Chapter Forty-Eight: A New Life
Again, stand in front of the red oak gate.
The first time he came here, he had come to seek refuge, and now, Leus had come to cooperate.
It's just that as soon as Leus's hand touched the doorknob, someone had already pulled the door open from the inside, and a cute round face suddenly appeared, which surprised Leus.
"Katie, how are you?"
"Of course, come in."
The two looked at each other and smiled, and with a wonderful tacit understanding, walked side by side to the living room, where everyone was chatting now, because they had just had dinner.
He had just walked a few steps when suddenly a small figure rushed into the corridor, and Leus stopped, then squatted down and opened his hands to pick up the enthusiastic little girl.
"She really likes you." Phantom Cat said with a smile on the side.
"Me too." Leus looked at her and said with a pun on her meaning.
Walking to the living room, adults and children were there, and because of the addition of two dozen children, the college was more lively than usual.
Wolverine was lying lazily on the couch, hesitating to light a cigar in his hand, as Storm Girl threw him a warning glance from time to time, and just as Leus appeared to relieve him, he smiled and said, "Hey, Lee, good job." ”
"That's what I'm supposed to do. Also, I'm here to pick up a few kids tonight. "Leus put Yue'er down, he didn't intend to stay long.
"The problem with the house solved? I thought you were going to be here in a few days. Stormgirl gave him a surprised look.
Leus took a bottle of salt soda from the fridge and replied, "Yes, Weiss Manor, in the western suburbs of Washington." ”
"Anna, what's going on with your parents?" Leus looked at the blonde beauty on the other side of the sofa, and also noticed the blazing gaze in the young guys here looking at her, after all, she was also a school flower at Syracuse University, one in a thousand.
"Very well, the professor has found them in the afternoon, and now they are on a plane to the academy." Anna smiled sweetly at him.
"Cheers." Leus raised the bottle and smiled at her, happy for her.
Until now, the debt of favor has been paid off, and Li Wusi does not plan to get involved in this matter anymore, he has too many resources in his hands that can be converted into strength, but it takes time, and he doesn't want to make trouble.
"So, shall we leave in a moment?" Katie asked Leus suddenly.
"We?"
Li Wusi was stunned for a moment, then remembered the agreement with the professor, nodded and said, "Yes, I always like to do what I need to do." ”
"I like your character, but." The Burning Man raised his eyebrows, looked at the two curiously, and asked, "Katie, are you leaving the academy?" ”
"Yes, the professor asked me to help Lee." The phantom cat whispered, a little embarrassed.
"What!"
Iceman Bobby screamed in surprise, he glared at the black-haired boy, and said very unpleasantly, "Why? This guy is just doing chores for Professor Hank, why should he let the Phantom Cat leave! ”
But Leus didn't want to pay attention to him, this guy was a young man with a pure brain, and from a certain scene in his memory, the fire man used the flame to create a spark in order to please the little mischief, but the iceman used his ability to freeze the spark into an ice sculpture.
Deliberately hitting others, and then using it to please other girls, Leus is not ashamed of such behavior and such a person, it can be said that before he came into this world, he hates this guy.
"Maybe you don't want to, maybe you can go up and talk to the professor."
Leus took Yue'er's little hand, looked at the other four children, and smiled, "Claire, and you, we should leave." ”
I have to say that the words of the Iceman Babi made the atmosphere of this meeting a little bad.
"Bobby, you've got to learn to be mature."
Storm Girl looked at the back of them leaving, and sighed, Sriart locked herself in her room all day because of Jean's death, and Wolverine didn't care about teaching children, usually many things were pressed on her, she was too tired.
"Babi, maybe Stormgirl is right." Little Naughty also looked at her boyfriend worriedly, but there was an indescribable feeling of disgust in her heart, because of the comparison, the peers in the academy were overshadowed by Leus.
Inexplicably, she reached out and touched her lips, remembering the unintentional kiss they met for the first time, and the two of them touched hands for more than ten minutes that night, and her boyfriend Iceman...... But I couldn't even kiss her.
"I'm fine, don't worry about you!" Bingren angrily shook off her hand and went upstairs in a huff.
The burning man looked at this qiē happily, but he was still a little disappointed, and he really wished that he would leave the academy soon and join Leus's team, which would definitely be more interesting than the boring days of the academy.
On the other side, by the time Leus returned to Vis Manor with the children, it was nearly early in the morning.
Taris had already prepared the room, and there were 64 spacious rooms in the manor, which they could choose from, but Lius was the owner of the house, so he naturally had his own small building.
This night, Li Wusi rarely did not practice, but returned to the primitive way of resting, and slept naturally and normally.
It wasn't until the first rays of the morning sun shined through the window and on his face that he woke up and was refreshed.
"It's a good night, it's a new day, and there's still a lot to do."
After freshening up, Leus and the group enjoyed a delicious breakfast in the restaurant, where the locals did as they could, with warm milk and fruit sandwiches and vegetable salad.
Katie and her five children were very happy with the breakfast, and Leus smiled and explained to them that Weiss Manor has its own large vegetable patch, orchards and orchards, farms, and fishing grounds, and almost all the ingredients are self-sufficient and green.
During the break after dinner, Leus asked Simon about his progress, he had already bought a lot of equipment yesterday, and he was about to start cleaning the basement and setting up the equipment today. If nothing else, Simon will need a few more days to complete the design drawings of the phantom generator, and then go to the heavy military factory to produce some high-precision raw materials, and then he can officially start assembly.
After Simon left, Leus clapped his hands at everyone and said, "Children, today we are going to the river to play, do you want to go?" ”
"Great!"
"Let's go!"
"What a nice man, sir."
Children cheered, what could make them happier than playing?
For some reason, Leus didn't plan to drive, but set off with Katie with a big backpack and five children.
But as soon as he walked for a while, Leus found that Yue'er had grabbed the corner of his clothes and looked at him with pity.
"Sir, I can't walk."
"Okay."
Leus squatted down and touched her little head, picked her up, and said with a smile: "Claire, you are too light, you must be a picky eater." ”
"No, I eat a lot of breakfast." Yue'er pouted, she didn't know why, she obviously ate half as much as children of the same age.
Leus felt a little strange, but he didn't pay attention to it, just pinched her small nose curiously, and asked, "Why do you keep calling me sir?" ”
"I think that's pretty cool!" Yue'er blinked her pale golden eyes and said mischievously, "Its Chinese meaning is also very cool." ”
At this moment, William also interjected: "Sir, because you are only two years older than me, this title shows respect, you saved us, we think this is the most suitable title." ”
Leus shrugged his shoulders helplessly and said, "If you like it, it's fine." Look, we're almost there. ”
There is a mountain range behind the Vis Manor, and at the foot of the mountain there is a large river with a width of more than ten meters, which separates the grassland on the side of the road from the woods at the foot of the mountain.
