Chapter 10 The Mystery of the Source of the News

"Have you found the source of the Haro that sent the message?"

The Haro in front of Lux at this time was the one imitated by He Kui. Its pink and round body was rolling on the ground. Its AI behavior setting language had been deleted, and it just kept repeating [June City No. 7, nuclear bomb] in a mechanical voice.

"Not sure yet."

"Hmm"

Looking at the Haro in front of her, Lux frowned slightly.

Will it be Orb? Or the East Asian Republic? Although the Oceania Union and the United States of South America have both expressed their pro-PLANT stance, these two countries have no reason to help PLANT, nor do they have the ability to know the Atlantic Federation's combat plan in advance. As for the Eurasian Federation's anti-PLANT attitude, it is only second to the Atlantic Federation and has no reason to help them.

Orb has a neutrality declaration and should not want the situation to deteriorate. As for the East Asian Republic, it is also inclined to continue to use them and will not do such a thing as killing the goose that lays the golden eggs.

But nothing was found. Has May City been infiltrated so thoroughly?

It seems that we need to find out more clearly, which also concerns the foundation of the five major design bureaus.

"Then Hello, stay here. You've worked hard."

Touching Hello's head, Lacus chuckled.

"No, it's what I should do!"

The man in the suit was so excited by Lacus' praise that he bowed and then left in a proper manner.

[You gave Lacus Klein a gift, MS operation skills +6]

[Lacus Klein's current favorability 0]

[Experience bonus 0]

[MS operation skills D level: (256/500)]

Looking at the sudden prompt on the virtual panel, He Kui, who was operating the machine at his workstation, paused for a moment, and the circuit in his hand almost broke down again with some sparks.

"What happened this time!"

Su Lei looked at He Kui angrily at the main operating table in front of her with dissatisfaction.

"Sorry"

"If you do it again, I will deduct your bonus!"

[Su Lei's favorability 77]

[Experience bonus 3]

It seems that he is really hated, and Su Lei really cares about this research

He Kui looked at the prompt in front of him with a headache and did not dare to be distracted again. He began to work diligently with other assistant engineers to continue to tinker with the internal structure of the fairing detection device in front of him.

This fairing detection device is equipped on the long-range assault reconnaissance Jin En. With various powerful information data link processing systems, it can quickly transmit battlefield intelligence information in front to the rear command center.

In short, it is a scout. What they are doing now is to try their best to find the optimal solution through various fine-tuning.

After the initial excitement, He Kui quickly calmed down.

No, even if he knew that Lux could affect his driving skills, he now has no ability to approach the other party.

He was just a small assistant engineer, and he was still a long way from the princess of PLANT. Besides, Lux must have received his message. He didn't want to deliver it to her, at least not yet. Maybe he should go to her fan club more often to give her gifts. This would be okay, although it would take a little time for her to get them, and it wouldn't increase her favorability.

But now was not the time to ask for this. Anyway, he was safe enough here, and it was also good to have a channel that could steadily rise. But his original operation skills were only idiots? It was too discouraging.

After getting off work smoothly and delivering a plate of cold salad to calm Su Lei's anger and raise her favorability back to 85, He Kui was relieved a little.

"Well, Hello did a good job. What is this?"

"Four-legged transport robot."

"Of course I know you made it too?"

Su Lei asked after glaring at him unhappily.

"Yes, yes."

"System too? I remember that the system of this robot is more complicated than Haro, right?"

Although ordinary Haro has hands, He Kui's is a replica of Haro, and the hands have been removed to reduce costs. Haro, who can only speak a few words and jump, is indeed far less complicated in terms of system than this four-legged transport robot.

"Yes."

"C-level?"

"Yes, thanks to Director Su."

"? Anyway, you can't waste time on micro-management, I don't care about other things."

"Understood! Goodbye then!"

He Kui, who happily gained a lot of system experience points from Su Lei, did not go home, but took his things to find a store specializing in second-hand items.

May City is an engineering city, and there are many such stores. Only when you reach B-level rebates can you get more. Otherwise, although C and D levels are also accepted, they usually keep the price very low, which is why He Kui didn't come before.

"Boss, do you buy second-hand self-made robots?"

"Yes."

The boss looked up at He Kui's uniform of assistant engineer of Hailan Design Bureau and stood up immediately with a warm smile on his face.

"Of course I will buy it. What do you want to sell?"

As we all know, everything made by B-level engineers is good stuff.

"These are ten Haro with radar warning and five transport robots."

He Kui took out the things one by one from his heavy backpack.

And the boss looked at them carefully for a while.

"The quality is fine. The price of recycling is 500 for Haro and 800 for transport robots."

The price of a transport robot made in the factory is 600, but the performance of the production line is not as good as that of He Kui's B-level hand-made products. Handmade products are usually the most expensive, of course, only suitable for those with strong hands-on ability. The products made at C and D levels can only be regarded as inferior products, and the price is similar to that of the production line. Only at B level can they be called craftsmen.

"Okay."

He Kui had no objection. Although the price of Haro was about the same as that of the previous C level, no one would buy this kind of thing if it was sold at a higher price, and it saved him time to set up a stall. As for the transport robot, if he went out and sold it slowly, he might be able to sell it for about 1,000, but if the cost was 500, he could still make a lot of money by selling it directly, and he could use the remaining time to make two more robots, which was actually not a loss.

Not long after, He Kui left with satisfaction, looking at the white currency on his wrist. Of course, he did not forget to add the boss's contact information. In the future, he only needed to rely on the transportation system for recycling, and he didn't even have to come here.

Without the time to set up a stall, he could also work hard to gain experience with Shihe!

Thinking of this, He Kui smiled contentedly.

Of course, the good mood disappeared when he saw the PLANT police in front of him when he returned home.

"Hello, Mr. He Kui."

Facing the other party's serious and hard face, He Kui nodded doubtfully.

"Hello?"

"Don't worry, we just came here to ask you about Mr. Kazama."

"Naoki Kazama?"

He Kui repeated uncertainly.

"Yes."

He Kui still exchanged a puzzled look with Shihe, only to see Shihe shook his head, obviously not knowing what it was.

"Then ask."

He Kui made a gesture of invitation and invited the two police officers into the room.

"Okay, thank you for your cooperation."
