The Sabbath Chapter 193: Everyone’s follow-up
Before the future placement of the children is determined, all the children are temporarily arranged in the safest camp, with sufficient nutritional supply, and special personnel will check and measure the body data of each of them, and serve as rescuers When asked if they needed anything else, the other kids didn't know what to say, but only Berg came forward and said he wanted books.
"If you want a lot of books, it's better to have someone come and teach us to read. We've been inside for too long. If we live outside in the future, we need to learn outside knowledge."
Obviously short and short, with a big head and a small body, and a typical stunted body shape, Berg's gaze was extremely firm. Facing unfamiliar adults from outside, he was not timid at all, and calmly stated his request. After that, he kept looking at the adult who was talking to him until the other person showed appreciation and pity on his face, and nodded in agreement.
"This child will be very powerful in the future." More than one adult has said this. Among a group of children, Berg is not the most beautiful or the smartest, but there is no doubt that he is the most important of the children. the one.
He also plays with the children, but he is more like a protector. Mingming is not the oldest, but when encountering problems, almost all children will ask him for help.
Facing the various toys given to them by the rescuers, many children were dazzled by playing with them. Only Berg played for one hour a day, and the rest of the time he would sit by the side and watch other children play, and then bow his head. read a book.
A bright and self-controlled kid.
Many rescuers even offered to adopt him!
You know, this is a rescuer from Sky City! Once adopted by them, in every sense it is a one-step ascension to heaven!
However, Berg politely declined.
"They just see me as sensible and feel sorry for me. This adoption decision was made on impulse. The book says that any guarantee made on impulse is unreliable." In just a few days, Bo Let's start "quoting from the classics"
"Berg should be reading more books than you now." Xiaomei said to Ronggui after glancing at the thick stack of books beside Berg's bed.
Ronggui: =-=
What's the matter with this feeling of being a little crazy but suddenly relieved?
It's easy to understand when I'm crazy, but I'm relieved
Perhaps Xiaomei has been too gentle with him recently? It's been a long time since I heard Xiaomei's poisonous tongue attack, I really miss it
So in the following time, Ronggui was really immersed in the atmosphere of nostalgia.
Berg started to ask questions. He had accumulated a lot of questions. As soon as Xiaomei came over, he asked Xiaomei all of them. Ronggui could understand the questions at the beginning, but later
Should he take some notes or something?
With a stiff smile on his face, Ronggui sat at the side tremblingly.
He then simply sneaked out to play with other children.
Don't say it, the toys in Sky City are high-end! At his age, he always plays with a sense of novelty. In the end, if the visiting hours were not about to end, Xiaomei forcefully pulled him back, he would probably still be playing in the amusement park outside
By the way, the open space of the children's camp is now cleared and leveled, with a safe runway paved and various amusement equipment placed. It is really a "children's paradise".
Before leaving, Berg suddenly stopped Xiaomei in a low voice:
"Well, they asked us about those vines, we all pretended not to understand them and ignored them, brother Xiaomei, should we answer this? How should we answer it?"
After all, he is a child. Although Berg has learned the knowledge of "playing stupid" without a teacher, he knows in his heart that this knowledge will not last long.
"It means that you planted some plants in the pipes for more food and beautification." Xiaomei said, he paused: "As for why these plants grow so big"
"Just say that you bought the fertilizer from me."
"Don't say anything else."
Others, other people will naturally help to add, and what they add will be more like facts than facts——Xiaomei thought to herself.
"Ah, that's great, you don't need to lie." Berg breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
When he smiled, the stiffness that had always existed in his body disappeared immediately.
Xiaomei couldn't hold back, she gently touched his head, and said, "Don't lie."
Lying is someone else's business.
They just planted things, and he just provided fertilizer, at most he ran a little farther to fertilize.
Berg, who let go of his psychological burden, waved vigorously at Ronggui and Xiaomei, and sent them away with the other children in secret. After that, Berg put down the book in his hand and went to play with the other children
He decided to play an extra hour today!
Then only Uncle Wang's family is left.
The ones who don't care about living in a multi-person barracks are Uncle Wang's family
The big family of more than 20 people lived together and didn't care. It didn't matter that the clothesline outside was not enough, they pulled a new rope inside the house, and the family lived in a lively and noisy It doesn't matter if you are noisy, those who work, those who talk, and those who sleep, don't interfere with each other at all!
This is really an innate skill that only people born in places with extremely high population density can have.
What's more, in just a few days, the old Wang's family actually dug out a small vegetable field outside the camp, and never forgot to plant it! This, this, this
It's really a racial talent!
Realizing this point again, Ronggui smiled for no reason.
Obviously they all look like foreigners with blond hair and blue eyes, but Uncle Wang's family really gives him the feeling of his hometown all the time, and his hometown still exists!
Ronggui dragged Xiaomei into the crowded hut.
In the corner of the hut, on the quietest, cleanest and largest bed, Ronggui saw Uncle Wang.
"I'm all right." Uncle Wang warmly entertained them. As soon as they entered the door, all the busy Wang family members gathered together. Those who brought tea brought tea, and those who poured water, er, now Xiaomei can drink The tea is ready, and Ronggui can't do it yet, so he can only take the towel handed over by the Wang family and wipe his paws.
"Alan brought me to ask you for help. Although the old man is in a coma, I still remember something."
"You really saved my life!" The old man thanked him sincerely.
When the old man expressed his thanks, the juniors next to him burst into tears, and they were about to bow down, Rong Gui hurriedly stopped them.
"Uncle Agui told you not to pray, so please don't. The people in our hometown are enthusiastic and helpful. Uncle Agui is like this, and you will do the same in the future." The old man waved to the juniors : "You guys go down first, I'll talk to you Uncle Agui and Uncle Mei."
Ronggui:  ̄ ̄?
and
Uncle?
This inexplicable seniority, but, all kinds of inexplicable seniority seem to be Chinese characteristics?
Ronggui adjusted the pillow on the back for the old man, moved closer, and affectionately took the old man's hand and sat on the big bed.
"Well, although I just told them not to be too polite, I really appreciate you in my heart." The old man also held Ronggui's hand behind his back, and looked at him kindly, the old man's eyes were gentle: "You and Xiaomei saved not only me, but also the children in my family, and Alan"
"Don't look at them now, they are busy with their own small family every day, but they are actually capable and capable children, especially Alan. Alan's personality is gentler now, but in essence he is still a child. Very extreme."
"Maybe I take myself too seriously, but I'm really worried about what Alan will do if something happens to me, and what will happen to the kids outside"
The old man looked at Ronggui quietly, his eyes fell on Xiaomei's face, Xiaomei seemed to be taken aback for a moment, but the old man didn't seem to notice, just continued to look at Xiaomei until Xiaomei and him were at eye level.
The old man smiled friendly, then his smile faded away, and he looked straight outside the door until he saw the ice and snow outside: "There is one thing I didn't tell you the truth at the time."
"I picked up Alan in the snow outside."
"When I picked up Alan, our family had just moved from outside to the current place."
"At that time, I didn't know what the prison was like. It was hard to find a family's livelihood. I just wanted to see if there was any opportunity to do business."
"Then I drove over by myself."
"Then, I found Alan in the snow."
"At that time, Alan was just about the same age as Marlene."
"By the way, Marlene is the child you rescued on the way here just now, probably because of similar circumstances, that child Alan finally picked up Marlene back."
"The child Marlene quickly integrated into our family, but Alan was different at that time."
"I don't know what he experienced inside, he closed his heart."
"Don't let yourself out, and don't let anyone in."
"I thought about it, and after taking him back, I announced to the other children that this is my long-lost eldest son."
"Because everyone was picked up by me. Everyone is not too obsessed with the order. The order of everyone is shifted one by one. In this way, Allen has become the person with the highest seniority in this big family besides me. .”
"Some people are probably born to take responsibility, and they are born to take responsibility."
"Alan is such a person."
"Became the head of the family, others have to ask him about everything, and when he makes a decision, Allen actually walks out of it step by step."
"Until it became what it is now."
"Although he is a bit domineering, he is a very reliable patriarch and a very filial son."
Hearing what he said up to now, Ronggui's surprise has been fully expressed on his face, his expression has become a particularly perfect "囧" word!
Seeing him like this, the old man smiled at him slyly: "How about it, is it a good idea?"
"It's very good, but I always thought that Grandpa Allen" was an old man, and "I already called him Grandpa!" Rong Gui struggled.
Uncle Wang was happy: "Very good, very good, that kid Alan likes to be called grandpa the most."
"Just keep calling him"
Fortunately, Ronggui is not a person who is particularly entangled. He was only troubled by this question for a while, and finally felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he immediately let go of the question and asked Alan The whereabouts of up:
"He has been delayed there for a while, people need to check it, but we received his message yesterday, it seems that the investigation is finally over, they brought him back by the way, it stands to reason that he should arrive in the next two days "Uncle Wang was talking, when there was a burst of cheers outside, and then all the Wang family members who were working outside came in, and everyone came in surrounded by one person. Ronggui turned his head and looked—
"Grandpa Allen!" He called out without hesitation.
"Yeah." Alan's smile answered him.
Striding over, after the touching scene of the reunion of father and son, Alan turned his head to look at Ronggui and Xiaomei, and exchanged a signal that only the three of them knew.
"Everything is going well" - Allen said nothing to them.
Ronggui finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Then Allen looked forward to the future for them:
"Marlene needs to cooperate with the proof, they will come to ask you some questions, but don't be afraid, I will accompany you there."
"As a victim, our family will get a lot of compensation this time. They didn't want to. I negotiated with them on the road, and they doubled the original compensation."
There was a burst of cheers in the room.
Although they have experienced a lot of hardships, they are more used to looking forward.
Ronggui was also really happy for them, but besides being happy, he thought of the children again: "I don't know if those children can get compensation, they are still underage, alas, I don't know what will happen to them in the future "
The children are still unaccounted for, which is Ronggui's hidden worry.
As if he understood Ronggui's heart, Allen waited until everyone finished laughing, and then said again: "I asked them about their future plans here."
"This place will no longer be a prison in the future, and the vines will not be removed, just like a natural monument. It will probably be deliberately maintained as a monumental city, and some schools may be built around it for future law enforcement officers. Come and study for a while every year, and remind them of the crimes Pezer committed."
"There are too many children here. Due to their special background, it is not very suitable to be placed anywhere. It is more likely to establish a separate nursing home for them, and choose a nearby location."
"So—"
Ailun looked at Ronggui and Xiaomei: "On the way, I asked them about the qualifications they need to raise, and I also asked them about the conditions for becoming guardians of those children."
"I have basically convinced them that if those children are willing, our family can establish a foster home on the planet we live in in the future to raise these children, which can be regarded as adopting all the children in disguise."
Ronggui stared at him blankly.
Alan smiled: "Anyway, our family has already raised so many children. If we have more children, the family will be more lively!"
"Thank you, Grandpa Alan!" With a loud cry, Ronggui rushed over.
Tucking himself into Alan's arms, Ronggui turned his head to look at Xiaomei, meaning to ask Xiaomei to come over too.
Xiaomei hesitated, and Alan smiled when he hesitated, and then stretched out his hand, hugging Xiaomei together.
Xiaomei quietly enjoyed this hug.
In memory, the image of the blond man staring coldly at him slowly disappeared in this embrace.
That night, the camp asked the children if they would like to be raised in the foster care that Allen had set up.
All the children nodded.
So, this matter is settled.
The next day, those who did not need to serve their sentences were transferred out one after another.
Ronggui also decided to follow Alan back to Chinatown to have a look.
