He had actually gone through these materials once before, but his focus then had been on the files of children whose parents were clearly listed among the Future Tower victims.
This time, his attention settled on children whose parents were not on the victim list.
For example, Finn.
Finn's experience differed somewhat from Loren's and Silvi's. His parents had not died, but disappeared. Because they had been missing for too long and had not paid his rent or tuition, he was expelled from his fully boarding school and reported to the court.
Since no immediate family members were alive, and his more distant relatives were unwilling to adopt him—and take on his tuition and rent bills—he was sent directly to the Orphanage.
He was also one of the children who had stayed at the Orphanage the longest.
Finn had been sent to the Orphanage around nine years ago. Loren had once heard Finn mention that his parents had also gone to Wellens for work.
During his "conversation" with the Black Wolf Gang boss, He Ao had confirmed that the Orphanage had a "partnership" with Note Intelligence. It provided "volunteers" for Note Intelligence's prosthetic development experiments, which were conducted in Sanlian Building.
Through this method, they could clear out the children who did not meet the "requirements," one by one.
The ones left behind were the children they wanted.
From the Bishop's memories, He Ao had seen that the Archbishop had once given the West Luo City bishop a list, ordering him to find the children on it and deal with their relatives.
He Ao had not found the specific information on that list in the memories at the time, but one thing was certain: when the fire finally broke out, all the children should have been on that list.
