Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Qin Lun vaguely remembered that he once had such a copper key. It was a piece of copper he picked up from the garbage. It was so dirty that it was impossible to tell what it was originally a part of.  Qin Lun used the little free time he had to polish this piece of copper until it had the prototype of a key, and then used the picked wire to rub out the lock teeth bit by bit.  His purpose is very simple, which is to use this copper key to open the iron lock on his sister's neck.  But he was very careful and never dared to let his adoptive parents, Mr. and Mrs. Foster, discover his secret.  The biological parents of the Qin Lun brothers and sisters were killed in a car accident, and then they were adopted by the Fosters.  The Fosters are a pair of European and American immigrants. When they first adopted the Qin Lun brothers and sisters, Qin Lun, who has a superior IQ, keenly noticed that they had an ulterior motive.  But the reason why he did not reject the Fosters at that time was because he thought they were just coveting the orphan relief funds from the Welfare Department, but he did not expect that they were not good people at all.  After the Qin Lun brothers and sisters were adopted, they did live a life without worries about food and clothing in the early days.  However, when the child welfare agency staff gave up observing, the Fosters finally revealed their true colors.  The nightmare of the Qin Lun brothers and sisters began. The two brothers and sisters were abused one after another. In order to control them, the couple usually only let one of them free, while the other was tied up in the basement like a dog.  If it were just like this, Qin Lun might continue to endure the humiliation and survive, waiting for his sister to grow up before he could find a way to escape.  However, this idea was shattered one night after overhearing the Fosters' bedside conversation.  The couple didn¡¯t have much conversation that night, but with Qin Lun¡¯s IQ, he could figure out a lot of the content by himself.  The Fosters turned out to be a pair of professional liars. They had used false identities to adopt orphans more than once.  They travel around the Huaxia District, and every time they adopt a pair of orphans, they stay quietly for a while.  When the welfare agency gives up tracking and observing, they will kill the orphans and then leave the place on the pretext of job transfer.  This process can take anywhere from a few months to a year or two.  Unlike human traffickers who resell children, the orphans adopted by the Fosters will eventually be brutally killed.  Because their methods were covert, neither the police nor the child welfare agency noticed anything until they adopted Qin Lun's brother and sister.  The real reason why the Fosters did this is still unknown.  It was not until Qin Lun entered a severe punishment prison that he got some guesses from a psychology expert. This was also the reason why Qin Lun started to study psychology.  In order to open up his defenses, the psychology expert carefully analyzed the Fosters¡¯ behavioral patterns and got some guesses from them.  The expert believes that the couple named Foster may have been orphans in their childhood and suffered severe psychological trauma.  This kind of trauma may be caused by being bullied by other orphans, so as an adult, he has always hated being an orphan.  Every time they adopt a pair of orphans, they will imagine them to be the peers who bullied them in childhood, and then vent their resentment on the orphans, and use this to take revenge on the welfare institutions and orphanages that did not rescue them.  This purpose was indeed realized after the death of the Fosters.  As more and more of the Fosters¡¯ aliases and crimes were exposed, almost all of the child welfare agencies and orphanages that had handed over the orphans to the Fosters were trashed by the local media.  Since Qin Lun heard some of the conversation between the Fosters that night, he knew that there was not much time left for his brother and sister, because investigators from the local child welfare agency had not visited for a long time.  Qin Lun began to polish the copper blocks all night long. The thin wires and the sharp teeth of the keys wore his palms again and again.  The young man's blood seeped into the copper key bit by bit as it was polished, leaving many tiny stains that looked like rust spots.  These stains are exactly the same as the "rust spots" on the copper key in Harry's hand. The blond boy had the same experience as Qin Lun.  Although Harry¡¯s key is not to rescue his sister, but to liberate the black slaves in the manor, the actual effect is the same.  In the era when the Qin Lun brothers and sisters lived, he only needed to escape from the Fosters' house and find the police station to be rescued.  But the Harry brothers and sisters are different. In their era and region, simply escaping is not enough.  Hundreds of years ago, the United States was still a large colony. There were no social welfare institutions to provide justice to orphaned brothers and sisters.  What's more, the Wilson Manor is rich and powerful. If they don't destroy it first, the Harry brothers and sisters still won't be able to escape.  "Brother, I'm late!" Elaine touched the copper key with a confused look on her face.He shed big tears and buried his head in Harry's chest, his shoulders shaking slightly.  "It's not too late, I hope you can come back safely from London!" Harry patted Elaine on the back happily, but Qin Lun felt something strange deep inside his body.  He had a feeling that the words of the little girl in Harry's arms seemed to mean something else.  Just when Qin Lun was thinking about that sentence, there was a fierce quarrel outside the living room door.  Harry and his sister, who were hugging each other, separated as if they were electrocuted. Harry looked towards the door in panic.  "I told you that I have no ulterior relationship with Diana!" The door to the living room was pushed open violently, and a deep male voice with suppressed anger came from outside the door.  "Haha, do you expect me to believe it? Thomas!" Another sharp female voice sounded from behind the man.  "Humph, so what, don't think I don't know you are in London" A sarcastic sneer sounded in the man's mouth, but it stopped immediately because he had already seen the Harry brothers and sisters in the living room.  Following Harry¡¯s gaze, Qin Lun saw the long-famous Wilson couple.  Thomas Wilson is a middle-aged man about forty years old, with a tall build and neatly trimmed beard. He looks like a very dignified middle-aged gentleman.  Kayla Wilson is a fat, middle-aged woman with a fur scarf on her hands. Her face is full of flesh, her eyes are small, and there is a sarcoma on her nose.  Not only is her appearance ugly, but she also lacks the temperament of a lady. If she takes off her expensive clothes and replaces them with burlap, she will look more like an ugly village woman setting up a stall at a vegetable market.  Although Qin Lun has never met Diana, since the charming Susan looks very similar to her, he can fully imagine what choice Sir Wilson will make.  No wonder Sir Wilson has been married to her for so many years and has no real descendants.  It was hard for Qin Lun to imagine what kind of mood Thomas Wilson, who looked quite heroic in appearance, had to endure in order to be content with her in bed.  This also shows what kind of embarrassing situation Wilson was in before he was forced to marry the daughter of a businessman.  "Get out!" The two couples who saw the Harry brothers and sisters looked indifferent, not at all embarrassed by their children exposing the scandal, as if in their eyes, the Harry brothers and sisters were just a pair of pets.  "Yes, father!" Harry lowered his head obediently and pulled his sister towards the door.  "Bang!" As soon as the two children walked up to Wilson, they saw a sneer on the middle-aged man's face, and slapped Harry to the ground without warning.  Qin Lun's vision was spinning with Harry, and he felt furious in his heart. He even felt like the slap was slapped on his face.  "Brother!" Elaine cried and threw herself on Harry, leaning her head on the boy's shoulder.  From this angle that no one could see, there were no tears on Elaine's face at all, but her expression was so gloomy that it seemed like water was about to drip.  Like Qin Lun, Qin Mei seemed to have been opened up to the darkest corner of her heart at this time, and began to involuntarily put herself into the role of Elaine Wilson.  "Next time you let me see you with your sister without consent, I will break both of your legs!" Thomas Wilson's cold words made both brother and sister stiffen.  "Hey, what is this?" Keira Wilson's tone was calmer than before. She was not angry at all because Harry was beaten. She picked up a copper key from the ground and asked the man with a frown.  "The key you gave him?" "Huh? Let me see!" Looking at Harry's face that instantly turned white, the middle-aged gentleman raised his eyebrows and took the crudely made key from his wife's hand.  The copper key, "I didn't give it to him. I don't know where the little bastard stole it from. It seems I have to ask Parker." The man walked to the corner of the living room and pulled a thick rope behind the curtain.  Hearing the summoning bell, Old Parker came quickly, took the copper key from the man's hand and examined it carefully.  At this time, the Harry brothers and sisters were so scared that they shrank into a ball, trembling all over as they looked at the three people in front of them.  "This is" Old Parker's expression suddenly changed. He took off a bunch of keys from his waist and compared them, his expression becoming increasingly ugly.  "Master, this seems to be the key to the 'barn' of the manor!" After a while, Butler Parker finally wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said hesitantly.  "Barn? Which barn?" The middle-aged gentleman's face also changed, and he stared at the old butler fiercely.  "It'sit's the barn where slaves were kept!" Old Parker lowered his head lower and lower, and he obviously knew that this was a terrible mistake.  "Pa!" Thomas Wilson slapped the old housekeeper hard on the face this time, knocking him staggering and five times.Earthworm-like red marks quickly swelled on the old man's face.  "You old good-for-nothing, this little bastard has copied such a key, and you don't even know yet!" The cold light in the man's eyes almost turned into reality, and he roared, "Go, call the manor's supervisor team to assemble, it's time  Clean up those niggas again!" "Yes, sir!" Old Parker almost rolled out of the living room.  "Haha, it seems that you are so obsessed with that little bitch Diana that you don't even know that the black slaves in the manor are going to be violent!" Fat woman Keira covered her mouth, laughing so hard that she shrank into a ball.  Brother and sister Harry from the group showed a sneer.  "However, I didn't expect that my good son actually still has this ability. He is much better than his previous 'brothers'!"
