On how to save the world by defeating the protagonist

Chapter 407 She is still the girl from before

On the deserted bus, looking at the girl sitting by the window with her eyes closed, Ah Qiong suddenly realized that maybe he had never had a deep understanding of this girl, but he had already decided to be with her for the rest of his life.

In those previous experiences, she did know that the other party talked a lot, but she didn't even know that the other party would skip class so simply.

"There's still class in the afternoon, so you just left?" Seeing Tong Lu skillfully collecting her bags in the big classroom, she always felt that something was wrong: "But, I remember that there seems to be something called 'sign in' in the university courses." Things, if you don't sign in on time, you will easily fail the exam at the end of the semester..."

"It doesn't matter once in a while. The person in charge of registration is Ke Li. Just ask her to make up for it when the time comes." However, Tong Lu, who had always been steady, didn't care this time. He just led her and ran outside the school. After a full five After taking a bus, I got on this old bus bound for the suburbs with only a few passengers.

Even the seats are of different heights and are not side by side, so it can't be seen that there are not many people.

To be honest, getting on this bus with not many people and seeing it driving more and more remote, even if you are a god, you can't help but feel a little nervous;
"Where are we going?" After spending an hour, she finally couldn't help asking: "It seems that we are almost at the bus station. Do you want to take me out of the city? Where are we going?"

"Here, it's the one in front." Opening her eyes, Tong Lu patted the nervous little hands of the people around her, and without looking back, she just pointed to a place not far from the next stop, which looked like an abandoned hospital and looked like a dilapidated kindergarten: "We've arrived .”

"Welcome to the Sacred Heart Welfare Home, my real home."

Orphanage?Ah Qin, who had just gotten out of the car, didn't know what this special institution of human society was until she was led by someone through the green belt on the side of the road, passing by each one that was simple and dirty, but very popular. In the vegetable market, after passing a dilapidated and rusty iron door, she finally saw clearly:

The old building in front of me is so poor and backward; and the hunchbacked and kind figure standing in front of the building, who keeps looking out, bears such a brilliant human glory.

"Tong Lu, is Tong Lu back?" Holding up her reading glasses, the 60-year-old mother with gray temples was standing at the door, stroking and kneading, and finally confirmed that the person in front of her was The child I miss day and night: "Didn't you say don't waste that car money? How nice are you to buy something to eat for these two dollars!"

"Look at you, you're all skinny." Sighing, the nanny said caring words, while holding the hand of the person in front of her and about to lead him into the house, she was so dazed that she didn't even see the main god on one side: "Hurry up!" , if those little brats know that you are back, they will be very happy..."

"Mommy, I brought someone back, why didn't you ask?" Smiling and patted the old man on the back, Tong Lu pulled Ah Qiong over and began to introduce: "This is my lover. I just want you to meet her;"

"I'll go to the kitchen to help first. On your two sides, Mammy will help me to talk with others first, okay?" She gave the person in front of her an apologetic wink, stepped back, and slipped into the kitchen In a short while, all kinds of children's surprise voices sounded in the kitchen.

That's right, before this person walked out of the school gate, he did bring a big bag of candy.Biting her lower lip, Ah Qiong looked at the prematurely aging nanny in front of her. She was almost suffocated by a strange feeling; but compared to her, the old nanny was obviously much calmer:
"Ah, it's not a guest who wants to adopt a child, but is my child brought back to meet the family?" He raised his glasses, silently looked up and down at the person in front of him, and when he saw the bulging front of his clothes, he seemed a little small Satisfied: "Hey, why is it a girl?"

"However, a girl is a girl, and her heart can be softer." Turning around and walking unsteadily, she still invited people into the room very politely: "It's cold outside, you come in and hide first." Hide away and have a sip of hot tea."

Nodding, Ah Qiang silently followed the old man who looked light but had a heavy shadow into the house.

After sitting down on the pony, holding a dented enamel cup, she finally saw the river that had troubled the other party for 20 years: just as the other party described it, it was a river that was always full of children, always chattering and noisy. A place that is noisy and will never have hope and vitality.

Everything here is not for ordinary people.Including the old stove, those orphans lying at the door poking their heads out to peek at this stranger, and the donated clothes that don't fit on those orphans; even the old nun in front of me is like that The old and frail posture makes it difficult for people to associate it with a normal 60-year-old middle-aged person.

"You're here to take away our Tonglu, right?" Ah Qin originally thought that such a depressing atmosphere was already uncomfortable, but he didn't expect that in this awkward silence, the other party would actually take the initiative to speak:
"Don't be too surprised, since that child said that I would tell you about her past, then I'll talk to you." Taking a sip of tea, Mammy pointed to a yellowed enlarged group photo on the wall, and began Describe in a storytelling tone: "See that? That's the first photo of all of us together;"

"You can take any child away, except Tonglu, she can't follow you."

For the next half an hour, the stooped old man kept repeating how deeply the rescuer had a close relationship with this orphanage, how good his relationship with himself was, and how much he couldn't let go of this place:
"That child was born to be the savior of the entire orphanage. She is my heir. She must stay here in the future and be the next nun." She said this firmly, judging from her tone of voice, it seemed that she was the one who asked Tong Lu to stay. Persistence throughout her life; but throughout the conversation, she refused to look up.

Maybe subconsciously, even this nanny thinks it's unreasonable for her to forcibly keep someone in such a crappy place?The attitude of the person in front of her gave Ah Qiong a guess. She tilted her neck and fixedly looked at the old man in front of her:
"However, you also know that Tong Lu can run now if she wants to, right?"

"After all, she has already gone to college. For a small orphanage like yours, which is not rich, it should be an expense that can be omitted. If you just treat her as an heir to train; but you still let her go to college without hesitation. , get an education, so that..."

"In this case, do you actually already know that it is despicable to use the family card to keep someone?" A Qin's straightforwardness surprised her. She was surprised by the other party's ruthless exposure and wanted to retort. , I feel sorry for my conscience.

Grasping the cross on her chest, Mammy finally sighed: "As expected of the lover Tong Lu brought home for the first time, she immediately saw a way out for her, and also immediately saw my despicableness;"

"As you said, although I am doing the work of helping orphans, I am actually a selfish ghost who wants to sacrifice a young girl's bright future to save himself!"

"However, no matter what you say now, it's already too late." Slightly lowered her eyelids, a tear ran across her wrinkled face: "The moment Tong Lu brought you back here, I knew, She is still the good, kind and gentle child from before; "

"It is precisely because she is so kind, understands the sadness of the orphanage and our plight, that she is willing to take the initiative to be trapped in this mess. So give up, you can't take her away. If you can't take this away, I have already A child who is pulled into the abyss and bound by his conscience." After speaking, Mammy lifted her apron and wiped her face:

"The sweetness you have now is only for a while. If you really like Tong Lu, then you can visit her more before you get tired of it; when you get impatient, you can also leave something for this orphanage. , leave a thought for that child."

"We won't be separated, so why would we need any unnecessary thoughts?" Just as the nanny was speaking sadly, a figure pushed the door in: Tong Lu had gotten rid of the group of children at some point, and now I am taking a notebook to write and draw:

"Mommy, I'm sorry, I have to leave." She walked over gently and kissed her tenderly on her old forehead: "But before that, I have thought of a way to settle everyone once and for all; "

"This is the wish list of all the children, and now it's up to you;" Raising the note in her hand, she smiled slightly: "Can you please tell me, if you want to transform this orphanage into a well-equipped and What is the maximum budget required for a fully functioning child welfare center?"
