Chapter 224 Awakening

After seeing the next few scanned images, Yu Sheng couldn't help but frown.

There were normal story paragraphs and illustrations, but there were also wrong lines and wrong characters that were obviously caused by typesetting errors or poor printing quality, and even blank spaces between paragraphs where there was obvious lack of content. The content was fine at the beginning, but it became more and more serious as time went on.

He exited the image page and edited a message to ask what was going on, but while he was still typing, Baili Qing's message had already been sent: "Did you see it?"

"I saw it," Yu Sheng immediately typed back, "but what about the following content? I saw a lot of typographical errors and missing parts."

"Poor quality printing, so most of the books in this batch were recycled and destroyed from the market that year," Baili Qing seemed to have known that Yu Sheng would ask this question, and she quickly sent a response, "But it is obvious that the Council cannot supervise all corners of Jiecheng 100%, so there will still be some books left at the end of the market - and then one of them was donated to the welfare home at that time... It may be used to declare charitable assets to make up the number, or it may just be an unintentional act."

After a while, Baili Qing sent a follow-up message: "We found the asset list left when the management of the orphanage was transferred in an old file of the Council, which contains the record of this "social donation book", To be honest, it's not easy to find it - only the name and the publication period are found, and the pictures sent to you are later matched in other databases through other channels.

"But on the other hand, since most of the circulating versions have disappeared, this book has become a 'cold treasure' in some book collectors' circles. The Secret Service is still trying to find the existing same edition. According to the transaction tracking records, the last "Squirrel Knight" that appeared in the formal channel was sold by a private collector a month ago. The buyer is a branch charity under the name of the Sunshine Foundation - we have sent someone to contact them, hoping to find this book, although it is not yet certain what use this book can be used for..."

The message sent by Baili Qing was quite long, and it took Yu Sheng a long time to read it. Then he frowned unconsciously. When he thought that such a shoddy "storybook" was the most cherished treasure of the squirrel, he always felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but at this moment, Little Red Riding Hood, who was leaning over to look at the phone, suddenly said "Hey?", interrupting his random thoughts.

Yu Sheng turned his head: "What's wrong? "

"Sunshine Foundation... I always feel like I've heard of it recently," the girl frowned, trying to recall something, "Just these two days, it seems..."

She suddenly fixed her eyes.

The high school student's mind flashed a bright light.

"Snow White! !" Little Red Riding Hood raised her head and shouted at the camp, her tone slightly urgent, "Snow White! Where are you? !"

The next second, Snow White's head popped out of a nearby hut: "What's the matter?"

"Didn't a batch of donated books go to the orphanage a while ago - sent through the Sunshine Foundation? !"

Snow White was stunned for a moment, and nodded as she came out of the room: "Yes, there is such a thing, a bunch of books sent by the Sunshine Foundation - moving them to the reading room almost exhausted me. What?"

Then she saw Yu Sheng standing next to her, and happily raised her hand to greet him: "Brother, have you eaten? "Then she saw the serious and solemn expressions on Yu Sheng and Little Red Riding Hood's faces. Snow White's expression suddenly became tense: "...There is a problem with that batch of books?" Little Red Riding Hood stared into each other's eyes: "Have you really checked carefully? There is nothing wrong with those books?" "I have checked, I have checked every book, and I have shown you the list of books..." Little Red Riding Hood frowned, she recalled carefully, and remembered that she had indeed seen the list of donated books after that, and the name of that book was indeed not in it. But a thing that can be so coincidental is still enough to make people suspicious. "Where are those books now?" Yu Sheng said seriously, "I have to go over to check. "

"It's in the cabinet in the northwest corner of the reading room, the reading room at the end of the second floor - I haven't had time to put it on the bookshelf yet, it's piled there as it was," Snow White said hurriedly, and couldn't help asking, "So what is it..."

"Eighty-six years ago, 'Zhao Lele' gave a fairy tale book to 'Ankaela' who had just come into this world, and according to recent transaction records in the collection market, an old book of the same batch and edition as the fairy tale book was 'coincidentally' bought by a unit under the name of the Sunshine Foundation a month ago - and a few days ago, the Sunshine Foundation donated a batch of books to the orphanage, and all the abnormal situations started after that day."

Little Red Riding Hood said, her expression was extremely solemn.

"There are coincidences in this world - but do you believe it is so 'coincidental'? "

Yu Sheng had already stretched out his hand to the air at this time: "No matter what happens, I'll go over and take a look..."

Just when he was halfway through his words, a sharp and piercing "noise" suddenly entered his mind, interrupting his movements.

It was the cry of a baby, and a piercing alarm, layers of buzzing - it was like a temporary drowning of the whole world, surging in his consciousness with a roar.

Yu Sheng took a breath of cold air and looked up in the direction of the camp.

The children were running around between the huts, and the half-grown children and "parents" didn't seem to notice anything unusual.

Hu Li, who was standing next to him, was startled by Yu Sheng's movements and expression: "Benefactor, what's wrong with you?"

"Ankaela's 'noise' is very clear and very close," Yu Sheng said quickly, and at the same time he could continue to hear the voice in his mind in waves, "I feel it is trying to chisel open the real world... No... It's about to chisel open! Let the children go back to the room! Quick!"

He seemed to feel something, raised his head and said hurriedly, and then looked at Little Red Riding Hood: "You go back too! Everyone inject rational blockers - let the Secret Service and the Council staff take over the camp, immediately!"

Although Little Red Riding Hood couldn't hear the "noise", she instantly knew the situation was urgent from Yu Sheng's reaction, and turned to run to the camp without any doubt. Snow White's movements were only half a beat slower than Little Red Riding Hood, and the two figures ran into the resettlement area one after the other.

Then, the entire camp reacted almost in the blink of an eye, as if an invisible alarm had been sounded. The children who were still playing a second ago quickly completed the integration and ran to their respective houses under the command of the half-grown children and "parents". The caregivers sent by the council took a sufficient amount of rational blockers in the shortest time and distributed them to each house. The "parents" who were close to adulthood injected themselves first, and then helped the younger children complete the injection process according to the degree of erosion of each younger brother and sister - everything was carried out with amazing efficiency as if it had been rehearsed countless times.

Yu Sheng, Hu Li, and Irene also quickly came to the camp.

The dark silk thread slid through the air.

Irene sat on Yu Sheng's shoulder, raised her hand and moved the air lightly and quickly. The spider-like thin thread floated and spread, like a strange and living hair weaving into a huge net, gradually expanding above the camp, and constantly dropping thin threads in the process of expansion.

"There is no pollution for the time being, but there are indeed children who are "falling asleep" uncontrollably, and some have already started dreaming," the little puppet said hurriedly, "Yu Sheng, can you feel that 'Ankaela'? Is it invading the valley? Has it come in?"

No mistakes, one song, one post, one content, one look!

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'm looking for it in the opposite direction." Yu Sheng waved his hands quickly, trying to concentrate and track the continuous noise in his mind. The power of blood connected his perception with the entire valley, and also with every child in the valley. He sensed the situation in the camp and any possible traces of "angel invasion" in the valley. However, after several "scans", he still did not find the breath of Ankaela.

He was not unfamiliar with that breath. He had faced that huge shadow in the Black Forest.

But it did not come here.

The noise was getting sharper, and Ankaela was waking up...

Yu Sheng raised his head and looked at the houses where the children were hiding.

Those houses fell into silence one by one.

The children are falling asleep one by one. At this moment, the real world is welcoming night. The power of "fairy tale" is rising rapidly in the night. The crying of the baby is getting clearer and clearer. Ankaela's awakening process is obviously advancing rapidly. It feels as if it has penetrated some kind of barrier, as if it has entered...

Container.

The word suddenly appeared in Yu Sheng's mind again.

The children are all protected by the "blood covenant", and the sheltering wasteland can at least protect their consciousness.

There is no sign of any angel invasion in the valley, and Ankaela does not seem to have discovered this place.

Little Red Riding Hood and Snow White, the two most severely eroded fairy tale members, have been stable until just now, and now Irene is still monitoring the minds of everyone here, and even this incredible doll has not found any signs of pollution.

Is it not a child here who was chosen as the container?

It can't be the "squirrel" who was trapped in the Black Forest and lost his real body long ago?

Could it be the nephew of Lao Zheng who only met a few times?

The phone rang urgently, and Yu Sheng subconsciously picked up the phone and saw Li Lin's name on the screen.

He answered the phone and heard the urgent voice of the young Secret Service agent in the receiver.

"...What does 'the orphanage stood up' mean?"
