The Urban Dao Child. Chapter 45
Advertisement
Luna agreed to Yang Dao's request, even though she understood little. After arranging for food delivery, she left. Yang Dao called Professor Dew out for the operation room, as he called it, and had her eat. The Professor was very reluctant to stand up from her chair. She was dedicated to her work and understood that eating for energy is also necessary.
She asked Yang Dao to put the meal on the table and she would eat it after washing up. Yang Dao had no qualms about it and served the food. Then, out of curiosity, he walked inside the room, where the computer was placed. He saw a coding screen being displayed on the monitor. This system had no operating system, so they designed one from scratch to fulfill their needs. He sat down in the chair, skimmed through the codes. Then he slowly started writing a code.
His eyes were fixed on the monitor and his fingers moved smoothly on the keyboard, producing a rhythmic sound. He was instantly cut off from the world. All that remained to him was the computer screen and codes in front of him.
Kylie Dew came out of the bathroom. She had changed into loose cotton lower and an oversized pullover. She was young, but this attire gave her that girl next door aura. She walked out, sat down on the couch, and started eating the food. One thing was awkward. She did not find Yang Dao when she came out. Thinking that he might have gone back to his place upstairs, she continued eating.
After cleaning up the dishes and putting them up to dry, she headed back to work. As her footsteps neared the processing room, she picked up a rhythmic sound. An expert herself, she was more than familiar with this sound. Dashed inside the room and saw a handsome boy writing code at a speed faster than herself. She wanted to stop him, but his concentration was too high and he did not react to her voice.
She glanced at the screen instinctively to see how much of her work is lost, but soon her initial anxiety turned to surprise, then to shock, and finally disbelief. Yang Dao has keyed in a lot of code, some of which was fixing the bugs her own code might have. She grabbed a chair and sat down beside him. This was an opportunity to learn.

The more she observed, the more she was excited. This young boy in front of her was typing up the code as if has been practicing from birth. Time flew, and it has been an hour since Yang Dao started typing. Suddenly he stopped in his movements as he muttered, "Would be nice if we had an assistant program. This would have been so much easier."
Behind him, Kylie Dew heard this and sighed. She said, "That would have been great, but only the crypto nation has an assistant program. They don't allow it to be imported by the world."
Yang Dao spoke, "I have been to the Crypto nation once. The hotel I stayed in was very dingy but once I was outside strolling, I found a broken mobile. It was lying there near the garbage dump. I picked it up. Read some books and found that the device can be traced the moment it is switched on. Some online forums mentioned that if the device is found out-of-bounds then it will be remotely scraped. Thus, I did not start it. Now that we need it, first I will remove the tracker and then use it to extract the assistant program code and imitate it to some level."
His words surprised Kylie Dew. She sat up straight in her chair and said, "That sounds brilliant, but how are you going to remove the tracker?"
Yang Dao replied, "Remove the storage drive of the device, connect it to a normal notebook. Do not go online first, afterward copy the data to the notebook. Connect the notebook to this computer, write a scanning code. Rectify the tracking code. Extract the rest, change it and use it. Sounds plausible?" he was still young and had to ask for the advice to confirm his direction.
He turned back, only to find a surprising beauty looking at him with stars in her eyes. He waved his hand in front of her and only then did Kylie snap out of her daze. She coughed and spoke, "Your idea is good. We can try it. But let's do it tomorrow morning. You should go to bed."
Yang Dao spoke, "Not only me but also go to bed as well. Come, you will keep working if you stay here. We are going upstairs. We cannot move ahead for the time being. We need something that can be faster than the human brain to code all this in the system."

Professor Dew was a young woman after all, and being asked by a boy to stay at his place. This was not appropriate. She countered his proposal, "No, no, I should stay here. As the elder one among us, I should stay here to ensure the safety of the computer. What if someone broke in?"
Yang Dao glanced at her weirdly and said, "This is a highly secure premise, you know? Also, what floor are we on?" his eyes clearly held a question as it was pointed at Kylie. Is your IQ plummeting from lack of sleep?
The professor could not counter and how was she to say that a girl and a boy with no relation should not spend the night at each other's place? Wouldn't that make it even more awkward? The boy was unfretted by her concerns and asked her again, "Are you coming professor or not?"
The beauty sighed and accepted her fate. Yang Dao locked the place with the key card, operated the elevator, and ascended to his own residence. Kylie was surprised as she walked inside the house. She thought to herself, 'Being rich is really cool. You can live in such a place? I want to get rich as well. Ugh.'
Yang Dao pointed at the right corner of the living room and said, "You can use the room there. It has everything you might need. See you in the morning, professor. Good night." with that said, he left to his own room on the left side of the house. The beauty was left standing alone. She could not believe what just happened. To think that this is how she will be given her room to sleep at night.
She shook her head and walked to the room pointed earlier. The room was clean and cozy. Only a bed and a cupboard were placed inside, the decoration was white and brown in theme. This was probably the guestroom of the house, she guessed. After taking a little while to get familiar with everything inside, she laid on the bed as her half-open eyes gazed at the ceiling. Her brain was filled with ways to develop the computer system.
Yes, she was a workaholic and 90% of her brain was occupied with it. Yang Dao deep has a good impression over her, but it was still too earlier for her to think about him before going to bed.
In Jewel Nation, 16 is considered an adult and they don't bound students from dating their teachers, but it should be only after graduation or you better change the subject of that teacher to avoid the suspicion of being spoon-fed in the exams.
While Kylie Dew swung between reality and slumberland. Yang Dao sat down cross-legged in his room. He was meditating, trying to increase his range of wind perception. After half an hour when he found no growth at all, he sighed and opened his eyes. He laid down on his bed and thought about how to create a better operating system for his computer and then conduct experiments.
He kept sighing as he encountered obstacles in his mind. He doubted his way to approach further in this field. Suddenly he recalled he promised Feng Yun a video call. Hurriedly searched for his phone and dialed her number.
The call connected and before Feng Yun could greet him, Yang Dao spoke, "Sorry, Sister Yun, I was busy coding for the operating system and this totally slipped my mind." his tone was sincere, worried that Feng Yun might not talk to him.
The other side replied, "Hm, so Young Master, does care about, Yunyun. I wonder if he will felt the same about me?" it was a voice Yang Dao never heard before. Yet it felt familiar to him. Just like how he felt when he heard Feng Yun for the first time.
With an uncertain expression is asked, "Are you a familiar spirit?"
The other side chuckled and replied, "Very good, you are smart, Young Master. I will meet you soon as for Feng Yun. I will tell her to call you back soon. She is busy now as something came up. See you later."
Tu... Tu... Tu...
The call was disconnected and Yang Dao was surprised. He did not expect to hear the voice of another familiar spirit when he called Feng Yun. To be honest, he has not yet learned to use the mobile otherwise, he could have seen the face of that lady. Yes, the speaker was a lady.
