Jiang Fan's side was once again at a deadlock.
When the matter of finding someone originally went smoothly, God decided to set a hurdle for Jiang Fan.
Although life is not easy for most people, it is not bleak to a certain extent.
Until Jiang Fan followed the address and found a furniture factory, he immediately saw Fu Tang sitting on a chair polishing furniture on the second floor.
Fu Tang is thirty-four this year. He retired due to injury three years ago. His situation is better than others. At that time, his foot was injured in the explosion and was amputated from the ankle.
Although it had a certain impact on his life, he was clever and used a wooden stake to make the shape of a shoe and fixed it to his ankle with rubber and cloth.
This is the simple prosthesis he made for himself.
Every time he walked, he dragged this wooden shoe that weighed several kilograms. Over time, people in the furniture factory called him a shoe carpenter.
The shoe carpenter talks little, is serious about his work, and never smiles. People never take the initiative to joke with him, as if the emotion of his laughter has disappeared.
The shoe carpenter didn't interact much with other people in the furniture factory. He rented a small house nearby and brought his own meals every day.
His life seems to be very simple, he works, goes home, and goes to the city only once every few months to buy necessary necessities.
When Jiang Fan passed by, a few people happened to come out.
"The shoe carpenter is really good. His carpentry work is so good. There is nothing he can't do."
"Two days ago, the boss said that he wanted to increase the salary of the shoe carpenter, but it is said that the shoe carpenter refused. He said that the money he earned was enough."
"It's not enough money. Have you seen what he usually buys? He is only 34 and seems not to be married yet. I don't know what he thinks. He usually looks like an old man. Could it be that he is stimulated by something? "
"But he's a really good person. The work assigned to him is always completed early, but he doesn't get involved or rush others, unlike that old Sun."
"That's right. Old Sun just likes to be a bitch in front of the boss. It's a good thing he left, otherwise it would be really bad luck."
When Jiang Fan looked up in the direction of Fu Tang again, Fu Tang had already seen this unexpected visitor.
However, Fu Tang only glanced at Jiang Fan, and then continued to work on his own work.
Jiang Fan slowly went upstairs, while Fu Tangzheng dragged his heavy wooden shoes to the other side of the shelf, preparing to turn over the wooden board on the table.
Jiang Fan walked over and wanted to help, but Fu Tang stopped him with his eyes: "I will do it myself."
Jiang Fan stood aside and watched him planing the wood neatly.
Fu Tang had been busy for half an hour, and Jiang Fan just watched from the sidelines for half an hour.
It was so quiet here that it was as if Fu Tang had forgotten Jiang Fan's existence.
Until people from other factories came over and asked Jiang Fan: "Are you a friend of the shoe carpenter? I see you have been standing there for a long time."
Jiang Fan said: "Not really a friend, I just have something to do with him."
The man walked up to Fu Tang again and said, "Shoe carpenter, don't be busy when someone comes. A few words with your friends won't delay the progress."
Fu Tang put the tool in his hand, glanced at Jiang Fan, and took Jiang Fan to a large booth on the second floor.
This is where they divide materials, and there happened to be no one there today.
Fu Tang had a sharp eye and went straight to the point: "Are you a soldier? What do you want from me?"
Jiang Fan said: "Let me introduce myself. I am a special soldier of the 9th Squadron of the Ace Force. My name is Jiang Fan. I came to see you today. Actually, I want to tell you that the army's intelligent prosthetic limb project has been completed and I want to make you a prosthetic limb." .”
Fu Tang kept staring at Jiang Fan's face. Fu Tang's eyes were like hooks, wedged on Jiang Fan's face.
Fu Tang said expressionlessly: "Are you done? You can go now, I don't have to."
Jiang Fan's first reaction was, is he like Li Xuesong again? Is there any misunderstanding?
Seeing Fu Tang preparing to leave, Jiang Fan hurriedly stood in front of him and said, "I'm not sure if there is any misunderstanding. Can I ask the reason?"
Fu Tang said: "There is no misunderstanding. The reason is that I am living a good life now and don't want to go back. Is that enough?"
Fu Tang's eyebrows came together slightly, looking unhappy.
Jiang Fan said: "I misunderstood. I don't need you to go back. I just want to install a prosthetic limb for you. I have been in the battlefield countless times for the country, and I lost one foot the most. What the country can do now is to give you back a foot." A healthy life.”
Fu Tang's expression remained unchanged: "One and two are like this, no need, it's meaningless."
Then, he left Jiang Fan and went back alone.
Fu Tang's attitude made Jiang Fan confused. He felt that he had no reason to be angry, but he was full of anger.
Jiang Fan wondered if he had missed something.
He hurriedly called Shi Wenyuan. Shi Wenyuan sighed and said, "I only know that before, about two years ago, someone from the original prosthetic research and development room looked for him, and he came back for a while."
Jiang Fan thought to himself: "Are you here to help them conduct experiments?"
Jiang Fan called Jiang Qiuyi again and called Jiang Qiuyi twice in a row but failed to get through.
In desperation, Jiang Fanzhi called Yang Ze: "Yang Ze, I have something to ask the people in the office next door. Do you have their contact information?"
There happened to be three people who came to help from the office next door, and Yang Ze directly handed the phone to one of them.
After the call, he asked anxiously: "Hey, Team Leader Jiang, what do you want to see me for?"
Jiang Fan got straight to the point: "Do you know Fu Tang?"
The other party hurriedly said: "I know, Fu Tang was our experimental subject at that time, and he also came over to help us with research for a period of time."
Jiang Fan asked: "What specific research was it? How was the progress at that time? Why didn't it stop at the later stage?"
Jiang Fan's questions were like a barrage of questions, one after another.
The other party whispered: "I told him that he was an experimental subject and there were certain risks. He also knew it, but the later effect was not ideal. In order to make the connection more suitable, we also implanted two contact plates in his calf. That thing was not very stable and put a certain burden on his calf.”
"The subsequent versions tested on him did not work satisfactorily, so he left."
Jiang Fan asked in a deep voice: "After the contact plate is removed, will it still have any impact on the body?"
This time there was a long silence from the other party.
"Actually, the contact plate was not removed because I thought I might ask him for experiments in the future, so I made a suggestion to him and asked if I could not remove it, and he agreed."
Anger suddenly rose in Jiang Fan's chest. Isn't this treating people like trash?
Call him if you need him, kick him away if he doesn't.
Jiang Fan suppressed his roar and asked in a gloomy tone: "Then why didn't you find him later?" (End of Chapter)
