Chapter Eight hundred and forty-two things every boy has thought about
"Crim?"
Waking up from a dream that he could not remember in any case, Fangran looked at the empty bed opposite him that was still empty even though it was past ten o'clock, and asked softly,
He didn't hear an answer, so he glanced around the room where he was in the darkness.
Only then did Fangran realize that this was not the white double dormitory he had imagined. It had a normal floor and a simple layout. Except that there were no windows, which proved that it was an underground scientific research base, it looked more like an apartment.
After noticing this fact, I saw the door of the room further inside, with the light indicating "internal activation" on.
Um...?
Looking at the time again, Fangran slowly sat up from the bed. Although he was still a little weak, he could finally walk. He slowly came to the door. It always felt like the technology door that should be found in a confidential place opened automatically.
Next to the door is a completely different space from the 'apartment'. There is only a white work table next to the dim light of the desk lamp, and Krim's figure is sitting there.
"Fangran? Are you awake? Your injury..."
"Ah... I slept too much before, so I couldn't sleep."
Seeing him stand up in surprise and look at her and ask, Fangran scratched his cheek and replied with a smile, then looked at the room,
There are cabinets filled with information, several large equipment cables connected to the terminal computer on the workbench, and a row of display racks displaying something, like a studio producing something.
"Hey...is this the place where you work and do experiments?"
Looking at those powerful-looking machines, Fangran blinked with surprise and curiosity, and then let Krim, who heard what he said, smile gently and simply:
"No, experiments in the living area are strictly prohibited by the teacher, and general experiments are difficult to conduct in such a small room."
"Ah...that's it (sweat)..."
Feeling his lack of knowledge, Fangran silently felt ashamed.
"This place is just a place where I sometimes do boring things to kill time when I can't sleep at night..."
Boring things!?
After thinking about it, he usually sleepwalks in a daze when he is bored. Seeing Krim still looking pale and smiling, Fangran glanced at the room and felt a little complicated.
Do you just spend time in a place like this...?
"Then what are these for? They look so powerful?"
Seeing Fangran pointing at the instruments around him, Krim took out an operating tablet and replied with a smile:
"These are just the most basic equipment for processing precision parts. The experimental areas are basically everywhere, and they are not as powerful as they look."
Then he watched him start it and demonstrate it to himself. Fangran stared blankly at the thing in his hand, projecting a three-dimensional projection with detailed data on the shape of the corners.
No! You are so powerful, right?
Fangran complained loudly in surprise. Fangran watched him turn the projection of blue light lines in the air to confirm. The next second, the machine in the room hummed steadily and lit up with blue light.
It only took a few seconds for Krim to take something exactly like the one in the projection and place it in the center of his palm.
Looking at the bright silver thing that looked like metal and crystal, Fangran carefully picked it up. It was obviously only as big as a fingernail, but it was extremely fine and had lines.
There may even be connection grooves and holes at the micron level.
Let's start by entering the tutor's base,
He was shocked by too much high technology and didn't know what to say.
"Is this what you do when you're bored...?"
He was so surprised that he couldn't breathe. Knowing how super geniuses passed their time, Fangran had never felt the gap between people so clearly. He looked at Kerim and asked in confusion:
"What are you doing these for??"
"It's just something that can't be put on the stage..."
"Please do tell me!"
Let me know that the gap between us is not that big!
After opening his mouth in silence, Klim hesitated a little when seeing Fang Ran's expression of intense curiosity, and finally pressed the light switch with a wry smile.
The lights on the row of display racks in the corner of the room light up from bottom to top.
"It's not something worth introducing."
The light illuminates all the robot models placed above, and each one is extremely lifelike.
Just looking at all the things that were born in the gloomy night of the past, as if they were symbols of every depressed and lost time, neither useful designs nor powerful weapons.
I am completely unable to achieve any high level of self-entertainment. I think of the figure in my memory that crushed the first words like rubbish.
'I didn't let you waste your time with these toys.'
Kerim's face turned even paler. He looked at Fangran walking over and smiled reluctantly:
"It's just some meaningless interests..."
"I'm going! Transform! Transform! King Kong! Gang!! And...this is...Pacific Rim!?"
Then at this moment before the words were finished,
When he saw Fangran, who was still in a weak state, rushing over at a turtle's speed, he exclaimed, then turned his head with gleaming eyes and asked in surprise:
“You did all this!!??”
Seeing Fangran's drooling face pressed against the display cabinet, not expecting such an attitude, Kerim replied in a daze:
"Ah...well, indeed...it's me..."
"Wow....."
This time, I really looked up at the gods in my eyes, from ‘Megatron’ who could no longer look directly at him for some reason to the real large-scale armored weapons on the night network trading interface.
Fangran looked at the 'Optimus Prime' that was about a foot tall and was closest to him. It was so intricate and detailed that every piece of iron and screws on the parts didn't look like it was made at all. It was like it had been transported directly from the movies to reality!
"How did you do this? Can you move? Can you transform!?"
Seeing his expression of admiration and intoxication, he was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to feel. Klim subconsciously answered truthfully:
"I scanned the movie frames to build a three-dimensional model... Then I analyzed and supplemented the overall analysis of the component parts. With the equipment here... the rest just took time to assemble and build... As for moving, the interior is equivalent to solid
So..."
After being stunned for a moment, Krim looked at Fangran's eyes shining brightly at such a meaningless thing. Krim asked in a soft and unexpected tone with some inexplicable meaning:
"Fangran...are you also interested in these...?"
"No, every boy will be interested."
Fangran answered without thinking. His eyes were a little lost as he looked at the model in front of him that would make enthusiasts spend huge sums of money and want to take it home.
Precision parts processed with scientific instruments, all alloys forming a truly complex mechanical feel, and a black ball with a soft-looking sci-fi shape, probably every boy can't refuse...
Um?
Wait, wait a minute.
Did something weird get mixed in just now...
Just as he was looking a little lost in thought, Fangran silently turned his gaze back little by little and looked at the edge of the first floor of the display cabinet. He didn't know when a cat ball had slipped into it.
Then he silently opened the door and took it out, rubbing it hard with his brows twitching and gritting his teeth:
"You guy, where did you go last night when I needed you!?"
")°?°(La meow?"
And Krim, who had been looking at him dumbfounded ever since he heard his soft answer without thinking, said in a daze:
"Don't you think it's funny?"
"Do you know how many people who have dreams of science fiction robots will be offended by your words?"
Holding the soft Lameow beast in his arms, Fangran looked at the obviously excellent mess in front of him with some gentleness and helplessness, Krim, who was always depressed and unsure of himself.
"By the way, this is the kind of thing you showed at the dance, with that big machine, what on earth is it? Um... I'm just a little curious. The French you spoke at that time was too professional, and it was useless at all.
I didn’t understand..."
Holding the bright silver parts in his hand and stroking the tail of the F-233 in his arms, Fangran didn't forget to nuzzle Tang Bing and looked at him who was lost in thought and asked.
"Ah...this, this is a by-product of my main experiments in recent years..."
After coming back to his senses and smiling with a long sigh of relief, Klim and he 'translated' the words in the dance and explained the origin and characteristics of this new material.
Just listening to the various terms such as energy permeability and super conductivity, Fangran finally changed into a simple expression like the F-233 he was holding, and only understood the heartfelt emotion at the beginning:
"So you are busy with this main experiment right now? Well, it sounds like it's very hard."
"Actually, it's not bad. In the past, experimental materials were too hard to come by, but recently, due to an opportunity, we have made significant progress and are finally close to completion. I have achieved a lot of results, including this new type of material."
"Then you should be looking forward to it. After all, what you have been studying for several years is finally going to be successful."
For Fangran's concern, which was completely incomprehensible to outsiders, when he heard him say this, Klim's smile was rare and his smile was no longer pale and he nodded.
"Well, I'm looking forward to it."
Then he looked at Fangran again, especially the F-233 in his arms. He resisted his curiosity to ask what kind of creature it was and said with a slight smile:
"So Fangran, what are you going to do now? According to Miss Aufia, your mission should have been completed, right?"
"Yeah, now that we've gotten rid of the wanted manhunt, all that's left is to wait here for the mentor grandfather who always has a straight face and makes people afraid to talk to him, to develop a way to unlock the simulation scene and rescue everyone. Then I can
Back to China."
He lowered his head and looked at the soft and adorable Meow that was in his arms this time, using the cat's tail to reach for the parts in his hand. Fangran then raised his head in response,
"Speaking of which, what are you going to do with this? Are you building a new Gundam!?"
Picking up the new material used to amuse the cat, he looked at the shape of the scales and looked at Krim with eyes shining.
"Gundam...that's it..."
Then I heard his smiling answer, led myself to the white workbench, and pressed the switch to make a vacuum environment assembly space appear.
Fangran saw a giant dragon that was even more than half a meter in size, with mechanical wings spread out and a technologically gorgeous look!
It was like the sense of déjà vu with the final boss in some grand sci-fi game. The first time I saw it, I lost my voice and felt an indescribable exclamation.
Even the F-233 in Fangran's arms jumped on the table and stretched out its tail to poke it out of curiosity.
"The new material produced in the experiment is not much. It cannot be said to be precious, but it is extremely special and limited, so I wanted to use it to make something memorable."
"I happened to read a story about dragons that day."
Seeing that the things I have made can make others so amazed, I am even a little incredible at how happy I feel at this moment. I even forgot that I emphasized in my heart that even if Fangran has no airs, he must be respected by a big shot.
As if he wanted to share it with others, Klim looked at the work that had basically taken shape in the space. He couldn't help but speak warmly and introduced it further to Fangran:
"And this time I designed the power system internally. As long as it is programmed later, it should be able to move..."
"Be sure to remember to name it! Qiuli Gao!"
Rang Fang couldn't help but want to have sex for nothing. Then he grabbed his shoulders with excitement and emphasized loudly. F-233 also jumped on top of his head and yelled "La Meow".
"Fuck! Are you a genius!? Ah, no, you are a genius! Oh my god, how on earth did you come up with the idea of making something like this!?"
Seeing Fang Ran speak so emotionally, Krim also chuckled eagerly from the bottom of his heart:
"I just accidentally remembered the robot animation I watched when I was a child. At that time, I really wanted to become a doctor in that animation that made various powerful robots."
"I understand, I understand! When I was a child, I also thought about one day driving a Gundam to save the world! All I could think about was pushing the power throttle joystick to the maximum like the protagonist!"
As soon as she heard what he said, Fangran couldn't wait to respond with a very understanding look. She also shared her childhood with him with bright eyes, and also mentioned some of the sources of all evil...
"Fangran, you also loved watching robot animations when you were a child?"
"Of course! Well...I also watched some other things, but do you know that the first cartoon I watched in my life was..."
...
On the outskirts of Geneva under the starry night, in a scientific research base deep on the earth's surface, in a room where there was only one figure in the living area, it seemed that they had found a super chat companion.
The two young men, who were completely different no matter where they came from, fell into a conversation about robots under the dim light at the work table. They seemed to be eager and completely unaware of fatigue in the already deep night...
