Chapter 511 Memories 10
Teacher Huahua smiled with her eyebrows curved. "That's great. You can play with them for a while. I'll go prepare lunch."
Lingruo nodded and found a place to sit down. Two boys came over and said, "Hey, Lingruo, I didn't expect you to be sent here like us."
"I don't know if mom and dad can find us." The boy in white clothes stepped forward. "Remember what you said before about staying there obediently? Actually, after thinking about it, it's not bad to stay there. At least there is meat to eat every meal. It's not like this orphanage."
Ling Ruo had long forgotten what she had said to the boy, but when she heard that the boy wanted to go back to the village where he was sold, she replied, "You can go back."
The fat boy in white shook his head, pretending to be serious as he walked to Ling Ruo's side, and said in a low voice, "You can't go back, you know? Although the police didn't report it to the public, the adults in the village have gone crazy, and many of them have died."
He suddenly shuddered. "There were a lot of adults in white clothes, holding strange tools, as if they were looking for someone. The family that adopted me somehow offended those people, and as a result, they all died. If the police hadn't come, they might not have left."
Xiaopang felt depressed when he recalled how he and the policeman had described the adults in white clothes in vivid detail, but in the end he was told not to joke around.
He really wasn't joking. His uncle clearly saw it, so why did everyone seem to have forgotten about it?
It was announced to the outside world that the adults had died in an accidental fire, but Xiaopang knew that the fire in the village only burned property and did not kill anyone.
When the group of adults in white arrived, the fire had been put out for several days. They did not die in the fire at all. But no matter what Xiaopang said, no adult believed him.
"Did you hide in the house like me that night? Did you hear any noise?"
Ling Ruo shook her head. In fact, she had forgotten who she was. She had long forgotten all her memories of the village, including the memory of being abducted. She even learned her name from Xiao Pang's mouth.
She is just a child, and sometimes knowing too much is not a good thing.
"Okay." Xiaopang curled his lips.
Their conversation did not avoid the other two boys, and the pretty boy remained motionless like a porcelain doll, with even his expression showing no major changes.
After finishing a not-so-hearty lunch, Lingruo returned to the big dormitory, found her own bed and lay down. The bed next to her was that of the handsome boy she had met at noon.
Ling Ruo turned over and faced the boy. "They both told me about their experiences in the village. What about you?"
Still no answer.
Come to think of it, she seemed to have not heard the boy speak in these few hours.
He can't be mute, right?
The next few days further verified Lingruo's guess. The handsome boy didn't speak a word and never participated in the games among other children. Every day he just squatted under a tree in the orphanage, looking at the ants on the ground.
I don’t know if it was Lingruo’s illusion, but this boy would sometimes look at her a few times.
Although he is handsome, his personality is like that of a lonely freak.
She is completely different from Lingruo. She is beautiful, good-tempered, and gets along well with other children. She has become the most popular child in the orphanage.
Many children want to make friends with her.
However, the handsome boy was hated by the children in the orphanage because he always had a blank expression and a stern face and ignored everyone.
Two or three cicadas chirped outside the window at night. Lingruo opened her eyes. She was a little thirsty. The children in the house were still asleep. She lifted the quilt and got up. She found that the bed next to her was empty.
Huh? Where did that boy go?
Lingruo pushed open the door, drank some water first, then walked into the yard and looked under the tree where the boy usually was, but there was no one there.
She walked over and squatted down to look at the ants on the ground, imitating what the boy had done before. She squatted for a long time and her legs became numb, so she simply sat down.
I really don’t know how the boy managed to squat under the tree for the whole day. Lingruo was a little tired, so she thought about going back to sleep. The sky was bright as silver, and she looked up to find that the sky was dotted with stars, and countless stars gathered into a brilliant sea of stars.
The ants on the ground moved around, forming a black figure.
0.
But they soon dispersed again.
Lingruo, who was looking up at the starry sky, did not notice this scene. She was still immersed in the beautiful night. When she noticed someone approaching, she turned around and found that it was the boy who left the bed.
The dark eyes looked straight at Lingruo, making her feel a little scared.
Ling Ruo was the first to break the silence, "Are you out here to see the stars?"
I didn't expect any response, but the boy nodded.
Tonight is a special day. Every year at this time, that group of people will inject new substances into their bodies.
Where they were, there was a special transparent glass cover above their heads. Whenever they looked up, they could see the brilliant starry sky above.
"Can you speak?"
The boy continued to nod.
"Then what's your name?"
I didn't expect to get an answer, but the boy spoke instead. His voice was tender and childish, "My name is Bai Yu."
It turns out he is not mute.
"It's getting late. Let's go back and rest. If Teacher Huahua sees the empty bed, she will probably be worried."
Lingruo took Bai Yu's hand, walked across the long corridor, opened the door, and returned to her bed.
Their beds were next to the window, and they could see the bright stars outside through the window.
Ling Ruo was drowsy, but she heard the boy's whisper in her ear, "We are the same kind of people."
"what?"
What do you mean by the same kind of people? She didn't understand, and didn't want to waste her time thinking about the meaning of this nonsense. Ling Ruo closed her eyes and fell asleep.
She didn't see that Bai Yu was not sleeping, but was staring at her face for a long time.
They are obviously the same kind of people, why doesn't Ling Ruo admit it? Bai Yu thought of the fire in the village. Everyone thought it was an accident, but he was the only one who knew that the fire was caused by an inconspicuous child.
Just like that explosion experiment.
Those adults never suspected him until they died. It was a pity that the other experimental subjects were too weak and could not withstand the explosion and survive like him.
It was also because of the fire that Bai Yu paid full attention to this girl.
Usually in the mountains, he followed behind her and watched her busying around with a bunch of black things that he didn't know what they were.
He followed her down the mountain and found that she had quietly placed those things near the houses of each villager.
What does she want to do?
Soon, Bai Yu knew the answer.
It turns out that she and he are the same type of people.
But why should we lure those people away?
