There were a few birdsong in the green woods, and there were children in white clothes running on the grass not far away.

The mother with a kind smile bent down and touched the orange head that had been following her all the time, and bent the bristling hair on the head with her wide palm.

Isabella touched his face and asked, "What's the matter, Jim?"

Jim stretched out his hand and took Isabella's finger, "Mom, haven't we reached the orphanage yet?"

Isabella held his hand and walked forward, eyes half-bent, with a kind smile on her face, "It's almost here."

Emma was the first to find out that her mother had brought a newcomer, so she stopped fighting with Anna and the others.Since she knew the truth about the GF family, every time a new partner comes to her family, she will not be as happy as before. She is happy that there are new family members in the family.

They are all "food", innocently kept in captivity on the farm like Koni, food that is about to be eaten by "ghosts".

Norman, who was drying clothes, noticed that something was wrong with Emma, ​​and stepped forward to remind her, "Emma, ​​laugh."

Emma took a breath, and put a warm smile on her face again, and the dull hair on her curly short blond hair stood up as the owner's mood changed.

She ran a few steps quickly and gave Isabella a big hug, "Mom!"

Lei, who was sitting under the tree reading a book, saw Norman's worried expression, and said, "There is another newcomer, and Carol who just arrived is already the second one this month."

This is the GF House, where these orphans live.

The outside of the GF House is blocked by thick iron gates and fences. According to my mother, these are protective measures to prevent them from going out of the GF House and being in danger.

Some time ago, Kony of GF House was adopted. On the day Kony left, Emma found that the little rabbit that Kony had always liked had left in the room. Emma took the rabbit to chase Kony, who was taken by her mother to adopt her parents. .

She happened to run into Norman on her way out.

Norman, Emma, ​​Ray, they are the three oldest children in the GF family, they are already 11 years old.Not only are they the oldest of the children, but they are also the most intelligent.

Norman heard Emma say that Coney forgot to bring the rabbit, and was afraid that Emma, ​​who had always been reckless, would get lost, so he followed her to chase Coney.

Running across the grass, the iron gate that my mother said must not be approached was left open today.

Emma and Norman walked through the long corridor and saw the car in which Coney was sitting. When they lifted the curtain behind the car, they saw Coney who should have been happy to go to his adoptive parents' house to live a happy life——

--died.

She was lying in the back of the carriage, staring at Emma and Norman with her big eyes motionless. There was a long and seductive flower stuck on her chest. The petals of the flower were very red, and it was full of Koni's blood.

Hearing noises in the corridor, Norman took Emma to hide under the carriage, and saw two strange-looking monsters, talking about them as "food".

Lei was the third person who knew the truth about the Gf house. It wasn't Norman and Emma who told him. It was Lei himself who keenly discovered the anomalies of the two of them, followed them and heard their plot to escape from the GF house.

After Koni was sent away, her mother carried Carol back again, and the new nun Cronie who came to help with her.

The GF House, which was originally guarded by the mother alone, has an additional adult, which adds a lot of difficulty to their escape plan.

Not long after Carroll came, the GF family added another member.

Isabella pulled out Jim who was hiding behind her, "This is our new partner Jim, he is a bit shy, everyone should take good care of him."

The cheerful Dong was the first to respond, "I will take good care of my brother!"

Jim raised his head and secretly glanced at Dong, who had dark skin and a bright smile, and then quickly lowered his head.

Norman looked at the new Jim. He didn't look very big. He was about six years old. He had a sensitive personality and didn't dare to look at others.

Six years old, has reached the age of remembering things.

Norman and Ray looked at each other, wondering if this newcomer could remember the outside world.

This newcomer may be the breakthrough point for them to escape from GF's house.

Isabella smiled and pushed Jim, "Okay, let's go play with your friends."

Jim dawdled for a while, looked at the people around him, and quickly ran behind Norman, who looked the best in the crowd.

He pulled the corner of his clothes and looked up at the back of his head.

Norman was a little surprised by Jim's actions, and asked him softly, "Jim, what's the matter?"

Jim whispered, "You, you look the best."

Lei raised his eyebrows when he heard Jim's words. This newcomer seemed to be a face-controller.

Norman's eyes rolled when he heard this.He doesn't seem to be in good health, and he has his own rhythm in speaking and doing things. He looks slow and leisurely. With his white hair, Jim feels like an old man playing chess in the park.

Inexplicably reassuring him among a bunch of little kids, even though he is also an unscrupulous little kid.

Ray quipped, "Yo, the best looking Norman ever."

When Jim heard Ray speak suddenly, he was so scared that he hid behind Norman again. He stretched out his small head and secretly looked at the man whose eyes were half covered by bangs.

He pulled the corner of Norman's clothes and motioned him to lower his body. When he saw Norman bent over, he leaned forward and whispered in his ear, "Can he see the road clearly with one eye covered by his hair?"

After speaking, Jim covered his mouth, for fear that the fierce-looking one-eyed monster would hear.

Norman had never thought about this question, and he was a little curious when Jim asked him this question. Can Ray, who usually has one eye covered, see the road clearly?

Emma jumped over and asked lively, "What are you talking about?"

Jim suddenly pointed at Emma's head and said loudly, "Look, dumbass!"

Norman couldn't bear it anymore. He was always calm and was amused by the new Jim, not to mention Lei, who usually had a cold face. The corners of his mouth were raised, showing a small smile.

Emma rubbed Jim's face fiercely with her hands, "Don't you have stupid hair too?"

"Leave—Kay—Nest!"

His face was rubbed by Emma, ​​and his speech was slurred. Finally, he struggled out of Emma's clutches and ran behind Norman, who he thought was the most reliable.

He swears that he will be inseparable from the best-looking and most reliable Norman in the orphanage.

Games are a powerful tool to promote the relationship between children.

After playing hide-and-seek with the people from GF House a few times, Jim is almost familiar with him, and he is not as timid as before.

Emma and the three hid behind a tree to observe the newcomer who played hide-and-seek for three rounds as a "ghost".

When he was a "ghost", he could find almost all the children. After a game, he didn't pant at all, and his physical strength seemed to be stronger than Emma, ​​who had outstanding athletic ability.

Why does a person who looks only a few years old have such strong physical strength, and he has obviously practiced the moves of catching other children.

There are many mysteries about this newcomer.

"Norman, Ray, Emma, ​​don't you want to play together?" Sister Clooney suddenly appeared behind them.

She spun around cheerfully, her skirt showing a beautiful width, "I also want to play hide-and-seek with the children? Do you want to come together and let me be a ghost?"

Norman turned his head, "I'm a little tired, and I'm going to have dinner soon, I'll call them."

Croner touched her face regretfully, "Ah, that's such a pity."

On the second day after Sister Clogne came, Emma and the three of them agreed that Sister Clogne was a little abnormal.

She speaks loudly, always appears behind others in a mysterious way, and likes to make exaggerated and strange movements when she speaks.Especially when playing hide-and-seek with Sister Croner, her exaggerated smile really looks like a "ghost".

Norman called the children who were playing hide-and-seek to eat. Jim was a ghost a few times, and his body was covered in mud, even his face was stained a lot, and there were bruises on his knees.

He reluctantly took Jim to wash off the mud on his body.The soft towel gently wiped Jim's dirty face, and Norman asked casually, "Jim, how old are you?"

Jim stretched out his fingers and made a six, "I'm seven years old in three months!"

Sure enough, he guessed right.

"Does Jim remember the outside world?"

Jim was a little puzzled, "The outside world? I don't know what the outside world is."

With his big blue eyes open, he asked Norman curiously, "What is the outside world?"

Norman bowed his head and did not continue to ask meaningless questions. Jim's memory should have been cleared if nothing unexpected happened.

Norman smiled and shook his head, "Nothing."

He wiped the mud off Jim's body, and glanced at Jim's knee, where was the bruise just now?Did you read it wrong?

Jim shook the dazed Norman's hand, "It's time to eat, Jim is hungry."

Norman nodded, "Okay."

Today's dinner is a delicious multigrain rice, as well as thick egg roast and egg dumplings, and there are a few blueberries on the plate.

After the meal, Emma led Anna and they sang a welcome song to the new Jim. This is the tradition of the GF House. When a new partner comes, he must sing a welcome song.

Emma was a little absent-minded today, and she sang the wrong words when she sang.

Jim applauded loudly, and they were very appreciative of Emma's welcome song.Sister Croner propped her head up, smiling benevolently and strangely.

"What a cute kid."

Jim turned his head and saw Sister Clooney's smile and was so frightened that he burst into tears, and the originally happy welcome party was messed up.

"It's terrible, it's terrible."

"Sister Croner's smile is terrible."

"She looked like she was going to eat Jim."

"Sister Croner is going to eat Jim."

"She's going to eat Jim!!!"

Jim's crying was heartbreaking, and Norman noticed that Sister Croner's swarthy face became even darker, and standing in the dark, only white and shiny teeth could be seen.

Sister Croner is not very good-looking, with the corners of her mouth always raised and her hairy afro, she looks a bit like a clown written in a library book.

Her usual behavior is indeed very similar to a clown, and she often makes people laugh, making Norman feel that she is not very smart.

Jim finally finished crying. He was so powerful in fighting, and he didn't stop crying for half an hour.

After he finished crying, Norman took him to the bathroom to take a shower, wash his hair, and be a conscientious dad.

Isabella was afraid that Jim would not get used to it, and seeing him clinging to Norman, she put a new bed next to Norman's bed, where Jim slept.

After playing all day and crying so long at night, Jim fell asleep quickly.

Norman looked around and found that everyone was asleep, so he lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

He came to the better library with Emma and the others, not only they were there, Gilda and Dong were also there.

Emma said excitedly: "Let's tell them the truth!"

"What truth?" Dong asked.

Emma whispered to him what she had seen, including Coney's body.

Dong didn't believe what Emma said, thinking she was making up a story.

"It turns out that Emma has been restless recently after knowing about this incident."

These days, Emma behaved very strangely, and she was also mysterious when she was with Norman and the others, and she often didn't know what they were discussing when they were together.

Gilda noticed their anomaly, and now she knows that this anomaly comes from their knowing the cruel truth hidden under the warm appearance of GF House.

Dong has the best relationship with Kony in the entire GF family. He doesn’t believe that the crying baby, and Kony, who will come to see them in the future, is dead.

He thought of the suspicious point that he had subconsciously ignored before. People who left GF's house never came back, and they never even sent letters.

So they are dead?

Dong couldn't believe it and ran out of the library and GF's house. He wanted to go to the iron gate and see the truth in person.

Ray and Emma stop him, followed by Norman and Gilda.

Gilda advised him, "Dong, calm down."

"How do you tell me to calm down? I'm going to die! If what Emma said is true, if Coney is dead, we will die too."

Norman calmly said: "In order for us and others not to die, we must work hard to survive and leave this place with others."

"How to leave?!" Dong is not stupid, on the contrary, he is the smartest person in the GF House except for Emma and the three of them.

They have been told not to leave the place surrounded by the railings. When he was playing hide-and-seek, he sneaked to the end of the forest.

At the end is a towering wall, it is impossible to climb out!

And they have to escape with everyone, it is impossible to do this.

Emma suddenly said: "Hide and seek!"

Norman began to explain, "During this time, Emma and I were training other children to hide and seek. When we escaped, we would tell the other children that we were playing hide and seek. Using some of the training we did during hide and seek, after leaving the bars Surrounded by tall walls, and then leave this place completely."

He didn't explain it very clearly. That day, he and Emma left Coney's rabbit behind in fear at the door.

Mom was already a little suspicious. Someone went to the door that day, and specially asked Sister Croner to be her helper.

He had some doubts about the mother's eyeliner among the children, so he had to be more cautious in order not to expose the plan.

"That's how we can leave here?" Dong hesitated.

Emma said: "It must be possible."

Croner saw through the window that they seemed to be discussing something outside the door, and she moved a little closer, trying to hear what they said clearly.

An earth-shattering cry shocked Norman and the others who were discussing the escape strategy.

"There is a ghost!!"

"Sister Clooney is a ghost!!!"

Jim rolled on the ground and kept crying, and Cronie was at a loss. This Jim is here to punish her, right? !

Tears covered Jim's face, and he secretly glanced at Norman and the others who had already taken the opportunity to slip away.

This group of people didn't know what was going on, they were so careless in discussing escape, and their voices were so loud, was it because they were afraid that others would not know that they were going to escape? !

He is really tired, acting is so difficult, his throat hurts.
