Veronica and Caleb. The two of them didn't stay in the orphanage long, they came out soon.

Although they are sad, their heads are still clear enough to know what is important now.

When things here are over, when the storm subsides, they will have plenty of time to mourn everything.

Now is not the time.

"We have initially dealt with some... traces inside."

Veronica didn't have enough time to clean up all the problems in the orphanage, but it was easy to do a simple tidying up.

The biggest problem in the orphanage has been dealt with, and the rest can be slowly found ways to clean up.

There are many places inside the building that look like they have been ravaged by wild beasts, and there are quite a few claw marks everywhere. However, these traces can be easily covered up by just using violent means to destroy them one more time.

When there is enough time later, all problems can be solved slowly and completely without anyone noticing.

"We will find a way to deal with the matters here, and the Nares Gang will not be implicated. You can rest assured."

Annan wanted to say that he was not worried about the Nares Gang at all. He felt that this beautiful woman seemed to have some misunderstanding.

However, he didn't say anything more in the end and just let the other party continue to misunderstand. It was a bit too troublesome to explain.

"We will temporarily close this orphanage. Normally no one would come here, so no one would notice the changes here... Unexpectedly, no one paying attention to this place will turn out to be a good thing now. "

As long as the biggest problem at the scene was cleared up, Veronica didn't worry much about how to deal with the aftermath.

The orphanage she has been running has never had any so-called income, and it has never been able to find well-wishers to donate. Although it is officially registered with the government, no one has cared about it from the beginning to the end.

On the one hand, Veronica has not carried out any external publicity, and on the other hand, because the children taken care of by this orphanage are basically all disabled, it is difficult to find kind-hearted people to adopt them.

It has been almost ten years since this orphanage was established, but it is still as unknown as it was at the beginning.

Veronica knew that she couldn't continue like this. She couldn't rely on her own efforts alone. Sooner or later, there would be problems with the operation of the orphanage, but she didn't know what to do.

Then, these worries will not appear again in the future.

"……let's go."

What needs to be done has been done. Although not everything has been handled properly, there is no need to worry for the time being.

"Where are you going next? Do you want to go to the nightclub with us, or do you want to meet up with Roderick?"

After getting in the car, Veronica talked about business as if to distract herself.

"Don't you have to look for those kidnapped children?"

At this time, Annan turned around and changed the subject.

"...No need."

Of course, it was impossible for Veronica to forget the main purpose of their trip to the orphanage. It was simply the unexpected accident that happened next that interrupted everything.

"The orphanage has become like that, and it is impossible to leave too many clues. It should be said that there is no possibility at all..."

The most important clue, that is, the director of the orphanage himself, is now dead and nothing can be asked.

As for the so-called on-the-ground traces, it is impossible to find them.

Although Veronica still didn't want to give up, she had already guessed what would happen to the children who were kidnapped last night.

After the accident at the orphanage, Veronica had to face reality, so she knew it was best to stop now and not continue to cause trouble.

"No, maybe some of the children kidnapped in your orphanage will survive, maybe."

Annan shook his head in disagreement.

Veronica turned around sharply and stared at Annan in the back seat.

"...What do you mean? Did you find something in the orphanage!?"

"No, I couldn't find anything useful in the orphanage. This is just a guess on my part, so I said it's possible."

Facing the sharp gaze of the woman in front of him, Annan still shook his head.

"There are still many things that have not been clarified about what happened last night. However, the essence of this incident should be a huge black magic ritual involving the entire city, and it must have been prepared in advance.

So, don't you find it strange? Why did he suddenly go to the orphanage and abduct some disabled girls not long before the ceremony? "

Veronica also wanted to know why.

She had never thought that an orphanage caring for a group of disabled children would be attacked. Normally, this would be impossible.

But in fact it happened.

Although the director of the orphanage lost control in the end, before that, he called Peggy. Buck told the story clearly.

This should not be a lie made up by the director of the orphanage.

"That's what I think. Trinidad Nares has long known that there are children of dark creatures hiding in your orphanage. He may even have known the true identities of you and other companions, but he has never Do anything, for you may be of use to him, of black magic."

"...We, do you mean spare parts?"

Veronica gritted her teeth bitterly.

"Maybe there was something wrong with the sacrifices they prepared last night? That's why they needed spares, so they focused on the children from the orphanage."

Annan doesn't have any evidence, and now he can't find any of the parties involved, so he can only speculate out of thin air.

"Speaking of which, the people who attacked the orphanage were kind-hearted. They retreated after catching the people, but they didn't deal with the entire orphanage ruthlessly. Is it because they were in a hurry?"

Annan's heartless words naturally attracted an instinctive glare from Veronica.

"Now there will be no end to speculation, but this is the fact anyway.

The process is probably like last night, almost early in the morning, the orphanage was attacked. Your director stepped forward, but he was alone and could not protect all the children. He must have been injured during the resistance.

After taking care of his injuries and comforting the other good boys, he hurriedly wanted to contact you, but you had other important matters at the time and didn't notice his contact.

By the time you received the news, a long time had passed. At that time, the director of the orphanage accidentally lost control, and then we arrived. "

What Annan wants to say is not these known things.

What he wanted to tell Veronica was that there were other things that were more important, and the sorting process was just incidental.

"The kidnapped children from the orphanage have a chance to live."

There was a reason why Annan concluded so, but he could not tell the reason.

He had no choice but to pretend to be an inscrutable black magician and talk nonsense.

"Then, if the children from the orphanage are really still alive, they will most likely be discovered and rescued by the White Knight. By then, no matter what, your orphanage will be discovered...

If this is really the development, then maybe everything we are doing now is in vain? "
