Sophie always thought that she was an ordinary flower-growing rabbit. She never thought that she would have relatives come to her door. To be honest, when she saw a tall foreigner in a suit and leather shoes, she was really panicked. Doing things over the wall caused people to come to the door to investigate.

In fact, Sophie was not only not held accountable, but was hit by a big pie that fell from the sky.

"Miss Sophie, your biological grandfather Mr. Su passed away half a year ago in England. Although it is a pity that Mr. Su could not see you in person, but fortunately we have found you now, and according to Mr. Su's left before his death In the will, you will inherit all the property of Mr. Su." The elite lawyer handed Sophie a document.

The luxury car for pick-up and drop-off, the accompanying bodyguards, the low-key luxurious conference room with connotations, and the rich and handsome lawyer all show that the legacy left by Sophie, a grandfather she has never met, is not a small number.Sophie swallowed her saliva and mustered up the courage to open the file folder. Skip the lengthy asset description, the first thing that caught her eye was the total amount of assets at the bottom of the file.

Because she was not sensitive to numbers, Sophie couldn't tell at a glance whether the long string of zeros above was a nine-digit number or a ten-digit number.

Just when Sophie, who was stunned by the huge amount of assets, wanted to stretch out her fingers and count the zeros, the lawyer spoke again.

"Of course, since Miss Sophie is not of age, this property is temporarily handed over to a financial institution to take care of it for you."

Co-authoring so many properties is a carrot hanging in front of her.Sophie regained her sobriety in an instant. She was still four years away from becoming an adult, and it was still early. With so much money, she could only see if she could spend it. She still had to worry about rent and food expenses as before, and so many assets were far away in the UK. It's not certain whether she, a helpless little flower-growing rabbit, will really get it in four years, so why is she so excited now?

"Of course, in order to ensure your quality of life, Mr. Su Zhe has established a trust fund for you, and you will get 20 pounds of living expenses every month."

The lawyer's words almost made Sophie almost breathless.

20 pounds, equivalent to nearly 200 million RMB in RMB, 200 million RMB in living expenses... Sophie, who originally thought that the ideal salted fish life was just a mirage, only had one sentence in her mind.

It really is my grandpa!

"Of course..." Before Sophie got excited again, the lawyer had something to say again. Sophie, who had experienced another emotional turning point, was very tired. talk.

Can she still ask for this money? If not, she will go home. She is very busy in order to earn money to support herself.

Noticing Sophie's white eyes, the originally serious lawyer couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. After all, he didn't want to whet Sophie's appetite. "Mr. Su Zhe is afraid that even if you are a minor, you will not be able to take good care of yourself even if you have the living expenses, so you specifically require in your will that you must have a guardian to take care of you before you become an adult."

Mr. Lawyer added before Sophie could speak. "Of course, the guardian that Mr. Su Zhe refers to does not refer to Mr. Xu. It must be his former friends or relatives who are related to you by blood, Miss Sophie. You need to live with them."

Hearing Mr. Lawyer's words, Sophie was taken aback.The Mr. Xu he mentioned was a good friend of her father's during his lifetime. Because she didn't want to live in an orphanage or be adopted, so the guardianship was with Uncle Xu, just for a name, and she still lived on her own. , but occasionally contact or meet Uncle Xu.

"Since my parents had an accident when I was five years old, I have no other relatives around me." Sophie, who has lived alone for ten years, smiled wryly.So doesn't this mean that if she wants to get the inheritance, she must live with the person designated by the grandfather she has never met?

"As far as I know, you really don't have any relatives on the patrilineal side who have survived for more than three generations." Mr. Lawyer paused for a while, not knowing what he thought of, with a strange expression on his expression. "But before we found you, we investigated that you still have collateral relatives within three generations of your mother's side."

"And just before I saw you, they all contacted me and expressed their willingness to raise you."

them?Sophie, who noticed this keyword, was a little surprised. It seemed that the person her mother had found was not just one.

Sophie's mother suffered a lot in her childhood. She was lost in the early years and lived on the street. Fortunately, she met her father later. After the two got married, her mother followed her father to China. Although the age difference between the two is nearly 20 years old, They can be regarded as old couples and young wives, but if the accident is not counted, they have actually been living happily.

Sophie's surprise is also because compared to her father who mentioned that her grandfather was a soldier against fascism during World War II, but she lost contact with her father during the war, she never heard her mother talk about any relatives, perhaps when she got lost. She was too young to have any memory of her family, and therefore Sophie never imagined that her mother's original family would find her one day.

Seeing that Sophie fell silent, the lawyer coughed lightly and briefly explained to her the identity of her relatives from her mother.

"Your grandparents have passed away, but your grandmother was married twice and had a daughter with the first husband, which is your aunt, and a son with the second husband, your grandfather. A daughter, the daughter is your mother, and the son is naturally your uncle."

"So it's my aunt and uncle who came to see me?"

"Although it is a pity, your aunt passed away more than 30 years ago. Her son, your cousin, expressed to me his strong desire to take care of you after hearing your news, and your uncle did the same. It was his son who died many years ago and found me."

"So my mother's relatives who came to see me are my two cousins? They want to take care of me? Don't they find it troublesome?" Sophie was a little disappointed when she heard from the lawyer that her grandparents, aunts and uncles had all passed away. At the same time, he also had doubts about the two cousins ​​who wanted to take care of themselves.

Since it is said that the cousin should not be much older than her, it is not bad for a boy in his 30s and [-]s abroad who can take care of himself. Would he be willing to take care of such an oily bottle like her?

"Maybe you misunderstood." The lawyer continued to explain Sophie's doubts. "Because your mother is the old daughter of your grandparents, your aunt and uncle are at least 20 years older than your mother, so your two cousins ​​are now more than 30 years older than you, One already has four sons, while the other is the principal of a school, I think both of them should have the qualifications and ability to raise you."

"Of course, besides your two cousins, you can also choose the guardian chosen by Mr. Su Zhe to live together."

"The guardian chosen by grandpa?"

Just now, Mr. Lawyer has made it clear that there are no relatives alive on his father's side, so Sophie is also a little curious about who the guardian Grandpa will choose.Seeing Sophie's curiosity, the lawyer was silent for two seconds, took out a photo and handed it to Sophie.

"The guardian chosen by Mr. Su Zhe is his comrade-in-arms and the descendants of his comrade-in-arms. You have many choices."

This is a very old and very old black and white photo, which is well protected, and it can be seen that the owner of the photo cherishes it.

In the photo, the five men in military uniforms smile brightly, and their personalities can be vaguely distinguished from the smiles. The three foreign men are either flamboyant, chic, shy, or serious, and the flower-planting man who can’t hide his refined temperament should be It is her grandfather.

Sophie withdrew her hand that wanted to touch the photo, for fear of damaging it, Sophie who was holding the photo had a sore nose and tears welled up in her eyes.

The lawyer didn't bother Sophie, and at this time the men in the other room fell silent and looked at the sad girl on the screen.

The men who have experienced all kinds of storms and waves feel uncomfortable. It is because they have experienced too much pain that they can't see such a young child sad. This makes them feel deeply guilty and self-blame.

"Oh, I can't stand it anymore." One of them broke the silence, stood up first, pushed open the door and walked out. The blond man and the one-armed man next to him looked at each other and didn't stop him, but stood up and followed. The men walked out of the room together.

The man in the wheelchair sighed. "Hank."

The strong man wearing glasses nodded and walked out with his wheelchair.

After they left, there were two men left in the room. In the empty and quiet room, there was a girl with a blank face whose eyes never left the monitor in the middle of the room, and a girl with an impeccable smile on her face all the time. .

"Then, I'll take a step first." The man stood up, buttoned his cuff buttons, smiled and nodded to another man in the room, and then left the room with his black umbrella.

"Alia."

When he was alone in the room, the man let out an inaudible sigh.

In another room, just as Sophie put down the photo and was about to wipe her tears, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and a group of men suddenly poured into the room.

Seeing this, the lawyer stood up. "Gentlemen, I think you still remember our agreement?"

"What agreement? She's crying, do you still want me to sit and watch in another room?"

When the man was talking, Sophie quickly wiped away her tears and looked at the people who broke in suddenly. When she saw the beautiful big caramel-colored eyes of the person who was speaking, Sophie was so surprised that her eyes almost popped out.

Why is this world-famous superhero here?If it was the real person, wouldn't the blond man and the one-armed man next to him be those two?

"It's our fault for breaking the agreement, but please forgive us. We are really worried about Sophie." A man in a wheelchair was pushed in. angry.

Noticing Sophie's gaze, the man blinked at her slightly.I have to say that the man's gentle temperament and handsome appearance are very charming, but his appearance really scared Sophie.

what's the situation?How could the core characters of Avengers and X-Men appear here at the same time?

"Gentlemen, please make room. I'm afraid you are going to scare Miss Sophie." The British gentleman with a black umbrella bypassed the men in front and appeared in front of Sophie. He introduced himself to Sophie in an elegant manner.

"My lord, Mycroft Holmes, holds the last post in the British government. Entrusted by Mr. Su Zhe, I will be one of your future guardians." Mycroft stretched out his hand and said to Sophie. "Miss Sophie, nice to meet you."

After shaking hands with Mycroft in a daze, Sophie hesitated and asked. "Are you the Holmes I thought of?"

"I don't think the surname Holmes is very common." Mycroft pointed to the photos on the table, and seeing that Sophie didn't object, he picked up the photo and put it in Sophie's hands. He pointed to one of the photos and said . "My grandfather and Mr. Su Zhe were once life-and-death comrades in arms. Their friendship lasted for nearly a century until they both left this world. I was also taught by Mr. Su Zhe when I was young. student."

Sophie looked at the photo, and found that Mycroft was indeed somewhat similar to the serious-looking man in the photo, and they all had the rigorous temperament of a British gentleman.

"Sherlock likes you very much. Before I came, Dr. Watson asked me to convey to him that he was looking forward to meeting you."

Sophie was surprised by Mycroft's words at first, and then laughed happily.

Mycroft, who betrayed his brother without hesitation, said he was not lying.After all, being able to make Sherlock say things like 'it's pretty funny' and 'not that stupid' is roughly equivalent to liking in the eyes of Mycroft.

"Hey, there's more than Mr. Holmes in this picture, okay?" Tony was the first to walk in but was robbed of the limelight by the latecomer Mycroft. The silent two men pushed forward. "Compared to the grandson of a comrade-in-arms, the comrade-in-arms himself is more trustworthy."

The eyes moved from the photo to the blond man and the one-armed man, and then from the two of them to the photo. Although time has changed and the temperament of the two of them has undergone almost earth-shaking changes, they can still be compared with the one in the photo. Sophie, who was on the number, was horrified to find that her grandfather turned out to be a former comrade-in-arms of the US team and the Winter Soldier.

In the photo, apart from Sophie's grandfather Su Zhe, the man with a serious expression is Mr. Holmes, the one with a bright smile is Captain Barnes, and the one with a shy face is Captain America. Who is the rest?

Sophie stared at the flamboyant man in the photo for two seconds, then raised her head to meet Tony's same flamboyant smile.

Very good, now you know it's Mr. Howard Stark without asking.

There is a reason for the emergence of the superheroes of the Avengers, so what is the reason for the appearance of the X-Men?Could it be that the elders in the family were comrades-in-arms with her grandfather?

Seeing Sophie's doubts, Charles was about to speak when the door of the room was pushed open again.

"Alia Xavier." The man who strode in said a name. He stood at the outermost edge of the room and locked Sophie through everyone's deep eyes. "This is your mother's original name."

"It's also the name of my mother's sister."

Oh hoo!

Sophie, who was watched by the whole room, swallowed her exclamation with great difficulty.

On this day, Sophie felt that something had changed in her life.

The earth-shattering kind.

The author has something to say: the relationship is a bit complicated, and I’m afraid you won’t understand. Let me explain it specifically. Sophie’s mother is named Alicia Xavier, and she has a half-sister who is also Sophie’s aunt. The professor's father is the eldest brother of Sophie's mother, who is also Sophie's uncle, so Sophie's mother is named Xavier after her father, and is the professor's aunt, and the professor is Sophie's uncle. Aunt Fee's son is Sophie's cousin.

Then I will repeat the difference between cousins ​​and cousins. Cousins ​​and cousins ​​are the children of the father's brothers and sisters, and the children of the father's sisters and mother's brothers and sisters are all cousins.In short, those who have the same surname as myself are cousins, and those who do not have the same surname are cousins ​​(applicable to families with the father's surname, it is not clear if the mother's surname is followed).

Then you can guess the identity of the cousin.
