Chapter 93 Caught in the act!

"The welfare home is divided into different areas, including activity rooms, rest areas, halls, and sports areas."

"The reason for this plan is that the hospital attaches great importance to physical and mental health, and no child has been diagnosed with a mental illness in the past few years."

"At the same time, the facility also employs more than 20 caregivers for the elderly, and each caregiver is a professional."

"."

Inside the courtyard of Mingmei Welfare Home.

Liu Shengjie led the three of them around the courtyard, introducing the place as they walked.

Xu Liang glanced around at the children hiding in the corner, looking at them with curious eyes.

Noticing his gaze, the children shuddered and scattered like birds, disappearing from sight.

He looked away and gave Yang Ruoxi a wink.

Yang Ruoxi immediately understood. She looked at Liu Shengjie, a smile appearing on her face, her red lips slightly parted.

"Dean Liu, it's like this."

"Our charity places great importance on elderly people living alone or with disabilities. Would you consider..."

Upon hearing this, Liu Shengjie immediately nodded and smiled.

"Can, can, can!"

“We have taken in a large number of homeless elderly people.”

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the hall.

Upon entering the hall.

In an instant, the smell of disinfectant wafted over.

Several elderly people with senile faces, dressed in hospital gowns, sat slumped in wheelchairs, basking in the sunlight.

Yang Ruoxi and Wang Chao looked on with curiosity.

The two walked up to a group of elderly people, waved their hands in front of their eyes, but the people did not react at all.

Wang Chao frowned as he looked at the person in front of him.

The man in front of him was about sixty years old, with an old face, wrinkled skin, and missing a leg. He was currently dozing off.

only.
Beneath the drooping skin, the shapes of bruises were faintly visible, but due to the body's advanced age, they were well concealed!

Wang Chao's eyes swept over the other person's body without leaving a trace.

There is a faint scar on the neck, slight finger deformity, bruising on the forearms and elbows, and a missing lower leg.

The thigh, now missing its calf, was still twitching from time to time.

He then shifted his gaze to another elderly woman who was sleeping.

Wang Chao's eyes narrowed, and a thought flashed through his mind.

'The arm has bruises and contusions, and the fingertips have minor scratches, suspected to be from excessive scratching.'

He murmured to himself.

And at this time.

Liu Shengjie, who was standing next to him, suddenly spoke with a beaming smile:

“That man is named Qin Qiangguo. He is 64 years old. Four years ago, he was homeless on the street and was taken to a welfare home by the police.”

“His leg was broken when he was brought here. The welfare home could only pay for his treatment. He currently suffers from dementia and needs caregivers to help take care of him on a daily basis.”

"This man is named Sun Miao. He is 63 years old and suffers from amnesia. He often forgets or misremembers things."

talking.

Liu Shengjie's gaze suddenly fell on the bruises on Sun Miao's arm.

He paused slightly, then began to explain:

"The bruises on her arms are due to her age; even without bumps or knocks, just a touch can cause bruises."

Getting older can indeed cause bruises to appear on the body.

But there will also be setbacks?
Liu Shengjie didn't offer any explanation; a smile appeared on his face.

"The orphanage believes that children are the most important thing. Would the three of you be interested in visiting the children at the orphanage?"

Yang Ruoxi was planning to do just that.

She nodded, stood up, and prepared to follow the other person, but...
Just then, Xu Liang, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.

"Director Liu, where is the toilet at the welfare home?"

bathroom?

Liu Shengjie paused for a moment, then said:

"The restroom is at the corner of the hallway, Mr. Xu, I'll show you around." He was interrupted by Xu Liang before he could finish speaking.

"No need, no need. You go see the child first. I'll come find you after I finish using the restroom."

After saying this, Xu Liang disappeared at the transfer point.

Yang Ruoxi also looked at Liu Shengjie and spoke up:

"Dean Liu, let's go see the child first."

"it is good."

at the same time.

After finishing his toilet break, Xu Liang didn't immediately catch up with Yang Ruoxi and the others, but instead walked in the opposite direction.

The 'tap-tap' sound of footsteps echoed in the hallway.

Before long, Xu Liang walked out of the main building and into the courtyard.

At this moment, the view is wide open, and the scene of the welfare home can be seen in all directions.

According to Huang Yao, Zhang Mang and the other five people usually stayed at the welfare home during the day, but...

But so far, including those on guard duty, he hasn't seen a single one of the six people!
Where is the other party hiding?

The orphanage was only so big, but after walking around it, they didn't see anything.

You're right that people are good at hiding their true nature.

But where's the car?!

How do you hide a fake police car?

What about the 14 victims? Wang Cuiping is just mentally challenged, but that doesn't mean she wouldn't run away or ask for help. If she were suddenly arrested, she would definitely make a scene!
But so far, they haven't heard any news.

If Huang Yao's information wasn't false, and Zhang Mang was indeed at the orphanage...
In a trance.

Xu Liang's eyes flashed, and he shifted his gaze to the locked, abandoned building of the welfare home.

So far, this is the only place they haven't gotten close to!
However, as he lifted his leg to approach, he suddenly felt a tightness in his chest and quickly stopped.

Xu Liang glanced behind him discreetly, but saw nothing.

He then changed direction and went to the welfare home's canteen.

Then, after leaving the cafeteria, we entered the activity room and the lobby.
After visiting all the places...

Xu Liang turned into a corner
Suddenly, he quickened his pace and headed towards the abandoned building!
In just a short while, he arrived at the bottom of the building.

The abandoned building is not tall, only five stories high, and relatively small in scale. Judging from its appearance, it was probably part of a school before it was abandoned.

At the same time, due to years of disrepair, the surface wall plaster has peeled off, it is covered with moss, and the outside is full of weeds.

"Squeak~"

The weeds were trampled and broken.

Xu Liang stopped and stood at the main gate of the abandoned school.

The gate was rotten and rusty, and was also entangled in iron chains. The iron lock had been exposed to rain for countless years, and the keyhole was filled with rust.

He reached out and touched it; his fingertips were covered in rough rust.

Then Xu Liang leaned forward slightly and looked inside through the broken glass.

Inside the building, a thick layer of dust had accumulated, and rotten tables and chairs were carelessly tossed in corners. The darkness of the corridors exuded a quietness, revealing an eerie sense of death.

The entire building exuded an aura of antiquity.

Xu Liang's pupils twitched, and he suddenly stared at the ground.

That deserted, lifeless ground, where no one had ever been for decades.
There was a footprint in the corner.

Xu Liang narrowed his eyes.

Just as he was about to climb through the window, in a daze...
A voice suddenly sounded softly from behind.

"Mr. Xu, what are you doing here?"

Xu Liang paused, remained silent for a moment, and then turned to look.

Liu Shengjie, who was overweight, was still smiling. He appeared a few meters behind him and was silently watching him.

In an instant, a tense atmosphere filled the space between the two.

The smile on Liu Shengjie's face gradually disappeared, and he looked at Xu Liang coldly.

Mr. Xu

"Why are you here?"
