"Mom!" The white lotus with a red face grabbed a ball of snow, "You can come with it too." ”

Zhao Fen watched Bai Lian and Bai Hong building snowmen, watching them from the side.

Feathery snowflakes kept drifting in the sky, falling over the city and on the ground outside the city. Whether it's inside or outside the city, you can see people playing in the snow everywhere.

"Mom! You also come to ...... together" Bai Lian inhaled and ran in her direction, leaving a shallow and deep footprint behind her, "You come and play with us......"

Boom boom! There was an avalanche.

Zhao Fen saw the direction her daughter was running from, and the collapsed snow-capped mountains were rolling into the sky.

"Don't ......"

Zhao Fen shouted and raised his head.

It turned out to be a dream.

Zhao Fen looked at the bed, and Bai Lian was looking at her cautiously. Zhao Fen got up from the seat and wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.

Call! A gust of wind blew in through the open window. Zhao Fen couldn't help but shudder. She looked out the window, it was already dark outside, and the curtains were blown up by the wind.

"Lian'er! You're awake. Zhao Fen closed the window and said, "It's good to wake up." ”

Bai Lian on the bed~ looked at Zhao Fen blankly, she felt that the person in front of her was a stranger, she didn't know who it was, and unconsciously tightened the quilt. Why is she called "Lian'er"? She looked at Zhao Fen who was closing the window again.

Zhao Fen saw Bai Lian's restraint, and she was still a little cowardly. Zhao Fen's heart instantly cooled a little, what happened to her daughter for more than two years, she was so afraid of people.

"Lian'er!" Zhao Fen closed the window and sat on the edge of the bed, wanting to pull Bai Lian's hand, but the latter retracted, "Where have you been?" What made you like this? Why not speak? ”

Zhao Fen spoke, tears falling from the corners of her eyes.

Bai Lian looked at the woman in front of her who called herself "Lian'er", and suddenly understood in her heart that she regarded herself as her daughter. She wanted to open her mouth, to tell her that she wasn't her daughter.

"That ......" she wanted to say it, but seeing Zhao Fen shedding a string of tears, she couldn't speak, "That ......"

"What's wrong with you?" Zhao Fen took her hand, "Your voice has changed, who made you ...... like this?"

Giggles!

The sound of pushing open the door interrupted Zhao Fen's speech. With tears on her face, she turned her head and saw Bai Hong walk in.

"Husband! Lian'er woke up. Zhao Fen spoke, wiping away her tears, "She seems to have changed ......"

White-red motioned for her to stop talking.

"Let's go out first." Bai Hong patted Zhao Fen on the shoulder, "About our daughter." ”

"That's it. The daughters are awake. ”

"It's important."

Zhao Fen looked at Bai Lian's serious face, and did not hold back any longer.

"Lian'er!" Zhao Fen turned around and glanced at the frightened Bai Lian, "I'll go out with your father for a while, you can lie down well." ”

Zhao Fen was afraid that she would suddenly disappear again, and when she walked out, she kept turning her head to look at her frightened on the bed~ until the door closed behind her.

"Look at this report." After the door closed, Bai Hong handed her an appraisal report, "This is the second one, and the results will not be wrong." ”

Zhao Fen flipped through the pages, and when she went to the last page, she saw the results: the matching rate with White Lotus was 0%; 100% mismatch rate.

Zhao Fen held the report tightly and looked at the test results with blank eyes.

"In the morning, I got my first rapid test of DNA, and I thought there was an error. Asking the doctor to do a more in-depth genetic match, this report will not be wrong. The results of both reports are consistent. ”

"But ......"

"She does look too much like our daughter, and if she doesn't get tested, I think she's our daughter."

"This ......"

Zhao Fen couldn't speak, the person lying inside really looked too much like a white lotus.

"However, let's find out first, and there may be other information." "Maybe she knows?" ”

White-red was tempted to say that maybe someone behind it had made an identical robot to gain their trust. Whether it's a robot or not, you have to monitor.

"How do you find out?" Zhao Fen's heart is really a roller coaster, with ups and downs.

"Robots can also have genes, DNA, and so on." Bai Hong said, "We will send it to the robot testing center to verify it again." ”

"Not yet." Zhao Fen said, "I have been watching her for a day, she is not a robot." Never before in the world has anyone ever made such a life-like robot. ”

"Maybe." Bai Hong hesitated for a moment, "This technological thing is changing with each passing day, and it is possible that someone has really made a robot that is no different from a human." ”

Zhao Fen remembered the restrained expression of "White Lotus" just now, which was not an emotion that a robot could express.

"Don't do it yet." Zhao Fen said resolutely, "I'll ask her first, and I'll ask for her opinion." ”

"Okay!" Bai Hong said, "Be careful. ”

"I will."

Bai Hong didn't follow Zhao Fen into the room, he went to the living room, drank tea, and sat and waited for Zhao Fen's news.

Zhao Fen pushed the door and entered the room and saw that "White Lotus" was about to get out of bed.

"You'd better lie down." Zhao Fen didn't know what the expression on her face was, "I want to ask you something." ”

The girl heard her tone change, and her heart became nervous. Very clumsily sat back on the bed~ and looked at the ground.

"Hmm." The girl snorted, in response to Zhao Fen's words.

Zhao Fen took a glass of water, sat down, and motioned for the girl to lie back on the bed~. The girl obediently lay back on the bed, her hands clumped incessantly.

"Do you know a woman named White Lotus?"

Zhao Fen stared at her face. The girl's face made a memory expression, and she searched through her memories, and there was no woman named Bai Lian who she knew.

Zhao Fen waited for a minute before the girl shook her head timidly.

"Nope." Her voice was indeed not the richness of the White Lotus, but the fine tone.

"Where are you from?"

"A city by the sea." The girl's head was hooked, and her hands were pulling on the quilt, "It seems to be called Jiangzhou, but I'm not sure that there was a war there." ”

"When did it happen?"

"Just the other day." The girl tried to remember the time, but couldn't remember, "I can't remember the specifics." ”

Zhao Fen recalled the place where the war took place, as if there was none, except that the regime in Jiangzhou was overthrown.

"What does the place you live like like?"

"I've been living in a wall, serving a man, and there are more than fifty women like me."

Hearing this, Zhao Fen remembered the relevant report, saying that after the restoration of "slavery" in this world, some rich people built their own prostitution~ nests, specially bought young and beautiful girls, and locked them up for their own fun.

"I haven't been out of the wall." The girl glanced up at Zhao Fen, then lowered her head again, "I don't know what the city looks like?" ”

"Haven't heard of the city you live in?"

"Sometimes the owner will show us the news, as if it is called Jiangzhou, and others say the same, but we don't know if it's true."

"What's your master's name?"

"I don't know."

"What's your name?"

"Thorns."

Zhao Fen raised the water cup and took a sip.

"Did your parents give the name Thorn?"

"I don't know, I haven't met my parents." The girl shed a few tears, "I heard the older people in it say that I was born of a slave and was born a slave. The name was given to me by the owner. ”

No wonder she behaves responsibly, but where is her mark? Zhao Fen didn't see it. Normally, the mark of a slave is visible to others, and there is no on the slave's face, neck, or hands.

"How do you prove you're a slave?" Zhao Fen wanted to confirm further.

The girl did not answer, but pulled back her clothes, revealing her chest.

Zhao Fen was a little uncomfortable with the girl making such an action. However, as a slave, she will always be obedient when she sees normal people, and even if she resists in her heart, she will not show it in her actions.

Zhao Fen opened her eyes and saw that there was a picture of a thorn tree between the girl's double ~ peaks. This may be where her name comes from.

"You pull on your clothes." Zhao Fen felt that it was a little unsightly to let her be open, "How did you escape?" ”

"We live by the sea, and it just so happens that there was a shootout in the place where we live. The owner seemed frightened and fled. More than 50 of us have lost our masters, and we don't know what to do. Finally, they are the oldest, they used to be normal people, and they have lived outside. They said that now is the opportunity, the master has escaped, and we can leave. They told our juniors that there was a place called the White Market that took in slaves. During the day we hid inside, not wanting to be seen. After dark. The old men took us on a boat and drove all the way to the depths of the sea. On the way, we encountered a tsunami. I was swept up in the storm and didn't know it later. ”

It took the woman half an hour to say this. During this time, Zhao Fen did not interrupt her speech, but drank water and listened to her patiently.

In this way, this girl is lucky, and everyone else is probably buried in the sea.

"I see." Zhao Fen stood up, "This is the White Market, welcome to you." ”

"Really?" Thorn's eyes widened and he straightened up sharply, the restrained girl was not there.

What a wonderful thing freedom is. Zhao Fen sighed in her heart. Freedom restores self-confidence.

"You have a good rest." Zhao Fen gave her a warm smile, "This is the City of Freedom, you can stay here." ”

"Thank you!" Thorn spoke, tears flowed down her eyes, she didn't need to live under the whip.

Zhao Fen comforted her and walked out of the ward. I saw Bai Hong sitting in the living room, waiting for him.

"Husband! There is no need to do a test. Zhao Fen said in a heavy tone, "Her name is Thorn, a slave. ”

"I can't see it from the outside." Bai Hong looked at Zhao Fen, "Really?" ”

Zhao Fen said all the words that Thorn had said.

"So, she was the only one who escaped?" Bai Hong said, "More than 50 people died in the sea. ”

"Yes!" Zhao Fen's mood was also a little depressed, "There is a shortage of people in the White Market, and it is impossible for us to rob people, so we can only accept slaves who automatically step into the jurisdiction of the White Market." The current fertility rate is still very low. ”

Bai Hong also has a headache, why other cities have joined forces to make this rule.
