Chapter 106: I'm afraid, I won't be able to wake up
As the door opened, a darker color came into view than in the floor. And immediately after, there was a faint ray of broken light, faintly beating.
The faint shattered light blends in with the light in the room, neither dazzling nor inconsistent. It's as natural as a firefly in a bush at night.
"Talos, I'm here to pick you up......"
Rin Rin's voice was small, and he could almost be said to have stepped cautiously into this dark room.
The room was quiet only with the sound of his own breathing lingering in his ears, and he followed the light all the way in, only to see a faint flash of light like glass reflected in the deepest depths.
Walking in, Rin Rin saw the full picture of the huge object. Sure enough, it was a transparent glass case that was assembled separately on all sides.
The octagonal body of the box is pointed, and it floats around the substance that shimmers with a shimmering light.
There was a thick red cushion inside, and on top of that cushion, Talos was curled up, lying quietly inside.
"Talos ......"
Rin approached lightly, her palm gently pressed against the glass surface, as if she wanted to touch the sleeping doll inside.
"He can't hear it now." The envoy who followed behind him suddenly spoke.
"Why?"
Rin felt a little nervous for a moment, but she still tried her best to suppress it, so that she could maintain her most basic calmness and not lose her temper.
"The boxes where we store the armed figures are made of special materials, waterproof, moisture-proof, and soundproof, so your voice can't get in. Moreover, even if it can be transmitted, with his current physical state, I am afraid it will be a little difficult. β
The demon's expression remained normal, and it was clear that what he was saying was a cruel sentence with a result. But the tone was as relaxed as if he said, 'It's so nice today'.
Rin Rin's hand was pressed against the glass, and gradually, it was clenched into a ball.
The skin rubbed against the glass intensely, making a bitter, harsh grinding sound.
The envoy standing behind her just looked at the painful look of her emotions that she had nowhere to vent, and was just silent.
They work in the armed puppet system, and they have seen a lot of things like this.
Armed dolls, with beautiful looks and exquisite workmanship. For different purposes and situations, many people possess such humanoid weapons. But in the process of getting along with them, I got used to such an existence, and paid more and more.
It's just that dolls are just dolls after all. Even if they can have life and gain powerful spiritual power, they are beautiful enough to make most people want an appearance.
But this humanoid weapon that has almost all the advantages has no way to have a feeling.
Even a little, not so perfect, just a little closer to human feelings, they will not have.
This is the armed doll, which was originally set to look like.
So the main reason why this envoy just looked at Rin like this, but chose to watch silently.
Because in his opinion, Rin Rin is just one of the many magic messengers of the present generation, who puts too much emotion into the puppet, but it is impossible to get a response.
"Can I take him back?" After a few moments, Rin finally spoke.
"It's up to you to decide this, we're just responsible for the preservation."
"So, let me ask you one last time, is there really no way for Talos's body to recover?"
In fact, the purpose of Rinrin's visit this time is to take Talos home. The second is to ask if there is a way to fix it.
It's just that I didn't expect that in just a few days, Talos not only did not look like he had been repaired and treated, but also fell into a deep sleep.
This is obviously more difficult than before.
"At least there's no way on our side, unless ......"
At this point, the envoy's words suddenly paused. It was as if he was hesitating, hesitating whether to continue.
"Unless anything!" Rin Rin's eyes lit up, obviously capturing the glimmer of hope that he hadn't fully spoken.
"Unless, you can find the current puppeteer. Today's armed dolls are all made by her, and she is the only one who has the skills and ability to make restoration dolls. β
β¦β¦
After the death of Rinrin's father, in order to ensure that the production and use of armed dolls would not be terminated, the association found them from nowhere and set up heavy soldiers to protect them.,The current second-generation puppeteer.γ
It's just that no one has ever seen her before, neither male nor female, nor her age.
The only thing she knows is that the puppeteer lives under the protection of the association, and has not left any trace to the outside world except for batches of dolls flowing out of her hands.
But it should be said that the production of this puppeteer is not ordinary.
It's as if there's nothing else to do but make armed dolls, and it's not as efficient as ordinary people.
"So, if you have a way to find the second-generation puppeteer, even if his injuries are serious, it shouldn't be difficult to repair. If not, then be prepared to change the spirit of contract. β
As he spoke, the envoy took out a large box from the corner of the room and opened it and laid it flat on the floor.
But after hearing these words, Rin felt even more foggy.
Where is she going to find such a puppeteer who has not left the slightest trace or clue in the outside world, but just stays on 'having heard of it'?
"There's a spiritual power collection device on the wall, you go over there and inject spiritual power, and you can open the glass box." The envoy was busy untying the box in his hand, so he casually arranged for Rin.
Rin made a loud noise, and lowered his hand into the device placed on the wall.
This is a design similar to the association's database, and it can only be opened after entering the information of the person's spiritual power.
Sure enough, after obtaining Rinrin's personal information, he heard a 'tick' sound, and the glass cabinet with Talos placed next to it was opened in a folded and open form.
The surrounding fluorescence dissipated, and the whole room became a little darker.
Talos lay quietly on the cushion, his fair complexion seemed to be a little more transparent and pale yellow than before, and he looked less healthy than the simple white before.
Because he couldn't see it so clearly through the glass just now, when he got completely closer, Rin noticed that although Talos was not wearing clothes, the injured area was carefully covered with a cloth of a similar color to his skin.
"Excuse me, can you get out of the way a little bit?"
Behind him, the envoy had probably packed the suitcase. Seeing Rin standing still in front of the doll for a long time, he patted her on the shoulder and said.
Rin was summoned by this to come back from her stunned stupor and move away from the glass box where Talos was lying.
Then, the envoy took out a pair of white gloves from his pocket and put them on his hands. He took off a white coat from the wall and put it on his upper body.
Buttoning it up, and after making sure that none of the clothes he was wearing were exposed, he put his hands inside Talos's neck and legs, respectively.
As Talos was picked up in his arms, the joints that had been immobile for a long time made a 'click' sound.
The envoy's movements were very skillful, and it was evident from the way he changed into a white coat and gloves and the way he carried him that he must have been engaged in this kind of work for a long time, and he was very familiar with the maintenance and taboos involved.
The bodies of armed dolls are usually made according to the body shape of regular adults, although occasionally some juvenile bodies are made, and juvenile bodies are easy to enter and exit smaller areas, but their materials are destined to make the body weight of the dolls not too light.
The magic envoy in front of him was obviously a little red, and it was a little difficult to pick up a doll like Talos.
But even so, his steps are still steady. Not even the waist was bent a little by the weight of the bosom.
The envoy gently placed Talos in the box he had prepared, and then shook his shoulders with a look of relief.
He put Talos's body back in place, still curled up in a deep sleep.
It is said that this is the most comfortable position for the doll.
The exterior of this box is a navy blue flocked material, and the inside is the same as the glass case, clean white satin upholstery.
The four corners of the box are soft cotton inlay design, silent, shock-imitating, and have a certain degree of safety protection.
"Okay, I'll send you outside." As he spoke, the envoy had already covered the box and re-fastened the outer straps, picked it up casually, and walked out of the door.
Rin Rin looked at this series of actions of the demon envoy brother in a daze, and suddenly felt that he was a rookie dog who didn't understand anything at all!
And about the maintenance of the armed puppet, how it seems to be more delicate than her own life.
All the way out of the top floor, because I got used to the previous dark color, I felt that the sunlight in front of me was a little dazzling.
"Are you sending the puppet out again?"
"No, it was the owner who took it."
On the way, occasional magic envoys met, smiled at each other, and chatted for a few or three words.
But between the words, Rin also heard something from it. In this place, there are too many wounded armed dolls they have seen.
Those who were sent in due to injuries and then sent away again because they could not be repaired and handed over to the association for recovery and delisting.
But in this back and forth, there are few people like Rin Rin who took the injured puppet back.
"I'll send it here first, and then you can get a car back by yourself." With that, he put the suitcase in his hand on the ground and went back.
Rin thanked him and went to pick up the box. But as soon as she started, her face darkened.
This, this guy is too heavy, isn't heyββ!
Rin Rin recalled that the little demon envoy brother had accompanied him down all the way, carrying such a heavy big box, and still talking and laughing with others without changing his face.
I couldn't help but secretly slander in my heart, this magic envoy of the Cloud Hidden Association is really a 'pervert' beyond the reach of ordinary people......!
With a dark face, Rin dragged the box with both hands all the way, and finally carried him into the car and took him home.
When he got home, Rin almost lost his strength, and put the box at the door, while he lay on the floor with no image, gasping for air.
"This home is so quiet ......"
Rin rolled over and looked at the large box beside her.
Talos, the stupid man who was still noisy in this house, stupid, and would make himself angry, is now sleeping in the box so quietly.
However, where to find the second-generation puppeteer?
Thinking about it, Rin didn't know when she fell asleep. Until she opened her eyes, she suddenly got up from the ground, and there were fine beads of sweat on her forehead.
Suddenly, Rinrin's eyes lit up, "That's right, there!" I'm sure you'll find news of the puppeteer there! β
