I studied beheading in a mental institution

"Hmph, Kui Shen still remembers us. He hasn't called a single call for so many years. He thought he would never want to come back except to send money here every month."

The old man patted the iron filings on his hands, snorted coldly, turned around and walked into the courtyard.

Lin Qiye and others followed closely behind him.

"By the way, where's Boy Shen? Why didn't he come?"

"Oh, Shen Qingzhu is on a secret mission, and he can't get away." Lin Qiye replied without changing his face, and then quickly changed the subject, "What's your name?"

"My surname is Liu, and I'm the director of this private orphanage." The old man pushed his reading glasses.

Old man Liu led Lin Qiye and others through the narrow courtyard and into the only old-fashioned suite in the courtyard.

The house is not high, and for a young man like Lin Qiye, it looks a little cramped. The rough and old walls are carefully painted with light green paint, and red flowers are painted on it. Although it is dilapidated, But there is a kind of pure warmth.

As soon as he crossed the threshold, Lin Qiye saw three or four children hiding behind the door, looking at them curiously and fearfully. The older ones were twelve or thirteen years old, while the younger ones were only seven or eight years old.

They were wearing old-fashioned but very warm cotton-padded jackets, their complexions were rosy, and they looked very nourished.

There was only a little boy in the corner, who looked a little different. In this weather, he was only wearing a thin gray sweater, his complexion was a little pale, and he was also older than the other children.

"Back then, Boy Shen said he was going to be a soldier, but I still didn't believe it. With his bad temper, can he be a soldier? I think he will be kicked back by the instructor on the day he goes."

Old man Liu muttered as he walked:

"I didn't expect that he was really allowed to stay... Hey, what level is he in the army now?"

"It's a military officer." Lin Qiye replied after pondering for a moment, "I have made a lot of contributions, and this year I even brought in a class of recruits, and my prestige is very high."

Old man Liu turned a corner and walked into a small room, which looked like an office, but apart from a wooden table, a few benches, and a few thick stacks of newspapers in the corner, there was nothing else.

Old man Liu set up a bench for everyone, and sat down himself, grinning and saying:

"It's not bad, it didn't embarrass me as the dean."

"President Liu, how long has your orphanage been open?" Baili Pangpang looked around and couldn't help asking.

"It's been more than 30 years." Dean Liu unscrewed the thermos, blew a few shriveled goji berries floating on the water, and said leisurely,

"Don't look at me now, I was a well-known entrepreneur in Linjiang back then. I made a lot of money when I was in my 30s. Then I got seriously ill. I saw something clearly. I opened an orphanage myself. It can be regarded as doing good deeds and accumulating virtue.

At that time, Linjiang hadn't developed yet, and the place wasn't too far away. Later, high-rise buildings were built, and the number of people living in the vicinity became less and less, and gradually it became a small place that no one cared about.

It’s not my uncle, I’m bragging. In the past 30 years, there have been no more than 20 or [-] or [-] orphans who have gone out of my place. Boy Shen, I picked it up by the river [-] years ago. "

Lin Qiye nodded thoughtfully:

"By the way, what happened to the hooligan you just mentioned?"

"This place is old, so people will naturally pay attention to it. Isn't the Li Group going to start a real estate project here recently? They often send some gangsters to make trouble, but it doesn't matter. I'm not afraid of them, sir."

Old man Liu took a sip of tea and said calmly.

"They are bullying others! If Brother Qingzhu is here, which local ruffian would dare to come to our Dongtan Lane to make trouble?!"

The little girl in the red padded jacket who had been squatting at the door stood up immediately and said angrily.

"That is, when Brother Qingzhu is here, who dares to provoke us in the underworld in Linjiang? Brother Qingzhu directly knocked their teeth away!" The other children also responded one after another.

"Tsk, what kind of gangsters do you know about children? It's all caused by Boy Shen." Old man Liu glared at them.

"In this case, why don't you move away?" Cao Yuan asked doubtfully,

"This place is so old, it should be a good thing to change to a new environment? Is it the conditions they opened?"

"Not really." Old man Liu opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't speak.

"Understood."

Lin Qiye nodded, and gave Baili Pangpang beside him a look.

Baili Pangpang stood up and said with a smile, "You guys talk first, I'll go out and make a phone call."

After Baili Pangpang walked out of the house, Lin Qiye and others chatted for a while, the gloomy sky outside the window became darker and darker, there was a faint thunderbolt surging among the clouds, it seemed that a heavy rain was about to usher.

"Not good...it's going to rain again, and I haven't bought the food for dinner today."

Old man Liu frowned when he saw the changing sky outside the window, stood up hastily, picked up his umbrella and walked out the door.

"Shall we go for you?" Lin Qiye got up immediately.

"No, you young people don't know how to buy groceries... Listen to the uncle, you stay with this group of brats, have dinner together before leaving, and tell me well by the way, the Shen boys are standing in the camp." What did you do?"

As the rain fell, Old Man Liu held up his umbrella, pushed open the iron gate, and walked out quickly.

Inside the Hanshan Orphanage, only Lin Qiye and the children were left looking at each other.

Due to Jiang'er's special shape, it has been hidden in the stereo around Anqingyu's waist in a magnetic state, and the coffin itself is in the trunk outside the lane, so only Lin Qiye, Cao Yuan and Anqingyu three are left in the house. people.

Just when Lin Qiye was worrying about how to communicate with these children, Baili Pangpang waved to him from the window with his mobile phone in his hand:

"Qiye, come here."

Lin Qiye was startled, got up and walked out.

Cao Yuan's eyes swept over the immature children in front of him, he struggled for a long time, and he still tentatively said:

"you……"

All the children took a step back in unison, looking at Cao Yuan with fear in their eyes, especially the little girl, who almost cried out of fright.

"No, I'm not a bad person...I..."

Cao Yuan, who had a fierce face on his face, was pale and wanted to explain something, and the children quickly turned around and ran into another small room, as if they were avoiding some kind of scourge.

Cao Yuan: ...

An Qingyu stood up with a smile, patted Cao Yuan on the shoulder,

"Don't be discouraged, looks are something you are born with, but if you need this, I can give you the whole face when you go back..."

Under Cao Yuan's resentful gaze, An Qingyu followed the children into the small room, and soon there was the sound of the children being amused by giggling.

Cao Yuan let out a long sigh.

At this moment, his eyes met the only child in the corner who did not escape.
