Chapter 15 Become a Migrant Worker
There was only one week left before school started. Zhou Yi was so wasteful that he temporarily gave up on this natural energy capsule and chose to go out early and come back late every day to soak in the library.
I read during the day, and when I returned to my dormitory at night, I started thinking over and over in my mind what I had learned during the day.
Although she has never seen a real mecha, she has seen a lot of pictures, and even found a few videos of mecha battles recorded and uploaded by people on Star Brain.
Unlike the pictures in the book, the mecha in the video seemed to be harder, and every movement was full of vitality. Just looking at it gave Zhou Yi a feeling of excitement.
She couldn't wait to touch a real mecha.
The day when school starts is getting closer, and more and more people come to school.
After all, there are a total of three grades coming to school, and the number of people is not large, almost including children of appropriate age from many nearby D-level star blocks.
The school gradually became lively. The students who came early naturally did not go to the library like Zhou Yi. They all gathered in the school in groups to play card games and socialize.
The dormitory next to Zhouyi gradually began to move in, and it was no longer quiet as before, but began to become a little noisy.
Several lively and cheerful people knocked on the door and introduced themselves, but Zhou Yi, who was only there at night, was still digesting knowledge in his mind and had no energy or mood to make friends. He just nodded in reply and the door closed.
She didn't even remember what the person's name was or what they looked like.
We are all children of sixteen, seventy or eight years old, and the whole campus is filled with the smell of hormones.
Zhou Yi looked at the pairs of men and women and couldn't figure it out.
They are all people who came out of D-level star blocks. Nowadays, many D-level star blocks are facing the problem of disintegration and reorganization, and some are being attacked by star beasts and are even about to be occupied.
There are internal and external troubles, and we are about to lose our homes and be displaced. How come everyone seems not worried at all?
Zhou Yi scratched her short hair from her ears. These questions were much more difficult for her than those mecha knowledge.
Tomorrow is the official registration day for the start of school. Zhou Yi had already read through all the contents of the mecha masters on those bookshelves yesterday, and he was just short of touching the real thing.
Today she came to the library to review and consolidate the more advanced knowledge.
Because she has never really dismantled a mecha, it is still a bit difficult for her to understand the more advanced mecha master knowledge. There is very little online text for this convenient video, so she can only read the limited books several times.
Already.
Read the book a hundred times and its meaning will become apparent. You can still believe the old saying.
It was already dark as usual when Zhou Yi came out.
"Aunt Lan, you haven't left yet."
At the door, Qi Lan was still slumped on a chair and resting as usual.
After seeing each other day and night for a week, Zhou Yi and Qi Lan got to know each other quite well.
Zhou Yi had long discovered that no matter how early she came or how late she left, Qi Lan was always here, and the working hours were a bit too long.
"I am idle, and I am not tired just sitting here. But you, aren't you tired from reading for so long every day?"
Qi Lan fell more and more in love with this little girl who came to the library to report every day.
"You are too thin, don't let your body suffer anymore."
"It's okay, I'm fine."
Zhou Yi thanked him politely and prepared to leave.
"By the way, school starts tomorrow. Do you want to come to the library to do a work-study program after school starts?"
Qi Lan stopped Zhou Yi.
"Work-study program?"
"Yes, I'm too old to clean such a big library. I see that you love coming here. The bookshelf is quite orderly. Do you want to help me?"
"I……"
I have read all the books on mecha masters. The books on individual mecha soldiers are not that important for the study of individual mecha soldiers. Zhou Yi is not in a hurry to read them.
She has been neglecting her cultivation recently, her star pattern has not changed, it is still at three star points, and her star power has not increased at all.
The part-time job in the library was not very rewarding for her. It was too much of a waste of time, so she subconsciously refused.
"Don't refuse in a hurry. Auntie asked you, when school starts, will you choose an individual soldier or a mecha division?"
As if she saw Zhou Yi's intention to refuse, Qi Lan said in front of her.
"Mecha individual soldier."
Zhou Yi answered truthfully, there was nothing to hide in this point.
"Wharton's traditional rules are that individual mecha soldiers can only use the mecha during class in the first year. In the second year, they can have a mecha that is temporarily their own. They must return it to the school at the end of the third year.
"
"Mechas were issued only in the second year?"
Zhou Yi really didn't know about this. She thought that all military academies gave the same award upon admission.
She lowered her eyes, she couldn't wait for the next year.
In fact, Wharton used to give it to Wharton when he entered school, but now the school's performance is not good. Even if he doesn't buy new mechas, the maintenance cost of those old mechas is too high, so...
"After reading the book for so long, you haven't touched a real mecha yet."
"Yeah." Zhou Yi's voice was a little low, and she had no chance at all.
"You haven't been to the third floor of the library, right? There is a warehouse above. It's quite big. There are some junk piled inside. They are all scrapped mechas that have been in disrepair for a long time, and some are barely usable..."
"I will come to work tomorrow, thank you Aunt Lan!!"
Before Qi Lan finished speaking, Zhou Yi immediately shouted out.
What kind of work-study program? This part-time job is like pie in the sky! Where else can I encounter such a good thing!
It was simply God helping her.
"I promised you in advance that the salary for helping in the library is very low."
"no problem!"
Not to mention low wages, even if you borrow high-interest loans, Zhou Yi will come!
"And I have to come at least four days a week, four hours a day."
"no problem!"
What four days and four hours, she is willing to do it even eight days and twenty-five hours a week!
"besides……"
"No problem! Aunt Lan, I'll report in after school tomorrow. Just wait for me."
Before Qi Lan could finish her words, Zhou Yi ran away as if he was afraid that she would regret it.
"This kid."
Qi Lan couldn't help but curl up her lips when she saw Zhou Yi running so fast.
After Zhou Yi completely disappeared from Qi Lan's sight, Qi Lan still slumped on the chair, opened his star brain dialog box, and dialed a number.
"Lao Yi, there is a child in our school this year that I think is quite interesting. His name is..."
The dark sky, artificial light sources hung high, and laughter everywhere on Wharton campus were in sharp contrast to the quiet world outside.
Most of the residents of the d72 star block had been working in the mines for a day, and their whole bodies were already sore and fell into sleep.
What awaited them the next day was still repeated fatigue and hard work.
