Chapter 139 Unfortunate News
"Snapped!"
Qiqi threw a ball of small snowballs and hit Feng Mian on the back.
"Hit it!" Her little hands were red from the cold, but she was still reluctant to leave the snow.
Feng Mian symbolically threw a few snowballs at her, and they all rubbed against her side and smashed crookedly.
Ye Wucheng spent most of his time watching them throw snowballs, and occasionally he would hit a few snowballs to fight back when he was hit by Fengmian. In the end, he was hit by Fengmian's more violent snowball attack, so he put on his hat and hid behind the tree.
"Boom-"
The church bell rang at noon at twelve o'clock.
Kiki stopped rubbing snowballs: "It's time for lunch!"
She is looking forward to it: "Today's food is very rich!"
Feng Mian doesn't care about these things, he just hopes that he can stop seeing those hard, brick-like breads and dried vegetables that taste like plastic paper.
They received lunch from the nuns in turn.
Feng Mian looked at the vegetables and ribs on the plate, and silently put the vegetables into Ye Wucheng's bowl: "When you grow your body, you should eat more vegetables, so that you can grow taller."
Ye Wucheng raised his head: "Why don't you eat? You are not as tall as me."
"What do you know, did Kong Rong let Li know?" Feng Mian said seriously, "I'm giving you the chance to grow taller."
Ye Wucheng was forced to eat twice as many vegetables in plastic paper: "Then I thank you."
"Xiao Er seems to be infected, do you know?" There were whispers from the dining table next to him.
"Really? Haven't the churches and classrooms been disinfected? How could someone be infected?"
The whispered discussion quickly spread the news like a tide, and the joy of the festival was instantly diluted.
Only then did Feng Mian think of Xiao Er, no wonder he hasn't seen Xiao Er in the past few days, since the last time he was said to have been adopted but was not picked up, Xiao Er has been silent for a while.
Many children speculated that because he was too bad-tempered, the couple who came to adopt him didn't want him.
Feng Mian saw him hiding in the toilet in the middle of the night and secretly wiping tears.
After that, he became taciturn, and he seemed to have decided to change his mind and become a good boy. He seemed to be eager to have a family, so that blow made him a lot weaker.
After that, he became polite and studious. At the time, Feng Mian was disappointed that since Xiao Er had changed, no one could help him with his bread.
I didn't expect to hear the news after a while.
Feng Mian naturally knew what the so-called infectious disease was. The infection they said was just an excuse to take the experimental product away. This excuse undoubtedly sentenced him to death.
Xiao Er must be locked in the basement now, replacing the dead experimental subjects as new containers.
In the early morning of last month, Feng Mian saw a few nuns leaving the church with a cart, and they hurried back to the church after two hours.
When I came back, the object covered with white cloth on the cart had disappeared.
The next day, he smelled the weird metallic smell in the basement from the nuns, which was the blood of strange beasts.
What was pushed out that night was the corpse of the experimental subject, and they took the failed experimental subject out for destruction, and completed the destruction of the corpse under the cover of the night.
Since some experimental subjects were destroyed, there must be new experimental subjects to fill them up.
Obviously, the second child who has already had a physical examination is their best choice.
Feng Mian absent-mindedly took two bites of food, and the sudden news gave him a clear understanding of his current situation again.
He couldn't let the ease in front of him wear down his fighting spirit.
Stay here and wait until the next experimental subject fails, it is very likely that bad luck will fall on everyone here, and anyone may become a substitute.
He didn't know what would happen if he died in the crack under such circumstances, he didn't even know where his real body was.
Or the time in his own body went backwards to become what it is now. If this is the case, then when he died, he really lost everything.
"Are you afraid?" Ye Wucheng asked suddenly.
Feng Mian came back to her senses: "Fortunately, you don't... Forget it, you are not afraid that I will know."
Qiqi came over after sending the dinner plate away: "Have you heard that Xiao Er is infected."
Her originally happy expression was replaced by fear and worry: "I thought that no one would be infected again. Xiao Er has obviously improved, so why is he still infected?"
She was brainwashed by the nanny to really think that being a good child would keep her from suffering.
If there is a God, then this sentence is still possible, but this is not death caused by disease at all, but the evil result of desire.
The researchers' desire for power and power requires a bunch of homeless kids to pay the price.
Feng Mian comforted her: "Don't worry, it's fine, you've always listened to Mammy."
Ye Wucheng glanced at him, his eyes said, do you believe this kind of thing?
Qiqi nodded heavily: "You are right, it will definitely not be our turn!"
The snow fell heavily outside the church window again, and the footprints left by people walking in the morning were covered by snow again.
The sky and the earth are white and pure.
The atmosphere throughout the afternoon was very quiet. After the news of Xiao Er's illness spread, no one was in the mood to celebrate the festival.
It wasn't until the evening that the atmosphere among the children eased up a little.
Fireworks explode in the sky, turning the snow into color, the lights on the Christmas tree flicker, and Christmas carols begin to play in the church.
Everyone stood in the church and prayed, with their heads bowed, as if they were the most sincere believers in the world.
Everyone is covered with the warm yellow light of the chandelier above the church. They whisper piously, and the warm illusion spreads in the church.
"Lovely Father, please help us remember the birth of Jesus Christ."
"So that we may share in the singing of angels and the joy of shepherds."
"Deliver us from our sins and teach us to have a pure heart."
"..."
"Forgive my past, forgive my present."
Ye Wucheng's voice came from between the prayers: "Why don't you pray?"
Feng Mian looked at the devout gesture of the nun in front of her with her eyes closed: "You didn't pray either."
They seem so eager to be redeemed, but they fall into the abyss voluntarily.
He was a little curious, were they real believers?What do you think about when you pray?Is it begging their father to forgive all these sins?
Ye Wucheng followed his gaze: "Prayer is the most useless thing. I have never seen Heavenly Father lend a helping hand in times of crisis."
He looked up at the snowflakes falling from the skylight: "Only cowards depend on the gods."
The prayers stopped abruptly.
Mammy smiled and said, "Let's go to the Christmas tree to get presents."
The children below cheered and rushed towards the door together.
Feng Mian casually took two gift boxes from the tree and threw them to Ye Wucheng who was standing in the corner: "For you."
He took the gift and left the church without opening it.
Feng Mian opened the box in her hand, there was a small handful of fireworks sticks inside, give it to Qiqi, every little girl should like this thing very much.
