Volume 1 The Last Garden of Eden 00034 Remnants
The water slowly spilled from the pot and watered it in the vegetable garden, the dust splashed was fine and insignificant, Lin Yan, who was holding the pot, put away her tools and looked at the lush vegetables in the yard, she finally had a little smile.
But in a wheelchair, she couldn't feel anything but her hands and head, but she wanted to pick some vegetables with her own hands so that she could cook dinner for her sister.
Since Lin Yan slowly accepted the fact that Lin Sen had "died", she had become the last backbone of the family, even if it was just a broken body, Lin Yan had never shed tears.
She stretched out her hand as much as she could, touching the green that was close at hand, but there was an insurmountable gap in the short distance.
"Poof", Lin Yan fell down in the yard, her clean face was covered with dust, her hands were clenched, Lin Yan squeezed out an ugly smile, and laughed at herself: "It's really not easy to farm......"
She began to try to get up, and then crawled to pick vegetables, one after the other.
……
At night, the unkempt Lin Xue walked home alone. Her petite body had all kinds of wounds, and although she had done simple treatment, she was still very embarrassed.
After Lin Sen's "death", Lin Xue ignored Lin Yan's obstruction and joined the miners' team, but she was too young and no one would give her a mine cart and a job, but later after Lin Sen's old acquaintance, Lin Xue got a job to help the mine owner go to some narrow passages to place explosives, this job is very dangerous and easy to get injured, but the pay is very high.
Lin Xue repeatedly crawled through the death passage that her father, brother, and sister had crawled through, and did a sprint for survival on the death stage every day.
Then he returns home with the money, and continues the promise that the family once made together, replacing the DNA, getting rid of the identity of being the last descendant of the empire, and entering the dome to start a new life.
Lin Yan, who was cooking, carefully wiped the wound in front of the mirror, she was afraid that Lin Xue would see it, the last time the little girl remembered her brother, it made Lin Xue cry all night, Lin Yan would not make the same mistake again.
"Sister! I'm back! Lin Xue pushed open the fence gate of the yard and threw the tools outside.
"Well, go wash your hands and get ready to eat!"
After washing her hands, Lin Xue came to the kitchen, this kitchen remodeled with the fuselage of the thinking mecha was quite foreign.
"Wow! So much to eat! Lin Xue smiled happily when she saw a table of dishes.
Lin Yan quietly put the repaired violin behind her, and then turned her wheelchair to the table.
"Then eat more, my sister has put a lot of effort into it today!" Lin Yan handed over the chopsticks.
Lin Xue took it and put it in front of the empty seat on the other side.
Lin Yan looked at it wordlessly, she handed over another pair, this time Lin Xue just started to eat, and she ate very deliciously.
The vacant seat is reserved for Lin Sen, Lin Xue said that his brother is not dead, he will always come back, so the seat must always be kept.
"Try this, we grew it in our own garden!" Lin Yan invited her sister to serve food.
But when the dish arrived in front of her, Lin Xue grabbed her sister's hand, and her red and swollen wrist was trembling.
"Sister!" Lin Xue's eyes were red, "We didn't say yes!" Will I pick it when I get home? ”
Lin Yan hurriedly withdrew her hand and said, "No, this is what is left from a few days ago, what is left." ”
When she lied, Lin Yan could never change her blush, and when Lin Xue saw it in her eyes, she snorted again, although the smile was full of tears.
She got up and walked out of the kitchen, brought the medicine box, and applied ointment to her sister.
Lin Xue, who was half-kneeling there, finished all this, pillowed her head on her sister's lap, and murmured: "Sister, the money is almost enough, so don't be willful anymore, okay?" ”
Lin Yan couldn't help laughing, she couldn't help laughing, and her eyes were red.
Stroking her sister's short hair, Lin Yan said in a trembling voice: "It's ......"
……
The next morning, when Lin Yan got up, Lin Xue had already set off, and she was about to cross the garrison wall in time for the patrol train to change the guard.
Last night, Lin Yan still didn't muster up the courage to take out Xiao Ti.
Since Lin Sen was gone, Lin Xue had never touched the violin again, and one day, the girl came.
She brought relief supplies and a sincere invitation, but because of one sentence, Lin Xue's self-esteem was shattered......
"My brother is dead! Dead, you know what! Are you going to die here with your sister too? Do you have to be so willful? Do you really think of yourself as a seven-year-old! Lin Xue? You tell me?! The girl was well-dressed, but she did not dislike the simplicity of the house, and her repeated attempts to persuade her again and again were fruitless, and at last became a helpless anger.
Lin Yan covered her mouth and closed her eyes, she didn't want to listen anymore.
"Go out ......" Lin Xue, who had not spoken, pointed out the door.
The girl stood up, but did not leave, she looked at Lin Xue and said in a deep voice: "What? ”
"I want you out! Get lost! !! Lin Xue erupted in silence, and she picked up the little mention next to her and hit the girl without saying anything.
Such a fair and squeamish girl, it must be very painful to be beaten like this...... Lin Yan wanted to stop it, but watched the violin disconnect.
"What does this home have to do with you!! Why do you say my brother is dead! That's my brother! It's mine! Lin Xue was stopped by the black-clothed bodyguard, but she was still crying and roaring.
The girl clutched her shoulders, her carefully braided hair scattered, and rose silently.
"Let her go." An unquestionable order.
The bodyguards were stunned for a moment, and finally let go of Lin Xue.
"I'm sorry......" the girl left this sentence, along with a business card, and never came again.
The business card was torn up by Lin Xue and thrown in the yard, and then she cut off her long hair and told Lin Yan that she was going to continue what Lin Sen had not done.
But now that the business card has been glued and held in Lin Yan's hand, she knows that the only thing she can do is to bridge this relationship, what her sister doesn't want to abandon, she supports it, but she ...... Learn to kneel.
……
"Ouch, little ancestor, you are here! Yesterday the mine was still saying, if you don't come today, we will close the door! The smiling thin monkey saw Lin Xue walking into the mining area and hurriedly greeted him.
Lin Xue didn't look at him squarely, but said, "What about the thing?" Where's the entrance? ”
"It's all ready for you! You drink saliva first, rest for a while, and we'll get to work right away! "The thin monkey's kung fu is very powerful, and after arranging Lin Xue, he ordered someone to get the blasting device.
After a while, Lin Xue, who was wearing protective clothing, began to climb down a newly opened entrance on the west side of the mining area, holding the blasting device.
This process lasted for more than three hours, not because of how deep it was, but because the passage was too narrow, Lin Xue could not only get up nor turn back, she could only climb to the deepest point first, and then backwards to place the blasting device.
For a girl, such a job can almost kill her.
But Lin Xue persevered, she was exhausted when she exited the cave, and the thin monkey hurriedly ran over to pick her up and send her to the car, and then drove away.
Not long after, in a series of dull detonation sounds, Lin Xue's work was completed.
Two thousand Sain were placed in Lin Xue's hand, and the thin monkey said with a hippie smile: "Count it again, this is half a month's salary, don't I give you less?" ”
The month-long continuous work made Lin Xue feel that her waist was about to break, and she now had a splitting headache and just wanted to go home as soon as possible.
"It's okay, I trusted you." Saying that, Lin Xue walked out and ran back.
The thin monkey was sent to the door, still smiling and saying, "Slow down, or I'll send you?!" ”
Just a kind word, Lin Xue waved her hand and gradually walked away.
When Lin Xue's back disappeared, the thin monkey was surrounded by several people.
"How? Is it time to pay back today? "The fat man is a well-known gambler in the slums, he gambles money with others, but what others can win from him is a DNA replacement license, although the chances are slim, but no matter how much money you take, you can participate, it's just that the odds increase with the number of times.
Thin Monkey is this kind of speculator, he came to the mine not long after he was tired of this kind of work to live by his life, since it is all gambling, why not take a chance, many people have this mentality, he is no exception.
However, the lucky ones are a few people after all, and the thin monkey is not so lucky, he threw all his money into it, and even owes a lot of loan sharks.
"A few masters, the little ones are really out of money! You see, I haven't eaten for a few days, how thin have I become! The thin monkey clenched his fists and begged for mercy, but the fat man at the head gave him a sneer.
"You've been thin for a day or two, what are you pretending to be with me! What about the money, not to mention the money for today's workers? ”
The thin monkey was startled, and then his face immediately turned into a bitter ball, knelt on the ground and said: "A few masters, look at it, I still have to live in this family, you will have a few more days!" Yes? I'll send you the money in a few days! ”
"Fuck your uncle, play a few brothers!" However, these people did not accept him, and after a severe beating, they took the money.
"Only four hundred Sain? Skinny Monkey, I've seen the mine give you a wad of money! The leader put away the money, and the little brother next to him saw that there was no oil and water, and began to spoil the idea.
The thin monkey was not beaten lightly, and he barely got up, trying to hold on to his smile.
"Hehe, the master thinks too highly of me, I'm just the one who is responsible for packing up the tools and pressing the button for this explosion, and the little girl who places the device is Lin Xue, and the money is basically given to her......" The thin monkey suddenly stopped as he spoke, because he looked at the people in front of him with a little wrong.
"Hey! How many masters, are you ...... Don't beat Lin Xue's idea! Count me kowtowing to a few masters, and I'll pay you back even if I borrow it tomorrow! Yes? The thin monkey bowed down again and again, although he was servile in his bones, but he knew how to repay his kindness, Lin Sen saved his life at the beginning, and Lin Xue was also introduced by him, how could he let these people target Lin Xue, but his momentary cheapness sent Lin Xue to a dangerous situation.
"Get out of the way! Do you borrow? Who the wants to lend you this poor sour? What about being stupid? Loosen! If you don't let go, you're welcome! The fat man at the head watched the thin monkey hold his leg and slowly pulled out his gun.
The thin monkey didn't want to let go, but kept begging: "Master, don't beat a little girl's idea!" Yes? Please! Please! ”
"Bang", crisp and casual.
The thin monkey shuddered and slowly fell to the ground.
