Cannon Fodder's Humanoid Plug-in

Brother, I pick up trash to support you

Yan Chen looked at his brother, also lost in thought.

His elder brother Yan Shuo, 20 years old, has a gentle personality, always smiles on his face when he talks, and is very patient. He is often praised by neighbors as "warm-hearted".

But now, he is surrounded by several tall and burly young people, these people call him "Brother Shuo", it seems...

Yan Chen tilted his head blankly, looking at the young man named Jiang Fei, who arched his back slightly and gave him a flattering smile.

It seems that Yan Shuo is quite prestigious among these people.

Yan Chen thought of what he heard just now, the angry scolding voice, "I only have one younger brother".

He looked at Yan Shuo again.

"Little brother." Yan Shuo subconsciously pulled his stiff face, showing a gentle and honest smile, no different from usual.

"These are all my friends." He coughed lowly, walked up to Yan Chen, and introduced him one by one with his arms around his shoulders. In fact, he gave Jiang Fei a wink: "This is Jiang Fei, this is Zheng Sen, This is Jeffrey..."

"My younger brother, Yan Chen."

After receiving his hint, Zheng Sen and Jeffrey were still a little confused.

Jiang Fei was the first to react.

If I remember correctly, Brother Shuo said that his younger brother is 14 years old this year and his health is not very good, so he didn't go out much since he was a child, and he was very dependent on him.

The emphasis is on "dependence".

He understands this!

A child with a small social circle must be possessive of those close to him, which is the same as raising a baby.

If the bowl of water between parents is uneven, the neglected one will inevitably become hostile to the favored one.

So, brother Shuo must be afraid that his younger brother would feel uncomfortable when he heard them calling him big brother.

Jiang Fei rushed in front of Yan Chen with a stride, smiling brightly: "Yes, yes, we are friends, we just like to call each other big brother."

He pulled Zheng Sen, who was the strongest, and patted him on the shoulder: "You mean it! Brother Sen?"

Zheng Sen: "Ah? Ah! That's right!" If he doesn't reconcile, his shoulder may be slapped by Jiang Fei.

Zheng Sen's smile twisted, he strangled Jiang Fei's neck, and said with a friendly look: "Brother Fei is right."

"Cough, cough, cough!" Jiang Fei blushed from holding back, and forced a smile: "Brother Sen, brother Sen doesn't need to be so enthusiastic about me, don't scare our little brother."

These two people... Yan Shuo resisted the urge to touch his forehead, turned his face away, and didn't look at it.

Who would believe such a sloppy performance?

Yan Shuo was sadly thinking about how to explain it later, but Yan Chen chuckled softly.

Yan Shuo was startled, looked down, and found that Yan Chen was also looking up at him, revealing the shiny black eyes under the sun hat: "Brother, your friend is really interesting."

Did he believe it?

Yan Shuo breathed a sigh of relief, Jiang Fei and Zheng Sen also stopped fighting, and looked at Yan Chen with some curiosity.

The boy was wearing a simple "gas mask", revealing only a pair of clean eyes.

With a smile on his brow, he looked at Yan Shuo with trust in his eyes, and the hand that was tightly grasped on the satchel just now seemed to relax because of the other party's arrival, and naturally hung down by his side.

He looks like a docile white rabbit who is held in the arms of flowers raised in greenhouses on a livable planet.

But just like.

Jiang Fei knew that the gas masks they were wearing on their faces, the insulated ice packs in their pockets, the solar panels at home, and even almost all the furniture were all made by the young man in front of him.

He is a flower of hope growing on the desolate star. Due to lack of nutrition, he is somewhat stunted.

But there is a boulder that shields him from wind, rain and hardship, so that he always maintains a pure white color.

Jiang Fei suddenly felt envious.

Not envious of Yan Chen, but envious of Yan Shuo——

Everyone on Desolate Star has a flower they want to protect.

But often, their flowers will eventually be hungry, profited, and despaired... dyed into other colors by the desolation all day long, and finally wither and wither.

It's really great that Brother Shuo can protect his younger brother so well!

Jiang Fei was moved and cried in his heart.

On the surface, he is adhering to the idea that a man does not cry easily, just looks like "I have sand in my eyes", looks up at the sky, blinks wildly like eyelids twitching, and then naturally raises his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes .

Jiang Fei thought, no one must have noticed that he was crying.

The next moment, Jeffrey, who was standing beside him, asked strangely, "Why are you crying?"

Jiang Fei: "..."

Yan Chen also looked at him strangely, not understanding what this man was thinking when he looked at him just now.

"You don't understand, Jeffrey." Jiang Fei put down his hand in embarrassment, and returned to his normal expression: "There is a word called "crying with joy", I mean tears of joy. "

"Huh?" Jeffrey, who had dark brown hair, blue pupils, and deep features, didn't know why.

The Federation is a unified country, a federation of all mankind.On a livable planet, children receive the same education, and the three views converge.

But in Desolate Star, there are still big differences in the living habits, ideas, behavioral styles, and cultures of different races—they are passed down from the conservative previous generation, or the previous generation.

Jeffrey is a typical example.

However, he is used to this kind of communication with his companions, which is inappropriate.

He only asks the most straightforward questions: "So what are you happy about?"

Jiang Fei: "I just think of happy things... I mean, Jeffrey, aren't you happy?"

Jiang Fei turned his eyes, and his eyes fell on Yan Chen: "You said last time that if you can see Brother Shuo's younger brother, you should kiss him on the cheek face to face, and thank him for everything he has done for you."

Yan Chen was stunned, subconsciously looking at Jeffrey.

The latter is tall and strong, wearing an old suit jacket that doesn't fit well, leather shoes are torn, and the hair on the chin and the side of the face is much thicker than ordinary people, giving people the feeling that the orangutan is trying to pretend to be a gentleman.

No... Yan Chen hid behind Yan Shuo, and he patted his shoulder to comfort him.

"It's okay, Jeffrey is just talking, don't you think so, Jeffrey?"

There was a smile in Yan Shuo's tone.

What Yan Chen couldn't see was that he also had a smile on his face, but his eyes were spitting fire, staring at Jeffrey and beckoning him to explain quickly, don't scare his little brother.

"Yes, yes." Jeffrey was glad that he understood Yan Shuo's hint: "For us... well, I just want to express my gratitude to you. This is a kind of etiquette between relatives and acquaintances. I want to say What's more, well, you are brother Shuo's younger brother, so you are also my younger brother."

After speaking, Jeffrey heaved a sigh of relief.

Thank you Jiang Fei... This guy often nagged in their ears, saying things like "You are Brother Shuo's younger brother, and I am also Brother Shuo's younger brother, so we are brothers".

Although, Jiang Fei also dug this hole for him... Jeffrey laughed inwardly.

Yan Chen accepted this explanation, stood up from behind Yan Shuo, frowned and said with a smile, "You are too polite, I have never helped you..."

"How could it be?" Jeffrey's retort blurted out: "You have helped us too much!"

His emotions seemed to be extraordinarily excited... Yan Chen was stunned, and Jeffrey continued to say:

"If it weren't for the solar panels you made, I'd still be burning food with wood. Do you know how painful it is? Whenever summer comes, I always wish that every day would be thunderstorms, preferably raining all the time, Or, come a flood and simply turn our C-34 into a water planet..."

Jeffrey excitedly praised Yanchen's "inventions", which included gas masks, repaired and modified furniture, and resistance shoes to help them resist the strong wind.

He called Yan Chen his "re-created parents" and praised with exaggerated expression and dancing:

"You're the smartest kid I've ever met!"

Yan Chen's face, which was hidden behind the mask, was slowly burning red.

"Thank you, thank you!" He lowered the brim of his hat to cover his ears that were so hot that they seemed to be smoking: "Well, you are my brother's friends, so you are also my friends."

"In the future...if you need anything else, you can also find my brother and ask him to tell me."

"Great! You are such a kind angel, just as I thought."

Jeffrey smiled and responded enthusiastically.

Stop boasting...

Yan Chen dazedly grabbed his brother's shoulder, and said with the last ounce of reason: "Brother, I just saw..."

Before he finished speaking, a 23-year-old man with a cropped cut trotted over not far away: "Brother Shuo, Brother Shuo! Shao Ning wants to discuss something with you."

Yan Chen keenly noticed that upon hearing the name "Shao Ning", the expressions of Jiang Fei and the three of them became serious in an instant.

Yan Shuo did the same: "Did he say something?"

"Uh...no." The inch-cut man glanced curiously at the thin young man standing beside him, distracted for a moment:

"But Brother Shuo, I think he called those from the West District over, so it must be something serious."

"West District..." Yan Shuo pondered for a while, then bent slightly and patted Yan Chen's shoulder and said to him:

"Little brother, what materials do you want, let Jiang Fei and the others help you find them, I'll go over there to see what's going on, and come back later, okay?"

Who is this... The inch-cropped man couldn't help but look at the thin boy again, why did Brother Shuo treat him so politely...Little brother?Brother Shuo's younger brother who stays at home?

After a moment of scrutiny by the cropped man, Yan Chen obediently nodded and said "OK".

Yan Shuo left a sentence for Jiang Fei and the others, "Take care of my brother", and then walked away behind the inch-cut man.

After Yan Shuo left, Yan Chen was not in a hurry to find materials for making optical brains.

He watched Yan Shuo's back disappear, then turned his head thoughtfully, and asked Jiang Fei, "Who is Shao Ning?"

Jiang Fei and Zheng Sen looked at each other, wondering if they should tell him.

After all, Yanchen would ask this question, which means that Yanshuo probably never told him about the situation of the main dumps of C-34.

The two were still hesitating, but Jeffrey took the lead in backstabbing them: "In your brother's words, he is the king of all our C-34 dumps."

"I heard that his father used to be a famous star thief. He hijacked the spaceship of the expeditionary force when the federation was not yet unified... Oh, he took that spaceship to C-34 as a bond with his wife. The wedding room, this is really romantic... I have seen that gentleman from afar, and it is said that his physique is S-level."

Jeffrey's tone, with the tone of a drama actor reading lines, made Yan Chen completely unable to substitute it for Yan Shuo.

After speaking, Jeffrey finally added: "Shao Ning's physique is also S-level, higher than your brother."

Yan Chen nodded and wrote down the name.

As for the level of physique, if he can leave C-34, leave Desolate Star, and earn enough money, Yan Shuo can definitely improve his physique by purchasing potions of potential.

"Is there anything else you want to ask?" Jeffrey looked at Yan Chen with a warm smile.

His eyes seemed to say "I must know everything without saying anything", which reminded Yan Chen of the enthusiastic big black dog in the official office of C-34.

"Thank you, Jeffrey." Yan Chen shook his head, not quite used to Jeffrey's enthusiasm, and looked at Jiang Fei curiously: "I just saw some abandoned optical brains, but you don't seem to welcome them?"

The "you" he said not only included Yan Shuo and Jiang Fei, but also everyone else he saw in this dump.

Jiang Fei scratched his head: "Brother Shuo said that thing is useless, isn't it all discarded? The government doesn't accept it, and we can't exchange it for money if we pick it up, unless someone can repair it..."

Speaking of the word "xiu", Jiang Fei slightly widened his eyes, and looked at Yan Chen in disbelief: "Could it be, you can repair..."

"It depends on the degree of damage." Yan Chen was very strict.

But this was enough to shock Jiang Fei and the others—what else could be the reason why the C-34 officials did not recycle the discarded optical brains?Of course it's because they can't fix it!

In other words, even if it can be repaired, they think that its value after repair is not worth the cost of repair.

"Can it really be repaired? Optical brain? What materials are needed? Brother, just tell me, we can find thirty or forty of these things for you today..."

Jiang Fei was so excited that he was a little incoherent.

This is an optical brain!A livable planet deserves something!

Except for discarded products, they have only seen complete pictures in literacy books, and know its various uses.

The price of an optical computer... At that time, they will prepare one for each person, and then cooperate with Brother Shuo and the two brothers to sell optical computers in Desolate Star... This is something ordinary people will definitely not be able to learn. Brother Shuo and his brothers eat meat. A younger brother drinks soup, hehehe...

Jiang Fei wiped away the disappointing tears from the corner of his mouth.

Zheng Sen slapped him and warned in a low voice, "Be quiet!" But he also looked at Yan Chen expectantly.

Yan Chen hesitated for a moment, and very sorry to dispel their delusion: "If it is a discarded optical computer with relatively advanced technology, if the chip remains intact, it can be used with simple repairs."

"As for photonic chips with outdated technology, due to stability problems, there is a high probability that professional machinery will be used to repair them. In addition, the shell must be repaired with more expensive materials..."

The expressions of Jiang Fei and the others visibly changed to disappointment.

Advanced optical brains often appear on developed planets with strict garbage classification.

Most of the garbage dumped on Desolate Star came from relatively backward habitable planets.

Yan Chen's words are undoubtedly declaring that their imaginary money-making plan has not yet started, and they are officially bankrupt.

However, Jiang Fei and the other three had already experienced this similar situation of shattered expectations countless times, and they would not be affected emotionally for too long.

Soon, the three of them called two other people to help Yan Chen find the discarded optical brain.

Yan Chen walked to the rubbish heap he had seen before, and was about to step over the rubbish at the edge, and approached to pick up the optical brain.

Jiang Fei who was following him grabbed him: "Hey, what do you want, we can pick it up for you, why do you want to do it yourself?"

If Brother Shuo knew about this, what would Brother Shuo blame them for?

Not to mention Brother Shuo, with the help Yan Chen gave them, they couldn't let him use his little arms and legs to dig through the trash!

Jiang Fei looked around, walked towards the optical brain that Yan Chen had just taken a fancy to, and said as he walked:

"Don't look at how easy we are running around. This rubbish pile is not stable, and it's easy to sink into high places."

"And here, look." Jiang Fei pushed aside a tattered teddy bear with cotton exposed, revealing a layer of broken metal on the ground:

"If you don't pay attention, it doesn't matter if the soles of your feet are injured. If your shoes are pierced, walking on the sand will burn you to death."

Yan Chen lowered his head and glanced at Jiang Fei's shoes.

It was a pair of wooden board shoes, the soles of which were tied with a thick layer of cloth, and Jiang Fei's toes were exposed, covered with black mud.

"Here, here you are." Stepping on these shoes, Jiang Fei easily climbed up the garbage dump and picked up the optical brain.

He didn't climb very high, so he jumped back directly, wiped his brain with the hem of his coat, and handed it to Yan Chen.

"Thank you!" Yan Chen gave him a grateful smile, and solemnly put the light brain into the satchel.

"Is it heavy? Can I carry it for you?" Jiang Fei asked, looking at his bright smiling eyes, weak shoulders, and the bulging satchel.

Yan Chen shook his head: "No, thank you." He was afraid of affecting Jiang Fei's actions.

Jiang Fei scratched his head, pulled Zheng Sen and said a few words, the two left for a while, and got a small sack from nowhere.

"Put all the materials my brother wants here, and let Brother Shuo carry them back when the time comes!" The two threw the sack to the open space and shouted with arms raised.

Others responded one after another: "Okay!"

There were obviously only four or five people here, but they yelled out in an extremely high-spirited manner, which attracted many people nearby to look over.

Jiang Fei quickly dragged Yan Chen away.

About half an hour later, Yan Shuo came back.

He didn't tell Jiang Fei and the others what he went to talk to Shao Ning about.

Looking at the sack that was about to burst, and the younger brother standing beside him with a face full of joy, the corners of Yan Shuo's mouth twitched slightly, thanked them, and was about to take Yan Chen away.

After half an hour of searching, there are almost no valuable items here. Officials will arrive here soon to dispose of this batch of garbage.

Saying goodbye to the enthusiastic Jiang Fei, the reluctant Jeffrey and others, Yan Chen took out an insulated ice pack from his satchel.

Yan Shuo also took out an insulated ice pack, found a rock and put it on it, and punched it a few times.

Then, he opened the opening of the ice pack, and poured in a few pieces of crushed ice just like pouring water into his mouth.

In the sound of "cracking" and "crunching", Yan Shuo picked up the sack and looked at his younger brother who was staring at him stupidly: "You can't eat it."

Yan Chen: "..."

Yan Chen stared at him angrily: "So you tricked me into leaving an opening for it just to eat ice cubes!"

Do you know how much hair he lost for this "recyclable opening"?
