“When I returned to the kindergarten to work, I discovered that all the previous teachers had been fired. After searching for a long time, I finally found one of the previous teachers. I called to ask the reason, and it turned out that it was because in the past two years, five or six children had gone missing in our kindergarten.”
Lauren was a little shocked. It would definitely have a great impact for such an incident to happen in the kindergarten.
“Did they go missing in the kindergarten?”
Yulia said, “Each situation is different. I’m not too sure about the specifics. Some of the teachers didn’t leave any contact information either. But according to the teachers I know, they all resigned because they took the blame. The teachers back then had all been changed.”
Lauren’s intuition told her that such a situation was definitely not a coincidence.
“Auntie Yulia, is it convenient for us to visit your kindergarten?”
“It shouldn’t be a problem. The principal of the kindergarten is a friend of mine. She is troubled by these incidents in the past two years.”
Thus, Lauren and Yulia agreed on a time to visit the next morning.
Since there were no clues at the amusement park for the past few days, she could only change her target.
Early the next morning, Lauren prepared to go to the kindergarten where Yulia worked.
Just as she was about to leave, she saw the manager standing at the door with a tray of dumplings in his hands.
“Miss Torres, you’re going out so early? I have prepared breakfast for you.”
“Huh? But didn’t I call yesterday and tell you not to send breakfast this morning?” The fragrance of the dumplings made Lauren swallow her saliva.
The manager smiled and said, “Mr. Franklin Torres specially instructed us to send these dumplings. He said that you like them and told us to send them to you every day.”
Following that, the manager even bent down and whispered into Lauren’s ear, “We have made a fortune from Mr. Torres with these dumplings.”
Lauren had seen the profit statement of Dream Villa last year. Torres Corporation had contributed a lot.
“It doesn’t matter. They have a lot of money anyway, so let them spend more!” Lauren asked the manager to pack the dumplings, so that she could eat them in the car.
“Miss Torres, Master Franklin is concerned about you. He even arranged breakfast for you.”
After biting on a dumpling, juice overflowed from it, and the fragrance of the meat instantly filled the entire car.
“It’s so delicious!”
The two of them finished eating a few baskets of dumplings, while chatting along the way. Half an hour later, they arrived at the kindergarten where Yulia worked.
Yulia was completely different from ten days ago. She had a new hairstyle, she had cut off all her long hair.
Her short hair made her look more energetic and refreshed.
“In order to reduce the hassle to maintain it, I just cut it off.” Yulia did not feel that it was a pity when she mentioned her long hair. On the contrary, when Lauren heard the word “cut”, her heart ached as she touched her hair.
She did not want to cut her hair. She had kept her long hair for a very long time.
Yulia was wearing comfortable clothes and light makeup. She looked ten years younger.
Lauren realized then that Yulia was actually a woman in her thirties. If it were not for that incident two years ago, she would definitely be very happy now.
Yulia brought the two of them to the principal’s office. They had to pass by many classes along the way. Lauren realized that although today was a school day, there were not many children in the class.
Before they came, Ben had mentioned that this kindergarten was very famous. Due to its good teachers and strong teaching atmosphere, many parents had to rely on their connections to squeeze their children in.
But why were there so few children?
The principal of the kindergarten was Miss Pulver. Lauren glanced at the name tag on the table. It said, ‘Irene Pulver’.
“You must be Lauren that Yulia mentioned, right?”
As soon as the few of them entered the room, Irene enthusiastically went to the door to welcome them. She held Lauren’s hand and quickly let it go.
At that moment, the alarm bell in Lauren’s heart suddenly rang. She had just sensed some negative aura and it flashed past her.
[System Divine Nine: Host, what’s wrong? I felt your spiritual consciousness move a little.]
Lauren shook her head. “I don’t know. I suddenly felt that something was wrong just now. Maybe some ghosts were passing by.”
This kind of situation would happen occasionally. Lauren could feel the grievance from some ghosts.
However, there were so many wandering ghosts in this world. Lauren definitely could not care about all of them, so sometimes she just let them be. As long as they did not harm anyone, Lauren would turn a blind eye.
Irene gestured for the two to sit down and began to get ready the tea set.
