"My name is Senju," the three introduced themselves simultaneously, then Yuri and Chito formed a heart shape together, "and together they form—"
However, Qianhu ignored her, "The success you're talking about, could it be...?"
“That’s the one,” she said, looking up at the plane flying into the distance.
"It really is that plane," Qianhu said, though he had already guessed it, he was still somewhat surprised.
“I made it myself,” she explained to the three of them, but they were still surprised. “I made it myself!”
"Can you help us fix the car?" Qianhu asked anxiously.
"It should be possible," the other person said, then added in a low voice, "I'm lucky to be able to run into anyone these days."
The other party followed the three men to the vicinity of the vehicle, and after taking a look, said with certainty, "Oh, I see. The tracked vehicle is broken. But with this, it should be able to be repaired."
"Oh, really?" Qianhu was pleasantly surprised, but the other person looked at the pile of things around them and sighed, "With so much stuff, no wonder it broke."
“No, no, no, these are what Senju is carrying,” Yuri complained, and then Senju packed up the car and a bunch of other things around it, “and we’re carrying them like this.”
"Wow, that startled me again. How did you do that?" The other person's previously calm face showed a look of shock, but it quickly returned to normal. "Ahem, I can help you fix the car, but in exchange, I have some things I'd like your help with."
“Okay,” Qianhu agreed, and the three of them followed her forward. After walking for a while, they arrived at the outside of the steel forest, where there was a wide platform.
"Hey, where are we going?" Yuri looked around and found that there were no buildings.
“We’re almost there,” the other person said, stopping in front of a metal cabinet. “Move a little closer.”
"Speaking of which, I haven't asked your name yet."
"Mine?" After the other person fiddled with something inside the cabinet for a while, the ground suddenly shook and then slowly sank. "Ishii."
Chapter 55 Wanting to Leave
“Oh,” as the ground descended, the four of them saw a huge underground building in front of them. Ishii explained, “This seems to be an old air force base. It has water and electricity, and there are mechanical parts everywhere. I’ve always lived here.”
"Living here? Are there bunk beds?" Yuri asked excitedly, but Ishii looked puzzled. "What's that?"
"What about the food shelf?" Yuri asked from behind.
“There’s no food on the shelves, but there’s a food production facility nearby,” Ishii said, walking forward. Yuri, following behind, looked excited. “...I see!”
“But it’s not moving now,” Ishii added, delivering the final blow. Yuri looked utterly disappointed.
"Is there any soil there?" Senju asked, but the other party replied indifferently, "Soil? It's all hydroponics there, but you might find some sand and gravel."
Then she described the current situation here, saying, "They say there's water and electricity."
However, the water and electricity are almost completely cut off; at this rate, it's only a matter of time before they're all cut off.
“Really? Electricity and water? We’ll find a way,” Senju said from behind, but Ishii was unconvinced. “Even if we do, food is a big problem.”
"Is that so?" Senju fell silent for a moment, and then Chito asked her the question that had been bothering her, "Excuse me, is it alright to leave that plane that flew away unattended?"
"Oh, that's just a prototype. The real thing is right here," she said, then turned on a switch on the wall, and rows of lights immediately illuminated the dimly lit room.
“It’s this,” Ishii said, pointing to an airplane next to him. It had a straight and slender fuselage, long wings on both sides, a four-winged propeller at the front of the fuselage, and a tall pulley support below. “I want you to help me finish this. In exchange, I will help you fix cars.”
"Wow, that's amazing," Chito exclaimed in amazement. Senju also examined the plane, calculating how much experience he would need to repair it in one go.
"And then?" Yuri was still a little confused. "What do we do after this is done?"
"After I'm done, I'll take this plane and leave this city," Ishii said somewhat absentmindedly, then looked at Senju, "Where's that car now?"
"Is it okay to put it here?" Qian pointed to the empty space next to him, and after receiving an affirmative answer, he put the car aside.
Seeing the car appear, she was still somewhat surprised. "How did they manage to do that? Is it some kind of ancient technology? It's so convenient!"
"It is indeed very convenient. I'm not sure if it's ancient technology, but I now have many abilities, such as identifying, repairing, and making food, just like magic," Senju explained.
"Really? Magic? That's true..." Ishii glanced at the three of them, then began repairing the car. After searching through the surrounding parts, they found the right parts and finally fixed the car.
After the car was repaired, Senju demonstrated his skills by taking out an anvil and repairing the car's durability. Looking at the brand-new car, Senju was excited and went to try driving it.
"It's all right, it's all right," Chito excitedly hugged the car, which looked perfectly fine. "It's fixed! That's wonderful! I've been given a second chance at life!"
"Hey, Chito, Ishii said he'd lend us the bathroom!" Just as Chito was stroking his beloved car, Yuri excitedly ran over from the side.
"Really?" Chito was also excited, then saw Ishii nod at him and say, "I have some things to say to this young man. You two go take a shower first. It's late today. You'll start work tomorrow."
"Oh, time for a bath!" the two cheered and ran off. Yuri already knew where the bathroom was.
After a moment of silence, the two who remained behind walked ahead and said, "Come with me."
The two entered a room with a bed, a table, a cabinet, and many airplane blueprints on the wall. After Ishii sat down in a chair, he looked at Senju with a scrutinizing gaze and said, "Who exactly are you? What you just did was something that ancient people couldn't have done with their technology."
"Ancient people? All I know is that I am from another world, and I don't know where I got this ability."
"A person from another world? Would you like to leave behind a descendant? Maybe he'll have your abilities too," Ishii said with a smile as he looked at Senju.
"Hehe," Senju felt awkward and didn't know what to say, then Ishii chuckled, "Just kidding, the important thing now is the plane."
"Airplanes? I have airplanes here too, they're from my collection, but they're all broken," Senju quickly changed the subject, and Ishii became interested as well.
"Oh. What kind of plane is it?"
"The super-large bombers and some helicopters, I originally wanted to repair them, but I still lack some experience," Thousand Hands sighed as he looked at his thirteen experience points.
"experience?"
"I get this energy from crafting, fishing, and killing monsters," Thousand Hands explained, then sighed, "It's a pity there are no monsters here, otherwise it could have been repaired long ago."
"Monsters? Where are they usually found?"
“I haven’t seen anything since I came here. My only hope now is hell, but I’m still missing a flint,” Senju told her as if he were telling her a story.
"Hell, huh? Well, this place will become hell sooner or later. I'll figure something out, Flint, but you have to help me fix the plane too," Ishii said, then lay down on the table and started writing. After a while, he took out a few blocks that looked like food and put them aside to cook.
"Hmm?" Senju felt like she had just remembered something. "Food, food, ah! I remember now."
"What did you remember?"
"I just remembered that I can start farming now. Ishii, could you take me outside for a bit?" Senju looked at Ishii eagerly.
"Sure, but it's nighttime outside, there's nothing here."
"None of that matters, as long as I have a spacious flat area, then I can produce some food."
"Really? Then come with me."
Ishii led Senju outside. Although it was warm during the day, at night, looking at the starry sky still felt...
A chill ran through the air.
Senju built a farmland next to the entrance, prepared it, planted it with wheat, and then placed a ring of torches around it.
Ishii was quite surprised to see these things. After observing them carefully, he muttered to himself, "I'm even more interested in you now. Just how far can you go?"
Chapter Fifty-Six: The City That Will Eventually Die
"What are these plants? Will they be okay in the outside environment?"
"These are special wheat varieties. They only need light, soil, and water, and they can mature in just one day, after which they can be used to make bread."
"It's so simple. If only food production were this simple and quick."
"Hmm, but it took me a long time to gather all the materials. If we were on land now, rebuilding an amusement park would be so easy."
"Oh, is that so?" Ishii regained his calm expression, but what he was really thinking was anyone's guess. "Is everything done? Let's go back."
“There’s one last thing,” Senju said, placing a few clods of soil on the side and planting a spruce tree. “That’s all. Let’s go back.”
After gazing intently at the field below, Ishii led Senju back to their base.
While the two were talking, Chito and Yuri had already started taking a bath. The two, who hadn't taken a hot bath in a long time, were very happy.
"There's hot water and a shower!" Yuri excitedly ran around, while Chito sat in the bathtub full of hot water.
After a while, Yuri also crawled in, and the two of them let out a long, comfortable sigh.
“Ishii is such a kind person, he even lent us his bathroom,” Yuri said happily.
"Yes."
"And Jinze, he's a good person too, the one with the map."
“That’s true, but not everyone in the world is good,” Chito tried to make Yuri understand, but Yuri immediately retorted, “But, isn’t there a saying that humans are creatures that help each other, like the Senju and us?”
"You didn't even come to help me when I was fixing the car, and you still have the nerve to say that," Chito still harbored resentment towards Yuri, while Yuri leaned in and laughed, "Hehehe, to be honest, a hot bath is always a good thing, no matter what."
“You’re right,” the two of them lazily soaked in the hot bath. After a while, they came out and put on the clothes that Ishii had prepared for them, even though the two clothes were a bit too big.
Once Ishii got absorbed in his research, he stopped paying attention to Senju. Senju was a little embarrassed, but he calmed down after a while, took out his furnace, and started grilling fish.
He had caught quite a few fish these days, but hadn't processed them yet. Now that the waste could be used instead of wood and coal, Senju wanted to take the opportunity to process them and give them as a gift.
After stuffing the fish and fuel into the container, Senju ignored it and took out an enchanted book to read. However, the text inside was unusually strange, so Senju just treated it as a strange pattern to pass the time.
Just as Senju was getting bored, Yuri's voice came from outside, "Ishii, thank you for lending us the bathroom."
Then the two entered the house. The clothes they were wearing were probably Ishii's, and they were a bit too big. It was unclear what they were wearing underneath. Overall, they looked like children dressed in adult clothes.
"Oh, you've come at the right time," Ishii said, taking a few white, blocky objects from a pot and distributing them to everyone. "Here, one for each of you."
"What is this?" Qianhu asked, somewhat puzzled.
"This is taro. It seems that it was originally ground into powder and used as a staple food, but it can also be cooked and eaten directly."
"Taro?" Senju looked at the thing in his hand speechlessly. It seemed that the taro had evolved to be quite delicious.
The three of them sat on the bed next to each other and started eating. After taking a bite, Senju felt a familiar taste. He used to love eating taro, and this soft and fragrant taste captivated him.
"Delicious," Chito also took a bite and found it very good, as did Yuri.
"The quantity is small, but it's very nutritious. After eating this, we can start working hard tomorrow." Ishii was happy to see everyone enjoying their meal; it had been so long since she'd seen anyone.
While eating, Chito looked around and asked, "Does Ishii live here?"
"Yes."
"Hey, Ishii, how did you come up with the idea of building an airplane? Even with all the equipment, no one would think of building an airplane by themselves," Yuri said, somewhat puzzled by Ishii's actions.
“Although the equipment here is complete, the most important reason,” Ishii thought for a moment, “I think it’s still that.”
"that?"
"It's recorded."
"Records, what are records?"
