Chapter 24 - souvenir

The next day, Xiaomei was the first to speak:

"It's full."

After a night of strong winds, the energy storage card of the entire car was fully charged.

Hearing him speak, Ronggui struggled to stick his head out of Xiaomei's arm. The voice he made was also a robot's, but it sounded like a wail: "Indeed... it's full..."

"Ahhhh~ My body is full of sand!!!!"

After a night of strong winds, the holes for wind power generation were all blocked with sand.

"Xiaomei, let me go! I need to go out and shake off the sand~"

Hearing Ronggui's words, Xiaomei's body stiffened, as if she had just realized her actions. She paused, then let go of the mechanical arm that was holding Ronggui's shoulders as if nothing had happened.

Ronggui quickly jumped out to shake off the sand.

Xiaomei sat back in the driver's seat and methodically checked the damage caused to the car body by the strong wind last night. After confirming that there was nothing serious, he jumped out of the car-

Wipe the car. "Don't worry about the car, come here, I'll shake the dirt off for you!" Noticing Xiaomei's movements, Ronggui pulled Xiaomei to his side without saying anything.

Lifting Xiaomei's body, he shook her skillfully. Countless fine sand and gravel rolled out of the body of the old robot.

Xiaomei, who was still holding a rag, let him shake it. After shaking, Ronggui took the rag from his hand and wiped his body.

"Okay! It's your turn to shake me~" After doing all this, Ronggui asked Xiaomei for help with confidence.

The expressionless little robot looked at him, continued to look at him, and finally picked him up in the same way and shook it vigorously.

So, two small piles of sand swelled on the ground.

The raw materials of the sand piles came from the sand and stones in the bodies of the two small robots. Xiaomei's sand pile was shorter, and Ronggui's was taller.

"Hehe~ I can hold more!" After comparing the two sand piles, Ronggui proudly announced the results of his observations.

 Not understanding what to be proud of← glanced at him, Xiaomei went to clean the car by herself.

  There were also a lot of sand and stones in the track. For the next journey, he needed to clean all the sand and soil inside.

  He was very busy.

  Ronggui was also very busy.

  Xiaomei glanced at him while busy and found that Ronggui seemed to be fascinated by the two sand piles.

  He must be looking for an angle to take a photo← Seeing Ronggui moving his head around, Xiaomei thought so in her heart.

  Sure enough, Ronggui sent him the photos he had taken after a while.

  I thought it was over, but Ronggui went back to look at the two sand piles later, just staring at them blankly. After a while, he seemed to have finally made up his mind and ran to the back of the car to take out two sheets. The next moment, he actually tried to pack the two sand piles into the sheets!

  "What are you going to do?" Xiaomei couldn't help asking him about the weight gain of the vehicle.

 "Can't you see? I'm packing the sand pile!" If Ronggui looked at me with human eyes, then this must be a roll of the eyes←Inexplicably, a robot rolling its eyes appeared in Xiaomei's mind.

I was actually scolded by Ronggui...

No, calm down, this guy has a limited brain capacity and can only understand the most superficial meaning. The way he asked was too difficult to understand.

After persuading herself a few words in her heart, Xiaomei paused and asked again: "Of course I saw you packing the sand pile. What I want to ask is why you pack the sand pile?"

Squatting on the ground and looking up at him, Ronggui suddenly "hehe" twice, and the clumsy mechanical palm gently picked up a handful of soil. He said excitedly: "Because these two sand piles are super valuable!"

"?" Xiaomei tilted her head when she heard such an answer unexpectedly.

"...According to my detection, the components of these two sand piles are basically particles of weathered rocks, and there is nothing valuable." He said, and scanned the sand in Ronggui's hand.

 ↑

Although it was elementary, he still installed a basic scanning device in his body, so that he could find usable materials at any time.

Note: Ronggui's body did not install it.

This is probably the only difference between their bodies.

"Oh~ It's not valuable, but commemorative value." Ronggui shook his head quickly, holding the soil in his hand higher, and asked Xiaomei to take a closer look.

"…" However, Xiaomei still couldn't see the value of the soil in his hand.

Commemorative value? Commemorate them being trapped in the windy day, tied to the safety belt in the wind, and covered with sand and dirt?

Xiaomei really didn't think there was anything worth remembering.

  "Xiaomei, you're so stupid!" At this moment, Ronggui spoke again. "Looking" eagerly at the pile of soil in his hand, Ronggui (trying to) say to the soil in his hand with emotion: "This is not ordinary soil!"

  "This place is so big, and there was so much soil mixed in the wind yesterday, but only this soil was blown into our bodies. They may come from different places, and they were not together originally, but they all fell here. What a great fate!"

  "You say, isn't it super——————memorable?" Ronggui said, suddenly looking up, and the two imagers looked at him blackly.

  This... is a perverse theory.

  But I don't know what's going on, combined with Ronggui's posture and words, it actually makes people feel that it makes sense.

  "Then you pack up, I'll continue to clean the tracks." Xiaomei said, then turned around, knelt on the ground, and he continued to clean the tracks seriously.

   Xiaomei's words, Ronggui, who seemed to be praised, worked hard to clean up again.

He packed the two sand piles into two bags, and wrote notes with dye: "Xiaomei's soil" and "Ronggui's soil"

But he only packed them up this time. In the following time, they encountered several windy days. Every time at this time, the two little robots would hug each other. The world was big, and at this moment, it seemed that there were only the two of them.

And every time they survived such bad weather, their bodies must be full of sand again.

Ronggui did not collect the sand anymore.

"They were born here, so let them stay here."

"The sand that wants to go out with us will naturally stay in the gaps of our bodies and cannot be cleaned up."

This is how Ronggui answered Xiaomei's question.

So... romantic...

At this moment, in addition to his small brain capacity, Ronggui once again had another label in Xiaomei's heart.
