Chapter 35 Climbing Over the Wall
readx;
Saturday night finally came, and Avi had to go to the perimeter of the White Orphanage every night of the week, and he was very careful about his whereabouts, never giving the orphanage gardeners or guards a chance to find out about it. For this reason www.biquge.info he mostly chooses to appear around the orphanage before late at night and after dinner. There were also pedestrians walking on the street at this time, so he didn't attract much attention to a well-fed teenager who seemed to be just walking nearby.
And Xiaomi also gave Avi more information about the orphanage this week, and one of the important pieces of information is that there is an underground building in the White Orphanage. Michelle says she doesn't know how deep the building is, but she's found two entrances.
"One is underneath the orphanage's internal dining hall, the other is somewhere in the 'Coexisting Forest', and the second entrance, which could also be the exit, was discovered by accident. Michelle tells Avi that the entrance to the "Forest of Coexistence" leads to the western wall of Mallot, and behind this wall is the White Orphanage, so it is very likely that this entrance is a secret passage from the orphanage to the outside of the city.
Avi himself discovered some new clues, he noticed that an orphan suddenly ran to the door of the white orphanage one night, and tried to run through the iron bars at the door. But no matter how much the orphan struggled, the gardeners didn't let him succeed. Avi saw that the other party was an able-bodied child, and it was reasonable that such a child would not go missing, but why was there fear in the child's eyes? Could it be that the little boy knew something terrible?
Tonight, Avi and Fan left the house alone after dinner, and he and Xiaomi had already discussed a plan. He is alone outside the White Orphanage to inspect if there is anything different from usual, while Millet keeps an eye on Evan - Millet tells Avi that Evan has a very close relationship with the orphanage, and that Michelle has to hide it from Evan in order to save her friend Die, and that she can't sneak out until Evan falls asleep. Avi would also return to the house before the wee hours of the morning, and wait for everyone else to fall asleep before leaving the house from the predetermined secret route to meet Michelle.
Avi walked around the white orphanage a few times, and found that the orphanage had turned off early tonight, and most of the orphans in the orphanage had gone back to sleep in the dormitory, and the gardeners were much less than usual, and even Avi stood at the door of the orphanage and pretended to stay, and none of the gardeners walked up to the iron gate to look at him.
After confirming that there was nothing unusual, Avi bought some fruit and returned to the house, and after dividing the fruit, he immediately took the book back to his bed, looked at the book and pretended to wait for sleep.
The big-nosed fan has long been surprised by such a studious Avi, because in addition to his daily life, Avi has no free time to deal with books. The books sent from the Kestrel Academy were all thrown to Avi by Stitch, and the teachers in the theory class would give Avi an identical book - not only did they think that Avi was Sticker's guard, but he was also a studious teenager.
"Hey, you said we might as well go outside and play tomorrow," Fan also lay on the bed, he hadn't fought in three weeks, and his little belly had already taken shape, "otherwise I'm going to go crazy." ”
"Okay, let's go. Avi was absent-minded, his palms holding the book sweating, and he was thinking about sneaking into the orphanage later. He doesn't know if he has enough ability to find the secret of the White Orphanage and then help Xiaomi rescue Adie. Avi touched the dagger at his waist, which was a token of the two-color blade mercenary group, and he touched another short knife stuck in his back, this short knife he had the blacksmith give him, the blade of the short knife was the black blade.
Ever since his quenched knight's sword was severed by the black blade, Avi hadn't found a weapon that could handle it, so he thought about it and went to the blacksmith with this artificial life weapon. Although the blacksmith was also very curious about this weapon with special materials and workmanship, the other party was a blacksmith from the wandering market, so he didn't say anything, just collected money to do things. Ben Nicott had told himself the secret of this black blade, so Avi knew that he would never use this short knife capable of "eating people" unless he had to.
After Big Nose Fan and the others were asleep, Avi tiptoed to the first floor, gently opened the window and jumped out. He calculated the time of the patrol and crossed several streets to Michelle's residence, and the ten-year-old girl was already standing at the agreed location waiting for Avi - but to Avi's surprise, Felisti also appeared at Michelle's side.
"How did she..."
"She's Felisty, Stitch's classmate!" Michaela whispered as she pulled a stunned Avila into the alley.
"I know... But why is she here?"
"Because she also wants to help me rescue Adie!" It turned out that after that outing, Millet and Felistie became good friends in just one week. What surprised Avi even more was that with Felisty's communication skills and interpersonal skills, she had completely won Xiaomi's trust, and even this important action involved the red-haired girl, which was incredible.
Felisty played with her hair with her fingers, and without saying a word, she stood behind Michelle and watched Avi quietly. Avi knew that the reason why the other party would voluntarily get involved was to protect himself, but to be honest, having Felisty join the operation would increase the success rate a lot, and he and Michelle would be safer.
Xiaomi tells Avi and Felistie that Mallote has four gates, and that the west gate will not be closed at night, which is a special rule for Mallot. Because of this, they now have two choices: first, to find one of the walls of the orphanage, and to climb over it without realizing it, and to enter the white orphanage, and second, to find a way to pass through the western gate of Mallot.
"You and I may be recognized, but I'd suggest finding a wall and going into the orphanage," Millet suggested, "and I've already investigated the secret entrance to the 'Cohabitation Forest', and it seems to have been sealed from behind the entrance, so we can't get through there yet." ”
After a moment of discussion, the three of them took advantage of the night to slowly touch the outer wall of the white orphanage. Avi remembered the martial law night in the Holy Light City, but Mallote was not the Holy Light City, and there would be no patrols in the residential area at night, so he also took the two of them to a place where the debris was stacked with peace of mind. All they had to do was stack most of the debris high enough to climb over the white wall one by one and enter the orphanage.
Millet asks to be the first to climb over the wall, because she is the shortest, so she can't reach the white wall even if she stands on top of all the clutter. Avi had no choice but to use it as a human stool and let the other party step on his shoulder.
Michelle stood on Avi's shoulder, and Avi stood on the clutter, "I'll take a look inside!" Mi said back to the two. It didn't take long for Michelle to temporarily "transplant" the plants to the side, creating a space on the white wall that the three of them could climb over. Avi felt the little girl on her shoulder disappear, and the other jumped into the orphanage.
The next one was Felisti's turn, but the red-haired girl was standing up to the pile of debris, and she approached Avi's side and said, "I know you're not here to help her save that orphan, it must have something to do with a secret in this orphanage, right?"
"How do you know?!"
"This also has something to do with my second mission here," the red-haired girl smiled eerily under the moon, "You know, I'm a student of St. Golia. As she spoke, she put a hand behind Avi's back and gently pressed the short knife that Avi had placed behind her waist.
