"Sister, you're asking me to sacrifice myself."
"Little girl, come on. I'm obviously interested too. If I wasn't so busy, I'd also want to test him. Just treat it as a game. This is also the reason why you're here. You're not as free as me at home. Don't worry, I'll protect you if anything happens … Well, little girl, you're trying to trick me!"
Ma Xiaoru stuck out her tongue, revealing a bit of the naughty nature of a witch, "Then I'll thank you in advance, Big Sister. But how can I make him obediently submit?"
"Come closer and listen to this Heavenly Master's words!" There was nothing that could stop Samantha. Wang Tong would never be able to escape from the palm of the Maitreya Buddha!
After the class, Wang Tong went to a shop selling home robots. The lady at the counter smiled warmly as soon as she saw Wang Tong. "What can I do for you, sir? We have all kinds of AI robots here!"
"It's like this, can you repair robots here?"
"Maintenance? Of course, I can. What model is your robot?"
Wang Tong took out Charcoal's heart from the Space Crystal and asked, "It's a C-type. It's a bit old, and all that's left is a memory box. Can it be recovered?"
The receptionist looked troubled. "I'm sorry, sir. This model of robot is no longer on sale. If it's just a simple replacement, I can still help you. However, if you want a complete C-model, I'm afraid it'll be very troublesome and expensive. Would you like to consider switching to a more powerful model?"
"How much does it cost?" Wang Tong didn't need a household robot at all.
"You know, it's very troublesome to clear the warehouse, especially this kind of old robot that hasn't been used for four to five years. The degree of damage is too serious, and the labor costs and so on are roughly estimated to be more than 200,000 yuan. It's better to buy a new model."
A better model of the E-series would only cost tens of thousands of RMB. Of course, the price would skyrocket if Wang Tong needed more detailed functions. Nevertheless, it was still an astronomical figure to Wang Tong.
Wang Tong had no choice but to give up for the time being. As he walked out of the robot store, Wang Tong sighed. He realized that both humans and robots had to pay a hefty price to be resurrected.
It seemed like Charcoal would have to suffer for a while. Wang Tong put the black box back into the Space Crystal and boarded the Cityscape Express. He looked at the sky full of flying cars and decided to start planning for his future. Apart from studying, he would also need to plan for his livelihood. However, all of these would have to wait until the end of the monthly examinations.
Wang Tong didn't return to school right away. Instead, he wandered around the area to see if there were any jobs nearby that could earn him some money. There were still some part-time jobs available for students, but he needed to make sure that his schedule was right.
It was already night time when I got back to school. I suddenly found the lights in my room … Thief?
Why would a pauper like him steal?
Wang Tong was startled when he saw the person inside. It was Ma Xiaoru. What was she doing here?
Ma Xiaoru stood up as soon as she saw Wang Tong, "One hour and five minutes, I didn't know it was so painful to wait for someone. I'm sorry, it's not convenient to wait outside, so I asked the manager to open the door."
"It's fine, sit anywhere you like. Student Ma, what brings you here?"
Wang Tong asked.
"Just call me Ma Xiaoru. The principal asked me to tutor you, so that you won't complain if you get eliminated." Ma Xiaoru said with a sly smile.
"Four days until the final exams …" Wang Tong was speechless. Was she trying to get him out of school?
"Wang Tong, you don't seem like someone who gives up easily." Ma Xiaoru said.
"I don't think that's a good idea …" Wang Tong hesitated.
"What's wrong with that? Wang Tong, you shouldn't be such a sentimental person. Ma Xiaoru will look down on you if you keep this up."
Wang Tong shrugged and said, "I'm fine with it. Thank you so much for your help. There are a lot of questions that are giving me headaches."
"Let's learn from each other. I also have some questions that I don't understand."
Wang Tong knew that there was more to it than meets the eye, but he still wanted to take advantage of the free tutoring that was offered to him.
Wang Tong listed out the questions that he had encountered in the past few days, hoping that Ma Xiaoru would be able to explain them to him. However, he had underestimated Ma Xiaoru. The princess of FFC had her own private tutor, so even if she was practicing martial arts, she would still be able to learn everything. These questions might be difficult for Wang Tong, but it was a piece of cake for someone who knew martial arts. Not to mention that Ma Xiaoru's voice was so sweet that she was able to solve all of his problems easily.
Wang Tong's intelligence had improved tremendously after the activation of his eighth brain region. The things that he had learned in the beginning were easy, and he could understand them as soon as someone asked him to watch them.
However, Wang Tong's questions were not simple. Wang Tong thought that Ma Xiaoru would find an excuse to leave if he asked a few questions, but to his surprise, Ma Xiaoru patiently answered all of his questions one by one.
Two hours had passed since Wang Tong had answered all of his questions. He had to admit that time passed quickly when he was spending time with a pretty lady.
Ma Xiaoru took a deep breath and smiled, "Anything else? I didn't know that you weren't stupid at all."
"Why? Do I look like an idiot?"
"That's not it. You're just trying to give people an illusion."
Wang Tong poured a glass of water for Ma Xiaoru and sat opposite her, "Go ahead, what do you want to know?"
Ma Xiaoru was startled, "What do you want to know?"
"Haha, the principal wouldn't ask for nothing. She must have a reason for inviting you here. You'll be embarrassed if you don't tell her."
Ma Xiaoru wasn't embarrassed after being exposed, "She watched your performance in the anatomy class, and she wants to know how you did it. Actually, I'm curious myself."
Ma Xiaoru was honest. Since Wang Tong had already guessed it, there was no point in hiding anymore.
"It's nothing. People can learn anything under certain circumstances. When I was on Norton, I had to deal with Zergs' corpses all the time, and I needed raw materials for the nutrient machine …" Wang Tong didn't finish his sentence, he was afraid that Ma Xiaoru would be disgusted. After all, not everyone could endure that kind of thing. Even though it had been processed, it was still horrifying to eat it.
"You're amazing!" Ma Xiaoru exclaimed, "If it were me, I wouldn't be able to survive in that kind of environment. But what tactics are you practicing? It seems to be very powerful. You don't have to tell me, the principal just wants to know how good you are. It'll be very helpful for you to stay in the academy."
Ma Xiaoru was indeed a comfortable girl, her sincerity was infectious. Wang Tong didn't hide it, he knew that he would have to let her know sooner or later. If Ma Xiaoru, who was practicing the Tactics of the Enchantress, couldn't see through his disguise, then he would be relieved in the future.
(Just treat it as a way to increase my APM, hehe)
