Chapter 43: Insidious (Part II)
Leaving the secluded street corner where everyone was hiding, Robin and Lee followed the example of the other Federalists, appearing shoulder to shoulder on the bustling streets of the industrial area.
Since their purpose is to listen to the news, Robin secretly observes the behavior and living habits of the Federalists along the way, secretly writes down all the places that are different from the Republic, and compares them with the old-time movies he watched when he used to read, so as to understand the behavior and thinking patterns of the Federalists on his own.
"Hey! ~How about the two chicks over there? ”
Just as Robin was still observing the place across the street that was infested with soldiers, Li suddenly poked Robin with his elbow, squeezing his eyes with a hippie smile.
"Huh?"
Robin followed Lee's gaze and found that there were two young girls dressed in ** in the direction Lee was pointing, leaning on a vending machine to drink drinks.
"Damn, you don't really think you're here to pick up girls, do you?" Seeing that Li was already wincing at the two girls over there, Robin couldn't help but say angrily.
"If you don't talk to them, how can you find out the news, besides, if we two young and strong young men don't go to talk to a beautiful girl, can't we go to find a bad wife." Saying that, Li laughed ill-willedly: "Don't worry, I will never tell Cecilia, you can rest assured." ”
“……”
Helplessly showing a wry smile, Robin could only be reluctantly pulled by Li to walk over there.
Li Hangerlang hooked Robin close to the two girls, and put his arms on the vending machine with a hippie smile: "Hey, girls, are you waiting for someone?" ”
"yes, but it doesn't seem to be you." A girl with dark eyeshadow smiled at Li Jiao and replied.
In the Raymond Federation, young people are very bold both men and women, and similar pick-up girls meet countless times every day, and federal girls who like to use young and beautiful as a show off capital don't mind being picked up by others, and even they like this feeling of being noticed very much.
And Lee is obviously used to this kind of thing, so now he looks completely like a native of the Federation.
"Hey! Hey! ~You're going to make me sad when you say that. Li looked left and right with an exaggerated expression, and said to the girl in a regretful tone: "Look, the people you are waiting for do not seem to come, but we are standing here. ”
Lee's words made the girl who looked a little hotter smile flamboyantly, and she looked at Li and Robin, and their handsome looks obviously won her favor, so she even began to bow her head and whisper to the girl next to her with some interest, laughing from time to time.
And just as the girls seemed to agree to go on a date with Lee, the girl with dark eyeshadow suddenly saw something, so she pointed to the distance with regret: "It seems that you are not very lucky, the person we are waiting for has already come." ”
Robin, who had been silent, turned his head to look in the direction the girl was pointing, and his pupils suddenly contracted, and he dragged Lee away from where he had been standing.
Call! ~
I only felt a gust of air currents blowing, and two wild Federal Hummer 3 maglev motorcycles crossed between Robin and the girl with a beautiful tail flick, and the place where the vehicles were parked at this moment happened to be where Li was standing just now.
"Fuck, you ......"
Feeling provoked, Li wanted to rush forward, but was grabbed by Robin and pulled behind him.
In the wild roar of the high-power engine, a burly man in the uniform of the Federation Army infantry stepped off the locomotive, and his companion looked at Robin and Lee's clothes with disdain, hugged the two Federation girls into his arms, and raised his chin defiantly: "Cut, two mechanics from Alex Machinery Company, just want to soak our chicks?" ”
“……”
Robin's military status made Robin a little nervous, he paid attention to the other party's body shape, and vaguely felt that the two people in front of him should not be very strong, but they were only good at strength.
This was originally just Robin's habitual surname, but feeling Robin's gaze, the two arrogant federal soldiers in front of them had a chill for no reason, and it felt like they were being peeped at by some kind of carnivore, which made them suddenly feel a little hairy.
After hesitating glances at each other, the short-haired federal soldier suddenly asked, "Have you served in the army?" ”
In the Federation, most young people have served in the military, which is why this federal soldier asked. And Robin, although they had never had an in-depth understanding of the Raymond Federation, had heard about the military service of the Federation Army, so they nodded quietly.
Seeing that Robin had indeed served in the army as they thought, the two federal soldiers couldn't help but show a look of sudden realization. To be honest, they did want to provoke and find trouble just now, but Robin's inadvertent temperament made them a little jealous. After all, fighting also depends on the object, and if the other party served in the special battalion before retiring, it would be a little unwise to rashly provoke.
"When you look for girls in the future, you have long eyes, and who in this neighborhood doesn't know that they are our horses! ~" As if trying to fight for face in front of the girl, the short-haired federal soldier poked Robin's chest and said a cruel word.
Robin didn't want to make trouble, so he didn't care about the provocation of the federal soldiers, which couldn't help but disappoint the two federal girls who were in high spirits on the side.
"Get in the car! ~”
Feeling Robin stunned by himself, the federal soldier showed a smug smile, pretended to step into the car, and pulled the hot girl into the back seat.
But just as they wanted to drive away, the Humvee 3 maglev motorcycle, which looked extremely stylish, suddenly sounded a strange engine sound, and then, only to hear a 'bang', a puff of black smoke suddenly came out of the engine, and it turned off the engine very shamelessly.
"! ~”
Annoyed, the Union soldier jumped out of the car and kicked the motorcycle hard. The scene in front of him made him feel so embarrassed, and the face he had fought for before was now all lost.
And the hot girl sitting on the back seat of the motorcycle was obviously very disappointed, and said with some complaints: "You just want me to walk to the party?" It seems that it's too late for me to change my date! ”
"! ~”
The Federation soldier glanced at his companion angrily, but his companion obviously didn't know how to deal with this kind of mechanical problem, so he could only spread his hands helplessly at him. At this time, he suddenly remembered Robin wearing the uniform of Alex Machinery Company, which was not a machinery company that repaired large machinery for the military department.
"Hey, buddy over there."
Thinking of this, the Federation GI called out to Robin and Lee, who were about to leave.
Robin stopped, turned around and asked lightly, "What's the matter?" ”
"You can fix cars, right? How about fixing it for me? The Union soldier pulled a stack of cash out of his pocket and slapped it on the seat of the locomotive.
Seeing the stack of cash, Robin and Lee couldn't help but exchange glances. After walking around the industrial area of the Federal Army for so long, they have understood that they have to pay cash for everything here, so now that someone sends it to the door, of course they will not refuse, and Robin already has good mechanical skills, which is just the perfect interpretation of their status as a mechanic.
"I'll do it."
Robin casually pulled out a multi-tool knife that he had always carried with him, walked to the side of the car, shoved the money on the saddle into his pocket, and began to disassemble the engine with the tool knife under the smug gaze of the Federal Soldier.
With Robin's mechanical technology that can modify heavy infantry armor, repairing this maglev is a piece of cake. He quickly picked out a few broken parts of the engine, repaired them a little, and quickly put them back on.
"Alright." Putting away the tool knife, Robin turned around and wanted to leave.
"That's it?" The Union GI apparently didn't believe Robin could fix the car so quickly, and hurriedly stepped into the car and started the engine.
Immediately, the engine roared more horsepower than before, and the wild feeling lifted the spirits of the Federation GIs who stepped into the car.
"Haha......" The federal soldier whistled triumphantly and smacked the face of the hot girl next to him.
"Dude, your skills are the best I've ever seen a mechanic."
Robin helped himself, and the attitude of the Union soldiers obviously changed significantly, and he pointed to the lively place opposite that was infested by Federation soldiers from time to time: "How about we make friends, go over there with your buddies for a drink, and write it to me." ”
Robin originally thought that the Federation soldiers over there were too frequent, so he wanted to refuse, but Lee preemptively agreed.
Seeing that Robin and Li were enough to save face, the federal soldiers were obviously very happy, and even took the initiative to drive the car to the opposite side with their companions and shouted a few words to the people inside. Maybe the girl was in a hurry to get to the party, so the Union soldier waved at Robin apologetically and drove away.
"Huh...... Looks like our job is quite popular in the Federation. Seeing that the two Federation GIs were gone, Lee patted Robin on the shoulder and teased.
Robin took out the stack of cash in his pocket and looked at it, laughing at himself in distress: "I don't know if this is enough, maybe I should put up a sign here to help people fix things." ”
"If it's enough, you won't know if you can sit across from each other for a while, someone will pay anyway."
Li put his hands in his pockets and walked to the opposite side, making up his mind to eat and drink for nothing. Robin thought about it and felt that what Li said made sense, so he quickly followed.
Walking into this neon-lit shop in front of the house, Robin's ears suddenly swelled with a deafening burst of heavy metal rock music.
"Damn, what the hell is this place?" Digging hard into his sore ear, Robin leaned into Lee's ear and shouted.
"It feels like a bar from an old-time movie."
Lee pulled Robin into it with an excited face, and saw a bunch of scantily clad men and women huddled together and writhing to the music, and even many girls even took off their bandeau chests, revealing white breasts swaying from side to side.
Seeing this scene, Li immediately whistled excitedly: "Haha...... It's paradise! ~”
Seeing that Li actually wanted to lean over and twist together, Robin hurriedly dragged him back and sat down at the long bar in the corner.
Perhaps because the Union soldier had already instructed him, the bartender at the bar didn't even ask Robin and Lee what they wanted, but instead brought two bottles of beer and placed them in front of them. It seems that this is all the content of that federal soldier's treat, and if you want anything else, I'm afraid Robin will have to pay for it himself.
"Damn, I thought that soldier was so generous." Li unscrewed the cap of the bottle and poured it dissatisfied, and his head began to sway rhythmically to the music.
And seeing that Li was indistinguishable from other Federation people at the moment, Robin could only show a wry smile, took a sip of astringent beer and laughed at himself: "Maybe I should also follow Lee's example and let go a little, how do I feel like a log now...... Well, yes, maybe I should really talk to a few girls about life......"
