Boom! Boom! Boom!
The gigantic, pitch-black beast rushed across the road and barged into the entrance of the orphanage. At this moment, everyone witnessed the building of the orphanage being engulfed in a sea of flames. A few black figures stood beside the building. Upon witnessing the terrifying chariot speeding toward them, the few black figures hurriedly tossed torches into the flames, turned around, and ran into the woods, disappearing from sight shortly after.
"Fei!"
Of course, Fangzheng wouldn't let them go. He turned the steering wheel abruptly and skidded to a stop. At the same time, the door opened and Fei, who was prepared, leaped up and chased after the black figures into the forest like a cheetah.
"Dean! Everyone! "
At that moment, Krose staggered out of the car and yelled at the sight of the small building engulfed in flames. She tried to run toward it, but her legs gave way and she fell to the ground. It seemed that even though Fangzheng's driving skills didn't affect her mental state, her body instinctively felt fear.
"Wait here. I'll go in and take a look."
Fangzheng patted Krose's shoulder, kicked open the burning door, and entered the building.
Scorching flames mixed with thick smoke surged towards Fangzheng, but to Fangzheng, this bit of fire was naturally not a problem. As he looked around, he shouted loudly.
"Is anyone there? Is anyone there? "
"Help! Save us! "
Shortly after, a voice sounded from a corner of the thick smoke. Fangzheng hurried over and saw a woman in pajamas curled up in the corner with a few children. She covered her mouth and nose, coughing incessantly.
"Are you okay? Can you move around? Is everyone here? "
Fangzheng counted the number of people and asked the old woman loudly. Upon hearing Fangzheng's question, the old woman turned to the children behind her and nodded.
"Everyone's here!"
"Good. Follow me. Bend down, cover your mouth and nose, and don't move! Follow closely! "
Under Fangzheng's beckoning, the woman held the children's hands and stood up. Then, she followed Fangzheng forward. Perhaps it was because the smoke was too thick, they couldn't get their bearings. And now, with Fangzheng as a humanoid detector who wasn't afraid of the smoke, they finally found their backbone. Shortly after, Fangzheng led them through the hall.
However, just as everyone was about to leave this place, suddenly, accompanied by a few loud crashing sounds, the burning beam suddenly collapsed, completely blocking the door.
"What's wrong? What happened? "
"The door! The door is blocked!"
Looking at how the door was blocked by the flaming beams, the few children by the woman's side shrieked. The woman's face turned pale.
"Alright, stop screaming. Don't worry, this is just a small problem. You just can't walk through the door …"
As he spoke, Fangzheng looked around. Following that, he came in front of a wall, clenched his fist, and swung it forward.
. Boom!
The next moment, the wooden wall instantly exploded, revealing a huge hole. As for Fangzheng, he extended his hand and held up the pillar that hadn't collapsed. He gestured to the dumbfounded crowd.
"What are you looking at? Get out of here! "
Upon hearing Fangzheng's reminder, the group came back to their senses and hurriedly ran out of the hole. After confirming that everyone had left safely, Fangzheng put down the pillar in his hand and was the last one to leave the fire.
"Teacher, everyone, are you all right?! Are you hurt?! "
When Fangzheng arrived at a safe zone, Krose stood up as well. When she saw everyone, she hurriedly rushed over and hugged the child in front of her as she carefully looked at them. At this moment, Krose's complexion was ashen and her lips were pale as though she was about to die.
"We're fine."
"It was that uncle who saved us!"
… Uncle?
Fangzheng paused and stared at the naughty child covered in soot.
Don't you have any eyesight? Don't you know how to call me big brother?
Is this how you repay your savior?
"By the way, Krose, why are you all here?"
At this moment, the woman also looked at Krose and asked curiously. Krose looked at her uneasily.
"I was in school and was about to go home when I suddenly saw a fire here, so we rushed over to check out the situation … Teacher, what exactly happened?"
"I don't know."
The woman shook her head.
"We were still sleeping when the fire suddenly broke out. I hurriedly found the children to escape downstairs, but because of the thick smoke, we couldn't get out at all. If it weren't for this mister's help …"
While saying, the woman looked at Fangzheng.
"Thank you, mister. If it weren't for you, we might have already …"
"Alright, now isn't the time to talk about this. You can thank me when you have time."
Fangzheng waved his hand and interrupted the woman's thanks. At the same time, he looked at the naughty child meaningfully.
I'll also give you a chance to reorganize your words.
"All in all, your bodies aren't in good condition now. I'll bring you to the nearby village to see a doctor for a checkup. As for the situation here …"
"Bang!!"
However, before Fangzheng could finish his sentence, a gunshot suddenly sounded from the distant forest. This immediately gave the children a fright. As for Fangzheng, he was taken aback as he looked in the direction of the sound.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The gunshots were very rapid. Even from afar, one could hear the sounds of multiple guns exchanging fire. Fangzheng could naturally tell that the gunshots were made by the gun he had given Fei. Did that mean that Fei had already found her target and was engaging in battle?
After a few moments, the gunshots stopped abruptly. In an instant, the surroundings were in complete silence. Even in the orphanage, one could only hear the crackling of flames. After a few moments, rustling sounds came from the nearby bushes. Shortly after, Fei stepped out of the bushes and returned to Fangzheng's side.
"Miss Fei, are you alright?"
At this moment, Krose ran over worriedly. Fei shook her head and turned to Fangzheng.
"You didn't catch them?"
"There was an ambush with heavy weapons."
"Alright, I got it."
Considering that there were still people around, Fangzheng didn't say much and nodded in response.
Shortly after, the nearby villagers rushed over to help put out the fire. Fangzheng drove the car and led the children and the others into the village.
Brats were brats, after all. In the beginning, they were rather fearful. But as soon as they sat in Fangzheng's technological-looking chariot, they were instantly captivated by the gorgeous technology before them. They exclaimed and looked around. The fear of almost dying in the sea of flames seemed to have disappeared entirely.
After arriving at the village, the doctor gave everyone a checkup. Fortunately, there weren't any major issues. Therefore, the villagers allowed the children from the orphanage to rest in the inn. As for what to do in the future … Well, that would have to wait until tomorrow morning.
The children had been tossing and turning for half the night and were exhausted. After climbing onto their warm beds, they closed their eyes and fell asleep quickly.
But even though they slept comfortably, it didn't mean that the others could do the same.
"Apologies, Mr. Fangzheng. I would like to stay here today."
After watching the children and the woman fall asleep, Krose stepped out of the room and said softly to Fangzheng.
"I'm fine with it. But what about you? Don't you need to inform Her Majesty? "
Unlike the others, Fangzheng was aware of Krose's identity. A country's princess not returning home at night? This wasn't a small problem.
"I will contact them through Kiku."
"Oh, right. I forgot that you still have that bird."
Hearing until here, Fangzheng nodded. Of course, he knew that this princess had a white falcon named 'Kiku'. It was very human-like. When Krose concealed her identity, she would contact the royal family through it.
"Then you should rest well. We'll talk about the rest tomorrow."
Fangzheng said and nodded to Krose. Then, he turned around and was about to leave. But at this moment, Krose hurried over.
"Please wait, Mr. Fangzheng."
"Hmm? Is there anything else? "
"This …"
As she spoke, Krose took out a handkerchief.
"Please allow me to be impolite."
Krose said, raising her hand and wiping Fangzheng's cheeks with a handkerchief. Hmm, speaking of which, Fangzheng's face was much darker from the smoke after that round of fire.
In this regard, Fangzheng didn't decline. After all, the princess was wiping his face. Where else could he find such treatment? Besides, she was the one who took the initiative.
I'm sorry, I don't know what to say at this moment.
I just need to smile.
Yes, you see, it's that simple.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Fangzheng. I was really scared back then …"
Recalling the situation, Krose still had lingering fears. She watched helplessly as the exit was blocked by flames. Back then, she collapsed to the ground and felt as though she had completely lost consciousness.
"But … Mr. Fangzheng, you're so strong. You actually broke through the wall?"
Krose couldn't help but chuckle. On the other hand, Fangzheng shrugged.
"It's okay. Mainly because the wall was burnt to a crisp, so it was easy to break through. After all, wooden walls are different from cement. "
"Is … Is that so?"
Krose nodded dubiously. Then, she stared at Fangzheng and blushed.
"But, Mr. Fangzheng, you're really awesome. You actually dared to barge into such a dangerous fire …"
"Actually, it wasn't that dangerous. Yes … It just looked dangerous. It wasn't a big deal."
"But if it weren't for you, Mr. Fangzheng, perhaps Teacher and the children would have been …"
"Ssss …"
At this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from between the two of them. They turned around and saw that Fey had silently stood not far away, holding a bottle of drink and biting the straw as she stared at them.
"Ah, s-sorry."
Krose, who was being stared at by Fey, immediately blushed and hurriedly retreated.
"T-That … I'll go check on the children. Goodnight, Mr. Fangzheng. Goodnight, Miss Fei."
Krose hurriedly turned around and ran back into the room. Fangzheng gazed helplessly at Fei, who stared at him innocently, and patted her head.
"You always know how to stir up trouble. Let's go."
After returning to the car, Fangzheng put away his smile and revealed a stern expression.
"Alright, tell me what's going on. To be able to escape from your pursuit, that person shouldn't be a hooligan, right? "
Even though Fei was always at the bottom of the class in terms of learning, she was second only to Ling in terms of battle strength. To be able to escape from her hands definitely wasn't something an ordinary hooligan could do.
"Military weapons."
Fei reported softly.
"It's the people we've seen before."
"You mean … the special forces from the intelligence department?"
"Yes."
"Heh … Is there something wrong with their heads?"
Upon hearing her words, Fangzheng couldn't figure out the situation at all.
Why would a special force from the military intelligence department set fire to an orphanage in the middle of the night instead of sleeping? What kind of people are they?
Of course, it wasn't like there weren't any orphanages like the Purple Garden House, which was an orphanage on the surface, but there were still hidden secrets in private. But Maria Orphanage was just an orphanage and didn't seem to be hiding any secrets. So why would the special forces of the intelligence department set it on fire?
Besides, this place wasn't under the jurisdiction of the Seven Luminaries Church and the entire orphanage was a small place. There were only five people in the orphanage, including the four adopted children. In this case, why would they set the place on fire personally? Couldn't they hire a hooligan or something? Or even set up an ambush? They even used military weapons?
What was the difference between this and sending 007 to catch adulterers?
Previously, when they stole Fangzheng's core components, Fangzheng felt that something was amiss. Now that he thought about it …
What kind of special forces are they? Are they all retarded?
