First-Class Lawyer - Chapter 142

[Chapter 140 Scavenger (3)]
In fact, in those years, Yan Suizhi had very little contact with the orphanages of major welfare institutions. He only learned about the situation when he first donated, and since then, the transfer has been anonymous, and it is not even clear from the book that those donations came from the same personal.
Seriously, this is at most a “one-sided relationship” and cannot be defined as a friend.
So Yan Suizhi was actually surprised when he heard the name “old friend”.
“I take the liberty to ask, which old friend are you talking about?” The
dean put on the goggles again, and his eyes fell on Yan Suizhi again, “A very interesting gentleman who has quietly provided financial support many times in exchange of accounts. ”
Secretly provided for another account? Then how do you know it’s him?” Joe was curious.
The young master had absolutely no idea of the relationship between Yan Suizhi and the orphanage, thinking that the old dean was talking about some kind stranger.
The old dean gave a short laugh, which made him look like a sincere elder, “I can see it. It may not be seen in other places, but it is obvious here. Because he is the only one in my orphanage. If I donate such a large amount, I knew it was him when I saw the accounts.” The
old dean nodded his head, “An old man’s intuition.”
Yan Suizhi suddenly felt that the word “old friend” came from this man. What the old man said in his mouth is indeed very appropriate.
Even if they’ve only seen one side of each other.
“Actually, it is because of him that the orphanage can reopen.” The old director sighed, his tone a little low, “Because I received a letter from the estate committee last month.”
“The estate committee?” After reacting, he glanced at Yan Suizhi, and then at Gu Yan, “It won’t be…” The
old dean cast a questioning look at him.
“…Our dean?” Qiao added the second half of the sentence.
“Your dean?” The old dean was stunned for a moment.
“He used the abbreviation Y once. I don’t know if the old friend you are talking about is him.” Gu Yan said.
“Mr. Y…” The old dean repeated it to himself, looking at everyone with different eyes, “Are you Mr. Yan’s students?”
Obviously, although there was only one relationship, the old gentleman always remembered that young man The appearance of a person, maybe I saw him in a certain report, knew who he was, knew that he was a lawyer, and became the youngest dean of Metz University.
“Can you know the abbreviation of Y… You are not ordinary students, right? You should have a very close relationship with Mr. Yan?” said the old dean.
“Well. Very… close.” Gu Yan said: “I’m sorry, I didn’t say much in the newsletter before.” The
old dean waved his hand, “I can understand, I can understand. So what is your purpose today?”
“Actually it is I want to ask you about someone, it’s related to some cases.” Gu Yan simply went straight to the topic.
Thanks to Yan Suizhi’s “old friend”, the old dean’s attitude has changed subtly compared to the previous one.
He was kind and polite before, but whether it was the simple conversation in the communication or the first two small chats, I could feel that he had reserved his words. That is the attitude towards strangers, warm but distant.
But this time it was different. He stopped laughing and became serious.
The old dean pursed his lips, wondering what he was thinking about. After a while, he raised his eyes and asked, “Who are you asking?”
They released the photos on the Yuncao Welfare Institute’s website.
It was a group photo taken many years ago. There were quite a few children in the photo, standing in three rows. The youngest were even held in their hands. The oldest was sixteen or seventeen years old, and was about to become an adult.
The dean himself was among them, along with some welfare home administrators and nurses.
Most of the people were smiling, and occasionally a few were squinted by the sun and couldn’t care less.
Yan Suizhi pointed to a boy in the back row and asked, “Who is he?”
The boy in the photo was wearing a simple T-shirt and trousers, with short hair on his head and his hands behind his back. It can be seen from his grinning lips that he is smiling, but there is still a gloomy feeling between his brows and eyes.
At this time, his earlobes were still clean, without the spade tattoo.
“Is this child?” the old dean said slowly, “I remember his name was Donne at that time, he was 17 years old. This photo is a few years old, nearly 30 years ago. At that time, the welfare home was just approved for two years. At the beginning of the scale. In the photo is the first group of big families.”
“I am very impressed with this child.” The old dean said, “Most of the children in the photo are from the wine city, but the latter few No.”
He ran his fingers over the boy named Donne, and nodded to the two people around him, “They were sent from somewhere else, for various reasons. You know, Not every child can adapt to the atmosphere of an orphanage or a welfare home, so there will be occasional transfers. The staff calls it moving, but I think those children should not call it that, maybe they feel like they are homeless The
old dean said, “I chatted with him, and he actually talks a lot. When he talks about some things, he will show off a little bit. Of course, that’s normal. They don’t get much, so occasionally There are some good ones, and you can’t help but let other people know about them. But this kid is a little too concerned about this kind of thing…how to say, it is obvious that he is not very happy to see other people get better things, no matter what Is it due to luck or something? When he sees other people’s bad luck, he will occasionally show jokes or even gloat. This makes his popularity not very ideal, and he is always alone. At that time, I felt that the child’s psychological state was a bit biased and worried. He would go the wrong way, so I would talk to him from time to time.”
He recalled for a moment, his expression a little lost, “But unfortunately, I met him too late. He will be 18 years old after staying here for a year, and according to league rules, he does not need to be warded. I remember He spent his 18th birthday here. The carer prepared him cakes and gifts that day. He seemed to be in a good mood, and then he submitted an application and left here the next day.”
“Then where did he go, do you know? ?” Yan Suizhi asked.
“I know some.” The old dean said, “Although according to the regulations, these children will not be under our supervision when they become adults, but we will still keep in touch. After all, this is their home. If they have a bad life, we will Help them as much as possible. But there are some children who don’t want to talk about this place after they go out. They are separated from before the age of 18. After he left, he cut off contact with this place. I can only get through some connections. I know some of his movements. He stayed in the wine city for a while, and then went to Chaoxing, he is a member of Chaoxing himself.”
Hearing this, Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan looked at each other.
The information gradually overlapped, and they should have found the wrong person.
“Then do you have the latest news about him?” The
old dean shook his head, “The last time I heard about him was twenty-five or six years ago, when a nurse in the hospital was flying to Decama. When I saw him on the shuttle, the kid said that he had a good life. He went on a business trip to Decama to help people with some errands. But he didn’t mention the specific unit and what he did. After that, I haven’t listened to it until now. I ‘ve had any news,” the
old dean hesitated for a moment, and then added: “This is actually a bit strange. I have been in the government for many years and have some contacts. To tell you the truth, because I was worried about that child, I asked the file system to Friends helped, but no trace of him was found, as if he disappeared from the world after only a few years of life after leaving the orphanage.”
“Disappeared?”
Young Master Qiao is the most sensitive to this kind of thing.
Almost as soon as he heard something like this, he would subconsciously think, “Don’t do genetic modification?”
The old dean was stunned for a moment, his expression a little dazed, and then he turned to a deeper regret, because he knew very well in his heart that if a person needs to rely on genetic modification to hide his tracks, it will not be a good thing.
Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan found more than ten photos, which spanned far more than three or five years. In addition, after Joe and Eunice got the news, they searched their database with “shepherd bird” and got some fragmentary information.
Putting these two together, it is almost certain that the scavenger has been active for at least twenty years, and may even still exist today.
And the reason why he is still well hidden for so many years, perhaps as Joe guessed, is due to genetic modification-
every time some people are cleared, he will change his skin to be on the safe side.
It is very difficult to find such people.
The more information there is, the bigger the hope.
Yan Suizhi asked: “Do you still have any information about this Donne?”
“When you accepted him to the orphanage, there was a file of his past.” The old director said, “But they were all 17 years old. It’s before the age of 2.”
“Is it convenient for us to take a look?” The
old dean said, “I can only show you part of it within the specified range.”
“Thank you.” The
archives room is in this office building. In a room on the west side of the floor. The room is not big, and there are several optical brains working in it, emitting a slight fluorescence.
“The staff hasn’t arrived yet, and I’m still in charge with a few teachers here,” the old dean said.
“Teacher?”
“Oh yes, the ones you met when you entered the office just now.” The old dean smiled again when he said this, “A few friends, are willing to help me. We plan to stay in the orphanage. It’s always good to have classes and weekend academies that teach those kids a little more before they reach adulthood.”
The old dean operated the light brain slowly.
Yan Suizhi and the others politely waited aside without urging them.
After a while, the optical brain hummed and spit out some fake paper pages, which contained some photos, archives and transfer letters.
The old dean thoughtfully prepared four copies and distributed them to them.
It’s just that when it reached Ke Jin, Ke Jin still stood by the window with his back to them, as if he didn’t notice it.
“Uh…” The old dean was a little uncertain about Ke Jin’s state, and the materials in his hand were neither delivered nor received.
Qiao’s idea of just emerging was interrupted, and he nodded to the old dean: “Thank you, if he wants to see it, I can share it with me.”
The first page of the document is a transfer letter, showing that Donne was 10 years old. Before, he had been living in an orphanage in Nest Star. Attached to the transfer letter was a file from the orphanage, which contained a column for his experience in the orphanage, his performance, and some preferences.
It is mentioned in particular that Donne likes birds very much and has an excessive dependence on birds. He has domesticated a shepherd bird almost without a teacher and takes it with him wherever he goes. At the age of 10, the shepherd bird he domesticated was injured and died, which caused him to fight with several children.
This is the main reason why he was transferred.
Immediately following these two documents is a letter of acceptance.
The receiving unit is an orphanage in Decama. The discipline here is more scientific and much better than Nest Star. Donne stayed in this Decama orphanage until he was 17 years old, and encountered some unpleasantness, and was transferred to Yuncao Welfare Home in Wine City.
But that’s not the point. Yan Suizhi’s eyes fell on the name of the orphanage in Decama, and he frowned deeply: “Milan Orphanage…”
He suddenly raised his head and met Gu. Yan and Joe’s eyes.
The Milan Orphanage is where Ke Jin once stayed.
This made it hard for them not to think of Lee Connor, who was at large, the culprit who caused Ke Jin’s mental problems.
He was also carrying his life, and also escaped the search by genetic modification.
Qiao turned his head to look at Ke Jin, but the other party was still unaware, his eyes fixed on a certain height.
They followed Ke Jin’s gaze and saw a lush tall tree in the backyard. On the branches of the tall tree, there were a few resting birds.
It is the most common grey-spotted finch, and looks identical to the shepherd, except for the indistinguishable tail feathers.
