interstellar second director

The next day, Dan Qingchi, who had been carried away by Ella as a waist pendant, followed Ella to the garbage dump again. This was the first time he looked at this huge garbage dump seriously.

It looks like a sea of ​​mechanical waste, endless at a glance.

What is discarded here is metal and other waste products of various materials, so there is no foul smell.

"System, where can I find the optical brain?" Dan Qingchi struggled to climb up the highest 'mountain', condescendingly looking at the scraps, "What does the optical brain look like?"

"Host, this is the era of memory alloys, and optical brains can be of any shape. Wait, host back!" The system shouted loudly.

Danqingchi moved his steps and moved back.

"Yes, it's right here, under your feet, dig!" the system excitedly said.

Danqingchi squatted down, and pulled away the waste products under his feet bit by bit, with careful movements.

In the distance, Ella silently removed a complete metal plate and tidied it up. She turned her head and glanced at Danqingchi, and saw that he was squatting on the garbage dump by himself, having fun, not running around and making noise, so he ignored it and continued to do it own business.

"Host, yes, this is it!" The system said, "After testing, the degree of damage has reached 11%. Host, it can be used after repairing it."

Dan Qingchi took out the fist-sized, round and white metal ball, which is so light that it can be easily held by one hand. There is an obvious depression on the top of the ball, which seems to be damaged by an external force.

"Same as you, host, there is a hole in the head." The system said.

Danqingchi: "Shut up!" It's just that his original body was injured and there was a hole in his head, and it has been repaired, right?

"How to fix it?" Dan Qingchi asked.

"It's simple, you can use it by replacing the damaged parts." The system said, "This is the waste product concentration area, just find another damaged optical brain, remove the parts and replace it. It's just that the dent on the outside cannot be repaired. This shell is One piece, but don't worry, the damage of the shape will not affect the use."

"That's fine." Dan Qingchi said.

It’s just that smart machines like optical brains are being updated too quickly. Dan Qingchi wandered around the garbage dump for a long time and found many discarded optical brains with varying degrees of damage. Only then did he find the same model and can be disassembled to complete parts. optical brain.After he found it, it was almost time to go back.

Aila came to Danqingchi with her spoils, saw that he was holding two optical brains in his hand, and frowned slightly: "This thing is broken and can't be used."

"Xiu." Dan Qingchi answered him with one word.

Aila looked at Danqingchi quietly, and then asked, "What do you plan to use for repair?"

Danqingchi was taken aback.

"Forget it, it's good to think of picking it up here." Ella said, "Come with me."

Danqingchi hesitated for a moment, then followed.

Aila did not take Dan Qingchi back to the orphanage, but walked in the opposite direction all the way.

Since coming to this planet, Danqingchi has seen all the barren landscapes. He has carefully observed the land here. It is sandy and gravel land. In such a place, only some low bushes can grow, and most types of food are The species does not live.After coming here, there are few people, and there are no buildings around the orphanage, so Danqingchi always thinks that there will not be too many people living here.

But what he saw next surprised Dan Qingchi.

The place Ella took him to was a market, and there were a lot of people, and it looked like a bustling market, although both the houses and the sheds looked dilapidated, much like the rural markets in the past.

"You are not allowed to talk after you get here, and you don't want to answer anyone, you know." Aila turned her head and said to Dan Qingchi, and sighed slightly after seeing the dazed expression on the other side's face, wondering whether it was a mistake for me to bring him here today.

Aila reached out and grabbed Danqingchi's wrist, leading him along.

Not long after entering the market, Dan Qingchi understood why Aila asked him to ignore the people here and not allow him to speak.Because the people here are very unfriendly looking at themselves.Especially some big and three rough men, who made no secret of their interest in Danqingchi and their desires in certain aspects.Even if they didn't do anything, just the eyes that were almost glued to their bodies made Dan Qingchi feel very uncomfortable.

The two walked around the noisy market a few times, and then stopped in front of a very remote hut. Ella threw the things on her shoulders to the ground and knocked on the door.

"It's out of stock today, next time..." The man who opened the door was a bearded man with some scales on his face and body. He paused when he saw that it was Ella, and then his eyes slowly moved to Ella's side. , Dan Qingchi's body.

"I collect alloys, not traffickers," the man said.

"I'm not here to sell people," Ella said. "You can fix things."

"I don't dare to buy it if you sell it, and I can't bear the crime if I get caught casually if I get caught." The man scratched his head, "You want to repair something? As long as it's a machine, I can do it. Come in first."

Ella who entered the door didn't talk nonsense, she put the thing in Dan Qingchi's hand on the table, and asked, "Can it be repaired?"

The man squinted his eyes, picked up the two optical brains, checked them carefully, and nodded: "You are lucky. These days, many optical brains are taken out and thrown away, but this one was picked up from the garbage dump and repaired." It’s hard to get an optical brain that can still be used at once. It can, and it’s not difficult, it’s just a matter of changing parts.”

The man thought for a while and asked, "I want both of these, how much?"

"Not for sale," Ella said. "It's Dan's."

"Dan?" The man squinted his eyes and glanced at Dan Qingchi, "That pure-blooded earthling? Isn't he a fool? Can he play with the brain?"

"He just broke his head and was unresponsive," Ella said.

"Okay, after all, this thing is not uncommon on this planet, and anyone with a little money can get it." The man said, "It's not difficult to repair, and I don't want to pay for the repair, so I will help you." Said Then the man took out the tools and dismantled the optical brain in a few strokes. Dan Qingchi watched the man skillfully replace the parts and repair them.Then click on the light brain, the metal ball shook its chubby body and floated up.

"It's fixed." The man threw the optical brain into Danqingchi's hand and said.

Dan Qingchi hurriedly took it, and it took only 2 minutes before and after, so fast that he didn't feel it, but he still said quickly: "Thank you."

The man was taken aback, pointed at Dan Qingchi and asked Ella: "Fool?"

"I don't know." Ella said, "If you have time to take care of this, why don't you calculate how much my things can be converted this time."

"Sure, I see." The man stood up and said, "You've come here quite often recently, are you saving money?"

Ella hummed, and then asked, "How much is the ticket price for this spaceship?"

"Repay the price, [-] star coins." The man said, "Unless you go to the capital planet, the price is everywhere. You want to leave? You have to be an adult to take the spaceship by yourself."

"I'll be an adult in a year," Ella said. "How much?"

"37 star coins." The man said.

After receiving the star coins from the man, Ella left with Dan Qingchi, silent all the way, muttering something in her mouth, as if she was counting the star coins in her current hand.

Danqingchi followed quietly, and finally couldn't help but open his mouth, he didn't even care about whether he was a fool if he suddenly collapsed, and asked, "You want to go?"

"En." Ella responded, "I can't see the future here."

"Star coins?"

"It's enough." Ella said, "I'm saving money for the future now." After saying this, Ella paused, lowered her head and said to Dan Qingchi: "I don't know how stupid you are, or if your brain has gradually started Got it. You have three years to come of age, and I'm leaving in a year. For the two years after I'm gone, you need a guardian. Weak races need guardians to follow, especially like you. You If you can understand, plan for yourself earlier. The star protection law won't protect you for long, especially in this place."

The location of the planet is very remote, and it is a garbage planet. Even if there is an orphanage to rely on, you will have to leave the orphanage when you become an adult. How can you survive if you are so weak and have no skills?And there are occasional interstellar pirates passing by here, and they don't care about any interstellar protection laws, especially the black-haired, black-eyed and beautiful earthlings are very popular in some ways.Taking action against the orphanage protected by the Star Alliance is equivalent to declaring war, but a person who leaves the orphanage to make a living by himself does not have so many scruples.There are no interstellar pirates, and the original inhabitants here are not very friendly.

That's all that Aila said, but the system thoughtfully analyzed the rest for Danqingchi.

Very well, before the lofty goal of becoming a first-class interstellar director, Dan Qingchi had a small goal.

Save your money, and when you're an adult, get out of here.

Otherwise, his chastity would be in jeopardy.
