completely unsuitable for her age.
"I guess it won't be easy to get this dingy corner back from such a pretty place."
