Chapter 358: A Fateful Encounter

356 , Fate Encounter

Outer Rim of the Milky Way, Planet Tatooine, Port of Mos Espa.

Qui-Gon-Jin left Obi-Wan Kenobi to guard the spaceship, and then he took the maid beside the Queen who called herself Padmé, and the Gungan J-Ja-Bink they rescued on the planet Naboo They walked together on the narrow street, and everyone around them glanced at them with malicious intent, especially Padmé, who was young and beautiful and attracted many vicious gazes.

Qui-Gon-Jin had to constantly use the Force to influence those around him, making them take their attention away from themselves and think about something else.

"This city is about to be demolished. If it were me, I'd rather live in a puddle." Jia-Ja-Binks looked at the surrounding ruins very curiously, "Oh, it's too hot here, I feel My tongue is going to melt."

"The city was destroyed because of a war between two Hutts, Jabba the Hutt and Gardullah the Hutt, and finally Jabba destroyed Gardullah's palace in Porto Mos Espa, sort of He has won, but he has not been able to catch Gardulla so far," said the maid Padmé.

"As a maid, you know this information very well." Qui Gang-Jin glanced at the maid.

"Planet Tatooine is not far from Planet Naboo, so I know these things are not surprising." Padmé replied with a smile.

"I see that many people here are selling the wreckage of the spaceship. Let's try our luck. Maybe we can find the hyperspace engine we want in the junkyard." Qui-Gon-Jin came to a local resident and waved his hand Said, "Tell me where is the biggest market?"

The resident originally had a fierce face, but when he was shaken by Qui-Gon-Jin's hand, he immediately became dazed under the influence of the original force, pointed in one direction and said: "Over there, many things that people pick up are sold there, and there are also Lots of garbage dealers who buy garbage."

Qui-Gon-Jin nodded, and they walked towards the junk market.

In that garbage market, there are ragged scavengers everywhere, and there are many children among them. These children start to pick up garbage for a living when they are 8 or 9 years old, and because of their small size, they can get into some corners to pick up garbage. Garbage, so it can play a lot of roles.

Many garbage merchants also set up shops here. To ensure safety, most of them hired a few mercenaries. Although they were unintentional, the existence of these mercenaries did indeed maintain the minimum order here.

But they asked many junk dealers, none of them had the type of hyperspace engine they wanted.

In fact, this matter still has to be said to be a hole dug by the former king of Naboo, Ars-Veruna. He sought cooperation with Nubia Interstellar Drive Company, and Nubia Company is originally a manufacturer of high-end spaceships, so in this The odds of finding Nubian's hyperspace drive in the junkyard are indeed too low.

Just as they were asking around, a little boy with a hideous humanoid robot suddenly felt something, and turned his head to look this way. His eyes first fell on Qui-Gon-Jin, and then looked at him again. The maid Padmé came over and asked, "Are you from outside?"

Kui Gang Jin smiled kindly, knelt down and asked the little boy, "How do you know we came from outside? What's your name?"

"My name is Anakin, and I live in a garbage dump outside the city. Is this sister an angel? The retired pilot told me that only angels can be so beautiful, so you must be from outside." The little boy said seriously Said.

The maid Padme smiled happily when she heard the boy's innocent words, and he said to Anakin: "We did come from outside, but I'm not an angel. Our spaceship is malfunctioning and we need to find parts to save it." It has to be repaired, or you'll be stuck here."

"What parts do you need?" Anakin asked.

"Nubian T-14 hyperspace engine," Qui-Gon-Jinn replied.

Anakin thought for a while, and said: "This model cannot be found here, but I should be able to find a way. Why don't you come with me to my house. Oh yes, this is my partner, Robot Rock-Johnson! It's the one who's been protecting me."

"I suggest not to bring outsiders to our house casually, it is not safe." T-850 robot Johnson said.

Qui-Gon-Jin nodded and said: "Please rest assured, we are not here to cause trouble, as long as we can make our spaceship fly again, we will leave immediately. We will also pay."

"How much money do you have?" Johnson asked.

"There are about 20,000 Republic credits." Qui-Gon-Jin replied.

"Republic credits are not recognized in Tatooine, you need to use Upi Upi coins issued by the Hutts," Johnson said.

"Well Johnson, they need help, and we can indeed help them. They are not bad people, I know that." Anakin said.

Johnson didn't say much, just turned around and walked out of the city.

Kui Gang-Jin looked at Johnson's back and muttered to himself: "Although it has undergone many modifications, it can still be seen that it is the bodyguard robot of the fourth group... What does this indicate?"

"Master Qui-Gon, that little boy just now, I don't think he's a bad guy, he's very cute, I like him a lot." The maid Padmé came over and said to Qui-Gon-Jin.

"The Force has already told me his kindness inside, let's go. Be careful." Qui-Gon-Jin pulled up his hood to cover his face again, and followed Johnson and Anakin out of the city.

A group of people came to Anakin's house, and when they saw Johnson lifting the one or two-ton boulder door, Qui-Gon-Jin couldn't help but give him an extra look.

"I live with my mother, and there is also the protocol robot C-3PO that I am repairing here, but my mother has inconvenient legs and feet, so she has been resting in bed. I want to change her to an anti-gravity wheelchair, but these days Garbage dealer Chirucci has been absent." Anakin warmly introduced his family to everyone, then pointed to his room and said: "There is no Nubian T-14 hyperspace engine here, but I got it from a fallen ship before. A Nubian T-12 hyperspace engine was picked up on the ship, which can be used on your ship. But this engine is broken, and I have never had the parts to repair it."

The maid Padmé looked around with great interest. She found two sets of engines at the foot of the wall and asked, "What is this?"

"It's pod racing! My mom used to take me to the Boonta Yeez pod races when everything was fine and my dream was to be a racer, but then the war broke out and the race was ruined .” Anakin caressed the dusty pod car lonely, his eyes full of anticipation.

The maid Padmé looked at the pure eyes of the little boy, and her heart seemed to be touched. She held Anakin's rough little hand and said seriously: "You must be able to drive this pod racing car and gallop on the field. Definitely can!"

"Thank you miss, you are really kind and beautiful, just like the angel in the legend." Anakin showed an innocent smile, but his eyes were full of firmness.

On the other side, Qui-Gon Jinn kept staring at Anakin with a serious expression.
