Chapter 84: Sneaking into the Orphanage!
The heavy clouds were quickly shattered by the Valkyrie's huge body.
Gradually, a scar like a wound appeared in the sky.
The interior of the cabin was shaking slightly.
Rorschach put on the Sun-style Void Combat Armor with skillful movements.
He stared at the many weapons laid out before him.
In the end, he chose the chainsword and the bolter and carried them on his back.
Then, after hesitating for a moment, Rorschach picked up the plasma pistol and the refraction field generator and stuffed them on his body.
After completing the preparations.
Rorschach raised a finger expressionlessly.
His fingertips tapped lightly on the helmet of the combat armor.
A dull voice slowly sounded from the helmet:
"One, two, three, test... Is the communication channel connected?"
"The signal is clear, my Lord, everything is normal."
Iron Man David's mechanical voice came from the communication device and echoed in Rorschach's ears.
Click——
Satisfied, Rorschach shook the neck of his combat armor.
He slowly sat down on the seat inside the cabin.
The armored hands were placed flat on the knees.
He stood with his back straight, waiting to reach his target location.
——Smalville
.
It's just a small rural town under the jurisdiction of Kansas.
The vast majority of residents living here are farmers and workers.
Moreover, the town is located in a remote area and has lost a large number of young people.
This also means there is no exciting nightlife here.
Especially since a storm that has been brewing for days is about to arrive.
Most residents returned home early to sleep from the only bar open in town.
At this moment, in a forest a few kilometers away from the town.
The huge Valkyrie transport plane hovered above the ground with the roar of its engines.
With the sound of the mechanical valve turning, a tall figure jumped down from the cabin.
Boom——
Rorschach's heavy body fell heavily to the ground.
The two armored feet sank deeply into the mud.
He waved his thumb nonchalantly in the direction of the cockpit.
The Valkyrie, with its agile flying movements, rose quickly.
It began to hover in the night sky outside the town.
"The action begins..."
Rorschach, standing in place, explored the direction through his helmet with the night vision function activated.
Then he ran towards a lush cornfield.
Based on the map provided by Iron Man David.
The Red River Orphanage is located just on the edge of the small town of Smallville.
It is barely surrounded by a small river that runs through most of the town.
Maybe for the children who are in it.
The entire orphanage is an isolated island.
Not long after, Rorschach chose a shallow spot to wade through and crouched next to a few skinny corn plants.
Right in front of him, a four-story ancient building stood beneath the gloomy night sky.
At first glance, the interior of the building, like a sleeping beast, is almost pitch black.
Only a few street lights outside were still bright.
Rorschach stared at the nearby building.
He whispered into the communication device,
"David, block the orphanage's surveillance equipment and network communication signals."
"My Lord, it was completed five minutes ago."
Hear the reply from Iron Man David.
Rorschach took a deep breath.
He quickly stood up and stepped forward.
With just one leap he climbed over a low wall.
Bang——
The heavy body wearing combat armor fell heavily to the ground with a dull thud.
Rorschach glanced cautiously at his surroundings.
After finding that it did not attract any attention.
He moved cautiously across an open space, like a wolf ambushing its prey.
We arrived under the orphanage building.
Boom boom
Right at this moment.
Suddenly, bursts of low thunder sounded in the gloomy night sky.
The rain began to fall quickly.
Watered on the land of the small town of Smallville.
Rorschach, with his back against the wall, seemed unaware of the sudden rainstorm.
He looked through the window.
He checked the interior of the building repeatedly.
What appeared before Rorschach seemed to be a classroom and activity room for children.
There are some tables and chairs inside.
There are also boxes of toys piled up in the corner.
Rorschach tentatively pushed the window against which raindrops were beating.
After discovering that the window was not locked.
He immediately pushed open the window and climbed into the room.
Snap——
A pair of muddy soles stepped on the clean floor.
There was a slight noise.
Strands of rain dripped slowly along the metal surface of the combat armor.
Rorschach turned around and closed the window, then stepped forward.
Came directly to the entrance of the room.
He listened attentively.
After hearing no sound from outside the door, he slowly opened the door.
squeak--
However, the moment Rorschach opened the door.
A short figure suddenly appeared outside the dark corridor.
He almost collided head-on with Rorschach!
Rorschach was startled in an instant.
His hand quickly grasped the plasma pistol, ready to fire.
However, when he looked carefully at the short figure in front of him.
He immediately loosened his grip on the plasma pistol.
It turned out to be a little boy in green pajamas!
Judging from his bare feet and closed eyes.
Obviously, the little boy in front of him was sleepwalking.
Rorschach carefully walked past the sleepwalking little boy.
The sleepwalking little boy walked into the room silently.
He walked slowly towards the toy box in the corner.
At this moment, Rorschach stared at the little boy's back with an expressionless face.
Silence.
Then he gathered his thoughts.
He began to explore every room in the orphanage along the corridor.
Twenty minutes later.
After searching almost the entire orphanage, Rorschach returned to the first floor.
He whispered into the communication device:
"David, we have searched all the rooms in the orphanage. We found nothing except sleeping children and teachers...Are you sure you are in the right place?"
"Wait a moment... My Lord, please go to the bathroom on the first floor and search again. Electromagnetic signals have been continuously echoing in that location."
"bathroom?"
Rorschach narrowed his eyes slightly behind his helmet.
He quickly rushed to the designated location.
At this moment, the heavy rain outside seemed to pour down even faster.
The sound of the heavy rain also covered up the slight noises made by the combat armor.
Rorschach returned to the bathroom.
He once again explored every corner of the room.
Finally, right under a sink.
Rorschach bent down to investigate and discovered a special device with a keyhole.
There seemed to be two old light bulbs, one red and one green, still left on it.
"David?"
"Entering...Done."
Accompanied by the mechanical voice of Iron Man David.
Right in front of Rorschach.
The entire washbasin along with the wall suddenly opened slowly to one side.
An underground passage that could only accommodate one person was exposed!
"Ha...Open Sesame!"
The tall figure in combat armor bowed slightly toward the entrance that had just appeared.
