Ling Cage: I come from Hisakawa

Chapter 68 Genetic Testing, Occasional Errors
"Is today April Fool's Day?" Charles looked up at the calendar, a sneer playing on his lips.

He couldn't believe that Morgan would treat him so dismissively.

That's utterly disrespectful to him!

No one else knows who his maternal grandfather is, but surely he himself knows?

His maternal grandfather was the lord of Grey City!
When disaster struck the old world, his grandfather came to the lighthouse like a hero and transformed it into humanity's last home.

Judging by his age, his maternal grandfather is at least eighty years old.

How old is Dustman1012?
He looked to be about the same age as him, around twenty-four or twenty-five years old. How could he possibly be his beloved maternal grandfather?
impossible! Absolutely impossible!
Morgan sighed deeply to Charles.

He had guessed Charles's reaction before he even said those words.

“Charles, whether you can accept it or not, that man is your grandfather. You were only three years old when he left the lighthouse, so it’s normal that you don’t remember him.”

"And he didn't look as young back then, so you wouldn't recognize him at all."

Morgan spoke slowly.

"Lord City Lord, do you mean my grandfather is getting younger and younger?" Charles chuckled.

He said in a deep voice, "I only knew you had heart disease, I didn't know you also had Alzheimer's!"

Morgan frowned.

This child is getting more and more rebellious.

He sighed and said, "Come with me."

After saying that, he left the piano bench and walked to the desk.

Charles followed, frowning.

Morgan opened a drawer in his desk and took out a photo album.

“Twenty years ago, in order to ensure the survival of the lighthouse, I promulgated three laws.” He handed the photo album to Charles.

“The Three Laws have severed the bonds of kinship between people. As the city lord, I must take the lead in upholding the Three Laws, so I haven’t shown these photos to you and Jingnan.”

Charles stared at the photo album, stunned.

The album cover was faded and looked very worn, clearly indicating that it was quite old.

“Take it!” Morgan urged.

Charles took the photo album, looking hesitant.

Why are you showing me photos?

That won't do.
“Open it!” Morgan urged again.

Charles gritted his teeth: "Open it if you want, don't try to be mysterious."

He opened the photo album.

sieve--

A familiar yet unfamiliar figure stands in the center of the photograph, his strong arms outstretched to the sides, embracing a young man with blond hair and a young woman with blond hair.

The young man is Morgan.

The young woman is Morgan's wife, and also Charles and Jingnan's mother, Mayway.

And the person who was holding them
It was none other than Dustman1012!

Charles's pupils dilated violently.

"Impossible!" he exclaimed.

rustling-

Charles flipped through the photo album quickly.

The album was mostly filled with photos of Morgan and Mayweather together, as well as photos of him and Jingnan when they were children—photos he had never seen before.

But most importantly, there really is a person who looks exactly like Dustman1012, and has a very close relationship with his parents.

Time flies quickly in the photos.

That man went from being young and handsome to becoming mature and steady, and later he even grew a thick beard.
Bang!
Charles closed the photo album.

His eyes were filled with confusion as he muttered, "How is this possible? Wasn't Grandpa missing?"

“The lighthouse is only so big, where could he possibly disappear to?” Morgan sighed softly.

"Now is not the time for you to understand those things. All you need to know is that the 'Dustman 1012' you mentioned is your maternal grandfather. Don't cause him any more trouble in the future. That's enough!"

Charles was completely bewildered by the shock. He clutched the photo album so tightly that his fingernails turned white.

“Professor Grey saved the Lighthouse from the catastrophe that destroyed the Old World, and your mother May and I both deeply admire him.” Morgan gazed at Charles. “I don’t know what Professor Grey went through on the ground. He lost his memories after the catastrophe and his body reverted to its youth.”

"But he can activate the gravity body and use the gravity body's triple biometric recognition."

"He is undoubtedly Mr. Gray!"

Morgan said firmly.

After speaking with Bai Yuetian, he summoned Gordon and Elon, who had accompanied Bai Yuetian to the council hall, to learn more about the situation. He then had Jessica examine the gravity body.

Dustman 1012 is the first city lord, Gray; this is their common conclusion.

The biometric identification of gravity bodies is very rigorous.

Iris scanning, voiceprint identification, and 3D face recognition—these triple verification procedures combined would prevent even a clone from passing.

It can only be Gray himself!
Charles stood there, his mind blank, every muscle in his body tense.

"You can go back."

Morgan emphasized, "Professor Gray has not yet regained his memory. He should not tell anyone beforehand that he is returning to the lighthouse, including Jingnan, to avoid causing any trouble."

Charles, holding the photo album, slowly turned around.

“There’s one more thing,” Morgan’s voice came from behind him.

Charles stopped walking.

"The fact that the lighthouse became humanity's last hope is entirely thanks to Professor Gray. He shouldn't just be a commoner, both morally and logically."

Morgan stared at Charles's retreating figure.

He slowly began, "Genetic testing can occasionally produce minor errors."

"0609, what are you howling about?"

4068 lifted the curtain and poked his head in to look: "Making such a commotion, aren't you afraid the priests will whip you?"

"Get lost, you jinx!" 0609 wiped away her tears.

4068 entered the house, followed closely by Bai Yuetian.

Radios, CDs, celebrity posters—old-world items were everywhere. Newspapers were pasted on the walls, and a large, old-fashioned television set sat in the corner.

Everything has a vintage feel to it.

It's quite an achievement to gather so many items on a lighthouse.

"I'm crying right now, what are you doing here?" 0609 looked at 4068 with disdain.

4068 asked, puzzled, "Can't I care about you?"

At this moment, 0609 saw the white moonlight.

The look of disgust vanished, replaced by a grateful smile.

"Did I disturb you?" he asked.

Bai Yuetian shook his head, his gaze falling on 0609's hands.

0609 was clutching a cell phone, and judging from its appearance, it was the same cell phone that 0609 had brought back from the ground.

"Is the phone fixed?" Bai Yuetian asked, puzzled.

"What exactly is on your phone? I heard from 4068 that you are the oldest among the dust-loving people who have gone to the fields?"

Ground missions are fraught with danger.

The common people are unarmed and are most vulnerable to death when they encounter danger.

The young Dustman was agile and penniless, but he was willing to take a gamble to contribute.

However, Dust People like 0609, who are quite old and already clumsy, almost never participate in ground missions.

0609 is a special case.

For the last ground mission, 0609 wasn't originally on the conscription list, but he volunteered to go because the core ecological area was relatively prosperous and there was a chance he could get his phone repaired.

He risked his life to get his phone repaired.

0609 nodded and said in a low voice, "It's nothing special, just some memories."

His face couldn't hide his joy.

"Would it be convenient to share?" Bai Yuetian asked curiously.
