Absolute Zone Zero: I survive in Liufen Street

"Uncle, we're back~" Fu Fu pushed open the door of the repair shop and greeted Uncle Enzo happily.

"Huh? Why are you two back?" Uncle Enzo, who was thinking hard, looked up in surprise when he heard the voice. Seeing the food boxes in Fu Fu and Bai Yu's hands, his stomach immediately started to growl.

"You guys are so thoughtful, even thinking of bringing me lunch." Uncle Enzo patted his belly and smiled sheepishly. "Thank you so much for troubling you."

"Don't say that. We brought Bombbu along and delayed your lunch break." Fufu placed the lunch box on the empty space Bai Yu had cleared next to the workbench. "Come and eat, uncle! Otherwise, the ramen will get mushy if you leave it out for too long."

"I'm here! It's because Qiaopu's cooking is so good that you won't get tired of eating it every day." Uncle Enzo packed up his tools, washed his hands, and sat down. He joked, "I'll treat you to better food later. So you don't have to spend every day in ramen shops."

"Chef Qiaopu's ramen is not just any ramen," Fufu said, shaking her head. "It's ramen that increases your attack power!"

"Huh? What does it mean to increase attack power?" Uncle Enzo took a bite of ramen and didn't taste anything different from usual.

"Fu Fu was just joking, don't take it seriously." Bai Yu walked to the workbench and looked at the half-modified Bomb curiously.

The Bomb, with its shell removed, showed the metal frame and module circuit board inside, all of which exuded the neat and orderly beauty of mechanical creations in Bai Yu's eyes.

"Oh, right.

Although this child lacks the adaptation module, I have removed all the modules that were forcibly loaded, and now I can try to wake him up again. Why don't you give it a try?"

Uncle Enzo had replaced all the old parts that could be disassembled while Baiyu and the others were out buying lunch. Now that Baiyu and Fufu had returned, it was a good opportunity for the two children to see with their own eyes that the Bomb, which he had brought back, had been restarted, which gave him some peace of mind.

"Can we restart now?" Fu Fu asked in surprise, "Will it really not increase the burden on little Bomb's chip?"

"Hahaha, don't think the military's creations are so fragile." Uncle Enzo laughed after hearing Fu Fu's worried words and said, "Although the chip of this little guy is old and damaged, its quality is still very strong.

But now it is a bit difficult to expect it to continue to carry out some delicate work.

But simple daily operations are not a problem for this child.

Because of the damage to the memory chip and the incompatibility of the core link module, it may become very forgetful. There are also problems with the information collection module, and its response to the outside world will become slow.

Just like an elderly person.”

Uncle Enzo sighed again after he finished speaking. "Let's not talk about this anymore. I see you two care so much about this child. Do you really want to keep it?"

"Yes, we've already discussed it." Bai Yu came back to his senses and nodded, saying affirmatively: "Once we find a permanent place to live, we plan to take this little guy home. Don't worry, Fu Fu and I will take good care of this child."

"Oh right, you guys don't have Bombu yet...

But like I said just now, if you intend to continue doing hollow business, this little guy's current situation may not be of much help until you find the appropriate parts and modules.

Do you mind?" Uncle Enzo said with some worry, thinking of the two children's careers.

"Don't worry about that. We didn't need the help of Bomb with the carrot before, and now we naturally won't let this child follow us on our explorations." Bai Yu said seriously, "And we also have some ideas about the spare parts.

Uncle, you also know that our profession is about collecting information and expanding personal connections. There is no one more suitable than a capable and reputable "rope maker".

We've now, sort of... sort of, gained some reputation. We'll be paying special attention to gathering information on this from now on.

It may take more time and effort, but we have made our decision and we will not give up on little Bombbu no matter what."

"...Good boy." Uncle Enzo was naturally moved by Bai Yu's earnest attitude. In an environment where many people regard Bangbu as a tool, there are not many people like Bai Yu who are willing to put in the effort to help these innocent little guys.

He had thought he would have one more member in his shop.

Now that the child has a better place to go, Uncle Enzo is naturally very happy.

"Then I'll have to trouble you to take care of this child from now on. I'll also help keep an eye on little Bomb. Let's work together to get this child back to the best possible condition." Uncle Enzo now felt full of energy. He finished his ramen in a few bites. He excitedly walked to the workbench, connected Bomb's circuits, and asked with a smile, "Then let's wake this child up now. How do you think?"

"Great!" Fu Fu also came to the front of the workbench and watched Uncle Enzo's operation with anticipation.

Enzo then turned on the power, and data bars began to scroll across Bomb's head-mounted display. A moment later, as the progress reached 100%, the data on the screen changed to two horizontal bars representing closed eyes.

The two horizontal bars soon began to fluctuate, switching back and forth between horizontal and parallel bars, representing Bomb's efforts to open his eyes. Finally, the parallel bars became hollow circles, and Bomb blinked, quietly gazing at the humans surrounding him.

"Success!" Fu Fu jumped up happily and applauded and cheered.

"...This kid's reaction is a little slow. But the fact that it can be restarted means that the core is fine." Uncle Enzo touched his chin and was relieved.

"Hello!" Bai Yu bent down and approached Bomb's display panel. He spoke slowly and greeted the child softly.

"..." The images of three humans appeared tremblingly in Bomb's visual module.

It remained silent. It had long been accustomed to the situation where the humans around it suddenly became strangers.

Many times, it can't even recognize who the human next to it is.

The damaged memory chip causes its memory information to always have large gaps, and recent information will be inexplicably lost.

But none of this mattered. It would obey orders and help those in need. Although... it had long forgotten who had given these "orders"...

"Little Bombu... Little Bombu?" Fufu also bent down and looked closely at the quiet Bombu. A golden light flickered in her eyes. "No, it's ignoring us."

Fufu raised her hand and touched Bomb's head. Data flowed silently through her fingers into Bomb's damaged core to repair it. "Wake up, wake up. It's time to get up~"

"Hmm (comrade)..." Bomb's circular eyes stared at Fufu. As an intelligent machine, although its chaotic thinking logic could not understand Fufu's power, it sensed a kindred spirit.

"There's a reaction!" Fu Fu proudly put her hands on her hips. It turned out that she was the most powerful!

"Very good, very good!

I didn't expect it to respond so quickly after just restarting. It seems the child's condition is much better than expected." Uncle Enzo said happily.

"Hello! I'm Fu Fu. What's your name?" Fu Fu came close to Bangbu again and introduced herself.

"Hmm, (name)..." Bomb blinked, unable to answer. No one in his memory had ever asked him that question. His previous name... there was no record of it anymore.

"...It seems that I can't remember it." Bai Yu sighed, looking at the little Bombu who was reacting dully on the workbench, feeling a little sad.

"Why don't you come up with a name for it?" Uncle Enzo stroked Bai Yu's head and suggested, "Since you've decided to take it in, it will be the new member of your family.

The lost memories of the past cannot be recovered, but you can start over and create more beautiful memories. Come on, children."

"Sure!" Fu Fu looked down at the little Bomb and asked for its opinion. "Do you want a new name? Or do you want to choose one yourself?"

"Hmm (Name)..." Bomb's slow-moving logic chip, unable to comprehend Fufu's meaning, simply repeated the words meaninglessly. However, the feeling it felt towards the humans and their companions before it gave the cold machine a false sense of warmth.

It seemed as if something wonderful was about to happen. It blinked its eyes quietly, waiting silently.

"It seems that it can't choose a name by itself. Xiaobai, what name do you think we should give it?" Fu Fu held her chin and thought hard.

"...Warrior." Bai Yu raised his hand and touched the silent Bomb. "Let's call it Warrior from now on."

"Warrior?" Uncle Enzo thought about the name and nodded in admiration, "For a child from the military, this name is quite suitable."

"It's not a warrior, it means a warrior." Bai Yu looked back at Uncle Enzo and explained seriously, "A warrior who has gone through many hardships but still refused to succumb to reality. Little Bombu is very brave and strong. I hope that in the future I can be like him and face the difficulties of reality with courage."

“It used to be a warrior protecting the city, but now it’s its own hero.

Warren, I'm Baiyu, and this is Fufu.

From now on we will be your companions and family.

I hope to face future challenges with you bravely and strongly. Welcome to join us." This is the first memory of Bombvorion to its new owners.

Now that its thinking logic is damaged, it is unable to understand the meaning of this passage.

Fortunately, the memory chip has not lost this information, and it still has a promising future.
