Chapter 570: 481-our lives (1!
Even though Lu Xin had said that he wanted to keep a low profile, there were still five cars. Lu Xin and doll were in the second car, professor Chen liqing and a few other researchers who were in charge of the doll project were in the third car, Chen Jing and a few aptitude users in charge of security were in the fourth car, and fully armed soldiers were in the first and fifth cars to clear the way and escort the rear.
The first place they arrived at was a quiet residential area in the Western District of the main city.
Lu Xin and doll alighted from the car, and Chen Jing caught up from behind and brought them upstairs.
The other cars and people followed behind. They didn’t join in and just quietly accompanied him.
Chen Jing did not ask Lu Xin what he wanted to do with the doll. As they walked, she explained to Lu Xin in a low voice, ” this is the residence of Captain Li Jian’s mother, who died in the confrontation with the church of technology. Now, the families of these soldiers and researchers have known about the death. We will make all the arrangements, and there will be generous pension and special care.
we’re very serious about this. You brought the doll here this time for …
Lu Xin looked up at the slightly dilapidated neighborhood and said softly, “”lt’s to fulfill a promise I made before.”
After going upstairs with doll and Chen Jing, Lu Xin saw a woman in her 60s. She looked like she had been through a lot, probably because she had raised her child during the most difficult time of her life after the red Moon fell. Although she received the phone call, she was still surprised. She forced a smile and welcomed Lu Xin and the others into the house.
Lu Xin took out a folded piece of paper from his black backpack with a serious expression.
“Captain Li Jian asked me to bring this to you. The situation was urgent at the time, so he didn’t have time to write it himself.’
“l was the one who wrote these words down, but I remembered them very carefully at the time and didn’t leave a single word behind.”
After explaining, he handed the paper to the old man.
The old man took the folded paper, his rough hands slightly trembling.
She should be a strong old woman. After all, she was able to take care of her child through the most chaotic and difficult times. On top of that, now that she knew about her child’s sacrifice, her emotions had been soothed. So, after reading the few words on the paper, she still had a smile on her face as she said to Lu Xin, look, look at this child. He’s already …
He’s still so petty and doesn’t want me to give his uncle money.”
As she laughed, her eyes turned red. She raised her hand to wipe her tears and said with a smile, “”But …
Tears rolled down her face, and her voice trembled. but the children are gone.
I’ll keep the money, and …
“What other use is there?”
Chen Jing, who was beside him, sighed softly.
Lu Xin, on the other hand, looked at the old man calmly and listened carefully.
Doll was a little confused and could only sit obediently at the side.
After leaving the neighborhood, the convoy went to a square in the heart of the city. When the convoy arrived, a young woman quickly came down from an office building next to it. She was very beautiful, but she looked a little Haggard. She was wearing a white-collared office suit, but she did not have exquisite makeup on her face like other white-collared workers.
“She is Chen Chengs fiancée.”
Chen Jing introduced Lu Xin in a low voice, “”They were supposed to get married next month.’
Lu Xin nodded lightly and took out a piece of paper from the black bag. He handed it to the woman with a serious expression.
“What is this?”
The woman took the paper in surprise and opened it casually.
After a few seconds of silence, she suddenly laughed and said to Lu Xin, “”That’s great! Thank you!’
“You … You know about this, right?”
“This guy is really shy. We’re already engaged, but he’s not willing to say the three words ‘l love you’. He only knows how to buy things for me desperately. I heard that he’s dead. I thought that I’d never hear him say ‘l love you’ again.” this letter is really great …
he felt guilty at the time. ” Lu Xin replied hesitantly. he said that he should’ve told you to find a better man to marry, but he didn’t say it out loud. He said that he really liked you and hoped that he would be the one to marry you, not someone else …
of course he can’t say that. Isn’t he a bastard? ‘
“If he were to push me into someone else’s arms, what would I be?” the woman looked up at Lu Xin.
“Love is selfish …
he doesn’t want me to marry anyone else. He only wants me to marry him. This sentence is even better than ‘l love you’. ..
the only bad thing is that his words are the same as. I love you’. ..
it’s too fake to be in space …
Lu Xin couldn’t quite understand the woman’s reaction.
There were always some things in this world that seemed to be different from what he imagined, but also seemed to be like this.
He just took the doll and said goodbye to this happy woman.
However, when he walked out of the square and was about to get into the car, he turned around.
He saw the woman sitting alone on the bench with her hand over her mouth and her head lowered, her shoulders trembling.
They came to the house of a woman who lived alone. In this small living room, there was only one woman and a little girl who was more than three years old. There were many things in the room, such as a violin, go, dance shoes, and even a piano in this room that did not look very spacious. It could be seen that this family treasured their daughter very much.
Lu Xin handed the letter he had prepared to the woman and looked at the timid little girl quietly.
When the woman read the letter, her eyes turned red. She softly asked her daughter to go back to her room first.
Then, she looked up at Lu Xin as tears rolled down her face. when he went on a business trip, we just …
we had a fight just now because of which interest class our daughter signed up for …
Lu Xin didn’t know how to answer, so he could only listen quietly.
The doll seemed to feel her sadness and gently raised his hand, but he did not dare to touch her.
I’ve always felt that our daughter should learn something that she’s interested in, but he keeps insisting that our daughter should learn something that will be useful for the future. We’ve quarreled many times over this matter, but he’s so stubborn and refuses to …
1 didn’t expect that in the end, he would still come around …
The woman finally couldn’t hold it in any longer, and her voice sounded like she was about to cry.”But he, he’s still so stubborn . . . ”
“What does our daughter like?” she actually likes it when daddy comes back …
They arrived at a middle school. The teacher brought down a boy with a crew cut and in sportswear. On his neck, there was an obvious tattoo. His hair had been shaved very short, and the stubbles of his blond hair could be seen faintly.
Lu Xin passed the folded letter to him and said, “‘Your brother asked me to tell you to study hard.”
you can’t hang out with the hooligans on the streets anymore. Otherwise, I’ll break your legs.
“He still wants you to study liberal arts.”
The boy took the folded letter and read it twice in silence. Then, he put it into his pocket and stuck his hands in his pants pockets. He raised his head and said to Lu Xin, “”1 don’t hang out with the hooligans anymore, and I’ve shaved my hair. It’s just that this tattoo isn’t easy to wash.”
“But I can’t listen to my brother. I want to study science and become a researcher like him.’
“Because I think …
He revealed a smile that belonged to a teenager and said, ‘
the way my brother died was much more gruesome than what those gangsters described as blood spilling on the streets.
Lu Xin was surprised. After a moment of silence, he patted the boy’s shoulder and said,
“Don’t say that. It’s inauspicious.”
After a pause, he suddenly smiled and said, “”But you’re right about one thing,”
your brother is indeed much tougher than those people who fight and kill on the streets …
The fleet of carriages shuttled through the main city of Qing gang, delivering will after will to many people. There weren’t many will in the black bag because Lu Xin felt that it was a pity that there wasn’t enough time for everyone to leave their will. At this time, he could only promise that he would pass on everything he heard and organized with the doll to those people.
He looked at them. Some were laughing, some were crying, some had changed, and some were desolate.
It was as if he was walking through whirlpools.
He also saw that doll’s expression had changed from the initial confusion to a face full of crystal tears.
In the end, Lu Xin returned to the car with doll. Other than the driver, there were only the two of them in the car. Lu Xin looked at doll and saw that her happy expression had turned into a sad and confused one.
Outside the car window, the shadows of the city streets flashed past like reflections.
“l don’t know if you understand, but this is what I want to tell you.”
Lu Xin looked into the doll’s eyes and said softly, ” this city seems to be like his, but not all of it.
“He needs someone to protect him.”
Looking at doll trying to understand his words, he smiled and said, ” you see, the people behind us are actually very nervous because they are afraid. But in fact, they don’t have to be so afraid because we made this decision not because of their cautious attitude, or rather, it’s not entirely because of their attitude …
what we have to protect has always been the life we like ….
