Zhang Qilu spent seven days and seven nights alone in his studio. No one knows what he's doing in there.

Looking at the finished product in front of him, he sighed, the genius boy suddenly had his legs imprisoned, lost his ability to move, couldn't beat him, couldn't run away, and could only rely on his own mouth, which made Zhang Qilu a little panicked at first, but he still survived. This sigh is really meaningful.

Zhang Qilu was already asleep in bed at the moment, Li Xiaoxiao didn't watch TV or do anything else, she looked at her brother silently on the side. She wore the peace jade talisman around her neck, and Zhang Qilu made a base for the jade talisman with gold and inlaid the jade stone in it. Although it looked a little bulky to wear around Li Xiaoxiao's neck, she didn't care at all, because it was a gift from her brother.

Liu Silong is now sitting in the small pavilion in the courtyard, looking at a book that Zhang Qilu gave her yesterday as a workbook for elementary school students.

"Hey fatty, we'll be ready to go in a moment. You go clean up. Xu Qianqian ran over and urged.

Liu Silongtou didn't raise his head, continued to look at the book in his hand and said, "Where are you going?" I don't have anything to pack. ”

"Hey the little fat man just to see what's the use, let's take a hand and practice."

The same age, the same experience, and the same hobbies make these two girls stick together whenever they are free these days. Because of the existence of Zhang Qilu, the cultivation of the two of them has made rapid progress during this period of time, and partnering has become one of the most common things they do.

Just as the two sisters were putting on a posture, the dusty Xu Qian's outer courtyard came over.

"Have you found it?"

"Nope."

Seeing the tiredness of the senior brother, Xu Qianqian didn't bother, took out a wooden nothing-matter card from her pocket and handed it to Xu Qian, "Senior brother, this is what Uncle Xiao asked me to give you." ”

Xu Qian took the wooden sign and looked at it carefully, the brand was the size of a palm, the wood was crystal clear, and the background color was golden. The wood grain is clearly scattered with dotted markings, and there is nothing else in the middle of the wooden card except for a spell engraved on the seal, which is a wooden talisman.

Xu Qian held the wooden talisman and felt a quiet and serene spiritual power lingering on it, and for a moment, his fatigue was reduced a little.

......

This is a children's home in the suburbs of Kotogawa City. A small two-story building, the building is not large, the walls are mottled, and the outer wall is covered with red, green, and green creepers, which adds a touch of vitality to this place.

Li Xiaoxiao has completed all the adoption procedures, and Senior Brother Xu, who is in charge of finances, has now become her nominal adoptive father. But they decided to stay at the orphanage for a few days, so that the staff and children of the orphanage had some impressions.

Liu Silong pushed Zhang Qilu at this time, she was very natural, without the slightest reluctance, when Master Jing Rifei asked her to be the driver for these two little children, she was very resistant, but now she no longer has the slightest complaint, in front of Zhang Qilu is completely like an obedient maid.

The director of the orphanage is surnamed Fang, she is a kind middle-aged woman, and she is introducing the orphanage to Zhang Qilu and others.

"This is the playground, and there are two houses over there, one is a utility room and the other is a duty room."

Dean Fang has always been funded by the Thousand Hands Gate, and this time he only knew that it was the door that rescued a poor orphan from the traffickers, and the Xu family decided to adopt it and let the hospital help with the procedures.

Xu Qianqian said on the side, "Dean Fang, I'm sorry for you this time, that child has been locked up by human traffickers for a long time, and now she has some psychological problems, so she wants to come here for two days to see if living a group life with some children of the same age will help her." ”

Speaking of which, everyone looked at the side of the playground together, and Li Xiaoxiao, who was playing happily on the children's slide.

Xu Qianqian smiled awkwardly: "Dean, you see, this kid is already a lot more cheerful when he first comes." I'm really bothering you this time. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, don't bother me to take you to meet the staff and children here."

In addition to the director, the home has three staff members, a female teacher who wears glasses. The aunt who was in charge of the shopping and meals, and the old man who was in charge of cleaning and janitory.

There are now more than 20 children here, the youngest of whom is six or seven years old, most of whom are about the same age as Zhang Qilu and Li Xiaoxiao.

There is a child who has left a deep impression on everyone, because this child is a bit similar to Zhang Qilu, he is also delicate, and his legs and feet are not very good.

Next, the dean introduced the children to each other, this child with inconvenient legs and feet is called Xiaojie, two months ago with his grandmother died suddenly, the local security personnel have not been able to contact his parents who work in Huhai, so he sent him to the welfare home, but I didn't expect this to live for two months, his parents have not heard from him so far.

A group life of waking up with a group of peers, washing, eating, studying, and watching TV. It is something that Zhang Qilu and Li Xiaoxiao have never experienced.

Li Xiaoxiao has become the eldest sister of all children on the first day. Her open-mindedness and cheerfulness are contagious to the children here, and all of them are eager to play with her, not to mention her little bag full of snacks and sweets. After eating, she took the schoolbag and gave candy to the children watching TV. At this time, Zhang Qilu can see expectation and hope in the eyes of children.

The best play with Li Xiaoxiao is a teenage girl named Xiaoling. Two ponytails. happily followed Li Xiaoxiao all day long.

Because the conditions were really limited, Xu Qianqian went back to Qianshumen, Liu Silong lived alone in the duty room, the weather was hot, and there were many mosquitoes, but she didn't take it seriously at all, and only cared about reading his workbook for primary school students all day long. Sometimes they can even sit for a day and move all nights.

The carefree days passed very quickly, and three days passed in a blink of an eye. I was going to go back to Senjumen today, but I didn't expect an accident to happen in the morning.

Early in the morning, before Zhang Qilu got up, he heard someone say that Xiao Jie and Xiao Ling were gone.

Everyone was shocked at first, and then immediately calmed down, and who really cared about the children in the orphanage. They are like a wildflower on the side of the road, no one cares if they are there or not.

Others didn't care, but Li Xiaoxiao cared. Zhang Qi saw Li Xiaoxiao crying for the first time, and she just smiled open-mindedly in the face of life and death, even if she was beaten down, she just got up with a smile and continued to eat after sleeping.

Seeing Li Xiaoxiao like this, Zhang Qilu's heart was like a knife at the moment.

"Dean, can't you call the police?" Zhang Qi asked Dean Fang

"Xiaoqi, it's not that I don't go to the police, even if I go to the security officers, I won't care, don't say it's a child from a welfare home, it's the same with a child from a normal family, they won't accept it if the disappearance is not 48 hours. It often happens that children are lost in orphanages, and most of them are ignorant and run out to find their parents. Some come back on their own after two days when they are hungry. ”

Zhang Qilu didn't argue with the dean, because he knew that what the dean said was right. He wiped the tears on Li Xiaoxiao's face and said, "Xiaoxiao, go and call Silong." ”

Before Li Xiaoxiao went out, Liu Silong hurriedly ran in and said, "The person has been found." ”

The man was found in a pond not far from the orphans, and the boy named Xiaojie had died in the pond.

Everyone is regretting that these two children may have drowned because of the hot day, and discussed whether to go down to catch Xiaoling.

Zhang Qilu said, "Dean, call the police, Xiao Jie didn't drown in the water for fun." The drowned man has his feet forward, his mouth closed, his eyes open and closed, his hands clenched into fists, the soles of his feet wrinkled and white, and there will be pale traces of blood and abrasions. Because people struggle when they fall into the water. Qi and veins come and go, so water is pumped into the intestines. Hands curl up naturally. There is mud and sand on the hands and feet. There is foam coming out of the mouth and nose, and there is water swelling in the abdomen. According to this, it was judged that Xiao Jie was killed and then thrown down. So it is impossible for Xiaoling to trip over something under the pool. She must have been taken captive by someone. ”

Zhang Qilu said to Liu Silong, "Go and talk to Sister Qianqian, and let her send everyone in the door to find someone." I told them that one of my aunt's friends was missing. Let's go, we'll go back now. ”
