Chapter 90 - Tragedy.
Yang Dao and Laohu Bai jumped off the plane. The two could see the outline of the landscape below. The boy led the dive trajectory while Laohu Bai followed. Vaguely identifying the orphanage building outline, the boy pulled onto the parachute string. Laohu Bai followed his actions with no hesitation.
…
Below in the orphanage, a few older kids were still awake and had anxious expressions on their faces. One of the girls named Tasha asked, “Say, Brother Cao, what do you think will happen to the three?”
Cao was a guy. He was 14 and was the oldest among the seven or eight kids here. He said, “I don’t know, Sister Tina called Brother Dao a few hours ago. Probably he will be able to help them.”
Tasha nodded, then she glanced outside the window and closed her eyes to pray, “God, please send us your aid. Help those who are in suffering, heal those in pain. Please, I will not eat chocolate for 3 months. No, 1 month. Please.” she was 12 years old. To an orphan chocolate was a delight and luxury, this girl gave up her delight to help her fellow orphans who were in suffering at this moment.
The girl opened her eyes and saw two neon figures slowly descending to the orphanage. She rubbed her eyes twice and said, “Brother Cao, what is that.” as she pointed her finger to the two figures falling from the sky.
Cao looked outside and was surprised. As Yang Dao and Laohu Bai came closer to the garden in the orphanage the dim lighting reflected on them, their appearances became more prominent. Cao spat out in disbelief, “Brother Dao fell from the sky with an angel beside him.”
Laohu Bai was nothing short of an angel in looks, her white hair made her have an appearance of a fairy tale creature. The four boys were mesmerized by her appearance. Just as they were lost in thought, Yang Dao and the girl touched down. The kids rushed out to greet them.
…
Yang Dao landed and quickly tugged down the parachute and so did Laohu Bai. The boy was just packing it up when he heard a lot of footsteps rushing towards him. He turned back only to catch two girls jumping at him. He sighed, “I missed you two as well. Nina, Tina.” ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
The two girls who jumped at him were twins called Tina and Nina. It was not known who was the elder one and who was the younger one. They were unable to talk when they were sent back to the orphanage, the two girls were already in dire conditions. They were seemingly being strangled by their father when the police came. To save them, the constable shot down the maniac father, who was shouting that these two kids were the demons who ate their mother and killed her during the birth.
In the assault by the maniac, the two lost the ability to speak. Yang Dao was 5 when they came over and due to him being a silent one he liked to stay by their side and took care of them. The bond between people was very deep in the orphanage. Despite being an introvert on the surface, Yang Dao did his best for everyone since a young age and everyone in the orphanage knew that. He started to work part-time when he was ten and since then he would bring back stuff from his savings.
Coaxing the two girls who hugged him with gentle pats on their heads he asked, “Cao, what happened?”
Cao woke up from his trance and said, “Brother Dao, today was the outing day. Sister Tina took ten children under ten years to the elder square. It happened that some rich philanthropist was visiting the square as well. But something happened, Sister Tina did not tell us anything when she came back. Only seven children came back. She said that the orphanage is now running on your money so she will inform you while asked us all to go to sleep. She was very exhausted so Tasha gave her some cough syrup. The seven children are all quiet as well not telling us anything. We don’t know what to do.”
Narrating the situation, the dam he built to hold himself broke and tears started pouring out. He was younger than Yang Dao, now seeing him in front of him, he could not hold on. His tears fell and everyone else also started crying. Yang Dao did not know how to handle this, he turned to look at Laohu Bai who was just as clueless as him.
He sighed as he thought it would be better to have Feng Yun beside him at this time. He said, “Sister Bai, did your people get anything?”
Laohu Bai replied, “Let me make a call, Young Master.” Yang Dao took out her phone from his pocket and returned it to her. Her dress did not have any pockets so she handed it to him on the plane. She took back the phone and made a call, both the people did not care about the crying children or it could be said that they did not know what to say and how to make them calm down.
Watching Laohu Bai going to the side to make a phone call he said to the kids, “See guys, I do not know how to console you, but I assure you this time will pass. If we are done wrong by anyone then I will make them pay. Okay. Believe in me for a bit and do not cry.” his calm voice made them all calm down a bit.
Laohu Bai walked back after a few minutes. Her aura was akin to a tiger ready to shred the prey. Yang Dao said, “Calm down, Sister Bai.”
The girl immediately woke up. Her aura was so harsh that it scared the children. She said, “I apologize for the mistake, Young Master. The report I received is not very good. Please come with me.”
Yang Dao sensed that it may be not something that could be disclosed to the children so the two people walked to the side. When they were out of the earshot Laohu Bai said, “Young Master, seemingly the square is under terrorist attack. The three children are dead.” her energetic voice turned helpless when she said the last sentence.
Yang Dao stood there stunned in a daze.
