Kapitel 49: Chapter 49: a ten year deal
"Skye, this will be your home from now on! How about it? cool right!" Eric proudly stood in front of his villa, showing off to his adopted daughter.
Skye was really shocked. She has lived in an orphanage since she can remember. The two foster families before and after are only middle class. In her short seven or eight years of life, she has only seen this kind of mansion on TV.
However, it was only a shock, and there was no happy expression on Skye's face. Maybe when she thought about it, she would be returned soon, like a piece of goods that no one wanted...
Eric didn't know what his adopted daughter was thinking. as he was very excited to take Skye around the villa, telling her where the study was, where was the recreation room, and where was the dining room...
"Look at this! This is the honor of our Lehnsherr family! Oh, by the way, from now on, your surname will be Lehnsherr, Skye Lehnsherr!" Eric's tone was serious, as he passed on his surname, but Skye isn't listening, she had already been attracted by the things in front of her.
This is the largest living room in the villa, with an area of more than 300 square meters. Eric built a miniature maglev train line here.
The rails are only a palm wide, but they spread all over the living room, sometimes going straight, sometimes circling up, sometimes swooping down, and finally linking together to form a closed loop that fills the entire living room. On the rails, a small train was galloping past.
"This is the contribution of the Lehnsherr family to the whole world, the maglev train!" Eric walked over to Skye and put his hand lightly on her shoulder, "This model is completely powered by solar energy, and in theory, this can last forever. Seventy years of nonstop running! Until the material is fully aged."
"Can people sit in it?" This was the first sentence Skye said after seeing Eric, which made Eric very happy.
"I'm afraid not, it's too small and too fast, no one can sit on it safely." Eric squatted down and pointed to the speeding train, "It can reach Mach two at the fastest speed. Faster than a bullet!"
Skye suddenly showed a disappointed expression. She didn't understand what the concept of two Machs was. She only knew that this thing was just a decoration. She could only look at it, not touch...
Seeing the expression on his adopted daughter's face, Eric hurriedly said: "Skye, don't worry, we are already building two real maglev train lines, and they will be open to traffic in more than three years! In the future, the whole of the United States and the whole earth will build these lines!."
Skye pursed his lips and said nothing.
Eric raised his eyebrows, it seems that his adopted daughter has closed her heart very well.
"Okay, Skye, this first day we met, so I want to give you a gift, tell me, what do you want most?"
Skye still ignored him, just staring at the speeding train in a daze.
Eric frowned, this is not good, there is no way to communicate at her at all! He pulled Skye's shoulders forcibly and stared into her eyes. "Listen, Skye! I know what you want most!"
Skye's eyes widened when he heard this, obviously not believing his nonsense.
"You want to find your biological parents, right?"
Skye's eyes widened, revealing her infinite longing and fear.
"You don't have to be afraid, I won't blame you, no orphan will not miss their parents." Eric stroked her forehead and pinned the hair that was blocking her eyes behind her ears, "I know where your parents are!"
Eric's words rang in Skye's ear like a shock, causing her to tremble. Two small hands tightly grasped Eric's arm, her lips trembled a few times, but she didn't want to speak.
"I'm sorry, Skye, your parents are very special, so I can't tell you for the time being, you just need to know that they are all still alive!" Eric stretched out a hand and hugged Skye, her little body seemed to have no any weight.
"Well, how about we make an appointment? You are eight years old this year, and in ten years, how about I tell you the news of your parents when you become an adult?"
"Ten years?!" Skye raised a small fist, almost hitting Eric in the face.
"Hey! Girl, don't get excited! Even if I tell you now, what can you do? You can't do anything! At least you have to be an adult before you can have enough strength to find them! So, ten years, is there a problem?" K smiled and pressed Skye's little fist down.
"Okay, my eighteenth birthday, you must tell me!" Skye's small eyes were full of expectation and determination.
"Of course, words count! However, this is conditional!"
Skye's body instantly stiffened, "What? Conditions?"
The corners of Eric's mouth twitched, "Well, every day for the past ten years, you have to take the initiative to say ten words to me, how about that?"
"Ten sentences a day?" Skye's eyes widened again, she never thought that Eric would make such a request.
"Of course, ten sentences a day, three hundred a month. Even if I'm not around, this number has to be accumulated. It must be three hundred sentences a month, and you must take the initiative to tell me, how about that?" Eric asked slyly.
Skye clenched her fist tightly, stared at him with her head tilted, and finally let go of his hand weakly after watching for a long time, "Okay, ten sentences!"
Eric laughed suddenly, took Skye to a spacious bedroom on the second floor, and put her on the princess bed, "Let's do this today, get a good night's sleep, we'll go buy you some clothes tomorrow morning. And , you can call me Eric, of course, if you like, I have no objection to calling me father!"
"Okay," Skye hesitated, "Eric."
Eric smiled nonchalantly, turned and closed the door for her.
As soon as the door closed, Eric let out a long sigh of relief. He opened his right hand, and a long slender hair lay quietly in his palm.
...
At the beginning of the villa's construction, Eric asked engineers to design a nuclear defense project underground, which is a common practice among the wealthy in the United States.
The entire nuclear defense project is the size of a football field, and was transformed into a research and experimental center by Eric. The hundred or so Hydra researchers he brought back from the North Pole are now hidden there.
What is special is that this nuclear defense project has no entrance and no exit.
The only place to go in and out is in Eric's study.
The base of this study is a two-meter-thick steel plate. Eric stood in the study and raised his hand slightly to the ground. The steel plate suddenly melted and collapsed into a narrow passage.
