Chapter 174 Orphanage

In their line of work, it's normal for people to die outside often, and sometimes there's no time to register the situation.

Fu Zhaozhao hummed, "I suspect that his identity is the same as that one named Huarong, and if nothing else happens, there should be someone like this in your team."

Xiaobao's expression suddenly changed, and then returned to normal: "Don't be afraid, I prepared a big gift for them."

"Oh? Big gift?" Fu Zhaozhao asked.

Xiaobao snorted and said, "You will know later. Let's not talk about this for now. Let's deal with this matter first. If it drags on, I'm afraid the problem will become more serious. And according to the investigation, there are a lot of things going on this time." Most likely related to the Crier."

Fu Zhaozhao nodded in understanding, flipped through the information casually, and then went out.

Since the place he was going to this time was not too remote, Fu Zhaozhao did not plan to take a taxi himself and directly found someone to take him to his destination.

【Sunshine Welfare Home】

There are a few big words hanging on the top that look a bit old. The door is a blue iron door with a layer of locks on the outside and a lock on the inside. The surrounding high walls are also wired to prevent anyone from entering. .

After Fu Zhaozhao got out of the car, he smelled a strong musty smell even if he didn't go in.

The musty smell was mixed with a hint of rust, as if the mold had grown from the carcasses of some animals.

Fu Zhaozhao knocked politely before entering, but there was no response inside.

But it's right to think about it. After such a big thing, no one dares to come to this place again.

Fu Zhaozhao straightened his body and planned to find a shorter wall to climb in.

At this moment, a small opening was opened above the blue iron door, and a face that looked like dried orange peel was revealed.

The other person's eyes narrowed, as if he had just woken up.

"Who is it? This place is closed to the public. If you have anything to do, you can go to the welfare home on the other side of the city. They have moved there now." The old man's old voice sounded faintly, with a hint of dissatisfaction at being woken up while sleeping.

Seeing that face, Fu Zhaozhao looked a little surprised, "Why are you here?"

The person inside the iron gate was none other than the old man she had met two or three times before.

Perhaps because the voice sounded familiar, the old man squinted his eyes and looked at it before suddenly saying: "Oh...it turns out to be you."

He paused for a moment, opened the door tremblingly, and asked the people outside: "It's been so long, what are you doing here?"

Fu Zhaozhao made an excuse at random, "My friend lives nearby and I want to come to talk to her about something, but I don't know the way so I want to ask someone."

When she said this, the old man nodded in understanding.

"That's true, the neighborhood is really messy and hard to find." The old man then asked where her friend lived.

Fu Zhaozhao named a house a few streets away based on the address he remembered.

After hearing this, the old man pointed out the way to her.

Fu Zhaozhao nodded in understanding, and then changed the topic and asked the other party: "I remember that you were working at a construction site over in Haicheng. Why are you here now?"

I have to say that this old man is really from all over the world, and I feel like I can meet him everywhere.

Speaking of this, the old man couldn't help but sigh. "I don't know what kind of evil he has done. My old man has to work everywhere even at his age." Then he briefly told what happened.

It turned out that he had done a good job as a guard at an abandoned construction site in Haicheng, but some petty thieves often sneaked into the construction site at night to steal steel bars.

I don’t know what kind of taboo he has violated. Normally, those people would just leave after seeing each other. The old man just pretended to scare. But who would have expected it? When he was patrolling one morning, he found that the steel bars on the second floor had just stood up, like they were intersecting. Something the same.

When he took a closer look, he collapsed to the ground in fear.

The old man sighed quietly: "Stop talking about it. Just talking about that scene is scary. The two men who stole the steel bars had the steel bars penetrated their bodies and stood there."

"After that incident, I don't know what luck happened, but the construction site actually came back to life. Later, it felt that I was no longer needed, so I was fired. Now I am just looking for a job here to dawdle. "The old man sighed.

Fu Zhaozhao expressed his understanding and then asked several other questions.

The old man probably hadn't had anyone to chat with him for a long time, but he chatted a lot with Fu Zhaozhao for a while.

"Let me tell you, don't look at me here alone looking at the gate. In fact, I don't dare to go in, especially at night."

"What happened at the meeting tonight?" Fu Zhaozhao heard something fishy.

The old man came closer and whispered: "There are strange sounds here at night. It sounds like a child crying, but it doesn't look like it. Anyway, it is weird."

Fu Zhaozhao got the information he wanted, and his eyes became dark: "That's it? It could also be the cracks in the doors and windows blown by the wind. It's been very windy recently."

The old man snorted coldly, "You young people just don't believe in these superstitions. I'm not telling you that if you can stay here all night, then you are."

As he said that, the old man gave a thumbs up and shook it.

Fu Zhaozhao was worried that there was no other way to get in, but he didn't expect that the opportunity would be right in front of him today.

"That's what you said." Then Fu Zhaozhao stepped into the Sunshine Welfare Home.

As soon as I walked in, a cold breath hit my face, a feeling that made people feel cold in their bones.

This was the first time Fu Zhaozhao encountered such obvious discomfort. She muttered a few words in her mouth, and half of the cold feeling immediately dissipated, and she finally felt better.

After finishing all this, I turned around and discovered that the old man was wearing a thick army green cotton-padded jacket. Apparently he had put it on because he couldn't stand the cold.

The old man was just talking casually at first, but when Fu Zhaozhao entered the whole person, he was stunned for a moment and looked confused.

He trembled his lower lip, as if he wanted to say something, but looked like he couldn't.

Fu Zhaozhao pretended he didn't see it and instead looked around.

It wasn't obvious from the outside, but now that I stepped inside, I realized that this orphanage was surprisingly big.

Just looking up, the entire orphanage covers an area of ​​more than 100 square meters. It is not the same as the old and poor children you imagined. There are even some particularly conspicuous places where you can see traces of recent construction.

Old man: "It's too late for you to regret it now. It's really scary here at night, and there's nothing to be ashamed of."

Fu Zhaozhao turned to him and asked: "Where should I stay tonight?"

Seeing that she was still stubborn, the old man raised his hand and pointed forward.

"The second floor is where the dean used to be. It's quite clean there."
