Chapter 166: Group Portrait of Peace (Part II)
In the end, Lei Chan got a big rough key from Morgan's hand at a price of 3,000 credits. At the same time, he also saw what the credit bank was like in this era.
The three sisters and siblings couldn't understand why Lei Chan would spend so many credits to buy a key. You know, 3,000 credits is enough for their family to live for about two years, and if they are a little more frugal, they can even use it for three more months.
I have to say that although the Morgan vault has declined, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and it is not inferior to any large credit bank in terms of scale. Taking the key with the king-size 1 printed on it, Lei Chan and the three children followed Morgan slowly through the countless large electronic safes.
After walking for about three minutes, I finally came to the deepest part of the vault, which was a large safe that was several levels larger than the others. The largest 1-word logo on it already explains the status of this safe. Morgan watched with some regret as several staff members moved the contents of the safe to the No. 2 box next to him one by one, and then said to Lei Chan: "The No. 1 safe has always been the private property of the Morgan family, and it is also the only property I can control now. Three thousand credits used to be unaffordable for Safe 1, but now... It's yours! ”
After saying that, Morgan turned and left, looking at the back and even a little gloomy. It wasn't until the No. 1 safe was completely emptied and the staff walked away, leaving only an old man and staff member, that Lei Chan pulled the three children and walked over. Of course, the safe is nothing.
Until now, the three of them still didn't know why Lei Chan wanted to buy such a safe that had nothing.
I saw Lei Chan snatch Shanny's hand with a smile and put the king-size key in her palm: "This box is yours!" ”
Predictably, all three of them looked confused.
Shanni looked up at Lei Chan with some confusion and asked, "Why?" ”
Lei Chan clenched Sunny's hand, then touched her head and said, "Keeping things in a safe will never be the safest. So it's just an ordinary box, just use it to put what you want! It's just a box! ”
Well, it's a bit of a stretch to buy a vault safe for 3,000 credits and call it 'just a normal chest'. At least in the impression of the old man and staff on the side, Lei Chan is a second fool who wears ragged clothes and pretends to be X in the winter.
After all this, Sanny had the first safe in her life, and she looked at the empty box with some trepidation but excitement, and for a moment she didn't know what she should put in it.
Lei Chan looked at Shanni, who was a little puzzled, and continued to gently touch her head and said, "Let's go, there will be a long time in the future, one day you will know what to put in it, let's go home first." ”
Indeed, when it was time to leave, the small town of Hercules, although large, could not accommodate many functional buildings. In fact, the vast majority of secret vaults with higher credit levels are not in small towns, but in some other places. So Lei Chan and the three children are not in the small town of Hercules now, but somewhere outside the town.
The way to leave is very simple, find someone outside and ask them to send you away, but you can only sit in a dark car and see nothing the whole time. In other words, this level of service is also very high.

Papa John's home
Putting the last piece of metal into the box, Daddy John took the towel handed by Kidd and wiped his face, looked at his son next to him and said, "Let's look for any other jobs first, I can help you ask about being a soldier, but for the time being, use it as a last resort." I promised your mother that I would see your four children grow up safely. ”
After saying that, he didn't want to look at his son's disappointed face, and walked towards the house a little gloomy.
"Father!" Kidd's voice stopped Daddy John, who wanted to go back to the house: "Sometimes I really envy Gretel, he can do what he wants, and I... No choice! ”
As he said this, Kidd watched his father Xiao Suo's body tremble, and slowly turned to look at himself with a serious face. So he had that sunny smile on his face again, as if he was back in school, facing everyone: "So, if I could change my name one day, I would definitely change my name to Gretel, not Kidd." I don't regret being your son, though, and proud to let me go! ”
Daddy John took a serious look at Kidd who was standing in place, sighed deeply, and walked towards the house again, until the moment he closed the door of the house, he said slowly: "I'll help you inquire!" ”
Kidd was left standing in place, the sunny smile on his face slowly fading...
...
The sun slowly set, the last trace of heat between the heavens and the earth slowly lost, and a little snowflake slowly fell in the sky. After the three of them came out of the building of the Morgan Credit Bank, they walked in the direction of home, but after Lei Chan spent a lot of money to buy a box, the three children stood a little confused and didn't know what to do.
It wasn't until his shoulders were covered with a little snow white that Lei Chan said to the three children who were still confused: "Let's go, it's time to go home, but we need to buy something!" ”
"What?" Still a little confused, Sunny looked up and asked with a blank face.
...
Putting the last of the potatoes and hard bread on the table, Daddy John looked up at the clock, it was almost half past seven, but the three children were still nowhere to be seen. In previous years, DiMillie and Gretel always didn't come back from their friends' house, and Sunny... It should be with Lei Chan.
As soon as he thought of Lei Chan, Daddy John's heart was unhappy again. But no matter how uncomfortable he felt in his heart, life still had to pass, and he said to Kidd, who was standing aside: "They shouldn't come back, let's eat first!" ”
Kidd looked at the other three empty seats at the table with some regret, nodded honestly and sat down, but at this moment there was the sound of the door opening, and then the voices of Dimili and Gretel sounded, which immediately added a bit of popularity to the empty room.
Daddy John and Kidd looked at each other in amazement, and they both saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes. They all stood up and walked out of the restaurant to look at the door.
The two children at the door were standing with happy faces carrying large and small shopping bags, and the young man standing outside the door could be seen behind the two. I saw this black-haired young man carrying a small pine tree in one hand and a one-eyed girl in the other, looking at the two men standing in the room with a smile on his face.
yes, how can Christmas be without a Christmas tree?
