Chapter 555: The Day to Connect the Past and the Future (Part 2)
The giant land fighter mecha called Skuo has now changed from a temporary equipment that serves as a storefront to a formally equipped weapon. According to Lehman's memory, Zelinsky has completed the installation transformation of Skuo. Now the skuo has become smaller, stronger, and more practical. It has become a special unit in Lehman's troops specifically targeting giant land targets and ground attacks.
It is precisely because of this that there are not many people. Now the troops are selecting special drivers to take charge. This is impossible to build a few more things for their family to play. Tex itself has retained a driver's quota, but it's okay that his adoptive father, Lehman, can only say sorry.
Tres, who was unable to drive the giant robot, was obviously disappointed. Without the giant carrot, Tres planned to find his second boy to speak well, but just before he succeeded, Carol was already carrying the large plate of dumplings and pushing the door with the women at home. When his wife glared, Tres immediately shrank back and felt cowardly.
"Have you all been told?" Carol asked as he arranged the tableware and food, looking at his husband.
"Totally OK." Teres gave a thumbs up and gestured.
"Let's have a meal," Carol arranged for everyone to sit down, and then looked at her husband, "Shut up, I'll say my prayers before the meal."
Teres curled his lips. He was not as obedient as his wife. He told him that it was usually just a sentence [Thank you for having food today]. However, after so many years of marriage, he knew very well the importance of [Don't argue with his wife about details] and [Get the big and let go of the small]. So he closed his mouth, stretched out his left hand to hold his wife's hand, stretched out his right hand to hold the eldest man's hand, and then closed his eyes.
After everyone's hands were held together, Carol began to close his eyes and recite prayer, and a lot of words [Thank you for xxx] blurted out--but because of his eyes closed, Carol didn't see it. Except for her, everyone on the table was actually open. Trace didn't believe it since the federal government bullied the people, Jim never believed it, let alone Lehman, Knight and Shasha were aliens... etc.
In short, no one believed the people at the table, but everyone on the table looked at each other and smiled, and kept quiet. When Carol prayed and said [Amen], he closed his eyes, and then opened his eyes with Carol---Although everyone believed it, respecting the mother of a family is a common creed. Even Tex, who has been away from home since childhood, cooperates very well.
"Let's have a meal." Carol, who found that everyone seemed to cooperate, happily knocked on the plate.
So everyone around the dining table moved. Teres and Carol made a dumpling for each other at the first time, and then smiled at each other; Jim and Carrigan stretched the fork onto the same plate of dumplings; Lehmann had not said anything, the two dumplings had fallen into his plate from Knight and Shasha; Gulida was curiously grabbing a dumpling with her spirit and looking left and right, but found that Ariel Hansen, who was sitting next to her, had already placed a dumpling on her plate with a red face.
Tex looked at all this, and his heart, which had already been as hard as iron, still had a ripple in his heart--he was born in a small town in Ma Sara. The meaning of that town was to give truck drivers a break. Her mother had slept with countless truck drivers. He didn't even know who his own father was, and her mother didn't care about him--in fact, if the federal subsidy for single parents was not more than that for singles, his mother wouldn't have given him a baby (Note 1).
So he left the cold place when he was twelve years old and never looked back. For a long time after that, the closest existence to his family was Jim Renault. Now facing this rich family division, Tex only felt awkward. He began to curse himself in his heart, cursing himself for a meal at that time, perhaps because he didn't want to offend the big boss Lehman, or wanted to give his only brother a face?
While thinking about it, Tex lowered his head and saw the food called dumplings on the plate in front of him. A trace of abnormality attracted his attention. Soon, he raised his head suspiciously and looked at the dumplings on other people's plates and confirmed that his doubts were well-founded--the plate of dumplings in front of him was much larger than the plates on others, and looked like a fist.
Tex raised his head suspiciously and met Carol. The tough mother of Slow's origin stared into Tex's eyes and said word by word:
"Mr. Finley, Tex, although I don't like some of the things you and my son do together, I'm not so confused that I blame you for some of the things my son does. I want to thank you, thank you for being Jim's only friend in the darkest moments, protecting him, and hope that you two will always be friends. I have nothing to give to you, but I can guarantee that this home and this dining table will always have a place for you in the future. I wish you a good appetite. I know you eat a lot and the dumplings you make are big."
The cruel life had long left Tex's heart without flesh and blood, leaving only steel hardness, but perhaps just like the earth where humans stood - there was still hot magma surging deep under the hard strata. Carol Reno's words still made the only remaining burning heat in Tex Finley's heart stir up.
"Thank you, Mrs. Renault," Tex wanted to laugh, but found that the fake smile that I could squeeze out was not squeezed out at will. In the end, he only showed an ugly expression that he could not smile, "Jimmy... probably is the few not-so-bad people I have met in my bad life. I'm very... that... very happy."
"Eat more and say less when you are happy," Jim Renault muttered and inserted a dumpling for himself. "I'm still happy. Do you know how to use the word honor? If you don't know how to speak, just eat your meal. Oh, this mutton dumpling is delicious."
Pa ! An oversized dumpling skin flew directly on Jim's face. Tex sucked the filling into his mouth and said with a strange smile:
"Shut up, Jimmy, don't think you are my boss's brother, I won't dare to deal with you."
Jim Renault and Tex Finley laughed and scolded each other from a distance, and they became a mess. After laughing and scolding for a while, the two stopped in a sympathetic manner. Tex looked at Jim and said:
"Are you thinking about what I'm thinking, Jimmy?"
"Yes, if Kidd, Harnike, Casey and others were still there at this time, that would be great..." Recalling the dead demons, Jim Renault's face also showed a bit of heavy weight--If there is anything else he and Tex can't let go now, then they must be the dead demons.
Jim and Tex were in memories and couldn't extricate themselves. They didn't notice the sudden change of expression on Carrigan's face. Ordinary people could not notice the brief change of expression, but the psychics noticed the violent fluctuations in Carrigan's thinking. Gulida raised his head in confusion. Lehman and Knight looked at each other, and then suppressed Gulida who was about to jump up and talk.
