On Tuesday, the baptism day, during the afternoon of hymn singing, in the woods behind the church, Bai Liu and Bai Liu were planning their escape plan for Wednesday.

Xiao Bailiu touched the coin Bai Liu gave him. Bai Liu half-knelt down and taught him how to use some of the functions of the coin. Then he suddenly said, "Oh, by the way, do you remember the little girl Liu Jiayi whom I asked you to protect?"

"Her?" Xiao Bailiu frowned. "I think she's very strange. She seems to have adapted very well to this strange welfare home and has quickly figured out many of the rules. I don't think she needs my protection at all."

"Is that so?" Bai Liu thought, "This little girl's health is only 50. I had two guesses about this before."

Bai Liu looked at him: "What guess?"

"First, this girl is poisoned. This is very possible. The information I have obtained so far can already verify this, but there is a very strange point about this -" Bai Liu said, "This speculation cannot explain why Liu Huai is bound to her, nor can it explain why Liu Huai's health has been weakened by 50%."

Bai Liu was debugging the coin operation panel while talking to Xiao Bailiu. "But her situation of being forced to weaken, I thought about it later, and it's actually a bit familiar to me. I've encountered it twice before, but it's usually because a certain attribute of the player exceeds the balance range of the game, so the system will force the player to weaken in order to adjust the attributes of various aspects of the game."

Xiao Bailiu quickly understood what Bai Liu meant: "Are you saying that Liu Jiayi's attribute is so strong that the system must weaken her health?"

"Not only is it weakened, but Liu Huai is also bound to restrict her from clearing the game." Bai Liu said as he called up the store panel for Xiao Bailiu. "When I first played the game, I was forcibly weakened by the system at the end of the game, but that was because I showed skills that destroyed the balance of the game, which was beyond the normal game route."

"But Liu Jiayi was weakened and restricted right after entering the game. This is not what would happen to a new player who is playing the game for the first time."

Although Xiao Bailiu had never played a game before, he was always able to follow Bai Liu's thoughts very quickly: "You mean, Liu Jiayi is very likely a veteran player?"

Bai Liu touched his chin. "I do have such a guess. And judging from the way this game handles it, your strengths will be weakened in some way. For example, in the second game, a player's luck was so strong that it affected the gameplay, and his luck was also reduced. This Liu Jiayi is likely to have some special personal skills in health - such as restoring health or something like that."

Xiaobai frowned: "But didn't you say that few people have this skill?"

"Yes, so this further narrows my scope of suspicion." Bai Liu thought, "From what I know now, I think Liu Jiayi may be a player called Little Witch, but as far as I know, this player's skills are not just recovery skills, but also very strong attack skills."

White Six's review: "Sounds like a tough player."

"But I want her soul." Bai Liu lowered his head and looked directly at Xiao Bailiu, saying shockingly, "I need a player like her."

"The more troublesome thing is that she already knows that I can manipulate players by manipulating their souls. She will not easily agree to a deal with me. I can only start from other places and use Liu Huai to restrict her. And she is now hiding her identity from Liu Huai, which proves that Liu Huai is very important to her."

Bai Liu touched his finger bones and thought, "We can start from Liu Huai's perspective to test her and see what she really wants."

"Combining various information and maximizing benefits, I have made a plan." Bai Liu tapped the coin on Xiao Bailiu's chest, "You take Mu Ke and Liu Jiayi with you to escape, but she probably won't let you succeed. You will probably run into various problems during your escape."

"But it doesn't matter. I have made a fault tolerance plan for you. I will stage a raid at the private hospital to delay your arrival. This means you will have another chance to escape."

"Then the plan has been carried out to this point, and there are two possible outcomes." Bai Liu opened his eyelids and looked at Xiao Bailiu, "The first is that I die in tomorrow's raid."

"If this is the case, you don't need to worry about Liu Jiayi the next day and just run out. Just take Mu Ke with you. We will give up buying Liu Jiayi's soul and execute the plan based on running out. There are cars over at the hospital. You can steal one and use the item [Passenger's Blessing] to run out with Mu Ke. This way you can avoid most monsters."

Xiao Bailiu stared at Bai Liu without moving his eyes: "What if those investor players in the hospital come to arrest me?"

"I will have someone throw my body into the ward of other monster patients, and then I will be sucked blood by these monsters and attacked with poisonous mist until my mental value is completely cleared. The corpse will transform into a patient monster like those monsters, but at the same time I can become a more aggressive monster. When you escape, I will try my best to stay awake in the hospital to delay the players who are chasing you to buy time, so as to protect you." Bai Liu said calmly.

Xiao Bailiu was silent for two seconds, then he spoke in confusion: "In order to save me, you will be transformed into a monster and stay in this so-called game copy for the rest of your life. Don't you care? Why would you do this for me?"

"Because I also hope you can do this for me, Xiao Bailiu." Bai Liu spoke softly, leaning forward and looking directly into Xiao Bailiu's black eyes, which were a little hazy due to confusion. "If I don't die in this raid, I hope you will become a monster after my death - then we will enter into another plan."

"I will completely control Liu Huai, and then I need you to find Liu Jiayi to lower her guard against me and let her believe you and your investors, that is, I really want to save her. This way, it will be easier for me to gain her trust and thus obtain her soul." Bai Liu lowered his eyes and looked at Xiao Bailiu. His voice became softer and softer, like a piece of silky white cloth covering a person's face, slowly floating down when Xiao Bailiu looked up at him, "Do you know what to do?"

Xiao Bailiu looked straight at Bai Liu.

Bai Liu said: "Let her kill you with her own hands, and then let Mu Ke throw your body somewhere where it can be transformed into a monster to help me."

Xiao Bailiu paused for two seconds, and then he said sarcastically with a blank expression: "My dear investor, you may be fanciful. Not everyone is like you, who likes to selflessly dedicate themselves to others. I will not do such a stupid thing for you."

Bai Liu smiled and touched Bai Liu's face, but Bai Liu turned his head away indifferently. He continued without paying much attention: "I know you very well, Bai Liu, maybe even better than you know yourself. You really wouldn't do such a stupid thing for others."

Bai Liu's eyes slid down to the coin on Bai Liu's chest. He placed his hands on Bai Liu's thin shoulders and slowly leaned forward to put his forehead on the coin. Bai Liu closed his eyes and rested his head on Bai Liu's chest. His tone was pious and serious: "But you would do such a thing for yourself."

Just as I am willing to die for you, once you know that I am you, you will definitely be willing to die for me.

"Coins are very important. You can explore it carefully." Bai Liu raised his lips. "Pay attention to the player's name and some small things in the system prompt. You will get a surprise - for example, you have always wanted to know, who am I?"

Xiao Bailiu, holding the coin, slowly frowned.

…

With blood on the corner of his mouth, Xiao Bailiu looked at Bai Liu calmly, "Now everything is going according to your plan. Although Liu Jiayi thinks you are a scheming bad man, she should believe that you really want to save her. You gave up your own life to protect Mu Ke, me, and even Miao Feichi, which made Liu Jiayi think that you have some special compassion for children, but unfortunately, it is not the case."

"You're a complete liar and a jerk." Xiao Bailiu commented without any emotion. "Her first impression of you was completely correct."

Bai Liu shrugged his shoulders and accepted Bai Liu's evaluation of him without any concern: "How is it, are you okay? Can you come with us later?"

Xiao Bailiu coughed, lowered his head and wiped the corner of his mouth, frowning slightly: "...We can't leave this tunnel during the day, and even at night, there are very limited places to move around."

"This tunnel will be closed after all these deformed child monsters return to their nests. It will not be opened until after 9 o'clock in the evening. You'd better leave here quickly, and I don't recommend that you take me with you."

Xiao Bailiu slowly raised his head. His pupils had dilated because of death. He looked at the indifferent calmness and said, "What I have done just now is the greatest value I can give. My internal organs have begun to liquefy in this extremely physically exhausting state. By night, I may become a real corpse, or rot into a pool of rotten mud used to cultivate these mushrooms in this tunnel."

As he spoke, obvious corpse spots appeared on his face and hands, and were spreading rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye - Xiao Bailiu was decaying at an abnormal rate.

When little Mu Ke heard Bai Liu say this, he couldn't help crying again, and Mu Ke looked away with red eyes, unable to bear to look at the ferocious little Bai Liu.

And Bai Liu was just like the dead Xiao Bai Liu. He and the fourteen-year-old corpse were highly consistent, a kind of tranquility and calmness that was almost inorganic.

After listening to what Xiao Bailiu said, Hou Bailiu just nodded slightly and said, "Well, it's really useless for you to go with us, so you can just stay here and rot."

Xiao Mu Ke had tears in his eyes. He turned his head sharply to look at Bai Liu. His tone and expression were extremely distorted. He questioned Bai Liu in an incredible tone: "You just let him stay here to rot?! Are you a beast?!"

Xiao Bailiu snorted at Xiao Mu Ke's question, which came from the bottom of his heart. There was a fishy liquid at the corner of his mouth. He tried hard to lift his increasingly heavy eyelids and smiled casually, "Mr. Investor, personally, I like your beastly look. This is the way I expected you to grow up. Please keep it up."

"I'm just a beast in this game." Bai Liu also raised his lips, and he and Xiao Bailiu laughed lazily, "When I'm not playing games, I'm an ordinary, law-abiding worker."

Xiao Bailiu gave him a look and said, "What a disgusting disguise."

Bai Liu suddenly leaned forward and hugged Xiao Bai Liu. His chin rested on Xiao Bai Liu's forehead, his lips pressed against Xiao Bai Liu's messy hair that was stained with blood and dirt, and he whispered in a whisper that only the two of them could hear: "Your body will rot here."

"But even if you become a corpse, a monster, or a pile of slime, you will never be trapped in this disgusting orphanage or this disgusting game."

Xiao Bailiu tilted his head back and looked into the eyes of Bai Liu who was hugging him. Bai Liu had a faint and fake smile on his face. His dark and rippleless eyes reflected the gradually weakening Xiao Bailiu.

He lowered his eyelids and placed a kiss on Bai Liu's forehead as if praying for him: "-Because I will take your soul away, little friend."

Xiao Bailiu closed his eyes in a daze.

————————

————————

As Xiao Mu Ke came out of the tunnel, he looked back at Xiao Bailiu in the tunnel. His eyes were red from crying, and his voice was filled with tears: "Are we really going to leave Xiao Bailiu there?"

While Bai Liu was dragging Liu Huai out, he casually replied to Xiao Mu Ke: "He can't get out, and the tunnel is about to be closed."

After Bai Liu got everyone out, he turned around and saw Xiao Mu Ke staring at him with hostility, like a cat that was about to pounce on him and give him two claws in the next second: "You could have saved him."

"But he agreed to die for me." Bai Liu gave a fake smile, shrugged his shoulders and said something, which stopped Xiao Mu Ke who wanted to hit him in his tracks. "Are you going to attack the investor that Xiao Bai Liu had managed to protect?"

Xiao Mu Ke was heartbroken by Bai Liu's words. He glared at Bai Liu fiercely and finally had to compromise with a sob.

Now they were under the statue. Bai Liu looked at Liu Huai who was being transported here and was dying. He then glanced at the extra soul banknotes of Liu Huai in his own soul wallet.

This was the transaction between Bai Liu and Liu Huai in the tunnel just now after Bai Liu got the coins.

Although Liu Huai was unconscious, he still remembered what he had agreed with Bai Liu, so the soul transaction with Liu Huai was successfully completed.

Bai Liu could feel that Liu Huai was willing to give him his soul, not only because he had made an appointment with Bai Liu before, but more because after Liu Huai knew the truth about Liu Jiayi, this college student who had always had a strong desire to survive actually decided to die.

Bai Liu looked down at Liu Huai's lifeless eyes. This man hadn't said much during the whole journey he followed them here.

The reason why Liu Huai was so afraid of dying in the game was because it was said that the game would recycle people's souls. That really sounded like a terrifying thing, because he didn't know what the game would do with his soul, and not being able to escape after death was indeed more frightening than death itself.

So Liu Huai hoped to sell his soul to Bai Liu - this was a kind of protective storage and liberation, at least allowing him to die peacefully.

But even if Liu Huai really wanted to die, at least he couldn't die now.

Bai Liu looked at Xiao Mu Ke: "Do you know where Liu Jiayi is?"

Xiao Mu Ke: "It's the second one in the craft classroom on the first floor of the building behind the welfare home."

Bai Liu helped Liu Huai up.

After Liu Huai lost his arms, he lost his balance. His head fell on Bai Liu's shoulder. He half-closed his eyes weakly and gasped. Bai Liu turned his head and patted Liu Huai's shoulder. Liu Huai slowly raised his head. He looked around in confusion and unresponsiveness: "...Are we at the welfare home yet?"

Bai Liu looked at him calmly and said, "We're here. Wake up, Liu Huai. Go meet your sister. You'll feel better soon."

"Will I feel better after seeing her?" Liu Huai seemed to finally sober up a little. He shook his head weakly and smiled miserably. "No, it will only make me more and more painful to see her. I have completely lost the ability and desire to protect her. I can't protect her. I am not a competent brother."

"A player who loses his desire cannot survive in this game."

Mu Ke looked at Liu Huai, who was gradually losing his life, with a little anxiety. Because he had felt Liu Huai's strong desire to survive, even if he could gain a skill from Liu Huai's death, Mu Ke couldn't bear to see Liu Huai like this, and couldn't help but encourage him: "Don't give up so early! We will try our best to find a way to keep you alive! And isn't your sister a healing player? She can definitely save you!"

Liu Huai lowered his head and looked at the dagger on his waist. As his desire diminished, it was slowly becoming translucent. He laughed abruptly, tears suddenly fell, and he said in a low voice:

"I... actually have been working very hard and trying very hard to live. Many things in this world are very simple and easy for you, such as eating fried chicken, going to a good university, and having a normal and enjoyable future. But for Jiayi and I, these are things that we have to risk our lives to achieve. The only brightest thing about the future that we can share with each other is each other's existence."

"But this only existence has lost its meaning now. Living has become... too tiring." Liu Huai's tears flowed down his nose and through his clenched teeth. He looked at Bai Liu and cried very ugly. "Bai Liu, if you were Jiayi's brother, you would easily understand what she is thinking and know how to better protect her and balance her resentment and suspicion, but I can't... I'm too cowardly. I can never protect her from anything..."

Liu Huai said softly, "You promised my Bai Liu that if I died, you would definitely bring her a bright future. Don't let her soul be eroded by darkness. Don't let her soul be taken away by this game, even if it means death."

Bai Liu looked at Liu Huai, whose face was covered with tears: "Yeah."

After saying this, Bai Liu raised his shoulders to better support Liu Huai who was leaning on his shoulders. He looked forward, calm and peaceful, "But that will happen after you die. Now, Liu Huai, you have sold your soul to me. At least make something worth the soul I bought before you die."

"I spent a whole point to buy you." Bai Liu said calmly.

Liu Huai lowered his head again because of fatigue. He couldn't help but chuckled when he heard Bai Liu's words.

Liu Huai's gaze changed from empty to solid, and the dagger on his waist changed from translucent to solid again. He exhaled, "Okay, I will make sure that you, the buyer, get what you paid for."

The second to last handicraft classroom on the first floor of the back building of the welfare home.

Xiaomiao walked in front stiffly and tremblingly.

Miao Feichi and Miao Gaojiang followed behind, but their faces looked extremely bad. Miao Gaojiang's ankle was still bleeding, which made him walk slowly and left marks. But they really didn't dare to stop, the attack power of that monster child was too strong.

Miao Feichi was panting. He couldn't imagine himself being chased in a duel with a newcomer who had only participated in two games. He didn't even have a chance to stop and tie a belt, and he was almost wiped out.

Previously, Miao Gaojiang commented on Bai Liu, "Don't you think he is scarier than those league players?" Miao Feichi thought that Miao Gaojiang was exaggerating, but now thinking about Bai Liu's blood-stained smiling face in the dim tunnel, Miao Feichi only felt a kind of fear as if he had escaped death.

The monster child chasing them in the tunnel was clearly Bai Liu's child. Although no one knew what skills Bai Liu used to control his child to become a monster, given that his child was already dead, this guy clearly only had one path to pass the level as an [Investor].

With only a little health left and one of his hands chopped off by him, Bai Liu would be finished as long as he died. But he still dared to chase them alone and was just a little bit away from successfully destroying their two-man team that was very famous in the league!

If he could leave this game alive, Miao Feichi never wanted to encounter this lunatic again!

Thinking of this, Miao Feichi looked at Xiao Miao Gaojiang who was walking in front of him. He looked a little impatient because of fear: "Where is that brat Miao Feichi? Is he in the same craft classroom with that blind boy?"

Xiao Miao lowered his head stiffly. He nodded hesitantly, but his hands were clenched tighter and tighter, and cold sweat trickled down his face.

He knew that there was something wrong with Liu Jiayi. That smart blind little girl must be the one who killed Miao Feichi and Bai Liu. Her abilities would even make those [investors] jealous.

However, he did not tell the two investors who forced him to come that there was a problem with Liu Jiayi, because this was his only loophole to exploit and his only chance to escape - as long as Liu Jiayi faced these two investors, he would find a chance to escape!

He doesn't want to be drained of blood by these strange investors!

Xiao Miao Gaojiang trembled and stopped in front of a craft classroom opposite the toilet: "Miao Feichi and Liu Jiayi slept here last night."

Miao Feichi kicked the door open. There was nothing inside except dust and the smell of blood. Miao Feichi walked in and took a look, and suddenly stopped in front of a colorful box full of scraps of cloth. The bloody smell came from this box. Right above the scraps of cloth were two rag dolls. One had its limbs and head torn off, and looked very much like Bai Liu's doll. The other had needles stuck all over its body, and its expression was frightened and it was crying, very much like Miao Feichi's doll.

A strange, chilling premonition made Miao Feichi slowly push away the soft and fragmented plush fabric, revealing his terrified face that was densely pierced with needles.

It was unknown how long he had been dead. His skin had begun to swell and mushroom-like spots had begun to grow on his face. His body had been twisted at a very distorted angle and stuffed into this cloth box, like a soft rag doll, with his mouth stuffed with cloth.

Miao Feizhi froze in front of the cloth box. Miao Gaozhuang walked up to take a look and also stood still.

After a while, the two looked at each other with ugly faces. Miao Feichi was the first to speak with gritted teeth: "Who drew the blood of this brat?!"

Miao Feichi waved his hands irritably: "Dad, draw your child's blood first, and go back to the hospital to cultivate your blood ganoderma. The first one to pass the level is the best."

They brought blood-drawing equipment when they came here, because after Miao Gao's attack on the nurse NPC, they didn't know if there would be any sequelae in the hospital - such as no longer helping them or drawing blood for them. So before Miao Feichi and his team went down the tunnel, they also took some blood-drawing syringes, infusion tubes and the like from the intensive care unit.

Seeing that he was about to have his blood drawn by the investor, Xiao Miao Gaojiang finally panicked. He took two steps back and tried to run, but the classroom door was locked. Seeing Miao Feichi and the others approaching him with syringes, Xiao Miao Gaojiang retreated step by step. Finally, when his back hit the wall, he collapsed and yelled, "I know who drew Miao Feichi's blood! It was Liu Jiayi!!"

Miao Gaojiang and Miao Feichi looked at each other and asked, "Liu Jiayi? Why did she draw blood from other children?"

Xiao Miao Gao's back was against the wall. He swallowed and said, "She must have wanted to save her brother. She was waiting for her brother to come and take her blood. In order to prevent the blood from being insufficient, she seemed to have also taken Miao Feichi's blood. Bai Liu was also killed by her."

After leaving the hallucination in the hospital that made his mental state easily affected, Miao Gaojiang was a little more sober now. He listened to what Xiao Miao Gaojiang said and squinted his eyes and muttered to himself: "To prevent insufficient blood, draw blood from others? Liu Jiayi is a child, how can she know that a person's blood is insufficient? This sounds like something that an old player who is familiar with the rules of the second-level game would do."

"But didn't Liu Huai say that this was Liu Jiayi's first time participating in the game?" Miao Feichi was not good at thinking about these complicated questions. He asked back with a headache, "Even if Liu Huai and Bai Liu are working together now, Liu Huai didn't seem to be lying at that time."

"That's right." Miao Gaojiang pondered for a moment, his eyes falling on the ugly rag doll with a strange shape, "And if this Liu Jiayi was one of them, she wouldn't have killed Bai Liu's child. I'm a little familiar with this method of killing, but I can't remember where I've seen it for a moment..."

If it was a player in the league, Miao Gaojiang would repeatedly watch the other side's small TV video. This somewhat special way of killing people with the doll attack skills is something Miao Gaojiang will definitely never forget once he has seen it. However, Miao Gaojiang does not have such an impression of the players in the league, which shows that this Liu Jiayi is not from the league.

But if there is nothing eye-catching, Miao Gaojiang will not spend extra energy to watch the other party's small TV, nor will he leave any memory. However, among the players he has noticed, there is no such blind person...

He had this vague feeling that he had seen this doll before, but this doll did not seem to be a key prop. In addition, his mental state was very poor now, so Miao Gaojiang could not remember it no matter what.

Miao Gaojiang frowned and was still thinking, but Miao Feichi had already interrupted him: "She is an old player, right? I have no impression of this little girl who plays with dolls. She should not be a great player. Now the key point is where did this little blind girl go with my child's blood?"

"We have to find this little blind girl and take her blood back. We also have to draw her blood. Only after we pass the level can we get a guaranteed reward!"

As he spoke, Miao Feichi's gaze fell back on Xiao Miao Gaojiang. With a gloomy expression, he pushed the double swords in his hands forward a little and pressed them against the child's neck: "Tell me! Where in this orphanage did Liu Jiayi hide?!"

"I, I don't know!" Xiao Miao cried out in a state of collapse, "Although she can't see, she knows our escape route and the teacher's movements. She is very familiar with this orphanage, much more familiar than us. Moreover, the teacher's key that we stole when we escaped before was also on her, so she can enter any room or classroom. If she wants to hide, she can hide in all the rooms of the orphanage!"

"If you want to find her, you can only contact the teacher and look for her room by room."

"Fuck!" Miao Feichi cursed, "How long will it take to find this!"

Miao Gaojiang's face was also very gloomy. "There is no other way. Your blood is on this blind man. Mu Ke is in their hands. They also have that monster kid. We can't easily snatch him away. We don't have enough blood. We can only go one by one. Let's go find the teachers at the welfare home first and explain our identities as investors. They should cooperate with us to find this little blind man."

The father and son did not know that the passage connecting the welfare home and the hospital would be closed after nine o'clock in the morning. Xiao Bailiu's amazing fighting ability made Miao Gaojiang, who was whipped by the opponent, even more vigilant.

Miao Gao used up his S-burst defense skill in the explosion last night, and his stamina bar was drained. Before his stamina bar is restored at 9 o'clock tonight, his defense power will not be able to increase to 10,000. Facing an opponent with high attack power, Miao Gao will be more cautious.

Even if we guess that this passage might be closed, who knows whether the monsters inside can come out during the day?

After all, the church was obviously a children's shelter. I wonder if it would have the same shelter effect on these dead deformed child monsters? So Miao Gaojiang would not easily turn around and confront Bai Liu and the others. Miao Feichi was also obviously still afraid of the little monster Xiao Bailiu and would not easily turn back.

Then their only way to pass the level is to find Liu Jiayi who is carrying Miao Feichi's blood.

It was clearly a very safe plan to pass the level after weighing all aspects, but why... Miao Gaojiang always felt that something was wrong.

Miao Gaojiang felt as if he had missed some very important details, but his mind was not clear enough at the moment. It was like thinking about the truth through a layer of misty plastic sheet. It only took a needle to pierce the sheet for him to see what was making him nervous.

But his brain could not grow the needle that could pierce through all the confusion; the needle was grasped by his fear.

——————

Bai Liu and the others followed Miao Gaozang to the handicraft classroom. After opening it, Bai Liu went in to check around just like Miao Feichi did. He sniffed and quickly dug out Miao Feichi's stiff body from the fabric box.

Little Mu Ke tried not to scream, and Big Mu Ke's face didn't look good either. Only Bai Liu squatted down thoughtfully and looked at Xiao Miao Fei Chi's face, which was full of needles under the skin. Then he looked up at Liu Huai who was supported by Mu Ke: "From the way she killed people, it seems that your sister Liu Huai has a strong sense of revenge."

Liu Huai smiled bitterly and shook his head.

If Xiao Miao Fei Ya wanted to eat her flesh, she would suck Xiao Miao Fei Ya's blood.

But it was thanks to Xiao Miao Fei Chi's interfering move, otherwise, judging from Liu Jiayi's original plan, she should have wanted to draw Xiao Bai Liu's blood - but the little witch finally let Xiao Bai Liu go. Originally, given the little witch's cruel style of killing everyone, it would have been more realistic to directly draw Xiao Bai Liu's blood and cut off Bai Liu's entire chance of survival.

But she didn't do it in the end.

Liu Jiayi let Xiao Bailiu leave the craft classroom with his own blood, which was considered to be the last glimmer of hope for Bai Liu. Of course, it is also possible that Xiao Muke was knocking on the door outside. If he attracted the teacher, Liu Jiayi would not have time to draw blood and leave the classroom, so she had to let Xiao Bailiu go. This is also possible.

People's thinking is complicated, especially that of an intelligent and overly precocious eight-year-old girl. Bai Liu never underestimates children's gaming ability. He cannot be completely sure of the psychological motivation behind every step Liu Jiayi takes. The only thing he can be sure of is that Liu Huai is very important to Liu Jiayi.

Bai Liu stood up and looked around: "Liu Jiayi is not in the classroom, Mu Ke, do you know where Liu Jiayi might be hiding?"

Xiao Mu Ke shook his head slowly in thought: "There are so many places she can hide. It's hard to find her."

Also, Miao Gaozhuang and his gang are looking for Liu Jiayi. If they meet them on the road and they find out that they have lost Xiao Bailiu's help, it will be hard to say who will live and who will die.

After analyzing the information, Bai Liu didn't think it was a good decision to look for Liu Jiayi in the welfare home. Bai Liu's eyes fell on the weak Liu Huai——

——Because they don’t need to look for Liu Jiayi at all. As long as Liu Huai is with them, Liu Jiayi will come to them on her own.

"Let's go back to the church. It's a safe area for children. Miao Gaojiang and Miao Feichi probably won't want to go back to the exit of the statue. That's the exit of the monster children, so it's relatively safe for us." Bai Liu made a decision with a calm look in his eyes. "Let's go back and wait for Liu Jiayi to find us."

————————

Dusk was falling, and the night spread into the orphanage from the edge of the horizon like an ominous black mist.

It was already 8:30 in the evening. Ten hours had passed since Miao Feichi and the others came out of the passage. Except for Miao Gaojiang, who had not yet recovered his strength and took a break for an hour and a half at noon to recover his strength, they were all led by the teacher to search for Liu Jiayi in each room of the welfare home.

But even now, they still haven't found the kid!

This little girl seemed to have magic powers. She completely disappeared from the orphanage and there was no trace of her anywhere.
