"Meow~~"
A very faint meow rang out.
Shen Bai moved even faster as he walked over.
The small garden was planted with all kinds of flowers, but perhaps because it was summer vacation, there weren't many people staying on campus, so there was no one there.
Shen Bai walked through a few pine trees and into the bushes.
Then, Shen Bai saw a wall covered with trumpet vines. However, the trumpet vines had been neglected for a long time, and the ground was covered with withered branches, rotten leaves, and fallen petals.
Meow~~
There was another meow. Shen Bai looked towards the base of the trumpet creeper and saw a small patch of damp soil. Inside the soil was a small, bloodied cat.
The kitten had lost its fur, but it clung to life, struggling to let out tiny cries, trying to call upon the gods to save it, but the gods did not descend.
Shen Bai stood there, stunned, trembling all over, watching helplessly as the kitten breathed its last.
"Meow~." Another cat meowed, and Shen Bai looked up and followed the sound.
On the old teaching building, a boy wearing a pure white t-shirt was looking at Shen Bai with great interest. He was holding a bloodied and mangled kitten in his black gloved hand.
Shen Bai frowned. Was this the same person who had spoken to Song Yun that day? He had somewhat forgotten.
The boy sneered at Shen Bai, then threw what he was holding toward Shen Bai.
Shen Bai instinctively dodged, but his sleeve was still stained with red blood.
When I looked up again, the person was gone.
Shen Bai looked down at the bloodstains on his clothes, his whole body trembling more violently. His hands were clenched tightly, and he looked at the things on the ground, his head spinning.
"Little White, where are you?"
Upon hearing the familiar voice, Shen Bai turned his head, his face drained of color.
The moment he saw Song Yun, tears streamed down his face. He lifted his foot to run towards Song Yun, but before he could take two steps, he tripped and fell to the ground.
Upon seeing this, Song Yun immediately strode forward and caught the person.
"What happened? Are you hurt?"
He looked down and saw that Shen Bai's face was covered in tears and his clothes were stained with blood.
His heart jumped, and he looked down to check if Shen Bai had any wounds.
Shen Bai, trembling incessantly in his arms, huddled tightly in his embrace, refusing to let go.
Song Yun suddenly noticed something on the ground.
His gaze paused, his eyes turning cold. He picked Chen Bai up, pressed his head against his chest, gently patted his back, and said softly:
"Don't be afraid, Little White, don't be afraid."
Shen Bai never looked up, and Song Yun couldn't even hear his thoughts.
"Oh, baby, don't be afraid, your brother is here."
He quickly carried Shen Bai to the car, and after they got in, Song Yun told Xiao Li to leave.
He took off his suit jacket and draped it over Shen Bai's back, wrapping him up completely, then bent down to wipe away Shen Bai's tears.
Song Yun hadn't heard the child's thoughts the whole way. An unprecedented panic made his hand holding the handkerchief tremble slightly.
Shen Bai was staring blankly, showing no reaction whatsoever, and Song Yun felt a sharp pain in her heart.
He held Shen Bai face-to-face in his arms and continued to soothe him gently:
"Baby, don't be afraid. Can you say something to your brother? Little White? Little friend? Can you say something?"
He shook Shen Bai, but Shen Bai still didn't react at all.
Song Yun wanted to slap himself twice. Why hadn't he kept a closer eye on the child? Why did he have to bring him here?
He imagined the scene there and sent a message to the school's administrator.
The Song family also has a say in this school because they have invested a lot in the school's construction and sponsored many impoverished students. Therefore, the Song family is also in charge at the school.
The person in charge received the message and immediately went to the scene, but the surveillance cameras there had been broken for a long time, so they could only call the police.
Song Yun looked at the still dazed child in her arms and waved to Xiao Li.
Driver Xiao Li immediately ran over:
"President Song."
"Back to the Song residence."
Without delay, Xiao Li got into the car, started the engine, and headed towards the Song residence.
When they arrived at the Song residence, Ji Ning was already waiting with another man in a suit.
On the way back, Song Yun kept talking to Shen Bai, but unfortunately the child didn't respond at all.
Once back at the villa, Xiao Wu ran straight out of the cat villa, looked up at Song Yun's feet, and meowed softly at Shen Bai.
Song Yun kicked Xiao Wu aside and carried Chen Bai to the sofa.
"Meow~~"
Little Witch didn't understand why her little master was ignoring her, so she could only struggle to get onto the sofa and meow softly at Shen Bai.
[Little Witch...]
Upon hearing Shen Bai's thoughts, Song Yun quickly replied:
"Little White? Baby, look, this is Little Witch."
[Little Witch... Song, Song Yun?]
Shen Bai's eyes slowly returned to their senses, as if he was only just beginning to see Song Yun clearly.
His lips trembled, and large tears began to fall.
The kitten... a bad person killed the kitten...
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. We've called the police, and they'll catch the bad guys soon. Xiaobai, don't be afraid."
[Hold me tight? Little White wants a tight hug.]
Shen Bai nestled in Song Yun's arms, and Song Yun patiently coaxed him.
A large, gentle hand patted his back lightly, and a deep, pleasant voice came from his mouth:
"Baby, be good. I'm here. No one will hurt you. Don't be afraid, don't be afraid..."
As Shen Bai listened to his voice, she buried her face in his chest and slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep in less than five minutes.
Song Yun told Ji Ning and the other person to wait while he carried Shen Bai upstairs.
Shen Bai's hands gripped his sleeve tightly.
Song Yun could only gently take off her own shirt, then help Shen Bai remove the blood-stained clothes, and then change into pajamas.
Then she pulled him back into her arms and gently patted his back.
Once he felt that the person was sound asleep, he gently put him down and then turned and went to the study.
"President Song."
"This Dr. Qin is a psychology PhD who studied in the United States and is now a psychology professor at Peking University, as well as a psychology expert at the affiliated hospital of Beijing Medical University."
After Ji Ning finished speaking, Song Yun nodded and then explained Shen Bai's situation.
"Mr. Song, are you saying that Shen Bai spoke in a dream?"
After a pause, Dr. Qin asked again:
"Do you know what he said?"
Song Yun nodded:
"When I heard him call out 'Mom,' I suspect it's related to the car accident he had as a child..."
Song Yun recounted what happened back then and speculated on the cause of Shen Bai's illness.
Half an hour later.
"If it's really as you say, then Shen Bai's inability to speak is very likely due to excessive fright, fear, or trauma of unknown cause."
