"Even without asking, the answer is obvious."

Sounds coming from nowhere hit Atobe Kagezawa's ears bit by bit.

He held his breath and reduced the movement of his body to a minimum. At the same time, he pressed the door that had not yet been closed with his backhand. In the dim light, his eyes pierced into the deepest part of the room. He indeed heard a discordant sound.

A little bit, like breathing.

He pursed his moist lips, his eyes became cautious, and his light steps hit the floor. He raised his hand to press down the "gilded shadow" hidden under the cloak, and put his thumb on the handle of the knife. superior.

With this movement, it only takes a moment for "Luoying" to be unsheathed.

The whole picture of the back room gradually came into view. As expected, it was also filled with rusty iron cages.

……

child?

Atobe Keizawa was confused for a moment, how could there be a child?

Without enough time to be surprised, Atobe Kageze took back the hand that was pressing down on "Liu Ying" and made a comforting gesture forward. He put the index finger of one hand on his lips and mouthed "Shh".

Surprisingly, the child didn't make a sound, and Atobe Keizawa slowly approached him with a breath.

As long as the target is not exposed, everything will be easy to handle. It would be too embarrassing to say that the target was exposed by a child.

He squatted down and tried to keep his eyes level with the child in the cage. When he relaxed and took a look, a sultry fire rushed into his heart uncontrollably.

...is a child with magical powers.

Atobe Kagezawa gritted his teeth subconsciously. The child in front of him was only six or seven years old. He was only wearing a large white T-shirt that didn't fit. It was obviously an old thing belonging to an adult. The exposed arm was also blue and purple, and his silver-white hair was It looked gray in the dark.

He is horribly thin and may actually be a little older than he looks.

"Kid, you..."

The words just reached my lips and stopped abruptly. What should I ask? How old are you? what's your name? Do you remember how you got here? Where are your parents?

...The child who appeared in the iron cage of the Curse Research Institute, the answer was obvious even if he didn't ask.

The scene was at a stalemate for a while, and the expression of the child in the cage gradually changed from calm to confused. He tilted his head, blinked, and stretched out his small hand to grab the rusty iron cage.

The door of the iron cage was not closed, and a gap opened with the child's slightest touch. He did not let go, and his blood-red eyes were still looking at the man outside the cage doubtfully.

Taking a deep breath, Atobe Keizawa reluctantly suppressed his messy thoughts. Before coming in, he fully understood that he would encounter many things that cut off humanity, and he also did a lot of psychological construction for himself, but once he actually encountered it When the time comes, no amount of psychological construction will be in vain.

He was still angry.

The door of the iron cage opened a corner. Atobe Kagezawa slowly opened the door completely and extended his left hand to the child. Although it was inappropriate, he still wanted to do it.

"Are you coming out?" Atobe Kagezawa asked in a soft voice.

The child said nothing, looking at the big hand in front of him, as if it took him a long time to understand what the other person meant. He carefully stretched out his hand, and then grabbed the tip of the middle finger of a man he had never seen before.

The long-term diving made Atobe Keizawa's body temperature lower than usual, but the child's hands were even colder, like ice slag. He didn't know how long he had been locked up. Maybe it was due to the power of the spell, but luckily he didn't. Get ill.

Maybe he was arrested because of his magical power, but he was able to survive until now because of his magical power, which is ironic.

Atobe Kagezawa's broad palm wrapped the child's hand and gently took him out of the cage little by little.

He took off his cloak, took off his own coat and put it on the child. The child cooperated horribly throughout the process. He put the cloak on the ground and put the child in his arms.

Anyway, I need to find a place to hide until eleven o'clock, and this storage room is not an option.

"Kid, what's your name?"

"..."

The well-behaved child did not respond, but just watched quietly, realizing that he might not be very good at talking, but Atobe Keizawa had no intention of stopping and continuing to ask.

He gathered up his thin clothes and checked the wounds on the child. Although there were many bruises, there were no signs of fractures. Most of them were just skin injuries. Atobe Jingze regretted not carrying the wounds with him. Medication Habit.

Fortunately, the wound was not fatal, and he could be cured immediately as long as the glass was removed.

"My name is Atobe Keizawa. If you don't speak, can I call you Xiaobai for now?"

"..."

"How long have you been here?"

"..."

Atobe Kagezawa was helpless. The child looked extremely immature, and his big round eyes looked cute and smart. Compared with the dead environment, he seemed so out of place.

Everything was fine except that he didn't talk, but Atobe Keizawa made up his mind to take him out. Now there was no one around and nothing to do, so he told him in detail what was going on outside.

"I have a friend whose hair color is exactly the same as yours, also white." He rubbed the child's head and told him with a smile.

The child didn't respond, but his eyes showed seriousness, and Atobe Keizawa didn't feel bored when he talked to himself.

"It's just that the eyes are different colors. Yours is dark red, and his is the color of the sky."

"The color of the sky is that clear blue, very beautiful."

"Ah, do you know what color your eyes are?" Atobe Keizawa relaxed a little and held his hand, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and confirmed that his current position was far away from the door.

"Wait a minute. Although the light is not clear, I can barely take a picture of you. There is no one around now. Let's quietly turn on a small flash."

Atobe Keizawa pointed the phone at the child in his arms. The phone, which had been muted in advance, did not make any sound and quietly completed the task of taking pictures.

He put the screen in front of the child. The child in the photo was skinny, and his blood-red eyes became more intense in the dark night. He tilted his head and opened his eyes curiously. In addition, half of Kagezawa Atobe was exposed in the photo. Face.

"Look, this is what you look like, isn't it cute?"

The child's body temperature gradually rose a little, and he kept chattering for more than half an hour, and the time gradually approached eleven o'clock.

Sure enough, footsteps came from the corridor, from far to near. Atobe Kagezawa held his breath and silently counted the number of footsteps. He quietly breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that all six people had returned to the first floor.

After waiting for another half an hour, the time on his phone showed half past eleven. He stood up and placed the child at the door of the iron cage. He squatted down and whispered: "Child, I heard from my brother that now he has to go to the third floor for a medical examination." One thing, you can wait for me here in my brother’s clothes, and I’ll pick you up when my brother comes downstairs, okay?”

"..."

"If you understand, just nod."

At this time, the child nodded slightly, pursed his lips, and showed a tiny smile. Atobe Kagezawa smiled in surprise.

"Be good, don't leave here, you know? It won't be too long."

The word "leave" seemed to trigger a switch. The little hand in Atobe Jingze's palm trembled, and Atobe Jingze felt it.

The strange thing is that the doubts on the child's face are getting deeper and deeper. Atobe Keizawa thought he didn't understand, so he explained in a warm voice again: "Be good here, brother. When I come down, I will take you outside to see Look at the sky and go meet my brother’s friends, okay?”

"..."

He put his forehead against the child's dirty forehead, held the back of his head with one hand, and said cautiously: "Brother, I know you understand. No matter what happens, don't leave here. Wait until I come back to find you. We have made an appointment." .”

After receiving the child's response, Atobe Keizawa became more eager to complete the task.

Time has been delayed for too long, and the outside has long returned to silence. The researcher must have fallen asleep, and now is a good time.

Atobe Kagezawa settled the skinny child, darted out like a light cat, and headed straight to the second floor in the dim light without looking back.
