357. The Chosen Son
For the next two days, Qui-Gon Jinn and his party temporarily stayed at Anakin's home, while Anakin began to think of ways to repair the Nubian T-12 hyperspace engine that he had picked up before.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Qui-Gon, I think I really can't repair that engine. There are too many parts damaged." Anakin said with some frustration during dinner.
"It's okay, Annie, you have done your best to help us." Padmé, the maid, smiled and stroked Anakin's smooth hair, "We will look elsewhere tomorrow."
Anakin's mother, Shmi Skywalker, a middle-aged woman who looked like she was in her 40s even though she was only in her early 30s, looked at Anakin lovingly, and then at Qui-Gon, still very cautious. He said: "If Annie doesn't have it here, it will be basically harder for scavengers in other places to find better things. Annie is very good, and the things he finds are always the best."
Qui-Gon asked Anakin kindly, "You always find the best, don't you?"
"Yes sir, I can always feel where the wreckage of the spacecraft is more complete." Anakin answered honestly, "So with Johnson's help, we can always dig out good things. In the past few Today, I also dug up a intact terminal chip! I used that chip to activate C-3PO, but it is not very convenient to move now. It will be fine after I complete its leg structure tomorrow."
Padmé, the maid, smiled and said, "Is C-3PO a robot you repaired yourself? And Johnson too?"
"Johnson doesn't count, because only his lower body was damaged, and his upper body is still intact. I just reinstalled four legs on him. C-3PO was indeed repaired by Johnson and I," Anakin said.
"My navigation droid R2-D2 and C-3PO get along well, it seems." Padmé said.
"If possible, I would like to take a look at the engine on your spacecraft. Maybe I can splice the parts of the two engines together so that it can be repaired," Anakin said.
"This is a good plan." Qui-Gon nodded.
After dinner, Qui-Gon Jinn stood alone on the balcony. He passed the blood sample he obtained while bandaging Anakin's bruises in the afternoon to Obi-Wan Kenobi, who was staying behind in the spacecraft, and whispered: "Check this for me. Take a blood sample, Obi-Wan. I think I have discovered a very magical boy... at least from what I can tell, the density of midi-chlorians in his body is astonishing."
Obi-Wan was silent for a while before an exclamation came, "Master! If there wasn't something wrong with the instrument... In the blood sample you sent, the density of midi-chlorians has exceeded 20,000!! This is already exceeded! The instrument has reached its limit!!"
Qui-Gon Jin's eyes became profound, "Maybe it's really possible..."
"Master, according to Master Yoda, if the density of midi-chlorians in a person's body exceeds 10,000, it can be said to be a rare genius. If it exceeds 15,000, it can basically be said to be a pure Force body! And this blood sample More than 20,000! I...I don’t know how to describe...what does this mean to us?"
"I'm not sure either." Qui-Gon Jinn shook his head.
The sound of footsteps was heard. Qui-Gon turned off the communication, looked back at Rock Johnson, who was walking towards him, and asked with a smile: "What are you doing? Johnson."
"Anakin picked me up from the ruins. If it weren't for him, maybe I would be thrown into the furnace like a piece of garbage and smelted into a metal block." Johnson said, "Although most of my database has been destroyed , but I know that protecting him is my mission, beyond all other instructions."
Qui-Gon nodded, "You are a very anthropomorphic robot, and your emotional system must be very advanced. Moreover, I am very happy that Anakin has a friend like you."
"I don't know where I came from, but seven days ago, a mercenary from Titan Security accidentally saw me. He came up to me and told me that I was their property and wanted to take me away, so I killed him. I can't leave Anakin." Johnson said, "These days you see the mercenaries of Titan Security patrolling around outside, that's why. So, I welded an extra helmet to my head and replaced my original one. Features covered.”
Under Johnson's rough helmet, a pair of red electronic eyes constantly adjusted the focus, observing Qui-Gon Jinn's every move, "But when we first met, you said that I was the bodyguard robot of the Fourth Group. The sensors can hear your muffled voice. Do you know my past?"
Qui-Gon Jinn looked at the sky, recalling the Fourth Group colonial group that was helpless after being attacked by three bounty hunter spaceships and could only ask him for help. He smiled bitterly and said: "The Fourth Group, I think, this is not What a good thing."
"Is this a criminal group?"
"No, they... are very aggressive. However, this is not important to you." Qui-Gon Jin turned back, looked at Johnson and said: "The path you are on now belongs to you. That’s the most important thing.”
"I think I understand what you mean."
"When the ship is repaired, I hope to take Anakin away."
"Anakin likes you, so as long as he agrees, I agree. He should leave this garbage dump and have a better life."
"I mean, I hope you and C-3PO can stay and take care of his mother. Unfortunately, our situation is not safe. With your mother's condition, taking her with you might harm her."
"Why?"
"Have you ever heard of the Jedi?" Qui-Gon asked suddenly.
"I've heard it, there are many rumors, good and bad. But Anakin believes that the Jedi are the guardians of the galaxy. They are invincible, destroy evil and uphold justice." Johnson said.
"I am a Jedi Knight, and Anakin also has the potential to become a Jedi Knight." Qui-Gon said.
"Should I be honored?"
"This is more of a duty, but Jedi knights cannot have too many emotional bonds, which will make them worry about gains and losses, and breed the dark side in fear. Therefore, if you become a Jedi knight, you need to stay away from your family." Qui-Gon Jinn said.
"I will respect Anakin's ideas. If he wants to become a Jedi Knight, I will take good care of his mother for him, together with C-3PO. As for the Fourth Group, I have nothing to do with it." Johnson said .
…
Meanwhile, Coruscant, the capital of the Galactic Republic.
Darth Sidious knelt down on one knee and said to the projection of Darth Plagueis in the communicator: "We have found the whereabouts of the Queen of the Naboo planet. She is on the Tatooine planet, and on her By his side, there are those two Jedi Knights guarding him. In this way, ordinary power cannot achieve the goal."
"Kill those two Jedi and bring the Queen of Naboo back to sign the agreement." Darth Plagueis said coldly.
"I will send my apprentice, Darth Maul, and hope that this time his performance will be recognized by you. But in this way, the existence of our Sith will be discovered by the Jedi Order." Darth Sidi Erth said.
"Hahahaha!" Plagueis laughed, "Then let them know! The time has come! It's time to reveal the existence of our Sith! The fear of the Jedi Order is the most important thing in our plan. Excellent conditions!”
