Lingshou looked at the closed container in the center of the laboratory with somewhat confused eyes, and shrugged helplessly.
He couldn't make an arbitrary decision.
No matter what countermeasures or policies he adopts, Lingshou feels that he cannot satisfy himself.
After all, it is creating an unprecedented existence.
Since the Soul Lord Yuan entrusted an important task of the federal central government to himself, a newly promoted registered mechanic, with great trust, he naturally could not live up to the Soul Lord Yuan's trust. Lingshou thought in his heart.
In order to solve the doubts that had always existed in his heart, Lingshou decided to find a friend whom he had not contacted for a long time.
The next day, at nine o'clock in the morning, Lingshou arrived at the central area of the capital city of Kenuo City. According to the navigation on the latest map of Kenuo City in the mobile phone software, he successfully found an old friend in the central commercial street.
Meeting place.
An inconspicuous store——[Melody Repair Shop].
After realizing that the store door was not locked, Lingshou opened the door and walked in with the feeling of seeing him again after a long absence.
Seeing the extremely shocking scene in front of him, Lingshou couldn't help but widen his eyes.
That repair shop can really be said to be the same inside and out. It does not involve false advertising at all. The internal environment is the same as the first impression of the exterior wall sign, which makes it difficult for people with a little germaphobia to stay. And as the store manager, String String
He just squinted his eyes and lay leisurely on the folding chair behind the counter.
For the sake of convenience, Stringer often doesn't go back to his dormitory at night and sleeps directly on an old-fashioned folding chair. He wears gray work clothes that don't look dirty, has a shaggy beard on his face, and his exposed skin is also a little yellow.
He looks like a greasy senior repairman.
Meeting for the first time after not seeing each other for many years, Lingshou felt a little disillusioned with string music.
"Oh? Here comes a guest who looks very familiar." String String noticed the arrival of the magic hand and slowly opened his eyes.
Lingshou looked at the man in front of him with some disgust, "Are you really the original body of that string string?"
"Well. My appearance now is probably a bit different from what you imagined, Lingshou. I remember you, Lingshou, after you were invited to join the federal government's soul headquarters, we rarely met." String string folded from the
I tossed on the chair for a long time and then sat up.
"There is very little business here, and even less business on weekdays. We haven't seen each other for a long time, so we can have a good chat."
Lingshou looked down at String String, who had just woken up and was listless, and said seriously: "To be honest, String String, your appearance now is really different from before. Something important happened to make you so depressed.
A decadent thing?”
"Sigh, you think too much and seriously. String string. Nothing happened to me that was enough to make me depressed. The current appearance is just caused by changes in environment and mentality." String string waved his hand and denied.
"Since nothing bad has happened, as an old friend, I would like to suggest you, String String, pay a little attention to your appearance. Don't develop a lot of bad habits just because you usually stay alone at the base and no one will take care of you.
Bad habit, wasted a pretty face. He is obviously not thirty years old, but now he looks like
Just like a middle-aged uncle who is close to forty years old." Facing his old friend String String, Ling Shou said bluntly.
String String retorted unconvinced: "It's meaningless for you to say this, Lingshou. Even if he looks forty years old, according to the current standards of the Red Federation, where the average age is more than one hundred and twenty years old, he is not too old.
, Lingshou, your thoughts are too outdated."
"I didn't mean what I said..." Lingshou didn't know how to persuade Lingshou.
Stringer shook his head: "Lingshou, don't worry about me. No matter how low I am, in terms of achievements alone, I am a registered mechanic with a very high status."
Lingshou crossed his arms and said seriously: "Excuse me, let me introduce myself again. My code name is "Lingshou", and I am one of the registered mechanics at the Federal Government's Soul Headquarters. Don't underestimate String Strings.
Me."
After hearing Lingshou's self-introduction, String String suddenly became energetic and stood up.
String string enthusiastically used his arms to invite the spirit hand and said: "Let me tell you. After many years of neglecting your talent, your boy has finally been promoted to a registered mechanic. When you and I were still young, I said, spirit hand
You are just a little younger than me, Shou, and the talents hidden in you still need to be refined. Otherwise, you would have been promoted to a registered machine master earlier than me."
The spirit hand pried open String String's hand, and said dissatisfiedly: "Ahem, you don't need to tell me, I also know it. String String, the Spirit Organization of the Creation Mechanism, one of the thirteen registered Mechanism Masters, the Spirit of the Creation Mechanism, and
He is also the branch director of Central Commercial Street."
Stringer moved his stiff body and said: "The news from your federal government's soul headquarters is still as well-informed as ever."
Lingshou said calmly: "After all, our soul of the federal government and the soul headquarters of your creation agency are competitors. Collecting intelligence about your opponents is common sense in competition."
Stringer scratched his head helplessly: "But our creation agency, the Spirit Headquarters, has never regarded your soul of the federal government as a competitor. Lingshou, do you have to stand on the side of the soul of the federal government? I really want to go back.
Until that time in the past."
String Strings and Lingshou are very close. They studied in the same middle school and the same class before, and they can be regarded as old friends who have known each other for a long time. Later, fate played a joke on the two of them. Due to the distribution of ambitions, the two could only
He joined two major intelligent organizations that compete with each other. However, in private and non-working hours, the relationship between the two is pretty good.
Lingshou was silent for a while and said: "The past can't be gone back. String string, you have to accept this reality. However, as long as we don't talk about the organization, the two of us can still remain friends."
"Forget it, Lingshou, you are surprisingly persistent when it comes to certain things." String Strings felt helpless.
"Well, you're right. I just recently heard that you, String String, have actually accepted an apprentice. With the way you look like String String, most people shun you. How can anyone be willing to be your disciple?
?, Could it be that you took advantage of young people’s ignorance and abducted them from somewhere?” Lingshou continued his teasing.
Stringer grabbed Lingshou's clothes and said excitedly: "Lingshou, have you taken the wrong medicine? I have never lied to my apprentice. Speaking of which, maybe you don't
Xin. My apprentice’s talent in the art of mechanism far exceeds that of you and me, and he has been recognized by the Spirit King Qi. If he had not had almost no contact with the art of mechanism before reaching adulthood, he would have become a registered organ master by now.
, even the leader of one party."
"You, String String, actually have such a high opinion of your apprentice? It makes me want to go and see it for myself." Ling's hand held String String, as if to kill him.
Stringer said proudly: "His name is Yu Chen. He just graduated from Tiangong College not long ago. If you have the opportunity in the future, I must bring him over and show him off in front of you."
Lingshou returned to normal and said: "Okay, let's not talk about other things. I am not looking for you in String String this time just to miss old times, but I have recently had a problem that is difficult to solve and I want to ask String String for your help."
String String touched his chin and said: "Is it a question that can stump the famous 'Spirit Hand'? I... will try my best to answer it depending on the situation."
"My confidence is not bad. Recently, I am secretly creating a humanoid girl according to the arrangements of the organization. My research has now reached the final and most critical stage. However, I have fallen into unprecedented confusion." Ling Ling
Hand began to explain his recent experience, "I always feel that I cannot give the humanoid girl characteristics, and I always feel that I cannot bear the responsibility similar to that of a caregiver."
"Responsibility? I didn't expect you, Lingshou, to reach this point earlier than me." String string suddenly became serious, "Lingshou, do you still remember what one of the conditions for becoming a registered mechanic is? It is treatment.
Any research must be completed meticulously, no matter how difficult the actual operation of that research is.”
"This is the responsibility of being a registered mechanic. As the nominal master of the humanoid girl, the mechanic also has specific responsibilities. You are probably confused about that responsibility, Lingshou, or it happened before you completed it.
That kind of thinking, as expected, you still like it subconsciously, planning in advance what will happen in the future."
"...You are right about string strings. I admit that this is my first time doing this kind of thing, and it is also something I am not good at. I need enough time to try this thing, but I need a delivery date
, probably less than a month away." Lingshou said while maintaining the tone of a researcher.
"Are you saying that so modestly? I didn't expect that you have always been the most confident magician, but sometimes you are not confident." String string covered his mouth and snickered.
"By the way, does the humanoid girl you plan to create have a name or a tentative codename?"
Lingshou didn't hide anything and said directly: "Well, not long ago, I came up with a tentative code name, let's call it [Ji Colorful]."
String String weighed the code name, "[Extreme Color]? It's really a unique name. Endless colors come together. I am looking forward to more and more what kind of works of art you can create with your clever hands."
"Speaking of which, I have never personally participated in creating a humanoid girl. After hearing what you said, Lingshou, I am probably a little eager to try it."
"Xing String, you... forget it. The process of creating a humanoid girl is not as simple as you think. I guess you don't have enough strength in String String now."
