Great, It's the Pervy Neighbor. We're Doomed

Chapter 666: Happy Orphanage

This young man definitely wasn't killed by him. He'd have to be crazy to commit murder.So then, someone else killed the young man.

Maybe the killer was among the onlookers.

After all, some murderers especially love returning to the scene to act like innocent bystanders.

Soon, the police arrived.

Quite a few police officers showed up.

Once the police arrived, they began processing the scene.

At the same time, they also started their investigation.

Li Shumu had been watching from the sidelines the whole time.

He also wanted to see who the murderer of that young man was.

After the police came, their first move was to check the surveillance footage.

But from Manager Mao Li Zhishu's mouth, they learned that the surveillance system for this entire building had been invaded by a virus and was completely paralyzed.

The police naturally couldn't just take one side's word for it.

They still went to the surveillance room to check, and sure enough, it was just as he said.

Without surveillance footage, this murder case immediately became much harder to solve.

The police continued their investigation here for an hour, until around seven in the morning, before packing up and leaving.

The final result would still require more time to solve.

At this moment, Lei Xiaoman was lying on the bed in her assigned Room 601.

Wrapped in a thick down comforter, she lay on her side, having a video call with her boyfriend.

Just moments ago, she had transferred ten thousand yuan to her boyfriend on WeChat.

That ten thousand yuan was exactly the one-day ten-thousand payment she had received.

Just like many lab rats from previous rounds.

Lei Xiaoman woke up in the morning, picked up her phone, and saw the bank SMS notification for a ten-thousand yuan deposit. She was still dazed.

She probably never imagined they would actually give her ten thousand.

The money came so easily.

But she quickly snapped out of her surprise and transferred the money to her boyfriend.

She hadn't forgotten that the reason she moved in here was to raise money for her boyfriend's mother's surgery.

"Baby, thank you."

"I really don't know how to thank you enough!"

On Lei Xiaoman's phone screen was the image of a young man crying his eyes out.

The reason Lei Xiaoman was so devoted to him—this young man named Sun Jiankang—was that he definitely had an advantage in appearance.

His features were above average, his skin was very fair, absolutely the pale type among guys.

At first glance, he gave the impression of being good-looking, very fresh and clean.

"It's okay, it's the least I could do. By the way, how much more does Auntie need for her surgery?"

"Let me see... Hmm, we still need about fifty to sixty thousand."

"Fifty to sixty thousand, huh..."

Lei Xiaoman thought that staying for a week would be enough.

So she comforted her boyfriend, telling him not to worry, that Auntie's surgery money would be gathered soon enough.

Her boyfriend Sun Jiankang also said, "Don't worry. The doctor said my mom's condition isn't particularly urgent. We have time to raise the money."

The two of them spent quite a while being lovey-dovey through their phones before reluctantly hanging up.

At Lei Xiaoman's boyfriend's side.

Sun Jiankang wasn't at the university dormitory right now. Instead, he was downstairs at the girls' dormitory.

In his hand, he held a white plastic bag containing a steamer basket of small soup dumplings and a carton of soy milk.

In the cold wind, even though he was wearing gloves, he still felt that the hand holding his phone while making the call was freezing cold.

Luckily, the call was finally over.

He put his phone away and stood there waiting quietly.

About five minutes passed.

From the girls' dormitory building, a petite young girl wrapped in a down jacket walked out.

This petite girl's fair, tender face was peeking out from the thick fur-lined hood of her down jacket. She looked very pure and cute.

Her looks were completely on another level compared to Lei Xiaoman's.

The petite girl bounced and hopped her way over to Sun Jiankang, took the breakfast, and gave him a smacking kiss that made Sun Jiankang's heart bloom with joy.

With that, Sun Jiankang said, "Baby, haven't you been wanting the latest Fruit Phone for a while now?"

The petite girl nodded. "Yeah, I really want one. All my roommates have one, and I'm the only one who doesn't. I feel so left out!"

Sun Jiankang replied, "No worries. Your man will take you to buy one this afternoon! As long as you're free this afternoon!"

The petite girl was ecstatic. "Really?"

She threw herself into Sun Jiankang's arms.

Sun Jiankang said, "Really. When have I ever lied to you?"

"Mmm... Honey, you're the best..."

The petite girl cuddled and acted cute against Sun Jiankang for quite a while. But because it was too cold downstairs, the two of them finally had to force themselves apart and head back to their respective dorms.

On his way back to the dormitory, Sun Jiankang eagerly looked forward to taking his new girlfriend to buy a phone that afternoon.

Even more, he looked forward to getting a hotel room that night.

At the same time, he kept comparing Lei Xiaoman and the petite girl in his mind.

He felt that Lei Xiaoman was inferior to the petite girl in every way.

How did he ever end up dating her in the first place?

"It's because her family has money. Her old man is a pig farmer."

Sun Jiankang's hand, buried deep in his right pocket, tightened its grip on his phone.

"Having money is great. A little lie, and she gives me ten thousand."

All that talk about his mother being sick and needing surgery costing hundreds of thousands?

It was all a lie, of course.

His goal was just to squeeze money out of Lei Xiaoman.

With this excuse, plus the ten thousand today, he had already gotten a hundred thousand from Lei Xiaoman.

He had even considered just breaking up with Lei Xiaoman outright.

After all, he really couldn't stand looking at her anymore, especially having to make video calls and pretend to be deeply in love with her.

"Forget it, I'll just keep this up. Since she's out there sending me money... I'll put up with it for a while longer, for the sake of the cash."

...

Alice Apartment.

Jiang Ran and Yang Qi gathered on the first floor.

Last night, after hearing Yang Qi mention that he often volunteers at the local orphanage in his free time, Jiang Ran asked if he could go with him sometime.

As it happened, today was Yang Qi's day off.

So they agreed to meet here and head out together.

Soon, Yang Qi met up with Jiang Ran at the base of Building No. 1.

After Yang Qi arrived, he just said, "Let's go."

Jiang Ran looked around. "Is it just the two of us?"

Yang Qi nodded.

Jiang Ran had thought that after what Yang Qi said last night, it would inspire a few more people to come along.

He didn't expect it to be just him.

"Taking an electric bike or...?"

"Let's take a taxi. I'll call one. It's too cold this weather."

The two of them walked to the main gate.

Yang Qi pulled out his phone and ordered a rideshare.

If he had been going to the orphanage alone today, he would have definitely taken his own electric bike. Save money wherever you can.

But since he was bringing Jiang Ran along, he couldn't very well have him ride on the back of his electric bike in this freezing winter morning.

Nancheng City had one orphanage, called Nancheng City Happy Orphanage.

The name was simple—just one word: "Happy."

The meaning was also simple: to let the orphans living there be happy for their entire lives.

Even though that was very difficult for these children.

The Happy Orphanage wasn't very large.

It housed a total of just over a hundred orphans.
