Mrs. Admiral of the Stars is a black household

Chapter 214 The Old House



Chapter 214 The Old House

"Why don't you eat?" Lu Li was a little curious.

The child said: "I want to wait for my father to come back and eat together."

Lu Li understood that this was actually a very sensible child. He looked at the desolate environment outside and sympathized with them, but there was nothing he could do.

To change the status quo of Vala Star, it cannot be done in a few words, it will be a long process.

Hulk and two soldiers soon returned with good news.

Hulk has lived in Area C for more than ten years, and he does know that some old people here are very old. He doesn't know how long they have lived in Area C, but some of them must be more than decades.

The other party knew Hulk, and after getting the promised stars and food, he followed.

As soon as the kid saw his father came back, his eyes brightened instantly, he stood up and ran to Hulk, showing him the fruit in his hand.

Fruit is a very luxurious food in Vala Star. Some people can't eat a single fruit all year round. This is one of the reasons why their children are malnourished.

Hulk was very surprised, and immediately knew that it was given to his son by Lu Li, he squatted down and hugged his son, his eyes were slightly red, he was so useless.

When the soldiers brought the old man in, Lu Li hugged Shuai Shuai into Qin Yu's arms, asking him to ask such a thing, and asking Qin Yu to open his mouth would probably scare him into the urine within two or three times.

At that time, the old man did not expect that there would be so many people on the other side. After arriving here, he was a little startled, but he calmed down immediately.

He also knew Hulk, and Hulk was fine, and he thought the other party was really just asking questions.

"What's your name, and how long have you lived in Area C?" Lu Li saw the old man's uneasiness, and when he spoke, his voice was warm and friendly.

The old man glanced at him. Compared with Qin Yu's oppressive eyes, he immediately knew that this person was better, "Just call me George. I have lived in District C for so long, seven or eighty years."

Seven to eighty years is not particularly long for the lifespan of interstellar humans, but it is already considered relatively long in the C area.

Hulk knew that they were looking for someone, so he purposely found George. In the early years, George was quite active with them and knew a lot of things, but the older he got, the more powerless he gradually became, and he seldom appeared in front of people.

"I want to ask you about someone. You know that 50 years ago, there was a family named Shu. Their family lost a child. It was a boy, about five years old, named Shu Jin." Lu Li asked in a gentle voice.

"Fifty years ago, that was too long ago." George glanced left and right.

Lu Li immediately asked the soldier to bring him a chair, "Can you remember?"

George was not too polite, he sat down directly, his expression was a little empty, he seemed to be lost in memory, and he laughed out loud after a long time, "It's so long ago, let alone 50 years ago, even 20 years ago, most people probably can't remember it .”

Lu Li found that there was something in his words, "Listen to what you mean, do you know?"

"Hey, if you ask other people, I'm sure I don't know, but you said that the family surnamed Shu did exist 50 years ago. I can't forget it even if I want to. The residents of Vala Star are all outsiders. The family named Shu There can be several, but I can remember not because only that family has the surname Shu, but because we were neighbors back then."

George has lived in District C for so long, but he hasn't changed many places. He may not remember other people, but he remembers the few neighbors clearly. Among them, the neighbor surnamed Shu is the most impressive one.

Lu Li didn't expect to find it so smoothly, but his reaction was a little slow, and he said after a while, "Can you show us?"

Just take people there, of course there is no problem.

"Then let's go now, it's not far from here." George got up.

Lu Li also stood up, thought of something, and looked back at Qin Yu.

Qin Yu stood up holding his son, and said in a deep voice, "Let's go."

A group of people walked out of the space-time capsule house.

George led the way, Hulk and his son stayed in the capsule house, and a dozen soldiers also stayed here.

The distance that George said is not far is really not far. You don’t even need to use the suspension car, and you can walk there in 10 to [-] minutes.

It is also a slum area. Rows of houses pass by. It can be judged from the appearance that this place used to be quite rich, because the houses are very large. For some reason, it has fallen into poverty now. Many of these houses are uninhabited. Slowly, was eroded.

Some homeless homeless people will use these houses as temporary shelters, go out to find food during the day, and return here to sleep at night.

"Here, this white house is what you're looking for." George led them to a house that couldn't be seen to be white anymore.

The house is a bit big, and there is a courtyard in front of it. It is surrounded by walls more than four or five meters high.

The courtyard is full of weeds, which are already more than one meter high. There are also big trees that can cover the sky and the sun, and there are dilapidated fences inside. There should be something planted here before, but it can't be seen anymore.

"As you said, 50 years have passed and the place has been abandoned for 50 years." George didn't know the relationship between them and the owner of the house. If they were relatives, it would be too late to find them now.

"What is that?" Lu Li suddenly looked at a stone standing under the tree in the courtyard.

George glanced at it with a calm expression, "That is the tombstone of the owner of this house, who has been dead for 50 years."

Lu Li walked over, and the tombstone had not been cleaned for many years, and it was covered with vines, blocking the names on it tightly.

Lu Li bent down and began to clean the vines on the tombstone, and a name was revealed with a flick - Shu Yuying, a very beautiful name, but it was written crookedly.

"This tombstone was erected by me. I haven't written on it for many years, and the writing is not good." George smiled, and there seemed to be a trace of nostalgia in his smile.

Lu Li guessed that if they were just ordinary neighbors, no matter how impressive they were, they might not remember them. The other party remembered so clearly, there must have been a story.

In addition to the name on the tombstone, there is also the time of the owner's death. George didn't know the birth of the hostess, so he only wrote the time of death.

The owner of the tombstone died 52 years ago. Calculating the time, my father was only five or six years old at that time. It should be around that time that he was trafficked by human traffickers.

The voice of George's memory rang in his ears.

"More than 50 years ago, there was no zoning here, and the living conditions of people living in this area were relatively good, but there was only one mistress and her child in this house. Later, her child disappeared, and the mistress went crazy. He died of illness in two years."

There is no doubt that the mistress he is talking about is Lu Li's father's mother.

When he came to Vala Star, Lu Li had already had a premonition that the chances of his father's family members still alive were not high. Unexpectedly, his grandmother passed away for so many years. She must have left with deep remorse and regret.

"Aside from the hostess and her children, is there no host here?" Lu Li asked again.

He doubted whether such a big house could be kept by only one woman and child in the situation of Vala Star.

George recalled, "I haven't seen the male master much."

"That's it?"

"Well, I once saw the suspected male owner's car appearing in front of the house, but it was only once, and I never saw it again. I'm not sure if it's the man."

Lu Li didn't ask any more questions, and entered the house, the inside was as dilapidated and empty as the outside.

After the death of the mistress, the house became completely unowned. Slowly, all the usable things in it were removed, and the unusable things were thrown everywhere.

He found a photo frame on the ground, turned it over and found that it was a woman and a little boy. Fifty years later, the photo had been corroded and whitened, and the outline could hardly be seen, but Lu Li put it away like a treasure.

This is probably also a little bit of evidence left by the owner of this house.

"May I ask, what is the relationship between you and the owner of this house?" Although George had a guess, he was not sure.

"My father's name is Shu Jin." Lu Li replied.

George opened his mouth slightly in surprise, and he sighed heavily after a while, "Shu Jin is the name of the child who was abducted by the traffickers. After so many years, I thought he was dead."

"My father did pass away, more than 20 years ago." Lu Li did not hide or avoid it.

George was taken aback, "Their mother and son are poor people."

He glanced at the tombstone, thinking that their mother and son should have been reunited underground more than 20 years ago.

After handing over the promised things to George and sending him away, Lu Li said to Qin Yu, "I want to rebuild this house."

Even if you don't live here, this is also my father's home when he was a child.

"Okay." Qin Yu didn't hesitate at all.

"Who are you and what are you doing in my house?" An angry man's voice came from outside the courtyard.

The sound insulation here is not very good, you can hear clearly inside.

When Lu Li and Qin Yu came out, a man wanted to rush over, but was stopped by the soldiers guarding outside.

"You said this is your house?" Lu Li heard from George that the place was occupied by several hooligans, and he thought this man was one of them. "Of course." The man replied confidently.

"What's that?" Lu Li asked back, pointing to the tombstone under the tree.

The man immediately understood what he meant, and said bluntly: "Dead man, this house used to have an owner, but everyone is dead, and now it belongs to us."

Lu Li frowned, "I am the grandson of the owner of the tombstone. From now on, this house will return to the original owner, and I will not come here again."

"Why, who knows if you are lying." The man was dissatisfied.

"There are a lot of dilapidated houses here. Do I need to fight with you for a house decades ago?"

Lu Li didn't want to cause trouble, but the man obviously didn't want to let it go. Seeing that there were so many people here, he left a sentence and ran away.

Everyone didn't take him seriously. Since they decided to rebuild the house, there was no need to procrastinate.
