Chapter 301: BEAR MEAT
The conversation lasted until evening, Cane and Koda even skipped lunch, therefore, Iris was also still in the orphanage because Cane didn’t give an instruction for her to leave alone.
When they finally ended the conversation, the sky had already turned so dark because the sun set faster in winter. All the dark corners of the building were being illuminated by the fire from the braziers and the luminous pearls.
However, in the yard, you could hear the sound of children still playing. It was not well into night yet and they were still full of vigor.
Their joyfulness intrigued Cane to go closer and find out what they were laughing about, but a little child ran toward him and almost bumped into him if it were not for him stopping this little girl in time.
"I am sorry," the little girl said. She was around the age of seven. She looked scared, terrified Cane would get angry at her.
"It’s okay..." Cane said lightly, as he patted her head. "Why are you here?" There were no children aside from this kid around this area, though this place was safe, it would be better if she did not roam around alone.
The little girl’s face lit up as she spoke. "There is a huuuge bear there!" She stretched her arms to show how big the creature was. "We wanted to feed it, but my friend said bears usually eat meat, so I’m going to get meat!" She said excitedly.
"Huge bear?" Cane furrowed his brows. Wasn’t it dangerous to let a bear inside an orphanage full of children? "Where is it?" He didn’t express his agitation, but how could no one notice a huge bear in this area?
"Here, over here!" The little girl jumped up and down, as she held Cane’s hand to lead him toward the huge bear they found. "The bear is white! As white as snow!" She chirped, excited.
