Empire Spring [Rebirth]
Chapter 21 Chapter Family
Chu Qi was locked up in the basement of a tall building together with the two children, and he had not received any harsh treatment these days.
Although it is a basement, the environment is not bad, and there are all kinds of daily necessities, but there are strict access control to restrict access, which makes the people living in it feel like being imprisoned.
Someone regularly cleaned the room and brought food and replacement clothes, and even some advanced toys of this era, obviously not wanting to offend the guests here too much.
Ben and Simpson were a little scared at first, but after all, they had their elders by their side and didn't really encounter any terrible things, so they gradually calmed down.
While Chu Qi studied those little toys to play with them, he intermittently recalled the events of his previous life.
At that time, as a dangerous person, he certainly didn't have the freedom he has now.His hands and feet were restricted, so he could only sit in a small cell with heavy guards guarding the door.
But at that time, he didn't think it was too unbearable. The physical pain was superficial after all, and he just felt it was a pity.
It is a pity for all human beings to lose the opportunity to get rid of the pheromone drive and gain real freedom so easily.Many people are unaware of the choices they once had, so that 60 years later, people are still classified, restricted, and enslaved, but they don't know the sadness.
This is against the law of historical development, Chu Qi thought, he had planned to do some things slowly relying on the cover-up of his current identity, but obviously the disadvantages brought to him by this identity far outweighed the benefits.
In this case, you have to think of other ways.Chu Qi pressed the last piece of the three-dimensional jigsaw puzzle, and the figure automatically started to rotate, and the colors of each surface reflected each other, reflecting a bright light.
Ben was a little dumbfounded: "Uncle, such a complicated thing, you installed it so quickly?" I always feel that this uncle is a little different from everyone he has met, and this difference seems to have nothing to do with face and blood.
Chu Qi dismantled one side in front of him, then installed the other side, then looked at him: "Is it done?"
There was no expression on his face, but Ben could see from it that if he couldn't do it, he would feel ashamed of the world.
As soon as he hesitated, Simpson rushed over with sparkling eyes: "Let me try it."
For the seven-year-old him, this was naturally not an easy task. Simpson made more and more messes. Ben couldn't see it, so he leaned over to help.
Of course there was no result.
Chu Qi demonstrated it again, and now Ben and Simpson became serious, memorizing every step carefully, and when it was time to disassemble and reassemble, the two of them discussed it and even reassembled it.
The child who found it boring after finishing it put the toy aside, sighed and said, "When will I be able to go home?"
"It should be soon." Chu Qi thought for a while and replied.
"How do you know?" Simpson asked him.
"They brought us here to threaten your father with something," Chu Qi said with certainty, "I mean General Pound. As far as your brother and his problematic young friends are concerned, obviously there is no such thing capable."
Ben nodded in agreement: "Of course they can't, uncle, you just knocked them down by yourself."
Chu Qi glanced at him, and felt that he seemed to have misunderstood something, but continued: "So the threat is success or failure, and the result is almost due in the next few days, and you will be able to go home soon, so don't worry too much. He paused at last, and added a word of comfort.
Ben suddenly realized a question: "What about you, uncle?"
Chu Qi was silent for a moment, and said, "I can't deduce it yet, but it's not a big deal." Things that have nothing to do with life and death are not big things.
The two children each dragged one of his hands and began to burst into tears.
Chu Qi was a little unaccustomed to the intimacy of this kind of child, subconsciously trembled and did not struggle away, and let them drag him along.
"Don't cry." Chu Qi suddenly felt a headache.
It’s fine if he doesn’t say anything, but as soon as the words came out, the two children burst into tears, sniffing their noses while crying and saying, “We’re going home with uncle.”
Just when Chu Qi was at a loss, the door was swiped open, and two low-level officials from the police station walked in.Seeing this scene, they were almost terribly worried. They had been fine for the past few days, and they cried a lot before leaving, obviously they couldn't hide it from General Pound's eyes.
One of them had an idea and took out a piece of candy from his pocket: "Don't cry?"
Simpson gave him a teary look and sobbed, "Childish."
The man was about to cry when he looked at the candy in his hand. It was always the boss who made the decision, and the subordinate was always the one who took the blame.General Pound will come to trouble the police station when the time comes, and it will be their staff who are unlucky.
Seeing two children holding Chu Qi's hand, the other finally grasped the point: "You two young masters, I am sending you and your uncle back to the General's Mansion together."
Didn't even get embarrassed?Chu Qi himself was also a little surprised, no matter how smart he was, he definitely couldn't think of William's miraculous stroke at this moment.
The three of them were immediately escorted out of the house, and the police officers packed all the items they had worn and used for the past few days to show their favor, and it looked like they were really going on a trip.
Someone from the general's mansion had already gone out to greet them. Standing at the front were General William and his spouse Andy, but they stood on each side without even making eye contact with each other.
William felt ashamed, but he didn't want to bow his head and explain to Andy. Andy hated him for being so hard-hearted that he didn't even care about his own son. The relationship between the two fell to freezing point for a while.
Fortunately, the appearance of the two children broke the deadlock. Simpson cried and ran towards Andy. Ben held Chu Qi's hand and walked behind calmly, as if he had grown up suddenly.
Andy was heartbroken, and reached out to hug Simpson and stroked his hair, then looked at the eldest son and younger brother not far away, with gentle eyes.
He walked over, looked at Chu Qi and said apologetically, "I'm sorry."
Chu Qi pursed his lips: "I said earlier that if we blame our father, we should blame it... It has nothing to do with you, brother."
Now, he called the word "brother" sincerely, after all, no one had ever cared about him like this.
Andy's eyes darkened, he sighed slightly and said, "It's good to be back."
After all, Simpson was young and didn't know how to distinguish the emotions of adults. As soon as he hugged Andy, he turned around and rushed towards Pound.
Pound loved this coquettish young son very much in the past, but this time he was wronged for a few days due to the overall situation. Now seeing his young son feel a lot thinner, he couldn't help feeling distressed, and picked him up with his big hand and asked: "In Didn’t eat well over there? Did you get bullied?”
Simpson flattened his mouth: "That's not true. Before I was caught, I was thrown into the artificial lake of the school by Dave. It was my brother who jumped into the water to save me, and my uncle."
He sued the complaint in a few sentences cleverly and also claimed credit by the way.
Pound's face was livid: "Dave?"
Simpson raised his face to look at him: "Father, don't you know? It was Nick and Dave who took us out of the school, and Oscar was there. Then they robbed my brother's communicator and called Uncle Chuqi. trouble him."
"He threw you into the lake?" Pound asked again for confirmation.
"Yeah! Who knows why he threw me into the water, why don't you ask my father?" Simpson said angrily. Although drowning was terrible for him, he still didn't realize the horror and seriousness of death.
Pound obviously didn't need to verify anything anymore. His other sons were still locked in their rooms at the moment, but the matter was no longer a simple bullying incident.He has always wanted to whitewash the peace, but in the end there is no peace, but it is extremely difficult to make a decision, after all, they are all his children.
Andy rushed to Pound angrily, raised his chin and asked, "I don't regret my life, but my son is also your son. What did they do wrong? Do you really have to kill everyone to be willing?" ?”
"What nonsense?" Pound said coldly, "I've been protecting you all the time, haven't I?"
"Protection?" Andy sneered, "Protection means letting your son try to drown my son?"
Pang De looked at him with a headache and said: "You have said it all, your son is also my son, how could I do such a thing?"
"But your son can do it!" Andy said firmly.
Pang De couldn't help becoming annoyed: "Isn't my son also your son? If you hadn't regarded Louis and the others as your sons, could the relationship between them and their younger brother be so bad?"
Finally, Andy couldn't help it, and taunted sharply: "Have you ever seen a son who wanted to forcefully mark his father? He is really a good son you taught, just like you."
Pound suddenly raised his voice: "What did you say?"
It was only then that Andy realized that he had slipped his mouth. Those shameful memories that he didn't want to mention were revealed in public, and he didn't seem to care about it.It is not Andy who should be ashamed, but Pound's genetically inferior son, and himself.
Andy spoke word by word: "You didn't hear clearly just now, then let me tell you clearly again, your eldest son Louis intends to cheat on me, your second son Dave tried to drown Simpson, Your third son, Oscar, is watching. I don't know why I treat these criminals as my own sons. And you, how did you get me in the first place? Have you forgotten? During my father's reign, Even if there is something wrong, he has never done anything like bullying and stealing. And you, the so-called high-level officials of the new regime, have done a lot of bad things behind the scenes. I have nothing to say about success, Back then you didn't let me die, so I could only live like this. But it's good if I can't die, so that I can watch here and see how long you shameless villains can be proud of?"
Chu Qi was almost stunned by his brother's tirade, and Andy obviously wanted to kill Pound if he angered Pang De so much. Could it be that he had already had a death wish in his mind and just took the opportunity to explode?But please die...
And he is dead, for the sake of the child, maybe Pang De will really fight for the ownership of Chu Qi...
Pound went from being shocked at the beginning, to ashamed, to angry, and finally calmed down gradually.He looked at Andy coldly and said: "At that time, I didn't allow you to die, and it's the same now. What do you want to wait and see, just wait. Your younger brother is luckier than you, and he will give the emperor The special envoy has gone to be the imperial cook, so I don’t need to worry about it. Those people you don’t want to see will not appear in front of you in the future as you wish. As for this family, if you want it, don’t forget it.” After finishing speaking, He turned around and left alone, his tall and straight back was surprisingly lonely.
Andy sneered to himself, and after standing there for a while, he raised his hand and patted his younger brother's shoulder as if he was recovering, then took a son with one hand, and walked towards the dark and old house where there was only one place to go. Went over there.
Although it is a basement, the environment is not bad, and there are all kinds of daily necessities, but there are strict access control to restrict access, which makes the people living in it feel like being imprisoned.
