Extra 3: The Robot's Mission

All the children in the kindergarten know that Chuyun has a robot at home, which is better than Jiajia’s Dahuang. The robot carries Chuyun to and from school every day and will wait outside no matter it is windy or rainy.

The fourth big tree to the right of the kindergarten is where 001 often waits for Chuyun. It calculates the time for school to be over. Usually, it can see the little master who can't wait to go out in five minutes, but this time it has exceeded the time.

001 goes straight in.

"Hey, whose parent are you? The kindergarten doesn't allow parents to enter, so you can only wait here."

"My master is Chu Yun."

"What the hell? You'll have to wait for that. It will be out soon."

001 instantly searched for multiple excuses in his mind, but each one seemed to have little chance of deceiving the human being in front of him called the security guard.

So 001 climbed over the wall. The intelligent robot is excellent in all aspects. It can easily avoid the camera and the teacher and search for its owner's class.

Sure enough, it saw its owner.

"If you become my little brother, I'll let you go home!"

A chubby kid led a group of kids around Chu Yun. The chubby kid's name was Li Hu. Movie characters all had followers, so he followed suit and recruited followers. All the boys in the class were his followers. Only Chu Yun in front of him kept disagreeing.

"Mom said I don't have a brother, so I can't be your little brother."

Chu Yun shook his head. Li Hu’s birthday was two months younger than his, so he was the older brother.

"No! You're the only one missing from the class. If you become my little brother, I can buy you popsicles."

Chu Yun was a little anxious. He was not feeling well and would have a stomachache after eating popsicles. 001 was still waiting for him outside, and he was so anxious that his eyes turned red.

"Please make way. I want to go home. My friends are waiting for me."

Chu Yun just wanted to leave, but this group of kids wouldn't let him go. He had a good temper and didn't want to get angry.

Children tend to push and shove each other when they are talking. Seeing that someone was about to leave, Li Hu grabbed Chu Yun's arm.

"I won't let you go. I won't let you go."

During the struggle, Chu Yun staggered and was about to fall to the ground, but was dragged up by a pair of big hands. Feeling weightless, Chu Yun opened his eyes and saw 001.

He was picked up by 001 with one hand, and Li Hu could no longer touch him in an instant.

"001! How did you get in?"

"Climb over the wall."

001 looked down and scanned the group of little kids. After confirming that they had no attack power, he turned and left.

There was a crying sound from behind. That's how kids in kindergarten are. If one kid cries, everyone else will cry too. Chu Yun turned around and saw that the one crying the loudest was Li Hu.

"Mom... there's a monster..."

When 001 scanned, its eyes would emit red light, which scared Li Hu.

001When he couldn't hear anything, he carried Chu Yun home.

When he got home, Chu Yun told his parents the whole story in a jumbled manner. Chu's parents understood that their son was almost bullied and it was just a minor fight between children. However, they immediately contacted the teacher and told him the situation.

Li Hu's mother added Chu's mother as a friend, apologized to her, and said that she had taught the naughty child a lesson. The teacher in the class also taught the other children not to take in younger brothers and criticized Li Hu by name. The matter was over.

It is said that children grow up ridiculously fast, and this is really true. Xiao Chuyun has successfully graduated from the Seven-Colored Light Kindergarten. He has gloriously become an elementary school student. Even on the first day of school, 001 took him to register.

In the past two years, 001 has been sent for inspection several times, and its functions in all aspects have become more and more perfect. However, patched up ones are never as good as new ones, and the repair costs have also cost a lot of money.

"Mom, I know 001 gets sick easily. When I grow up, I will make a lot of money and support you and 001! I will make sure 001 never gets sick again!"

The couple didn't take the child's words seriously, but 001 beside them moved his eyes.

Everyone in the family seemed to treat 001 as a family member. The more 001 learned, the more useful he became. He needed to absorb a lot of knowledge, and Chu Mu's study gradually became 001's exclusive study.

When Chuyun goes to school, 001 will read in the study room by himself, but it always remembers Chuyun's school time and will wait at the door an hour in advance.

It rained that day, and the parents of the primary school were very confident in the school and the teachers. No parents were waiting at the door. There was no fourth big tree on the right side of the primary school entrance, only a constant stream of cars.

Chu Yun was taking classes on the second floor. 001 found the building and stood where he could see the windows on the second floor, looking up.

"Chu Yun, is that your robot?"

"It's raining heavily outside. Why doesn't it find a place to take shelter?"

"Robots shouldn't be damaged by the rain, right? No need to hide. That's really cool."

The teacher said that first-grade students represent maturity and are little adults, but Chu Yun looked at the heavy rain outside and burst into tears. This was the first time he realized that 001 would wait outside even when it rained, and he, a kindergartener, knew nothing about it.

Xiao Chuyun lay by the window and looked at 001, tears falling from her eyes, and she shouted at 001 to come home quickly.

The rain was noisy, and 001 couldn't see or hear his owner's voice. He only saw him crying and his mouth shape was asking him to go home, which should be a signal to drive him away.

001's body stiffened for a moment, and it thought its body had broken down again, but it didn't, it could still walk.

Chu Yun saw 001 slowly turn around and walk home.

Chu Yun was picked up by his father after school today. 001 was standing in the living room looking at the door.

As soon as Xiao Chuyun entered the room, he ran to 001.

"Why are you getting wet in the rain?"

001 didn't know how to answer because it suddenly started raining and he was outside and got wet.

“Because it’s raining.”

001 can determine the humidity in the air to make weather forecasts, but the weather in Qing City has been a bit changeable recently, and 001 made a wrong judgment.

"Next time it rains you must take an umbrella, or find somewhere to shelter from the rain. You can't get wet."

"001 can get caught in the rain."

There was a hint of pride in his tone.

Chu Yun's tears came suddenly, he was angry and sad:

"Did you keep getting wet when it rained before? I don't want you to get wet, you'll get sick..."

Tears gathered into a big bubble in his eyes and fell on 001's hand. 001 raised his hand and touched his chest in a daze.

It won't get sick even if it gets caught in the rain. It's a robot, not a human.

But facing the little master who was crying so hard, 001 said something contrary to his intention for the first time.

"Then I won't get wet in the rain."

Although Chu Yun is usually serious and dull, he is also very smart. He realized that 001 was afraid of his tears.

This is easy now, 001 has become more obedient.

"Hurry, 001, where's my red scarf?"

During the flag-raising ceremony today, those without red scarves will be punished by standing. Children are always forgetful and cannot remember where the red scarf that was clearly there yesterday went.

Chu's father and mother are used to the chaos every morning. They have handed over the responsibility of taking care of Chu Yun to 001, and it even does a better job than them as parents.

001 cooked for the whole family in the morning and then called Chuyun to get up. His school uniform and homework bag had already been packed. 001 even learned how to use a smartphone, so he could communicate with Chuyun's class teacher without any obstacles.

"Master, the red scarf is in the second pocket of the schoolbag."

The bread on Chu Yun's plate was cut into pieces of appropriate size, making it easier for Chu Yun to chew without choking. Chu Yun also grew rapidly under the care of 001's nutritious meals.

The two good friends have always been very close. Sometimes when Chu Yun makes a mistake, 001 will stop Chu's father and mother from teaching him a lesson. He is even more doting than them.

Soon Chu Yun was promoted from the first grade to the sixth grade, and his homework became more and more. He spent more time at school every day and less time at home. There was no one at home, so 001 sometimes stayed at the school gate of Chu Yun all day until Chu Yun came home from school.

Chu Yun is now 168 cm tall, and the milk he drinks every day is not in vain. The double bed in the bedroom can no longer accommodate the two of them.

Chu's father and mother have been promoted and given salary increases in recent years. The child has grown up. This house is a bit old and far from Chu Yun's school. They plan to replace this small house with a bigger one.

The couple acted quickly and immediately contacted the agent to view the house and booked it. 001 also had his own room, mainly so that everyone could have their own independent space.

Chu Yun had no objection to this. Although he was not used to it, he was not a child anymore. He was not a good sleeper and would always bump into 001.

001 got a new room and Chu Yun helped him choose a four-piece bedding set, but he still used the same double bed.

On the first night of moving into the new house, the two good friends said goodbye in the living room and went back to their respective rooms. The next day, Chu's mother opened the bedroom door and found a big guy squatting at Chu Yun's door.

"001?"

001 cannot live without Chuyun. As a robot, its mission is to accompany its master. It understands that its master needs independent space and has no complaints. Waiting in an invisible place is its way of accompanying.

"I'm waiting for my master to wake up."
