Kunpeng came back very quickly, and brought back little Jack. He did not find little Jack in the Gaston Building, but he heard two guys from the Jiujiu Gang who were getting high mentioned the kidnapping, and arrested one of them for questioning. Then they went to the simple hotel where Little Jack was placed, where the members of the Nine-Nine Gang who were guarding Little Jack had their throats cut directly by him.
"Little Jack..." Scarlett and Madeleine both hugged little Jack and kissed and hugged them, crying.
"Thank you..." To Kunpeng, the two of them were even more grateful.
At this time, the phone in the study room rang. Lu Ming came into the room and answered the phone. It was Davitt's voice: "General, Punk has recruited us. He betrayed our informant. His first line was Ma Gusi, the owner of Mags Car Dealer." Gus, who became Eric.”
Lu Ming nodded. Davitt was a specially trained intelligence agent. How could ordinary people endure the torture used to extract confessions?
During the war, any prisoner of war or people in the occupied areas would shudder when they heard the word "First Control". In this Gede area, it was obvious that people like Punk had no idea what a terrible magic cave organization the First Control was.
After thinking about it, Lu Ming picked up the red phone and dialed Admiral Dönitz's direct secret line.
Coming out of the study, Lu Ming shook his head. He originally hoped that General Dönitz would approve his special operation.
That is, wiping out the Jiujiu Gang and arresting Eric for interrogation.
But Admiral Dönitz wanted to endure it for the time being, because his request for instructions was in the highest-level discussion stage, and he should not create extraneous matters at this time.
Outside the study, Madeleine came up to him, "General..."
Lu Ming waved his hand and said with a smile: "Just call me Bit, you are not my subordinates."
Madeline hesitated for a moment, "Okay, Mr. Bit, Scarlett and I are very grateful to you, but Scarlett doesn't dare to talk to you..." After a pause, "Our whole family wants to thank you. I hope Can I treat you to a meal? Do you have time?"
Lu Ming smiled and said, "Let me treat you. We live in the same courtyard and we should get to know each other." He looked at his watch and said, "Just tonight, I should have time."
Madeleine was overjoyed, "Okay! Okay!" She didn't have much hope at first.
…
Scarlett's family is really all handsome and beautiful, including Scarlett's brother and sister-in-law, including Scarlett's sister and brother-in-law.
Even Scarlett's parents could vaguely tell that she must have been handsome and beautiful when she was young.
The restaurant in the east wing is very large, with a family of more than a dozen people, but it is surprisingly quiet.
This large family is raised by Scarlett. In fact, it is not that this family is blood-sucking. Before the war broke out, Scarlett's parents ran a good company, and her brother, sister, and sister were also elite figures in society.
But now, if the Ged people are not living in slums and still have assets, they still often hear about being kidnapped and violently treated.
Many Ged people have left the land of their ancestors, but often they cannot take their assets with them.
As a once popular star, Scarlett and her family were also on a list prohibited from leaving the state. Especially in the early days of the war, almost all of Scarlett's family participated in demonstrations to protest against the Sonia invasion.
If it weren't for the shelter provided by the First Control, such a celebrity family would have disappeared long ago.
After more than ten years of white terror, it is inevitable that this family's thinking mode is different from that of ten years ago. Ten years ago, they were still filled with indignation over the Sonia invasion. With the various rules of the empire's tradition, and Sonia people protest.
But now, the family just wants to survive and not be suddenly taken away by the Rose Party military police and disappear forever.
I even hope that I can be removed from the "blacklist" that everyone knows exists, escape from here, and escape to the East China Sea or the Northern Territory.
At the dinner table, no one else spoke except Madeline and Lu Ming who picked up the topic and chatted for a few words. As for Madeline, the topics she chose were obviously ones she had thought about over and over again before dinner.
"Do you rarely go out?" Lu Ming suddenly asked.
Madeleine sighed: "Schools are not safe now. Where can I dare to go out?" She looked at her twin daughters and said, "You two are not going to school tomorrow."
Lu Ming waved his hand: "Don't be so nervous, but their schools are a bit far away. Let's find a school nearby. Isn't our Banshan No. 22 a private primary school?"
Everyone was stunned. There was a private primary school in Mid-Levels called St. George Primary School. There were not many students at all. They were all children of wealthy families who lived in Mid-Levels. The tuition fees were surprisingly high. It was said that a real aristocratic school also opened Noble etiquette course, the teacher used to be a steward in the court of the United Kingdom.
Lu Ming looked at the children.
The third generation of Scarlett's family, her brother's sister-in-law's family consists of a boy and a girl. The boy is fourteen or fifteen years old, probably in middle school, and the girl is about twelve or thirteen years old, maybe fourth or fifth grade in elementary school.
Scarlett's sister's family has twin girls, about eleven or twelve years old.
Scarlett's son Jack Jr. is also eleven or twelve years old.
My sister's husband's daughter is still young, about four or five years old.
Lu Ming thought for a moment and said, "Everyone who goes to primary school will be transferred to St. George Primary School. I will fund the tuition." He looked at little Jack and said with a smile, "I really like this little guy. Does he have a godfather?"
Scarlett shook her head slightly.
Lu Ming said: "Then let me be his godfather? What do you think?"
Scarlett's eyes lit up: "You, are you willing to be little Jack's godfather?"
Lu Ming nodded: "I told you, I like this little guy very much."
In fact, it's because St. George's Primary School is directly adjacent to Villa No. 21, so I have an excuse to go to St. George's Primary School for more walks.
"Can you also be the godfather of Sister Dosier?" Madeleine said from the side. Sister Dosier is her twin daughter.
Scarlett said even more anxiously: "Yes, yes, look at the two little Taosiers, how cute and beautiful they are."
Lu Ming was slightly startled. Scarlett seemed to have unusual feelings for her sister's twin daughters.
Although it is strange to be asked to be a godfather, it is understandable that if these Ged children have a godfather like themselves, they will naturally receive some kind of protection.
Lu Ming thought for a moment, "I understand what you mean, let's do this. From little John to little Grace, their six brothers and sisters will all be my godson and goddaughter from now on!"
Little John is the oldest of the third generation of the family, the son of Scarlett's brother.
Little Grace is the youngest, the daughter of Scarlett's sister.
"I will not change my beliefs!" Before anyone else could speak, Little John lowered his head and his voice was trembling. It was obvious that he mustered up the courage to say this.
Among the third generation, he was the oldest, and when the Sonia massacred the Gedes, he was already sensible and could remember things.
Unlike his younger brothers and sisters, who were all born after the war, they would think that the world was originally like this. They, the Gaede people, had the fate of being oppressed and discriminated against, and they might be attacked and beaten by fanatics at any time, or even beaten. Beat to death.
The religious beliefs of the Sonia and the Ged are actually from the same origin, different branches, but the Sonia and the Grifenni are actually the same sect.
Lu Ming glanced at Little John, whose mother turned pale with fright and hugged him.
Little John's father apologized to Lu Ming again and again, "General, I'm sorry, he, he hasn't been feeling well these days, has been running a fever, and is talking nonsense."
Lu Ming smiled: "Little John, I didn't say I wanted to change your beliefs. In fact, I am an atheist, so it doesn't matter what your beliefs are, and I won't change your beliefs. As long as you are willing, you can." Be my godson and goddaughter, and I will ask you according to your own religious beliefs!”
The Scarlett family was dumbfounded. These words were so outrageous, but in the end no one dared to say anything.
Moreover, from now on, the children in the family have such a Sonia godfather who can protect them. Isn't this the most worthy of celebration for the family in the past ten years? It's been a long time since I've had such good news or such luck.
