Chapter 016: A Weak Heart

A new day is coming, and Shen Lu opened his eyes on time at seven o'clock in the morning.

Stretch your waist, beat your slightly sour back, twist your neck, and after a simple wash, you can make egg waffles for breakfast.

After feeding Fucheng, Shen Lu exchanged the ingredients for making mint water, first made mint water, and then took tools to go out to pick up garbage.

Today is a rare day when there is no sun, and it is overcast with light rain.

Shen Lu opened his palm to catch a little rain, and the raindrops that fell on his skin were dyed a light black, with a rotten smell.

It's not like acid rain, but it's also a phenomenon that comes after serious environmental pollution.

Shen Lu didn't have a raincoat or an umbrella, so she raised her eyes to the sky, wondering whether to travel in the rain.

This is too dirty, there is nothing to cover the rain, it will wet his hair and clothes, and the thought of being surrounded by the smell of the scene makes Shen Lu's face collapse.

"Shen Lu." Granny Kim stood by the door of her house and beckoned to her, "Come here." ”

Shen Lu blocked his head with his hand and trotted over.

"Granny Kim, what's wrong?"

Granny Jin took out a half-worn raincoat and draped it on her, "You can't get drenched in this rain, you will get sick if you get too much rain." ”

She pulled her hat, "This raincoat is just for food." ”

A person is lonely and old, and suddenly someone treats you well, and Granny Jin is a little uneasy.

She and Shen Lu can only be regarded as meeting in Pingshui, and they dare not enjoy the benefits with peace of mind.

The raincoat is not a valuable thing, it is better than Shen Lu needs it now.

Shen Lu didn't know that Granny Jin's inner drama was so rich, but she could guess a little bit of Granny Jin's meaning, so she accepted it with a smile.

"Thank you, Granny Kim."

Shen Lu took a step, "Then I'll go first." ”

It's raining today, and there are fewer people coming to the dump.

Although picking up garbage can be exchanged for food, if you get sick from the rain, it is very difficult to get there.

Shen Lu rummaged over the place where he dumped the new garbage yesterday and found some copper pieces.

A raincoat can shelter from the rain, but it also obscures a part of the vision.

Shen Lu casually followed a path to probe, and unconsciously arrived at the place where the metal garbage was piled high yesterday.

"Dididi-"

The frequency of the detector chirped quickly, and Shen Lu's eyes lit up, which meant that there were either a lot of precious metals here, or the metals were very rare.

It was an L-shaped robotic arm part, stuck in layers of metal.

Shen Lu pulled it tentatively, and deliberately looked at the tower made of metal above his head.

Luckily, it didn't shake.

Shen Lu increased his strength.

As she was about to pull the parts out, there was a cracking sound above the metal tower.

Not good.

Shen Lu gritted his teeth, his heart was horizontal, he grabbed the parts and didn't let go, and at the same time pushed back hard, and finally pulled the thing out.

The metal tower then collapsed.

Shen Lu ran wildly with her head covered, she had already seen the direction, as long as she ran to the left, if she was fast enough, she would not be hit by the falling metal tower.

She didn't take two steps before she bumped into someone.

Die.

With so few people coming to the garbage dump today, how can you still bump into people?

Shen Lu didn't care about the hurt nose and reached out to push the person.

The hand did not touch the person, but was grabbed by the other party.

"You ......" Shen Lu is really about to die, is there anything that can't be out of danger?

Before the words fell, Shen Lu was dragged by the other party and ran up.

It was a bit inaccurate to say that he was running, almost running, and for a moment, Shen Lu felt like a kite, and it was difficult for his feet to touch the ground.

The wide rain hat blocked a lot of vision, and Shen Lu could only see the other party's bony hand, because of the strength of the green tendons.

It's clearly a man's hand.

The large and small metal towers behind him are like dominoes, toppling one after another, and the rumbling movement is endless.

After running for half an hour, the man who was dragging Shen Lu to run wildly stopped.

Shen Lu propped his knees, gasping for air, his lungs like tattered bellows.

Almost...... I almost didn't get killed by the garbage, but I suffocated because I had difficulty breathing due to running wildly.

The metal tower collapsed, stirring up a large amount of dust, and for a while, it was dusty, and Shen Lu had to try his best not to take such a big gulp.

At a young age, she didn't want to get pneumoconiosis.

Undisguised disdain sounded beside him, "I haven't seen someone as stupid as you for a long time." ”

Listen to the voice is very young, between a boy and a man.

What's more, Shen Lu felt a little familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.

She pressed her mask to minimize dust inhalation and looked up.

"It's you?!"

Shen Lu recognized him.

It seems to be called Zeng Xiaodao, and she vaguely remembers others calling him that.

Zeng Xiaodao did not wear a raincoat, but wore a silver hat, the clothes seemed to have the effect of waterproofing, and the water droplets floated on the cloth and did not dip into it.

The young man's thick black knife raised his eyebrows, and he pulled out a sneer: "It's me, what's wrong?" ”

It was only at this time that he found out that this was not the girl who secretly stretched out her leg to trip him yesterday?

Cut, I wouldn't have saved her if I had known.

Shen Lu's heart was weak at first, but he quickly returned to normal.

Empty heart.

She tripped him yesterday, yes, but he hit her too.

"Thank you."

But things are one yard at a time, yesterday they have been evened, but today Zeng Xiaodao saved her, and it is right to say thank you.

"Just a thank you want to send me away?" Zeng Xiaodao was obviously not so easy to fool, he lowered his eyes, and his gaze fell on the metal arm parts in Shen Lu's hand, "This should be the reward." ”

Shen Lu subconsciously put Dong XZ behind him: "No." ”

Zeng Xiaodao looked at her funny: "I'm not discussing with you." ”

What she desperately wants to hold in her hand must be valuable.

Zeng Xiaodao is not a badly kind person, of course he has to be paid for saving Shen Lu.

Shen Lu flattened his mouth.

He can't exchange a few dollars for the mechanical arm when he takes it, so she's different.

You can exchange the metal inside for a lot of ingredients.

"Well, I want this to be useful." Shen Lu stumbled and lied, "This section should be part of the human exoskeleton, it can be used if you repair it, I also have an older brother, he is seriously injured and bedridden, I need this." ”

"Oh, yes?" Zeng Xiaodao didn't believe it at all.

"Hmm...... Or I can pay you for saving me with something else. Shen Lu had a flash of inspiration, "I will set up a stall to sell food every day, just on Pinjin Street, you can come and eat a set meal for free this month, how about it?" ”

If Shen Lu wants to say anything else, Zeng Xiaodao may not be moved.

Free to eat?

He swallowed involuntarily.

"Just you? What can you sell? It can't be a bug cake, right? ”

"No, I sell mint water and egg waffles, and I'm going to prepare a new Malatang today, it's delicious."

Zeng Xiaodao squinted, it turned out that the stall owner who had been rumored in the seventeenth block and Pinjin Street recently was her.

Zeng Xiaodao rarely goes to Jinjie, and he goes at night, and he is perfectly staggered with Shen Lu.

"Then you give me the robotic arm first, and then make a decision when I have tasted what you have on the stall."

Shen Lu held his breath, and wanted to scold him for not eating, not eating and pulling down, and by the way, he would give him electricity with an anti-wolf stick.

But Zeng Xiaodao saved her after all, and she couldn't do anything to take revenge.

"Okay." Shen Lu compromised and handed over the mechanical arm, "I'll pick up the garbage for a while and go to set up a stall, you can come over for lunch." ”

Zeng Xiaodao took the mechanical arm, and snorted his nose as a promise.
