Moonset, sunrise, and a new week arrives.
Lincoln leaves home early today, feeling light-hearted as he goes to take his subject three exam.
Warner also gets up early, but unlike Lincoln, he carries the heavy mood of one who has lost his parents as he goes to attend NetDragon's monthly meeting.
As expected, Richard emotionlessly questions him: "You were once brimming with confidence, claiming that you would achieve a technological breakthrough within two months and catch up with Cloud Dream's technology. Now there's only a week left, do you have anything to report to me?"
Warner's face is bitter; report? He wishes he could report something.
But the problem is that there has been zero progress in cracking the core microchip. What can he report? Apply for more funding?
Or should he ask Richard to bring in more top experts to help crack Cloud Dream's microchip?
Or better yet, ask the boss to find someone more capable?
Of course, these inner complaints couldn't really be voiced.
