(The next chapter is updated at 3:30, the leader takes the exam today and wants to pick her up at another school in the district...)

Xu Le carefully stretched out his finger and touched the robot arm facing his face. His fingertips were immediately covered with dust. The surface of the three-section alloy finger at the top of the robot arm also showed its original color, slightly shining with black light, but the black light was a little dim. I don’t know who was put here by this mecha shrouded in dust for many years, it was like a sword quietly waiting for his master, although it was covered with dust but immortal.

The cold touch was transmitted from his fingertips to his brain. Xu Le let out a gentle breath, his eyes filled with the excitement of forcibly suppressed. This was the first time he had seen a real mecha with his own eyes, and it was so close that it was within reach. The moment he touched it with his fingers, he was even worried that this mecha would come alive by himself.

Of course, Xu Le has seen many pictures of mechas in the library's related journals and magazines. On the top of the hill tree a month ago, he had also seen eleven newest black mechas besieging Uncle Feng alone, but in the end he could not compare to the shock brought by the touch. This is the most powerful melee weapon of the federal military, which is often only present in the fantasy of ordinary federal teenagers. Xu Le looked at this shabby mecha excitedly, but found that this mecha was not only old, but also particularly clumsy in style, but because of its height that was about to touch the ceiling, it showed a little deterrent force. The weapon loading system on the mecha had long been stripped off, and the connection part of the alloy components had also been damaged. I don't know if it could move.

Xu Le found a nameplate somewhere on the inside of the mechanical legs of this worn-out mecha, wiped off the dust, stared at the words written on it, and was a little confused about when the Federation had produced this type of mecha. Little Xigua, who had been quiet, held his hands, also stretched her head curiously, looked at it and said, "Brother, M02."

M02, the first generation of the Federal 37 Constitutional Calendar, is a semi-finished product, but the subsequent mecha design basically extended the idea of ​​this model, including the most advanced M52 series mechas in the Federal military, which should be considered its disciples. Xu Le raised his head and looked at the shabby mecha and shouted, but he didn't expect that he would have the chance to see this legendary antique.

"It's broken." Xiao Xigua noticed the excitement and eagerness in Xu Le's eyes, and carefully reminded her, "It's recycled."

Xu Le scratched his head and laughed, feeling that his impulse at this moment was unreasonable. He forced himself to suppress his idea of ​​continuing to watch the mecha. After all, compared with his own interests, solving the problem of Xiao Xigua is the most important thing at this time. He held Xiao Xigua's hand and continued to walk to the other side of the room. He pulled out the toolbox on the wall, removed the fixing screws of the air conditioning passage, and drilled in. He did not look back and said directly: "Wait for brother here, don't run around."

This garbage recycling cabin or waste storage cabin is very remote. I am afraid that no one will come here in many years. Xu Le is not worried about Xiao Xigua's safety. However, shortly after he got into the pipe, he crawled back in a gray face, squatted in front of Xiao Xigua with breathlessness, and said unhappy: "Why don't you remind me, I can't climb over at all!"

Yes, although there are no monitoring electronic instruments installed in the air conditioning pipeline, the pipeline itself is extremely small at some connections, and adults cannot pass through it. Perhaps only children like Xiao Xigua can pass through these pipelines and freely crawl around in the spacecraft. Xiao Xigua looked at the dust on Xu Le's face and covered her lips and burst into laughter.

...

...

The idea of ​​finding Xiaoguayu's room to confirm the truth was shattered. Although Xu Le learned a messy skill with a random practitioner for a long time, he did not have the confidence to be a spy in a high-tech spacecraft. Perhaps because of his unconscious little selfishness, in the next few days, he became quiet, just playing in the room with Xiaoguayu and eating those synthetic beef that was not bad, but just a bit monotonous. Xiaoguayu is really a very well-behaved child. Xu Le had no children's books or even TV in that remote and quiet room, but she was not noisy and boring, just sat quietly on the bed, listening to Xu Le telling stories, or she told stories to Xu Le.

"Little Xigua, don't you think it's boring to stay with me?" Xu Le seemed to have nothing strange these days, but in fact, his worries became stronger and stronger. What should I do with this little girl who suddenly appeared beside him like an elf? Although the journey is long, there is always a day when I arrive in the capital star circle. I can't take her away under the noses of so many people. Moreover...Little Xigua's family must also be worried about her. The question is, is her family really trustworthy?

"As long as you don't play the piano or draw, that's fine." Xiao Xigua looked at Xu Le's eyes and nodded seriously. Perhaps in the heart of this little girl, doing nothing these days is the greatest happiness.

Xu Le shrugged, not very understanding of the children's thinking patterns. Little Xigua felt the joy of doing nothing, but he always felt something strange in his heart. The long-term space navigation was surrounded by quiet, eternal silence. No matter how beautiful the beautiful space scenery was, it turned into a boring repetition at this moment. Xu Le looked at a dim star far away outside the window and suddenly understood that the strange feeling in his heart was because he was longing for something.

...

...

Still covered in dust, he climbed from the pipes in the 32 cleaning area for a long time before Xu Le climbed to the waste storage compartment with a thick metal door. He had no time to be proud of his memory and did not get lost in the pipes as dense as spider webs in the spacecraft. He couldn't wait to lift the military green oil cloth again, allowing the worn-out abandoned old mecha to appear in front of him.

At this moment, Xu Le confirmed that his judgment was correct. In the past few days, he had been eager to return here, longing to see this shabby mecha again. At this moment, his whole body was filled with satisfaction and vague excitement. He longed to return here, not because he had a strong desire to control the mecha deep in his heart, although this was the wish of most young men in the Federation, but... he wanted to fix it.

He passed the first round of examinations for the Ministry of Defense's mechanics officer. Although he could no longer continue this path, his life ideals, or the interest deeply embedded in his mind, never diminished. Since he was very young, Xu Le had a strong interest in repairing things. After following Uncle Feng for four years, this interest did not decrease, but became stronger and stronger. In the mine operation room outside the capital of Hexi Prefecture, in the repair shop in the fourth block of Xianglan Avenue, whenever a teenager saw the electrical appliances brought by neighbors, such as the crystal screen TV with bad spots, the electric axles that were difficult to adjust, and all kinds of damaged life chips, he was as excited and impulsive as a vulture seeing rotten meat, and he had to repair these broken things as soon as possible.

Just like he saw this messy mecha at this time, it was just that this mecha... was different from anything he had repaired before.

Xu Le was a man who was walking. Since he had climbed through the pipe and came here, he naturally would not leave like this. He had no confidence in how this broken mecha would look like. He didn't even know whether he could connect the broken three-section metal finger, but he still started to do it. Before he started, he maintained good working habits. After turning over the dusty surface of the damaged mecha for a long time, he finally found a vacuum plastic bag. He screamed in surprise and confirmed that as the book said, the bag contained the instructions of the M02 mecha.

Holding the manual, Xu Le looked at it with relish, from standing to leaning against the wall, and finally sitting down. The starlight outside the spacecraft remained unchanged, and his eyes remained unchanged. He read all the parameter values ​​and component construction patterns seriously and greedily, and devoted himself to it. He didn't know how long it had passed.

When he was in Donglin District, the mechanic Master Feng did not teach him any knowledge about mechas. Xu Le once expressed his protest and ridicule indignantly. He went through hardships to find a mecha central control chip in the garbage dump, but Uncle Feng said that he would not repair it... Now Xu Le naturally knows that the boss is not an ordinary person, and it is impossible for him to have no knowledge of mechas. It is just that he wants to ask the boss about technical issues, which has become an impossible thing. He can only immerse himself in the boring instruction manual and keep learning.

After a long time, Xu Le finally put down the manual, lowered his head and thought about it seriously for a long time, and then began to get up and look for the tools and materials he needed in the waste storage compartment. At the same time, he looked up from time to time to observe where the shabby M02 was really seriously damaged.

His eyes flew over the shoulders of the mecha, and suddenly stopped at a hole in the ceiling outside the cabin door, and smiled with great ashamedness. The little girl's head drilled out of the hole, and her black hair was covered with dust, looking very pitiful. She looked at Xu Le on the ground and said, "Brother, I'm hungry."
