046 Retribution

Jones resolutely rejected Li Mu, even if there was no choice, Jones would rather give up the right to take in the child than let Li Mu live in his own home. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Rong Hong didn't feel depressed about Jones's insistence, anyway, there are still many families to choose from, and there is no need to hang himself on Jones's crooked neck tree.

In the next few days, Rong Hong called a number of families who had previously expressed their willingness to take in the young children, hoping to find a place for Li Mu to live.

To Yung's surprise, almost every family welcomed the presence of young children in their homes, but when they learned that the object was Li Mu, they all refused.

It is also understandable that when the newspaper was hyping up Li Mu's killing of Jesse James, it also set up an image of Li Mu who killed people without blinking, such a person, even if he is a hero, I am afraid it will affect people's worries.

From the sixteenth to the nineteenth, for three full days, Rong Hong did not find a foothold for Li Mu, which made Rong Hong have a headache.

At three o'clock in the afternoon of September 19, Li Mu and his train arrived at Springfield Railway Station on time.

Before getting out of the car, Old Man Chen opened the box again, took out the "official uniform" prepared for the children to change into, and appeared in front of the Springfield people again with a neat and uniform image.

Of course, just like when he went ashore in San Francisco, the little fat man didn't change, and Li Mu didn't change either, and this time Li Mu didn't let Yan Shun replace him, and when he arrived in Springfield, Li Mu no longer needed to disguise.

Unlike the three or five cabin train stations along the way, Springfield, as the largest industrial manufacturing center and military industrial center in the United States, has a beautiful and grand train station, this train station has six platforms, spacious and bright waiting rooms, and there are restaurants, lounges, hotels and other outbuildings, which is second to none in the United States in this era.

At this point, Li Mu and Yan's family were temporarily separated, and the Yan family acted with the officials of the Overseas Migrant Workers' Bureau, while Li Mu was taken to the lobby of the railway station hotel with the other children.

When Li Mu and the others arrived at the lobby of the hotel, there were already many women waiting in the hall, and the women's clothes were different, and the common feature was that they were very new, and they looked like they had just been ordered. When they saw the children, the burning heat in the women's eyes was like seeing an angel, and almost all the children felt fear.

Of course, Li Mu was not afraid, in fact, most of the women's eyes were focused on Li Mu.

It's really Li Mu a bit maverick, before getting out of the car, Li Mu didn't change his clothes, he was still dressed like a cowboy, and there was a pistol on his waist, which almost everyone determined Li Mu's identity for the first time.

That's right, this is the Rim who shot and killed Jesse James!

Standing in Li Mu's position, he could even hear the whispers of those women.

"I heard this is a murderous guy who doesn't blink—"

"yes, I don't want a child like that in my family—"

"As a little hero, I think I'll praise him, but there's no way I'm going to accept having such a child in my house—"

"God, look at his eyes, it's horrible—"

In fact, Li Mu's eyes are really not so fierce, Li Mu's eyes are only indifferent now, and the expression on his face is so cold that he can scrape off a layer of frost, Li Mu is expressing his resistance with indifference: Don't choose me, I know you don't like me, it's okay, I don't like you anyway-

Li Muren has been on the train for the past few days, and he doesn't know how famous he is in the United States, and he doesn't know the series of consequences caused by the killing of Jesse James, so Li Mu still thinks that he will also go to a certain family like other young children, and he doesn't know that he is now facing a "homeless" situation.

Outside the hall, the Young Children Overseas Business Bureau was supervising Old Man Chen and Deputy Superintendent Rong Hong were discussing Li Mu's affairs.

When he heard the fact that no family was willing to take Li Mu in, Old Man Chen was not surprised at all.

"Li Mu's son is talented and intelligent, good at chivalry, but he acts obediently, has good money, and does not obey discipline, if he entrusts it to ordinary people, I am afraid that it will cause some trouble, so it is better for us to discipline it personally." Old man Chen put forward an opinion that was very much in line with Li Mu's heart.

Li Mu had long expressed to Old Man Chen that he did not want to live in an American family, but Old Man Chen rejected Li Mu on the grounds that "the regulations are difficult to change".

However, Li Mu's performance on the train left a deep impression on Old Man Chen, especially the breakfast that Li Mu ordered Old Man Yan to send to Old Man Chen on the first morning, which made Old Man Chen feel very useful.

This is the breakfast that the prince of the county has to spend money to buy, but Li Mu ordered someone to send it over without making a sound, which fully satisfied Old Man Chen's proud self-esteem.

and then to organize Chinese and foreigners to grab food, as well as to stand up in the face of car bandits, Old Man Chen's view of Li Mu has changed greatly, although it is still a bit "obedient" and "disobedient", but it is no longer hopeless, so Old Man Chen will think of keeping Li Mu by his side to educate him personally, which on the one hand meets Li Mu's requirements, and on the other hand, it is to cultivate talents for "my Qing Dynasty", and his intentions can not be described as bad and bitter.

"I'm afraid this is not in accordance with the rules, since the imperial court has decided to place all the young children in the Americans' homes, I think we should think in the long run, these days can let Li Mu's son temporarily live in the hotel, and when a suitable family is found, it is not too late to resettle." Rong Hong still didn't understand what Li Mu was, and the plan he proposed was also a compromise.

"It's good!" Old man Chen didn't insist, and when Rong Hong realized that Li Mu was different, Old Man Chen was not afraid that Rong Hong would not agree to his arrangement.

In the hall, an official from the Overseas Migrant Workers Bureau is announcing the resettlement list.

"Cai Shaoji, you live in Professor Batra's house in Connecticut-"

"Tan Yaoxun, you live at Mrs. Carrington's house in Hartford—"

"He Tingliang, you live in-"

As the names were announced, each lady was pleasantly surprised to hug the children assigned to her family and kiss them passionately.

This action makes many children blush, because it may be the first kiss they have ever gotten.

When all the lists were announced, Li Mu was the only one left who had not been mentioned, so on one side of the hall there was a scene similar to a reunion of flesh and blood, and on the other side of the hall, only Li Mu stayed there alone.

"Hahahaha-you guy has finally suffered retribution, no one wants it now-" Such an arrogant voice must belong to the little fat man.

This is indeed a very embarrassing situation, except for the little fat man, the other people in the room looked at Li Mu with pity, which made Li Mu feel very bad, and he felt abandoned by the whole world.

But Li Mu is not an ordinary person after all, just when Li Mu wanted to ridicule him, the door of the hall was suddenly pushed open, and then a strong man wearing a cowboy hat, a denim suit, a pistol hanging from his waist, and a police badge on his chest pushed the door in.

It's an interesting coincidence, if this guy is smaller, then he and Li Mu are quite like brothers.
