Compared to the other buildings, this white-painted building looks rather plain and old.
The walls above the seventh floor look like they've been freshly painted, while the walls below the seventh floor have occasional traces of moss, and the overall appearance is yellowish and fragmented.
The windows and balcony above were all sealed off with security bars.
If Jiang Ting hadn't pointed it out, no one would have noticed that building.
The life skills teacher, who had maintained a kind smile throughout, showed a moment of surprise.
"This is a special teaching building in our welfare home, and it is generally not open to visitors."
Hearing the word "special" tells you that this building is no ordinary building.
Jiang Ting persisted, asking, "What is the special teaching building used for?"
The dormitory supervisor's face turned completely cold, clearly indicating that she didn't want to answer his question.
It can be said that this teaching building contains the most unbearable present and past of the welfare home.
Just as I was about to brush it off, a stern female voice came from behind the dormitory supervisor.
"Since the guests are so interested, why don't we go and take a look?"
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw the dean walking gracefully towards them from the other end.
"Dean..."
The dormitory supervisor looked at her with a hint of worry on her face.
She pressed her hand down, smiling, "It's okay, there's nothing shameful about it."
Perhaps she wasn't just referring to this one teaching building.
This special teaching building is never open to the public, so this time they made an exception for the program team.
When we arrived at the gate of that special teaching building, we found that the somewhat rusty iron gate was locked with a long lock.
The dean took out his key, unlocked the door, and said, "Please come in, everyone."
Judging from this, he's going to personally show them around this "special teaching building."
Once inside, it wasn't as dilapidated as the outside; it must have been renovated.
The dean led them to a map and pointed the camera at it.
Everyone's eyes fell on the map.
The words marked on it were beyond everyone's expectations.
Psychological counseling room, emergency room, defibrillation room...
So this place is essentially a small mental hospital, and the children living here are all suffering from mental illnesses...
No wonder it's never open to the public; it's probably to protect the safety of visitors and children.
"After seeing this map, everyone should have a better understanding."
The dean's voice remained calm, "I agreed to let the guests in for a visit only to show that they are simply ill, not that they are ashamed of anything."
Upon hearing the dean's words, Gu Yulin raised his head slightly and asked, "Dean, is there anything we can do for them?"
The dean was slightly surprised when he heard his question.
She hadn't intended for them to do anything, but when she thought of the news about Gu Yulin, the dean's eyes flickered.
After thinking for a while, she said, "If you'd like, you can go and spend time with a child with autism."
The best way to treat autism is to increase contact with the outside world and help children stop isolating themselves.
However, in welfare homes... children with autism cannot access the normal outside environment.
The arrival of Gu Yulin and his group undoubtedly gave the child a glimmer of hope.
"good."
Gu Yulin agreed without hesitation.
“I’ll go with Brother Yuyu.”
Xiao Kai clung tightly to Gu Yulin, his gaze unwavering.
[As expected of my internet son!! That's so brave, I can't help but say how cool he is, sob sob]
They are not shady characters! They need more people like Yu Yu to reach out to them! Keep going, kids!!
[Yu Yu is a ray of light that God has shone upon humanity; he deserves his genius, and I will not accept any arguments against it!]
...
A faint smile appeared on the dean's face. "Come with me."
The group headed to the second floor. The corridor was quiet, and the entire environment was shrouded in the cold tones of metal doors, creating a strangely oppressive atmosphere.
The dean stopped at the middle door and flipped through the medical records hanging on it.
They then apologized profusely, saying, "Children are very sensitive to cameras, so please forgive us for only allowing audio recording and not providing live footage."
"Following the principle of voluntariness, guests are welcome to go in and try. It would be a huge achievement if it could even allow the children to make a sound."
Children with autism are not interested in anything in the outside world. If some "unconventional" methods can help them come out of their own world, that would be great.
Gu Yulin was about to take a step when Qin Yueling interrupted, "Dean, let me try first. I can go by myself."
She emphasized the last sentence.
"good."
The dean nodded in agreement and gave each person a ten-minute time limit.
She opened the door and let Qin Yueling in.
She took a deep breath and went into the ward.
The room was decorated much like a hospital. A little boy sat quietly on a white bed, staring blankly out the window, ignoring anyone who came in.
"Hello."
Qin Yueling greeted him nervously, but he didn't react at all.
He gazed quietly out the window; the wind stirred the curtains, and the sunlight streaming through the window seemed to dance around it.
Just as she had learned online, autistic people generally don't interact with others.
This was exactly what Qin Yueling wanted.
"Child, do you recognize me?"
Can you talk to me?
...
Qin Yueling's gentle words were continuously transmitted to the audience's ears through the microphone.
[Lingling is so brave! She was the first to go and counsel autistic children. I definitely wouldn't have dared to be the first one. I knew I made the right choice in supporting her!]
[I was a little upset with her just now... but she probably genuinely cared about the child. Her lack of skill is forgivable, so please don't criticize her.]
[Judging from that sound... I can't really say... I really want to see the live stream!! (I know kids are sensitive, I'm just kidding, please don't scold me)]
...
The iron gate was a soundproof door, so no one could hear what was happening inside. They could only wait silently outside.
Ten minutes later.
To everyone's surprise.
Qin Yueling's eyes were red, with tears welling up, and she opened the door with trembling hands...
