Yu Tong yawned and continued to think about what the three children talked about before going to bed.
It was a group of brightly dressed outsiders who turned the town into hell, burning, killing, looting and committing all kinds of atrocities.
At first, Yu Tong suspected that this world, which seemed to be a magical fantasy, was actually the fourth disaster novel in which players descended into another world.
He really wanted to ask the children whether those outsiders liked to run into the townspeople's homes and rummage through their drawers, bump into passersby for no reason, jump while walking, or like to say strange things.
But he was just a little chicken and it was not convenient for him to speak.
Chen Xi had never played games, so he couldn't imagine these things.
However, the more Yu Tong listened to the children's conversation, the more he felt that the group of outsiders were not like game players, but more like simple invaders.
Because they all dressed properly, not in shirts and flowery shorts. They didn't look weird, and although they behaved arrogantly, they didn't say anything strange.
Most importantly, they don't seem to have the habit of chatting with passers-by.
This is very un-gamer.

After arriving in this world, the Dream Cat prop was automatically renamed Dream Chicken. Seeing the prop react, Yu Tong activated the prop and entered Chen Xi's dream.
Although entering the dream is useless, it can improve his favorability, and he quite likes to play in Brother Chen's dream.
After an unknown amount of time, Chen Xi was awakened by the dull sound of footsteps in the corridor.
He opened his eyes and took out the pocket watch given to every child in the orphanage and looked at it. There were still ten minutes until three o'clock.
The rules say that nap time is between 1:00 and 3:00, which means you can't get up before 3:00.
Chen Xi fumbled in the quilt for a while and took out the little yellow chicken that was sleeping soundly.
He just had a dream. In the dream, he did not notice anything unusual in the morning and answered the priest's questions in class.
When he was being punished and about to be ripped open, the chicken in his pocket suddenly grew bigger and became as big as a dragon.
The chicken crushed all the nuns and priests to death and killed the monsters in the corridor. He took other children with him and rode the chicken to escape from the orphanage and flew into the beautiful sky.
Chen Xi raised a faint smile and couldn't help but kiss the chick in his hand.
After three o'clock, two nuns came into the room and began to announce the rules for the afternoon.
At 5:00 am, we have a one-hour theology class in the north lobby. At 7:00 am, we gather at the cafeteria entrance for lunch. At 9:00 am, lights out and we go to bed.
There is no specific scheduled time period and you can move freely within the orphanage, but you cannot enter any doors.
There was only one dessert after the meal, which was a bonbon.
There are no cats in the orphanage, so if you hear a cat meowing, don't respond.
Since the number of people in the orphanage has decreased significantly today and the workload of counting people is very heavy, there will be no dormitory inspection tonight.
The nuns who talked about the rules were not nuns of love. They left after they finished speaking without making things difficult for the little villain.
It's only 3 o'clock now, and there are still two hours before class.
Chen Xi sat on the bed for a while, then got out of bed and started looking for other children's belongings.
Little Coal Ball hesitated and said, "Isn't stealing bad?"
Chen Xi dug out a few bottles of wine and placed them on his bed. "Today's rules don't say you can't steal."
"But they just today..."
"We could be in the same boat as them at any moment. Only by being well prepared can we survive. Besides, they are already dead, and these things will eventually be thrown away by the nuns as trash."
Lily, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly whispered, "The Bear Warriors said they'll be back tonight. If they find their things are missing when they come back, they'll be mad."
Yu Tong stuck his head out blankly.
Chen Xi turned to look at Lily in surprise, "What do you mean?"
"What this means is that we have to wait until they are completely dead before we can take anything."
Chapter 44 The Second World (7)
Maybe Lily was too young and her ability to express herself was limited. Or maybe it was her little Warrior Bear, so that's all she was told.
No matter how much Chen Xi asked, Lily would only repeat the same few words over and over again. She couldn't explain what "the dead will come back" meant.
After staring at Lily for a few seconds, Chen Xi put the things he had taken out back in their original place.
The little girl hugged her teddy bear and whispered a fairy tale to it.
The system rubbed its matchstick hands, [Why do I feel like this kid is being weird?]
"Me too, and I find it very novel that she is still alive."
【? 】
Half an hour before class started, the children left the dormitory one after another.
Little Coal Ball didn't dare to go with Lily, so he tried to invite Chen Xi, but the introverted little villain ignored him.
Lily was still holding her beloved teddy bear. It seemed that the dormitory was also not suitable for living things in the afternoon.
Before, while the children were chatting, Yu Tong ran behind the cabinet and looked into the hole in the wall.
The other side of the hole should also be behind the cabinet, and only a little light can be seen on the other side.
Yu Tong crawled into the hole and ran over. Opposite was the next dormitory.
The dormitory was empty; it seemed all 12 children were dead.
In the spirit of exploration, Yu Tong walked around the dormitory next door and found a diary under the pillow of one of the children.
The owner of this book was an illegitimate child of a large family before entering the orphanage.
The diary is the little boy's outlet for venting. Most of the content is about who beat him up today, any changes in the stupid rules, and the wishes he wants to fulfill if he has the chance to leave the orphanage in the future.
The contents of two of them attracted Yu Tong's attention.
[Year, month, and day (I don’t know what day it is, but another day has passed.)]
My lower bunk bed found a dog hole in the wall covered in withered vines behind the chicken coop. There were no rules against going to the backyard today, so we snuck out of the hole and found a cemetery outside. Behind the cemetery was the forest near the town.
