Bai Fan looked at Lin Tao and others with a smile.

"Senior Brother?" Lin Tao frowned secretly.

Du Ruizhi was distracted and didn't hear what Bai Fan said.

Du Ruiming seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Bai Fan in surprise: "Bai Fan, are you Master Gu Lei's..."

Before Du Ruiming could finish his words, Bai Fan had already nodded with a smile.

So that's how it is. Seeing Bai Fan's expression, Lin Tao understood in his heart that Bai Fan must have been taught by Master Gu Lei for a period of time. The three of them were recommended by Master Gu Lei to enter the First Mecha Academy, and they can be considered as Master Gu Lei's disciples. In this way, Bai Fan is the senior brother of the three.

However, even though he understood it, Lin Tao still couldn't say it out loud.

Although they were recommended by Master Gu Lei, the two of them were just helping each other. Lin Tao not only asked Zheng Tuo to help them leave Mingyuan Star, but also gave them a paper material on the parts module, so they owed each other nothing.

"Eh? You don't want to?" Seeing Lin Tao's expression, Bai Fan couldn't help but chuckle again and said, "It won't be difficult for you to call me Senior Brother. Besides, as long as you call me Senior Brother, I will take you to a good place later."

"What place?" After coming back to his senses, Du Ruizhi blushed when he heard the word 'a good place'. He immediately rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "Bai Fan, please don't lead my brother astray."

"Hmm?" Bai Fan was startled. After seeing her expression, he couldn't help but laugh and shook his head: "What are you thinking? Lin Tao and Du Ruiming are from the Mecha Maintenance Department. They can naturally have some fun there. However, it's hard to say for you, because people from your Mecha Design Department rarely go there."

"Hmm?" Lin Tao raised his eyebrows.

Du Ruizhi finally realized what was going on. Her face flushed and she spat, "You just thought of somewhere else." Although she said that, she was also very curious: "What exactly is that place?"

"Chip racing." Bai Fan rubbed his hands.

Chip racing? Du Ruizhi heard the words, and the curiosity in his eyes immediately disappeared, revealing a sullen look.

Du Ruiming became excited instantly.

When Lin Tao heard this, his eyes lit up.

Chip racing is also popular in Lin Tao's later generations. It is a small-scale competition that uses pre-programmed chips and puts them in small cars that can receive chip commands for racing.

What Bai Fan said was not entirely correct, he was only half right. In later generations, chip racing was generally popular among the mecha design department. As for the maintenance department, not many people were interested in it.

Because the chip racing race is the prototype of the chip design department in the later mecha design department.

In other words, this game, which was accidentally created by the maintenance department, was later formed into a new industry in the mecha department.

All those involved have been transformed into students of the chip design department.

"No wonder Aunt Bai said that you have been in the maintenance department of the First Mecha Academy for two years, but your grades have been getting worse every year. It turns out that you have been wasting your time on playing around." Du Ruizhi curled his lips.

At that time, the chip design department had not yet appeared, and students who were overly obsessed with chip development would often suffer academic decline as a result, causing some colleges to regard chip racing as a scourge.

This situation did not continue until the emergence of organisms with neural circuit modules in later generations. The true role of the chip was then fully revealed, becoming a major system second only to optical computer design.

Unfortunately, this era is still too advanced.

"You can't say that." Lin Tao waved his hand: "The so-called existence is for a reason. Since the Chip Speed ​​Race has been able to exist for a long time, there must be a reason for it."

"That's right, Lin Tao is right." Lin Tao's words made Bai Fan burst into laughter. He glanced at Du Ruizhi and lectured him: "You are from the engine design department, how can you understand the fun of chip racing? It is a hundred times more fun than mecha."

"Senior Brother Bai Fan, are you going to participate in the chip racing race again tonight?" Du Ruiming was impatient. When he was in Hyacinth College, he had heard of this chip racing race that was popular in the mecha maintenance department. Unfortunately, this race was only popular in the First Mecha College, and even Hyacinth College failed to become popular.

Because, although this chip racing competition may seem simple, the technology involved is no less than that of any mecha major in the college.

"Du Ruiming, you are not allowed to go." Du Ruizhi's face suddenly darkened. They came to the First Mecha Academy to improve themselves. If they indulged in pleasure like Bai Fan, wouldn't it be a waste of the opportunity recommended by Master Gu Lei? "Let him go." Lin Tao said with a smile.

"Lin Tao, you——"

Du Ruizhi was furious, but if it weren't for Lin Tao, they might not have the opportunity to enter the First Mecha Academy, so she couldn't refute Lin Tao's words.

"It's okay. Let him see it for himself." Lin Tao said, and then asked Bai Fan, "Bai Fan, when are you leaving?"

"Of course it's now." Although Bai Fan didn't hear Lin Tao calling him "brother", Lin Tao's attitude towards the chip racing race has already made him in a good mood: "If you want to go too, then follow me immediately."

"Ruiming, if you are interested, let's go over and take a look together." After Lin Tao said this, he followed Bai Fan out.

With Lin Tao's words, and Du Ruiming having already had a yearning for the chip racing race, he immediately followed behind.

"You guys..." Du Ruizhi looked very angry, but then he changed his mind and felt that Du Ruiming might really become addicted to it, so he followed behind with a stern face.

As soon as I walked out of the building, I saw Bai Fan standing at the door waiting.

"Do you have a car? That place is quite far from here. I have to take a taxi every time I go there. If you have a car, please give me a ride." Bai Fan said with a smile.

"Can I help you save some money on the fare?" Du Ruizhi looked angrily.

"Du Ruiming, go drive the car over here." Lin Tao gestured.

"Brother Lin Tao is still a connoisseur." Bai Fan gave a thumbs up, but at the same time he looked disapprovingly at Du Ruizhi who belittled his hobby. If it weren't for Master Gu Lei, he wouldn't want to bother with him.

The hovercraft arrived soon.

Hiss! Seeing the appearance of the hover car, Bai Fan took a deep breath and said, "Wow, this is the latest model of hover car popular this year. The price is at least tens of millions, and you may not be able to buy it even if you have money. Who are you?"

Being able to buy a car like this, she shouldn't be short of money, so why would she rent from his house? Bai Fan was puzzled.

Du Ruizhi snorted, ignored him, and got into the car angrily.

"Uh! You little woman..." Bai Fan was dumbfounded.

"Get in the car." Lin Tao smiled and let Bai Fan sit in the front so that he could show Du Ruiming the way.

After starting the hovercraft, the group left for Mingyuan City.

After their identities were recorded at the First Mecha Academy, no patrol mechas stopped them anymore.

The journey was smooth.

After leaving Mingyuan City, with Bai Fan's directions, the hovercraft headed straight for a small town in the suburbs.

After arriving, Lin Tao saw many hover cars parked outside the town, some of them were the latest popular models. It seemed that the identities of the people participating in the chip racing race were also varied.

Bai Fan is a frequent visitor here and took Du Ruiming to find a parking space.

As soon as the car stopped and Bai Fan got out of the door, a surprised voice came over: "Huh? Isn't this Bai Fan? You made a fortune, how did you get such a new car?"

Bai Fan seemed to be very familiar with the other party and immediately laughed: "Do you think I can buy this kind of hovercraft with my pocket money?"

"Hehe~ It seems that you have found a good backer. Are you planning to make a comeback with the help of them?"

Lin Tao got out of the car and looked in the direction of the voice. He saw the other person was thin, covered in black oil stains, and his clothes looked like they had not been washed for a long time. He was leaning over to look at him.

"Huh? Aren't you Lin Tao?"

This thin man seemed to be a student of the First Mecha Academy. He recognized Lin Tao at a glance and screamed in surprise.

His voice was quite loud, attracting the attention of several people nearby.

"Is it really Lin Tao?"

"Lin Tao just confronted Director Tong from the Engine Design Department this morning, but I didn't expect him to come to our Chip Racing Contest in the evening."

"Hehe~ Director Tong should have been taught a lesson long ago. Did he really think that if Master Gu Lei wasn't here, he would be the No. 1 in the First Mecha Academy?"

"By the way, Lin Tao is here. Will Du Ruiming, who was with him, and Du Ruizhi, who had the bad luck to join the engine design department, come along?"

…

Everyone murmured.

Du Ruiming and Du Ruizhi followed Lin Tao out of the car. When Du Ruizhi heard the last sentence, his expression changed on the spot. He was really talking about something that was not related to the topic. Du Ruizhi was so angry that she immediately looked at the person who said this with a knife-like look.

The man shuddered and turned around and left quickly.

Sometimes, angry girls are very unreasonable, so people with common sense don’t dare to make girls angry in person, so how could that person dare to stay?

"Lin Tao, are you also interested in the chip racing race?" The thin man had already left Bai Fan and was looking at Lin Tao with a smile.

"Who are you?" Lin Tao wondered.

"I'm also from the Mecha Maintenance Department. If you hadn't chosen the Materials Department, we would be brothers in the same department. Oh, by the way, my name is Ling Zixun, you can call me Lingzi." The thin Ling Zixun seemed to be very familiar.

"Ling Heizi, what do you mean? Lin Tao is my friend." Bai Fan on the side became anxious.

"Huh? Lin Tao is the one who dares to confront Director Tong, do you really think he is a nobody?" Ling Zixun curled his lips: "Besides, I advise you not to offend people who can afford this new type of hovercraft easily."

Water fish?

Lin Tao frowned slightly.

Du Ruiming's expression turned unfriendly as he looked at Bai Fan.

Du Ruizhi was so angry that he had no place to vent it. His face darkened and he looked coldly at Bai Fan who was standing there, feeling a little embarrassed.
