Don’t Cry

Chapter 24

Tang Ran followed the servant into the front yard of Tang's house. +++ Catino Novel Network www.wuxiaspot.com

When she came out of the gravel path leading to the main entrance of the main house, she heard the sound of the car engine. Judging from the sound volume, it seems to be a freight car with a large displacement.

Thinking that his bionic robot should have been transported by this freight car, Tang Ran's originally low mood finally burst into waves of joy.

Tang Ran's pace sped up unconsciously.

As the sound of the engine got closer and closer, Tang Ran heard a familiar voice, a hippy smiling face that can be heard only by the tone of the voice, it was the voice of the int store manager Tan Yunchang:

"Uncle Tang, since Tang Ran lives in a partial house, let's go in from the back door over there. Please also inform the security guard over there to find out the license plate number of the car hired by our laboratory. The robot is precious. We will have to take it back for testing and maintenance. If you are forced to come out every time, I would be embarrassed."

Standing in front of the car, Tang Shixun said hesitantly: "Do you still need to return it for repairs?"

Tan Yunchang said haha, "It's not a repair, it's basic maintenance. Especially the micro-motors and the like, which have too many parts and components, and they can easily break down if they are not careful."

Tang Shixin nodded, "Well, I will inform the security personnel at the side door."

"Okay, thank you Uncle Tang!"

"you are welcome……"

While Tang Shixin was talking, Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Tang Ran walking out. He turned around and walked back two steps. After hesitating, he still didn't help her. He just said aloud, "Xiaoran, Luo Zhan laboratory sent you a bionic robot. Do you want to open it?"

After Tang Shixin finished speaking, Tang Ran didn't have time to respond. Tan Yunchang choked awkwardly behind him, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "I'm sorry, Uncle Tang, I can't watch it now. I have to wait for the evening."

Tang Shixin was taken aback and turned back: "Why have to wait for the evening?"

"The current power supply device of this robot converts solar energy into electric energy and stores it in a battery, and it can only be charged in this special mechanical box." Tan Yunchang said in accordance with the draft prepared earlier.

Tang Shixin looked at the cuboid mechanical box on the car and asked suspiciously, "Then it's not fully charged yet?"

"Yes," Tan Yunchang said, "You also know that the efficiency of solar energy conversion to electrical energy is relatively low. This robot has too many micro motors, consumes a lot of power, and has poor endurance, so it must be fully charged before it can be used normally."

Tang Shixin asked subconsciously, "When will we wait?"

"Almost," Tan Yunchang pretended to be calculating, "Every night at 8 o'clock, it can maintain two or three hours of battery life."

"So..."

Tang Shixin didn’t know much about AI. In addition, the latest technology of humanoid bionic robots is also a rarity in China. The specific parameters are completely blind to ordinary people, and he can’t tell whether Tan Yunchang’s words are true or false. Up.

Tang Shixin gestured regretfully, "Then you can send the robot directly to the partial house. When you need it, you can enter through the partial door, and I will let you know."

"Okay, then Uncle Tang, you are busy, I'll send it there first or go back to hand over." "Yeah."

Tan Yunchang is going to leave.

Tang Ran stood by, feeling like a little ant crawling on a hot pot, she couldn't help it. At this time, when Tan Yunchang was about to leave, she quickly asked, "Can I go there together?"

Tan Yunchang stopped unexpectedly, and then looked at Tang Shixin.

Tang Shixin asked hesitantly, "Xiao Ran, are you going over here?"

Tang Ran nodded without hesitation.

Tang Shixin said: "Then I will let someone send you off"

"Don't be so troublesome, Uncle Tang, it's just that we're on the way, and we just pass the people together." Tan Yunchang took the conversation neatly.

Tang Shixin frowned, "It seems that your freight car has no extra space? And Xiaoran is not suitable for this kind of small airtight cabin."

Tan Yunchang smiled: "That's right, it's just behind the car with the mechanical box."

Tang Shixin disapproved and said, "How dangerous is that?"

Tan Yunchang: "Our train fence is well done. As long as Sister Tang Ran doesn't worry about jumping off the car secretly, there won't be any problems."

Tang Shixin wanted to say something, so he listened to the light and quiet voice next to him: "It's fine if I go with them, and don't bother others to send it."

Tang Shixin turned around, "Xiao Ran..."

Tang Ran didn't give him a chance to stop. She had already held her blind stick and tapped the ground tentatively, and walked to Tan Yunchang, "Manager, can you help me to the back of the car?"

"Of course, of course." Tan Yunchang responded repeatedly.

Tan Yunchang helped Tang Ran into the body of the freight truck and stopped by the mechanical box. Tan Yunchang glanced with a guilty conscience at the metal box with special ventilation holes on the side, and said to Tang Ran, "You sit here. If you feel insecure, hold the box. There are handrails here."

Tang Ran went up tentatively (touching Mo) and asked softly, "Can't you pull it away?"

"Of course not, the door is locked inside, the box is locked, it won't open!"

Tang Ran nodded, "Yeah."

Tan Yunchang jumped out of the car neatly and said goodbye to Tang Shixin with a smile before returning to the passenger seat in front of the car.

"Sister Tang Ran, hold it, we are going to set off."

"Ok."

With the sound of the engine running, the freight car bypassed the main entrance and headed towards the side door of the Tang family along the periphery of the entire Tang family compound.

Tang Ran sat in the swaying car, holding the door handle tightly.

The front entrance of the Tang family was getting further and further away from her, and the soreness and swelling in her heart seemed to disappear a little.

The girl put her forehead on the cool box, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and she whispered:

"Hello, robot."

"Starting today, the two of us will live together."

The girl closed her eyes and leaned on the cool mechanical box.

She didn't hear

Hidden in the sound of the engine's operation, the mechanical box made a very soft noise when her words fell.

.

With Tang Shixin’s notice, the freight car that Tan Yunchang had taken from the laboratory was smoothly released at the side door of the Tang house.

It's just that the side door is in the backyard, where there are basically only gravel paths and green trees for people to walk on. The freight truck has just driven into the side door and can only stop after a short distance.

Tan Yunchang complained about getting out of the car, and while walking back, he murmured to Lin Qianhua who also got out of the driver's seat: "This is the Tang family's partial house? Are you sure you can live in? I drive so far away and it's still so desolate inside. I thought I was in a hut in a horror story."

Lin Qianhua was frightened, and stared at him angrily: "Senior Tan, don't you scare me now?"

"Who frightened you, I'm telling the truth." Despite saying this, Tan Yunchang still stopped complaining.

There were obviously no people in the backyard, and even the servants who came in were not seen. Only the security personnel responsible for looking after the side door followed the car in.

After Tan Yunchang stopped in the car, he helped Tang Ran out of the car and greeted Lin Qianhua to lead it well. He then signaled to the two security personnel: "This is the bionic robot. The two of you can just move the mechanical box down."

The two agreed.

One of them got on the car and pushed down the mechanical box with rollers. Tan Yunchang was originally looking at Tang Ran's direction. When he turned his head inadvertently, his eyelids jumped and he almost jumped up on the spot.

"Hey, hey, hey! Be careful, ancestor!"

The two security guards were dumbfounded by him and stopped.

Tan Yunchang still blasted his hairs in horror on the spot: "Can this thing be pushed down directly, huh?? Do you know what's in it?"

Tan Yunchang bit the tip of his tongue and swallowed the word "person" that was almost (off tuo).

One of the security personnel muttered dissatisfiedly: "Isn't it the bionic robot for this little girl? Shouldn't it be such a baby?"

Tan Yunchang sneered: "Do you know how much the bionic robot costs for an order?"

The security guard glanced at him: "How much can you ask for? One hundred thousand?"

"Excuse me, add a 0 after 100,000." Tan Yunchang grunted and looked at the other's face (color), adding: "Change the currency unit to US dollars."

"..."

The air was silent for ten seconds, and the two security personnel were dumbfounded, and said in unison: "One million dollars?"

Tan Yunchang thought about the pain of the prodigal criminals in the int laboratory, and learned that Luo Zhan smiled coldly: "This is still the discounted price of the main customer, and ordinary people can't rank the order number with money."

"..."

The two security personnel did not speak again.

Afterwards, they pushed and pulled the roller mechanical box market, their expressions, movements and even their voices were cautious, as if holding a piece of fragile glass lump, and escorted them all the way to the side house.

After the boxes were placed, the two security personnel left.

Tan Yunchang and Lin Qianhua looked at the environment of the partial house, and their expressions were a bit unsightly.

There was a long silence, but Tan Yunchang spoke first: "Sister Tang Ran, your family... arrange for you to live here by yourself?"

"Here, it's pretty good." Tang Ran, who has been led by Tang Shixin, said softly, "Three meals and snacks and fruits will be delivered. If I need anything, I can call the main house or the side building. ."

Lin Qianhua couldn't help it, "but they are too perfunctory, not even a person to take care of." He didn't finish speaking, and Tan Yunchang glanced at him, and had to swallow again.

Tang Ranqing smiled lightly: "Mr. Tang wants to arrange for me to live here. I myself refused."

Tan Yunchang was taken aback: "Why?"

Tang Ran's eyelashes trembled, but the corners of his eyes were still bent, "The people in the family... don't like me very much and are reluctant to come over. I don't want them and me to be embarrassed."

Tan Yunchang was so serious that his brows were frowned.

Tang Ran didn't want to win sympathy on this issue. She quickly changed the subject and asked softly: "Is the robot still dormant?"

"Ah, yes." Tan Yunchang responded with a guilty conscience.

Tang Ran: "How long does his work last?"

Lin Qianhua answered: "Two to three hours."

Tang Ran nodded.

Tan Yunchang's eyes motioned to Lin Qianhua, and Lin Qianhua said knowingly: "However, the situation at the beginning is quite special. We need to do some data collection and feedback in time, so we will send a laboratory car over after 10 o'clock every night. Pick him up...cough, come and move him back."

"Okay." Tang Ran thought for a while, and then asked, "Then after he runs out of power, do I need me to charge him (plug in the cha)?"

"No, no, of course not!" Tan Yunchang almost shook his head into a rattle.

Lin Qianhua also hurriedly followed up: "He has an automatic navigation system, which can automatically return to the mechanical box and lock it before the battery runs out. The whole process can be recognized by voice commands. You don't need to worry about the rest."

Tan Yunchang echoed: "Yes."

Tang Ran was a little surprised: "So amazing?"

"It's nothing," Tan Yunchang wiped his sweat with a guilty conscience, "In this regard, you can treat him as a robot sweeping that can automatically return to its position."

Tang Ran's eyes were slightly bent: "Okay."

Before leaving, Lin Qianhua urged Tang Ran with anxiety: "This home bionic robot is still dominated by the companion function. Hundreds of thousands of language modules allow him to communicate more intelligently than ordinary voice assistants; but other functions It's more limited, so it's best not to try it lightly." Tang Ran nodded, "Well, I see."

Tan Yunchang: "Sister Tang Ran, this robot... is more expensive. If something goes wrong, you must call me before you decide."

"it is good."

"..."

After thousands of warnings, Lin Qianhua and Tan Yunchang drove back in the car with great anxiety.

Leaving the Tang house, Lin Qianhua in the car asked anxiously, "Is this really okay?"

Tan Yunchang sighed in his seat, "Then how do I know?"

"I still think Brother Zhan's plan is too dangerous. We should persuade him to order."

Tan Yunchang: "What kind of son is that ancestor whose heart is higher than the sky, can we persuade you?"

"Then what if it is discovered by the Tang family?"

Tan Yunchang snorted: "I think we still pray that the Luo family will not know about it, especially the old man. If we know that we have wrapped his little grandson as a birthday present for the little girl, we will not kill us. ?"

"..."

Imagining the consequences, Lin Qianhua nodded in pain.

At the same time, the Tang family was partial to the house.

Two servants brought Tang Ran's dinner tonight in a multi-layer lunch box.

For convenience, when Tang Ran dines, they waited in the small dining room connected to the living room. When Tang Ran was eating, the two of them stood in the corner and chatted quietly without any scruples.

"Can the young master of the Luo family really come over tonight?"

"It should be true to hear the old lady talking with Mr. Luo like this."

"With that said, the marriage contract between the two families is about to be finalized, right?"

"Guess so."

"Our prospective aunt must go down. I don't know how many families are going to get red eyes. Nothing else, just talk about the Luo family's Gao Zhi, who doesn't want to climb?

"But the truth about the background and appearance of the family, plus the age-appropriate conditions, no matter how you think Luo Qian is the most suitable."

"Of course, the old gentleman from the Luo family must be the same. Considering that the three generations of the Tang family have not yet had a male, and now he is married to Luo Qian, he is not sure how much he will gain in the future, at least he will definitely not suffer."

"..."

Tang Ran ate a dinner without a taste.

When the two servants cleaned up the dinner plates and left, she was finally left alone in the partial house.

The air is also cold and deserted.

Tang Ran stayed and sat at the table.

Until she couldn't hold it, she slowly bent over and leaned on the table.

With her arm resting on her back, Tang Ran was silent in this strange darkness.

after a long time.

There was a very light voice in the air, and the tone of voice trembled slightly:

"Happy birthday to you... happy birthday to you... happy birthday to you"

"　 Da."

There was a soft sound in the darkness, suddenly cutting off the trembling song Tang Ran sang to herself.

The girl was startled, and slowly sat upright.

Quiet for a while.

When Tang Ran almost thought it was her own illusion, she heard a voice ringing in this strange darkness:

"Good evening, my...Master."
