I'm Not Going to Be Bullied By a Girl Chapter 790: Dual System

Chapter 790: Dual System

Dr. Yu was a madman scientist who was determined to modify humanity. It was a waste of his talents to have him spend half the day to fix my phone.

I unfortunately bought a knock-off phone with a built-in chip designed by Fang Xin containing a backdoor, but I still can’t throw it away immediately.

It’s funny that others receive quests from good NPCs like “Gandalf”, but I’m receiving quests from those evil BOSSES.

One of the tasks Ai ShuQiao gave me was to infiltrate the Happy Science Cult to steal a copy of their calculation program, the “Karma Calculator”.

I still couldn’t throw away my phone in order to complete that task, or Fang Xin and Professor Bai might get suspicious.

That’s why Dr. Yu helped me fix my broken screen and helped me investigate the static noise during calls and why the power was draining very quickly.

“The noise during calls was caused by an external impact and can be fixed by replacing the speaking, but as for the batteries being drained very quickly…”

Dr. Yu had a bitter smile.

“That’s because Fang Xin increased the amount of monitoring services, so it increased the amount of power it uses. It’s kind of like you have to feed an extra person at dinner, and that person is a spy.”

No wonder why the battery can only ever be charged to 90% after the charging failure incident. It turns out that there is a spy module stealing power! I thought it was because it was a knockoff, but it even created an illusion that the battery was being drained faster because it couldn’t be charged full, how deceptive.

Luckily, the phone has a large power bank, so it lasts longer than regular phones even when the batteries were draining faster. The important part was to stop Fan Xin (or Professor Bai) from snooping in on me anytime.

The solution Dr. Yu provided was Dual SIM Dual Standby.

The Dual SIM Dual Standby phones that often appear on TV commercials were referring to phones where you could insert two SIM cards while also being on standby where the phone could have two phone numbers (for example, one would be used for local calls and one for long-distance calls).

After my phone was modified by Dr. Yu, it still only had one SIM card and one phone number, but it had two different hardware systems you could freely switch between.

When using Fang Xin’s hardware system, naturally, it would still be bugged. I can deliberately reveal some unimportant information, or even wrong information to the Happy Science Cult.

When using Dr. Yu’s system, I would be in safe mode. Even if Professor Bai was listening, he wouldn’t be able to get any new information, it would only show that my phone was out of service.

The only way to switch hardware systems was to shake the phone 7 times quickly in the frequency of “3, 1, 3”, which feels a bit like the international call for help code “SOS”.

I followed Dr. Yu’s instructions and did it once. It wasn’t difficult, but it just looked like I was playing on WeChat…

“Wait. If you added another hardware system to my phone, and it’s also in standby mode at all times, wouldn’t it consume twice as much power as before?”

Dr. Yu shifted his Google gla.s.ses with his left hand and he was still holding the soldering iron in his right hand. Next to him was a multi-meter connected to another open cell phone, which was Winnie’s Samsung phone.

Dr. Yu originally found it troublesome and wasn’t going to upgrade Winnie’s phone, but was going to buy her a new one. However, since he was already modifying my phone, he modified hers at the same time so she could play games more smoothly.

B-2, who was a “personal a.s.sistant robot”, also wandered back and forth in Dr. Yu’s room. From time to time, after Dr. Yu asked it a question, it would give an answer which saved Dr. Yu the time from checking online.

“It’s not twice the original.” Dr. Yu corrected me, “It’s at most 1.8 times.”

“What’s the difference between 1.8 and 2?” I said angrily, “It basically uses more power than before after you modified it.”

“Beep. 2-1.8=0.2”

B-2 began calculating a math problem.

“Get lost.” I shouted at it in a bad mood, “I’m going to tell Ai Mi to chop you up with an Arcanite Reaper tomorrow.”

B-2’s expression was still ⊙▂⊙, but its cylindrical body leaned forward slightly as if it was crestfallen.

“Beep. I answered master number three’s question, but he still treats me violently. It’s incomprehensible, incomprehensible. B-2 is very depressed.”

It seems like it treated my rhetorical question as an actual question.

“It’s true your phone uses more power than before.” Dr. Yu replied while using a soldering iron to perform precision work on the circuit board of Winnie’s phone. Both his hands were extremely steady as if he was holding a scalpel.

“I compensated it by adding a advanced polymer battery that uses the latest technology. Open the battery cover and see if it was replaced with a new one.”

I opened the back cover of the phone as I was told, and found that the battery had indeed been replaced. Its size had instead become smaller and the empty s.p.a.ce was used by Dr. Yu to add a second hardware system.

Dr. Yu sounded pleased with himself: “It might be small, but it holds three times more charge than the original, so your phone will last longer on standby. The battery was the most expensive component of the modification. Just remember, don’t throw your phone into fires.”

“I don’t think you can throw regular phones into a fire either.”

“Beep. Lithium batteries may explode in a fire.” B-2 stated.

“Your phone is different.” Dr. Yu said seriously, “The battery is the 4th generation polymer batteries. The benefits are its small size, but a negative is that it explodes in a fire. It’s the type of explosion where someone will definitely be injured.”

I still didn’t place much importance on it, “I think ordinary phone explosions will also injure people.”

Dr. Yu shook his head and pointed at my pocket with the hand that wasn’t holding the soldering iron, “Do you often keep your phone in your pocket?”

“That’s right.” I said as I slid the phone into the pocket of my jeans.

“Hmph, if it explodes in your pocket…” Dr. Yu paused, then said, “Then you should consider getting a s.e.x change surgery because you wouldn’t be able to be a man anymore.”

I was scared to the point I immediately pulled the phone out of my pocket.

“Dr. Yu, what’s wrong with you? I think you made a bomb, not a phone. How would I be able to use it now?”

“It’s not that big of a deal.” Dr. Yu consoled me, “I only told you the worst case scenario. As long as you don’t let it come into contact with a temperature over 800°C, which is the temperature of a normal fire, then it won’t explode. Even if you’re present at the scene of a fire, I guarantee the phone won’t explode as long as your body hasn’t caught on fire.”

“What if it explodes?”

“Then…” Dr. Yu paused a bit, “If it explodes, I’ll provide a free s.e.x-change surgery. If you had more serious injuries, you can also choose to become half-robot. I mean, that’s already the future of humanity.”

“You can save that kind of future for yourself. I don’t want to use it unless I test it first.”

I took out the battery from my phone and put it next to the stove, then I turned the fire up to the highest setting. I wanted to know what would happen to the battery when even your skin can only handle 3 seconds at this heat.

Dr. Yu didn’t stopped me and appeared to be quite confident in the battery he chose.

“Don’t let it touch the flames directly. As long as you put it to the side, you can leave it there for the whole day.”

It really didn’t explode. 35 minutes pa.s.sed and there wasn’t even a single bulge on the surface of the battery.

I could finally put the battery back into my phone with my mind at peace. It was probably hard for my phone to explode unless I was burned at the stake like Giordano Bruno.

If I was like Bruno and sentenced to be burned to death by the Roman Inquisition, then I would keep the phone in my pocket and make sure we all die!

Explode! I’ll at least have my d.i.c.k explode on your faces, ahahahaha~~~

As I was roasting the batteries, Dr. Yu finished upgrading Winnie’s phone and he handed it to me to bring it to her.

“Now it should have a quad-core and can satisfy Winnie’s needs.” Dr. Yu pulled out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, “Take the phone to her, I want to have a smoke.”

Dr. Yu had a addiction, but he never smoked in front of his patients, which was a commendable medical ethic in this day and age.

Among the Three Musketeers of Stanford University, the “Poison King” Klinger was Ai ShuQiao’s hardcore follower, while Fang Xin was a b.a.s.t.a.r.d who scams people. Only Dr. Yu, who had some peculiar hobbies of modifying humans, couldn’t be considered very evil.

It was a pity for him to be one of Ai ShuQiao’s subordinates.

Although Ai ShuQiao intentionally sent Dr. Yu over to me to show me that the people who serve her are not only evil villains, but also can do good deeds.

If I hadn’t spent some time with Dr. Yu beforehand, I wouldn’t have made a deal with Ai ShuQiao earlier and would have rejected her right away.

Ai ShuQiao needed my blood for drug research, which was a hard requirement, an item that must be included in the deal.

However, she didn’t really need me to infiltrate the Happy Science Cult to steal their calculation program, didn’t she already have a spy there?

It felt like Ai ShuQiao didn’t give up. As she said before, she wanted to transform me into a person more like her to prove that her influence was far greater than my father.

Making me go undercover was probably to test and hone my abilities and to check whether I was worthy of being nurtured any further.

Keep dreaming. I won’t be your lapdog even if you use your inheritance as bait. After completing this deal, I’ll draw a line in the sand with you. Neither Ai Mi nor I need you to raise us, I’ll find my own way to raise my sister.
