Chapter 5 Unexplainable
At dusk, the deserted streets were hustle and bustle. Someone fell down. It seemed that the situation was very bad. Many people walked towards the person who fell down.
"Let's go back!" Xia Zuo said quickly, turned around and ran towards Lei, and pulled off his robe.
"Lei, what's wrong with you?" Xia Zuo was the first to run to Lei's side, and asked loudly as if he was familiar, while putting the robe in his hand on Lei's body.
Lei is an artificial human, with a metal structure on his body. Some bionic skins were damaged when they just left the magic mirror. If others walked in, they would immediately see that he was not a human, and there would definitely be trouble at that time.
Fortunately, Xia Zuo ran away in time and covered Lei with his robe before the others walked to Lei.
"Is he okay?" asked the lady in a white long dress just now coming over. The gentleman next to her pulled her, as if she didn't want her to meddle in other people's business.
"He is sick!" Xia Zuo looked up and replied, looking at the more people gathered around him, he picked up Lei Heng, who was much taller than him, looked at both sides of the street, and ran towards the north intersection.
It was vaguely, Xia Zuo could still hear the exclamation "That kid is so strong."
...
In the quiet alley, Xia Zuo placed Lei in the corner of the wall, pulled down his robe, and put it on himself again and asked.
"Lei, what's wrong with you?" Xia Zuo squatted down and asked.
Lei looked in a bad situation, his eyes were dull and unconscious, and he could vaguely smell a burnt smell on him, as if something was burning out.
"It's...Damn...The energy converter is broken...I'm pregnant..." Lei's voice intermittently and became emotionally unconscious.
"Can I save you?" Xia Zuo asked.
"…Loki, Loki." Lei repeated the contact twice.
"What is Loki?" Xia Zuo fully understood what Lei was saying and hurriedly asked.
Lei opened his mouth and stared at Xia Zuo with his eyes, but he could no longer speak.
Tatta, with a burst of rapid footsteps, Vivian finally trotted into the alley and came to Xia Zuo to squat down: "What's wrong with him?"
"What is Loki?" Xia Zuo asked, turning his head.
"Loki, what Loki?" Vivian was completely confused.
"He just said something was broken, and what did Loki say..." Xia Zuo looked at Lei again, Lei's eyes were open, as if he was dead, motionless, but there was still this faint light in his eyes.
"He's dead?" Vivian asked, covering his mouth.
"Will artificial humans die?" Xia Zuo asked back.
"No... won't?" Vivian was not sure.
"It shouldn't be." Xia Zuo stood up and looked back. Although he didn't know much about artificial humans, he believed that artificial humans should not die. How could a machine die?
"What should we do?" Vivian stood up and hugged Xia Zuo's arm.
Xia Zuo looked hesitant. If he brought Lei back, it would definitely be a problem. If he stayed here, if someone discovered that there was an artificial human here, it would definitely cause a storm. It would also be a trouble at that time. The best way is to take Lei to a deserted place to destroy the corpse. However, Xia Zuo cannot do such a thing. Lei is a wise life, and Xia Zuo is not that cruel.
"Take him back and find a way to wake him up." Xia Zuo said gritting his teeth.
Before dark, in the dark forest.
The sound of whispering came one after another. Xia Zuo carried the thunder and headed towards his wooden house. He entered the forest from the north of the British city. The southernmost end of the forest was in the academy. Xia Zuo did not dare to hire a carriage, nor did he enter the academy through the gate, for fear of causing trouble. Although he was a little farther away from the forest and tired, at least he would not find that he had carried a man and returned.
When Xia Zuo carried Lei back to the wooden house, Vivian had been waiting for a long time. The candlelight drove away the dimness in the wooden house. Xia Zuo put Lei on the bed.
"What should I do?" Vivian said with a sad face, pulling the big hat on her head.
Xia Zuo shrugged and shook his head. He didn't know what to do. Artificial humans are not humans, and human treatment methods cannot work for him. The Steam Alliance has implemented a technological blockade, and there is no decent mechanical repairman in British City.
At present, there is no way.
"You go back first, don't tell anyone about this." Xia Zuo turned his head and looked at Vivian and said.
"Then... can you be alone?" Vivian looked a little worried.
"It's okay, go!" Xia Zuo smiled comfortingly at Vivian.
Vivian left, full of thoughts, and I have to say that this day was a very magical day.
After Vivian left, Xia Zuo walked back and forth in the room, staring at Lei, the more he thought about it, the more annoyed he was. Now he wanted to bury the Lei, and he was out of sight. It was probably impossible for an artificial human to die if he buried it. However, the faint light that had been lit in Lei's eyes made Xia Zuo unable to start.
"Damn it!" Xia Zuo whined his head with a slight pain.
Late at night, Xia Zuo had been pounding and beating Lei, and had been studying for a few hours. He finally made up his mind. He found a solution to the headache at this time. He carried Lei out of bed, stuffed it under the bed, took off his clothes, covered him with a quilt, and turned off the lamp to sleep.
...
In the early morning, the sun rose, and the hustle and bustle of England, which had been quiet all night, began again.
Xia Zuo woke up early, washed up, then left the wooden house in neatly dressed and headed to the college library.
As the world's first-class advanced institution, the Royal British Library has never lacked progressive students. When Xia Zuo came to the library, there were already many people sitting in the library, and some of them were students of the Cultural Academy that Xia Zuo was very familiar with.
"Ortega?" Xia Zuo, who was walking towards the technology area, suddenly stopped and looked at the man in the seat in the corner and shouted in a low voice.
Since the college was on vacation, Shazzo hasn't seen Ortega for a long time. Ortega is talented and is well-known in the fighting academy. However, this guy doesn't know what's wrong. After getting involved in the courses of the Cultural Academy, he decided to become a sailing commander. He expects to spend more time in the Cultural Academy than in the fighting academy.
When Ortega heard someone calling him, he put down the book in his hand, squinted his eyes, smiled, waved his hand to Xia Zuo and signaled Xia Zuo to come over.
Xia Zuo looked at the northernmost science and technology area and walked towards Ortega.
"Why is it so early?" Xia Zuo sat down and asked in a low voice, because it was a library, he could not speak loudly.
"You are not very early. I plan to take the second grade of the Navigation Department to read the book..." Ortega shook the book in his hand, glanced at Xia Zuo again, and said, "How are you? Why are you here so early?"
"Oh, I'm going there. I haven't finished reading the last book yet..." Xia Zuo pointed to the north and said perfunctorily, not daring to explain in detail.
"Where is he?"
"He just came in and I saw it."
A fierce shout suddenly appeared at the entrance of the library. Many students who were reading frowning and looked up, but saw several senior students of the fighting academy with angry faces. The man in charge looked tall, looked seventeen or eighteen years old, had a rough face, had a meticulous hair, was wearing a white fighting uniform, and the golden silk fist gloves in his hand looked shiny.
"It's Flother."
"What is he here to do?"
Frother entered the academy with a black certificate two years ago. He was a third-grade student in the fighting academy and a junior fighting player of the "Furious Fist" who was a junior, but he was known as a rare genius because he had understood the fighting skills "28 Dragon Boxing Style" early. It is said that he had challenged fourth-grade students in private but was undefeated. He is a very famous figure in the academy.
Flother and several senior students from the Fighting Academy entered the library and kept looking around, as if they were looking for someone.
Many students who read books lowered their heads and covered their faces with books. Looking at the expressions of Floser and others, they were obviously here to make trouble, and someone would probably be in trouble.
"There is there! He is there!" The fat man behind Flosser raised his hand and pointed to the corner excitedly.
Flothor turned his head suddenly and then walked over angrily. He didn't even turn around the way, and even knocked over two tables, which showed how bad his mood was now.
Xia Zuo looked up at Flothy who was approaching step by step, blinked for a while, for no reason.
I didn't seem to have messed with this guy.
