  No matter what wrong Fan Yu’s aunt had done, at least in this moment, she was looking out for Fan Yu.

  ”I’ll try my best to help you look after that child.” Chen Ge agreed straight away without hesitation; of all the people involved in the body hiding case, Fan Yu should be the most innocent.

  ”Actually, you don’t need to worry about that.” The police officer behind the interrogation table also came over, “We can help you contact the children’s welfare center for assistance, and as long as you plead guilty with a good attitude, you might even be able to see your child in the future.”

  ”My child?” Aunt Fan Yu looked at the policeman, a change slowly appearing in her dull expression, her mouth cracked open as she looked over the policeman’s shoulder, somehow revealing a smile, “Okay, I’ll tell you all I know.”

  The police entered the normal interrogation process, Chen Ge felt that it was not appropriate for him to stay here, so he took the initiative and asked to leave.

  After leaving the city precinct, he took a taxi to Fan Yu’s residence.

  This matter seemed to be over, but in reality, there was still the biggest unresolved question, a question that only Chen Ge knew, and the answer to this question that only Fan Yu could answer.

  The sky cleared and the sun rose above the horizon, but the warm sunlight didn’t seem to shine into the intricate alley.

  Getting out of the car, Chen Ge ran into the deepest part of the alley according to the route he remembered.

  He found the place where Aunt Fan Yu was renting, rushed to the second floor and knocked on the door of the room, and after knocking continuously for a few minutes, the sound of a card spring turning rang out from inside the iron door, and the door was opened a crack.

  Chen Ge pulled open the door of the rented house, to his surprise there was no one inside the house, he stood in the doorway for a long time, the sunlight didn’t even feel warm on his body.

  ”Fan Yu?” Chen Ge entered the house and felt a little colder.

  There was no one in the living room or kitchen, so Chen Ge quietly walked towards the bedroom.

  He tried pushing the door, and just like the first time he entered Fan Yu’s room, the door was unlocked and was easily pushed open.

  The thick curtains blocked out all the light, and there were no lights on in the room, making it a bit gloomy, and there were clumps of waste paper thrown on the floor.

  Chen Ge casually picked up a piece of it, and the drawing on it was still of a black house crowded with red villains.

  ”Why did you throw away all these paintings? Are the paintings unsatisfactory?” Chen Ge took the painting in his hand and looked towards the desk, Fan Yu was sitting at the desk, his back to him, seemingly in a daze.

  Chen Ge carefully avoided the paintings on the floor and walked closer before realizing that the desktop held the only painting that hadn’t been thrown away.

  On the white drawing paper, a house with black lines was drawn, and inside stood a lone black villain.

  ”Where are those red villains?”

  Chen Ge hadn’t expected Fan Yu to answer, but who knew that Fan Yu twisted his head to look at him and said softly, “They have a new place to live.”

  ”Moved?” Chen Ge associated it with the twenty-four extra school uniforms in his haunted house and vaguely understood something, “Are you friends with them?”

  The boy shook his head, his eyes fixed on his painting, his hand reached into the drawer and took out a cardboard box and handed it to Chen Ge.

  ”For me?” Chen Ge looked into the cardboard box, and inside were twenty-four school cards with twenty-four different names written on them. There was also a group photo in the center of the school plates with twenty-four students standing with their backs to the camera.

  These twenty-four names should be the reason why the last classroom was created, and now Fan Yu handed over the twenty-four names to Chen Ge.

  After delivering the school license plate, Fan Yu did not say another word, and no one knew what was going through his mind at that moment.

  Both sides did not open their mouths, Chen Ge looked at Fan Yu at this moment, and really could not bear to ask the question in his heart.

  Just as the two were silent, footsteps came from the corridor outside the rental house, and a man and a woman stopped at the door.

  ”The street office said it seemed like this place.”

  ”Why is the door unlocked? Is Fan Yu home?”

  Hearing the rattling, Chen Ge ran out to take a look, “Who are you guys?”

  ”We are the staff of the Jiujiang Welfare Institute, this is our ID, according to the requirements above, we are going to take Fan Yu for a medical checkup, and then go through the procedures related to the placement of the children of those who have served their sentences.” After that man and woman finished speaking, they looked at Chen Ge with slight doubts, they didn’t understand why a stranger who wasn’t on the profile would suddenly appear in the child’s home.

  ”Fan Yu is in the bedroom, this child has his own ideas, I’ll have to trouble you guys in the future.”

  ”I should, this is our job.” The woman entered the bedroom to get Fan Yu, while the man stood outside looking at Chen Ge, seemingly not quite at ease with him.

  Realizing that the woman had entered the bedroom, Fan Yu’s reaction was more intense, he grabbed the painting on the table and ran towards the outside, as if he was preparing to escape from this place.

  ”Catch him!” The woman shouted from inside the house.

  The man at the doorway was in tacit agreement with her, and when Fan Yu ran in front of him, he directly grabbed Fan Yu’s arm.

  The man was very experienced in dealing with children, and he easily locked Fan Yu’s hands so that he wouldn’t be scratched by Fan Yu nor would he hurt the child himself.

  The grabbed Fan Yu struggled desperately, the Chen Ge on the side couldn’t stand it anymore and communicated with the man for a few sentences, only then did the other party let go of Fan Yu.

  Grasping a painting in his hand, the regained freedom of Fan Yu did not escape again, as if he already knew it was futile.

  Watching Fan Yu being taken away, Chen Ge finally didn’t hold back, he chased after him and squatted in front of Fan Yu to ask the question that had been troubling him for a long time.

  ”You know that heaven is in the well, you witnessed everything, why don’t you go and stop them?” Chen Ge had never treated Fan Yu as an ordinary child, and that room full of little red people already said a lot.

  Fan Yu, who had been expressionless, thought seriously for a while after hearing Chen Ge’s question, he still didn’t answer, but only raised his head and showed an innocent smile at Chen Ge.

  Watching Fan Yu leave, Chen Ge’s back had been drenched in sweat at some point, and it was the first time he had ever seen Fan Yu show a smile.

  Holding the cardboard box that Fan Yu gave him, and carrying the twenty-four school cards and a group photo of his back, Chen Ge took a taxi back to New Century Paradise.

  Early in the morning, he went to the police station and came to look for Fan Yu, delayed for a long time, and when he returned to the paradise, it was already half past ten.

  After the rain cleared, today is another good day to visit the park, there are a lot of tourists, Chen Ge’s mood is slowly getting better.

  As soon as he entered the gates of the park, he saw a lot of people crowding in front of his haunted house from afar.

  At first he thought they were tourists, and only when he got closer did he realize that something was wrong, not only did these people not line up to buy tickets, but they were also very overbearing and blocked the very front.

  ”What’s going on?” Chen Ge walked closer and realized that Uncle Xu was also there, as if he was theorizing something with the other party.

  Squeezing into the crowd, they saw Chen Ge coming over and looked like they had found the right person, surrounding Chen Ge in the center.
