"'White Bird Poetry' is an assembled light mech newly developed by AG Company, because it is more suitable for women, but in fact there are not many rich women playing mechs. This thing is not practical on the battlefield. Defense Very bad, it can only be said to be a gorgeous and expensive toy, so the sales in the alliance are very average. Only last year, I suddenly received an order from the Empire, ordered a full hundred, and further improved the functions. Optimization requires lighter and more portable, fast speed, and reduces some attack performance. The customer should be a pseudonym, but it is obviously very rich, and paid the balance in one lump sum.”

Hua Jianfeng looked at Ke Xia who just got off the mecha, and explained with a smile.

Rodin was awakened in the distance. He was still wearing a nightgown, his eyes were sleepy, and Estin lay on his shoulders. He looked at them from a distance, and asked the guards to confirm that there was nothing serious. They should not be needed. Turned back to the room to rest.

Ke Xia took off his gloves and threw it to Huajianjiu beside him, saying: "Now Onegin can ask for anything from you, even this kind of customer information is open to you."

Hua Jianfeng smiled, and Ke Xia turned his head to see Hua Jianjiu coming in, and said indifferently: "The white birds are caught and interrogated, to see if they can be used, with the help of their power in the dungeon. Where is the old mecha? Have you caught it yet?"

He easily dealt with those white birds, and it was boring to chop flies with a big knife. Seeing that the mech had rushed out of the city, the military had already sent troops to chase them. He knew they couldn't escape, so he didn't bother to chase them. I went back, just waiting to interrogate those white birds, and by the way, use their strength to find Shao Jun.

Hua Jianjiu said: "I'm still chasing, but the garrison responded quickly and found the number and whereabouts of the mecha. The mecha has been completely damaged and cannot be repaired, so it will be eliminated together with other mechas. The auction is open, and the person who bought it has been found by the garrison and is being interrogated."

Ke Xia didn't take it seriously: "White Bird Society has many enemies, so it's not surprising to fight. It has been three days since the dungeon evacuation registration and there is still no news. I am worried that I can't find a breakthrough. The interrogation of those White Bird Society women Start as soon as possible."

Huajianjiu went away in response, Huajianfeng smiled and said: "White Bird Society knows that you are investigating them, so why dare to make such a big noise and throw yourself into the trap. I am afraid that some people hope that they will not be able to escape, and deliberately provoking them is not enough." Not surprising, I have a hunch that the military mecha, I'm afraid I can't find the user, don't think too highly of the imperial army, this is not the soldier you led."

Ke Xia looked up at him, then turned to look for a guard: "You take a team to track down that military mecha."

Hua Jianfeng said: "Why don't you ask Ode to bring some people with him, I'll bring some people here this time."

Huajianfeng's intuition has always been very accurate, so he will follow up on the things he cares about immediately. The Huajian family is good at tracking, spying, and lurking. Worried about him, he also put several necessary people on the crew to ensure his safety.

Ke Xia nodded, and Ode also took the order to lead people and the guard out.

After dawn, Hua Jianjiu, who had been interrogated overnight, came back and returned: "Those prisoners of the White Bird Society, the leader is Leila, 38 years old, and his position in the White Bird Society is to enforce the rules, and he is responsible for the implementation of the rules and punishments. Yes, it is said that it was a traitor in the Hunting Club. A woman named Rose, the former vice president of the White Bird Club, was pregnant. They tracked the vice president to the suburban machine repair room. In the machine repair room, Rose I was taken away by a young guy who turned off the lights and took advantage of the chaos. I couldn’t see his face in the dark. It should be the family of Rose. According to the confession, Rose’s father was originally a repairer of mechs and agricultural machinery. I don’t know where to get an old machine. A came out to fight them, and it turned into the situation of mecha battle last night. We are sending people to check the background investigation of that Rose, Rose's family, and the renter of the factory building, but the preliminary judgment should not lie, because several The interrogation of the woman separately is consistent, and it is also consistent with the statement of the owner of the mech."

Hua Jianjiu turned up another statement: "Here is the statement of the owner of the standard mecha that was auctioned at the second-hand military mecha auction. Kilro, who has a small title bought by his ancestors, is 56 years old. I have always liked mechs, and this time I bought this second-hand mecha from an auction because I was greedy for cheap. But I sent it to several famous mecha shops and rejected it, saying that it could not be repaired. Thinking that the other party actually repaired the engine, he paid a part of the deposit in advance, and the other party repaired it and delivered it. Yesterday afternoon was the time they agreed to inspect and accept, and he even paid for a retired soldier to inspect and accept it."

"During the acceptance inspection, it was found that the spirit bolt of the mecha had been completely damaged and malfunctioned. The mecha couldn't be repaired. It would be too expensive to replace the spirit bolt. The mecha still needs a lot of money, and the shopkeeper is pressing him for the final payment, so he simply doesn’t want the mecha. According to the confession, the man in charge of the repair, Ouluo, is 69 years old, and his daughter is the one who takes care of the business. She is little Jasmine. They had just checked and accepted that afternoon, and speculated that the transport vehicle was carrying the old mechs that were rejected after acceptance. On the way, they met Rose who was being hunted down. Paul activated the mech."

But Ke Xia suddenly raised his head: "The spirit plug is damaged?" His sensitive nerves were suddenly touched: "The spirit bolt is damaged, so how did that mecha fight against Shiratori last night?"

"Do it manually?"

Huajian Jiu was startled, but Huajian Feng quickly stood up and connected to Ode's communication.

Soon Ode appeared on the light screen, looked up to see them, and said succinctly: "I didn't catch anyone. The mecha ran out of energy and was found on the river. It turned on automatic navigation. It is estimated that people went down on the way, and deliberately let the mecha go down." A drove the navigation along the river, misleading the tracking, and initially judged that he should have gone to an abandoned air-raid shelter along the road, but there are too many air-raid shelters here. After the war, almost no one maintained and repaired these air-raid shelters, extending in all directions, and there are homeless people inside. There are also many, and there are no cameras, just like the situation in the city, it is a bit difficult to track down their whereabouts."

Hua Jianfeng had already said in a deep voice: "Have you checked the spirit lock of that second-hand mecha? Is it damaged? Can you see how the driver manipulated that mecha?"

Ode raised his head and said: "The energy is exhausted, and the cockpit of the mental net and the spirit plug is not used. The driver should control the mech through manual operation. We found blood on the armrest of the manual operation driver's seat. The driver It should be injured, we collected blood, hair and other biological information and took it back for testing later.”

Ke Xia and Hua Jianfeng looked at each other, and they both saw the speculation in each other's eyes that they didn't dare to say.Ke Xia's throat tightened: "Is the injury serious? I mean a lot of blood?"

Ode was a little dazed: "It's only a few drops, so the injury shouldn't be serious—otherwise, it wouldn't be so effective."

Ke Xia and Hua Jianfeng's expressions slowed down slightly, and Hua Jianfeng murmured: "I have repaired a mecha that other mecha shops can't repair, and under the siege of several people, I can save a pregnant woman who is inconvenient. He also manually drove the mecha, rushed out of the city wall after the battle, and fled with people..."

Ke Xia's jaw tightened, and he told Hua Jianjiu: "I want to see the video of the battle between that mecha and Shiratori's mecha."

Hua Jianjiu hurriedly said: "Before, I asked the Yueyao City Police Station to call the camera videos along the road, and they have been sorted out and sent... But the police station said that many of the cameras over there were in disrepair for a long time, and they had already broken down. Some surveillance video."

He pressed the light screen, and the image popped up. Outside a huge machine repair room, a woman in a white dress with a protruding abdomen pushed the door in first. Hua Jian said with wine: "This is the rose, the vice president of the White Bird Society. One of the founders of the White Bird Society, participated in the Imperial Army, and was included in the medical rescue team."

Soon several women in white robes and cloaks also broke through the door lock with a gun and pushed the door open.

Not long after, the display light on the glass window of the machine repair room suddenly turned off, and then the glass window was pierced in the darkness, and a leather rope was thrown out from inside. Not long after, a tall figure was seen holding a bloated woman from inside Leaped out, the video was blurry because it was too far away, only faintly visible that the man's hair was dyed silvery white.He descended from the window sill more than ten meters high in one go, his long legs showed excellent jumping ability, even though he was holding a woman, he still flexibly stepped on every climbing point, showing quite strong movement nerve.

They landed on the ground, then quickly boarded a mechanical delivery truck and rushed to the road.Soon those deacons of the White Bird Society also flew out from inside and followed closely.

Then the screen switched to the road.

Although the whole journey was blurry, Ke Xia's eyelids twitched when the slender figure flipped onto the mecha nimbly, and then the mecha was activated, and with a beautiful kick, the white bird flew tens of meters away.

Hua Jianfeng couldn't help laughing: "Although he has lost his memory, he is still so good at fighting, and he still seems to be a provocative personality."

Hua Jianjiu looked at the patriarch in a daze: "The patriarch means that this is...Baby Jun?"

Hua Jianfeng sighed: "Who else could it be? I thought he was in the dungeon, and he wasted so much energy. It turned out that he was hiding in the mecha repair factory. This is unexpected and reasonable. He assembled it himself. Those who raised Tianbao! It’s not useful, who dares to hide a fugitive slave? Obviously he brought greater benefits to the other party, no wonder we can’t find him.”

Ke Xia turned his head, and his sharp blue eyes stared at Kaze Huajian: "He assembled Tianbao?" Yes, it was his words... It was strange that Gu Lei suddenly wanted to give him a mecha at that time, but he was too Young, full of hatred, thinks he is the center of the world, does not realize that these coincidences are not coincidences, but his robot has been silently helping him, and he didn't even see the graduation ceremony-what is his robot still? How many things are hidden from him?

Hua Jianfeng smiled: "Yes, he worked hard for more than half a year at the racing track behind Matsuma Villa. He assembled it all by himself without sleep and rest. Now that he thinks about it, there should be someone guiding him, it should be Gu Lei. .In the end, I somehow turned the corner and delivered it to you. You have been unaware of the abnormality of the robot around you. At that time, I already suspected that he was not an ordinary robot."

Ke Xia closed his eyes, then opened them again: "Did Luo Dan return the memory to you?"

Hua Jianfeng stood up: "Yes, Xia, I have always suspected that he is not a robot, but a human being. He is not like a robot who knows nothing, but like Luo Dan and the others, he has an unknown human nature. In the past, the soul should not have been born out of thin air, it should have been a human being.” Otherwise, artificial intelligence has been born for so many years, why have you not heard of any artificial intelligence that gave birth to a soul, only one?

"But none of this is important. Let's talk about it when we get him back. With the information on this iron-clad father and this pair of sisters, it shouldn't be difficult to find him. We just have to pray that he won't leave them again, so, It’s better to be quick, and also to prevent Shiratori from chasing and killing them.”

Ke Xia clenched his hands and said in a low voice: "I will find him." Whether he is a human soul living in a robot, or a robot giving birth to a soul, it is the same, for him, that is companionship his soul.

He stood up and ordered: "I'm going to have a look at that machine repair room." Jun didn't have much time to operate in the mech, and if he was injured, he should be in the machine repair room. He was worried that he had a gunshot wound, high temperature burns Mouth bleeding can cause less bleeding, but can be serious if left untreated.

He had to confirm it himself—he also wanted to see where he was hiding these days. He was tortured by his own imagination these days and couldn't sleep at night. In the narrow, dark and damp place, he either couldn't get in in his dreams, or he woke up with a cold hand when he reached out and touched it.

The large machine repair room was opened, and it could be seen that on the undamaged shelves, parts and various tools were neatly placed. Although the place was high and wide enough, it still inevitably smelled of metal rust and engine oil. .And a lot of bullets were found on the crooked shelves and beams in the middle, it can be seen that it has indeed experienced a fierce battle.

Ke Xia frowned at the unpleasant smell, and said coldly: "Look for the blood and see where it was injured."

It wasn't hard to find, and soon they found bloodstains on the sharp edge of the broken glass window, presumably it was scratched when carrying someone through, so they probably didn't get shot.The staff carefully collected all the genetic information they could, bloodstains, hair, etc.

With a dark face, Ke Xia jumped down, turned out and found the place where Shao Jun lived these days, a small secret attic turned up from the tool room behind the machine repair room.

The attic is very clean and the light is not bad. Through the glass windows, you can see the blue sky outside and the trees in the factory room on the half slope.A few clean coarse clothes and trousers were neatly folded, and the small and narrow bed didn’t even have a sheet, only a towel quilt that obviously couldn’t cover people, obviously it wasn’t prepared for men in the first place, Ke Xia almost I can imagine his Jun lying on the top and having to shrink his feet and feel aggrieved.

The cup is a dull stainless steel metal cup. There are so few things in the attic that it almost makes people feel that there is no one living here. The curled "Mechanical Repair Practical Manual" is on the table, and there is a small and crude notebook beside it. The cover is a beautiful cartoon star princess holding a harp. It is obviously an old thing used by a little girl. pencil.

He sat down on the narrow bed, his tall body curled up into an uncomfortable position almost immediately, and there was nowhere to rest his overly long legs. He frowned, and stretched out his hand to flip through the notebook on the table in front of the window.

Even though he was hiding in this small attic, even though he couldn't remember anything, the young mechanic did not give up the pace of exploration and learning.The notebook is full of parts, and some sketches of mechanical diagrams. I think he is thinking hard about something. He should be recalling some sketches of repairs during the day. He repaired a mecha with a completely damaged engine within seven days, although there are still people repairing it with him. , but for a person who still has a wound on his neck, it is too heavy, and he does not know what he ate, whether the wound has become inflamed or worsened, and the repair shop owner does not know if he has treated him badly, but he can risk leaving such a A person of unknown origin, presumably a greedy person.

Ke Xia frowned, flipping through the small and rough book page by page. There were characters in the middle of the sketch, most of which were the names of some parts. At the beginning, the strokes were a little clumsy and hesitant, but gradually became more and more Proficient, turned to the back, it can already be seen that it is completely an adult's writing style, calm and smooth with elegant air.

His robot has been conscientiously playing a qualified robot in front of him. He has never seen him write, and he will only print out printed test papers for him to write.

Ke Xia's eyes fell on those scribbled "shotguns" and "howitzers", and suddenly he took out the communicator, adjusted it, and called out Du Yin's handwriting that he asked the original alliance to call out a while ago. , These handwritings include Duin's handwriting when he was a researcher in the AG company, and when he was the captain of his guard in the Alliance Army. This is not much, and it was provided by Lieutenant General Morin.

Mo Lin has been promoted to lieutenant general in the alliance. When he heard that Ke Xia wanted to find Du Yin's handwriting, he was a little surprised and provided a piece of paper: "This is when the marshal was suddenly detained. Captain Du Yin took us to a meeting to discuss countermeasures. I wrote it at the time, and I kept this piece of paper later. He is really an excellent soldier. Facing the situation where you were suddenly detained and lost the news, he was calm and calm, and single-handedly planned to lure the three generals to the Star Valley Fortress. Perfect The situation was under control. It was the best military operation I've ever experienced in my life, and I'm ashamed of my childish attitude towards him at that time, and I wish I had the opportunity to spend time with him again."

Those handwriting unfolded and perfectly coincided with the strokes on the notebook in front of him.

Ke Xia took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and his nose was slightly sore.He knew that there was already too much evidence in front of him, proving that the soul in this incredible replicant was the soul in the robot's body, but every time he discovered something special about that soul, the past they had spent together, Everything his robot has ever done for him stands out.

He always thought that he spent so many years alone, that no one could understand his pain, loneliness, resentment, hatred and withdrawnness.However, there has always been a strong and silent soul who tenderly guarded him, shared for him, and spent those difficult moments with him.It is not an unconditional obedience to the master and guarding the master according to the orders engraved in the center, everything comes from the autonomous behavior of the soul that is nobler and more independent than many people.

He voluntarily took him away to rescue him, he voluntarily raised him, he voluntarily stayed by his side when he was seriously ill, and he once wanted to leave him, but returned to him after he was exiled, and then It has been an assistant for so many years.

The ferocious waves that engulfed everything in the long river of memory receded, revealing the crystal clear diamonds on the beach.

He turned to the last page of the notes on the simple small table, and there was a mecha sketch sketched there. It seemed that after heavy mecha repairs, the young repairman who had lost his memory seemed to be inadvertently in the corner of the notebook. In it, the word Ke Xia was written.

But the careful and neat handwriting, it seems that at the moment of writing, the owner is actually very cautious and careful.

On the slightly yellowed paper, a drop of teardrop fell down and shattered. Ke Xia pushed the book away to prevent more and more tears from getting wet on the book, and covered his hot eyes.
