Chapter 157: Former Teammates' Families
"Like, really like, are you a relative of Levi the Watcher? Brother? Or a nephew? Sister Fran checked the picture for a moment and then asked Levi.
"Hmm...... It's a relative......" Levi echoed in embarrassment.
"That's a coincidence, so I almost became your aunt." The old nun picked up Levi's picture as if she had fallen into some kind of memory.
Levi: "??? ”
At this moment, Levi was confused, he was sure that he definitely didn't know this girl, and he had been on the Yorktown all the time in the previous world, and he didn't have a chance to meet any girl.
Wait a minute......
Levi suddenly thought of something, the daughter of Captain Jimmy Thatch, the cheerleader of that university......
Looking at the old nun again, Levi couldn't connect the person in front of him with the beautiful girl in the tights and hot pants.
Again, he realized that it was 1973, more than thirty years had passed, and the once blonde, blue-eyed, white-legged cheerleader had now become an old nun with cloudy eyes, and her body was also covered with wrinkles.
"If you miss the most important person back then, maybe if you miss it, you won't be able to cross paths for the rest of your life." The old nun put the picture on it and clipped it, and sighed, "I'll go and get the old fellow's notepad." ”
Sister Fran left, seemingly relieved by Levi, and went straight to the attic.
Levi stood in the hall, looking at Sister Fran's slightly awkward back and the dozen or so photographs on the wall. The pendulum made a sound, like the sound of time. And this time is like a piece of withered yellow and rotten leaves, and time has become a dust in front of him.
Really, things are not people.
Later, Levi saw the stack of notepads, and found the records of Xiaofu, Ocelot, and Sam.
In the last copy, Levi's pension was about 100,000 dollars, and all of this money was given to his teammates' families according to Levi's ideas.
After receiving this information, Levi thanked him and left the place, and began to search for his teammates' families one after another.
Xiaofu is a mixed race, and his mother is a dark race, pulling him and his younger brother to grow up. Xiaofu originally only studied in a community primary school, but he learned to fly various agricultural tools and even learned to fly agricultural planes without a teacher. He was pulled up when he was a pilot, and after a short training he became a bomber pilot on the Yorktown.
Xiaofu's mother died very young, and all the pension was given to his younger brother. But in Levi's inquiry, Xiaofu's younger brother was addicted to fans and gambling. This pension, which was enough to live for a lifetime in this era, was squandered by him in just a few years, and then he was approached by gang members and disappeared. I think I'm dead.
And the family of the ocelot surprised Levi, the ocelot was trained by the military academy, and he did not brag, his girlfriend was indeed the daughter of a parliamentarian. And his former girlfriend has become a senator in the state of Twist 30 years later.
His parents also died young, and the pension and honor were all given to his girlfriend. And this seems to have become a political bargaining chip for his father-in-law's family, and because of the ocelot's political achievements and her eloquence that is very good at political speeches, his girlfriend can get the sympathy of the bald eagle. Levi watched her speech, and when he talked about his relationship with the leopard cat, he burst into tears, and even went to every rally with a photo of the leopard cat, as if he wanted to write the "heroic relic" on his face.
But in Levi's follow-up investigation, she raised several young men outside, and even a few singers and stars. Perhaps the ocelot is just a political bargaining chip for her.
In the end, Sam's family, Sam had a total of three sons, and his second son died in Zhengang, so he chose to die with the Axis aircraft carriers. During Captain Thatch's investigation, Sam's wife was about 6 months pregnant at the time of the Battle of AF Island, but he never saw the birth of his youngest son.
Sam's wife got that pension and then bought a large farm on the outskirts of the Twist and began to live a quiet life. He died shortly after, and Sam's third son, Cam, ran away from home and disappeared. The eldest son, Rim, inherited the farm, married a wife, and had a son and two daughters.
This was the only relief Levi felt relieved, and he silently put his hood on his head, ready to go and see Sam's eldest son's farm. If he had the chance, he would have brought Sam's third son back.
He soon drove to the Rem's farm, and as soon as he got closer, he heard a man and a woman arguing on the farm, very sharp and loud.
Levi saw the tall tramp man with a side to him again, but he was dressed up a little now, at least not as sloppy as the tramp, just as decadent as an unemployed young man.
A man and a woman in their forties were arguing in front of him, and he was clustered to the side at a loss, as if he were embarrassed to dig out a Notre Dame with his toes on the ground.
Rats emerged from his trouser legs and into the fields.
As if angry, the woman went upstairs and slammed the door shut. The cries of several children echoed through the farm, followed by the women's rebukes.
The middle-aged man came up to the homeless man and said, "Cam, I'm sorry, your sister-in-law has been like this all the time......"
He seemed very embarrassed to explain to his younger brother, then took out a large stack of green knives from his pants and handed it to the homeless man: "You take it first, you can come back to me when you run out, it's better to find a serious job in the twist, and then find a woman to live with." If you can't find it, you can come to me, and I'll plant a third of the field for you......"
The homeless man silently accepted the stack of knives and looked at the middle-aged man without speaking. The middle-aged man just patted him on the shoulder, smiled, and went upstairs.
The homeless man turned his head and saw Levi outside the farm, and his originally confused eyes suddenly became vigilant.
"Do you have time to talk?" Levi looked at the homeless man and asked.
A rat came out of the field and got into the trouser leg of the homeless man, and he didn't speak, but walked out of the farm and led Levi to the riverbank.
"Did you come to me for something?" The homeless man sat on the embankment and asked.
Levi also sat aside, completely unconcerned about the rats running around: "If I'm not mistaken, you should probably call me uncle, rat man." ”
The homeless man was silent, looked at the river in front of him, and threw out a pebble.
