The child welfare institution where Shang Ke and Feng Jun live is located in Bancha County, on the southwest coast of country E. Together with them, a total of 21 orphans are taken in. Although the living conditions are average, they are well-equipped. Not only professional nursing staff, but also psychiatrists and social workers regularly come to check the living conditions of orphans.
The situation of Shang Ke and Feng Jun is rather special. They were smuggled over from abroad, their identities have not been confirmed, and they cannot log in to the adoption system within a year. In other words, they can only live in orphanages this year, and even if someone wants to adopt them, they must wait until a year later.
Most of the 21 orphans in the orphanage had varying degrees of disability. Shang Ke and Feng Jun, two healthy and handsome boys, stood out among them.
The dean led them to a small room with two bunks and four beds, only two of which were covered with bedding, and the other two were empty.
"Children, this is your room, do you still like it?" The dean said to Shang Ke and Feng Jun with a smile.
Feng Jun held Shang Ke's hand, his face was tense, and he didn't say a word.
Shang Ke raised his head and smiled: "I like it very much, thank you, Dean."
This sentence was said in Chinese. Although the dean did not understand it, he could probably guess what he meant.
She arranged the two of them and left after another warning.
Shang Ke took Feng Jun into the room, took the door behind him, looked around, and said with a smile, "We will live here in the future."
Feng Juan watched him put his backpack on the head of the bed, and then lay down on the bed with his limbs stretched out. The relaxed look made his uneasy emotions dissipated a lot.
Feng Jun lay down beside Shang Ke and looked sideways at his smile, feeling that as long as he was with him, there seemed to be nothing to be afraid of.
"Coco, can I sleep with you at night?" Feng Jun looked at the bed opposite him with a bit of disgust in his eyes.
"Okay." Shang Ke stretched out his hands to measure the width of the bed, and smiled, "One bed is enough for both of us."
Hearing this, Feng Jun immediately showed a smile on his face.
Shang Ke couldn't help pinching his face: "Yes, smile more to avoid facial paralysis in the future."
Based on his experience in the three worlds, he felt that the reason why this guy grew into a cold-faced hell is definitely due to the lack of exercise of the facial muscles when he was a child.
Feng Jun rolled his eyes at Shang Ke, turned his head away and ignored him.
In the evening, Feng Jun got into Shang Ke's bed after washing up. The two little people leaned against each other tightly and spent their first night in the orphanage peacefully.
Life in an orphanage is not as boring as one might imagine.
Because of the language barrier, the dean arranged a teacher for Shang Ke and Feng Jun to teach them E-language in addition to normal schoolwork. The teacher's name is Rema, a woman in her forties. She is not an orphanage worker, but a volunteer.
When she saw Shang Ke and Feng Jun for the first time, Rima liked them very much. Originally, I was only responsible for teaching them to learn the E language, but later, I also covered other courses.
Rema found that the two children were very personal, one was taciturn, but well-behaved and polite, smiling like the warm sun in winter; the other was stern and serious, with a bit of alertness in his eyes, but he was diligent and hard-working and had a strong ability to learn.
Probably because of their previous experiences, both have a maturity that ordinary children of the same age do not have.
With Rima's care, Shang Ke and Feng Jun's life in the orphanage was simple and fulfilling, but this simplicity was broken after a month.
On this day, Shang Ke and Feng Jun were helping to clean up the rubbish on the lawn when they suddenly felt two strong gazes coming towards them. Shang Ke's brows twitched, and he glanced around the surroundings quietly, and found that a figure seemed to flash past outside the yard.
Shang Ke frowned, a little doubt in his heart. Haven't that group of people let their guard down yet? Just two kids, so what
For the next two days, Shang Ke saw suspicious figures outside the orphanage, and finally no longer had any luck.
According to the original development, the original owner Bu Nuo was adopted by the Weedon family within less than a year, so it is not clear whether Feng Juan was attacked again later, and the system did not specify. Now it seems that he must have experienced a series of unexpected changes in his childhood.
If the guess is true, then they can no longer stay in the orphanage. This is not only for Feng Jun, but also for the rest of the orphanage.
Shang Ke borrowed the phone from the dean and called Detective Rowan.
"Shang, I didn't expect you to call me?" Rowan said lightly, "Did you miss me?"
Shang Ke only replied: "Detective Luo Wen, we seem to be being watched."
That afternoon, Luo Wen sent several plainclothes to guard outside the orphanage, and he found a suspicious person. When they tried to track him down, the man fled in alarm and was not seen again for several days.
But this does not mean that Shang Ke and Feng Jun are safe. After Luo Wen asked his superiors for instructions, he took the two children away from the orphanage and arranged to live in his own home.
Rowan didn't understand why the other party kept staring at the two children. Even if they knew something, they probably wouldn't be able to provide much useful information. After all, at such a young age, I'm afraid they can't tell what happened, let alone they don't understand the language.
What are those people worried about
"Shang, since you can understand the E language, can you tell us everything you know?" Luo Wen looked at Shang Ke seriously.
"I don't know what to tell you." Shang Ke and Feng Jun sat in a chair, surrounded by five or six adults.
Rowan and the others twitched a few times when they heard his fluent e language.
"Tell me where are you from?"
"I'm a vagabond." One sentence omits the background investigation.
"Who did you learn your e-text from?" Rowan asked again.
"A wandering artist from country E." Shang Ke replied without changing his face, "I lived with him for a while."
"What about Feng Jun?" Luo Wen looked at Feng Jun again.
Feng Juan understood this sentence, and replied, "Except for the name, I don't remember anything else."
Professor Ramson next to them translated it for them.
Rowan rubbed his eyebrows. If he hadn't been sure that there were only two children sitting in front of him, he almost thought they were lying.
"Shang, how long have you been on the boat, have you seen anyone, or have anything special happened?" Rowan asked again.
Shang Ke thought about it seriously, then shook his head.
"Don't worry." Rowan squatted in front of Shang Ke and said gently, "Shang, close your eyes."
Shang Ke slowly closed his eyes.
"Okay, let's reminisce." Rowan said softly, "You and other children were taken to a bed and locked in the creation cabin, surrounded by darkness..."
Shang Ke was not a real child, so he naturally knew that Rowan was guiding him with memory. He searched the original owner's memory, and then his body froze.
The narrow and closed space is crowded, hot and humid, and smells bad. The hull was shaking, some people vomited, some people lost control, some people groaned in pain... Every day, a different boy or girl was pulled away, and when they came back, they were covered in scars and tortured to the point of being out of shape. And some, never came back.
Shang Ke seemed to be able to sense the original owner's despair and fear, and suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were hazy. He stared at the crowd silently, as if to say: Please, don't ask any more.
Obviously there are no tears, but it makes people feel that he is crying silently.
"Don't ask any more!" Feng Jun stood up abruptly and shouted coldly, "We don't know anything!"
Several people were stunned for a moment, a little embarrassed, and a little apologetic, and naturally the questioning could not go on.
After everyone left, Rowan said embarrassedly to the two children, "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat? I'll call you."
Rowan is a bachelor, and he knows just by looking at the rubbish in the house. He doesn't know how his superior would agree to let him take the two children back to his home, and he is not afraid of being raised to death by him.
Shang Ke calmed down and said to Luo Wen, "I saw a supermarket next to me when I came here. Why don't you buy some ingredients and make it yourself."
"Uh, I'm not very good at cooking." It doesn't matter if he eats the food he cooks. If it is used to feed the children, it is estimated that he will get food poisoning in a few days.
"I will." Shang Ke said sincerely, "In order to thank you for your care, let me cook in the future."
"You?" Rowan looked suspicious.
After Shang Ke neatly prepared a sumptuous dinner, Luo Wen could only be stunned and happily accept this "delicious" fact.
Not only that, but Shang Ke also kept Rowan's kennel in good order, but in two hours it was transformed into a new life.
Rowan seemed to hear the sound of the house crying with joy...
"The water is ready, come and take a bath." Rowan shouted outside the bathroom. The housework was all covered by Shang Ke, so I would give everyone a bath.
Two pink and jade-carved children quickly appeared in front of Luo Wen, making him suddenly feel that raising a few such children would be pretty good
Feng Jun was as indifferent as always, took off his clothes, stepped into the bathtub, and sat aside to wait for Shang Ke.
Shang Ke also took off his shirt, revealing his thin upper body.
Luo Wen was about to leave the bathroom, when he inadvertently caught a glimpse of Shang Ke's body, and was stunned in place. The thin body was covered with all kinds of scars, big and small, including burns, whip wounds, knife wounds, and many indistinguishable wounds.
Rowan had seen photos of these scars in the hospital before, but seeing it with his own eyes now is another experience. He could not imagine the terrible abuse this child had suffered in the past. Those scars seem to be accusing the cruelty of this world.
"Detective Rowan, what's wrong?" Shang Ke looked up at Rowan who was standing behind him.
Rowan looked into his eyes, no resentment, no cowardice, only a clear and bright.
"Coco." Feng Jun rested his hands on the edge of the bathtub, staring at Rowan with a bad look: Uncle wretched, have you seen enough! Get out now!
When Shang Ke heard Feng Jun calling him, he ignored Luo Wen and ran over to wash bubbles with Feng Jun.
The two washed their heads and rubbed their backs with each other, and they were very busy.
Seeing this, Rowan smiled, turned and walked out of the bathroom.
The next day, Rowan arranged for another police officer to protect the safety of the two children, and then rushed to the police station with Shang Ke's delicious breakfast. In the past, he either didn't eat breakfast, or just settled on the roadside, but now that he has Shang Ke, he immediately feels a happy life.
With Rowan's consent, Shang Ke can use the computer in his study at will. So the first thing he did after breakfast was to turn on the computer and check the configuration and network information.
Shang Ke's hacking skills are currently only at the intermediate level, and he can barely be called a master. However, he found that his biggest advantage is not the level of technology, but his technical knowledge ahead of the world for at least 7 years. The seven years in the computer field have been earth-shaking.
For example, this computer's firewall is full of loopholes in Shang Ke's eyes. Using these loopholes, he can easily hack into other people's computers. Of course, some large companies or relevant state departments are estimated to have to tip a lot of trouble.
Shang Ke didn't plan to use his advantage to make waves on the Internet. He just wanted to open a protective umbrella for him and Feng Jun, collect all information about the enemy, and let them be invisible under the surveillance of the Internet.
