Chapter 13: Chapter 8: Orphanage_3
December 15
Li Lei’s feet are rotten, oozing pus, and while he cries and apologizes, Teacher Sun doesn’t seem to want to forgive him, even saying he must continue to stand barefoot in the snow tomorrow.
It must hurt a lot, even though he broke the mirror… But it wasn’t on purpose, oh, I can’t question the teacher’s punishnt… (The words below are scratched out.)
December 22
We have told Xiaoming so many tis, told him not to stand in front of the window after the lights out, or he would be punished if found. But he won’t listen, he seems always to be looking at the seesaw on the playground.
January 4
izi was called to the principal’s office again, and when she ca back, her face was a bit red, her buttons torn off. But she got a leave slip, she now has three leave slips, aning she can make three mistakes without punishnt. How nice. I wish I were called in too.
January 10
My goodness, the seesaw moved on its own, no one touched it, I know Xiaoming did it, should I tell the teachers?
January 17
The teachers are angry, they have locked Xiaoming in the isolation room, calling him “devil” “monster”, but… I feel like they are actually quite afraid!
January 25 (the writing is crooked)
Xiaoming’s out! The principal is dead! Next might be Teacher Zhao!
January 27
He gouged out Han ii’s eyes, he said before, he wouldn’t hurt us!
January 30
Xiaoming is getting more and more violent, he’s always so angry, we need to find a way to escape from here, luckily, we know what he’s afraid of!
The diary ends here. All four of them had an expression of “So that’s how it is.”
It seems this is a very “dark” orphanage… but it seems a student nad Xiaoming suddenly gained so power, and then there was a rhythm to his uprising and revenge killings.
“Supernatural Abilities? So these things really exist… then those people outside can be easily guessed!” Chen Xiao thought.
…
“The worst outco!” Bai Xiong finished the diary and said.
“You know sothing, right!” Jia Renliang said, the uncle who had been consciously lowering his presence now started to furrow his brows, obviously, the content of the diary made him sowhat panicked.
Bai Xiong nodded and said, “I’m a rcenary, my group occasionally cos into contact with so ‘special individuals’, so I’ve heard there is such an organization in the world, they specially deal with events similar to ‘Xiaoming’! Now, it seems that those people outside are most likely from this organization, and we seem to have been treated as lab rats!”
Liu Yi nodded and added, “I once hacked into so governnt databases, many odd cases that couldn’t be solved were all noted with ‘handled by relevant personnel’ and then closed! At that ti, I also speculated about the existence of supernatural stuff and organizations that specialized in dealing with these events, I didn’t expect they actually exist,” he said, shaking the diary in his hands.
Jia Renliang said solemnly, “Is there any other explanation, to be honest, I don’t really believe in these…” then he fell silent with a frown for a mont. After about ten seconds, he sighed helplessly: “… Alright, it seems that it really is the case! So what now?”
The three turned their gaze to Chen Xiao, obviously thinking that although this guy was a bit crazy, he could still co up with so ideas.
Then, they saw Chen Xiao… chewing on a candle! Then… after tasting it carefully, he even swallowed it!
The corners of everyone’s eyes twitched involuntarily.
Imdiately after, Chen Xiao lay on the floor and started scrambling through the dust, as if searching for sothing.!
“Uh… I say, what are you…?” Jia Renliang was the first to snap out of the awkward situation and asked.
“This Xiaoming is afraid of light!” he stood up and said while also picking at the wax dropped on the corner of the table. “Sorry, I shouldn’t rip off your scab, but it’s required for the plot! You can understand, right.”
Chen Xiao’s speech leapt too fast for Jia Renliang to keep up; he just followed with: “It doesn’t matter…”
The others of course knew Xiaoming was afraid of light and also knew that those students gathered in this conference room to avoid Xiaoming, pulled down the curtains to get through the day, and then lit candles at night! But what was Chen Xiao doing chewing wax and scrambling through dust?
“So… what are you doing?” Liu Yi asked again, cautiously, as if he feared a mind-polluting answer.
Chen Xiao finally stopped his actions, hunched his back, hands in pockets, and began to speak thoughtfully, “Judging from the layers of wax, these kids have been here for at least three or four nights, the reason they didn’t escape from the orphanage, we can’t tell yet, but there’s sothing suspicious, which is that one night, while these kids had candles lit, all was fine, then suddenly they ran out of the room in panic, and they never ca back.”
The other three frowned upon hearing this.
“So he isn’t afraid of light?” Bai Xiong asked.
Chen Xiao imdiately answered, “I thought so at first, so I examined these candles, they are all very ordinary, without any special burning substances, the sll is also nothing special, so, Xiaoming should be afraid of light. It’s just that he found so thod of not being afraid of light at that ti.”
“That ans, the flashlight is still useful!” Liu Yi interjected.
“It seems so for now, also, there is a little bit of blood on the floor, the area is large, but shallow, probably because it fell on the floor and was quickly wiped dry,” he said.
