Traveler and Gesakuma

Father Deman is a cleaner in District A. From District D to District A, the straight-line distance is relatively short, as long as you pass through the large open space in the middle of the back-shaped building.

However, Father Deman didn't choose that path, instead, he walked through Area C with the money and detoured to Area A.

Given the area covered by the Gesakuma Temple, such a route will take at least ten minutes longer than going directly through.

But the old man is very familiar with the road, as if he has been doing this for so many years of work.

Although I don't know why my father would look far away, but Qian Qian still silently followed behind and didn't say much.

Compared with the D area, which is mainly for living functions, the A area is much quieter, but the same security check is much stricter.

Almost every floor, he and Father Deman need to verify their identities again at the door, Zhinao tirelessly repeats the checks again and again.

After being inspected back and forth four or five times, they finally arrived at Papa Deman's division of labor.

Compared with the walls of the lively and warm area D, the walls and corridors here are much more normal. They are all surrounded by metal plates, and there is no trace of out-of-the-ordinary place.

It is still the high-space design of Gesakuma, but the space on the side of Area A is only higher.

In area D, only the shelves on the first floor are above 30 meters, and here, the shelves on every floor are so high.

I have heard for a long time that the AB districts are the main living and training places of the Gesakumars. Thinking about the indomitable figure of 'Gundam' when we first met, Qian Qian felt that such a design was a normal thing.

Such a high space is of course very good for the creatures walking through it, but it is not good news for the cleaning staff who are engaged in cleaning work.

According to the regulations in the work manual, cleaning staff need to clean the ground in the specified area every day, and clean the walls and roof once a week.

These tasks are planned in advance, and the workers only need to execute according to the plan.

Today is the day to clean the roof. The drop of more than 30 meters is definitely not something that people can conquer with simple tools.

Every time to clean the ceiling and walls, Father Deman needs to step on the safety ladder, climb up the ladder fully armed with a safety rope and tools, and wipe it bit by bit with a long pole with a cotton cloth on the retractable top.

This is a very hard job. When I saw him coming down before mopping the floor for the money, he was covered in sweat, and the overalls he was wearing were soaked in sweat.

Seeing how tired his father was, Qian Qian once again suggested that he should go up and wipe the roof.

Father Deman, who came down to take a sip of water and breathed slowly, shook his head and denied: "Wiping things on a high place seems simple, but it requires skill. For a novice like you, the ceiling may not be wiped properly. The person fell. If you really want to help, next time you wipe the wall, you can try to do it slowly from the bottom to the top."

This is the skill and experience of Father Deman who has worked for many years. In order to let Qianqian learn faster and better, he is almost teaching him from hand to hand.

The two sat on the ground and chatted for a while. Father Deman, who felt that his physical strength had recovered, got up, climbed up the fixed safety ladder, and continued his cleaning work.

Although he knew that once the safety ladder was fixed, it would never be moved unless it was malicious damage, but Qian Qian still couldn't help subconsciously holding the bottom of the safety ladder with his hands when his father climbed the ladder.

After Dai saw that his father finally got up safely and hung up the safety rope, Qian Qian watched him wiping the roof bit by bit with a metal pole, and the doubts that had been hidden in his heart surfaced again.

Afraid of the hard work of the old man, he quickly took the initiative to run to the restaurant to order food before dragging the money on the ground.

Watching him come back with two set meals carefully, Father Deman said dumbfoundedly: "Did you forget before Qianqian that the robot in the cafeteria provides free home delivery service."

Qian Qian, who was used to bringing food home from the cafeteria, suddenly realized when he heard the words, and couldn't help but wryly smiled when he thought about how carefully he walked along the way to prevent the soup in the bowl from splashing out.

However, the oolong this time gave Qian Qian a chance to ask questions in his heart.

So relying on the smooth wall, Qian Qian asked Father Deman while chewing the food in his mouth: "Father, there is something I have been thinking about for a long time, can you explain it for me?"

The old man who was drinking the soup nodded and said: "You ask, as long as I know something, I will tell you."

"Actually, it's nothing, but when I went back to Area D, I found that Areas C and D were also cleaning the roof. But they are all using cleaning robots. Those little things are amazing. A few wheels are swept away, and all the dirt is gone. And they are good at climbing, and there is no problem at all when climbing up the wall and jumping upside down. What I can't figure out is that since they are so easy to use, why do the two areas of AB still need Wouldn't it be convenient and safe to use them for manual cleaning?"

Hearing this, Father Deman put down the soup bowl in his hand and replied: "This starts with the habits of Gesakuma adults. Aqian, do you know what Gesakuma is?"

"I know, Dad, you told me. It is the gentleman who can transform from a human into a 'mecha' when I first came to this world." Qian will never forget that scene in this life replied before.

Hearing Qian Qian mentioning the Stone Tomb Forest, Father Deman's eyes showed a touch of sadness again.

He stopped eating, wiped his hands with a wet towel and said: "About those adults, you should learn more specific things later. I will just briefly explain it now. The adults of Gesakuma are metal Races are naturally very sensitive to electronic wave bands. Although those wave bands did not cause any harm to them, they do not like metal life. Therefore, in their daily life, especially in areas where they rest, electronic products should be used as little as possible. Take a look around here, except for some necessary electronic equipment, are you not seeing some auxiliary equipment that is very common in Area D?"

Hearing the words, Qian Qian looked around, and saw that the surroundings were exactly as the old man said.

While chatting and eating, Qian Qian quickly ate up a normal-tasting but full-bodied energy meal.

Seeing that there was still a lot of food left on Papa Deman's dinner plate, Qianqian knew that the other party would have to eat for a while.

In order not to delay work, Qianqian picked up the two buckets and said, "Dad, take your time, I'll go to the water room to change some clean water and come back."

Hearing this, the old man pointed him to the location of the water room with his hand, and specifically instructed: "This water must be poured into the drainage tank where the waste water can be recycled. After purification, it can still be used as production water."

Having already chatted with Dad, he knew that the resources of this planet are extremely precious, Qian Qian, heard the words and replied as he walked: "Understood, don't worry, I will never forget it."

Like other floors, the water room on the side of Area A is also on the far right side of each floor.

Qianqian followed the prompts to pour the sewage in the bucket into the recyclable drainage tank, then put the buckets on the metal table on the other side and put them side by side.

Zhinao will automatically analyze the water-receiving containers and give different water samples according to different uses. For scrubbing water like theirs, Zhinao will give the reclaimed water after treatment.

Taking advantage of the time when the brain was analyzing and injecting water, Qian Qian, who had nothing to do, stood by the wall of the water room.

Looking out from here, you can just see the opposite District D. It can be seen that when this building was built, people intentionally separated the public areas of District A and District D with BC.

In the entire building, only the two areas of AD do not have any connection.

As for why such a design was made, a small person like Qian Qian was not interested. What attracted his attention now was the large green space outside the floor.

Although it's only been a day since he's been here, everything Qian Qian has seen so far is made of metal, and even if there are places that have changed color, they are made of special metal alloys.

During the small talk just now, and after Qian Qian's deliberate questioning, he realized that this city seems to have a lot of people and a lot of land.

In order to ensure the development of the city and the lives of residents, even the land where they grow food has been carefully planned, which is why food made from pure natural ingredients is very expensive.

And the vast open space surrounded by the outside was actually planted with a lot of grass and flowers.

Those grasses and flowers have been carefully maintained, and they grow around the building according to the trend, leaving only a few basketball court-like open spaces near the B area.

Although it is surrounded by buildings on all sides, the lighting and ventilation in this most central place are very good.

A gust of wind blew by, and Qian Qian could even see the delicate petals of some flowers being blown away by the wind, spinning in the air with the wind.

As if bewitched, looking at the petals being blown towards him by the wind, Qian Qian used the newly learned wall control method to open the ventilation window reserved on the side of the water room, and stretched out his hand. go out.

It was such a coincidence that just as he stretched out his hand, one of the petals fell into his palm.

Seeing this, Qian Qian was very happy, but before he could take his hand back, another gust of wind blew by, and the petal immediately flew away with the wind.

Just when Qianqian felt that it was a pity, the intelligent brain at the water receiving station notified that the bucket was full.

Hearing that Qian Qian didn't care about those petals anymore, he immediately closed the transom window and walked back with two buckets of water.

After he left, the petals that were contaminated with his breath were blown into the sky by the wind, and then gradually fell back to the ground, some of them just landed in the middle of the open lawn.
