The periphery of the underground city is dark, but the interior is brightly lit, the street lamps on the streets, the signboards in front of the shops, there are lights flickering in every place, but there has been at least a few decades of no one to operate and patronize, although every once in a while there will be special robots to clean and repair, but in any case can not retain the "vitality" that is gradually dissipating.

That's right, the city that has lost its "vitality" is like a dead city, with fire hydrants, billboards, telephone poles, everything is like clip art with cold colors, giving people a sense of lifelessness.

"Be careful," Bruno said to the two men who were following him, "Winter sends his robots around these streets every day, and if you come across them, don't panic the two of you, those robots are different from the combat type, they will only move in a set route, you should not see them." ”

"What does that mean?"

After listening to Bruno's words, Turtledove's face was full of doubts, - isn't the energy of the underground city about to run out, since this is the case, why does Winter, who has extremely high intelligence in Bruno's mouth, do these superfluous things, such as these buildings in front of him, are no longer in use by tomorrow, why does Winter waste energy to maintain the stable operation of the lighting system, and just turn it off?

"Shh

The little insect stopped the turtledove's words, with "eagle eyes", she not only has good eyes, but also has much sharper hearing than ordinary people, and the little insect heard the sound of "jingling" in the alley at eleven o'clock, and the distance was very far away, and I don't know what the movement was.

"What's wrong?"

The turtledove didn't speak, he was asking the worm in lip language.

"Here we are."

Bruno spat out two words in a deep voice, and the turtledove looked at him and then at the worm, and said in his heart that these two guys really like to talk halfway, isn't this torture?

……

"Ding Ling is the long, Ding Ling is the ......"

A small sound came from far and near, and it sounded like a bell ringing, but what kind of bell could make a movement on its own? --The turtledove was muttering to the scene when a puppy suddenly appeared in an alley in front of him.

Metal head, metal body, metal limbs, metal tail, what appeared in the turtledove's field of vision is clearly a mechanical dog, covered in bright silver, the short tail is still swinging left and right when walking, and what is even more amazing is that it has a red rope tied around its neck, and the end of the rope is held in a white hand.

With big curly blond hair and a long red dress with a high fork, the lady who led the dog looked like a noblewoman, and she followed the bright silver mechanical dog with a yellow shake, looking like she was shopping.

With the advent of noble women, more and more human beings in various costumes came out of the streets, whether they were workers, white-collar workers, and even a man in a postman's costume was delivering newspapers on bicycles.

These people were young and old, men and women, yellow-haired and black-eyed white-skinned white-skinned, and dark-skinned blacks were also prominently listed, but their presence did not add to the city's lively atmosphere, but made people feel creepy, as if they were in a ghostly realm.

Because these people are expressionless, their movements are stiff, and more importantly, there is no trace of sparkle in their eyes, some are just indifferent and empty.

"My God......"

The turtledove couldn't help but whisper, he is not afraid of the sky and the earth, that courage is boundless, no matter how exaggerated the size is, no matter how amazing the shape of the experimental subject can not frighten the turtledove, but when he sees these "people", the turtledove feels that his heart and liver are trembling together, this is a kind of chill that emerges from the cracks in the bones.

"They're all made from human corpses?"

Worm turned to Bruno beside him, and after receiving an affirmative answer from the other party, Worm couldn't believe that all this was true.

In fact, the robots the two of them encountered earlier were like this, with a layer of human corpses on the outside and a complete metal structure on the inside, which looked like humans on the surface, but in fact they were all robots.

……

"Let's go, these guys won't be aware of our presence, they can just follow the set route."

As Bruno said this, the turtledove and the little worm felt strange, and they watched Bruno walk through the middle of these things that they didn't know what to call them, and their hearts grew straight with all their hearts.

"Don't be stunned, hurry up and follow Bruno."

The worm hurried after Bruno, and the turtledove hesitated for a few seconds before he came out of the corner where he was hiding, and he kept telling himself, "These are just robots, these are just robots," but the horror still came at him like a tide, and the turtledove blinked his eyes twice, and he wanted to throw out the messy thoughts in his head, but when he opened his eyes, the noble lady with the puppy had already come to him.

"Ahh

The turtledove was so frightened that he screamed, and he subconsciously wanted to raise his fist and beat the other party even people and dogs, but Bruno grabbed the turtledove's raised fist and said:

"These robots don't react to the outside world, but you can't get in their way, let alone destroy them, or Winter will know that someone has broken into its territory."

Bruno pulled the turtledove aside, and the lady with the puppy continued to move along the set route, and the turtledove watched her fade away, and her scalp couldn't stop exploding.

"Hurry up, we're going right ahead."

The turtledove followed Bruno, and the worm had found the hardware store, where she was wondering how to get in.

"Don't worry too much, just push the door in."

As Bruno spoke, he pushed open the door of the hardware store, and the worm couldn't help asking:

"Is it possible to come and go in the buildings of the city? Winter didn't lay a trap or anything like that? ”

"No," Bruno replied to the bug's question, "Winter has done so much to maintain the original appearance of the city, whether it is the lighting facilities or the passers-by on the streets, and Winter has wasted a lot of energy for this, even today when the energy dome is about to be unsupportable, Winter still has not made any compromises in this regard, so the buildings in the city are safe, the same as before."
