Chapter 774: The Orphanage

Xiao An actually didn't expect this place to be so desolate, dark red tall buildings, almost vertical cliffs, and a large flat meadow, Xiao An looked at this tall building, the reason why it is red is because the whole building uses a large number of red bricks, red bricks and red bricks in China are different, the red bricks here are a little bigger, the whole building is divided into six main bodies from the outside, all of them are tower-like spire buildings, they form a circle, connected by a corridor in the middle, it looks like a hexagon... … Jail!

Xiao An and Daoba walked into the building, there was a castle-like building in the building, not as tall as the surrounding towers, but still very grand, the castle building inside was built of stone, and the main body of the building was dark gray, it was not difficult to see that it should be white.

The castle is divided into two main bodies, one large and one small, the large main body is three stories high, don't look at only three floors, but each floor is at least eight meters high, there are three spires on the top floor, there is a four-percent high watchtower-like building on the left, there are neatly arranged depressions at the top, next to the watchtower is a slightly shorter building, although there are five floors, but the height is not as high as the main building. In the courtyard, you can also see some stone benches that have been covered with moss and swings that have long since rusted and rotted.

Xiao An and Daoba stood in the building and looked at it, and Daoba asked, "Do you feel resentful?" Or something else? Into the ghost yin? ”

Xiao An: "I didn't feel it, although this place made me instinctively feel very gloomy, but I really didn't feel any resentment or anything?" ”

"Daoba" is estimated to be a false rumor, but in fact, there are no supernatural events at all! ”

Xiao An: "I can't say that, no matter what, let's investigate how Old Man Hou's letter was mailed first!" The two of them took a step back and went directly out of the building, the two of them took off and saw a small village not far away, thinking that there was no postman nearby, if the new one was sent out, it must be sent through the postman, so there is a high probability that the clue to send the letter can be found in this village.

The two came to the village, which was very few people, only a dozen families, and came to a stout old woman who was resting next to a tractor and asked, "Excuse me." ”

Because the two of them ate Wanyan Dan, they were in the L country, and naturally spoke the language of the L country, and the old woman heard the two Chinese people speak this fluent L Chinese and said in surprise, "My God, where are you from?" ”

Xiao An: "We are Chinese. ”

Old woman: "God, your L Chinese is so good!" It's incredible. ”

Daoba: "We Chinese people learn everything fast!" By the way, old woman, let me ask you something, do we have a postman here? The kind of postman who can mail international courier! ”

The old woman thought for a moment, "Is there a postman?" But I don't know if international courier can mail it! Xiao An noticed the old woman's hesitation at this time, do you still need to think about this kind of thing? There must be a problem, but after thinking about it, it was possible that the people of country L would be like this, so he asked, "When will the postman come?" ”

The old woman "comes every day, but it has to be in the afternoon, and we are relatively remote here, so the postman comes a little later." ”

The two looked at each other, and when it was noon, the old woman said, "Why don't you come to my house and sit down?" It's going to be a while before the postman comes! ”

Xiao An: "Won't it bother you too much?" ”

The old woman smiled, "Don't be polite to me, it's just time to eat, just eat together, come on!" With that, the stout old woman invited the two of them to the tractor and drove back to her farm.

The people of country L are used to eating differently from China, but the two of them eat fresh, a plate, which is grilled fish and roast mutton, and a bunch of mashed potatoes, there are four people in the old woman's house, respectively, the old woman's son, daughter-in-law and a grandson, because of the presence of children, Xiao An did not inquire about the building, after the meal, the old woman's son cleaned up the table, and then this opportunity Xiao An asked the old woman, "Do you know about the building?" ”

The old woman looked at Xiao An, "Why are you so interested in that building?" ”

Xiao An didn't shy away from it, and said directly, "Because one of my friends passed away, but I received a photo from him in the mail from here, so let's see what happened!" ”

The old woman suddenly became excited: "Are you talking about Mr. Hou?" ”

Xiao An frowned: "Do you know?" ”

Old woman: "He died?" ”

Ann: "Yes! What's going on? Why are letters being sent? ”

The old woman sighed, "Mr. Hou is a good person, he also came a few years ago, but he entered that orphanage......"

Xiao An: "Orphanage? ”

The old woman nodded, "Yes, it's an orphanage like purgatory......"

"Do you know what happened inside?" ”

Old woman: "Speaking of which, I used to live in it...... ...... that day"

According to the old woman's description, this orphanage is very luxurious, and the conditions and facilities in the orphanage are quite superior! Even the life of the average family is not as good as the children in the orphanage, but this orphanage has a strange rule, only the first and fifteenth of each month are open to the public, and the rest of the time is completely closed, at that time, the national strength of country L was weak, and many people could not afford to eat or live in a house, so some families sent their children here, at least to ensure that the children were well fed, warmly dressed, and if they were rich, they could also take the children back.

The old woman was one of the people who was sent to the orphanage when she was a child, although the old woman was not an orphan, and the old woman was just ten years old when she entered the orphanage! At that time, the old woman didn't know what it meant to be full, nor did she know what it meant to be dressed and fit, until she was sent to the orphanage, and the old woman knew that it was possible to eat and that clothes could fit well!

The originally thin old woman quickly became healthy in the orphanage, and her original yellow little face became ruddy, in short, the first days were very comfortable, but gradually, the old woman realized that something was wrong.

The houses in the orphanage for the orphans are all big dormitories, there are a total of ten children, one of them is known to the old woman, because it is the old woman's playmate from childhood to adulthood, but she doesn't seem to remember herself, and the old woman didn't care when she was a child, after all, her parents are starving to death, and she must have been hit hard to become like this, every once in a while, someone will be adopted, or taken away, because some parents suddenly have money, they will take their children back.

Suddenly, one day the old woman's little friend disappeared, and that night she was told that she was taken back by her parents, and the other children didn't know, but the old woman knew! His parents had starved to death a long time ago, how could they be picked up? The old woman felt strange and became wary from then on.

After a long time, the old woman gradually discovered some rules, every month on the first and fifteenth there will be a lot of adults to come to the orphanage, as if to see the children, then all the orphans will gather in the hall, and those adults will stand on the second floor like a selection of goods to pick up children, of course, such as the old woman will not be placed in the crowd, and every open day morning will have a big car covered with green tarpaulin to go out, in the evening will pull a cart of vegetables back.

Originally, all this seemed to be very normal, but the old woman when she was a child noticed that something was wrong, and she had to build up the cart to pull vegetables in the morning? Why is it that the vegetables that have been pulled in the evening are not covered with tarpaulins? Now that she had her suspicions, the old woman decided to find out the truth!

There will be free time in the orphanage every day, except for the basement where children are not allowed to enter, children in other places are playing casually, the old woman when she was a child came to the backyard, wanted to jump into the cart to see, there were sporadic blood stains in the back groove of the cart, at that time the old woman thought that it should be pulled back the meat, when she was about to jump out of the car, the old woman found that there was a round thing in the gap in the back groove of the car, the old woman was curious, so she squatted down and took out the round thing! As soon as she took it out, the old woman was stunned! A finger at this time! A severed finger! The old woman was terrified! She ran back to the front yard, but fortunately no one found her.

Hesitation was excessively frightened, the old woman launched a high fever that night, the old woman with a high fever did not go away and felt that she was carried to the hospital bed in a daze and pushed away, and when she woke up again, the old woman found herself in a dimly lit, cold place, the old woman felt that her eyelids were a little heavy, but she still tried to open her eyes, and then she saw clearly, this seems to be an operating room, there are cabinets around, drinking surgical lights, and all kinds of knives, saws, scissors or something, and the cabinets are also filled with all kinds of medicines, The old woman quickly rubbed her eyes, sobered up a little, and looked into the room, there were three hospital beds, she was on the very edge, and the two beds next to her were next to her, and there was something on the bed covered with a white cloth, and the old woman was curious and wanted to open it to see! Just as she was about to lift the white cloth, there was a sudden noise at the door, and the old woman quickly lay down and closed her eyes again.

At this time, two men came in, these two men and the old woman should not have seen them, because the voice was very unfamiliar, the two came in and took something in the cabinet and went out, hearing the two of them go out, the old woman got up again and lifted the white cloth! And under the white cloth was a corpse that had turned gray! And this child granny remembers to see in the orphanage! The old woman's hands trembled so badly that she rolled her eyes and fainted again.

When he woke up again, he found himself lying in the carriage, and his parents were watching him......

Xiao An: "Huh? What's the situation? ”

The old woman "My parents took me back, my parents apologized to me all the way, cried all the way, said sorry for me, and then I went home, although life is still very difficult, but fortunately, our family is neat!" ”

"What about the corpse you saw...... Could it be a nightmare you're having? ”

"I thought the same thing at the time, and it wasn't until my father got a job that I realized it might not be a dream!" ”
