At half past three in the next chapter, the leader has an exam today and is going to pick her up from a school in another district Xu Le carefully stretched out his fingers and touched the mechanical arm facing his face, and the fingertips were immediately covered with dust, and the surface of the three-segmented alloy finger at the top of the mechanical arm also showed its original color, slightly glowing with black light, but the black light was a little dim.
This mecha shrouded in dust, I don't know who put it here, and it has been left for many years, like a sword quietly waiting for its master, although it is dusty but immortal.
The cold touch was transmitted back to his brain from his fingertips, and Xu Le sighed softly, his eyes filled with forcibly suppressed excitement.
This was the first time he had seen a real mecha with his own eyes when he was so big, and it was so close that it was within reach, and the moment he touched it with his fingers, he even worried that this mecha would come back to life on its own.
Of course, in the relevant periodicals and magazines in the library, Xu Le has seen a lot of pictures of mechas, and on the top of the hill tree a month ago, he had also seen eleven of the latest black mecha besieging Uncle Feng alone, but after all, it was not as shocking as being able to touch it at this time, this is the most powerful melee weapon of the federal military, and it often only exists in the fantasy of ordinary federal teenagers.
Xu Le looked at this dilapidated mecha excitedly, only to find that this mecha was not only old, but also extremely clumsy in style, just because the height that was about to touch the ceiling showed a little bit of deterrence.
The weapon loading system on the mecha has long been stripped away, and the joints of the alloy components have been broken, and I don't know if it can still move.
Xu Le found the nameplate somewhere on the inside of the mechanical leg of this dilapidated mecha, wiped the dust off it, and looked at the words written on it in a daze, a little unsure when the Federation had ever produced this type of mecha.
The little watermelon, which had been quiet and let him hold his hand, also stretched out his little head curiously, looked at it twice, and said, "Brother, 02." ” 02, the first generation of mecha in the 37th constitutional calendar of the Federation is a semi-finished product, but the subsequent mecha design basically inherits the idea of this model, including the 52 series mecha, which is now the most advanced in the federal military, and it should be regarded as its apprentices.
Xu Le raised his head and sighed as he looked at this dilapidated mecha, he didn't expect that he would have the opportunity to see this legendary antique.
"It's broken."
The little watermelon noticed the excitement and eagerness in Xu Le's eyes, and cautiously reminded, "It's recovered." ” Xu Le scratched his head and laughed, he also felt that his impulse at this time was a little unreasonable.
He forcibly suppressed his desire to continue watching the mecha, after all, compared to his own interests, solving the problem of the little watermelon was the most important thing at this time.
He took the little watermelon's hand, continued to walk to the other side of the room, pulled out the toolbox on the wall, removed the fixing screws of the air conditioning channel, got in, and didn't look back, and said directly: "Wait for my brother here, don't run around." ” This garbage recycling pod or waste storage pod is very remote, but I am afraid that no matter how many teenagers will come, Xu Le is not worried about the safety of the little watermelon.
However, soon after he got into the pipe, he crawled back in disgrace, squatted in front of the little watermelon out of breath, and said angrily: "Why don't you remind me, I can't climb over at all" Yes, although there are no monitoring electronic devices in the air conditioning pipes, the pipes themselves are extremely small at some of the junctions, and adults cannot pass through them at all, and probably only children like small watermelons can pass through these pipes and crawl freely around the spaceship.
The little watermelon looked at the dust on Xu Le's face, covered her lips and laughed.
The idea of finding the little watermelon room to confirm the truth of the matter was shattered, and although Xu Le had learned the mess of things with the mechanic for a long time, he was not confident that he could be a spy in a high-tech spaceship.
Perhaps because of some kind of unconscious selfishness of his, he became quiet for the next few days, just playing in the room with the little watermelon, eating the synthetic beef that was not actually unpalatable, but a little monotonous.
Little Watermelon is really a very well-behaved child, Xu Le's remote and quiet room has no children's books, not even a TV, but she is not noisy and boring, just sitting quietly on the bed, listening to Xu Le tell stories, or she tells Xu Le stories.
"Little watermelon, don't you think it's boring to stay with me" Xu Le doesn't seem to be anything unusual these days, but in fact, the worry in his heart is getting stronger and stronger, this little girl who suddenly appeared next to her like an elf, what should she do with it Although the journey is long, there will always be a day when she arrives at the star circle of the capital, and it is impossible for her to take her away under the noses of so many people, and Xiao Watermelon's family must be very worried about her, the question is, is her family really trustworthy "As long as you don't play the piano and don't draw, it's fine."
The little watermelon looked at Xu Le's eyes and nodded very seriously, probably in this little girl's heart, doing nothing these days is the greatest happiness in itself.
Xu Le shrugged his shoulders, he really didn't understand the thinking patterns of the children, the little watermelon was feeling the joy of doing nothing, but he always felt that something strange in his heart.
The long space voyage was surrounded by silence, eternal silence, and no matter how beautiful the space scenery was, it became a boring repetition at this moment, Xu Le looked at a faint star in the distance outside the window, and suddenly understood that the strange feeling in his heart was because he was longing for something.
Still covered in dust, it took a long time to climb from the pipes in the 32 clean area, Xu Le climbed to the waste storage tank with a heavy alloy door, he didn't have time to be proud of his memory, and he didn't get lost in the dense cobwebbed pipes in the spaceship, so he couldn't wait to lift the army-green oilcloth again, and let the dilapidated abandoned old-fashioned mecha appear in front of him.
At this moment, Xu Le confirmed that his judgment was correct.
He'd been longing to get back here for the past few days, longing to see this dilapidated mecha again, and his whole body was filled with satisfaction and faint excitement.
He longed to come back here and see this mech, not because he had a strong desire to control the mecha in his heart, although this was the wish of most teenagers in the Federation, but because he wanted to fix it.
He passed the first round of the Ministry of Defense mechanic non-commissioned officer exam, and although he could no longer continue on this path, his ideals of life, or rather the kind of interest that was deeply rooted in his mind, never waned.
From a very young age, Xu Le had a strong interest in repairing things, and after following Uncle Feng for four years, this interest did not decrease, but became stronger and stronger.
In the pit workshop on the outskirts of Hexi Prefecture, in the repair shop in the fourth block of Xianglan Avenue, whenever the boy saw the electrical appliances brought by his neighbors, such as the crystal screen TV with broken spots, the electric axle that was difficult to adjust, and all kinds of damaged life chips, he was as excited and impulsive as a vulture seeing carrion, and wanted to repair these broken things as soon as possible.
Just like when he saw this tattered mecha at this time, only this mech was not quite like anything he had repaired before.
Xu Le is a person who gets up and walks, and since he has climbed through the pipeline and come here, he naturally will not leave like this.
He didn't have the slightest confidence in what he could do with this tattered mecha, and he didn't even know if he could connect the broken three-segmented metal fingers, but he still started to do it.
Before he started, he maintained good working habits, rummaged through the dusty and broken mecha surface for a long time, and finally found a vacuum plastic bag, he whispered in surprise, confirming that as the book said, the bag contained the instructions for the 02 mecha.
Holding the manual, Xu Le looked at it with relish, and his posture changed from standing to leaning against the wall, and finally to sitting down.
The starlight outside the spaceship remained the same, and so did his gaze, carefully and greedily reading all the parameter values and component construction patterns, and devoting himself to it, not knowing how much time had passed.
When he was in Donglin District, Uncle Feng, a mechanic, did not teach him any knowledge about mecha, Xu Le also once protested and ridiculed indignantly, he worked hard to find a mecha central control chip in the garbage dump, but Uncle Feng said that he would not repair Xu Le today, naturally knowing that the boss is not an ordinary person, and it is impossible to have no understanding of mecha, but he wants to ask the boss about technical problems, it has become an impossible thing, He was the only one who immersed himself in the boring manuals and kept learning.
After a long time, Xu Le finally put down the manual, lowered his head and thought seriously for a long time, and then began to get up and look for the tools and materials he needed in the waste storage tank, and at the same time, he looked up from time to time to observe where the really serious damage of the dilapidated 02 was.
His gaze swept over the mech's shoulder, and suddenly stopped at a hole in the ceiling outside the hatch, and smiled in shame.
The little girl's head drilled out of the hole, her black hair was covered with dust, she looked pitiful, looked at Xu Le on the ground and said, "Brother, I'm hungry." ” Xu Le pushed the toolbox on the wall back into place, and said with a smile: "Then I'll go to the restaurant to cook first." ” :
