Right on Target

The relationship between the doctor and his friends is very good, and he didn't even bother to cover the experimental tank before going to open the door. It opened the door and shouted enthusiastically: "Little Bubble!"

Xie Zhenshu's eyes passed through the doctor's flurry of mechanical arms, but he didn't see the figure of the visitor.

The cold wind was blowing outside the door, and the snowflakes immediately filled the doctor's electronic eyes. He didn't wipe it, but lowered his head first, stretched out a mechanical arm, and shook hands with the visitor gently, as if he was touching something. Fragile items. Only then did Xie Zhenshu see that the person who came was an extremely small robot.

The little robot entered the door, took off the ripped woolen hat he was wearing, and revealed a pair of friendly big eyes. It was wounded, the left arm was dismantled, and there were traces of being twisted in the position of the gap, and the internal parts were exposed, but they were all wiped clean.

The doctor closed the door, stood among them, and introduced them: "Little Bubble, this is my new friend Mr. Xie. He is very nice and gentle, and he will not shoot casually. Don't be afraid. Mr. Xie, this is my friend." My good friend Little Bubble, it is an excellent cleaning robot. It is fate that we meet here, come, let’s shake hands!"

Xie Zhenshu stretched out his hand politely, but Little Bubble was a little scared. It hid behind the doctor, only looking at Xie Zhenshu with a pair of eyes. After a while, under the persistent encouragement of the doctor, it tremblingly stretched out its remaining shovel hand and said, "You...I..."

Its electronic sound is very quiet, and there is a "beep" noise in the middle. Xie Zhenshu is not far from it, but I can't hear what it is saying clearly.

The doctor scratched his head habitually, and explained: "We were blown up when we were picking up trash last time. Since then, there has been a problem with its sound-generating device. I haven't been able to find a machine to repair it. Let me be an interpreter. It said 'Hi, my name is Little Bubble'."

After a brief introduction, Xie Zhenshu knew the origin of Little Bubbles. It used to be a cleaning robot at the light rail station, and was dispatched to work here after Doomsday. It usually works in incinerators and laboratories, where robots of this type are needed to clean regularly. But the main **** system has a very strict hierarchy, and cleaning robots like them have to be driven by higher-level robots, so they are often used as temporary parts kits, and this is how Little Bubble lost his left arm. A friendship is born when a doctor sees him while cleaning out a garbage truck and helps him get fit.

The doctor and Little Bubbles whispered to each other and nodded from time to time. After a while, it said: "Mr. Xie is here to find a friend, and that person's code name is 7-006. Do you know 7-006?"

Little Bubble shook his head.

The doctor turned around and said to Xie Zhenshu: "Little Bubble often goes to clean it, and knows a lot of things that I don't know, but just telling it the code name is not enough, you have to show it the photo. Do you have a photo with 7-006? "

Xie Zhenshu doesn't even have Su Heting's arrest warrant, so there are no photos.

The room fell silent for a while, and the doctor suddenly had a flash of inspiration, knocked on his forehead, and said, "I have a solution!"

It asked Xie Zhenshu for Su Heting's chip, held it up to Little Bubble, and showed Little Bubble the tiny serial number on it.

The doctor said: "These chips were all thrown out of the laboratory. Did you see the owner of this chip when you cleaned it? A good-looking boy with a pair of black cat eyes, who looks like a bad boy... "

What is a black cat's cat's eye, the three people present didn't know it, and the doctor didn't bother to explain it. It babbled and described Little Bubble, but confused Little Bubble.

Little Bubble hugged the woolen cap, looked at the doctor and Xie Zhenshu, suddenly pointed to his head, acted as if thinking, and closed his eyes and made a hard sound.

The doctor tilted his head and said to Xie Zhenshu: "Its information is stored in its head, and it is going to retrieve some suspicious photos for you to see. But it will take some time to retrieve it, so you have to wait."

Little Bubble's big eyes were closed tightly, and the display screen on his chest lit up, with a gorgeous loading icon on it.

The information storage capacity of this kind of cleaning robot is very small, and it is usually only responsible for simple tasks, so the main **** system does not include them in the scope of "eyes", and only uses them as low-level tools. However, after becoming friends with it, the doctor found that , In fact, the information storage of Little Bubbles is selective, and it will save some things that it thinks are meaningful.

The icons on the screen turned faster and faster, and Little Bubble's expression gradually changed from "v" to "mouth". It reads very slowly, and not only does its head make a sound like a bellows, but it also emits smoke.

The doctor panicked when he saw Yan, and hurriedly said: "Forget it, forget it! Your head is going to be broken!"

Little Bubbles trembled all over, the screen on the chest flickered, and finally froze with a beep. It fell backwards like a leak, stuck itself in the seat, resumed the "v" expression, and patted its display screen at them.

The doctor stretched his neck to look, and saw a personal picture on the monitor. It stroked its chin and said to Xie Zhenshu: "Why do I think this person is not, do you think this is 7-006?"

Xie Zhenshu said: "No."

Little Bubbles switched to the next one, and a few minutes later, Xie Zhenshu discovered that all the photos it showed him were the photos of Black Panther members. Most of these Black Panther members were lying on the hospital bed, and they should have just finished the operation to remove the chip.

The doctor pointed to the corner of a certain photo, where there was a half outline of a robot, and said: "This is an experimental robot. They are all my younger brothers. Now they are flourishing. They are like a moralist. They always report other machines, and they are not allowed." We talk dirty."

The younger brother it mentioned is actually a robot assistant extended from this type of robot. It also served Artemis at first, but later took refuge in other main **** systems, so it still has a lot of authority, and it can be compared with the farm. human contact.

Both the doctor and Little Pao Pao hated the experimental robot, and they gathered together and muttered bad things about the experimental robot, and Xie Zhenshu heard a number of "3366". He didn't know who this number was. He just looked at the photo and noticed that the experimental robot also had eight arms.

Little Bubble cut a few more photos. The angle of view it took was low and the light was limited, so the faces of many people were blurred. After a while, its inventory was running out, and there were only two left.

Xie Zhenshu waited for it to cut through, then suddenly fixed his eyes and said, "Wait a minute."

The doctor looked at the picture and said, "Wow, 7-006 has become a robot!"

On the photo lies a disassembled robot.

Xie Zhenshu said: "No, zoom in here."

Little Bubble enlarged one corner, revealing the side face hidden in the darkness to Xie Zhenshu's eyes. The officer's heart beat wildly, and he stared at the side face, sure that it was Su Heting.

He asked, "Where is this?"

Little Bubble answered, and the doctor translated: "The laboratory is a bit far from here."

Xie Zhenshu said: "What are they doing? Split?"

The doctor said: "I'm doing experiments. There are thousands of experiments here. I haven't heard of many of them. However, machine experiments are generally separated from human experiments. Little Bubbles, do you have any information about this photo? ?”

Little Bubble nodded, flipped through the photo, and wrote a brief message on the back.

[Room N108, replenish nutrient solution. 】

The doctor said: "Nutrition solution! Xuannv also uses nutrient solution."

Little Bubble said that it didn't know what nutrient solution was, it just recorded the information it heard from the experimental robot, whether it could understand it was another matter.

The doctor said: "I understand. They turned 7-006 into an experimental body and stuffed him into an experimental jar, so he can't eat by himself, and they have to rely on them to give him a nutrient solution."

Xie Zhenshu also thought so. The plot of the 14th district trapped Su Heting. He was in a state of uploading consciousness for a long time, so he couldn’t eat on time. The safest way is to give him continuous infusion of nutrient solution so that he won’t lose weight. die.

Little Bubble said with all his strength: "Not often...On...Only...Week...Monday!"

Su Heting doesn't often appear in room N108, because it is a place for machine experiments. Perhaps because the input methods here are limited, only room N108 can supplement him with nutrient solution, so he only appears every Monday.

The doctor's electronic eyes lit up, and said: "Great, today is Saturday, we can see him the day after tomorrow!" But it was not happy for a few seconds, and lowered all the robotic arms, "Wait a minute, room N108, come There have to be three checkpoints there, and I'm not eligible."

Its activity route inside is fixed, and it will be killed by patrol robots if it runs around, and it needs approval to go to the experimental site. Besides, Xie Zhenshu is a person, so he can't be made smaller, and he can't be carried in his pocket.

Suddenly, the doctor knocked his head again, and said: "You can pretend to be a corpse, I'll put you in the car, and you bring the shield, we can go straight to the experiment site."

Little Bubbles turned off the display, put the beanie back on, and agreed. One big and one small, they all looked at Xie Zhenshu.

The chief is used to acting alone, and the people he meets on the southern and northern routes all have ulterior motives. The cooperation with 7-001 also has its own needs. Only Su Heting is the most sincere when he wants to take him away. Facing the two robots at this moment, he was unexpectedly at a loss for words.

After a while, Xie Zhenshu said: "I—"

The doctor has already opened the drawer to say goodbye to the organs. It said: "Goodbye Xiaohua, goodbye Xiaodongfang, goodbye... I'm not here for a few days, you have to be good. And you, Xuannv, can you hear me? You have to help me Take care of the house and don't let anyone in."

The suture heart in the experimental tank kept beating, and when Xie Zhenshu was about to speak, the long and short symbols suddenly lit up on the display screen it was connected to.

This kind of symbol is a "word" invented by Ao Yin, which once appeared in the notebook of the cement building. Those symbols lit up extremely slowly, as if they were drawn with difficulty by a sick person.

But Xie Zhenshu couldn't understand this expression.

The doctor said: "Oh...you are doing the problem again? Don't work too hard."

Xie Zhenshu discovered that he regarded Xuannv as a "he" because the heart was stitched into one, but the doctor kept calling "they".

The doctor covered the experimental cylinder with a rain cloth, and said to Xie Zhenshu: "The temperature will affect their thinking, and they are a group of geniuses."

Genius, experimental tank—these two words are so familiar that Xie Zhenshu immediately thought of the District 14 experiment. In fact, this experimental tank is indeed the same as the glass tank used to hold the experimental body.

These hearts turned out to be the experimental subjects left over from the experiment in Area 14? No wonder they are still "alive". There may be experimental chips in the doctor's stitched heart.

The doctor who had done all this was ready to talk, so it said: "When we find 7-006, put him in the car too, and make sure he doesn't get shot, or he will cry."

Xie Zhenshu's focus was indeed skewed, and he said, "What?"

The doctor said: "He was wounded in the North-South battlefield, and when he woke up, he cried very sadly. I asked him what was wrong, but he didn't say anything."

The officer was silent for a moment, squeezed the 7-006 chip back into his palm, and said, "I know."

The doctor said, "What do you know?"

Xie Zhenshu did not answer. He heard the wind outside the window gradually die down, entering the countdown to action.
