Do androids dream of the sun?

two hours ago

The room that Master refers to is not big, the walls are painted a soft off-white, surrounded by a plain sofa, a coffee table with a tea set, and a tall wall cabinet. There is a window next to it. Holding a pot of emerald green cactus, small and cute, it makes people feel peaceful when they look at it.

The only thing that is out of place is the reclining chair with the mechanical arm and the helmet in the center.

When Master came in, he saw Xiao Le standing quietly by the window sill, staring motionlessly at the pot of cactus not far away.

He smiled and patted the sofa: "Xiao Le, sit down."

Xiao Le was puzzled, and turned his gaze to the reclining chair.

"Don't worry, I'll talk about that later, come and help me boil water." Master took out a pot of tea from the cabinet, sat beside Xiao Le, put the tea set in front of himself, and took advantage of the gap of boiling water, I also chose a piece of light music from the bracelet as the BGM.

Master skillfully picked up the kettle, cleaned the tea set, and carefully took out the tea leaves from the pot. As the heat rose, the mellow and fragrant tea fragrance slowly overflowed and spread to every corner of the room.He put one of the cups in front of Xiao Le: "Come."'

Xiao Le picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then drank it up.

Master: "Oh, that's not how you drink tea..."

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Le drank the second cup for himself, and then stared at Master silently.

"When will we start" are written all over the face.

Master really couldn't see him spoiling good things like this, he waved his hand and said: "Forget it, let's talk about it later, if you are so anxious that you can't drink the taste, go sit."

Xiao Le stood up with a swipe, and sat on the reclining chair consciously.Master sighed, followed to the chair, and handed the helmet to Xiao Le.

Xiao Le held it in his hand and looked at it: "Is it useful?"

"Of course." Master said slowly, "I can guarantee that it can remind you of some memories."

Xiao Le caught a certain word and looked up at Master: "Some?"

not all?

"Frankly speaking, I'm not an expert in this field. In addition, the equipment here is not complete. I can't help you with a complete operation. I can only recover part of it as much as possible."

Xiao Le frowned, looking quite puzzled, he didn't know where to start.

Master is also very helpless. What can he do, he can only comfort him: "Don't worry, this part of memory is enough to solve all your problems."

Xiao Le was silent for a long time, and finally lay back on the chair quietly.

Anyway, he has been waiting for so long, it doesn't matter if he waits a little longer.

Xiao Le put on the helmet under Master's guidance, and immediately fell into darkness.He closed his eyes and waited for Master's next operation. The fragmentary images he recalled before suddenly appeared in his mind, dangling in front of his eyes like a revolving lantern.

"Mr. Master." Xiao Le said suddenly, "Am I..."

He didn't finish his sentence, Master understood and said with a cheerful smile: "You already have the answer, don't you?"

Xiao Le was obviously hit, and now he pursed his lips and stopped talking.

"Even if not, the truth will be revealed later." Master reached out and pressed the last button, "Okay, don't be nervous, let's get started."

The melodious light music did not stop, it floated into Xiao Le's ears along with Master's gentle voice, and the cold patch in the helmet moved slowly and stuck to Xiao Le's skin.

A white light seemed to flash before Xiao Le's eyes, followed by a long dream.

……

When Xiao Le opened his eyes, he was lying on a cold and hard bed.He stood up and looked around.

This is an extremely dilapidated tile-roofed house, so small that it can be seen at a glance when standing in the center.The furnishings in the house are also very simple, but every place is very tidy, and the items on the tables, chairs and cabinets are all arranged in an orderly manner, which is very unique to him.

He didn't get out of bed, but turned around behind him.Immediately afterwards, the sun symbols engraved on the entire wall suddenly came into view-each one was exactly the same as the one in the tunnel of Noah College.Countless little suns are neatly arranged on the wall, which is shocking at a glance.

Xiao Le reached out to pick up the dagger beside the bed, skillfully carved a brand new little sun at the end, and then put it back to its original place.

Next to the dagger lay an iron box no bigger than a palm.

He looked at the sun he had just carved, and his eyes softened unconsciously. He couldn't help stretching out his fingertips to trace its lines, one after another, without even noticing that his fingertips were rubbed red and swollen by the rough wall. Until a crisp voice sounded from behind: "Brother!"

He turned his head, and a little girl with twin ponytails walked in with a small basket.If Zhong Ziyang was present, he would definitely recognize her as the lost little girl he met in District D.

She smiled sweetly at Xiao Le and said, "Brother, I'll bring you medicine!"

Xiao Le sighed softly, jumped off the bed, walked to the table, and said in a deliberate manner: "Mengyang, can you..."

"No, grandpa said you must eat it, and you must eat it today." Shen Mengyang said firmly, put the small basket on the table, took out a tube of medicine and put it in front of Xiao Le, and then took out another tube of different medicine to hold in front of Xiao Le. palm, "Here, this tube is yours, and this tube is mine."

Xiao Le looked at the tube of black liquid in his hand, and frowned even more. Shen Mengyang next to him had already unscrewed the lid, biting the opening on the top like eating a popsicle, and said with a smile: "Let's compare who is faster!" ,OK?"

Xiao Le couldn't give up in front of an eight-year-old child, so he unscrewed the lid, raised his head and drank the potion. The strange taste quickly spread in his mouth, sour, bitter and spicy, and Xiao Le's face turned blue. After reaching a level, he quickly reached out and took out a pink and white candy from the box on the table and ate it, only to calm down a little.

Shen Mengyang also finished his own tube, and smacked his mouth a few times, then put the two empty tubes back into the small basket, and patted his chubby little hands: "The task has been successfully completed!"

Xiao Le sat at the side and kept drinking water, trying to dispel the taste of medicine in his mouth that couldn't be suppressed by sugar: "Is this the last tube?"

"Yeah!" Shen Mengyang nodded, "Grandpa said, my brother will go to the city tomorrow, and there will be a new medicine, which is more effective than this, so you don't need to take it anymore."

She thought about it, and said earnestly: "However, brother, you must take the new medicine on time. After taking it, you will get better. Look, I am much better now than before?"

Thinking of his "medicine", Xiao Le immediately softened his expression a lot, raised his hand and gently rubbed the top of Shen Mengyang's hair: "Well, I will definitely stay with him for a moment."

Shen Mengyang felt that something was wrong, but couldn't explain it, so he changed the subject: "Brother, you are going to the city tomorrow, are you going to find Brother Yangyang?"

Xiao Le: "Yes."

"Hmm..." Shen Mengyang blinked, "Then when will you come back?"

Xiao Le lowered his eyes and said after a while: "I don't know."

A trace of frustration flashed across Shen Mengyang's face, and Xiao Le said again: "But, I will definitely come back."

"Yeah!" Shen Mengyang immediately nodded, "Then I finally have a chance to meet Brother Yangyang."

Xiao Le: "You want to see him that much?"

"I'm curious!" Shen Mengyang smiled with brows and eyes crooked, "However, since my brother likes someone, it must be very good, very good."

She used three "very good" in a row, and a smile flashed on the corner of Xiao Le's lips: "He is really very good."

As soon as he finished speaking, a thin and stooped figure walked in from the door. He had gray hair and small eyes, but they were all naked.As soon as Shen Mengyang saw him, he jumped off the chair, quickly threw himself into his arms, and said, "Grandpa, my brother and I have finished taking the medicine!"

"Hey, my yang and yang are the most powerful!" Shen Zhang, Xiao Le's attending doctor, smiled and stretched out his hand to rub Shen Mengyang's head, and said loudly, "I knew it, I asked you to urge him to take medicine most useful!"

Although he knew it was intentional, he suddenly heard Xiao Le who was so straightforward: "..."

After a joyous grandparents exchanging blows, Shen Zhang, like magic, took out a handful of biscuits and candies, put them in Shen Mengyang's small basket, and asked her to find friends to play with.After she left, the room became quiet again.

"I told you not to eat so much sugar, you still have to eat it." Shen Zhang walked slowly to the table, pointing to the candy box on the table, "If it wasn't for the fact that I wouldn't be able to use my medicine tomorrow, I would still have to give it to you." You just have to improve."

Xiao Le can still clearly think of that smell now, he is really not flattered, he argued helplessly: "This is the last day."

Shen Zhang glared at him angrily: "Hmph, when you go there, there will be more sugar than here, how do you remember quitting?"

"There is him watching me." Xiao Le said, "Besides, he eats more than me."

Shen Zhang: "Are you ashamed to be like him? He can eat as much as he wants!"

Xiao Le couldn't refute, so he had no choice but to shut up.

"Forget it, forget it, I'm too lazy to talk about you, the old man Master is still waiting behind." Shen Zhang waved his hand, "Do you have anything else to clean up?"

Xiao Le thought for a while, turned around and returned to the bed, put the iron box next to the pillow into his pocket: "It's gone."

Shen Zhang went out: "Let's go, Louis."

Xiao Le responded softly: "En."

Outside the house is a completely different scene from Noah City. There is no towering steel forest, no haze covering the sky, the sun is rising, the sun is warm, the blue sky is as clear as a mirror, and the white clouds are like cotton.

The door of the house where Xiao Le lived was facing a huge open space where many crops were planted.In the corner closest to him, there are several clumps of green and lush plants, small flower buds can be vaguely seen among the branches and leaves, and some bright red leaks out of the blue.

It's a rose.

When Xiao Le passed by, he involuntarily slowed down and turned to look at them.

Shen Zhang at the front said angrily: "Don't worry, Yangyang and I are better at taking care of flowers than you."

Xiao Le slightly bent his mouth: "Thank you."

The two turned a corner and walked into the room in the middle of the backyard, which was obviously twice as big as Xiao Le's room.Master, who was sitting at the table, turned his head when he heard the sound, and said kindly: "You are here, Louis."

Xiao Le nodded towards him: "Mr. Master."

Shen Zhang waited for Xiao Le to come in, and locked the door tightly.He led the two into the bedroom, motioned Xiao Le to push away a tall closet on the left, and a dark secret passage appeared in front of the three of them.

Master happily said: "Every time I see it, I will have the illusion of being in a spy movie."

When he suddenly said that, Xiao Le really felt a bit like it.

"You can shut up." Shen Zhang was unhappy, rolled his eyes, stretched out his hand and pressed the switch at the door, and the secret passage was brightly lit, bright and spacious, without any atmosphere.

Master shook his head helplessly, and took the lead to walk in.Xiao Le walked at the end, and after entering the secret passage, he moved the tall cabinet back and firmly blocked the entrance.

The end of the secret passage is a huge basement, which is not much different from the decoration of the research institute.There is a piece of equipment like an operating table in the center. The difference is that it has a huge cover like a half-capsule on one side, and the next door is connected to a mechanical arm and various operating equipment. CT scanning machines are similar.

It originally belonged to Xiao Le, but after some accidents, it was moved to Shen Zhang's basement, waiting to play its role until today.

Master's main purpose of coming today is to learn and help, Xiao Le is the one who wants to lie down, knowing that he just needs to relax.Therefore, only Shen Zhang was busy, and they chatted next to each other.

There is always only one topic that Xiao Le pays attention to, and he straight to the point: "How is he doing recently?"

Master: "It's still the same. I heard from Ning Qi that the JZ[-] model he developed will be on the market soon, and now he is considered a big hit in the headquarters."

Xiao Le raised the corners of his mouth slightly, his smile was half helpless and half proud.Before he knew it, his yang yang had grown up and he was able to stand on his own.

Xiao Le turned his head sideways: "Then does he still meet with Lance?"

Master gave an affirmative answer, raised his hand to caress the operating table in front of him, and said in a worried tone: "Louis, you will inevitably meet him when you go to Area A, can you really guarantee that he won't recognize you? "

"No." Xiao Le said firmly.

"Instead of worrying about him being recognized, I hope he can do a few more Nelson test questions after he loses his memory." Shen Zhang walked slowly to the screen of the device, fingers flying, "When this guy did it for the first time, Only did two questions! Two questions! How can there be a bionic person in this world who can only do two questions?!"

Master looked at Xiao Le, his eyes became more and more worried, and he said slowly: "Louis, it seems that the situation is much more serious than I imagined."

Xiao Le was very confident: "Don't worry, it's impossible to have only two questions, at least ten questions."

Master: "..."

Does it make a difference? ?

"Looking at your refusal to take medicine, I really don't know where your confidence comes from." Shen Zhang had already made preparations, snorted coldly, and pointed to the operating table, "Okay, let's go up."

Xiao Le sat down on the cold operating table and smiled faintly at Master: "I will trouble you next time we meet."

Master smiled and said, "Okay, Louis."

Xiao Le: "Should you change your mind?"

Master is as good as he is: "Okay, Xiao Le."

Xiao Le lay down on the operating bed satisfied, and closed his eyes.Then the operating bed slowly moved in until his upper body was pushed into the "capsule", two small lights were lit inside, emitting a cold white light, and the mechanical arm moved slowly, attaching the patch to Xiao Le's body. on the head.

There seemed to be a flash of white light before his eyes, followed by severe pain.

Xiao Le suddenly opened his eyes, and the surrounding area was completely dark.He immediately raised his hand to grope, took off the helmet, breathed out his shortness of breath, and then slowly sat up.

Master was sitting on the sofa, with two steaming cups of black tea in his hands, and said with a friendly smile, "Long time no see, Louis."
