Muted - Chapter 58

The child woke up when changing to a third potion. She was groggy and burned, not knowing what happened, but moved subconsciously, trying to break free from Mu Ran’s arms.

Mu Ran noticed the movement in her arms, and tightened the arm around the child, and then gently held the child’s hand to prevent her from moving to the needle, lowered her head and said as softly as possible: “Don’t be afraid, just a moment. “

The child heard the sound and looked up from his arms to see him.

Mu Ran brushed her hair in front of her forehead, faced those big eyes with inquiry and eyes, smiled, and then patted her back gently, whispering: “Oh, don’t be afraid . “

The child still looked at him with his eyes open, and his dirty little face had no expression. After a few seconds, her slightly-stretched body relaxed slightly, and after a few more seconds, her head leaned slightly against Mu Ran’s chest, and another unstuck hand grabbed Mu Ran’s cuff. .

Seeing the child calm down and no more disturbance, Mu Ran relaxed a little, but in a moment, he lowered his head with a little worry and asked, “The hungry is not hungry.” The child did not speak, but looked straight at Mu Ran, Mu Ran. After patiently asking again, she finally nodded gently.

There is a night market not far from the clinic. Mu Ran talked to the child: “You are waiting for me here, shall I go out and buy food for you?” As soon as his voice fell, the child turned his head and buried himself. Into Mu Ran’s arms, the hand holding Mu Ran’s cuffs was clenched tightly, as if Mu Ran would run away in the next second.

Mu Ran was crying and laughing. Just then, Dr. Liu came down from his house. When he saw the scene, he asked a little strangely: “What’s wrong?” Mu Ran told his doctor after waking up the child. The doctor thought about it: “Otherwise, I’ll go and cook her noodles.”

Mu Ran quickly shook his head. “No need, no trouble.”

Dr. Liu smiled. “If there is any trouble, my house is upstairs. It ’s good for the child to eat something.” Dr. Liu’s home and clinic are in a building. There are stairs behind the clinic. , But it is also very convenient.

Mu Ran was still a little hesitant. Dr. Liu looked at the child buried in Mu Ran’s arms and held his cuffs tightly, jokingly said, “This child is smart, but he knows who is really good for her” and went upstairs.

In just ten minutes, Dr. Liu held the bowl of noodles down. Mu Ran was ashamed to bother the doctor again, coaxed the child to sit in a chair, and squatted in front of her to feed her bite by bite. It was just the child’s hand in the process. Always clinging to his clothes tightly, no matter how to persuade not to loosen.

It was eleven o’clock after all the work was done, and Mu Ran accompanied Dr. Liu to close the clinic door, discussed with the doctor, and decided to wait for the child downstairs. Dr. Liu’s husband was away from home on business trips. His daughter lived in her grandmother’s house when she was studying and did not return on weekdays. After all, he is a big man. It is absolutely impossible to go to the doctor’s house so late now.

Dr. Liu cried and laughed at Mu Ran’s “consciousness”, but he no longer persuaded him, so he was ready to take the child from Mu Ran and take her upstairs. I didn’t know the child was holding Mu Ran’s neck tightly, and he couldn’t let go. Mu Ran hugged her for a long time, regardless of whether she could understand or not, and constantly explained to her that the doctor took her to take a bath to check her health for her good, so that she would not regenerate her illness. After a long time, the child finally became loose. Dr. Liu took the opportunity to pick her up, greeted Mu Ran, and took the child upstairs.

It was cold outside, and the cold wind infiltrated into the clothes like a razor blade. Mu Ran rubbed his hands a little and couldn’t bear it. He stepped back and stood in the corridor. I don’t know how long, Mu Ran heard the sound of a lock popping upstairs. He raised his head and could see the light shining through the door. Mu Ran went out of the corridor, but his steps didn’t stop. A small figure rushed down, and flung on him in a blink, holding his legs tightly.

Mu Ran froze, then smiled and bent over and carried the child into his arms.

Dr. Liu followed behind and went downstairs, and said to Mu Ran: “It’s fine, there are no other wounds.” He paused, his voice was slightly heavy, “but she had many scars on her body, and probably had been abused before.”

Mu Ran’s smile lingered on her face, and for a while she didn’t know what to say. Dr. Liu sighed, and then changed the subject with a smile: “I found a few old daughter’s clothes at home. She may be a bit big. Let’s do it first. Take her over tomorrow to see. Children always have a fever Repeatedly. “

Mu Ran responded well, then bowed with the child in a solemn tone: “Dr. Liu, thank you very much.”

Dr. Liu waved his hand. “Okay, just go back and rest early.”

Mu Ran nodded and thanked the doctor again before holding the child back.

On the way, the child was blown slightly, and Mu Ran took off his jacket to cover the child. He lowered his head and asked softly: “Is it cold” When the child shook his head, Mu Ran was slightly relieved to speed up his steps. Tomorrow I will take time to take the child to buy a few clothes, but also take the child to the police station to ask for registration. I do n’t know if the child was lost or abducted by a trafficker … He thought about it, but he did n’t find the child leaning his head on his back. Tears kept rolling on his shoulders.

Mu Ran took the child to the restaurant the next day. He was not assured that the child was staying at home alone, and the restaurant was not good for taking leave. He simply took her with him. He only told Wang Qin that this was a relative ’s child, and he took care of him for the time being, and he promised Wang Qin that the child would not be added trouble. Wang Qin was unhappy, but said nothing.

Busy at noon, Wang Qin suspected that the child was occupying a place and would not let the child stay in the living room. Mu Ran had to find a small stool and let the child sit by the cabinet and wait for him. The child didn’t cry or make trouble, Mu Ran said what it was, sitting obediently by the cabinet and waiting, obedient.

After noon, it was almost noon until 1pm. Mu Ran went to ask for leave with Wang Qin. At first Wang Qin was worried that Mu Ran and the children would dine here. Listening to Mu Ran’s taking the child out naturally promised.

Mu Ran walked to the child and squatted, touching her forehead, and asked with some guilt: “Hungry or not?”

The child still did not speak, and shook his head, looking at Mu Ran with wide eyes.

There are no more dirty dirt on her face, she can see her round nose and her tightly closed mouth, and she is a very beautiful girl. But presumably because of illness, his face was pale, his blood was not at all, and his complexion and spirit did not look good.

Mu Ran felt more guilty, and no longer asked, reaching out to lift her out of the restaurant.

Mu Ran took the child to eat some porridge and steamed dumplings, and in time to find a children’s clothing store, bought the child’s fitted underwear, and then took her to the police station.

Such a clean and bright child, the police in the police station did not believe that it was a street child. Later, after listening to Mu Ran saying that he had found the child, a policeman patted his head to a colleague next to him and said: “诶Alas, did n’t I just caught a few people who were specifically manipulating street children to beg and cheat for money! Otherwise, I asked, “The other people responded, and they kept screaming that the idea was good, so I brought Mu. Ran with the children.

The policeman brought out a man with a sharp-mouthed handcuffed hands, and the child was always being held by Mu Ran. When he saw the man, he grabbed Mu Ran’s robe and hid. Mu Ran quickly picked her up and patted her back for comfort. A few police officers knew the child’s reaction at the first sight, and let the men tell the child’s origin somewhat viciously.

The man didn’t have time to look at the child’s appearance, so he could see the back of his head. Mu Ran coaxed the child to turn his head. The man only glanced and told the police to know the child.

The children belonged to the same village. His father used drugs and alcohol and gambled. Later, he had a dispute with someone and was strangled to death by the roadside. His mother ran away a few years ago, leaving only one unconnected uncle. She was not at all interested in her, and her aunt was even worse for her. If she was in a good mood, she would give her a meal. If she was in a bad mood, she would be taken out of the house. This person saw that the child was unmanaged, and gave the child’s aunt a little money to take the child away. Of course, her aunt was a hundred willing and sold the child like that.

This man was not kind, he and his companions specifically sought out unattended street children, and organized these children to beg for money on the street. In order to arouse the sympathy of passers-by, they even intentionally wound and **** the child. If the child is not too young, they are afraid of accidentally killing the child. How could this child live so completely and completely? Later, another older child who was looking after the child had an accident. The child was smart and took the opportunity to run away and hid around the school. They never found her.

After the matter was explained, the child was asked for the address of his mother’s mother’s house, and the police then pressed people back. Mu Ran stood a little helplessly holding the child, and a policeman sighed: “In this case, she will not have a good life even if she is sent back.” Mu Ran was worried about this too, and the child was sent back again. I don’t know what kind of abuse will be suffered.

The policeman looked up at Mu Ran and thought for a moment: “Otherwise, I’ll call you, and you will send the child to the homeless shelter in the city.
