"The boat flutters, the boat rocks, the boat falls into the river and floats; One person carries the shore a day, tireless, pitiful; The boatman asked it if it wished, and he said that he only wanted the boat to float ......"

The melodious singing voice came through the window of the room, making the famous Ximen who was in a coma slowly open his eyes.

Tiredness, pain, dizziness, and all kinds of uncomfortable feelings swept over the extremely weak Ximen Mingling, making her a little dead and alive.

However, as his consciousness gradually became sober, with the help of the superpower suppression of the 'Raging Neutron', Ximen Mingling finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She found herself in a strange room, poorly furnished, with a cheap wardrobe except for a bed and a desk.

Then Simon Mingling also found that he was bandaged a lot, and the original plainclothes were replaced by a set of pajamas with a weak texture.

"What kind of place is this? These bandages ......"

The words that followed came to an abrupt end, because memories flooded like a tide, and Simon remembered what happened yesterday at once.

At that time, she was suddenly attacked by the slut of Xisaki Moon, which made her hurt and injured a lot, and she was also injured and injured at once, and she was also able to make a quick decision and escape from that research institute with her tenacious will.

However, before she could insist on returning home, Simon Mingling passed out halfway through, and she didn't remember exactly where it was.

I'm afraid that after this, it was the people here who saved themselves, and you can deduce one or two from these bandages on your body alone.

While analyzing the cause and effect, the voice of a child suddenly sounded outside the door.

"Ah Guang, no, you can't peek."

"What are you afraid of, and there won't be a piece of meat missing. And I'm just going to see if that sister is awake to reassure everyone, since she was in a coma since she was rescued yesterday. If it is really too strict, it is better to send it to the hospital for treatment. That's what Sister Sophia said, right? ”

"Yes...... But ......, that's too rude, isn't it? After all, it's not a good thing that someone is in a coma, but you go to peek at her, right? ”

"It doesn't matter if it's a good thing or a bad thing! I'm just going to check the situation, and if you're really worried, you can go in with me. ”

"This ......"

"Oh, don't do this, listen to me, go in and have a look."

The sound stopped at this point, followed by the sound of the door lock, and then the . Bed. Simon Mingling, who was sitting upright, looked at two children, a man and a woman, who came in from outside the door.

"Ahh!!!!!!h

Suddenly, the little boy let out an exclamation and ran out of the ground.

In comparison, the little girl seemed a little calm, she obviously wanted to come forward to greet Simon Mingling, and she was afraid that the little boy would cause unnecessary misunderstandings if she ran out so loudly.

At that moment, after bowing to Simon Mingling, he ran out of the door, obviously trying to catch up with the little boy and stop him.

“……”

Simon Mingling, who came to his senses, struggled out of bed and went out of the door.

Outside the door was a wood-paneled hallway, flanked by rooms with doors closed or open, and it seemed that the room he was in was one of those rooms.

It doesn't look like a single-family home, after all, such a family doesn't need so many rooms.

However, it is not correct to say that it is a rented building, and the generally rented building, considering that it is only a rental party, will be very clean and well-organized in the walkway, but this place is different.

Not to mention the various objects piled up on the ground everywhere, let's just say that the walls are also covered with calligraphy and paintings, a bit like children's paintings.

So, it's all too clear what this place is.

"An orphanage?"

There was a bitter expression on Simon's face, it seemed that the person in charge of this orphanage had saved him.

At this moment, at the corner of the corridor leading downstairs, there was a conversation between the little boy and an unfamiliar voice.

"Little light? Why are you running down in a panic? Didn't you say you weren't allowed to run in the hallway or stairs? ”

"Ah, yes...... It's the dean. No...... No, that's ...... That ......"

"Look at the way you pant for breath, let's calm down first."

Then there was a moment of silence, and I was afraid that the little boy was really adjusting his breathing as the voice said, and Simon Mingling took advantage of this time to come to the end of the corridor.

However, instead of going out immediately, she leaned her back to the wall around the corner, wanting to hear what they were talking about, and if this was the orphanage, as she had guessed.

'Whew~'

The little boy let out a loud exhale, and was about to start talking, when he was suddenly interrupted by the sound of footsteps descending the stairs from upstairs.

It was the little girl who went down the stairs, and it seemed that she thought the little boy had run upstairs and went upstairs to look for it, but when she couldn't find it, she had to go downstairs, and it happened that the little boy was talking to the owner of the voice on the stairs.

"Ah, Dean. Guang, how did you get here? It's easy for me to find it. ”

"Hmph, who is rare for you to find. No, Dean, the big sister has woken up. ”

"Do you mean the girl who was rescued by Sophia yesterday?"

"yes, she woke up all of a sudden, and it almost scared me to death."

"Suddenly......!? Even if she wakes up, why are you startled by her? Should you ......, Xiaoguang, tell me honestly, did you go to peek at her? ”

"Ah, that, no. I'm ......."

"Yes, Dean, Ah Guang was peeking at that big sister just now, and he was startled because there was a ghost in his heart."

"You've got a ghost in your heart, you idiot! Why do you say it when you shouldn't say it? Don't forget, you also went with me to take a peek. ”

"You just peeked, I went to stop you, and when I saw that I couldn't stop you, I followed you in, just in case you guy made a mess. That's the way it is, Dean. ”

The little boy and the little girl were arguing over each other, and the man who was called 'the dean' saw that it was really not like it, and stopped the two of them.

After some instructions, when he wanted to come up to visit Simon Mingling, Ximen Mingling walked out of the corner by himself after a little silence, and just happened to meet the dean who came up.

The abbot was a woman in her 50s, dressed in modest monastic robes with a cross hanging from her chest, giving the air of a religious clergyman.

"Do you want to drink anything? Coffee, juice or tea? Hungry? I have cereal, spaghetti and salad here. ”

"I'm not hungry yet, just give me a cup of tea."

Facing the enthusiastic dean, Simon Mingling politely replied, and then glanced at the window and the door.

This is the lobby on the first floor that is used for classes, homework, and prayers, and except for a pulpit with a bronze statue of the Son of God hanging on one side, the rest of the area is neatly arranged with desks like a school classroom.

Then, in the corner, a small pantry was arranged, and at this time Simon Mingling and the dean were in this pantry.

The windows and doors were crowded with children who wanted to see the excitement, and there were no less than dozens of them.

They seemed to be interested in Simon's visitor, but due to the dean's order not to approach, they had to stand on their toes and watch, and whispered.

"Come, your tea, be careful of scalding."

After the dean brought a cup of tea to Simon Mingling, he sat down on the other side of the table: "Really? Your name is Simon Mingling, how are you doing? ”

"Thank you for your concern, it's a lot better."

Simon Mingling was feeling thirsty, so she took a full sip of the teacup until there was only half of the tea left in the cup, and then she exhaled.

"Don't worry, there's more."

The dean smiled and picked up the teapot for Ximen Mingling, Ximen Mingling hurriedly said thank you, and when he was about to speak, the discussion of the children outside suddenly became louder, so that the dean had to go out with a straight face and scold, and the pantry was calm.

"I'm sorry for making you laugh."

The director who returned to the pantry sighed lightly: "As you can see, this is an orphanage, and it is not common for outsiders to come, even the volunteers who came to help stay for less than a few hours before leaving, so the children are lonely and eager to communicate with outsiders. However, you also know that this is not realistic, although I am also bothered by it. ”

"It's okay, kid."

Simon didn't know what to say, so he had to laugh a few times.

The dean immediately came back to his senses, knowing that such a topic was not suitable for discussion with an outsider.

"Anyway, Mingling, it's okay for me to call you that, right?"

"Nope." Simon shook his head lightly.

"Well, Mingling, maybe it's a bit rude to ask that, but why did you pass out on the street so badly injured? If Sophia hadn't brought you back and treated you, I'm afraid you'd be ...... by now."

"Sophia is ......!?" Simon Mingling did not answer the rhetorical question.

"She's our teacher here, so she can be considered my collaborator."

The dean recalled yesterday's scene: "You shed a lot of blood yesterday, and I am afraid that you will not be able to send it to the hospital, so Sophia has to use all the medical supplies available to treat your injuries." Thankfully, you've finally woken up, and I think Sophia will be happy to hear that. ”

"In other words, it was this man named Sophia who saved me, right? What about her now? ”

"She is now out to buy food materials for lunch and evening today, and I'm afraid it will take a while to come back."

"I see."

Simon Mingling groaned slightly, and casually made up a reason why he was injured.

"Was he injured after being robbed of money by a gangster?"

Listening to Simon's reasoning, the dean sighed lightly: "Since the incident has happened, don't worry too much, it's not easy to get your life back, may the Lord bless you." ”

"Thank you." Simon said hurriedly.

"Now that you've woken up, tell your family that you're safe right away, and save them from worrying about you."

"I ...... I don't have a family. ”

Saying this, Simon Mingling looked out the window with some hazy eyes.
