Do you think it's a joke ?
Under the lamppost on Chrome Garden Street, William leaned exhausted, having just had one of the scariest moments of his life.
" Miss Simien..."
People were passing on the same street and staring at William's tired face sitting under the lamppost, but no one thought to help him or even call an ambulance.
Minutes later, William got up and felt that all his bones were broken, a feeling he couldn't express by screaming or whining.
The boy headed towards his damned house.
It's 2:19 at night.
William was staring at the gas pipes that led to his room on the roof, but unfortunately, he could not go up, he felt that he would die if he stood any longer, let alone 30 meters.
William turned left and right to make sure he was alone.
He squatted down, and began absorbing the astral energy into his inner lantern to bring about some healing for himself.
"Hof.. hof..hof."
William's body was sweating a lot, and even now he was still in shock...not because he was hit by the car...but because of what he saw inside that car !
That cocky young man in the back seat of the car was Robert, when William joined the Academy of Sciences , that rich boy was his classmate, and when William graduated, he found himself compelled to work in Roshan's lab... which belonged to Robert's family... and with that, William lost 15 years of his life.
In his previous life, William recognized Robert two years from now, and perhaps the reason Robert tricked William into entering Roshan's laboratory was William's ingenuity in invention, but now, Robert had not seen William's face, and besides, he did not know him in the first place, thus Automatically, William felt a little safer.
William continued to meditate.
The astral energy was abundant at night, as opposed to the morning, so, William was able to catch his breath and regain a little bit of his physical ability.
after an hour .
William went to the litter box, and hid the box of equipment he had taken from stranger Sam with plastic bags and the like
It's 3:50 at night.
William decided to climb the tubes after feeling that he could, but even so, it was not that easy, the bandages on his hand were almost torn, which made him feel doubly in pain.
William opened the right door, making an annoying creaking sound.
"Do you think it's a joke? The rules of this damned family... are they a joke to you?" said the middle-aged man, of medium build and tall body.
His face was grim, with an almost gray mustache and a pale and tired face, and his eyes were so sharp that his glasses almost broke...this was William's adoptive father...Edward Stewart...the Stewart patriarch.
William remained silent without answering. He hated this old man to the utmost, because he did not consider this family a family at all. He was moody and rarely entered the house... and what he did outside... only he knew.
"Where have you been?… don't answer" Edward was angry, he wasn't an impatient person, so… he went straight to the wall the broom was on
Edward took that broom, and only took off the wand.
William stared at his broomsticks, and smiled, he knew what this old man would do...because it was similar to what he had done before.
are you smiling? Tell me, you bastard? What is funny ? Are my laws funny? ..a damn joke for you? ..you will get it twice this time...your screaming will not help, so cry silently, and we will see who will notice then!! "
Edward raised the stick up, to the surface of the room, and lowered it forcefully toward William's head.
Undoubtedly, William wasn't just going to take the hit, he tried to block it with his arms after trying to collect the aura of the few stars in the room.
Hit !
"Argh..."
William's path wasn't specialized in physical strength or armor, he was relying on absorbing star aura and supporting his body with it, but in the middle of this small room, star aura was scarce, so William tried to absorb star aura from the outside, which took a long time
See you don't laugh! . What's the matter? "
Edward hit him with the stick again, and unlike the previous time a few days before, this time he was aiming privately in the face.
William wasn't a super boy...or a prodigy boy..although he was smart and talented, he was only in his field...science, invention and sometimes hate...so he had no way of avoiding this severe beating.
His way of life was to never face any danger unless he prepared for it the most... but he never prepared for it.
Even before he went back in time, William had never lowered his head to someone...his pride wouldn't allow it..so what about now, how could a great scientist like him bow down to a failed father who couldn't even raise a family? ...
Continue to whine silently.
Apparently, the old man did not plan to stop soon, the smile on his face increased as the force with which he was hitting rose, however, William could see that the hideous old man was holding back his strength.
Hit !
Seconds later, the old man stopped hitting William's tender body... but that was for one reason... the stick had broken!
The old man stared at the broken stick, grimaced in silence, turned to the left door, opened it,. Then he turned his head to William, "Laugh, and hide that pain, as if you had never experienced it."
The old man came out, closing the door behind him.
William's body moved a little, no more, no less.
Looks like he needs another moment of rest...a long moment.
Could luck be worse than this?
"Haha, of course not, this is the limit for bad luck.. it's not like Jinx Spirits are in love with me."
William's face was disfigured with blue or red stripes, and Miss Simin was already dead, so it would be difficult for him to buy bandages from now on, and he'd better be frugal about it.
He opened the right door and got out.
Head to the ceiling ledge, grab the tubes tightly, and go down.
Although the pain was indescribable, his pain tolerance was not bad.
When William got down, he dug up trash bags in the filthy alley, and took out the box of equipment he had put before he went up.
William then climbed up the gas tubes, while holding the box in his hand. The box was not large, not even heavy, its contents only being batteries of the smallest size, small cameras, and light metal.
After William arrived at
His room again, and closed the right and left door with some furniture. He went to his office and opened the box, trying to make the least amount of noise.
He had already expected that his father or a member of his family would wait for him in this room because he was late, so he hid this box in trash bags.
Gently grab the small SD cams, they were about the size of a bee, but he needed something smaller..
The light metal will be used as the chassis, while the removable TO battery will be used as the power center, and finally the SD camera will be used as the video recorder and data saver.
William pulled out from under his closet a small box the size of a lunchbox, which contained screws, some screwdrivers, and the like...
It was an excellent SD camera for this era, but it was, nonetheless, a lot bigger than what William wanted.
William disassembled the SD camera into small pieces, and put their components separately.
The lens, image sensor and advanced LCD screen are isolated on one side, while the camera body and memory card are on the other side.
One of the main parts of the camera was the chassis, a part that tends to be physically larger or slightly heavier than the rest.
This micro SD camera was free from user controls, because it is often used by a remote control or smart programming.
William reinstalled the following important parts: the lens, the image sensor, the advanced LCD screen...these were the lightest and most important parts of the camera.
After William collected these parts, he began making a light metal frame.
This type of metal was in the form of thin sheets of paper that were foldable and shaped, very similar to aluminum, with an almost negligible weight.
With William's excellent skill, William shaped the light metal into a small fly, made easy with his tools and experience.
The tools he used were kinda good, he got them as a prize for excellence in high school, they were the highest possible style at the time, he had to hide them from his family so that they wouldn't be stolen from him and sold.
The final step is to attach the TO battery, which is a small rectangular shape that can barely bear the weight, and attach it to the top of the flying robotic insect hull for extra strength.
This battery absorbs solar energy as well as wind energy, stores it and then converts it into energy.
