Mecha maintenance room.
Yan Hao was stepping on a ladder, checking the circuits on a five-meter-tall mecha arm. He was holding a blueprint in his hand, and occasionally lowered his head to make a few notes. At the other end of the maintenance room, He Shao was making a level five energy block.
Learning to make a level 5 energy block is one of the final exams for the Mecha Manufacturing Department this semester. In fact, under Yan Hao's urging, He Shao has already mastered the production of a level 5 energy block, but Professor Qin seems to value He Shao very much and increased the difficulty of the exam for him, requiring him to make a level 5 energy block with an efficiency of more than 75% to pass, which makes He Shao very depressed.
"73.22%, ahhh~~" He Shao stared at the value displayed on the tester, wishing he could hit the ground with his head, "The fifth block, the fifth block, why can't I get past this 73%."
Yan Hao was disturbed and turned around helplessly, smiling and said: "I told you, your mental power is not fine enough when channeling energy."
"More detailed? If you want more detailed, I'll go crazy." He spent the whole morning making level 5 energy blocks and channeling the energy. Now his brain is about to explode. "Hao, you made so many energy blocks before, why didn't I see you have a headache?"
"Maybe I have better control over my mental power than you do."
"Please remove the possibility, thank you." He Shao was tortured to the point of having conspiracy theories, "There are so many people in the class, but Professor Qin only specifically asked me to achieve an efficiency of more than 75%. Is it possible that Professor Qin is targeting me on purpose?"
"I don't think it's targeting you. It's probably to train you on purpose." Yan Hao said.
"So-called deliberate training is targeting in the name of love," said He Shao.
"You have learned the fifth-level energy formula very well. You can calculate tens of thousands of unstable points in fifteen minutes. With your computing ability, it is not difficult for you to make a fifth-level energy block with an efficiency of more than 60%." Yan Hao said.
"That's why I said Professor Qin was targeting me. Otherwise, I would have definitely passed the final exam. Why would I have to practice so hard here?"
Seeing He Shao's bitter and resentful look, Yan Hao thought for a moment and suddenly said seriously: "He Shao, Professor Qin's request to you may have something to do with me. If you don't want to, we won't live together next semester."
With a "clang", the energy block in He Shao's hand fell and almost hit his foot: "Yan Hao, what are you talking about?"
"Your mental strength is actually not worse than other students in the class, but your mastery of the fifth-level energy formula is the best in the class except for me."
"That's because you often give me extra lessons." Yan Hao's math talent is the best He Shao has ever seen. He has already learned many formulas that the teacher hasn't taught yet. So every time the teacher finishes the class, Yan Hao will give him one-on-one tutoring in private, and even teach him how to regularly calculate those unstable points in the process of making energy blocks.
"It's because I often give you extra lessons. Professor Qin knows that you learn energy formulas better than other students in the class, so he requires you to have more mental strength." Yan Hao blamed himself, his face full of frustration. "So, it's actually me who caused you to be targeted. It's all my fault. He Shao, I will apply for a single dormitory next semester, so that Professor Qin should not target you anymore."
"No, what does this have to do with you? You're giving me extra lessons for my own good." He Shao said hurriedly.
"But it was me who caused you to be targeted by Professor Qin." Yan Hao lowered his head, looking listless.
He Shao saw that his roommate, who had been a sunny and cheerful student for three months, seemed to be depressed again. He was so anxious that he scratched his head and said, "Well, okay, I'll accept it in order to continue being your roommate. You can target me if you want. I don't believe I can't do it."
"You don't have to force it."
"No, no, I know the teacher is doing this for my own good," said He Shao.
"real?"
"Really!" He Shao dared not deny it, he was afraid that if he shook his head, Yan Hao would run to submit an application for a single dormitory. Obviously, he and Yan Hao lived in the same dormitory in order to copy homework, but now it seems that this homework is not easy to copy.
"Then continue practicing. Don't rush to complete the energy combing. You can try to comb it slowly using twice the time as before." Yan Hao suggested with a smile.
"Let's wait until the afternoon. I'm a little hungry and plan to go to the cafeteria to eat. Would you like to join us?" He Shao stretched and stood up. He had a headache and needed to rest for a while.
"I'm not going. I've only checked half of the line. I'll talk about it after I finish it." Yan Hao shook his head.
"There will be no food in the cafeteria by the time you're done. Forget it, I'll bring you some." He Shao sighed and said helplessly.
When I called him to eat in the middle of doing something, he wasn't in the mood for it.
"Thanks."
He Shao waved his hand, rubbed his aching neck and walked out. Yan Hao looked at his back, but his face was full of mischievous smiles. If He Shao turned around at this time and saw the smile on Yan Hao's face, he would definitely know that he had been deceived.
He Shao is good in every way except that he is a little too lazy. He only cares about passing the exams, as if one extra point is a waste. This makes Professor Qin, who values talent, love and hate him.
Today is the weekend, and there are fewer students in the school cafeteria than usual, but it is still very lively. Students gather in twos and threes, and seem to be discussing something, with happy faces. The most excited among them seem to be the people in the mecha driving department.
The school uniforms of the Federal University are similar in style, but different departments have different styles of badges embroidered on the outside of their uniforms. He Shao relies on these badges to determine their identities.
Did something happen in the mecha pilot department? Why are they all so excited?
He Shao thought about it while going to the window to queue up.
"You say, is this true?"
"You'll know after you try it. Anyway, these herbs don't look expensive. I'll go to the pharmacy and get a prescription after dinner."
"It will definitely work. This is the formula of the medicine released by the military. Moreover, the developer of this medicine is the same person as the master pharmacist who improved the formula of the advanced sedative last time."
"Little cutie?"
"Pfft, I'm embarrassed to call him that. You said that such a master is quite childish and gave himself a nickname called Little Cutie."
He Shao listened for a while and thought this was a bit strange. The improved formula of this advanced sedative was made by their Yan Hao.
"Senior, what are you discussing?" He Shao couldn't help but go up to ask.
"Junior, you haven't had time to check the Star Network yet, right?" The senior who was asked was from the Mecha Driving Department. When he saw He Shao's school uniform, he found that he was a student from the Mecha Manufacturing Department. His tone immediately became a little more enthusiastic. "Just half an hour ago, the military announced a formula for treating hand injuries on the Star Network. It is said that the herbs purchased according to this formula do not need to be refined by a pharmacist. They can be used directly by soaking them in boiling water. And you can also use your mental power to stimulate the medicinal properties again. This is a great thing for those of us who are learning mecha driving."
"I can stimulate the medicinal properties of the herbs myself without a pharmacist. This can't be fake." He Shao subconsciously didn't believe it. After all, stimulating the medicinal properties requires sufficient knowledge of herbs.
"So everyone is talking about it, and this formula has been published on the entire network for half an hour. I guess people who have used it will give feedback soon. After I finish my meal, I also plan to get a prescription and try it. However, after all, it was published by the military, so I don't think it can be fake." said the senior.
He Shao nodded and turned on the light computer. Sure enough, he saw a blocked promotional message in his mailbox. There was a link in it. He had blocked the information before in order to concentrate on making the level 5 energy blocks, so he did not see the promotional message at the first time.
He Shao clicked on the information link and immediately jumped to the military's official page. At the top of the page, next to the golden top label, was a medicine formula. Below the formula, there was a line of bold text.
[This prescription is a cracker of the previous advanced sedative data model, and was improved by the cute potion master himself. ]
Without too much hype or explanation, just this one sentence seems to be able to illustrate the credibility of the recipe.
He Shao stared at the last line of words, looking at it over and over again, until the chef at the window asked him what dishes he wanted, and then he was brought back to his senses by someone's shout.
"Classmate, what dishes do you want?"
"I don't want to eat anymore." He Shao turned and left the cafeteria. The chef didn't care and continued to serve food to the next student.
He Shao ran back to the mecha maintenance room in one breath, and before he could catch his breath, he put his hands on his waist and shouted to Yan Hao who was still on the ladder repairing the mecha: "Yan Hao."
Yan Hao lowered his head in confusion: "You're back after dinner?"
"..." I just stood in line in the cafeteria for less than three minutes. Who eats so fast? This guy must have been so obsessed with studying mechas that he even forgot the time.
"Come down first, I have something to ask you."
"Oh." Yan Hao put down his tools and slowly came down from the ladder. "What's the matter?"
"Is that you, little cutie?" He Shao asked.
"???" Yan Hao blinked, then his face slowly turned red, "You... don't say that to me."
Yan Hao, who lacked praise in his previous life, developed a problem that makes him blush and become shy easily when being praised in this life.
"..." Damn, this is a misunderstanding. He Shao coughed and corrected, "I mean, your nickname on the Internet is Little Cutie."
Yan Hao finally reacted and realized that he was just being sentimental. He shook his head in embarrassment: "No, I don't have an online name."
"Did you develop the formula of the medicine announced by the military today?" As he said that, He Shao opened the Star Network and showed the medicine formula to Yan Hao.
Yan Hao took a look and said in surprise: "Hey, did the military announce it so quickly?"
"You really are a little cutie!" Yan Hao's words were an indirect admission.
"..." Yan Hao looked at He Shao.
"I mean, this little cutie potion master." He Shao knew that Yan Hao had misunderstood again, and quickly pointed to the line of words below the potion formula and showed it to Yan Hao, "The military said that this potion formula was improved by a potion master named Little Cutie, who is the same person who cracked the data model of the advanced sedative. Doesn't this mean that you are Little Cutie?"
Oh my god, whoever came up with this name is so cool.
"This potion formula is mine, but I didn't let them give me this name." When Yan Hao saw the seven words "Little Cute Potion Master", he was too embarrassed to read them out loud.
He Shao thought for a moment and asked, "The formula of this medicine was published on the military website. Senior Sheng Heng must have helped me with that."
"Yeah." Yan Hao nodded.
Well, the case is solved. It is most likely that this sinister Mr. Sheng gave this nickname.
"It's really Sima Zhao's intention." He Shao said softly, "When did you come up with such a recipe?"
"It was the last time I went to help my senior treat his hand injury..." Then Yan Hao told He Shao the whole process in detail.
"So, publishing it on Starnet for free is indeed a good idea. But..." He Shao looked at Yan Hao and complained half-truthfully, "Why didn't you tell me about such an important thing? I got the news from Starnet just like everyone else."
To be honest, when He Shao heard the news in the cafeteria, he felt a little uncomfortable. After all, he thought he and Yan Hao were good friends, and he was a little hurt that he saw the news on Starnet together with others about such a big event. But he also knew in his heart that Yan Hao had no obligation to tell him everything.
He Shao is not a shy person. If he feels uncomfortable, he will just say it out loud, and after that he won't care about it anymore.
"Then...if something like this happens again in the future, I will definitely tell you in advance. I'm sorry." Yan Hao promised.
"You didn't do anything wrong, why are you apologizing?" His apology caught He Shao off guard.
"I do. You are my friend, and I shouldn't let you get the news from the Internet like others." Yan Hao said seriously.
"Oh, I was just complaining casually, don't take it too seriously." He Shao was so regretful, he forgot that Yan Hao was an overly serious guy, he shouldn't have complained like that.
"It's not right." Yan Hao shook his head and said persistently, "Just like Yan Fei and I are both our parents' children, but our parents never remember me no matter what they do. Every time, I feel unhappy. This time I did something wrong, I won't do this again in the future, He Shao, I want to be friends with you forever."
"..." He Shao was stunned, and suddenly his eyes felt sore, a little touched, and a little sad, "I know, but you don't have to tell me everything, such as secrets, you don't have to tell anyone. But for things like today that the whole federation knows, you have to tell me in advance."
"Um."
"Just now, when I heard the news, I rushed back immediately and didn't even have time to eat. You have to treat me to a meal." He Shao came over and hugged Yan Hao's shoulders.
"Okay, I'll treat you to a big meal." Yan Hao agreed happily.
"You said, go!"
Inside the mecha training room.
Cheng Wenkang was looking down at Sheng Heng with an unbearable look on his face: "Boss, you picked this name, didn't you? You came up with it, little cutie. Did the junior brother agree?"
"Shut up." Sheng Heng was on the phone with someone in the military, his expression was a bit grumpy. How could he give his junior a nickname like this and make it public? Even if he wanted to call him cute, he would call him that behind closed doors. How could he let people outside call him that?
Once this star network is announced, everyone in the federation will call Yan Hao "little cutie". Just thinking about it makes Sheng Heng feel uncomfortable.
"Hello, Sheng Heng, what's the matter?" A deep male voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Uncle Yue, what's the matter with that nickname on the Internet?" Sheng Heng gritted his teeth.
"Oh, that nickname? The formula of the medicine is going to be announced to the public. Although it has to be anonymous, I can't just not have a name, so I made a nickname." Uncle Yue said.
"Then why did you choose such a nickname?"
"Oh, this has something to do with you." Uncle Yue laughed, "I asked you before what kind of person Yan Hao was, and you said he was a very cute junior. At that time, my subordinates asked me what nickname to give him, and I suddenly thought of this. It's appropriate, isn't it?"
"Change it for me!"
How apt? No, although it is apt, I will be teased by the whole internet if I do this, and I absolutely cannot tolerate that.
"I have already announced this, I can't change it."
“Change it immediately!”
"Well, I'm still busy." After saying that, the person on the other end hung up the phone. Sheng Heng was so angry that he almost smashed the computer terminal.
I don’t know if my junior will be angry when he sees this nickname.
The author has something to say: He Shao: It was you who chose it, so shameless.
Sheng Heng: ...
