026. Flicker
"Mom, are you in the house?"
Seeing the strange man and woman at the door of her house, a trace of curiosity flashed in the eyes of the round-faced girl at the end of the corridor.
The girl was about fourteen or five years old, her reddish-brown hair was tied into a long braided braid, her big blue eyes were as bright as jewels, and her pink jade cheeks still had a hint of baby fat, which made people want to pinch them twice.
Although the white-washed red short sleeves and jeans on his body are slightly shabby, they can't hide the graceful figure that is already quite large.
On the girl's left hand, side by side stood a white-haired young man with a sly and sly look.
"Wow! It's so cute. β
The moment she saw the girl, Lilith's eyes glowed green like a hungry wolf, and her eyes almost flowed from the corners of her mouth.
Is this the Wanda in the mouth of a stinky man? No wonder he didn't hesitate to fly thousands of miles to this place. β
After calming down, a sudden look flashed in the female secretary's eyes.
Not to mention those stinky men with lust, even a big beauty like her can't help but want to hug each other's pink cheeks and take two bites.
It's a pity, I can only think about it.
"Wanda, Pietro, are you out of school? Hurry on in. β
A far-fetched smile pulled out of the corner of her mouth, and after escorting her children into the room, Irina hesitated for two seconds, and then let go of the door behind her: "The two... Please come in, too. β
It's a blessing or a curse, and it's a disaster that can't be avoided.
After pouring a cup of hot water for Ron and Lilith to sit down, Irina pulled little Wanda to sit down on the sofa in the living room.
"Uh-huh."
Clearing her throat, Irina nervously looked at a man and a woman on the sofa opposite and asked, "Now can you tell me what you're looking for Wanda for?" β
Ron smiled and said, "Of course it's a good thing, a big good thing!" β
"A good thing?"
Hearing this word, the vigilance in Irina's heart soared again.
The reason why their family has been able to live peacefully in Xiacheng until now is because they have never been greedy and not nosy.
In fact, not only she, a mature adult, didn't believe it, but even Wanda on the side didn't believe it, and looked over with big eyes: "Do we know each other, sir?" β
"I didn't know each other before, but now I know each other."
"Introduce yourself, contemptible Ron Zod, chairman and CEO of Zeekr.
His lifelong dream is to build a harmonious world where there is no war, no famine, no oppression, no exploitation, no cheating, no killing, and everyone is equal. β
After introducing himself, Ron finally got down to business: "Maybe you don't know yet, but the gears of fate have quietly begun to turn, and the prelude to the era has begun."
Changes unseen in a millennium are coming, and the world will become more turbulent than ever.
Whether it is a high-ranking official or a peddler's pawn; Whether in Sokovia or at the edge of the galaxy; Whether it is a god high up in the sky, or an ordinary person in the mortal world.
If you are not careful, you will be torn to pieces by this huge vortex.
In order to cope with the coming turbulent times and to save all mankind from the changes in the future, we are discovering talented people with special talents around the world and striving to train them to become the mainstay of future human society. β
Like a magic stick, several people were stunned, and Ron stretched out his hand and pointed at the round-faced little Lori who was stunned on the other side: "It just so happens that your daughter, Wanda Maximov, is such a talented person!" β
Biting her pink lip, Wanda said worriedly: "Special talent, me, me?" β
Aside from her better academic performance, she didn't think she was much better than her classmates.
The white-haired spiritual guy next to him clasped his hands to his chest and said angrily: "How do I feel that what you say is less reliable than myths and stories?" β
"You must be Pietro."
In the face of doubts, Ron's face did not change, and he had already prepared a little bit of the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and a clear holographic projection shot out from the center of the frame, startling several people.
"Have you finished reading it? This footage was captured by our company's satellite in New Mexico 10 days ago. β
"The big silly man with a hammer and a red cloak is the god of thunder in Norse mythology - Saul Odinson, and the blue-skinned giant next to him is Laufey, the king of ice giants, who is also a god in Norse mythology."
After playing the battle footage of Thor and Laufey, Ron immediately switched to the next video: "This tawny monster that uses armored vehicles as toys is a space-time experiment of the US military, and Lilith next to me is a witness to the events of that night." β
"After watching these videos, do you still think I'm joking?"
"This ......"
Not only Wanda's family, but even the female secretary was frightened by what was shown in the first video.
Are the gods and goddesses of myths and legends real?
"This, this, this ......"
After experiencing the initial seriousness, Irina struggled a bit, but finally rejected Ron's proposal: "We just want Wanda to spend her life in peace and happiness, sir, please go back." β
"Don't be in a hurry to refuse, we still have a lot to talk about Wanda, after listening to my next words, you will definitely change ......"
'Jingle Bell Bell Ringββ! β
A hurried phone rang suddenly, interrupting Ron's words.
"I'm sorry."
With an apologetic smile, Irina walked quickly to the corner where the phone was, picked up the microphone, and exchanged in a low voice
"Even-bought karma!"
With an exclamation, the housewife's face instantly turned extremely pale, and her figure was shaky.
Petero's eyes were fast, and he hurriedly ran over to help himself: "Mom, what's wrong?" β
Holding her son's shoulders, Irina had red eyes and sobbed, "It's your father!" He suddenly passed out at work and had just been taken to the hospital by his friends, so we hurried over! β
Putting the middle-aged housewife's words into his ears word for word, Ron glanced at the round-faced little Lori next to him with tears rolling in his eyes, and took the initiative to ask: "My car happened to be parked downstairs, let's go over together." β
"Thank you."
After changing their shoes, Wanda's family of three ran towards the corridor in a hurry.
Following behind the family of three, Lilith approached her mysterious boss and asked in a low voice, "Boss, what you just said is true?" β
"What's true?"
"It is the arrival of a new era and the great changes unseen in a thousand years."
"Only a fool would believe what I say."
"I knew it!"
Lilith rolled her eyes fiercely.
This unscrupulous guy is definitely trying to kidnap the little girl named Wanda, so he deliberately adds fuel and vinegar to make the matter so serious.
Maybe the first video was forged by the other party in advance, so as to win people's trust.
Otherwise, why didn't Saul and Laufey come early or late, just before they came to Sokovia?
The female secretary silently praised her wit.
At the same time, he was secretly relieved.
May there be peace in the world.
