Strange talk live room

The light of the oil lamp was dim.

The bottom of the lamp holder was painted with a layer of red paint, like a mark.

It must have been painted for a long time, and some of the paint has peeled off.

red!

Teacher Jiang specifically reminded me to be careful about the color red.

The bottom of the oil lamp Sister Wang gave me happened to be red.

She also specially left the oil lamp for me and told me not to turn it off.

The reason was very kind, as he was worried that I would be alone in the dark.

But is she that kind person?

If I am not allowed to turn off the lights, I will turn them off. I must not let her lead me.

I lift the lampshade.

The faint smell of burning wicks and a strange odor wafted out at the same time.

I've smelled this stench more than once.

Corpse oil.

Why use corpse oil to light lamps in places where ghosts gather?

Maybe this is a danger sign.

Without hesitation, I blew out the lamp.

Covering the lampshade, the smell of corpse oil quickly faded away.

There was darkness inside and outside the room.

I sat on the cold iron bed, pondering the implications of this extra mission.

Why do orphanages exist?

The reason why ordinary orphanages exist is, of course, to take in orphans.

But this is not the real world, but the land of souls.

This orphanage adopts a group of little ghosts.

I remembered "during the day", when I first arrived at the office, Teacher Yang expressed dissatisfaction with my arrival.

Teacher Jiang mentioned the purpose of the orphanage, and she was acting according to the instructions of the old director.

Could it be that the old director is the founder of this orphanage?

Maybe by finding out his identity and background, we can figure out the reason for the existence of this orphanage.

Thinking of this, I immediately put on my clothes and took out my mobile phone in the live broadcast room.

"Is the detective here?" I looked for Su Sen's ID in the barrage.

Soon, he had a reply.

Second-rate detective: "Tell me, what are you going to investigate this time?"

I was overjoyed: "I didn't expect you to be here."

Second-rate detective: "Just watching the movie once a week helps me understand more about the other side of the world and better investigate special cases."

"Then I won't bother you anymore. I want the information about the founder of the Love Orphanage in real life. The sooner the better! I don't have much time."

Second-rate detective: "This is not difficult, but it will take some time to organize and summarize. I will try my best to give it to you within an hour."

"Okay, then I'll find a chance to check my phone in an hour."

I put away my phone and stood up from the bed.

Of course I won't wait and do nothing during this hour.

Now that the adults are closing their doors to hide from monsters, I can just go upstairs to find out the situation from the children.

Let Li Xiaohei ride on my shoulders and cover my eyes with his hands.

The dark surroundings suddenly became clear.

I opened the door gently.

There was not a single shadow in the empty playground, and all the lights were turned off.

There was silence.

I went out quietly, walked along the wall, and quietly reached the stairs under the cover of darkness.

The process went smoothly and no one noticed.

I went upstairs in one go.

There are also four rooms upstairs, two of which are children's bedrooms, and the other two are used to store sundries.

Although it is already dark, it is actually lunch break time.

The bedroom door was locked from the outside.

It was quiet inside, without a sound.

I walked to the window of the first dormitory, pressed my face against the glass, and looked inside through Xiao Hei's eyes.

Because there is an old window between them, the view is blurry.

You can vaguely see a child lying quietly on each small bed.

The children seemed to be sleeping very hard, their bodies were motionless and stretched straight.

Xiaohu is much taller than the other children. Even if his vision is blurred and they are covered with quilts, it is easy to recognize them.

He is not the first dormitory.

I moved to the second room.

With his face pressed against the glass, he carefully looked inside using Xiao Hei's field of vision.

Several children inside also slept in straight postures, as if they were in fear all the time and could not relax even when sleeping.

But the small bed closest to the window was empty.

Xiaohu didn't sleep at all.

The dormitory door was locked and he couldn't get out. He must be hiding in a corner.

I adjusted the angle by the window and looked for his figure.

"Woo."

But Xiaohu was not found, and instead a child's cry sounded in the dormitory.

There was a child on a small bed, huddled under the quilt, trembling and crying in fear.

Immediately afterwards, a taller child quickly crawled out from under the empty bed. It was Xiaohu.

Xiaohu held the crying child tightly in his arms, as if to comfort him, and then looked at the window with fear and anger.

The other two children also suddenly opened the quilt and fell to Xiaohu's side.

The children hugged each other and huddled together.

He looked extremely frightened.

I was stunned for a moment.

Could it be that they weren't asleep at all and the way I looked in the window was so weird that it scared them?

Outside the dark window, there was a strange shadow sticking to the glass, watching him sleep.

Who is not afraid of this scene?

No wonder those children were all sleeping upright, they were just pretending to sleep.

"Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person, I'm the new uncle." I knocked on the window lightly, trying to explain.

But through the glass, they couldn't hear clearly, and they were even more frightened.

I can't be too loud, otherwise it won't be good if I disturb the teacher below.

Although the dormitory door was locked, the window only had a latch. I pulled the latch and gently pushed the window open.

"ah"

The children jumped out of bed in fear and retreated in panic. One of them almost screamed, but Xiaohu covered his mouth.

Xiaohu opened his hand to block his brothers behind him, and held a wood-carved knife in his other hand.

The tip of the knife was sharpened and pointed tightly at me.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not a bad person."

I explained aloud before climbing through the window.

To prevent the children from being too frightened and making too much noise in a panic, attracting the attention of those downstairs.

"Who are you? If you dare to eat us, I will kill you!"

Xiaohu stretched out his hand, pointed the tip of the knife at me, and said viciously in a low voice.

Despite his ferocious posture, his trembling voice betrayed him.

"I am the new uncle. This is my child. We were just taken in by the orphanage today."

I pulled Li Xiaohei off my shoulders, held him in my arms, and gave the children a friendly smile.

"newcomer?"

I couldn't see Xiaohu's expression clearly in the darkness, but I could hear the caution in his tone.

"You are with them!"

"Get away!"

"If you dare to come here, I will kill you!"

Xiaohu brandished the knife and made a bluff threat in his voice.

The other three little ones hid behind him fearfully, all covering their mouths with their hands to prevent themselves from making any sound.

They seemed more afraid of making noise than I was.
