Lu Anning was puzzled, so Tang Jingyuan pulled her to sit down, and the two of them started chatting while eating.
"The person who showed up was wearing a mask and recognized me immediately. I almost ran away. He claimed to be the one behind the scenes, but I always felt that he didn't look like him."
"how?"
Tang Jingyuan shook his head: "It's just a hunch, there's no evidence. The final answer depends on how the interrogation goes. What happens next is not something we can interfere with."
After hearing Tang Jingyuan's story, Lu Anning realized that Ouyang Ying had been doing these things for many years. To be more precise, she had started to transform the orphanage since she became the director. At first, the children were very happy and thought they had seen hope in their lives. They were full of gratitude to Ouyang Ying.
Little did they know that they were heading towards an abyss.
According to what Tang Jingyuan learned, Ouyang Ying no longer accepted boys after becoming the dean. These girls will be raised carefully by her, and she will invest in teaching them various talent courses. In the beginning, she will only attract donations from wealthy businessmen. After confirming that the other party is interested, she will make in-depth contact with them and let them participate in the "cultivation plan."
The chosen ones are likely girls on the verge of adulthood. Some wealthy businessmen are particularly fond of them. They are in puberty, and some children are well developed. Imagine, looking at the bright flowers about to bloom, those beasts who have tired of the delicacies of the land and the sea will naturally want to change their taste.
Moreover, these people actually have their own circles.
Tang Jingyuan found out that someone was using his name to mess things up, so he got into the circle and traced it to the orphanage. But he didn't expect that before he could find out the truth, a child couldn't bear it and committed suicide by jumping off the building.
In order to keep Tang Jingyuan, Ouyang Ying made an exception and let him attend the carefully prepared Victoria Gala this year. On the stage, all the figures were children who had just reached adulthood. They had numbers on their bodies and were like goods for the rich and powerful to appreciate, with a clearly marked price.
This was a grand feast in their circle, and it was also at this feast that the so-called "Master Pei San" was apprehended. Beneath the mask lay a gentle and refined face. When he was apprehended, he didn't even panic at all, as if he had already anticipated this day.
Lu Anning was furious: "With so many children, isn't there a single one who resisted?"
"The result of resistance is a beating. Remember those scars on Xiaoling's body? Some were left by customers, and some were old injuries, caused by the training at the hands of Ouyang Ying and her men. With such an example, others naturally became afraid and dared not speak out again."
But what Tang Jingyuan learned was not the whole truth.
Lu Anning listened, feeling a pang of indescribable emotion. It was pitiful enough that those children were abandoned, the orphanage their only home, and yet Ouyang Ying was exploiting them to make money, putting on a benevolent front while secretly doing things that were truly sinister.
No wonder, when Xiaoling jumped off the building, she could just as easily blame the fault on Xiaoling herself.
Such a black-hearted person will never think that he has done anything wrong.
Even though the man had been apprehended, everyone was still feeling uneasy. Tang Jingyuan couldn't find the answer in his heart, and Lu Anning, for some reason, felt uneasy.
While washing up, a sudden pain in her head made her unable to stand, but she managed to hold on to the sink. It took a while for her to recover. Even her face in the mirror had changed. In the blur, she seemed to see Ouyang Ying smiling at her. Although he was smiling, it was creepy.
A pair of big hands supported her, and Lu Anning finally came out of her thoughts. She looked up and saw Tang Jingyuan looking at her with a worried look on his face.
"An Ning, are you okay?"
Seeing that she didn't look well, Tang Jingyuan reached out and touched her forehead, and the temperature was normal.
Lu Anning shook his head: "Maybe I'm too tired, I just need a good sleep."
She shook her head, unable to describe the feeling. That night, she slept very restlessly. In a nightmare, she seemed to see the shadow of Ouyang Ying.
In the darkness, he saw her kind smile. Seeing her slowly approaching him, Lu Anning felt scared and instinctively wanted to escape, but she grabbed him tightly and dragged him into the depths of darkness...
In the dark alley, the chaotic figures and eerie laughter intertwined into a fine web that tightly wrapped around her. She was almost unable to breathe...
Lu Anning woke up suddenly with a dull headache. A few rays of sunlight fell on the balcony not far away. After a nightmare all night, he woke up the next morning.
She was soaked and sticky all over, and dragged her tired body to the bathroom to take a shower. However, as soon as she closed her eyes, the scenes in the nightmare came to her mind vividly, as if they were real. Lu Anning was actually a little scared.
She has never been like this before!
Tang Jingyuan was a little worried when he saw that she looked unwell. He was just about to let her rest at home for a day when Lu Anning's cell phone rang.
A strange voice came from her ears. She frowned slightly, hung up the phone and looked at Tang Jingyuan.
"What's wrong?"
"It's from the detention center. Ouyang Ying wants to see me."
She was arrested yesterday and she had to see her early this morning. Lu Anning's intuition told her that Ouyang Ying had many secrets hidden in her and she had to go and see.
Tang Jingyuan sent her to the door and saw that she looked listless, which made him a little worried.
"Are you sure you can do it alone?"
Lu Anning forced a smile: "I'm not that weak."
She waved to Tang Jingyuan with a relaxed smile and watched him leave. The moment she turned around, she thought of Ouyang Ying's smiling face and her heart suddenly felt depressed.
In the dim visitor room, Lu Anning saw Ouyang Ying, dressed in prison uniform and escorted in by a female police officer, her hands and feet cuffed. She looked nothing like the arrogant person she had been in the office that day. In just one night, she seemed to have aged ten years.
She slowly raised her head and they looked at each other. Ouyang Ying pulled the corners of his mouth together and revealed a gloomy smile. The scene before him gradually overlapped with the scene in his dream.
Ouyang Ying moved closer, staring at her with eyes like a cold poisonous snake.
"Lu Anning, do you really not remember me?"
