Renhui Relief Hospital
Back outside, the lake is sparkling in the sunlight as the wind blows gently, lifting one's mood.
Children are running in the distance, looking carefree and innocent.
You: Regardless of Director Xu's personality, it seems that the children here are doing well...
Vyn: ...
Vyn presses his lips together as if he wants to say something, but he is interrupted by Marius.
Marius: Little Boss, Interpreter Richter, look over there...
following Marius' gaze, you spot a girl squatting by the lake and reaching for something in the water. It looks dangerous...
Without much thought, you all rush over to the girl.
You: Careful!
Marius pulls the young girl back on the grass. When the girl stands up, she looks at everyone blankly.
Wen: Mister... Miss... Did I do something wrong?
Marius: No, you didn't. But what you were doing just now was dangerous, okay?
Wen: Dangerous? I just wanted to catch some fish. I'm Wen. I come to play here every day. No one cares about me, so it's not dangerous!
Marius: No one cares?
Vyn: ...
You: ???
Upon hearing what Wen said, you all finally notice patches of white on her skin...
You: (These white spots... don't appear to be drawn on.)
You: (Not only are the costumes here well done, but they even paid so much attention to these details...)
Before you can think, Vyn is already crouching down, holding Wen's hand.
Vyn: Tell me, how come nobody cares about you?
Wen: Because I'm not pretty, so they don't like me.
At the same time, Wen rolls up her sleeves to reveal larger patches of white skin. However, she sounds perfectly happy.
Wen: But that's okay. They don't like me, but I like myself.
Wen: I can play by myself!
You: ...
Marius: That...
Hearing this, you can't stop the mixed feelings in your heart.
You look up at Vyn and Marius, who both have complicated expressions on their faces.
Just when everyone is silent, Wen is the first to laugh, clapping her hands together.
Wen: Yay, with all of you here, we can play house!
Wen: Do you want to play with me?
You: Of course.
Marius: For as long as you want.
Vyn: You can decide the characters we play.
Seeing Wen's bright smile, the sadness in everyone's hearts fades somewhat.
After playing house, everyone also plays hide-and-seek and tag with Wen, who plays until she lays on the grass, out of breath.
Wen: You guys are so nice! I haven't been this happy in a long time!
Wen: The last time was when Grandpa Li was here!
Wen: But I had more fun playing today, because Grandpa Li doesn't play house and tag with me!
You: Grandpa Li?
Wen: Yeah, Grandpa Li comes to visit me every month. But he hasn't been here in a long time... I miss him.
Upon hearing this, the three of you exchange a look. It's clear that Grandpa Li... is Uncle Li.
Marius: Can you tell me...
Marius: What games Grandpa Li played with you?
Wen: Umm...
Wen looks around cautiously. Then, as if coming to a decision, she inches closer to you all, speaking in a low whisper.
Wen: Grandpa Li told me not to tell anyone...
Wen: But you guys are good people! It's okay if I tell you!
Wen: Grandpa Li loves to play treasure hunt with me.
Vyn: Treasure hunt?
Wen: Yeah, I'll take you to the secret hideout!
You all follow Wen to the Renhui Relief Hospital back garden. Before you reach the garden, you hear the sound of machinery.
Renhui Relief Hospital Backyard
A group of workers are disposing of trees in the back garden and apparently moving the lumber elsewhere.
Wen: My box!
Upon seeing this, Wen rushes toward the giant pit, but before she can get close, a worker grabs her by the arm.
Wen: You guys are meanies! Give me back my box!
Staff: Where did this kid come from? Who's responsible for this kid?
You all quickly step forward to protect Wen.
You: Sorry for disrupting your work. May I ask what you're doing...?
Staff: Don't you have eyes? We're moving the old trees. This land will be used in the future, so we have to move all the vegetation.
Staff: You guys... are visitors at the relief hospital, right?
Staff: There's nothing to see in the back garden. Why don't you guys go somewhere else?
Without waiting for you all to respond, Wen bursts into tears.
Wen: *Sobs*... you big meanie! Gimme back my box... Give it back.
Seeing this, the worker is a bit confused. You bend down to pat Wen on the head.
You: Don't be sad, Wen. We'll help you find it.
You: But first, can you tell me about the box?
Wen: They... *sobs*... took away my secret hideout with the treasure box I buried with Grandpa Li...
You: (The treasure box she buried with Grandpa Li?)
Wen: My box... *sobs* my box...
Staff: ...Is the girl talking about a wooden box?
Staff: We came across one when we were digging up the tree, but we thought it was trash and tossed it...
Marius: Tossed it? How long ago?
Staff: Not long, the garbage truck just left...
Vyn: We can make it.
The three of you look at each other and immediately understood each other's thoughts.
After consoling Wen, the three of you sprint after the garbage truck...
