Quick Transmigration: Why did you provoke him? He's love-struck!

Chapter 409 The Predator Trapping Plan (8)

"Are you kidding me?" Shen Rong was not convinced by her at all, but was even more devastated. "Those scientists who specialize in building spaceships need to undergo at least more than ten years of systematic study before they can do this job."

Without any prior experience, and relying solely on your own trial and error, you boast that you can repair a spaceship and leave this place within three to five years. Do you think that's possible?

"Whether it's possible or not, we'll only know after we try." Yan Zhen was not affected by her sarcastic remarks and doubts, and continued to assemble the parts on the ground.

"You have three choices now. First, go back to the red-light district and find an easy way out using the method I told you. Second, part ways with me and do whatever you want from now on."

Shen Rong's expression was indescribable as she pressed, "And what about third?"

“Third, listen to me and work with me,” Yan Zhen said. “Of course, you don’t have to help with the spaceship repair work. Once you’ve recovered from your injuries, you can go out every day to find supplies to support me, so I can devote more time and energy to the spaceship repair work. When the spaceship is successfully repaired and we leave here, I will take you with me.”

Looking at her confident demeanor, Shen Rong felt both annoyed and helpless.

After holding back for a while, she couldn't help but ask, "Where do you get the confidence that you can repair a derelict spaceship?"

"I believe that anything is possible with human effort." After stating his opinion, Yan Zhen ignored Shen Rong and said, "Move your leg a little, you're stepping on my parts."

"..."

Although Shen Rong neither understood nor was disappointed by her decision, she hesitated for a long time before deciding not to leave.

Yan Zhen spent two days assembling a simple rainwater collection filter, which, after some camouflage, was installed on top of the hull of the abandoned spaceship.

That evening, a heavy rain fell in Area C, and the collector filled an entire iron bucket with rainwater.

The next morning, Yan Zhen turned on the faucet connected to the bathroom. Although the water flowing out wasn't crystal clear, it was at least no longer murky, yellowish, or rusty.

She took off her clothes and took a nice, relaxing shower.

When she got really into it, she even started singing.

"Which should I use today, shower gel or scented soap?"

Towel, shower cap, ducky, the water temperature is just right.

Splash some water and make some bubbles. Today is a wonderful day.

Sing loudly, wiggle your waist, I love taking a bath!

Shen Rong sat guarding her at the cabin door, holding a gun. Listening to the singing coming from the bathroom, she rolled her eyes in exasperation.

"childish!!!"

After taking a shower, Yan Zhen came out while drying her hair. She saw Shen Rong sitting at the cabin door with a resentful look on her face. She found it amusing and casually tossed a towel over Shen Rong's head.

Shen Rong was already annoyed, and with a wet towel covering her face, she angrily ripped it off. Just as she was about to curse, Yan Zhen spoke first: "Go take a shower."

Shen Rong: "...I'm not going."

"You smell awful," Yan Zhen said with disdain. "There's still half a can of water left, I specially saved it for you. Don't be ungrateful, or your wound will get infected if you keep covering it."

Shen Rong still kept a straight face and refused to move.

Yan Zhen snatched the gun, dragged her up, and pushed her toward the bathroom: "If you don't wash yourself clean, you'll be sleeping outside tonight."

Shen Rong: "..."

She went into the bathroom with a reluctant expression.

Not long after, Shen Rong came out after taking a bath.

Her long hair was wet, and the makeup she had brought from the red-light district had been washed off, revealing a pretty face.

Yan Zhen sat on a broken airplane propeller outside the abandoned spaceship. She saw that Shen Rong had changed into camouflage pants and a military green vest, revealing her lean waist and strong shoulders. She waved to her and said, "Come here, there's a breeze here to dry your hair."

Shen Rong pulled out a pair of scissors from the box, quickly climbed onto the propeller, handed the scissors to Yan Zhen, and then turned her back to her, saying, "Help me cut my hair."

Yan Zhen took the scissors and began to cut Shen Rong's hair.

Last night's heavy rain washed away all the dust in the air, making the air unusually clean and fresh. In addition, the humans and aliens in the metal forest rarely come out during the day, and the surroundings are so quiet that only the whistling sound of the wind can be heard.

Yan Zhen felt quite comfortable at this moment.

After cutting Shen Rong's hair, she also ended up with a short buzz cut.

Shen Rong seemed a little uncomfortable, touched her hair, and looked at Yan Zhen's round head: "You're like a chestnut."

Yan Zhen asked, "And what about you?"

"I am like a kiwi."

After saying that, the two looked at each other and burst out laughing.

With that smile, the two seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding.

After enjoying the wind on the propeller for half an hour, Yan Zhen returned to the cabin and began rummaging through the things he had brought back from the garbage dump.

After fiddling around, she pulled out a watch whose dial was no longer working.

Yan Zhen studied it for a while, then called Shen Rong over: "Have you seen this before?"

Shen Rong, with a vial of nutrient solution in her mouth, glanced at her watch: "Smartwatch."

After saying that, she added, "It's a children's model, or an outdated one. Even a slave planet like K743 doesn't use such low-end smart products anymore."

Yan Zhen: "...You talk too much."

After she finished speaking, she bent down and began to disassemble the watch.

Upon opening the back of the watch, she discovered that it wasn't broken; only one of the parts was misaligned.

After spending some time resetting the parts, the watch quickly restarted, displaying a floating screen.

Yan Zhen tapped and swiped on the floating screen, muttering to himself, "Solar charging, interstellar navigation system is working perfectly, camera is fine, photo album... wow, the memory capacity is huge!"

The watch's original owner must have been a child, as there weren't many photos in the album. Apart from the seemingly ordinary living conditions, the remaining photos showed a fluffy mechanical dog.

Yan Zhen looked at the remaining memory displayed on the floating screen, pondered for a moment, put the watch on her wrist, took the guard uniform and changed while saying, "I'm going out for a bit."

Shen Rong had just finished drinking the nutrient solution when she asked, "Shall we go find supplies? I'll go too."

"No, I'm going to the library."

Shen Rong was taken aback and said, "The library in N613 should have been destroyed."

Yan Zhen tapped his watch: "In order to preserve interstellar civilization, every planet will set up an AI library in its library. Even if the planet disintegrates, the AI ​​library will not disappear. I'll go to the library and try my luck to see if I can use my watch to copy the information about spaceships from the AI ​​library."

Upon learning that they weren't going to find supplies, Shen Rong hesitated.

"You don't need to come with me. Just keep an eye on the house." Yan Zhen put on his guard uniform and slipped on the military boots, both of which were for the left foot.

After thinking for a moment, he added, "I don't know how big the AI ​​library is, and I don't know how long the copying will take. If it's not finished copying, I might have to stay out all night. Don't worry about me."

"Okay." Shen Rong took three or four vials of nutrient solution and stuffed them into her bag. "Be careful."
