I must say, perhaps this City in the Sky has really grown too accustomed to peace, as there seems to be no sense of security anywhere.
Even these large doors protect against gentlemen, but not against scoundrels.
But this also indirectly indicates that life here is really good, with no worries about food and clothing, limitless energy, and naturally a very low crime rate.
Moreover, located more than 2000 meters high and protected by an anti-aircraft net covering 10,000 meters of sky… it’s absolutely an impregnable fortress, so naturally, not many people are concerned about security issues.
Could it be…
That this is also within Zhao Yingjun’s plan?
Is everything designed for his own convenience?
Lin Xian couldn’t be sure.
But at least based on his current experience, Rhine Sky City was much more relaxed than New Donghai City.
The spot he was in now was in the open courtyard of the museum.
Aside from the greenery and some artistic architecture, there wasn’t anything valuable.
If he wanted to check out the history of Rhine Sky City, and also get into Zhao Yingjun’s personal exhibit, he would have to find a way to enter the indoor exhibition hall.
Lin Xian walked to the long staircase and started climbing upwards.

The museum was deserted and silent at night, walking on these long, upward-sloping stairs gave a mysterious sense of temporal weight.
Because he felt that he didn’t belong here, yet he was wandering through the history of this city.
What would be inside the exhibition hall?
And what about inside Zhao Yingjun’s personal exhibit?
Lin Xian couldn’t wait any longer.
However.
“Ah…
another electronic door.”
Lin Xian silently looked at the large doors of the exhibition hall.
Just like the museum’s open-air entrance and the doors beneath the statue of Zhao Yingjun, they were all such solid steel doors that there was no possibility of cracking them.
What should he do?
This was an indoor hall, with no possibility of scaling the walls.
“Is there a carelessly left unlocked window that I can climb through?
If I knew earlier, I would’ve asked Big Face Cat for his C4 explosives.”
Lin Xian looked around for a long time but didn’t find a window that he could open; even due to the height, there were few windows he could reach.
“What to do now…” Lin Xian scratched his head.
Click!
A familiar sound of a clasp!
Lin Xian looked at his ankle in surprise; it was the familiar rusted clasp.
“Garbage!
Garbage!
Found garbage!”
As he turned his head…
The persistence was inescapable…
Still in the familiar garbage can design, the familiar gleam of green eyes, the familiar garbage can robot VV!
“Big brother…”
This time, Lin Xian was truly speechless.
How persistent was this thing with his trash, pursuing him from Zhao Yingjun’s statue to the museum?
Lin Xian suddenly thought of Cameron’s directed science fiction movie “Terminator 2”; this garbage can’s relentless pursuit was comparable to that of the T1000 liquid metal robot.
“Eh?
That’s not right?”
Lin Xian narrowed his eyes, looking at the dilapidated robot that had firmly locked onto his ankle and kept calling him garbage.
Something was off…
In his last dream, he had noticed something odd about this robot—
The high platform and plaza surrounding Zhao Yingjun’s statue were separated by a massive steel electronic door, completely sealed off.
Hence, to enter the plaza, Lin Xian and the others had to climb over the wall.
But!
Last time in his dream, after Lin Xian threw the garbage can robot off the high platform, it climbed back up after a short while.
That was strange.
How did it get back up?
The only passage was that steel electronic door.
Could it be capable of opening that electronic door?
At the time, Lin Xian hadn’t thought much of it, only suspecting there might be other smaller passages for these garbage robots.
But now.
The museum’s surrounding wall was completely sealed too, also with a steel electronic door separating inside from outside, and this dimwitted robot had managed to follow here unimpeded.
It couldn’t have scaled the wall, so the only way it could’ve come into the museum was to open the steel electronic door!
“Could it be…”
Suddenly, Lin Xian had an epiphany, looking down at the dimwitted robot that had locked onto his ankle.
Suddenly.
He even began to see the rust-covered robot as somewhat clear-eyed and handsome.
He forcibly opened the clasp holding his ankle, picked up the dimwitted robot, and looked into its ‘eyes’:
“Could you be a…”
“[Door-Opening Robot]?”
The more Lin Xian thought about it, the more it seemed plausible.
Otherwise, these strange situations were inexplicable, unless the robot had high-level access, capable of opening all electronic doors in the City in the Sky!
Considering it was the only “living thing” around Zhao Yingjun’s statue…
considering everything Zhao Yingjun meticulously planned was interconnected…
This junk robot could very well be a key.

“Let’s give it a try and see.”
Lin Xian, holding the garbage can robot, hurried towards the doors of the museum exhibition hall.
He had just placed the robot on the ground…
Click!
The familiar mechanical clasp locked onto his ankle.
“Garbage!
Garbage!
Found garbage!”
But then!
Beep beep!
Squeak———
After a light mechanical noise, the steel electronic door that had been tightly shut split open down the middle, slowly sliding apart!
Simultaneously, the lights inside the exhibition hall turned on in an orderly fashion like a welcoming bow, making the whole hall instantly bright, beckoning Lin Xian, this distinguished guest, to enter.
“Oh my…”
Lin Xian had never enjoyed such treatment before.
He touched the lid of the garbage can:
“So you really are a door-opening robot, the key Zhao Yingjun left for me!”
At this moment.
Lin Xian finally understood Zhao Yingjun’s meticulous care.
It was incredibly detailed, like a nanny setting things up, leaving himself an invincible authorization key, capable of opening any electronic door in the entire Sky City.
