Chapter 1089:1089 I Won’t Admit Defeat
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
After a while, Ed finally cleared the robot’s original program instructions. It was winter, but he was so tired that he was sweating.
“Mr. Smith, do you need to rest for a while before the match?” Tan Rou asked kindly.
Ed would not let a girl look down on him. He insisted, “No need. Let’s start the petition now!”
Tan Rou would usually agree to her opponent’s request. Since Ed said that they didn’t need to rest, there was no need for them to waste any more time.
“Alright.” Tan Rou had a gentle smile on her face.
“Since we’re going to pete, we need someone to be the witness. I think Mayor Guo would be a suitable candidate.”
Mayor Guo was very happy to be the notary. He smiled and said, “Okay, then I’ll be the notary. However, I’m not familiar with robots. As for the results of the petition, it’ll be up to the audience to judge.”
Under everyone’s witness, the petition began. Tan Rou hadn’t peted with anyone for a long time, so she was looking forward to this petition.
She calmly turned on a puter and quickly operated on the keyboard. Her gaze was fixed on the puter screen, not affected by the surrounding environment at all.
Ed was also focused at first, but he was easily affected by the surrounding environment. This was not a game of cards, and there would be people talking beside him. These voices attracted his attention, making it impossible for him to focus on his puter screen.
“Hey, can your boss beat Ed Smith?” Mayor Guo quietly asked Shang Jin and the others.
Shang Jin looked at both sides. From the current situation, she felt that Tan Rou should be faster. “Mayor Guo, don’t worry. Our boss will not lose.”
Lang Yue chimed in. “Robotics is Boss’s specialty. I believe that Boss will win.”
One said that Tan Rou would not lose, and the other said that Tan Rou would win. Ed had just experienced the difficulty of dismantling the robot himself. He felt that this petition was a little difficult.
Tan Rou was fast. Just as Ed was thinking about what instructions to give the robot, Tan Rou had already begun to pass the program instructions she had written to the robot.
“Have you written the program yet?” Ed panicked when he saw the situation.
Tan Rou didn’t answer him. She continued to transmit mands and began to write the next program mand. Ed realized that he couldn’t be distracted anymore, so he covered his ears and focused all his attention on the robot.
An hour and a half later, the petition finally came to an end. Tan Rou’s robot had already started running. After it started up, it first greeted its owner and then began to slide.
Tan Rou’s first program instruction was to dance. The little robot extended its two short legs and began to spin and dance. Although it wasn’t dancing very gracefully, it looked very cute because it was round.
Tan Rou’s robot had already finished dancing. Ed’s robot had just received instructions, but it could not dance. It could only do some simple actions according to its master’s instructions.
If Ed was given some more time, he would be able to write an excellent program. However, this petition was a petition of improvisation. Whoever wrote the instructions better and faster could be reflected in a short period.
It was obvious that Ed’s programming speed was much slower than Tan Rou’s, and the robot’s mobility was also weaker. If he didn’t control it, the robot wouldn’t move at all.
The oute was clear, but Tan Rou didn’t say anything. She was waiting for Ed to admit defeat.
Ed did not want to admit defeat at all. How could he lose to a little girl? Hence, they sat in front of the puter in a deadlock, neither of them willing to speak first.
Mayor Guo broke the silence. “Hmm, I don’t know who won or lost. So, who won?”
Ed’s expression was very ugly, but he did not say a word. Tan Rou was smiling, but she didn’t say anything, as if she was waiting for him to speak first.
Shang Jin couldn’t hold back her words. She smiled. “Of course, our boss won!”
