"Yes, Fan Yu's sister is a spider. The specific situation is a bit complicated. If you have time, can you come to the children's welfare home today?"

"Okay, can I come over at 6 or 7 in the evening?"

"No problem, thank you for your cooperation."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Ge recalled the last words of the welfare home staff: "Fan Yu's sister is a spider?"

Fan Yu is the first special visitor to the horror house and also a very pitiful child. He witnessed his father murdering his mother and his aunt pushing his father into the well. He even lived under the same roof with the murderer for several years.

"That child has no relatives in this world anymore. It is reasonable for me to go and see him."

Originally, Chen Ge was thinking about washing his face and running out under the sun to draw the lottery, but because of the call from the welfare home staff, he lost the mood.

The afternoon business started quickly and it was busy until half past five, but the number of tourists still did not decrease. Chen Ge and his friends had no choice but to extend the visiting time, which lasted until almost seven o'clock.

It was already dark, and Chen Ge had no time to calculate the ticket revenue. He waited until Xu Wan got off work and then hurried to the welfare home.

This was Chen Ge's first visit to Jiujiang Children's Welfare Home. Unlike the cold, dirty, and poorly maintained orphanages he had seen on TV, Jiujiang Children's Welfare Home was very cozy and had its own yard filled with all kinds of flowers and plants.

"Hey! What are you doing? Outsiders are not allowed to come in here casually." The old man guarding the door stopped Chen Ge.

"Hello, my name is Chen Ge, and I'm Fan Yu's family member. Your staff notified me to come here at noon today."

"Fan Yu's family!" The old man looked at Chen Ge carefully for a few times, and his attitude changed instantly: "Wait, I'll go in and ask."

The old man didn't use his cell phone. He ran into the yard and shouted upstairs.

Not long after, a woman who looked about the same age as Chen Ge walked out of the building. She was wearing a nurse's uniform and had soft features, giving people a very friendly feeling.

"Mr. Chen, you are finally here." The nurse motioned for Chen Ge to go with her: "Let me introduce myself first. I am Fan Yu's 'mother'. You can call me Xiao Liu."

"Are you his mother?"

"Well, we have adopted a lot of street children and abandoned babies here. In order to make them feel the warmth of home, we usually let them call 'Mom and Dad' directly. But we don't force them. Most of the children do it voluntarily." The female nurse was easy to talk to. She was shy and didn't dare to look Chen Ge in the eye when talking to him.

"That's great. In fact, I admire you guys." Jiujiang Children's Welfare Institute is like a big family, completely different from what Chen Ge saw in TV dramas.

The nurse smiled brightly. Just as she was about to speak, a window on the other side of the yard opened and a middle-aged man holding a teacup said to the nurse, "Xiao Liu, running around again? Hurry back! From now on, you must keep a close eye on Jiang Ling and Fan Yu! They are getting more and more outrageous!"

The man's voice was a little angry. Xiao Liu was not afraid when he heard it, but he was a little embarrassed: "Yeah, I know."

The female nurse led Chen Ge into the small building. The walls were covered with cute decorations and the corridors were very clean.

"Who was that person just now? The dean?" Chen Ge asked casually.

"He is Doctor Chen. He has a bad temper, but he is a very nice person. He used to work in a big hospital, but he quit and became a doctor here."

"Doctor Chen? Does the welfare home have a dedicated doctor?"

"Yes, we have doctors, nurses, caregivers and cultural teachers. Everyone has different responsibilities, but they are all the 'mothers and fathers' of these children."

Chen Ge nodded. Compared with the orphanage founded by the former principal of Muyang Middle School, this place seemed much more formal.

As they were walking in the corridor, a door next to them suddenly opened and two children ran out holding a toy, chasing after it.

"Jiang Jin, Jiang He! Stop fighting in the corridor. It's already past eight o'clock. Go back quickly!" The female nurse said a few words, and the two children returned to the room reluctantly.

When the door was closed, Chen Ge looked inside. There were two bedrooms and a living room, and there were about six children living in one room.

"Your living environment here is pretty good. The children have toys and new clothes." Chen Ge looked at the watercolor cards on the door, on which the children had written their own names. "Strange, why do all the children here have the surname Jiang?"

"They are all children from Jiujiang, so their surnames come from Jiujiang City. Many street children and abandoned babies without names here use Jiang as their surname." The female nurse said this with an awkward smile: "Of course, there are some children who are used to their old names. We will not force them to change them."

The nurse led Chen Ge to the first room on the left side of the third floor and walked in without knocking.

"Dean, Chen Ge is here."

Next to the windowsill, there was an old man in his sixties watering the flowers. He was wearing reading glasses and looked like a retired teacher.

"Finally you're here, take a seat." The old man looked as if he had seen a savior, which made Chen Ge even more confused.

"Old man, if you have something to say, just say it. Did Fan Yu cause trouble in our orphanage?" Chen Ge felt like he was attending the parents' meeting on behalf of Fan Yu's parents, and he was the kind of parent who was left until the end and had a private talk with the teacher.

"Then I'll be frank." The old director gave the female nurse a look, as if he was afraid of a bad influence, and asked her to close the door first: "You are the guardian designated by Fan Yu's immediate family. You should know more about Fan Yu's situation than we do. This child is not unsociable. How should I put it? He has no concept of family, collective, and happiness. We have tried every way to help him, but the results are very poor."

Chen Ge knew Fan Yu better than anyone else, so he understood the orphanage's confusion: "I'm sorry to trouble you."

The dean waved his hand and said, "That's nothing. I've seen children with even more withdrawn personalities. The main problem now is that not only has this child's personality not been corrected by us, he has also corrupted several other children who are receiving treatment here."

"Leading people astray?" Chen Ge suddenly understood why Doctor Chen was so angry when he saw Xiao Liu.

"Many children who have been abandoned by their families or have had tragic experiences will have psychological problems to varying degrees and need psychological counseling." The old dean smiled bitterly, "Fan Yu is one of them, but this child always contradicts the doctors. Not only does he not cooperate with treatment, he also says strange things to other children. Several children's conditions worsened because of his words, so we had to send them away."
