Chapter 19: Seeing the Source of Tai for the First Time
Chapter 19 First Meeting with Tai Zhiyuan
He gently knocked on the door of the room, but there was no reaction inside. Xu Le looked at the green indicator light beside the door in confusion, and confirmed that the boy was still in the room, and the sound of knocking on the door was increased, but he still did not respond. Xu Le couldn't help but feel nervous. Something happened to the person and fell into a coma, right? He suddenly thought that the sound insulation materials in the h1 area were extremely high-end. Could it be that even the sound of knocking on the door could not be transmitted?
He frowned and went straight to his room, took out the backpack he had hidden in the deepest part of the storage box, and walked back to the door of another room.
The things in his backpack were scattered to the ground by him, and the collision of metal tools and the components and debris with the elastic ground made a strange sound. Xu Le did not pause at all and began to pick up the tools to disassemble the lock. Every time he practiced in the room, he always habitually locked the door, knowing that the lock of the door was a retro structure, not a common sense door in the federal area. If the person inside did not open it, it would be difficult for people outside to open it.
Fortunately, Xu Le and Li Wei and the others were mixed up since childhood. Although they had not done too many evil things, they still did a lot of things to find an empty room on Zhonglou Street. They had their own way to unlock locks. Later, they studied with Uncle Feng Yu for four years. Anything about metal structures seemed to be difficult for him. He was born with a certain keen ability to judge and solve spatial structures in this regard.
The sounds of the machine spring and the motor kept ringing and stopped, and the self-powered tools were dismantling continuously, making waves of noises, which echoed in the quiet h1 area, making particularly harsh. Xu Le had already sweated coldly on his forehead, and the tools in his hand were constantly replacing them, destroying the complex structures. His worry became stronger and stronger. Because of such a huge movement, the boy in the room could not react at all. It seemed that something really happened to the other party.
With a hiss, the chip's y-group wire was connected, and the last metal three-piece reed of the door lock bounced open. The door of the room shrank into the alloy wall, and a large space that was very similar to the room where Xu Le Ye was staying in. There was also a platform on the distant wall. A black M-series prototype mecha was hung on the platform. More than a dozen data transmission belts and current transmission belts of various colors connected it with the outlet in the wall.
Xu Le did not stay on these familiar scenes for a while, and threw the tool on the ground, and rushed towards the direction of the mecha, because he immediately saw a man with black hair leaning sideways in the mecha's control compartment. From that posture, it can be seen that his body had no strength and should have fallen into a coma.
It seemed to be extremely far away. As Xu Le ran, he came in an instant, just like when he crossed the electronic wall of the Federation, he climbed up like a monkey along the gap of the metal component on the mecha mechanical legs, without taking a regular route at all.
As he climbed into the operating cabin as fast as possible, Xu Le carefully straightened the thin boy. He put his face close to his mouth and nose, pressed his carotid artery slightly, and confirmed that the person's heartbeat and breathing were normal, so he let go of some heart. He thought breathlessly, he probably just fell into a coma and should be easy to deal with, but he didn't understand why this guy suddenly fainted.
He gently patted the boy's face with his palm, and Xu Le shouted anxiously: "Wake up, wake up."
The thin boy's face was very pale. After being patted by Xu Le twice, he shook some unhealthy blush. Xu Le frowned and thought that it was too late to call the school hospital. Moreover, the doctors were afraid that they would not have the authority to enter the H and H1 areas. He looked around and his eyes fell on the fixed belt of the mecha control cabin. Without thinking, he grabbed the middle of the belt with his right hand and groaned. As he felt, the heat in the back of his body suddenly felt, and the strange force spread to his palm with the slight trembling under the skin. He pulled it hard.
With a crisp sound, the super elastic fiber fixing belt that can still fix the driver's body under the high-strength movement of the mecha was broken into two pieces in Xu Le's ordinary hand.
He tied the thin boy to his back with a fixed belt. Xu Le carefully but quickly climbed down the tall mecha, landed on the ground, and rushed out of the door as soon as he touched his feet. He didn't know what disease this guy had, but he fainted for no reason. He didn't dare to be careless at all. He had to send the other party to the hospital as quickly as possible.
...
Xu Le, carrying a thin boy, walked through the room door and ran through the lounge. Two alloy doors leading from H1 to H1 opened. He was extremely worried and anxious and suddenly heard a somewhat strange and familiar weak voice sound behind him.
"Where are you going to take me?"
"Go to the hospital." Xu Le didn't look back and answered subconsciously. Only then did he realize that the person behind him had woken up. He stopped in surprise.
"Let me down." The young man behind him was still weak, but he was still as undeniable as giving orders.
Xu Le was stunned for a moment, unbuttoned the fixing belt on his body, and put the man down. Seeing that the other party's face was still pale and something was wrong, he quickly carried him into the lounge and placed it on the sofa. It was not until this time that Xu Le had time to take a closer look at this face and found that this was a pretty young male student with his eyes still closed tightly, his thin lips were pursed very tightly, as if he was a little painful, and there were two unhealthy light blue under his eye sockets.
This was the first time Xu Le met with Tai Zhiyuan. At that time, Tai Zhiyuan closed his eyes tightly and fell into illness. Therefore, in Xu Le's impression, Tai Zhiyuan was a sick and weak boy who was younger than himself and looked pitiful. This impression has been maintained for many years. No matter what identity Tai Zhiyuan became later, Xu Le has always stubbornly thought so.
"Let's go to the hospital first..." Xu Le looked at him with his eyes closed and suggested with concern.
Tai Zhiyuan slowly opened his eyes, and Xu Le's words came to an abrupt end. He had never thought that a young man's eyes could be so calm, as calm as an old man who had experienced countless years of vicissitudes. Although he still preserved the unique Qingzhan of young people, when Xu Le looked at his eyes, he always subconsciously thought that the other person's eye waves might never tremble.
This is the natural look of looking down at the Federation brought by status, status, knowledge and mentality. This is the peace created by growing up in the largest and oldest family of the Federation since childhood. This is a pair of eyes that only a real big man can have. However, Xu Le didn't understand these at all. He just felt that the other party's eyes were calm and gentle, but without a trace of warmth, exuding an absolutely perfect reserve and pride in kindness.
Xu Le scratched his head, not wanting to think about why this kid's eyes are gentle but also fearful, and said, "What happened?"
...
Tai Zhiyuan didn't expect that he woke up from a coma. The first person he saw was that boy. He silently did not answer. His body has always been bad, his blood sugar is too low, and that problem has not improved. Especially insomnia in recent years, he has become more and more tired day by day. Every night, he must eat the midnight snack carefully prepared by Butler Jin to replenish his energy.
He told Butler Jin not to prepare midnight snacks, because he was used to the boy in the room bringing food to him every day, but he didn't expect that for four days, there was no food left except Xu Le brought a bag of oil cakes the next day. Tai Zhiyuan thought with a headache that he seemed to have become a wild cat fed, and was used to certain things.
Tai Zhiyuan didn't want to deal with the young man in front of him too much, and he didn't even want to meet him. However, he finally met at this moment. He thought even more annoyed that if he had not felt that he had lost to this beginner in mecha operation and made him concentrate on practice and forget about time, he would not have fainted due to his low blood sugar.
It was precisely because of these thoughts that a gap appeared in the demeanor that he could maintain perfectly in front of his subordinates and retainers. He stared at the young student who was concerned about him in front of him and said word by word: "I didn't faint, I just... fell asleep."
Xu Le obviously didn't believe this explanation and laughed out loud: "I haven't woken up after prying the door for so long, unless you are a pig."
Tai Zhiyuan's face was slightly dark. It was unbearable to be called a pig as his identity. After a moment of silence, he said, "My blood sugar is a little low." Then he frowned and said, "You haven't prepared midnight snacks for several days, and that's the reason."
Xu Le has no responsibility or obligation to prepare midnight snacks for the other party. If it were someone else, he would definitely retort, but Xu Le felt that this seemed to be his fault. He was such a person and said sorry with shame.
Although he had actually communicated through paper and pen for a long time, and had spoken in the phone, and had fought in a virtual scene, Xu Le and Tai Zhiyuan actually met for the first time. They were two strangers with extremely different identities and status, so at the beginning, the atmosphere between the scene was a bit awkward and weird. Until Tai Zhiyuan mentioned the word "late skip" that the atmosphere suddenly became familiar and comfortable, just like the building of h1 suddenly turned into a piece of white paper, and the two young people turned into two sentences on white paper.
Xu Le stood up and found a bottle of water and a bag of compressed high-energy biscuits among the piles of scattered things at the door of the room.
With a piece of biscuit and a sip of water, Tai Zhiyuan's spirit was obviously much better. He smiled and looked at Xu Le, then looked at the high-energy biscuits in his hand, and laughed and said, "You seem to be able to find food around you no matter where and when, you are really like a mouse."
Xu Le moved a chair and sat next to the sofa. Seeing that the boy was much more energetic, he felt much more relaxed. He sighed and replied, "There is no way. I am always hungry. If I don't bring some snacks with me, I will never be able to live."
"By the way, I've known you for so long, but I still don't know your name." He reached out his hand sincerely and said, "My name is Xu Le."
