Marvel: This Magneto is a good guy
Chapter 49: Ten-year Agreement
"Skye, this will be your home from now on! How about it? It's cool!" Eric stood proudly in front of his villa, showing off to his adopted daughter.
Skye was indeed shocked. She had lived in an orphanage as long as she could remember, and the two foster families before and after were only middle class. In her short seven or eight years of life, she had only seen such mansions on TV.
However, it was just a shock, and there was no happy expression on Skye's face. Perhaps she thought that she would be returned soon, just like a piece of goods that no one wanted...
Eric didn't know what his adopted daughter was thinking. He excitedly took Skye around the villa and told her where the study was, where the entertainment room was, and where the dining room was...
"Look at this! This is the honor of our Lansher family! Oh, by the way, from now on, your last name will be Lansher! Skye Lansher!" Eric's tone was very serious, and he said very carefully She passed on her surname, but Skye had no idea. She had already been attracted by what she saw in front of her.
This is the largest living room in the villa, covering an area of over 300 square meters. Eric built a miniature maglev train line here.
The rails are only a palm wide, but they extend throughout the entire living room. Sometimes they run straight, sometimes they circle up, sometimes they dive down, and finally they are linked together to form a closed ring that fills up the entire living room. On the railway track, a small train was speeding past, so fast that it was almost an afterimage.
"This is the Lanshere family's contribution to the entire world, the maglev train!" Eric walked to Skye and gently put his hand on her shoulder. "This model is completely powered by solar energy. In theory, this car can last forever. Run non-stop for seventy years until the material completely ages.”
"Can it seat people?" This was the first thing Skye said after seeing Eric, which made Eric very happy. Sure enough, dealing with such a slightly autistic child attracted her attention. is the best way!
"I'm afraid not. It's too small and too fast. No one can sit on it safely." Eric squatted down and pointed at the speeding train, "Its speed can reach Mach 2 at its fastest. Faster than a bullet!"
Skye suddenly showed a disappointed expression. She didn't understand the concept of Mach 2. She only knew that this thing was just a decoration. She could only look at it but not touch it...
Eric saw his adopted daughter's expression and said hurriedly: "Skye, don't worry, we are already building two real maglev train lines, which will be open to traffic in more than three years! In the future, these lines will be built all over the United States and all over the world. If you build a train, the speed of airplane travel will be second!”
Skye pursed his lips and said nothing.
Eric raised his eyebrows. It seemed that his adopted daughter had closed her heart very well.
"Okay, Skye, on the first day we meet, I want to give you a meeting gift. Tell me, what do you want most?"
Skye still ignored him and just stared at the speeding train in a daze.
Eric frowned, this is not possible, there is no way to communicate at all! He forced Skye's shoulders 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 even more, revealing this infinite desire and fear.
"You don't have to be afraid. I won't blame you. No orphan would miss his parents." Eric stroked her forehead and tucked the hair behind her ears behind her ears. "I know where your parents are!"
Eric's words rang in Skye's ears like a ground-breaking shock, making her tremble all over. She grabbed Eric's arm tightly with her two small hands, her lips trembled a few times, and she wanted to speak but did not say anything.
"I'm sorry, Skye, your parents are very special, so I can't tell you right now. All you need to know is that they are still alive!" Eric stretched out a hand and picked up Skye, her little body seemed to have no energy. any weight.
"Well, how about we make an agreement? You are eight years old this year, and in ten years, when you become an adult, how about I tell you the news about your parents?"
"Ten years?!" Skye raised her fist and almost hit 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! You have to be an adult at least before you have enough strength to go find them! So, ten years, is there any problem?" Ari Clark smiled and pressed Skye's little fist down.
"Okay, you must tell me when it's my eighteenth birthday!" Skye's little eyes were full of expectation and determination.
"Of course, I keep my word! But there are conditions!"
Skye's body stiffened instantly, "What? Conditions?"
Eric's lips couldn't help but curl up, "How about this, you have to take the initiative to say ten words to me every day for these ten years, how about that?"
"Ten sentences a day?" Skye's eyes widened again. She never expected that Eric would make such a request.
"Of course, ten sentences a day, three hundred sentences a month. Even if I'm not here, this number has to be accumulated. It must be enough for three hundred sentences every month, and you must take the initiative to say it to me, how about it?" Eric His expression is like a fox.
Skye clenched her fists tightly, tilted her head and stared at him. After looking at him for a long time, she finally let go of her hand weakly, "Okay, ten sentences, ten sentences!"
Eric suddenly laughed, carried Skye to a spacious bedroom on the second floor, and placed her on the princess bed, "Let's do this for today, have a good sleep, and we will buy you some clothes early tomorrow morning. And , you can just call me Eric, of course, if you are willing, I have no objection to calling me father!"
"Okay," Skye hesitated, "Eric."
Eric smiled nonchalantly, turned around 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 slender hair lay quietly in his hand, "Now, go and try it!"
…
When the villa was first built, Eric asked the engineers to design a nuclear defense project underground. This is a very common practice among American wealthy people.
The entire nuclear defense project is as big as a football field and was transformed by Eric into a research and experiment center. The hundred or so Hydra researchers he brought back from the Arctic are now hidden there.
What is special is that this nuclear defense project has no entrance or exit.
The only place that can be accessed is in Eric's study.
The underground of this study room is made of steel plates up to two meters thick. Eric stood in the study room and gently raised his hand towards the ground. The steel plates suddenly seemed to melt and collapsed into a narrow passage.
Hahaha, I have finally arranged a daughter for the protagonist. What a blessing it is to have a daughter... Well, I won't say any more. I'm going to make milk powder for my girl...
