Chapter 521 Hope?
【Hey! Did you hear that? Something big happened at the orphanage two days ago!
【What's wrong? I passed by today and found that the entire area was cordoned off, with many police officers coming in and out. 】
【I know about this. I heard that a wanted murderer escaped to our Jinghai Town and secretly hid in the welfare home. He also took a bunch of poor children hostage.
In the end, the good guy was shot in the head by a police sniper! 】
【What! Real or fake? With such a close distance, wouldn't it be possible for me to pass by the murderer? 】
【……】
……
【Hey! Others only know one thing. The most exciting thing is after the police killed the gangster, guess what?
Pull out the carrots and bring out the mud. The most craziest person in the orphanage and the one who does the most bad things is not the gangster...it is actually the old director of the orphanage! 】
【What? Don't talk nonsense! I know the old dean. Although he is a bit lonely, he is very kind-hearted. Otherwise, how could he adopt so many children?
There are no famous cars or watches, so I am very poor...]
[Nonsense? Can the basement of the orphanage be faked?
Of course she doesn’t care about famous cars and watches, but she is even more hateful!
I heard that when the police discovered the secret basement, there were all kinds of tools, human bones, blood stains... That scene was as infiltrative as possible!
That is to say, the town was worried about the negative impact, so they did not allow it to be reported. 】
【Hiss~ No way? ! 】
[…]
…
[Committed suicide on the spot out of fear of crime? That's really cheap for her! How could she bear with such a young child! 】
[No, I don’t know how many poor children have been harmed. I heard that the little ones are now sent to special hospitals for psychological treatment, and they are finally out of the sea of misery. 】
【Tsk! I've gone to the orphanage a few times to donate food and supplies, but I can't tell what kind of person she is? 】
【Do you know what it means to know people, faces but not hearts? I used to think that the old woman was not normal. She didn't want a wife and she didn't do square dancing.
I will spend my whole life alone in a welfare home with no intention of doing anything. Do you believe it?
It is easy to do good deeds once in a while, but it is difficult to do good deeds all your life. Does she want to accumulate merit and achieve righteousness, or does she want to gain prestige and impress the Chinese nation?
If such a person really exists, he is not a saint, but most likely a pervert! 】
【Hey! What the hell you said makes sense. By the way, haven’t there been missing children in our town in the past few years? Do you think it has something to do with this? 】
【Stop talking, stop talking, it’s scary to think about it! 】
【……】
……
[Everyone, the city attaches great importance to the child abuse incident in the welfare home. The impact is very bad. Everyone has to work hard these two days. If you are slightly injured, you will not be out of the firing line. You are not allowed to take leave for nothing.
Our Jinghai Town is currently developing a tourist town. Once its reputation declines due to this incident, it will affect the jobs of our fellow villagers!
We will have another meeting in the evening to check for any omissions. We should say hello in the publicity department. The media should be careful not to exaggerate and cause greater negative impact...]
...
[Director Liu, what’s going on with this case? Why is the National Security Bureau even here? 】
[Otherwise, why would I second you here specially? The water here is very deep, and I heard that foreign spies may also be involved. 】
【Welfare home? spy? This... is a bit outrageous, right? What confidential information can they get by going to the orphanage? Are our Chinese donations enthusiastic? 】
【Who said no? There are so many children inside, and the supervision is so loose. There are so many things that can be obtained, such as biological samples and genetic sequencing! 】
[Hiss~ You mean, that basement is not for child abuse, but for children...]
[Shhh! Just know what you know, don't spread it to others, and patrol the area for me if you have nothing to do. By the way, if there are foreign faces, just pay more attention, maybe you can make a contribution! 】
【yes! Thanks for the advice, uncle! 】
【I told you, don’t call me uncle in the bureau! 】
【……】
……
【Are you telling the truth? 】
【Absolutely true! My uncle told me personally, you said there is such a good opportunity to make a contribution, can I not call you? 】
【Hmph! You, a bad guy, still have some conscience. 】
【Hey! Xiaoxi, let’s finish the patrol and watch a movie together in the evening? 】
【Virtue! 】
【……】
...
Listening to the various sounds coming from her ears, the blind girl with white eyes frowned slightly.
She is sitting on a park bench at this time. If she looks up from here, she can vaguely see the outline of the orphanage wall hidden among the trees...
The one in her arms The white Bichon Frize seemed to sense that its owner was in a bad mood, so it closed its eyes and pretended to be dead, not daring to disturb him in the slightest.
"What's wrong, sir? Is the situation very bad?"
The man wearing sunglasses stood behind the girl, his voice as gentle as jade.
If there were any groupies here, they would definitely be extremely surprised. Chaoge, whom they admired so much, was actually standing behind the blind girl with a low eyebrow like a servant.
"Well...it's not bad, but weird..."
The girl spoke, without much emotion in her tone.
“Weird?”
"I sent many listeners to the town to inquire about information, including several government stations and criminal investigation agencies. Judging from the intelligence collected from all aspects, the disappearance of the dean this time seems to be just an accident?"
She sorted and digested the collected information in her mind, and roughly restored the events of the previous two days...
"The cause of the matter should be The Zhao Hu we sent there accidentally exposed his whereabouts, which led to the police coming.
Zhao Hu then took hostages in the welfare home and was surrounded and killed. Unexpectedly, the police then searched the welfare home. It was only by mistake that the dean was exposed to the underground laboratory..."
"What?" Chao Ge's face changed when he heard this, and he immediately knelt down on one knee and said in fear.
"It's my subordinate who neglected his duty and made such a big mistake in selecting the target. Please punish me!"
"Chaoshu" just "looked" at him lightly.
“This is not your problem. Even I didn’t expect that Zhao Hu’s status as a fugitive would actually bring us such big trouble.
I said this thing is weird. The weird thing is here...
How could a mere operation to capture a fugitive cause such heavy damage to the entire orphanage, leaving only a few listeners who lost their command?
Even though the operational team was transferred from outside, the dean failed to grasp their information in time.
But regardless of the investigation or security scope, the director could not wait until the police surrounded the orphanage before responding. She would have moved the people long ago.
Although the dog-catching teams that were active around this time caused some trouble to the listeners, they were not so careless that they did not have time for Zhao Hu to escape.
Unless...
The dean did not think it was necessary to transfer Zhao Hu at first, and by the time he realized something was wrong, it was already too late..."
She stood up slowly and frowned while facing the direction of the orphanage.
“The strangest thing is...even if the police disguised themselves in order to get close to the orphanage, and the dean made a momentary oversight and made a mistake in response.
But with the strength of the dean, even if they encounter The army should not be killed without any news being released..."
"Killed?" Chao Ge was shocked when he heard this.
"Sir, you...you mean...the dean has...
No! Impossible. Could it be that the dean was deliberately faking his own death to escape? "
He knows the existence form of the "gods". How can that kind of monster... be killed?
"No... the dean is indeed dead. Hers and I The spiritual link has been completely disconnected...
Otherwise, why do you think 'The Nest' ordered us to come over for follow-up investigation? "
Seeing Chaoge's horrified expression, "Chaoshu" seemed to think that this was detrimental to the majesty of the "gods".
"Hmph! Just like all living things, even if the body dies, the brain will still survive for a period of time.
The brain is not immortal, but it is not fatally injured and can maintain short-term activity.
But if the main body of the brain is destroyed instantly..."
"Sir, you mean, Dean, her brain tissue was destroyed in a very short period of time, such as...sniper killing? Chaoge said in shock.
“This possibility is not ruled out, but under normal circumstances, how could a human kill the dean in this way?”
"Hmm...could it be that the dean wanted to fight to the death at the last moment, so he was killed by the police sniper..."
"emmm..."
"Chaoshu" He fell into silence and did not answer for a long time.
After all, the scene where the fugitive was captured was so chaotic and the situation was unknown at the time, so she could not say that she could completely rule out this possibility.
But she was still very confused. After all, the dean would never take action unless absolutely necessary.
If he showed his strength in front of humans just because an underground laboratory was exposed, it would not be in line with the dean's behavior pattern, and it would only arouse greater suspicion among humans.
What's more, when there is no guarantee of escape...
Manslaughter? Fire?
It seems that apart from similar coincidences, this matter cannot be explained at all.
If it is really a deliberate attack by humans, unless the other party has obtained the detailed information inside the welfare home in advance, it will be impossible to achieve such a watertight situation...
If it weren't for the fact that the parasitized "families" couldn't betray and every move was under surveillance, she would have begun to wonder if someone of her own had leaked the existence of the orphanage...
"Even the director His death is indeed a coincidence, but the current situation is that the senior officials of China must have noticed some abnormalities in the orphanage. < br>
The missing bodies of Zhao Hu and Dean are proof.
There is no news about that action team, and it seems that they were deliberately hidden.
We cannot identify the bodies yet. Completeness, it is impossible to determine how much information the other party can get about us from the corpse...
But the good news is that they now seem to have mistakenly believed that this was a secret biochemical experiment by a hostile country..."
Speaking of this, "Chaoshu" seemed to have a little ridicule on his face.
"Yes, this is what humans should be normal about. After all, in their short history of civilization, the biggest enemy of mankind has always been mankind itself..."
Chaoge was silent.
"Chaoshu" didn't care at all. The self-care continued.
"Our top priority now is to find the two corpses and eliminate as many traces of our existence as possible. In addition... we need to find the girl named Xiaoyu!"
"Xiaoyu? Is she from the same family as us?" Chao Chao Song wondered.
"Same as you? Haha! No, that is a more perfect container than you!"
Chaoge's face changed slightly, but "Chaoshu" didn't care about a mere puppet at all inner activities.
"'Chao' has issued an order. Since the dean is dead, from now on, I will officially take over the tasks of the orphanage and become the new dean!
However, the current fit between this body and mine is too low, and the time I can appear is greatly limited.
Only by getting that girl’s body can I truly have the strength to rival the other deans of the Tenth Academy! "
"My lord! "Chaoge looked panicked.
"Ha! "Chaoshu" looked at him with a slight mockery in his eyes.
"Don't worry, even if I change the container, your little lover will not die. On the contrary, you should be happy."
Because...she is free! "
Freedom?
These two words seemed to have some kind of magic power, which made Chaoge stunned for a moment.
Until he met the cold gaze of "Chaoshu", He just woke up like a dream, and his back was already covered in cold sweat.
"Sir, you will become stronger after changing the container, and we brothers and sisters will only work harder for the Gods!
Humanity is a lonely sail that is about to capsize. Only the gods are the true ark flying to freedom! ”
Freedom?
That is just a luxury wish.
Whether it is controlling his chess piece or eliminating the risk of leaking secrets, Chaoshu will never be able to obtain it. Freedom.
“Haha! "Chaoshu" nodded with satisfaction.
She doesn't care if Chaoge really thinks so in her heart, because they will never return the "body" of the family members to their "will"...
"By the way, sir, oh no, it should be the dean now. Your Excellency is right!
Can’t you tell me the whereabouts of Xiaoyu? Can you sense the approximate location using a spiritual link? "
"No, Xiaoyu is receiving the same spiritual frequency as the dean. Currently, only the dean can sense the other party's existence remotely
Nest' can only be sensed indirectly through the dean.
This is just like your human nervous system. If the spinal nerves that are the link are broken, no matter how strong the signal transmitted by the brain is, it will not be able to sense your lower limbs. "
Seemingly satisfied with the new title, "Chaoshu" did not shy away from revealing some secrets of the same spiritual frequency.
For these dependents who control life and death in their hands, except for some The core secret, she is naturally There is no need to keep it secret.
Chao Ge nodded.
Although there is a "nest" like a central brain, the division of labor and hierarchy of the gods are actually very clear.
Unless there are special circumstances, "The Nest" will not micromanage everything.
Although they are all controlled by the "nest", each protoss is an independent individual. It seems to be influenced by the parasitic family members, and has its own independent way of thinking and personality.
After getting along for a long time, he gradually figured out some of the habits and hobbies of the "adult" in front of him...
"So in the current situation, we can only collect intelligence and send out listeners. Only by reestablishing contact with the other party
Go and investigate her whereabouts, I want that girl..."
After saying this, "Chaoshu"'s expression suddenly relaxed, as if another personality came online, and his cold expression gradually became more agile.
"Huh? Brother, this is..."
Chaoshu tilted his head in confusion, feeling the environment of the surrounding park with a confused look on his face.
However, the next moment, as if he sensed some familiar scenes, his pale eyes suddenly looked in the direction of the orphanage, and his whole body started to tremble.
"Brother...Brother, here...could this be..."
"Xiao Shu, don't be afraid! I'm here."
He gently hugged Chaoshu into his arms with some distress.
Chao Ge raised his head and looked at the mottled wall of the orphanage in the distance with complicated eyes.
There... is the "home" that once raised them.
But it is also...the source of their biggest fear deep in their hearts...
And today, this source of misfortune suddenly disappeared?
The dean who was as terrifying as a demon, who created them and then led them into the abyss... died so easily? !
There was a wave of despair in his heart.
That extremely dark fate seems to have a glimmer of light.
Is this a joke of fate, or... the hope that has been buried deep in my heart for a long time and has almost no illusions anymore?
He felt Chaoshu hugging his trembling body tightly.
At this moment, Chao Ge’s eyes were dim and unreadable...(End of Chapter)
