After living in the apocalypse for ten years, Qin Luo has long forgotten that there is such an industry as express delivery. This cannot be blamed on him. For the current world, Qin Luo can no longer be said to be both familiar and unfamiliar, but very strange. I believe everyone who has lived in the last ten years will have this feeling.
A terrifying world full of zombies, half-corpse people, horrible mutant animals and plants. Except for those dilapidated buildings, you can't believe that you are still standing on the earth. Because everything on this planet is no longer what you once remembered.
Qin Luo slowly descended the stairs to the first floor, and the courier who was standing in the living room waiting for him to sign for the delivery couldn't help but twitch his mouth. This family is amazing enough, a little old man jumping around trying to steal the box from under his nose, and a strong black middle-aged man looking at the box eagerly. The young man who came down from upstairs now looked more like Grandma Liu than he did. Looking at the things on display in the hall, I wish I could put my eyeballs on them and scan them again.
Aunt Liu looked suspicious, Qin Luo was full of weirdness today. She felt that the old man's pot shot just now really hurt her brain, and she felt a twinge of pain in her heart. She has no child under her knees, but she pulled out this child with shit and urine, it really hurts to treat it like her own son.
Seeing the wooden box at the courier's feet, Qin Luo's heart sank. The size of this wooden box was very similar to the one he remembered. Grabbing the wooden box quickly was about to be dismantled, and the courier on the side quickly pressed the documents on the box.
"Sir, please sign for it."
Qin Luo was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered that the express delivery before the end of the world still had this procedure. After hastily signing his name, he turned his attention back to the box.
Grandpa and Uncle Liu all came together, eager to participate in opening the box. They all remembered that the last time they took something delicious out of this box.
At this moment, Qin Luo's heart was in his throat, desperately praying that there would be nothing in the box that he didn't want to see. In his memory, on September 15th, he received a nineteenth birthday present from his sister abroad—a small long-distance radio-controlled aircraft. Along with it was a letter addressed to him, in which Qin Luo knew that her sister had boarded the plane carrying 24 scientific researchers.
The moment the wooden box was opened, Qin Luo's heart almost stopped beating. A brand-new small infinite remote control aircraft was quietly placed there, and the white fuselage carried his familiar texture.
Qin Luo turned to look at Aunt Liu, her voice trembling, "Aunt Liu, today, what date is it today? What date is it?"
Aunt Liu was taken aback by his question, and was also a little dazed seeing his expression on the verge of crying. "7, July 28th. What, what's the matter?"
When the time is wrong, there is hope. Qin Luo comforted himself desperately, turned his head and took out the remote control plane inside with shaking hands, and took out the things that were brought to grandpa and the others under the plane one by one. After searching the wooden box, I didn't find anything related to the letter paper.
"Shouldn't it?" Qin Luo frowned, snatched back all the things that were secretly taken away by Grandpa and Uncle Liu, and checked them one by one. No crumbs were found.
Aunt Liu became even more suspicious, seeing that Qin Luo was looking for something, but she felt flustered when she saw this nagging posture.
"Little Luo, what are you looking for?" Aunt Liu asked worriedly.
"Letters, cards, whatever you want to leave a message is fine. Didn't she like to put these things in the mail before, how could there be nothing this time."
The corners of Aunt Liu's mouth twitched. In the past, this brat complained about his sister's nasty behavior, saying that it was a waste of romance to come with his younger brother to give gifts and clip notes. There was no note today, so he couldn't take it anymore, as if the sky was falling.
Clearing her throat, Aunt Liu kindly reminded, "Didn't you complain to me the afternoon before yesterday that Xiaoya sent you a nasty email?"
"e-mail?"
Qin Luo didn't have the slightest impression, but since Aunt Liu said it, he ran back to the room quickly, turned on the computer and logged in to his mailbox.
Sure enough, there was a letter from two days ago in the mailbox, and the sender was indeed sister Qin Ya.
Quickly skipping those nasty words, Qin Luo accurately captured an important piece of information—
Xiao Luo, my sister can't go back to celebrate your birthday with you this time. Your brother-in-law and I have a very important job. There will be a long period of closed research, so the gift is sent to you in advance. This is a great study, although my sister can't tell you what I'm going to do, but my sister can assure you. Even if I don't miss you every day, I will pray and bless you every day. In half an hour, the flight will take off, and the sun in Sacramento is very bright, which makes my heart full of hope. Hope my twenty-four colleagues can...
Sacramento, flight, twenty-four... Qin Luo only felt his head buzzing.
Aunt Liu was a little worried about Qin Luo, and quietly followed him upstairs, seeing that the door of his room was still open, she walked in. Qin Luo's computer and TV are both on, and the noon news is broadcasting big and small things abroad. And he was just so pale, staring at the TV.
"Xiao Luo, what's wrong with you, Xiao Luo?" Aunt Liu could no longer pretend to be calm at this moment, this child was really out of order today.
Qin Luo slowly raised his hand and pointed at the TV screen. Aunt Liu heard the news of a plane crash being broadcast inside, while Qin Luo looked speechless. Aunt Liu's heart fell to the bottom in an instant, and she vaguely felt that Xiao Luo seemed to be sending her very bad news.
"My sister, my sister and my brother-in-law are all on this plane."
"You, did you make a mistake?" Aunt Liu's voice was trembling.
Qin Luo shook his head with a pale face.
Aunt Liu shook her body, if Qin Luo hadn't helped her up, she would have collapsed on the ground.
"What kind of evil did you do... God, you can't pity our family, the old and the young, how can we live..."
Aunt Liu still slipped her seat on the floor and burst into tears.
Qin Luo's tears were also rolling in the circles of his eyes, but after all, he had experienced it once eleven years ago, and his ability to bear it was far stronger than Aunt Liu. Although the end of the world is approaching, death is far happier than life, but it is better to live than to die. What's more, since God gave him a chance to start over, no matter what he said, he couldn't just give up so easily. Even if he couldn't save his sister and brother-in-law, at least he would bring Qin Ke back and protect his grandfather, Aunt Liu, and Uncle Liu.
He helped Aunt Liu up and sent her back to his room. Qin Luo waited for Aunt Liu to stabilize her mood, and then told her about raising Qin Ke.
Aunt Liu saw that Qin Luo became stronger quickly, and held back her tears, but the worries in her heart continued unabated. Not to mention that the Donaldson family is considered a respectable family in the UK, even Xiao Qinke's uncle is also a remarkable figure. If their family is still as beautiful and crowded as before, the Donaldson family will not be afraid. But ever since the old man and wife disappeared in Amazon, the old man of the Qin family took people to search and never returned, and the family fell into ruin. If it weren't for the support of their in-laws and masters, their life would definitely be even more difficult. It's a pity that God doesn't have eyes. When Qin Luo was fifteen years old, something happened to his in-laws and he became crazy. Now that they are orphans and widows, how can they compete with the Donaldson family for custody.
Besides, Qin Ke is the Chinese name given by Xiaoya, and he also has a famous English name named Rhys Donaldson. Aunt Liu had heard from Qin Ya before that Qin Ke's uncle had been conferred a title by the Queen. Although Aunt Liu didn't understand the specific difference, she felt that it was similar to the old prince Baylor. How could it be possible for children from this kind of family to be raised by ordinary people like them, let alone half a world away.
Qin Luo told Aunt Liu not to worry. He had a will made by his sister and brother-in-law in his hand, which clearly stated that if something happened to the two of them, the child would be brought up by Qin Luo.
Aunt Liu didn't know much about the law, so she felt relieved after hearing what he said. With a long sigh, Qin Luo asked Qin Luo to call and book a plane ticket first. Since I can bring little Qin Ke back, of course it is more reassuring to keep him by my side, who knows if the little guy will be abused there. Aunt Liu has seen the grievances and grievances of those wealthy families on TV, and none of them have any good intentions. In order to avoid long nights and dreams, Aunt Liu specifically told Qin Luo to book a flight ticket for the next few days and bring Qin Ke back as soon as possible.
Qin Luo nodded again and again, comforted Aunt Liu, and then returned to her room.
The will just mentioned is naturally used to comfort Aunt Liu, not to mention that Qin Ya has never written such a will, even if it exists, it is legally invalid. But for Xiao Qinke's uncle, Qin Luo later made a lot of efforts to investigate him and knew many secrets about him.
After the outbreak of the last days, the things he did are nothing to say. But before the end of the world, it was enough to completely pull down a glamorous British nobleman. With such a handle in hand, Qin Luo is not afraid that he will not give up Qin Ke's custody.
