Chapter 150 You Can Call Me Brother
Qi Nan was stunned for a moment, but then he regained his composure.
"The door is not locked, come in." He said, pushing the wheelchair and putting down the thin metal stick he used for teaching.
This means that this class will be temporarily suspended.
But the live broadcast was not turned off.
The optical computer is in Xingxing's hands. If it doesn't choose to shut down the live broadcast, the audience will know clearly what happens in this cabin.
So they watched Lin Ye push the door open and greet Qi Nan in a very familiar manner.
"So you live here. After I added your contact information, you never logged into your account again. I thought it would take a long time for us to meet again, but I didn't expect that we would be so destined to meet. How have you been recently?"
Lin Ye's words were not childish, but rather had the natural greetings of an adult.
Qi Nan poured him a glass of water.
This is the clean water source purified by the latest filtration machine that I made by myself when I was teaching a few days ago.
Lin Ye thanked her generously and took it in his hands. His eyes quickly fell on Xingxing. He looked at her curiously for a few seconds before looking away. He smiled and said to Qi Nan, "Grandpa Qi, thank you for saving me last time. Otherwise, I would not have had the chance to live past the age of eight and take the test for the federal kindergarten in the safe zone."
This sentence reveals some information.
Qi Nan received it.
He stroked the smooth, old armrest of the wheelchair and asked in a gentle voice, "It seems that you have passed the test and successfully enrolled, right? Then why are you still hanging around outside the safe zone? The radiation pollution here will seriously damage your body."
As he asked, his brows unconsciously frowned.
Lin Ye seemed to be surprised by his concern and worry. After a moment of hesitation, his smile became more sincere. He shook the laptop in his hand and answered honestly: "Although the school waived tuition and miscellaneous fees, I want to save more money, so I want to make some money through live streaming. After all, to survive here, there are many things in life that require money."
He said this frankly, and was not afraid of what the viewers in his live broadcast room would think when they heard it, because he had already exposed the fact that he was in Exile Star from the very beginning when he was broadcasting his search for ingredients. At that time, he explained the reason to the doubts in the barrage.
On the contrary, every time he was struggling to make ends meet or talked about this with others casually, the audience would only feel sorry for him and give him more tips.
"Besides, I only go out once a week. Most of the rest of the time I have to attend classes and train at school. I also wear the protective clothing issued by the school, so it basically won't cause much harm to my body."
Lin Ye explained it carefully to reassure Qi Nan.
But the wrinkles between Qi Nan’s brows did not loosen.
His inorganic artificial eyes stared at Lin Ye calmly for a while before he said, "But in the eight years before you entered school, your body had already been corroded by radiation pollution."
"..." Lin Ye probably didn't expect that he would suddenly expose this. After all, even he acted as if he didn't care, but this old man who he had only met once and who had saved him seemed to care more about it than he did.
Lin Ye was a little confused, but more of a helpless emotion.
His previous enthusiastic response suddenly became a little clumsy, and he forced a smile, wanting to say more comforting words to prove that he was okay.
At least, you can live to be over a hundred years old, right?
For Lin Ye, who thought that the average age of the people in the country was only in their seventies in his previous life, this was already a huge profit. He did not feel unwilling or angry about it.
Being able to live again and come to an interstellar society that only existed in everyone's imagination in the previous life, and even having the opportunity to travel through the sea of stars in the universe in the future... Lin Ye is very clear about how lucky he is.
He was blessed by fate, so even if things didn't go well at the start, he had no right to complain. What he should do was to live up to this luck and see a wider sea of stars in the universe.
Therefore, he was more grateful for the first kindness he encountered after coming into this world.
It’s the old man in the wheelchair in front of you.
Lin Ye didn't mean to make friends with him or want to gain anything from him. Although he guessed that the other party might be a big boss who kept his identity secret, what Lin Ye remembered at the beginning was his life-saving grace.
Therefore, when his words became clumsy and weak, Lin Ye did not want to tell the old man more about his physical condition and make him worry, so he once again turned his gaze to the quiet little robot next to him and changed the subject.
"Grandpa Qi, does this little companion robot have a name? It seems very intelligent." Lin Ye seemed unaware of the turmoil caused by Qi Nan and Xingxing on the Star Network.
Qi Nan was not surprised. After all, Lin Ye was just a new student. It would be difficult for him to adapt to the school's teaching and training. He also had to make money from live streaming. He did not have more energy to devote to other things.
But before he could introduce Xingxing, the little robot holding the mechanical doll and the light computer took the initiative to speak.
"Hello, human~" Xingxing looked at him, pinched the round claws of the mechanical doll with her little hands, and said softly: "My name is Xingxing."
The child still had the same innocent smile on his face as when we first met.
And Lin Ye could still sense a chill in the child's soft and slow voice.
He thought about it for a while, but couldn't figure it out, so he simply gave up thinking about it. He just smiled brightly and said to the little robot: "Hello, Xingxing. How old are you this year?"
It's just like when visiting relatives during the Chinese New Year, when the older and younger children imitate the adults' pretentious greetings.
Xingxing stared at his bright eyes and shook three slender fingers:
"I'm three years old~"
"I'm eight years old, five years older than you, so you can call me brother!" Lin Ye squatted in front of Xingxing and reached out to pinch the child's fingers in an especially familiar manner.
Take the opportunity to pinch it.
It feels like a real child's.
It's soft and warm, without any of the stiffness of a mechanical product.
While pinching, Lin Ye sighed in his heart that the high technology in the interstellar age is really extraordinary.
He didn't notice that Xingxing, whose hand he was pinching, had unconsciously wrinkled her face.
Trying hard to pull her hand back, Xingxing pursed her lips, glanced at Lin Ye, slid off the bench, and ran to hide behind Qi Nan's wheelchair holding Bubble.
This human is like a young pervert, pinching even the robot's hands.
It doesn't make balls or bubbles at all.
Putting herself in other people's shoes, Xingxing felt that the human protagonist was not like a normal good person.
After moving away from them for a distance, Xingxing no longer paid attention to the communication between Qinan and Lin Ye. It walked out the door holding Bubble.
The optical computer used for live broadcast was also taken away by it.
As soon as it came out, the number of comments on the screen increased.
Xingxing looked down for a while and found that there were several familiar IDs asking if the child in the house was the one it said would kill it.
Xingxing was silent for a few seconds, then shook his head slightly at the camera.
The answer is exactly the same as before: "I don't know~"
After saying that, Xingxing looked at the densely packed comments that showed concern for her, her eyes silently curved into beautiful crescents, her voice became softer, and she said to them softly, "Don't worry about me, I'll take you guys out to pick up trash for fun, okay?"
[Okay, okay, let’s not listen to their chat, let’s go play trash collection together!]
The audience, who always have a sympathetic and motherly view of Xing Xing, echoed this.
As for whether picking up trash is a game or not?
Xingbao said yes, that’s it.
And the baby is so well behaved, how could it be picking up trash? It is obviously taking the trash home to turn it into treasure!
Not only did they pick up the garbage, but they also created new and more valuable products, turning waste into treasure while also making a significant contribution to the environment of the Exile Star.
If the cub was not living on the Exile Planet and couldn't be reached by them, everyone would want to crowdfund to give the little guy a golden trophy!
Xingxing walked out holding Guangnao and Bubble.
From behind, Qi Nan reminded it not to go too far.
Xingxing stopped, nodded to the old man and the child inside through the window, then turned around and continued walking.
But after it left, Qi Nan in the room gradually became uneasy.
Lin Ye noticed this and was a little surprised. He asked, "Grandpa Qi, are you worried about Xingxing? Will it not obey your instructions?"
He had no ill intentions, he was just curious as to why Qinan would worry about a mechanical product. Although Xingxing looked not much different from a real child, Lin Ye, who came from another world, could more clearly recognize the differences between robots and humans.
Qi Nan's pupils shrank slightly when he heard this, but soon returned to normal. After taking a look at Lin Ye, he suddenly changed the subject and asked, "How was the result of your mental strength test for admission? If I'm not mistaken, it should be quite high, right?"
After all, the captain and the deputy captain had very high levels of mental strength back then. The offspring born from the union of two strong men should not be too weak even if they grew up on the Exile Star.
Lin Ye hesitated for a moment, feeling fortunate that he had turned off the live broadcast when chatting with Xingxing, so he could now tell the truth to Qinan.
But... do you really want to say it?
He thought about it, nodded, and replied: "Well, it's not very low. It seems that it will increase slightly with my training."
He didn't want to deceive this old man who was truly worried about him, but he also didn't want to reveal his secret easily.
"You are very smart." Qinan suddenly smiled.
Lin Ye's heart tightened, knowing that he probably guessed something, but fortunately the other party did not press on.
He breathed a sigh of relief and continued chatting with Qinan about Xingxing, the little companion robot.
If there is a chance, when he makes money in the future, he would like to buy one and take it home to experience it. After all, it is high-tech. When he died in his previous life, artificial intelligence was already very smart, but this is the first time he has seen such a realistic robot.
Curious, wanting.
I don’t know if I can be lucky enough to find a second little robot like this by rummaging through the garbage dump on this exile planet.
If that doesn’t work, the mechanical doll in the little robot’s arms will also work.
This thought originally just flashed through my mind.
But when the noise was heard outside again, Lin Ye subconsciously turned his head and saw a little guy who had appeared on the pile of metal outside at some point in time.
"Grandpa Qi, what is this...?" Lin Ye looked at the mechanical doll, a flash of amazement in his eyes.
What beautiful and clear eyes!
It looks like the bluest sky and the clearest sea, just like a pair of clean and bright sapphires!
Qi Nan also saw Shi Sheng.
He ignored Lin Ye's question and immediately turned the wheelchair and opened the window so that the mechanical doll outside could easily flip in.
This is a mechanical doll made by Xingxing herself, and she also gave it a name. Although Bubble was born later, Qinan knew that Bubble and Shisheng were absolutely different to Xingxing.
So no matter how it suddenly appears, I have to keep it, at least until the stars come back.
