Steel Steam and Flame

The cigarette **** fell, carrying sparks, and a ring of red light was splashed on the ground, and finally all extinguished in the winter wind. Soon after, when a huge bronze clock was not far away, the hour hand was pointing to the four o'clock mark, and the vibration on the ground was visible. The surrounding large iron shed also made a "creaking" rubbing sound, and the wind seemed to be stronger.

"Hurry up, contact the station master personally, so we must hurry up and get ready!" A manager of the station, wearing a yellow safety hat, with a miner's lamp on it, looks like a contractor. He hadn't exercised for a long time, and his belly was about to burst through his thick quilted jacket. After only a few words, he started to gasp. He just got up from the bed, his eyes were dark circles, and he came when he was notified.

"The New Year is coming soon. The webmaster said it will be the assessment at the end of this year." The voice sounded loud, but it was actually very weak. "It is related to the final salary and bonus, so you have to work hard later. You are all here. Excellent staff!"

He said a few more words, until the sound of the siren that they had been immune to broke the wind from a distance, they stopped shouting.

A beam of light directly entered the station, with a heavy weight, illuminating most of the buildings of the station.

The people beside him now knew that the pit stop was a relisting, and couldn't help sighing. Relisting is the most difficult mechanical combination to maintain, not only is it huge, it is troublesome to climb up and down. It is also because of the high technological content, not lower than those of high-speed trains. Because it requires strong adaptability and stability. After each relisted vehicle is built, the minimum standard is that it can drive at medium speed in all weathers. Compared with other trains, in a thunderstorm or snowstorm, there is no other way than to stop there and wait for the weather to improve or to rescue.

The relisting is a monster thing called a land cruiser.

In Solda's eyes, the dark body appeared at this moment. At night and because of the lights, this rearrangement made Sodar feel a different kind of breath, heavier than other vehicles, and more like a black scale python that might wake up at any time.

The sharp friction continued, Sodar looked at the more than 30 familiar faces around him, thinking that these managements would really toss people. There are still many people in the day shift, but they are also called over now. Not only them, but also people from other departments seem to have come, but they weren't the ones who climbed up the list and repaired them. They should be the ones who helped move and repair the equipment. They used to do this by themselves.

Strange appearance, this is Sodar's first impression of climbing onto the rearrangement. There are many things in the shape of a square cone fortress, not only windshield, but also very poor craftsmanship from the point of view of the weld. No matter how hurry, this technique is too unskilled. In his eyes, this craft can only be regarded as a temporary apprentice. And looking in from the upper opening, it is a very thick barrel. He recognized this thing, it was a gun, and it must be very powerful.

"Does anyone dare to attack the relisting?" This was something he couldn't imagine, but he was also very curious. Take a few more glances.

"This is for work, please pay attention to the time!" Someone behind him suddenly spoke, his voice was cold, as if it were played by a duplicator. Sodar was frightened, and his body trembled. Turning to look at the side of the train, where I don't know when, stood a soldier with a face as cold as his voice. That face was white, maybe it was frozen like that, Sodar guessed.

"Good evening!" Sodar said hello with a smile, but the other party looked at him coldly and didn't reply.

It's weird, Sodar thought. But muttering in his heart, he still picked up the tools and started cutting these things. The speed is very fast, in order not to damage the roof steel layer, this time the requirements are very strict. After the cutting is finished, the welding traces left on the car body must be cleaned up one by one by hand sanding, which is basically invisible.

"Let's start at five o'clock! Hurry up!" The chief manager used the loudspeaker while walking and shouting, and the sound once overwhelmed the cutting noise.

Sodar is a veteran, and in the entire maintenance department, whether it is seniority or craftsmanship, he ranks first. He quickly cut the first piece, summoned a few people, and threw all the bulky things down and relisted. Inside the fortress, the four heavy machine guns were completely exposed to the white light of the high-pressure mercury lamp, the bullet chains that were involved gave off a cold light, and the falling shells also made a crisp collision sound.

Several people felt a little horrified. They had seen firearms, but this was the first time the half-person tall guy saw it.

They wanted to dismantle, but a few soldiers had already come up and relisted and came to their side, saying that these jobs would be taken over by them later, and Sodal and the others would just cut and polish them.

The division of labor is clear, and Sodar and their operations proceeded quickly. Taking a look at the time from time to time, Sodal estimated that these things on the roof of the car, it seemed that it was not a problem to finish it half an hour earlier, if it was just cutting. Of course, there will be an overhaul of the relisting, which is the most troublesome thing. Complete inspection is impossible, and it usually takes a few days.

Only by examining the more important parts, Sodar knew very well.

"Here, here!" When Sodar was still working, he heard the voice of the manager holding the megaphone. Then there was a flattering shout, certainly not at Sodar. Sodar knows this.

"Sodar!" the man shouted.

"There must be no good." Sodar just wanted to take out a cigarette.

The administrator was followed by a soldier, and he did not wear a military rank. He walked steadily. This was all Sodar's impression of the soldier.

"That's it. The best maintenance veteran here is up to the level of a mechanic!" The administrator praised with a smile, but the soldier did not look at it at all.

"Hello!" With some temperature, "re-lay out the end side panel, there is a hole in the freezer. Although it has been patched, the air-conditioning is still leaking. Please go over and take a look. The materials are ready, It should be re-soldered." The soldier said his judgment, indicating that the thin-film-like thing he was carrying was an alloy sheet temporarily used to encapsulate things. Sodar recognized that it was a consumable used in the Empire to deal with damaged parts on the train. Moreover, in this station, there is only this standard system.

Sodar nodded, stopped working in his hands, did not say much, and when he was about to take his own tools and pass, the soldier came over and raised all of his hands. Sodar was grateful and surprised. These things were usually carried on his back, and they were still a bit heavy.

While surprised, Sodar followed the soldiers from the roof to the end of the car. I had already left the station, and I was exposed to the cold wind without any protection. The warmed body suddenly became cold, and Sodal shook his body. Under the leadership of the soldier's bright flashlight and the miner's lamp on his hat, he came to the end of the vehicle.

There is no noise here, only the sound of "whooping" in the ears of the cold wind. Sodar took a deep breath, and his chest felt colder. The surrounding area was dark and lonely. The first time I came outside the station in winter night, the distance was several hundred meters away, and the stations in the distance became much smaller. He was slightly frightened in his heart, but there were also the chief executive and the soldier around ~www.ltnovel.com~, so don't worry.

Sodar looked at the chief executive, his face was the same as him, as if he had eaten the carrion of a mouse. The column is also several meters high. When he was about to go down on the rope, the soldier on the side took out the portable communicator in his coat pocket.

When the soldier turned on the communicator to answer the call, there was no change in his face, he just said a few "OK" and then hung up.

Then the soldier looked up and looked at Sodar: "It's the side of this carriage. You still have half an hour, please hurry up."

After speaking, it seemed that something had happened over there, and he hurried back. The leader of the pipeline naturally followed behind, leaving Sodar alone standing there watching the two leave, blowing in the cold wind, and did not speak for a long time.

After getting out of the car, he moved his body first. Immediately, he took out the cigarette he was pregnant, and adjusted the brightness of the light to the maximum, observing the situation on the side panel of the car.

It has been blocked, and the material is obvious, that is, the steel plates on the fortresses he was still cutting just now. It was not welded, but a thin iron pillar was directly used as a steel nail, and a steel plate was firmly nailed to it. There is a steady stream of white mist squeezing out of the gaps that have never been sewn.

How much power does it take? Sodar looked at the traces, these thin iron pillars were clearly artificially knocked in.

He couldn't figure out what kind of person would have such a strange power. After a few puffs of cigarettes, he turned on the machine and began to carefully cut the steel plate from the side of the rearrangement.

It took some time to avoid destroying the black iron steel plate on the side of the rearrangement. Sodal was very careful. Soon afterwards, with a "clang", the nailed steel plate fell down and hit the concrete beside the rails. A nearly circular hole that can be drilled into the entire sturdy man appeared under the light of the lamp above him.
