Chapter 17 A New Beginning

The dawn sky was blue-purple. Looking down from the hillside, the fire in the slums had been extinguished, and smoke was still rising from the ruined walls.Fire trucks and police cars were parked in all directions, and a large number of police and public officials were maintaining order. The poor were gathered, counted, received relief food, and were prepared to be separated and resettled.

Shao Jun was bending down to do artificial respiration for Bruce. The wings on his back had long since disappeared. The torn opening in his thin shirt exposed his strong and powerful muscles and shoulder blades. What a pair of beautiful rounds once stretched out there. Huan's wings.It is not very useful to configure wings for domestic humanoid robots, because the structure of humanoid robots is inherently insufficient, and they cannot fly too far. The unmanned aerial vehicle, the wings made of natural golden ibis wing feathers pasted on the mithril wing skeleton are even more useless. Of course, because they are beautiful enough, they completely conform to the aesthetics of the imperial nobles.

Ke Xia glanced at Ling Lan'er who was still concerned about observing Bruce's state, moved the joints that were still in sharp pain, and reminded Ling Lan: "Don't talk about what happened today."

Ling Lan'er hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I will definitely not tell anyone about today's matter." She glanced at Ke Xia, who was still maintaining an arrogant posture after the embarrassing fight and fire last night, and then glanced at the still Shao Jun, who was doing first aid for Bruce, murmured: "I always thought you were from good people before. It is very expensive to install such auxiliary equipment on your body."

Ke Xia saw that she didn't think that Shao Jun was a robot, but thought it was a prosthetic limb added by a normal person. This is very common on many people, some for special work needs, some for personal interests, and some are born with physical disabilities. He breathed a sigh of relief and ignored her question.

He only heard Bruce cough a few times, and woke up from the coma. Lily watched Bruce regain his breathing, and heaved a sigh of relief: "God bless, Bruce, how are you? Is there something wrong? "

Bruce was confused for a while before he recovered his memory. He reluctantly got up and moved, looked at them and said, "I'm fine. I escaped? Where is this place?" He turned his head and looked at the devastated Kibera Street below. He said blankly: "The house is burned down, there are so many policemen, we can't go back, sister, what should we do now."

Ling Lan'er's eyes were red and said: "There are not many things, if they are gone, just find another place."

Bruce stomped his feet, glanced at Ke Xia, and said angrily, "I told you not to meddle in your own business! If he obediently gave the money to others and sent them away, how could there be such a fire? It also caused trouble to the neighbors." It’s all right now! We don’t even have a place to stay! We don’t have household registration, we can’t even find a job, and if we are found by the police, we will be deported! What should we do now!”

Ke Xia unexpectedly did not refute Bruce, and said after a while: "We need to take a car to Lorraine, or you can go together."

Shao Jun glanced at Ke Xia, quite surprised by the change in Ke Xia's attitude. It is not a good plan to take two more civilians to the capital. Personal hit the road.But he didn't know what happened last night, and he had to act as a qualified robot in front of Ke Xia, the only one who knew his robot identity, so he kept silent.

Bruce chuckled: "Kyoto? You'll only live like a mouse if you go there! It's still a mouse from the countryside! Do you know how much the rent is over there? You even have to buy a glass of water!"

Ke Xia rolled his eyes: "What are you doing here? Hanging with mice forever? Be a mouse with peace of mind? The circle of people is very important. You are with those low-level people. Those people are not clear-headed. You just hang out with these people every day, and spend your whole life thinking about where to get leftovers, find a piece of clothing, and then find a black household to have a baby..." He glanced at Ling Laner, and after all, he still said that vicious sentence "Give birth to a daughter and sell it" swallowed it down: "Continue your old path? It's not because your sister saved me last night that I don't bother to talk to you. What is the capital? Are you going to pull it down? It's still in vain What a waste of my two ticket money!"

Bruce sneered disdainfully: "I care about you..."

Ling Lan'er suddenly interrupted her younger brother and said, "We're going to the capital too, please trouble brother Du Yin!" She glanced at Du Yin, her face flushed slightly: "We've been stuck here for many years, maybe we went to the capital, It’s good to have a breakthrough.”

Ke Xia saw her little action of looking at Shao Jun, and felt a little upset, but Ling Lan'er and the Blue siblings really saved her last night. A true nobleman will repay his kindness, and he will be kind to the poor and the poor. Weak people should have compassion.

He snorted coldly, but still endured it, completely forgetting that he is not much better than these two siblings now, at least after the sudden increase of two bus tickets, they even have problems eating.

In fact, there were many fewer people on the bus, and the overnight fire obviously affected many people. Shao Jun originally only prepared food and clothing for one person, but now two people were added suddenly, so he had to go to the bus before getting on the bus. Bought some extremely nasty but dry, hard and hungry black oat bread, and brought two extra jugs of water.

There are many mountain roads along the way, green mountains stretching endlessly, the car is spacious and clean, the travel bus can even be divided into a small room for four people, and there are emergency toilets for use, which makes Shao Jun's favorability for the alliance increase a bit, I have confirmed my reasons for choosing the alliance. After all, although the government always represents the interests of the ruling class, but only by looking at the basic livelihood of the people, you can know which side is more comfortable for ordinary people.

The careful Ling Lan'er still noticed that Shao Jun didn't eat much and his eyes were red. She thought that she and her younger brother dragged down their schedule, so she ate very little.

Shao Jun knew that she had misunderstood, but he couldn't explain it. He could only pretend to eat a little once in a while. This super-humanoid robot body can also imitate people's eating, but what they eat falls into the artificial stomach bag, and then they are disposed of privately. , This is a waste of food.

The days in the car were catered to Ling Laner gratefully, and Ke Xia was quite patient just after being rescued, so the few of them got along pretty well, so that Shao Jun came up with a new idea, he always wanted to leave Ke Xia It’s not bad to let Ke Xia have companions and people to live with now. Besides, Ling Lan’er is kind to Ke Xia, and Ke Xia is beginning to be patient with her. This is a good start, and she will gradually integrate into the life of the alliance, and then Forget the hatred and start a new life.That's right, Shao Jun never thought that Ke Xia could succeed in revenge. It was a battle between the royal family, the hatred of the country and the family, and it was not something an ant-like individual could fight against.

For Ke Xia, escaping, hiding his name, saving his life, and living an ordinary life in the alliance, marrying a wife and having children, is the best ending.Revenge or something, time will dilute the hatred. When he grows up, realizes his own powerlessness, accepts the life of ordinary people, and gets used to the days of the alliance, he will never want to take revenge again.

And meeting and accepting new friends is a good start.
