In the following days, August and Robert began practicing with chopsticks.
In their eyes, using chopsticks was a secret to performing successful surgeries. They even thought of it as some sort of undisclosed advanced skill Yang Ping had. They felt their surgeries were always far behind Yang Ping's, and the source of it, they believed, was the chopsticks.
Therefore, they tried their utmost during their training.
Moreover, August had another arduous task - to persuade Manstein to review papers early. Manstein was a stubborn and eccentric individual who only trusted himself, making it hard for him to be convinced. He would not play into August's hands.
Robert was very helpful. He had begun preparations for a custom dynamic brace for Yu Shuilian. Based on Robert's suggestions, Boston Dynamics was making a custom dynamic brace for Yu Shuilian.
What Takahashi couldn't accomplish, Robert succeeded in doing, scoring additional points for himself in the process.
