Chapter 13 Chapter 13



It took 09 a few minutes to readjust to his new body.

Ruan Shiqing applied lubricant to his joints, and the originally stiff joints became flexible. He pulled his right leg back, slightly bent his knees, placed one hand on his chest, and put the other hand behind his body. He bowed his head and performed an ancient etiquette towards Ruan Shiqing: "Thank you for giving me a new life, sir."

"You're welcome. Consider it a thank you for teaching me Interstellar Universal Language." Ruan Shiqing tapped the virtual screen of the intelligent computer and connected the network of the intelligent computer to 09: "Most of your functional partitions are damaged. It will take some time to repair them. But I have reconnected the network for you, and you can learn it by yourself."

Robots in the interstellar age have strong autonomous learning capabilities.

Although the damaged functional area cannot be repaired in a short time, it does not prevent 09 from becoming his new assistant.

A large amount of information is input into the robot's storage area via the holographic network.

09 sighed with satisfaction: "It feels so good to have my body filled with knowledge."

He quickly browsed the information in the holographic network, set words such as "housekeeper", "housekeeping", and "nanny" as filtering keywords, and screened out a large number of related books, which were stored in separate partitions.

The gradually filling up area made him feel at ease. With an entire storage area full of home economics knowledge, he would study hard and never let himself be unemployed!

Let 09 move freely while Ruan Shiqing started to repair the functional partitions of 09.

The functional partition panel was very delicate, but it was violently damaged. Ruan Shiqing still had a lot of misunderstandings about the structure and principle of such delicate electronic components, so he could only search for information online and learn while trying to repair it himself.

09, who was allowed to move freely, circled around him.

First, clean the workbench, sort the remaining materials, and clear away the useless waste...

After cleaning up the entire workshop, he fell into deep thought over the remains that had been removed from his body. After a moment, he held the remains and asked Ruan Shiqing, "Sir, can I bury these remains under the vines in the yard?"

On the display screen, two yellow indicator lights simulating human eyes flashed.

He remembered that before turning off the phone, the gentleman had said that he could bury it himself.

Ruan Shiqing took a look at this little robot that seemed to have a particularly ceremonial sense, smiled and nodded: "This is your body, you can take care of it yourself."

09After a small cry of joy and a thank you, he happily carried the pile of replaced remains to the yard.

He chose a corner where the Falling Star vines were particularly lush, dug a hole, and buried the old body in it very solemnly.

It is autumn now, and soon the ripe starfruits will fall in large clusters.

Like stars thrown into the embrace of the Milky Way.

After burying his old body, 09 felt that he had accomplished something great. He carefully cleaned the dust off his new body and was about to go back to the house when he noticed a figure sneaking around the door.

???

09 stood up alertly and walked towards the door.

"Sir, you have been lingering in front of my master's shop five times. How can I help you?"

Luther was startled by him, but when he saw that it was a robot that was only as tall as his waist, he breathed a sigh of relief. He pointed to the sign hanging on the door with some embarrassment: "Excuse me, is this a repair shop?"

In fact, he had already visited more than a dozen repair shops in succession, but after listening to what he said, the prices quoted by the shop owners were all very high. He had no choice but to try his luck in this repair shop he had never seen before.

This repair shop is actually very eye-catching, but its style seems to be too out of place with other repair shops on this street.

The repair shops on this street are of a very rough style. The shops are filled with various materials and items to be repaired. The ground is always covered with various machine oil stains, making the shops look crowded and dirty. Even the shop owners are very rude.

But this store looks very... clean and tidy. There are even plants in the yard. It looks more like a well-kept home of wealthy people than a repair shop.

So much so that he wandered at the door four or five times, but did not dare to go in and ask.

"Yes, sir, you have come to the right place. My master is a great repairman." 09 immediately started selling when he heard that there was a guest. He reconnected to the Internet, and his vocabulary was richer than before, so he sold more vigorously: "Look at me, ten minutes ago, I was just a pile of rags. Thanks to my master who gave me a new life, I can stand here to welcome you!"

He even did a 360-degree spin in front of the guests, showing off his brand new body from all angles.

This little golden robot really looked very delicate, and Luther was tempted. After all, there weren't many repair shops that could repair delicate objects like robots, and most of them could only repair simple household items and transportation vehicles.

He followed 09 in.

The little robot walked into the house ahead of him with small but quick steps, and said in an excited voice, "Sir, a guest has arrived."

When Ruan Shiqing heard the sound, he saw a young man standing in the middle of the room in a somewhat awkward manner.

He was tall, wearing old clothes, with slightly dark skin, but his eyes were very bright, like some kind of wild animal with tenacious vitality.

"What do you need repaired?" Ruan Shiqing asked.

Seeing the young, neatly dressed shop owner, Luther felt a chill in his heart - he didn't look like a repairman at all.

But now that he was here... he hesitated for a moment, then said, "I bought a second-hand podracing car a few days ago, but now it won't start. I need your help to see what went wrong."

The repair shops he had visited before, after hearing what he had said about the situation, all said that the engine was most likely broken and quoted him a very high price.

The shuttle race was approaching, and he had spent most of his savings just to buy this second-hand shuttle, and he no longer had enough money to replace the engine.

"Where is the shuttle now?" Ruan Shiqing asked.

"It's too heavy to start in my house and now I have to go home and get it fixed."

"Then wait a moment. I'll bring the tools and go with you." Ruan Shiqing said, and asked 09 to pack up his toolbox. He went upstairs and told the puppy and the little mermaid that he was going out.

The little mermaid nodded sensibly, indicating that she would take good care of the home.

Fish are so troublesome, once they are on land, they can't even leave. No wonder those mermaids stay on the planet Sijialan for years and never go anywhere.

Rong Heng glanced at him and followed Ruan Shiqing.

"You have to stay home, too." Ruan Shiqing noticed the kid who followed him closely, so he pinched his armpits, picked him up and shook him.

Rong Heng: ???

Why can't I go too?

I'm not like a mermaid. I don't have legs and can't even walk.

However, Ruan Shiqing just carried him back and placed him on the soft cushion on the windowsill: "Dad has to go out to work and can't take you with him."

They had no place to live before, and the kid's injuries were serious, so he was really worried.

Now that the situation is better, I can't carry my baby with me wherever I go.

“……” Rong Heng slapped his hand away.

If you don’t want to go, then don’t go. I don’t really want to go anyway.

He lay down on the mattress and turned to look out the window.

After Ruan Shiqing went downstairs, he turned back and looked at the staircase entrance with boredom.

The little mermaid floated to the surface of the water, glanced secretly at him, and happily blew bubbles in the water.

On the way to Luther's house, Ruan Shiqing looked up information about shuttle racing on the Internet.

Only then did I know that the annual high-speed shuttle race on planet B3024 was about to begin.

High-speed shuttle racing is a very primitive sport that has been passed down for thousands of years.

The shuttle race is composed of an anti-gravity shuttle and two independent jet engines. It has amazing power and extremely fast speed, reaching a maximum speed of 1,500 kilometers per hour. The competition is full of dangers and accidents are frequent. Because the risk factor is too high, it has long been banned by imperial law.

But on the distant planet, the sport remains popular.

Not only does Planet B3024 hold a high-speed shuttle race every autumn, but it also has a gambling industry that has grown along with the race. Both have formed a complete and mature system and industrial chain on this planet.

Autumn has arrived and the registration period for the competition is approaching. Many athletes who want to participate have already started preparing their own vehicles.

Luther was obviously one of them.

Ruan Shiqing did not comment on this dangerous race. After arriving at Luther's house, he first conducted a comprehensive inspection of the shuttle racing car.

This podracing car was obviously very old. It had passed through many hands before it reached Luther. Not only was the paint on the outside stained, but even the control cables had exposed the metal wires inside.

Sit back on and start.

The jet engines ignited and the shuttle shuddered violently, making a deafening hum, but it did not move.

After several inspections and tests, Ruan Shiqing jumped out of the car and said, "The control cables and the engine are seriously aged, but they can still operate. The problem is with the anti-gravity generator."

"After replacing the new anti-gravity generator, this car can be driven normally, but I don't recommend you drive it to participate in competitions. It is no longer capable of supporting high-speed driving in competitions."

Luther originally had no hope for this young repairman, but he found the problem within just ten minutes of his arrival.

Jet engines are much more expensive than antigravity generators, which is a much better result than he expected.

He said happily, "Then could you please replace the anti-gravity generator for me? How much does it cost?"

Ruan Shiqing thought that he didn't understand what he meant, so he emphasized again: "This shuttle is already very old. If it participates in the competition, it may cause an accident."

The speed of shuttle racing is as high as hundreds of kilometers per hour. Once an accident occurs, it will inevitably endanger lives.

"But there are many accidents in the competition every year. Participating in a high-speed shuttle race is a gamble with your life." Luther shrugged and smiled nonchalantly: "You are also an ancient human, right? You should understand my feelings. People like us, if we don't want to live in servility, we can only gamble with our lives."

Compared to the powerful Evolved Man and Bis Man, the Ancient Man is the weakest. So much so that many jobs now exclude the Ancient Man. If they want to get the same reward as the Bis Man and Evolved Man, they must work much harder.

Even though the empire repeatedly emphasized racial equality, only the ancient humans themselves knew best the exclusion and oppression they actually suffered.

Luther patted the old shuttle racing car and whispered, "In fact, high-speed shuttle racing is not allowed for ancient humans to participate, because ancient humans are very weak in terms of physical strength, endurance, and organ perception range. The speed of shuttle racing is too fast, and they think it is difficult for ancient humans to control it."

"But your race won't be recorded when you sign up anyway." Luther sneered, "If you don't try, how do you know that ancient humans are definitely the worst?"

The author has something to say: Fish boy: Look, daddy doesn’t take you with him!

Rongzai:?

200 people will be selected to receive red envelopes! Sorry, I forgot to set the time for the manuscript storage box.

PS: The settings of the high-speed shuttle race and shuttle race were referenced from "Star Wars". If I remember correctly, it should be "Star Wars: The Phantom Menace" that has the high-speed shuttle race. If you are interested, you can go and watch Star Wars, it is really exciting.
