Chapter 218: The Jiang Family Hunting Grounds Prohibit the Entry of Cubs
The Anglo mink cub Xiao Yan slowly woke up about ten minutes later. Just as Ying Lian had expected, Xiao Yan was filled with anxiety after waking up, and his conditioned reflex was to hurt the people around him. However, when he found himself in the arms of an adult carnivorous orc, he froze as if he was frightened.
Finally, he heard the voices of his friends and gradually calmed down, then began to cry loudly.
Perhaps because it was frightened, the little cub cried in its animal form, wiping its tears with its little paws. Seeing this, some other cubs who were more susceptible to the infection also started crying.
For a moment, the activity room was filled with the crying of babies, which made everyone feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Don't cry, Xiaoyan, tell Brother Xiaochi and the others what you went through!" In the end, the Persian cat kitten ran to Jiang Rangzhi to comfort his good friend in his arms. It can be seen that she was very afraid of Jiang Rangzhi, but she was willing to give it all for her friends and family.
The Doberman and Maltese kittens also quickly ran to the Persian kitten to encourage Xiaoyan.
On the other side, Zhong Yousheng and others took all the crying babies into their arms. Although they couldn't treat the children in the orphanage so well, they could still be treated specially under special circumstances.
Xin Le also had a few little white rabbit cubs in her hands. Because they were herbivorous and girls, they were still sobbing at the moment, but their eyes were always glancing in the direction of Jiang Rangzhi.
"Don't cry, Brother Xinle will take you to Xiaoyan, okay?" Xinle touched the little rabbits' heads.
The little rabbits seemed very tempted, but considering the terrifying aura Jiang Rangzhi exuded, they finally stayed where they were.
After a long while, Xiao Yan finally calmed down and transformed into a half-orc.
Probably because Jiang Rangzhi had been quietly comforting him, Xiao Yan felt the awkward care from the Black Panther Orc, so after he transformed, he immediately hugged Jiang Rangzhi's neck and sobbed uneasily, "Brother, I don't want to be adopted. I don't want to go back to my room alone..."
"I want to be with An An and the others forever..."
An An, the Persian cat cub who had been pretending to be strong, suddenly had tears in her eyes after hearing Xiao Yan's words. However, she did not shed tears. She wiped her eyes fiercely and continued, "Xiao Yan, what on earth did your adoptive parents do to you?"
Although An An's performance is cute, it is really heartbreaking to see her in this situation.
Ruan Hongling's tears were streaming down her face. She wanted to be close to An An, but she also felt that it would be better for An An to be independent in the current situation.
"My uncle and aunt locked me in a cage and didn't give me any food. Finally, they took me to a place and asked me to hunt rabbits like Qinqin and the others. I was scared and hid. They scolded me for being useless and beat me..."
"I was so angry that I grabbed a few people, and then I was sent back to the orphanage..."
After hearing Xiao Yan's words, the little rabbits hugged each other and trembled, and the expressions of Zhong Yousheng and others became more and more ugly.
Only at this moment did they realize that such a situation could occur in the orc society.
But it is not certain whether Xiao Yan was adopted by a human family or an orc family. Judging from Xiao Yan's words, the place where he was taken is probably still the industrial chain, which means that whether it is a human or an orc, there is a possibility that they will go there, and there is no limit for both.
Ying Lian glanced at Jiang Rangzhi with a complicated expression, then asked, "Is this a hunting ground?"
The only places open to hunting now are Jiang Rang’s family properties, so it should be easier to investigate.
However, Jiang Rangzhi quickly denied this answer: "Young cubs are not allowed to enter the Jiang family's hunting grounds."
Although there was no clear regulation before, it was an unspoken rule among everyone. However, after the parent-child activity day at the third kindergarten, Jiang Gaozuo clearly stipulated that underage orcs were not allowed to enter the hunting grounds, which was also for the psychological safety of the cubs.
As expected, Xiao Yan was adopted last week and sent back this week. Judging from the time, he definitely couldn't enter the Jiang family's hunting ground, so it could only be an underground industry.
"If it has nothing to do with the Jiang family, things would be complicated." Ying Lian didn't expect that she would be involved in illegal and criminal incidents when she came to work in the kindergarten. But then she thought about it and realized that it happened in the Third Kindergarten, which was not surprising. After all, the principal and his people had many secrets.
"Xiao Yan, I'm sorry, but can you tell me what the place they took you to looks like and how many people there are?" Ying Lian walked to Jiang Rangzhi with a smile.
Xiao Yan was not familiar with Ying Lian, so he immediately hugged Jiang Rangzhi's neck more nervously and buried his face in Jiang Rangzhi's neck.
Seeing this, Qiao Ping said softly, "Xiao Yan's condition is still unstable. Why don't we ask again later? Doesn't this orphanage investigate the adoptive family?"
It is extremely cruel to take a cub that has just failed to transform out to hunt.
As a human being, Zhong Yousheng has also heard of many similar human histories. In short, child abuse is not uncommon for humans, especially children abandoned by their parents in kindergartens. Many people think that they are a burden to society and do not need to be taken seriously at all.
Thinking of this, she became a little emotional and said, "Rich people are the best at acting. The orphanage may not be able to find out their interests and hobbies. Besides, who would believe the childish words of a child? Even if Xiaoyan said that he was abused, I guess the staff here would not take it to heart."
The conversation between the few people hurt An An's heart. She had been clenching her fists since she heard about Xiao Yan's experience. Until Zhong Yousheng finished speaking, she stomped her feet and rushed out.
Seeing this, Chi Nian immediately rushed over to stop the other person from leaving: "An An! What are you going to do?"
"I want to tell the dean not to send Xiaoyan away! If you want to send someone away, send me alone!" An An's wrist was grabbed, and she looked like she was about to break.
Only then did she finally shed tears, but she didn't cry loudly, but cried silently.
Although she cried silently, her tears kept flowing. She cried and said, "I know our lives are worthless, but we also have the right to live happily. Xiaoyan is timid, but I am brave. I won't be afraid even if I am sent to hunt!"
An An's hair is short black curly hair that looks very soft to the touch. She is wearing a white skirt, probably to match the furry white ears on her head.
But at this moment her ears were drooping and the hair on both sides of her cheeks were wet with tears.
Ruan Hongling was already crying, and when they heard what An An said, Qiao Ping, Zhong Yousheng and Xin Le couldn't help but cover their mouths.
They really didn't expect An An to be so sensible, so sensible that she wanted to face unknown dangers on behalf of her "family".
Chi Nian held An An in his arms and patted his back continuously. His voice was a little choked, but in order to prevent the other cubs from crying along with him, he held back his tears.
"An An, with Brother Xiao Chi here, how could I let you be sent to that kind of place?" He whispered, "Don't think about sacrificing yourself anymore. You're still a child. It will be tiring to be so sensible."
"Besides, Brother Black Panther just promised you, didn't he? He said that as long as we are here, Xiao Yan will not be sent away, and naturally you will not be sent away in Xiao Yan's place."
When he was a child, he didn't seem to be as sensible as An An. He stayed in his room every day and was not willing to communicate with other children of his age.
But this is normal. He is probably the only half-orc who has lost his childhood memories since the establishment of Orphanage No. 2. He is very confused about his past and future, so it is right for him to protect himself.
Jiang Rangzhi and Ying Lian were also shocked by what An An said. They looked at each other, their eyes filled with anger towards the orphanage and the underground hunting ground.
Although many clues were obtained this time, the people who signed the confidentiality agreement felt that the situation was becoming increasingly disturbing.
The more they found out, the more they felt that the disappeared orcs would not have a good end. What Zhong Yousheng had said in the conference room before, "illegal breeding" and "animal performances", came to mind.
This matter really can't be delayed any longer.
