Chapter 14: Blue Sky Orphanage
The 211 bus looked old, and before boarding, Max hurriedly glanced at the line sign on the platform, which read the No. 1 Ruins and the Iron Horse Bridge.
Apparently, the car was driving from the ruins of No. 1 somewhere in the east city to the iron horse bridge somewhere in the west city, and the Blue Sky Orphanage was at a stop on this line.
After getting on the bus, Max found that there was actually a conductor on the car.
Max found a seat in the front row, and just as he wanted to sit down, he remembered that Liu Fat, who needed a seat more than him, so he gave it to him and continued to walk to the back of the carriage.
In the last row, Mai Si finally found a seat, sat down, and just wanted to take out his mobile phone, an aunt-level conductor with a leather bag around his neck followed him, looking at him with a smile.
"How much does it cost to go to the Blue Sky Orphanage?" Mai Si asked softly, for fear of being heard by Liu Fat.
"8 Sobe."
Max didn't notice a hint of suspicion on the other party's face.
Mai Si handed over the money and asked in a low voice, "Where do I go to the Blue Sky Orphanage?" ”
At this moment, the conductor's eyebrows were completely twisted, and he exclaimed: "Mai Si, what's wrong with you today, I'm your Aunt Liu!" ”
Mai Si was startled, and hurriedly looked at her, as soon as the eyes of the two sides touched, Mai Si suddenly became excited, and a pulse swayed in his brain like lightning, and then a frame of pictures flashed quickly in his brain, as if a certain memory was forcibly implanted, and it was like an amnesiac person regaining his memory.
The memories that were as ethereal as a veil of fog instantly became clear.
The middle-aged woman in front of her is called Liu Taoying, who has always been the conductor on the bus company No. 211, she is the wife of Chen Dahai, a preschool teacher at the Blue Sky Orphanage.
This is a main line memory, and in addition to this, Max can also feel that the related side memories are also spreading rapidly in his mind.
The Blue Sky Orphanage is not far from the terminal near the Iron Horse Bridge.
The orphanage has a thousand-year-old ginkgo tree with a thick trunk, a canopy, and lush foliage.
The orphanage has a total of more than a dozen staff, in addition to the old director Wei Li, there are four preschool teachers, among which Chen Dahai has been the longest, in addition to two cleaners, three nurses and two cooks.
In the process of growing up, the children in the orphanage will be adopted by various families, and many children of the same age who grew up with Max have a new home, but Liu Xingwen and Maxley can't move, and they are already high school students in the blink of an eye.
However, Liu Xingwen and Mai Si also have a home in the orphanage, the Blue Sky Orphanage has a three-story staff dormitory building, Liu Xingwen lives with the family of another preschool teacher, and Mai Si follows the old dean Wei Li.
The old dean Wei Li has always been single, no children and no daughters, in memory he should be almost in his old age, it stands to reason that he should have retired at this age, but for some reason, he has been working in this position, and no one seems to have ever cared.
Max also tried to recall the appearance of the old dean Weili, but his mind went blank.
"Maith, are you sick?" Liu Taoying couldn't wait to ask again.
Mai Si came back to his senses, immediately pretended to be sick, and said weakly: "I had a fight with someone today, and my head is still groggy. ”
"How can you get into a fight with someone? It didn't hurt anywhere, did it? ”
"It's okay, just take a break, Aunt Liu, you can rest assured."
Liu Taoying breathed a sigh of relief and said with a slight reproach: "If Dean Wei knows about your fight, he will train you again!" ”
Mai Si immediately begged: "Aunt Liu, please don't sue!" ”
"Forget it this time, it's good in the future, otherwise I'll let Dean Wei spank you!" After saying that, Xiao Yingying left.
As soon as Aunt Liu left, Mai Si hurriedly glanced at Liu Xingwen, who was concentrating on swiping the screen with his mobile phone in his hand, as if he was unaware of the scene that had just happened.
Maith came to life in no time.
Take out your phone and be a determined voyeur.
His understanding of the world has just begun, and more information must be expanded, and that Du Lao Tieba chat group is a better choice.
In just a short period of time, the "Knock the Crypt Aliens Back to Your Hometown" group received a message of 99+.
Click: There are 227 unread messages.
Obviously, there is something going on in the group.
Max wanted to scroll up and brush up some more information, but the information was refreshed too quickly, and there were more graphs in these messages.
Max was quickly drawn to a picture.
The picture shows an extremely ugly big guy, with hands and legs, and its appearance is vaguely human, in an upright shape, but the face is completely a lion face, triangular eyes, a flat and flat wide nose bridge, two provocative ears on both sides of the cheeks, and a black and long mane from the neck to the top of the head.
The only difference is that its upper and lower limbs are completely different from those of a lion, and have evolved into human hands and human legs, resembling the claws of a hand, with four fingers in front and one finger in the back, while the claws resembling legs have only four toes.
At this time, a group member with the screen name "Firefly Morning" posted a clearer picture of the strange beast.
This picture is from abroad, the background of the picture is an exotic street, and the text used on various signboards is all in English.
This monster is eating the corpse of a human on the street.
Bus No. 211 traveled bumpily for nearly an hour, and in this hour, Max was exposed to a huge amount of information through the chat group, and his understanding of the world took a step forward. Eventually, the bus stopped at a stop, and Aunt Liu reminded loudly: "The Iron Horse Bridge has arrived, get off the bus." ”
Maith jumped out of the car.
The surrounding scene tells Max that this is the urban-rural junction of the Magic City.
Stepping onto a gray gravel road, Mai Si followed Liu Xingwen anxiously and walked forward.
A few hundred meters later, a courtyard appeared on the right-hand side, and the top of the low fence was covered with lush creepers, and the lush foliage of the courtyard wall stretched out of the wall, so that the whole courtyard was surrounded by greenery.
After walking more than 100 meters along the root of the wall, when he looked up, Max saw a towering ginkgo tree.
Two mottled and obsolete iron doors were closed, and on the arched iron frame above the iron doors, six rusty round iron sheets were welded, and six large characters were written in red lacquer: Blue Sky Orphanage.
Liu Xingwen stepped forward and raised his hand to slap the iron door a few times.
