Vicious male counterpart isn’t competing anymore [Rebirth]

Chapter 144.1 Advanced Mimetic Mech

Editor: Jodi

There was an old saying, ‘No desires made one fearless’. Yan Hao had always understood the meaning of this phrase, but it wasn’t until just now that he really embodied it, moreover he kind of liked the him of just now. His eyes sparkled as if he had glimpsed a brand-new version of himself.

And Sheng Heng, looking at Yan Hao at this moment, felt as if he was seeing a long-lost pearl that had finally shed its last speck of dust, causing it to shine brilliantly in the sunlight. The hovercar continued on its way and soon arrived at the entrance of the Research Institute. Baby Bug had been waiting at the entrance of the Research Institute for about ten minutes, hence the moment the hovercar stopped, he walked over proactively.

“Little junior brother, quick let me see if you’re missing any arms or legs.” Baby Bug examined Yan Hao from head to toe exaggeratedly.

“Sixth Senior Brother, it’s my brain that’s injured, not my arms or legs.” Yan Hao told him helplessly.

“You still know that it’s your brain that’s injured? I think it’s your brain that has a problem that’s why you got kidnapped.” And saying this, Baby Bug poked his forehead with his finger fiercely.

The issue of Yan Hao being kidnapped by his own mother was well-known among the Senior Brothers at the Research Institute, and the reason why they knew about it was because they had all been present when Yan Hao had made the video call to Old Zhong. Originally, they had planned to show their concern for Yan Hao through the video call, however they ended up witnessing the heated argument between the two Masters, and normally, whenever the two of them started fighting, there would be no loser or winner, with the two of them being evenly matched, but this time Old Pang scored a partial victory thanks to this issue.

The issue in question being that when their little junior brother’s mother video called to ask for a leave of absence on his behalf, their Master had granted it happily.

In reality, this incident couldn’t be blamed entirely on their Master. After all, who could have anticipated that a child as delightful and likable as their little junior brother would be disliked by his own mother? That woman was definitely sick in the head.

Among all the Senior Brothers, Baby Bug had the closest relationship with Yan Hao, but this was the first time Yan Hao had been scolded by Baby Bug. However not only did he not feel sad, he was even a little happy.

“I won’t do it again in the future.” Yan Hao said obediently.

“It’s good that you know.” Baby Bug raised his hand to poke his forehead again when he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine and looking up, he saw Sheng Heng standing behind Yan Hao, looking at him with a ‘smiling’ expression.

Fuck, when did this kid learn to hide a dagger in his smile?

“Er that, you’ve already sent him here, so Sheng Heng you can go now.” Who asked you to glare at me? See if I don’t beat you pair of mandarin ducks apart.

“Senior.” Yan Hao looked at Sheng Heng with a hint of reluctance.

How could Sheng Heng not understand Baby Bug’s intentions? However he did need to return to the base as soon as possible, as the matter regarding the Phantom Dream Legion was something he had to talk to his father about in detail face to face.

“When the new school semester starts in another month, we’ll be able to see each other then.” Sheng Heng told him.

Then they spoke for a while longer, before finally, after a reminder from Old Zhong, Yan Hao followed Baby Bug into the Research Institute. Sheng Heng watched the two of them go in, and it was only after they were out of sight that he called for a hovercar then headed back to the port.

The moment Yan Hao entered the Research Institute, he received another round of warm greetings, with even Old Zhong not assigning him any tasks immediately, telling him to rest well for a few days, making it so that during the first three days, the moment he appeared within the scope of the lab area, his Senior Brothers would send him back to the dormitory with serious expressions, causing him to not know whether to laugh or cry. In the end, unable to take it anymore, he took the drawing design he had made in the dormitory and went to look for Old Zhong.

“What you’ve drawn is a circuit diagram of a mech?” Old Zhong asked after looking at the design drawing.

“Yes, Master. What do you think of this design?” Yan Hao asked with a look of hopeful anticipation on his face.

“Is this a new design by Old Pang?” Although Old Zhong was a top mech building master, he had a tacit division of labor with Old Pang when it came to Yan Hao’s education. He was mainly responsible for mech systems, while the specifics of building a Mech was under Old Pang’s tutelage, and this mech circuit diagram fell precisely under Old Pang’s teaching domain.

“No, this is my own design.” Yan Hao explained.

“Your own design?” Old Zhong thought about it for a moment then looked at the design drawing carefully for a while before saying, “Your design is much more streamlined compared to the existing mech circuit diagrams. However you’ve omitted wiring in many places where they should be, hence such a design won’t allow the mech to function. What are you thinking?”
