Chapter 344 - The Boy From Tatooine (Part 2)

In the evening, Johnson walked through the smelly roads in this slum. Although most of the surrounding residents knew him, the terrifying shape of the metal skull still kept the area a few meters around him clean.

Johnson knew where Otto lived, and in the alley at the other end of the street, there were about seven or eight turns, but it didn't affect him at all, he had already entered the map of the entire area into the database.

When he walked into the alley, the sound of several people chatting was captured by his sound sensor.

"Have you heard? Otto was killed!"

"What's going on? Who did he mess with?"

"Toketa in the north of the city, that Nikto man. Otto, he fought with Toketa for a smashed E-5 Blaster Rifle, and was wrung out by the angry Toketa!"

"Otto, is he crazy? At noon, I saw him trying to grab the things Anakin picked up! It's really desperate, Anakin's Robot is called Rock Johnson, right? Can it be provoked?"

"You don't know this. Otto's brother broke his leg a few days ago. He should be able to walk after a few months of rest with a good splint. But last night his brother was infected and had a high fever, and Otto, there is nothing in Otto's family to exchange for medicine."

"Hush! Keep your voice down! Look, here comes Johnson!"

Johnson turned his head and moved on. When he came to a dark house, he turned on the thermal imaging sensor and found a human-shaped heat source lying in the house, so he opened the door and went in.

Otto's younger brother was lying on the bed, already very weak, and his body still twitched from time to time, obviously, he was not far from death.

"Brother, brother, are you back...Water...I want to drink water." He opened his chapped lips and whispered. If it weren't for Johnson's sensitive sensor, ordinary people would basically not be able to hear this sound clearly.

Johnson looked around, and the electronic eyes fixed a frame on a can of water at the foot of the wall. The scan concluded that the microorganisms were seriously exceeding the standard, and he would die faster if he drank it. So he turned around and went out, came to a room next to him, picked up a can of water without any explanation, and left.

After feeding the water to Otto's brother, he drank almost all the water in a can of water, then recovered a little energy, and whispered: "You are not my brother, who are you?"

Johnson put the energy transmission device in his hand and said: "Your brother was injured and is undergoing treatment. This is what he got from scavenging today. Although there is only half of the intact energy transmission device, it should be enough for you in the future a week's worth of food."

Brother Otto fumbled to grasp the energy transmission device tightly and held it in his arms like the most precious treasure. His eyesight is severely damaged and he is almost blind, "Thank you... thank you... thank you."

While saying this, his tears kept flowing down like broken pearls, and he already felt it.

"If there is nothing else, then I'm leaving." Johnson stood up and walked out the door.

The sound of his thanks still came from inside the house. Johnson turned his head 180 degrees, looked at the dark room, and said, "Farewell."

Back home, Anakin Skywalker had opened the back of the humanoid robot's head and was soldering in some of the circuits he got today to fit the chip. Hearing Johnson's return, he asked without looking back, "Did you give the things to Otto?"

Johnson came to Anakin and replied: "The things have been given to him, and then he moved away with his brother."

"Thank you, Johnson." Anakin smiled innocently, "No matter what the result is, thank you."

"There is a problem with the soldering of the fourth circuit on the left. You need to re-solder it." Johnson glanced at Anakin's work and pointed to a place.

"Ah, I didn't notice."

One person and one Robot stood together very harmoniously and jointly repaired their painstaking efforts over the past few years-a Droid repaired with parts collected from waste.

At night, Johnson sat on the roof, staring at everything around him non-stop, keeping watch for the mother and son.

Suddenly, there was a slight noise in the house, and then Anakin climbed up, and he sat beside Johnson.

"You should go to bed," Johnson said.

"The light of Tatoo II is a bit bright tonight, and I can't sleep much," Anakin said.

Johnson looked at the dim star in the sky and said, "Let me cover the window for you."

"No, Johnson. I just want to see..." Anakin stared blankly at the sky, "What do you think... what kind of place is it in space?"

"Vacuum, darkness, cold, and no gravity. Ordinary people will die within seconds if they go up." Johnson said.

Anakin shook his head, and asked again: "So, are there angels in the sky?"

"Where did you get that term?" Johnson asked back.

"The retired pilot uncle told me that on the distant Planet Lego, there is the most beautiful creature in the universe, that is an angel, a very beautiful and kind big sister." Anakin yearned very much to look at the sky.

"There are no angels in the sky, but if you continue to sail, you will go to other planets. Those planets are also inhabited by people, and maybe they are looking in your direction now." Johnson said.

Anakin closed his eyes, "I... seem to feel it... But, it's so vague..."

"This is just your hallucination," Johnson said.

"I hope that one day, I can also drive a spaceship and fly in this sky. I want to fly to every corner of the universe, and I want to see this universe... It's just a pity, Benny said that people like us, will never have a spaceship of our own, and no one is willing to take us away." Anakin was a little frustrated.

"Since we can complete the Protocol Droid C-3PO today, we can also build a spaceship tomorrow, I confirm," Johnson said.

"I've been thinking, you probably didn't come from Tatooine, did you, Johnson? Did the story you told me, the three natural disasters, really happen?" Anakin asked.

"My database was damaged and lost most of the data, including my code. But if I can repair the communicator in my body, maybe I can find some clues." Johnson pointed to a place on his head, "As for the Void Demon, the Suzheng Agreement, and the high-dimensional invasion, the annotations in my remaining database are historical classifications. So, maybe this really happened."

Anakin looked at the vast sky again and fell silent again.

After an unknown amount of time, he fell into a deep sleep. Johnson picked him up gently, climbed down from the roof, put him on the bed, and sat quietly next to Anakin all night.
