Chapter 62 Chapter 62 (Updated)
Because of the injury to his paw pad, Rong Heng not only got the right to go back to his bedroom to sleep, but he even didn't go to school the next day.
Before going to school, the kids waved goodbye to him one by one, telling him to stay at home and take good care of his injuries. Only Ruan Jiao looked at him angrily, with his whiskers standing straight up.
Bad guy!
But since he only had the same expression whether he was angry or not, no one noticed.
Rong Heng, who didn't have to go to school, was happy to be at home and idle. Ruan Shiqing was working on the design of the helipad in the workshop, so he lay on the workbench, resting his head on his front paws and watching him. The beautiful bow on his right paw swayed.
Without having to accompany the cubs, Ruan Shiqing stayed in the workshop for the whole day. By the time he finished the first draft of the design, it was nearly five o'clock in the afternoon. In a while, the cubs would be out of school.
After stretching his limbs to loosen up his stiff body, Ruan Shiqing looked at Snowball lying on the workbench. The cub had fallen asleep with his paws as his head resting on it, his exposed belly rising and falling.
After gently pinching the kid's ears, Ruan Shiqing went out to get some fresh air.
As a result, he ran into Xiong Yuanyuan who was walking in as soon as he walked out the door. When Xiong Yuanyuan saw him, she immediately greeted him, "There is a guest looking for you."
Ruan Shiqing followed him out and saw two men standing in the yard.
A younger man, about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, tall and handsome, especially his blue eyes and long blue hair neatly tied behind his head were particularly eye-catching.
The other person's blue eyes and long hair, which were similar to those of the little mermaid, made Ruan Shiqing look at her a few more times. He secretly thought to himself that if the little mermaid grew up, she would look about the same as this.
Standing next to the young man was a middle-aged man, whose figure and temperament were inferior to the young man next to him, but compared with ordinary people, his figure and appearance were still very outstanding.
He is not a native of planet B3024, and is either rich or noble.
Ruan Shiqing quickly determined the identities of the two people and quickly stepped forward to greet them, "Excuse me, may I ask what you two guests may need?"
"We are here to do something. We heard that the weapons you make here are very good, so we came to take a look. Where are your weapons?" The middle-aged man was the first to speak. He looked around the yard and sneered, "It looks like an ordinary repair shop."
His demeanor and tone were filled with condescending disdain.
"Wright, how many times have I told you that you should learn the word politeness?" The blue-haired young man glanced at him, his tone gentle yet firm.
This Wright's status is definitely not as high as that of the young man. Ruan Shiqing found it a bit funny to see him looking unconvinced but having to shut up angrily.
"I'm sorry, he has always had this annoying temper. I hope you don't mind." The blue-haired young man said gently.
Ruan Shiqing shook his head: "What kind of weapon do you want?"
He led the two to the warehouse and said, "I do have some weapons here, but they are just gadgets I made in my spare time. You two may not be interested in them."
The warehouses store samples of first-generation weapons, which are more expensive than mass-produced goods in factories and may also have certain defects.
The young man walked around the warehouse, picked up a blaster and examined it carefully: "No wonder everyone here says your weapons are very good."
Wright, who was following behind him, was still muttering in dissatisfaction: "These are all weapons I have never seen before. Who knows how powerful they are..."
Ruan Shiqing pretended not to hear and smiled politely. "You are too kind. These are just some small things that can't be sold."
The young man glanced coldly at Wright who was muttering to himself, and the other party immediately shut up, but his expression was still dissatisfied and indignant.
After handing the blaster to Wright, he picked out two other relatively small guns and said to Ruan Shiqing, "I want these three. In fact, compared with these weapons, I am more interested in the big one you put in the yard. I wonder if you can explain it to us?"
Parked in the yard were only the oversized lightly armored walkers.
Ruan Shiqing smiled faintly: "I'm afraid that won't work. It's just a semi-finished product."
"That's a shame." The young man did not force it, but sighed with regret: "Then I'll take these three first. If the performance is good enough, I will come back next time."
After settling the bill, Ruan Shiqing escorted the two to the door. The young man's eyes lingered on the armored walker in the corner of the yard: "I hope that next time I come, I can see this machine completed."
Ruan Shiqing smiled politely and did not refuse outright. He just practiced Tai Chi: "That may take a long time."
Since Ruan Shiqing had to entertain guests, 09 went alone to pick up the kids from school today.
The landspeeder stopped at the door. Little Dragon and Nota jumped out first, followed closely by Ruan Jiao. The little mermaid was the last one to go out slowly, then turned around to pick up the book on the seat.
At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind: "I hope that next time I come, I can see this machine completed."
The little mermaid's movement of holding the book was slightly stiff. She turned around to look, and first saw a head of neatly tied long blue hair, and then half of a familiar face slightly tilted to the side.
The person sealed in the black memory suddenly appeared before her eyes. The little mermaid widened her eyes in surprise and almost stood still.
Before the other party turned around, he hurriedly got into the landspeeder.
When the young man turned around, he only saw a strand of blue hair rising and falling. His eyes paused at the landspeeder at the door, then quickly moved away. He raised the corner of his mouth and said to Wright, "Let's go."
It was not until the young man had left with his people for a long time that the little mermaid nervously moved out from the corner.
09 in the driver's seat looked at him strangely: "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
The little mermaid shook her head and gave him a faint smile.
He was the last one to enter the house. The other kids had already gathered around their father. Normally at this time, he would also go over. Even if he didn't join in the play, reading next to his father was also something that made the kid feel happy.
But today he was in low spirits, with that familiar face on his mind, making him feel nervous and uneasy.
Is it him? It must be him.
They had worked together in the laboratory day and night, and no one knew him better than the little mermaid.
He recognized the other person the first time he saw him.
But why did he come here from the planet Sijialan? And why did he come to the repair shop? Was it a coincidence, or did he come here specifically to see him?
The little mermaid clenched her hands, and the uneasiness in her heart gradually grew.
He thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't figure out the other party's purpose. From a long time ago, he had never been smarter than the other party.
Finally, he pursed his lips and gently tugged at his father's clothes.
"What does Yuebai want to say?" Ruan Shiqing turned around and looked at him, straightening his crooked headdress for him.
[What did that person come here for?]
The little mermaid called up the virtual keyboard on the cart and typed her question.
——Since he learned to type, Ruan Shiqing installed a communicator on his cart to make it easier for the little mermaid to communicate with people.
"Are you talking about the customer with the same hair color as you?" Ruan Shiqing thought he was also curious, so he smiled and said, "He came to the store to buy something." As he spoke, his eyes fixed on the little mermaid and he said, "Just now I thought your eye and hair colors were very similar, and now it seems that even your facial features are somewhat similar."
It’s just that the young man’s facial features are more rugged, while the little mermaid’s facial features are softer because she is young.
The little mermaid lowered her eyes in panic and shook her head in denial: [Not at all.]
"Why doesn't she look like him?" Ruan Shiqing rubbed the little mermaid's head and said gently, "When Yuebai grows up, she will definitely be as good-looking as that guest."
In the past, whenever his father praised him, the little mermaid would narrow his sapphire eyes and smile brilliantly.
But this time, he did not feel happy.
He doesn't want to look like the other person at all. He is himself, not someone else.
After leaving the repair shop, Wright finally couldn't hold back his anger: "Lansing, don't forget, we are here to investigate the Zerg, not to travel around."
He looked around at the desolate scene with disdain: "I don't know what's so good about this place. If the elders hadn't asked us to come here to investigate, I would never have set foot in such a dirty place in my life."
"Wright." Lansing, who was playing with the blaster, suddenly put the muzzle of the gun to his forehead. His expression and tone were still gentle, but there was no joking in his ice-blue eyes: "I hope you remember that you are accompanying me as my assistant in this mission. Here, you only need to obey my orders. You don't need to have any suggestions or opinions. Do you understand?"
The black muzzle of the gun pressed against his forehead, making Wright pale. However, because of the repeated suppression, he could not help but retort: "If you really dare to kill me, you can forget about being the Son of God. My father will not let you have an easy life!"
"Oh?" Lan Xin smiled, put away the blaster casually, and said to him sideways: "I'll find a chance to try it."
His tone and demeanor were so casual, as if he would really find an opportunity to kill him. Wright couldn't help swallowing his saliva. But he refused to give in and said with his neck stiff, "It's good that you know the relationship is powerful. Even if you are the Son of God, without the support of the elders, you are nothing!"
After saying this, he strode forward, putting some distance between himself and Lansing.
Lansing glanced at his tense back, his expression gradually turned cold. He put away his gun, turned around, and walked in the opposite direction of Wright, leaving only one sentence: "I have something to deal with, you go back first."
Light, who was striding forward, stopped and asked: "Where are you going?"
However, Lansing did not respond, but left him and went in another direction.
He returned to the repair shop.
There was a protection system outside the repair shop. Lansing did not rush in. Instead, he carefully hid his tracks and wandered outside the protection system.
As he approached the backyard, he heard some noise coming from inside.
Looking through the gaps in the wrought iron fence, you can see a few cubs playing in a pool under the lush falling star vines.
There was only one cub lying in the corner of the pool, reading quietly with a book in his hands.
The cub's long blue hair was braided into an exquisite braid, dotted with gorgeous ornaments, and the ends of its hair fell behind it, with the ends immersed in the water, swaying along with the beautiful blue fish tail.
His feeling was not wrong, the fleeting figure was indeed him.
Staring at the figure, Lansing's mouth corners curled up slightly and turned into a silent laugh.
047, it’s you.
So many years have passed, the world has changed, things and people have changed, but you remain the same.
It's so clean that it's blinding.
Lansing narrowed his eyes slowly.
