Cynthia’s Cat

Chapter 20: track

"Miss has any news now?"

It was Charlie who was talking, his left hand was wrapped in a bandage, and the gunshot wound on his abdomen made it extremely difficult for him to speak. The wound only needs simple treatment, and if the movement is too large, it will cause bleeding from the newly wrapped wound.

Bungo looked at his brother’s pain, frowning, and his face looked very bad. He held back the irritability in his heart, and looked at Charlie reproachfully at the arrangement, "Don’t you let you go and stay in the car? Why did you come down, your injury is very serious, it's so cold, you don't want your left hand anymore?"

Charlie leaned against the station decadently, lit the cigarette with great difficulty, took a deep breath with the cigarette in his right hand, and the strong smell entered his lungs.

"Failing to protect Miss Cynthia has committed an unforgivable crime. Now let me rest in the car like a waste. How can you let me forgive myself."

Charlie's face was exhausted, the wounds made his complexion look terrible, his chin was covered with scum, and the sense of guilt had been tormenting him.

The dark night makes this town even more mysterious. Pedestrians can no longer be seen on the street. "Boss, don't you think the atmosphere of this town is weird?"

It was McGill who was talking. He frowned. This environment was too familiar for the killer. He seemed to be able to smell the smell of blood in the air.

Bungo looked at the end of the street, and the weird atmosphere became more intense. Every household in the town lights candles covered with lampshades by the door. Is there any strange customs in this town?

"The environment here is too weird. The longer you stay, the more dangerous the lady will be. You must find the lady quickly."

Bungo's uneasy mood grew stronger, and unexpected situations would happen in a strange environment, "Has Molly found it?"

Molly looked at the frowning boss, and quickly tapped both hands on the computer to sort out the data on the computer. "According to the clues provided by Charlie, the boy who took the young lady was named Carl. He lost his mother a month ago. Adopted by the orphanage in the small town, but..."

"But what?"

Looking at the data on the computer, Molly's mood fell to the bottom, "This orphanage is not an ordinary orphanage. Behind it is selling young children. Their backing is the local black sect."

Molly said eagerly: "The boss has to find the young lady quickly, the situation is very bad now,"

Bungo turned his back to the crowd and lit the cigarettes in his hand. The bright dots looked very clear in the snowy night. Nicotine calmed him down. "McGill, go to the orphanage first. If you find the lady, contact us immediately. Make sure Miss safe."

Molly looked at the boss, "Does the boss need to contact the headquarters now? Since I found Charlie, he has not reported to his superiors. The current situation is very bad. The orphanage has involved the black faction. We now have only 4 people. It’s not good for us to fight with them because of the injury. Miss Cynthia’s accident is not something we can bear."

Bungo threw away the cigarette in his hand. The cigarette **** touched the snow and was quickly wiped out by the cold snow. He made a difficult decision. If they can't rescue Miss Cynthia safely now, and if they don't make up for it, Charlie will be severely punished and even expelled from the Kelton family. He and Charlie are good brothers for more than ten years, and he can't let this happen.

Bungo looked at Molly and McGill and said firmly: "Eight hours, we only have eight hours. If we can't save Miss Cynthia, we can only accept the punishment, so we can only succeed and not fail."

On the side of the orphanage, Cynthia and the children in the orphanage have already started to eat dinner. It has been 6 hours since they separated from Carl. The orphanage is not big, but for Cynthia, he wants to find someone who is hidden. Not easy, Cynthia thought distressedly about where Carl was hidden by Laura.

Cynthia, who had no appetite, put down the tableware without taking a few bites of food. Betty, who was in the same seat, was very upset to see Cynthia put down the tableware. Betty and the nerdy boy with his eyes open next to him complained, "Benny, do you think she dislikes the bad food in our orphanage? It's a waste of not eating as much as possible."

Betty was very upset. The orphanage was her most popular when Cynthia did not show up. Everyone liked to talk to her and be friends. Everything changed this afternoon.

In the afternoon, Julie took Cynthia to say hello to the children in the orphanage. Unexpectedly, the boys were all around her and wanted to talk to the new girl. Betty was left out. Cynthia attracted the attention of all the children, and Betty was no longer The most popular girl in the orphanage.

Cynthia looked at the girl across from the table. She was a very cute girl with blond hair. She kept poking at the food on the plate with a spoon, as if she was venting her anger. The girl looked at her with an unhappy face, facing this inexplicable Cynthia's hostility was very puzzled.

Evan leaned close to Cynthia and saw that she had not touched the same food on her plate. He asked worriedly, "Cynthia, you really eat very little. Are you uncomfortable with the food here? I couldn’t eat it when I first came to the orphanage. used."

Cynthia looked at the boy in front of him. He met him when he first arrived at the orphanage. Cynthia looked around cautiously and found no sign of Laura. The girl named Julie was also at the next table.

"Your name is Evan?"

Evan was very surprised. He didn't expect Cynthia to remember himself, "Yes, I am Evan. We met this afternoon."

Evan was suddenly a little shy. He liked the girl like an angel very much. He squeezed his body and turned red, "Can I be your first friend in the orphanage?"

Cynthia looked at Evan suspiciously, "Friend, sorry, my first friend in the orphanage is Carl."

Evan was very frustrated when he heard Cynthia's words. He did not expect that withdrawn Carl would be friends with such a beautiful Cynthia. Bad thoughts breed in his body. He wants to tell Cynthia Karl that he is a strange and lonely child, and that all the children in the orphanage don't like him.

Cynthia interrupted Evan in a daze, "Evan, did Dean Laura call you this afternoon?"

Evan looked at Cynthia hesitantly. He began to struggle. He didn't want to lie in front of the beautiful Cynthia, but Dean Laura told him not to tell anyone who had seen her this afternoon, "No, no, this afternoon. The long didn't find me."

Evan’s nervous expression betrayed him. Cynthia suddenly approached Evan. Her beautiful eyes kept staring at Evan. Cynthia said sadly. "Really? I want to ask if Dean Laura told you about Carl. thing."

Evan quickly denied, "Dean Laura didn't tell me about Carl."

Evan realized that he had missed it, he immediately sealed his mouth, and looked at Cynthia in horror. What to do if he missed it? Dean Laura will punish him if he knows it.

The corner of Cynthia’s mouth rose quietly, looking at Evan, who looked scared, Cynthia deliberately said in frustration, "Evan, what did you just say? I really want to know where Carl went."

Evan held his breath. He thought Cynthia found out that he had met Dean Laura. Fortunately, he didn't find out. The "innocent" Evan really thought Cynthia hadn't heard what he just said.

He looked happily and said, "Cynthia, you just came to the orphanage. I will take you to get acquainted with the orphanage after dinner."

In order to get acquainted with the orphanage as soon as possible and find Carl, Cynthia agreed to Evan.

This is the lobby on the first floor of the orphanage. Evan said, is this Christmas tree beautiful? Cynthia, it's Christmas in a few days, and Dean Laura has prepared gifts for each of our children. Evan was excited to explain to Cynthia about the orphanage. The second floor is our dormitory. I will show you to it. "This is the female dormitory, and at the end of the corridor is the male dormitory. A room can accommodate four people. Oh, by the way, Carl and I share a dormitory, but he doesn’t usually talk, and I don’t know much about him."

Evan did not intend to take Cynthia to the third floor. "Where is the third floor?"

Evan explained: "The third floor is Dean Laura's office. We rarely go up there."

"Oh, that's the case, is Dean Laura's bedroom also on the third floor?"

Evan pointed to the front, "No, the third floor of our orphanage is unoccupied. The dean's bedroom is also on the second floor. The third room on the corridor is Dean Laura's bedroom."
