There are two underground floors in the west building of the orphanage. The first floor is a semi-underground storage room, an electrical and mechanical room and a comprehensive classroom. The second floor has an underground passage leading to the east building and many old structures that have been abandoned.
The history of this orphanage is so long that even the east and west buildings, which can be considered "new buildings", are actually decades old, and the deepest and oldest parts of these two buildings are
Even the "parents" of the orphanage rarely set foot there.
Little Red Riding Hood only remembered that when she was very young, she was taken to the underground of the West Building twice by several half-year-old children. At that time, the place was already this dirty, old and forgotten appearance. Now it has been more than ten years.
In the past, nothing seems to have changed here. Those dirty cement floors and mottled walls even give people the feeling that they were like this from the beginning, when they were first built. When the building collapsed
It will still be the case.
But Little Red Riding Hood knows that every part of this building actually has minimal maintenance, including these seemingly forgotten corners. Volunteers sent by the council will regularly inspect all facilities of the orphanage and repair the electricity.
And the water supply and drainage system - adults take care of the children here to the best of their ability, so if there are really strange changes in these old passages under the West Building, it must have attracted the attention of the staff.
After all, the "volunteers" who can be sent here must have received specialized training.
Since there are no reports in this regard, it means that the change occurred recently - at least during the routine inspection a while ago, everything should have been normal here.
"Mouse...cockroach...oh, not even an ant," the "King" squatted on the shoulders of the heavy-armored mercenary. He looked lazy, but his feline vertical pupils seemed to have been "scanned" repeatedly.
"Smell it with your good nose, Little Red Riding Hood, there is a musty smell in the air here, but except for this musty smell... the other smells are too 'clean'."
The shadowy wolf appeared in the shadow beside Little Red Riding Hood. She frowned slightly and glanced at the mottled and moldy corners of the underground passage: "Were there rats here before?"
"What nonsense - of course there is," the king raised his head and glanced at Little Red Riding Hood, as if looking at a fool, "rats and cockroaches are the best things in the world that know how to survive. They will not become extinct even if all the people die - this place I
I have been here many times and it was very lively before.”
Little Red Riding Hood did not say a word, but looked solemnly at this seemingly normal place. The phantoms of the wolves appeared and disappeared in the air beside her, making uneasy whimpering sounds from time to time.
"Let's go ahead," she suddenly said to the king, "and check out the connecting passage between the east tower and the west tower."
"good."
…
A heavily armed action team quietly passed through the shadows between the buildings and gradually approached the unremarkable-looking building in front of them.
This place is located on the edge of the old factory area of ​​the southern old city. Most of the nearby buildings are old residential buildings built thirty or forty years ago. At this time on weekdays, there are always many people walking around outdoors in and outside the residential area, but today this area is strangely...
Quiet--
People seemed to be driven away from the streets by some invisible force. Even if someone at a distant intersection occasionally glanced this way and saw the foreign vehicles parked at the entrance of the community and the weird devices standing in the open space, they would quickly and quickly
Shift your gaze naturally, as if the entire area has "disappeared" from people's "attention".
A Secret Service commander in black uniform stood next to the mobile "node" device at the entrance of the community. He raised his head and glanced at the target building not far away - a six-story old building with white walls and blue roof, which was quite eye-catching under the blue sky.
, at this moment, there are several inconspicuous-looking "birds" hovering around the outer wall of the building, approaching a window on the third floor from time to time, and the action team that came out has already penetrated into the building.
Inside, they were reporting the situation ahead through the intercom.
"This is the 'Hunter'. We have arrived at the predetermined floor. The surrounding environment is stable and we are waiting for the next order."
A report from the action team came through the earphones. The on-site commander ordered them to stand by, and then looked to the side.
A young Secret Service agent was lowering his head slightly, sensing the vision coming from those "flying birds".
"Can you confirm the situation in the house?" the on-site commander asked.
A little bird landed lightly on the window sill on the third floor of the target building and looked into the room.
"You can't see the room, but you can feel the residual spiritual fluctuations. There is indeed extraordinary power in the target room," the young operator said quickly, "...Further perception is blocked, and the specific location of the person cannot be determined. It should be
Interference set up.”
"A classic trick of cultists," the on-site commander twitched. "Just make sure they are there...'Hunter', prepare to break the door."
"yes!"
…
The urgent ringtone of the phone suddenly rang, interrupting Song Cheng's work at hand. He reached out to pick up the phone, and at the same time glanced at the incoming call notification, his expression immediately became serious.
"Hey, it's me - how's it going?"
A fast-speaking report came from the receiver, and the next moment, Song Chengcheng stood up directly from behind the table.
"What does 'all dead' mean? Please tell me clearly - are all the victims captured by the Angel Cultists dead? Were innocent people sacrificed at the scene? Or were they the original residents of the residential building..."
The on-site commander on the other side of the phone said a few words in a hurried tone, and Song Cheng's expression gradually became stiff.
"...All the TM cultists are dead?!"
…
Yu Sheng was sitting on the balcony on the second floor of the east building, looking through the window at the children doing outdoor activities on the playground. He saw a group of children led by half-grown children running around the yard, shouting and screaming.
A smile gradually appeared on his face.
The feeling was very subtle, but he could indeed feel that a subtle "connection" had been established between himself and these children. He could even vaguely feel the happy and carefree voices coming from the playground.
Feeling.
Just like the clear sky now.
"That's great." Irene climbed up to the window sill from the side and looked at the scene on the playground outside with Yu Sheng. The little doll's tone was filled with emotion, "Children's happiness is simplicity. If they can not be full of satisfaction,
It would be better if the yard chases me."
"They like you very much," Yu Sheng looked at the resentful little doll happily, "I saw it in the classroom just now. There are two little girls who want to help you comb your hair, right?"
It was okay if he didn't say this. When he said it, Irene almost fell off the window sill: "Damn it, don't mention such a terrible thing! I saw them pulling off a doll's head and combing her hair! It scared me to death.
Alright?"
Hu Li was also standing next to her, with a thoughtful expression on her face since just now. At this time, she suddenly broke the silence: "In this way, all the children in this orphanage will be affected by the benefactor witch."
It’s protected by blood art, right?”
"That's right," Eileen sat on the window sill and swung her legs, "the more than seventy children in the entire courtyard are all in Yu Sheng's hands now..."
Yu Sheng immediately glared at the doll: "Can't you use nice words? What do you mean it all 'falls' into my hands?!"
This book was last updated in ##!! Updated!
Hu Li ignored Irene's interruption, but thought about it seriously, and then continued: "But this is only a temporary measure - the benefactor is only protecting the children currently affected by the 'fairy tale', but
There will always be new children affected by 'fairy tales', and then we have to find ways to cure the underlying causes."
"That's right... we still have to find a way to solve this matter from the root cause," Yu Sheng sighed and said slowly, "I don't know if Little Red Riding Hood has found any problems - I don't know what's going on, since just now
From the beginning, I always felt a little uneasy."
Erin's expression immediately became serious: "You can't ignore this kind of thing - spiritual intuition is warning you?"
"It's not that serious." Yu Sheng hesitated a little, and after making a very rigorous judgment, he slowly shook his head, "Probably he has just reached the stage of 'spiritual intuition is shaking', and has not yet reached the stage of 'spiritual intuition is booming and booming'.
The level of jumping."
Eileen listened dumbfounded, and held back a sentence for a long time: "When will you change your insane description? Who can understand what you mean..."
Yu Sheng scratched his hair, and just when he was about to say something more, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from the direction of the corridor, interrupting his movements.
The three people in front of the window sill followed the sound and saw Little Red Riding Hood walking over in a hurry, followed by the chubby tabby cat.
Looking at the expression on the girl's face, Yu Sheng knew that she must have found something wrong.
"What did you find?" he immediately stepped forward and asked.
Little Red Riding Hood waved her hand and said quickly: "The rats and cockroaches under the west building have disappeared."
Yu Sheng was stunned for a moment, and looked at Irene. He didn't react for a moment. After two or three seconds, he hesitated and said, "Um... congratulations?"
"Is this something that should be congratulated?" Little Red Riding Hood immediately glared at Yu Sheng, "This is obviously an abnormal situation! Hey, I haven't finished speaking yet. Then the 'King' and I checked along the underground passage of the West Building, and finally at
Something was found near a ventilation shaft at the connection between the west building and the east building..."
As she spoke, she quickly took out her phone, pulled out a picture and handed it to Yu Sheng.
Yu Sheng curiously took the phone and saw on the screen a photo taken hastily in the underground passage.
The light in the photo was not very good, and the lens seemed to be covered with a layer of blur, but he could still see that there were many overlapping outlines of shadows on the corridor wall captured in the photo.
Yu Sheng frowned, trying to identify what the shadows reflected on the wall were. After a while, he suddenly took a breath.
"It's a tree," Little Red Riding Hood said slowly beside her. "The weak light passes through the woods and casts the shadow of the tree on the wall, which will cast such a shadow - in the underground passage of the west building, the wall reflects the black
The look of a forest.”
