Chapter 42: Rebecca's Origins

"Trust me." Cheng Bin looked at Rebecca and said, "I want to hear the truth, it's important to you." ”

Although the appearance of him crouching on the ground with his lunch box in his hand seemed a little funny, his tone was enough to make Rebecca realize that it was not a joke.

She opened her mouth a little helplessly and asked Cheng Bin, "Is something happening?" ”

Cheng Bin took a deep look at her and acquiesced in this guess.

It turns out that the lamps of these aristocratic ladies are really not fuel-efficient, at least in terms of their ability to seize opportunities. After Isabel was rescued by Cheng Bin, she was able to climb up and ask him to send her to Maple Leaf Town, and after Rebecca was rescued by him, she realized that she was safe with her.

To be honest, if it were Cheng Bin, even if he was a man, he might not be able to make up his mind to entrust himself to others so quickly.

In fact, this time Rebecca guessed correctly again, something did happen that made Cheng Bin change his previous plan, the most important of which was that he found that the person who attacked the Lancastos mercenaries came from the same direction as himself.

In the wasteland, the direction is very important, on the one hand, because there are not many markers on the wasteland, and it is difficult to judge the location. On the other hand, it is also because there are no roads in the wasteland, or because the terrain is not very undulating, so there are roads everywhere, and in the wasteland, everyone likes to cut straight lines.

When Cheng Bin left Maple Town last night, he walked in the direction of Komsomolsk, which was different from going to Oak Town, with an angle of about forty-five degrees, so after killing the pursuers, he could directly cross the wasteland and walk in a straight line to the meeting point that the captives said, instead of following the mercenaries along the road and chasing after the mercenaries.

The same was apparently true of those who attacked the mercenary team, who chased them from the wasteland and then attacked.

Cheng Bin failed to spot the anti-tank in time, not because it was disturbed by the light in the sky as he thought, but because the missile's flight path was parallel to his line of sight at the beginning, and at this angle, the missile's trail was almost stationary in his field of vision, and of course it was difficult to detect.

These things may seem useless to ordinary people, but in Cheng Bin's eyes, this actually means one thing, that is, there is a high probability that the mercenaries who are chasing and killing are from Maple Leaf Town, not the Salt Lake City soldiers who Cheng Bin thought were shaken by Glova at the beginning.

That's why he told Rebecca at the beginning of the attack that he was from her family, but when he left, he didn't say anything about sending her back.

He suspected that those people were not from the Djugashvili family, after all, if there was such a team around Glova, they could not sit idly by and watch the Glova family be cleaned up so badly.

Considering that the other party has a high-tech weapon such as an anti-tank missile in his hand, it is absolutely impossible to be a revenant, and Cheng Bin can't help but worry that there are other dangers hidden under the calm on the surface of Maple Leaf Town.

In fact, in the face of such a complex and uncertain situation, the best thing to do is to stay away, and danger usually does not chase people. That's why Cheng Bin cares about Rebecca, he at least has to know that after he kidnaps Rebecca, will there be a bunch of brave people behind his buttocks, and he will be chopped off as an evil dragon.

Although Rebecca is smart, she lacks experience after all, so she can't figure out why Cheng Bin suddenly became interested in her previous life. She thought for a moment and spoke tamely about her past.

Rebecca's life is very simple to say, basically as stable and boring as a noble girl of this age.

Her father, Mr. Djugashvili Sr., was a man who was very beautiful, specifically, he had many wives around him.

From an ethical point of view, even if we enter a new era, since the inheritance of prehistoric civilization has not been broken, the basic social form will be inherited, and even the nobles of the royal capital must abide by the basic principles and maintain monogamy on the surface.

But after the war between Komsomolsk and Salt Lake City, the old Dzhugashvili's ambition to dominate the wasteland was frustrated, and he turned around and began to make a fortune in Salt Lake City, where the Dzhugashvili family was completely the dominant one, and the old Dzhugashvili wanted to do whatever he wanted, including but not limited to marrying many wives.

Rebecca's mother was one of Lao Zhu's many wives, and she used to be his favorite one.

Unfortunately, Rebecca's mother fell ill and died when she was seven years old. Although because of her, Lao Zhu is much better to Rebecca than the other children - at least he knows Rebecca's name, so Rebecca is not short of food and clothing. But obviously, without her mother's support, her status in the family is not much better, and all she can do is not worry about food and clothing, in the best case, because she is beautiful enough and very smart, it is likely that Lao Zhu will use which of her capable subordinates to marry into a local power in Salt Lake City.

Glova's background is similar to Rebecca's, but Glova, who is six years older than Rebecca, does not have such an attractive mother, so he has not been valued since he was a child, and as one of the many children of the old Zhu family, he even had to work to support himself and his mother at a very young age.

At that time, Rebecca's mother was still there, I don't know why, she took good care of Glova and often helped him, and later seized the rare opportunity to let Lao Zhu send Glova to study in SOD.

Glova lived up to Rebecca's mother's upbringing, and with his talent and status as a son of the Zhu family, he quickly made his way through the SOD company and became one of the only two commercial consuls in the wasteland.

But when he wanted to go back and repay the aunt who had helped him, he found that his benefactor had died.

It is precisely because of the sense of regret to his benefactor that Glova will take the opportunity of serving as the consul of Maple Town to bring Rebecca out of Salt Lake City, originally he hoped that Rebecca could have a relationship with Emily, you must know that the Edwards family does not have many stumbling children, this generation of head of the family Alec only has two daughters and one son, even if Emily did not marry into the Constantine family, her status in Komsomolsk is by no means comparable to Rebecca. What's more, she is still the titular young lady of the Konstantin family, and if she can get in touch with Emily, Xiaoli's status in the Djugashvili family will immediately be different from before.

Just a few days ago, Gloix told Rebecca that Emily's sister, Isabelle, the little princess of Komsomolsk, was likely to come to Maple Leaf, and that Gloix hoped to create an opportunity for Rebecca and Isabel to befriend, and if possible, Gloix hoped that his sister would help him marry Isabel, in which case, he might even have the ability to change the distribution of power in the wasteland.

It's a pity that Xiao Ge's plan fell through, Xiao Yi was robbed halfway, and Xiao Li certainly didn't have a chance to meet the legendary little princess of Komsomolsk, but soon ushered in the attack of the mercenaries of Oak Town, and then she ended up here.
