Qinan and the others followed her forward and soon discovered something unusual about the children in the cage.
They looked even thinner than the previous babies, and they were huddled listlessly in the cage.
Some seemed to be seriously ill and couldn't open their eyes.
"You mean to let us choose them. Are they sick? They look uncomfortable."
"Why don't you open the cage first and let us see what they look like?"
"Oh, didn't you tell me to let this girl choose for us? We don't have to worry about so much now. When we choose the child, we can just be nice to him in peace and quiet."
Qi Nan and Zhong Cheng sing and harmonize.
The mute girl glanced at the progress of the candle burning and knew that time was running out.
It was soon time for the master to come back for inspection, and she had to quickly help these two choose a child.
She took out the key and opened the cage, then bent down and took out a child with eyes closed and a pale face from the cage.
This child was born very well, with black eyebrows and big eyes, but he looked thinner than the other children around him.
The child noticed someone touching him and was so frightened that he quickly opened his eyes.
He wanted to struggle and jump off the mute girl's body, but his weak body could not produce any extra strength.
"Yiyi...eh..."
The mute woman used the few sounds she could make to comfort the child with babbling sounds.
After the child reacted, he stopped resisting and allowed the mute woman to carry him out of the cage.
"Is this the child you have chosen for us?" Qinan approached the mute girl and the child happily.
She could also clearly see how the children in this cage were different from the children in other cages.
The children in this cage should be "weak" children waiting to be eliminated.
Because they are born thin and look sickly, under normal circumstances, ordinary people will rush to choose good and healthy children.
Gradually, these children were left behind.
In order to facilitate classification, they were put into a cage in the corner.
If they cannot be selected this time, they will be sent to the most filthy place to meet their final fate.
The mute girl nodded, then stretched out her hand, wanting to hand the child into Qinan's hands.
The child began to struggle violently again.
"No, sister, I don't want to go. I want to stay here and wait for my real mother to pick me up."
The mute woman touched the boy's head again, spoke to him in sign language, and told him that only by following these people would he have a chance of living.
From now on, these people will be his real mothers.
"No, I don't want it. They are not my parents. Sister, please take me away. You are the only good person."
The child begged the mute girl.
But the mute girl was already in trouble, so how could she raise a child?
Let him follow this group of people, at least he will have food and drink, and no longer have to live a hard life.
After Qin Nan took the child from her hand, he thanked the mute girl.
"It's him, we've chosen him."
The mute girl bowed gratefully to them, then closed the cage and led them out.
Seeing that the struggle was useless, the child in Qin Nan's arms gradually stopped moving.
He huddled in her arms, smelling the scent of soap on her clothes, and suddenly felt that maybe they were not bad people.
Following them out is also a good idea.
At least he doesn't have to be trapped in this dark place. After getting out, he will have a chance to find his parents.
He will come back, and he will definitely come back to save all the friends in this place.
The man came in seemingly stuck.
Just as the candle was burning, he took a new candle and lit it.
"Have you chosen some of them? Why is it this child?"
The man was a little strange. After all, he was very impressed by the child Qinan was holding.
At first, he attracted the attention of many people with his good looks.
But every time he would make a fuss, and he was the most ill-tempered and disobedient of the group of children.
He bites whenever anyone touches him.
Over time, he was locked in a cage in the corner.
Now that he is seriously ill, the man originally thought that during the next cleaning, he and the children who could not be sold would be disposed of at a low price, but he did not expect that he would be chosen by this wealthy businessman and his wife.
This surprised him.
"What's wrong with this child? He looks cute and well-behaved, has a nice voice, and looks young. We are raising him just right."
Qinan liked this child very much, and even expressed his attitude that he was the only one.
"But madam, there is one thing I still want to explain to you.
This child has a naughty temperament, and it may take a long time to raise him before he is properly raised. Moreover, he is seriously ill now. I certainly hope that you can consider all the consequences before deciding whether to continue to adopt him. "
The man explained all this, of course, not because he had an uneasy conscience and was afraid that Qinan and the others would suffer.
They are just worried that after the child's illness breaks out, these people will regret their choices and eventually come to make trouble with them again.
"Don't worry, we have roughly figured out these things just now.
I just like children with this kind of unique temperament. They will definitely be successful when they grow up.
What else do we need to do next? It's getting late, and we still want to take the child back early to be recognized by the family! "
Seeing Qi Nan acting like he was the one who couldn't wait any longer, the man couldn't say anything else.
After all, this is the customer's own choice. Besides, they can still make a profit by selling this problem child at a high price.
"Okay, now that you kids have made your choice, let's go out and talk."
The man stretched out his hand, and the mute woman respectfully handed him the key.
He walked around in front of each cage to make sure there were no omissions before leading Qinan and the others out of the secret room.
Back outside, it's a dark world again.
After the man came out with a candle, everyone could see the light again.
When he opened his eyes again, the secret room had disappeared.
If it weren't for the warm child in his arms, Qinan and the others would have doubted whether this was an hallucination they had experienced.
Who would have thought that in this seemingly remote village, every household has hidden secrets.
The investigation on their side has come to an end for the time being, and they don't know what happened to Wang Tiedan and Qin Qing.
"Hold me! You should rest for a while first."
Zhong Cheng took the child from Qi Nan, and the man also brought the abacus and deed, waiting to complete the final matters with Qi Nan and the others.
"If you have no other questions, just sign this first."
