Mo Chen calmly analyzed that if someone or something terrible captures the professor, then Professor Wen will at least have a chance to make a short voice, even if it is not a call for help.

Mo Chen picked up the torch on the ground. It was the one held by Professor Wen before. The torch was placed flat on the stairs in front of the iron gate. The flames were still not extinguished, and occasionally made two crisp crackling sounds.

The torch is flat...

Mo Chen suddenly thought that this torch should have been placed there by Professor Wen himself.

Otherwise, no matter how unexpected the situation Professor Wen encountered, in desperation, the torch fell to the ground, either rolled down a few steps of the stairs or fell to the side, in short, it would not be so flat.

Mo Chen continued to think that it would be possible for Professor Wen to put the torch aside, which would at least two things.

First, even if there is no fire, Professor Wen can still see a place or something clearly.

Second, what Professor Wen has to do must use his hands. This range is relatively large, which may be to move things or climb somewhere.

Thinking of this, Mo Chen stuck his and the professor's two torches on the fence of the iron gate, freeing up his hands.

The two torches immediately looked like two bright lamps, illuminating the inside and outside of the iron door, and the flames flashed.

Mo Chen's eyes accidentally swept across the boiler inside the iron gate and saw a figure and moved slightly.

"Who?" Mo Chen shouted immediately. He was sure that there must be someone behind the boiler, because at that moment, the fire just now cast the long shadow of the man on the opposite wall.

The man did not answer, but because of Mo Chen's harsh shout, he shrank his body back, and his shadow disappeared.

The so-called unknown is the most terrifying. Mo Chen was so cautious that he pulled out the pliers he had just found from downstairs.

With the pliers opening the mouth and holding the U-shaped part of the lock, Mo Chen shouted to it, "Who is there? Come out quickly! Don't worry, I have no malice."

Mo Chen promised the person who was hiding inside like this, but his heart was filled with a stimulus. Those who would deliberately hide themselves may not be because of fear or fear. There is also a kind of person who would hide in the dark, that is... a malignant person.

Mo Chen expressed his friendship to the other party, and wanted to see which kind of person was hiding there.

After waiting for a while, the people inside still did not answer, let alone show up.

Mo Chen didn't want to continue wasting his time, so he said to the people inside, "Okay! Since you don't want to come out, then I'll go and find you."

As he said that, Mo Chen pinched the two tails of the pliers hard, and then used a sharp sound, and the lock head broke with a sound.

Mo Chen threw the lock on the ground, but the pliers were still in his hand, treating them as a weapon for self-defense in front of him.

With a creaking sound, the iron gate was opened by Mo Chen, and he shouted inside again, asking the other party to come out.

This time, before Mo Chen finished speaking, he heard a rippling sound coming from the inside of the boiler.

It seems that the man seemed to be hesitating this time whether he should come out.

Just as Mo Chen's patience was finally exhausted, two rustling footsteps and a weak figure slowly moved out from behind the boiler.

Mo Chen couldn't help but be stunned. He had imagined several ways in his mind, the other party's appearance and his "how to play".

But I never thought that the person who hid was actually a child.

The boy is not very old, only eight or nine years old, and has a ball head, which makes him look very naughty.

The appearance of this child made Mo Chen feel soft. The city has become like this miserable now. In terms of survival ability, the child is even more difficult.

Mo Chen bent down, waved to the boy, and said softly, "Come on, come here."

The boy stared at his eyes timidly, pinching the corners of his clothes with his little hands, rubbing them back and forth uneasy, but stood there and was still moving.

Mo Chen felt a little reluctant. He approached the boy carefully, for fear that the boy would be scared by the movement too much.

Fortunately, the boy did not move, just stared at him blankly. Mo Chen squatted in front of the boy, stretched out his hand tentatively, and wrapped it around the boy's waist, but the boy did not refuse.

"Are you here alone?" Mo Chen asked.

The boy said weakly, "Mom."

"What about your mother?" Mo Chen asked, looking around, and regretting asking this question in his heart.

A child will appear in the hospital, of course, with his family. The child looks very healthy. Generally speaking, when an adult goes to the hospital for treatment, he rarely takes the child with him. On the one hand, he has no time to take care of him. On the other hand, the hospital is not clean after all, and the child will not be taken away if he can.

Thinking about it this way, Mo Chen guessed that the child's mother was likely working in this hospital.

Just like when many of us were young, we would occasionally be taken to our workplace by our parents because we were not taken care of.

If the child's mother is working here as Mo Chen thought, then his mother is likely to have encountered misfortune now.

The boy shook his head, not knowing where his mother went, Mo Chen sighed and asked again, "Why are you hiding here? Are you playing hide-and-seek?"

Fear suddenly floated into the boy's eyes, he closed his mouth tightly and stopped talking.

What was the boy afraid of? Mo Chen suddenly thought, maybe, this child unfortunately witnessed the sudden lesions of the blood demon infected person.

Mo Chen gently stroked the boy's forehead and said softly, "Then would you like to stay with your uncle for a while? Uncle can help you find your mother."

The boy blinked his big eyes and looked at Mo Chen up and down, as if he was hesitating whether to go with this stranger.

After a long time, the boy nodded, and Mo Chen took his little hand and walked out of the iron gate.

After walking two parts, just as I was about to go down the stairs, the boy suddenly stared at the wall of the stairs and stopped.

Mo Chen asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

The boy swung around Mo Chen's other side, as if afraid of the wall. He pointed at the wall weakly and said, "That wall will eat people."

Cannibalism? Mo Chen's heart skipped a beat. For some reason, the boy's words suddenly made him feel that this wall was related to Professor Wen's disappearance.

"Baby, have you seen something?" Mo Chen asked softly, but he was very anxious, hoping that the boy could say it quickly and what he knew.

The boy said timidly, "A grandpa was swallowed by it." After that, the boy buried his face on Mo Chen's waist, and even looked at the wall, he would be frightened to death.

Grandpa? That must be talking about Professor Wen. Swallowing it in? Mo Chen thought, could it be that Professor Wen just discovered the mechanism on the wall? So he accidentally fell or fell into the wall?

Mo Chen gently touched the boy's head and said to the man softly, "Be good! Don't be afraid, there is uncle here. Just stand behind the uncle and wait for a while, and I'll be fine right away. OK?"
