"Do you know? I was injured on duty, saving an entire subway train."

"Really?"

"Of course! Look, this is the official WeChat account of Shanghai Metro, and it's also on Shanghai Release. They've all reported on me. Didn't you see the news?"

"Let me see... Is it really you?"

"of course."

"You're amazing! Can I know what you were thinking back then?"

"Of course, that's what I was thinking at the time..."

"He was thinking about what to eat for dinner, and then he just stood there in a daze on the tracks, and ended up being hit and paralyzed by that train."

Mei suddenly intervened between Xu Qi and the girl she didn't know.

With just one glance, when the girl saw Mei's beauty, which even without makeup could outshine a celebrity, she lowered her eyes, looking somewhat ashamed.

Xu Qi seemed oblivious to Mei's arrival, and asked blankly, "Mei? What are you doing here in your crowdfunding group 456127940?"

"If I had arrived any later, were you planning to risk reopening your wound and have sex with this girl in some bathroom?"

The explicit and sarcastic tone made the girl blush deeply, and she finally realized what the relationship was between this stunningly beautiful woman and Xu Qi...

She glared angrily at Xu Qi, as if blaming him for provoking her despite having such a beautiful girlfriend. In short, she quickly left.

Xu Qi shrugged and said, "I was just chatting with her casually."

"Really?" Mei narrowed her eyes. "I just went to take an exam, and you pull this stunt on me?"

"Uh..." Xu Qi seemed at a loss for words.

"Hoo..." Seemingly used to the other's debauchery, Mei straightened Xu Qi's somewhat disheveled hospital gown, stepped forward to help him up and said, "What you need now is to rest, go back to your room and lie down."

Now everyone in the hospital knows that Xu Qi has such a beautiful girlfriend.

Someone even whistled at Xu Qi.

Halfway through helping Mei, she suddenly sensed something was wrong...

"You deliberately?"

"Huh?" Xu Qi looked completely clueless about what Mei was saying. "What's wrong with me? Did I do anything?"

Mei's eyes narrowed again, but for some reason, she stopped pressing for answers and instead returned like a victorious queen, clutching her spoils.

"Okay, I have to admit, the way they look at me when they think you're my girlfriend makes me feel... kind of good."

"It's just vanity at play."

"It could also be possessiveness."

Mei suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Her breathing was noticeably erratic, as if she hadn't expected Xu Qi to utter such bold words.

He clearly... he clearly never treated me like this before...

In the past, no matter how much he provoked the other party, he would pretend to be stupid and hesitate to take a step forward. But now... he seems to be taking the initiative to attack.

Attack me?

Attack me, Raiden Mei!?

Mei immediately understood Xu Qi's inner thoughts from his sudden change in attitude, but...

But when the time came, she hesitated and wavered...

"Let's go back to the room first. I really need to lie down and rest for a while."

"Ah."

Back in the ward, Mei helped Xu Qi lie back down on the bed and took out the dinner bento she had prepared from the bag.

She prepared two meat dishes and one vegetable dish, knowing that Xu Qi was a carnivore who couldn't live without meat.

But compared to usual, Mei felt a little uncomfortable doing these things today because Xu Qi's gaze... was fixed on her the whole time.

It was enthusiastic and full of passion.

This made Mei blush and turn to Xu Qi, saying, "Why are you always staring at me?"

"nice."

Mei finally couldn't take it anymore.

She hurriedly dropped a sentence.

I'm going to the restroom!

Then he ran out of the ward as if he were fleeing.

Xu Qi sighed—Mei is so cute it's almost criminal…

"Aren't you being a little too hasty?"

Soda joked as she walked in from outside the ward.

“This is part of the plan, and it’s all something I owe her… I’ve rejected her for too long, and now I’m just making up for it.”

"I don't understand what you young people are thinking."

Su shook her head and began to examine Xu Qi's bones.

He lifted the covers and his hands roamed over Xu Qi's body. If it were any other man, Xu Qi would definitely mind, but this was Su—Dr. Su was different; he had a noble heart.

After a while, Su Zhi stood up, though he still had those squinty eyes, making it impossible to see his expression.

But even just by looking at her facial expression, Xu Qi could tell that Su was amazed.

"Your body's recovery ability is quite remarkable, and I have no intention of hiding it from you, because you should be able to guess it."

"It must be one of the professor's medications."

"That's right, you've turned misfortune into blessing this time. The drugs hidden in your body have been reactivated, and now your physical condition has probably reached a whole new level."

I even doubt that you could maintain normal brain function and stable bodily functions in a 12GB environment.

"That's not human at all."

Do you really think... you can even be considered human?

Xu Qi narrowed his eyes—could it be that the professor's seemingly joking remark that day... wasn't a joke at all?

"That's right, you are indeed human."

"Dr. Su, what kind of school did you learn to make such nonsensical jokes?"

"Haha." With a smile, Su patted Xu Qi on the shoulder. "Isn't it good to joke around once in a while?"

When can I be discharged from the hospital?

"Next week, it's best to observe for a few more days. Don't rush back to work. Rest and recuperate at Golden Courtyard for a while. I think your company won't mind this kind of thing."

"Indeed... but there are only a few days left..."

Hearing Xu Qi's remark, Su looked puzzled.

"what happened?"

But then Xu Qi smiled mysteriously at Su and said...

"What I mean is, I only have these few days to establish a relationship with Mei."

Su suddenly realized, and then clapped his hands and laughed.

"Then I wish you good luck, Xu Qi—although she has a lot of feelings for you, as you can see... she's not a girl who's easy to win over."

"indeed."

"I'm leaving now. You get some rest and don't do anything reckless in the near future."

"Of course, doctor."

Watching Su leave, Xu Qi lay back down on the bed—he needed to think carefully about what to do next.

······

After leaving the ward, Su returned to her private office and made a phone call.

"Hello? Professor."

"How is it, Su?"

Su picked up the cup of tea on the table—it was still warm. He shook it slightly, and his eyes, which had been squinting, slowly opened.

Those long, bright eyes were filled with shock.

"The results were beyond expectations... I'm afraid he can now handle V2V."

"Is that so... it means the limit can withstand 15G."

"No, Professor, you've misunderstood me."

"what?"

Su took another small sip of tea.

"He can completely master V2V."

"What!?" The professor's tone on the other end of the phone became noticeably more serious. "That's impossible!"

Su looked up at the window, her eyes filled with an inscrutable expression.

"Yes... I hope so too... but it's impossible."

12. It's just Bronya, right? Watch me get her QQ number.

"Manager Xia, the investigation report on 914 is ready. Please take a look."

With his hand still bandaged, Li Fu handed the USB drive to Xia Ya. A large document came into view, detailing the circumstances of the incident and the analysis of the causes.

Overall, after the vehicle speed reached 60km/h, the braking signal could not be transmitted due to the aging of the cables, which was not investigated during the previous rectification.

The aging cable can be locked as a (10238) segment bus cable.

The reason is very simple, but since it is an excellent document, it should naturally include troubleshooting ideas, relevant examples, and subsequent improvement measures.

It is indeed an excellent investigative report; it could be published directly as a graduate thesis.

"The reason is... the aging of the cables that was not investigated during the previous rectification." Xia Ya smiled slightly, pausing deliberately on the words "previously" and "not".

Li Fu seemed not to understand Xia Ya's meaning and said.

"That's right, that's the direct cause that the investigation revealed."

"Is that so..." Xia Ya remained noncommittal, glanced at the other person's bandaged left hand, and said with concern, "You still insist on going to work despite your arm injury. You can be said to be a role model for young people today."

Li Fucong's face lit up with joy.

"Manager Xia is too kind. It's only right."

"Hmm... Is it difficult to use?"

"It's okay, we can overcome it."

That would be quite a challenge... Xia Ya looked at the excellent investigation report in front of him, which was said to be entirely written by Li Fu Cong, and suddenly burst out laughing.

This puzzled Li Fucong.

"It's alright, you can go now. I'll have your department head send your investigation report to the group."

"Yes! Thank you, Supervisor Li!"

Watching his opponent retreat, Xia finally couldn't help but reveal a mocking smile.

"If you had said that someone else helped write it and you were only responsible for providing the ideas, I might have believed you a little bit. But you wrote it all by yourself? You're a one-finger writer, aren't you?"

After saying that, he deleted the document.

He could tell at a glance that the article was written by one of the group's deputy chief engineers.

Li Fucong really doesn't feel ashamed at all to just take it like that...

And the cause of this accident—it was so ridiculous that Char even felt a little pathetic.
