After finishing the last micro-welding operation, Xu Le took off the dark protective goggles on his face with satisfaction. He sorted all the repaired products in the operation room according to the labels on them and placed them neatly into the metal grid. He pressed a button and moved them out of the operation room. The repaired goods would be sent back to the fourth street of Xianglan Avenue the next morning. Xu Le was always prepared in advance out of habit.
After washing his face with hot water, Xu Le familiarly took out the liquid medicine from the drawer and carefully dripped it into his eyes. Although they had the help of various observation devices, the world of those metal chips was a kind of torture to the eyes of every mechanic. And when he was focused on the world of the metal chip, he would forget about the existence of time, so his eyes were a little red.
"Go rest, look at the scenery, and relax the muscles in your eyes." Feng Yu rubbed his white hair and was very satisfied with Xu Le's speed and concentration. In the past half a year, the repair shop on Xianglan Avenue was mostly operated by Xu Le in the remote mine pit. Feng Yu only needed to stay in the shop and only give instructions on weekends. Gradually, Xu Le's speed became faster and faster. He was even faster than Feng Yu, the mechanic in the army.
Xu Le nodded and took out two bottles of juice from the ice room on the wall. He followed behind Feng Yu and walked toward the top of the mine pit.
Listening to the continuous sounds of metal colliding in front of him, he couldn't help but raise his head. Then, he saw the extremely flashy tattered jeans under the uncle's body, as well as the extremely tight buttocks wrapped in the denim, and … a large bunch of keys, five-star knives, and other metal objects that were constantly swinging in the air. From time to time, they would hit the big buttocks, making annoying sounds.
He never understood why Feng Yu wanted to create this image of himself, but Feng Yu told him that the sword in the hands of the swordsman and the gun in the hands of the god of guns never left their bodies. As mechanics, they naturally couldn't let the tools leave their bodies … In fact, Xu Le understood that the uncle just felt that the butt wind chime was very manly and could attract the attention of lonely young women.
It was already late, and the light above Donglin gradually dimmed. The red and dark twilight gradually deepened. On the large pile of metal behind Feng Yu, a dazzling light was reflected. Xu Le's not very big eyes naturally narrowed. Looking at the back of the figure that was struggling to climb the slope, he couldn't help but remember the time when he foolishly walked into the repair shop two years ago.
His relationship with Feng Yu was a bit strange. It was not the relationship between student and teacher, but he did learn the knowledge and practical experience about mechanics that he craved most from Feng Yu.
Although repairing electrical appliances was of no help to his dream of becoming a warship mechanic support officer or entering the capital ring to seek a better life, at least Xu Le obtained a lot of peace and satisfaction from that small repair shop.
Xu Le could not be considered Feng Yu's employee because Feng Yu never gave him a salary. He only left enough food in the freezer. In terms of treatment, the young man could only be considered the most pitiful contract worker in the repair shop on Fragrant Orchid Avenue … but in these two years, Xu Le did earn a lot of money for the repair shop.
"If you're a mechanic officer when you sign up for the military recruitment exam … the government will only reimburse you forty percent." Xu Le looked at the back of the uncle and mustered up his courage to say, "There's only two years left. I have to save some money."
The subtext of this sentence was naturally that he hoped the repair shop owner would give him a salary. However, Feng Yu didn't even turn his head and directly refused. "You were the one who cried and begged me to teach you. Have I ever thought of charging you tuition fees?"
What a shameless person, even more shameless than me. Xu Le thought in his heart, but when he thought of how shameless he was when he ran into the repair shop and hugged the boss' leg without letting go, he didn't have the courage to ask for a salary again. He sighed helplessly, ran forward a few steps, and sat beside Feng Yu.
The two of them were sitting at the top of the mine. Behind them was the shadow of a large city building, but because it was so far away, it was particularly blurry. In front of them was a large green grassland. In the depths of the grassland, they could see towering trees. The refreshing scene of nature was currently giving off a feeling of jumping fire under the setting sun.
"Actually, I've always been very curious." Feng Yu didn't take the juice that Xu Le handed over. Instead, he lit another cigarette and took a deep breath. He greedily looked at the grassland forest in front of him and said, "There are at least a thousand repair shops in the Donglin District. Why did you choose me?"
Xu Le looked at him in surprise. He didn't expect that he would only ask this question two years later. After a pause, he lowered his head and said, "At that time, the automatic vacuum door in the coffee shop was broken. Later, I heard that you fixed it, so I went to look for you."
"That door can be fixed by anyone." Feng Yu didn't even turn his head.
"Maybe it was because you were too happy when you fixed that door …" Xu Le smiled, looking particularly sincere. Suddenly, a trace of slyness flashed through his eyes. "The glueless vacuum seam of the B2 door was done beautifully. The deviation value was on the level of 1,000 points. This is two levels higher than the civilian standard, and even higher than the military standard. From that moment on, I knew that you weren't an ordinary person. "
Feng Yu was a little surprised. He couldn't help but laugh. He turned around and raised his hand as if he wanted to hit Xu Le's head. In the end, he just rubbed Xu Le's messy black hair and said, "You're really crazy. Who would think of measuring that thing?"
"Probably intuition?" Xu Le laughed happily. "I just felt that there was something strange about that door. At that time, I happened to have some money on hand, so I went to buy a fixed light classifier. After measuring it, I found that something was wrong."
"Even the smallest classifier wouldn't be able to fit under the door. I'm very curious, how did you measure it?" Feng Yu was obviously interested.
"Uh …" Xu Le was embarrassed for a moment. After a moment of silence, he said, "I asked Li Wei to help me take down the door of the coffee shop in the middle of the night … Of course, that night, we put it back. I'm not a thief."
Feng Yu couldn't help but laugh and asked, "But I installed an anti-theft device on the door …"
"The one hidden in the laminated glass?" Xu Le lowered his head and answered shamelessly, "I … discovered it immediately. I also … removed it."
Feng Yu suddenly became silent. He quietly looked at the young man beside him and didn't speak for a long time. Two years ago, Xu Le was just a self-taught student who memorized various processes and standards in the library. Unexpectedly, he was able to remove the anti-theft device that he installed himself. It seems that the previous judgment on the sofa was not wrong.
At this time, a few majestic bison, cloaked in the light of dusk, slowly wandered out of the forest and headed in the direction of the mine.
Xu Le and Feng Yu both stopped all thoughts and actions at the same time. They just stared at the bison in a daze. Their eyes emitted a kind of greedy gaze.
"Uncle, we haven't eaten fresh beef in half a year." Xu Le swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked tentatively.
Feng Yu stood up and looked at the endless metal isolation net between the abandoned mine and the grassland. His face was abnormally ugly. He said sorrowfully, "In my life, there are two laws in the Federation that I hate the most. One of them is that damned Wildlife Protection Act."
Xu Le held back his laughter and asked, "What's the other one?"
"The First Charter."
After saying this most arrogant sentence, he took Xu Le in a fierce manner and walked toward the bison on the other side of the isolation net.
