There was no signal in the mountains, and Tan Wan never received a reply from Li Dongliao, so he only felt that there was no signal.

Nor did it take it seriously.

Tan Wan opened the pre-downloaded video on his mobile phone and watched again how Yin Dong climbed into the orphanage from the back mountain.

The Red Heart Orphanage was built on a ramp connected to the back mountain, and Tan Wan found the place where Yin Dong climbed to take a look.

Sure enough, it's a good place, and if you stand on the dirt slope and jump again, you should be able to easily catch the top of the orphanage's fence.

The fence is in the backyard, and after climbing over the railing, you can grab the thick branch of the banyan tree and climb down the trunk.

Tan Wan recounted the whole process in his mind.

Then she slipped her phone into her pockets and freed her hands, raised them above her head, and jumped hard at the top of the railing.

After that, with the help of the pattern on the railing as a stepping stone, the hand pulled, the foot kicked, and the person sat on the fence.

The leaves of the banyan tree stretched out, and Tan Wan grabbed a thick one, and first pressed it carefully.

After confirming that the weight of the branch could support herself, she grabbed the branch with one hand and jumped hard!

Wang Mei was in the corridor, and when she passed the corridor on the top floor of the backyard, she suddenly heard the leaves of the banyan tree 'rattling', as if something was on it.

Wang Mei stopped and set her eyes on the banyan tree vigilantly.

She looked at it for a long time, as if trying to see through the dense layers of leaves.

However, the lights outside were too dim, and the night became the biggest protective color of the banyan tree, and it was impossible to see what was inside.

At this moment, Tan Wan also noticed Wang Mei.

Looking at Wang Mei from the perspective of talking about the night, Wang Mei was almost looking at herself.

The corridor where Wang Mei was located was lit up, and it was dark on Tanwan's side.

With experience, Tan Wan kept telling himself in his heart that Wang Mei couldn't see herself clearly at this moment, so don't panic.

Thinking of this, I had the courage to learn the cat's call: "Meow~Meow~~"

It was the first time Tan Wan had done such a thing, screaming at the top of his voice, imitating the shrill cry of a wild cat.

Through the window, Wang Mei vaguely heard the cat's meow, so she didn't stay long and turned away.

Seeing that the people were gone, Tan Wan took a deep breath.

Just in case, she decided to stay in the tree for an extra five minutes, lest people come back after they hadn't gone far.

For the sake of prudence, Tan Wan did not turn on the mobile phone, and the bright light of the mobile phone screen was too dazzling in this night.

Instead, you tuck your phone into the bottom of the bag, zip the bag halfway, take a quick look at the screen, and press it off.

"Well, let's sit for another five minutes......" Tan Wan said to himself in his heart.

Looking at this banyan tree from below was already very shocking, and when she sat on top of the banyan tree, she felt that the branches were luxuriant, and the tree was very big.

The wind slowly blows through the leaves, and a red thread comes into view.

The red thread was hung on the treetops, and I don't know how long it had been hanging, but as the tree continued to grow, the thread had grown into the wood.

Although it is a red line, the color has long since faded and looks a little gray.

Under the rope, there seemed to be a small piece of metal hanging from it, which flashed and flashed under the wind.

Since this rope is relatively short, inconspicuous, and covered by various branches and leaves, it is impossible to see it when you look up from the bottom.

Driven by curiosity, Tan Wan reached for the object.

The rope grew in the tree, but the place where Tan was late was far away from the thing, the position was just beyond the farthest distance of the middle finger, and the center of gravity was unstable and fell down when he took a step forward, and he was unwilling to take a step back.

It took a lot of effort to get the thing in my hands and make me sweat.

The rope is still the same rope, but the iron piece is not an iron piece, but a small oval picture frame.

The front and back are transparent glass, one circle is a sealed metal magnetic design, and a mini photo is sandwiched in the middle.

The photo is slightly yellowed, and it has been in the open air for a long time, and it is good to be able to save it like this.

Tan Wan put the photo in his hand and looked at it, with four children on it, one woman and three men.

The girl in the middle is the tallest, with a ponytail, and she pulls three little boys to her left and right.

Two of them didn't know each other, but the other ...... The more she looks at it, the more familiar it becomes, isn't this Xiaoqi?

Tan Wan repeatedly looked at the boy's appearance several times, although his demeanor and dress changed, but his appearance did not change much, confirming that it was Xiao Qi.

But who are the other two boys and the little girl in the middle......

Tan Wan subconsciously glanced at the back of the photo, and saw that there were words written in pencil behind the back.

The handwriting is faint, and you have to be careful to read it clearly.

'December 31, 2002 New Year's Eve, I hope we will always be together. ’

"...... 2002"

When Tan Wan saw this line of words, his brows were furrowed.

If this photo was taken in 2002, more than 20 years have passed in terms of time, why does Xiaoqi look like it hasn't changed at all?

stared at Xiaoqi's face in the photo for a long time, and before she could think clearly, she heard a loud 'bang' in the back kitchen.

Tan Wan was startled by the sound and hurriedly looked in the direction of the sound.

I saw smoke start to rise from the kitchen, and between the thick black smoke, there was a faint fire.

The back kitchen is located in the front yard, while Tan Wan is in the back yard, which is blocked by a building in the middle.

Even when she sat on the tree, she could barely see a little.

Tan Wan shoved the photo into his pocket and jumped down the mountain.

Just as she jumped onto the grass and was about to run towards the fire, she suddenly tripped over something.

Because he was in too much of a hurry and ran too fast, with the inertia, Tan Wan's whole person fell out and fell heavily to the ground.

"Hiss ......" After such a fall, his whole body hurt faintly, and Tan Wan couldn't tell where he fell.

She got up from the ground and subconsciously patted the dust and dirt off her shoulders.

"What is it?" She sat on the ground and looked back, trying to see what had tripped over her.

I saw a small section of a gray-white thing showing at the root of the banyan tree.

With the firelight, Tan Wan stared at that section of things, and his face became more and more bad.

"Yes...... Is it a human bone......" Tan Wan was not sure, and she crawled next to the thing.

Then he looked around and found a sharp stone.

Tan Wan held the stone with both hands, and used the sharp side as a shovel, constantly digging up the soil on the ground.

As the soil was dug more and more, a white child's bone came to the fore.

She took out the bones and set them aside, and saw that there was still soil under them, so she continued to plan.

The fire was raging beside him, and Tan Wan sweated and did the same movements quickly and didn't dare to stop, until he saw the child's skull fully displayed in front of him......
