The police directly sealed off the dean’s office on the fourth floor and the residence of the dean and his wife. A group of investigators entered the room to search for evidence, and another group of investigators, accompanied by the local child welfare agency, began to question all the children one by one. The government's child welfare agency temporarily took over the school, and Tang Sisi was brought back to the police station as a key witness.

Mrs. Francis was always by her side, as if she had fulfilled her duty as a guardian in advance.Accompanied by his wife, the police conducted a fruitless interrogation. Of course, this cannot be attributed to their interrogation methods. It can only be said that Tang Sisi, the person involved, really doesn't know anything...

When she followed Mrs. Francis out of the inquiry room, she happened to see the dean and his wife being escorted over. The two looked at Tang Sisi with cold eyes. If there was warmth in their eyes, they should be able to freeze her.

Mrs. Francis comforted the little girl who had just experienced a major setback: "May I take you to eat?"

Tang Sisi nodded.

At this moment, she succumbed to the body of a weak child, but what she was facing was the dirtiest thing in the world. She had no one to rely on, no relatives and no care. It was inevitable that she would have some real feelings for Mrs. Francis.

Recalling this way, when she traveled through the first world, although she faced many difficulties, such as the pursuit of the police and the threat of gangsters, there was an indestructible layer of Shen Ming between those disasters and her, and she hadn't had time to feel fear. , Shen Ming was so angry that he died, and he traveled back in a huff...

In the second world, Shen Ming was the first to see Shen Ming in the dangerous situation several times, and then he fell from the sky in less than a few hours and rescued himself who was kidnapped. As long as she comes up with an idea, he has a way to turn it into reality...

Shen Ming is like the red mushroom in Super Mario, the injury-free special effect in Contra, and the lawn mower in Plants vs. Zombies. It is her ultimate insurance against the world after time travel.

But this time, she had already spent 14 long hours alone in this oppressive and hopeless orphanage. The indescribable sense of loneliness came out with the indifferent eyes of the dean and his wife, and she experienced it for the first time. The fear and powerlessness of people in another world.

Tang Sisi threw herself into Mrs. Francis' arms: "I want to eat ice cream..."

Mrs. Francis stroked her hair slowly: "Okay, let's go eat ice cream."

In the interrogation room, Russell sat opposite Mrs. Brown.

He pushed a stack of photos in front of Mrs. Brown: "Do you know these children?"

Mrs. Brown looked at the photos one by one, then nodded: "Yes, they are all children from my orphanage."

"These 26 children all died in accidents."

Mrs. Brown leaned back in her chair, showing an indifferent expression: "Do you want to say that their deaths are related to me? Then, sir, you should find out how high the death rate in other orphanages is. I can only tell you , The death of these 26 children is very regrettable. But the accidental death rate of children in our hospital is far lower than that of other orphanages, at least three percentage points lower than the average."

Mrs. Brown tapped on the table, a little excited: "These three percentage points are the result of all the teachers in the orphanage and me working hard day and night. I have tried my best to let every child live under our protection every minute and every second, but still It is inevitable that some children will encounter accidents, this is fate."

She then tweeted the photo back to Russell: "I have a clear conscience about that."

At this moment, someone knocked on the door of the interrogation room.

Henry opened the door and came in: "Russell, please come out."

Russell nodded to Mrs. Brown, got up and left, and closed the door of the interrogation room.

Henry took a deep breath, and showed him the DNA test sheet that had just been printed: "The blood DNA test results in the fountain came out, not only matching Leah's DNA, but also—"

Henry glanced at Russell, pointed to the report and said, "And it also linked to a girl in the missing persons database called Ovira, to be precise, this Ovira who disappeared 29 years ago is Leah's mother. "

Hearing this, Russell frowned: "The girl who disappeared 29 years ago became the mother of an orphan killed today? It is a difficult thing to do."

Henry shook his head: "More than that—" His face twisted, "This Olvera's surname is Claire."

Russell tilted his head, obviously not understanding what was so strange about the "Claire" he said.

At this moment, Greg came over from the end of the corridor, stopped in front of the two and whispered, "Who is that in the reception room? Did I see Wendy Claire just now?"

Russell quickly scanned the DNA report: "Who is that?"

"The legendary businessman in Las Vegas!" Greg was very excited when he mentioned this, "When Las Vegas was first established, there were many casinos in the city, and a large amount of chips and cash were transported every day. There are as many robbers as there are wolves around the flock. Afterwards, Wendy Claire established the first escort company in Las Vegas. At that time, almost all casinos were his customers. Now the Claire family also owns the largest lv Security companies with operations as far overseas as their mercenaries are stationed in the Middle East and Africa."

The three followed Greg's guidance and looked towards the reception room, where the sheriff was coming out.

The sheriff walked straight to Russell: "Leah is directly related to the missing young daughter of the Claire family, and now Wendy Claire is in that room." He raised his right hand and gestured for a gun, pointing at his temple, "He looks like that Like they were going to shoot me on the spot."

Russell nodded and followed him into the reception room.

Sitting on the sofa was a rather aged old man, wearing a well-fitting suit and carrying a black hardwood cane in his hand. Seeing Russell entering the door, the young man behind the old man nodded first.

"Hello, is there any news about my sister?"

Russell sat opposite him: "The case is still under investigation, can I ask you how your sister, that is, Olvera, disappeared back then?"

The young man nodded and said: "My sister was kidnapped. At that time, our whole family went to live in the villa on Dulude Mountain, and I was the only one... because I remembered that there was a cherry tree ripening behind the mountain, and I wanted to pick the fruit, but that The tree was very tall, and our parents didn't allow us to climb it, so she and I separated the bodyguards and went secretly to pick cherries."

He was silent for a moment, and his voice was lower than before: "When we were crossing the mountain road, suddenly a car stopped on the road, they took Ovira away, and they also wanted to take me, but I ran very fast, I'm sorry I should have..."

Wendy interrupted his memory with a long sigh: "You were only 12 years old at that time, and you were also a child."

Russell: "Ovira was only nine years old when she disappeared?"

Wendy: "Yes."

Russell glanced back at Greg behind him—Ovira disappeared at the age of nine, and Leah was 16 years old this year, which means that she gave birth to Leah at the age of 13 after she was controlled for four years.

But after all, too much time has passed, coupled with the technical and conceptual problems of the year, so the case of Olvera's disappearance did not leave many useful clues.According to the records of the orphanage, the newly born Leah was abandoned in front of the orphanage 16 years ago without any identity information on her body, and her birth record could not be found in the surrounding hospitals.

Wendy hit the ground heavily with her cane: "Whether my daughter is dead or alive, you must return her to me, and the person who did all of this must pay the price!"

Russell understood the father's mentality, and after briefing the case, he left the reception room, but the young Claire chased him out.

"Officer!" The young man sighed and asked, "Although my father doesn't care too much...but I still want to know about my sister's daughter, Liya, do you have any clues about her, how has she been in the past ten years? OK?"

"Hmm..." Russell thought for a while, "The case is still being solved. I can't tell you the details of the case. As for how Liya has been in the past ten years, maybe you can go to the Saint Xiu'an Orphanage to find out."

The young man was stunned when he heard the name: "Saint Xiu'an? That should be the best orphanage in LV, we donate money to it every year, and I didn't even know that Ovira's daughter was there."

----

"Saint Xiu'an is the best orphanage in lv, and such a thing will never happen."

"There must be some misunderstanding here."

"That little girl named Vivienne is not trustworthy at all, you don't know what kind of little liar she is!"

Facing the shouts one after another in the lobby of the police station, Nick couldn't help being confused. He grabbed Finley who was calming the crowd.

Nick: "What's going on here? Where did these people come from?"

Finley: "Mostly long-term volunteers from the orphanage, and some foster families, came to protest that we detained the dean and his wife."

"But Leah's underwear did detect traces of the dean's husband's semen, which is enough for us to detain him."

Finley pouted and shook his head: "But that's just indirect evidence. If we want to convict, we need direct evidence or his confession. And do you know? That little girl named Vivienne has a criminal record!"

Nick couldn't believe it: "She's only 12 years old, she's still autistic, how could she have a criminal record?"

Finley clicked his tongue: "There are still many things that make you unbelievable. It is a thick case record. Because it involves minors, we have spent a lot of effort to obtain permission from the prosecutor to inquire about the files. .”

At this moment, in the adjacent reception room, two men and two women were sitting opposite Sarah, who were representatives of the protesters downstairs, and in front of her was a criminal record that had been unsealed on a small scale.

Vivienne has been stealing supermarkets and clothing stores nearby with the older children in the orphanage since she was seven years old. She added a new problem when she was about ten years old—stealing cats and dogs from nearby people, and then killing them in various ways. , The means are quite violent and cruel, and as time goes by, the volume of animals she kills is getting bigger and bigger.

One of the representatives said: "That girl named Vivian, no, you can't call her a girl, don't look at her childish and innocent appearance, there is definitely a devil living in her heart!"

Another said: "Do you know why she was given up by three adoptive families?"
