Two Cities: I am building a mecha in Pi City

The evening bell in the Zodiac basement rang, and the dim sunset had merged into half of the coastline of the sky.

Li Lin tidied up his image, and under the arrangement of Mrs. Karina, he and Jace went to the reception hall of the side house to entertain the guests.

However, neither of them liked this kind of aristocratic social situation, so they stood together in a corner where no one was paying attention to fish and chat.

"Hey, you are finally willing to comb your messy hair." Jess stared at Li Lin's hair and joked in a teasing tone.

"Can you please tell me that you, a greasy head who applies hair fixative every day, have the nerve to criticize me?" Li Lin deliberately showed a look of disgust.

"Tch, there are quite a few girls in the academy who are obsessed with me and chatting with me..."

"Then when I chatted with you, I was scared away by your rudeness?"

"What you said..." Jace raised his eyebrows, as if he was right, his face darkened slightly, "Am I usually like this?"

Li Lin looked at him with a look of pity, "What are you like on weekdays? Don't you have a bit of a berserker in your heart?"

"Uh, Barsaka...what is it?" Jess had a flash of doubt in his eyes.

This kid Li Lin likes to make up some weird words every day that people can't understand.

"It always feels like it's not a good word..."

"I told you that you don't have a clue, but you really don't know yourself." Li Lin sighed helplessly, "Don't you feel that your social circle is getting smaller and smaller?"

Jace snorted, "Why do you need such a big social circle? Except for you and Victor, the other guys in the academy are a bunch of losers."

"Not everyone is a genius like you... You should slow down and let them catch up with your ideas."

Li Lin advised earnestly, but Jace did not intend to change himself.

"They don't understand such a simple concept, how can they still have the nerve to talk about being scientists?"

He curled his lips, a look of disdain on his face.

After a few pauses, Jace sighed, "Forget it, don't talk about it. We can't let this ruin our good mood."

Your temper is really more stubborn than an ox, and it is exactly the same as described in the background...

Li Lin twitched the corner of his mouth and changed the subject, "Okay, forget it if you don't want to talk... What gift are you planning to give Kate tonight?"

An excited expression appeared on Jace's face when he talked about this.

"The master key I recently made can easily open most of the locks in Pi City, even the Hex treasure chest."

Ah this...

Are you planning to let Caitlin change her profession to become a thief?

Also, is it really appropriate to give something like this at a coming-of-age ceremony? !

Li Lin's face was full of black lines, and he was speechless at Jace's lack of emotional intelligence.

"Uh...it's good, but you can't make this kind of thing randomly."

"Of course, I'm not stupid." Jace shook his head, "Even if I wanted to apply for a patent for mass production of this thing, the academy and the Piltover police wouldn't agree."

The two chatted for a while, until Jace saw a familiar figure.

"Hey Li Lin, look, isn't that Victor?"

Li Lin looked towards the door of the living room in the direction he was pointing. A lean man with a cane and well-dressed looked around the busy hall with some embarrassment.

"Let's go, let's go there."

Jace waved to Li Lin happily, but he grabbed him in time, "Wait a moment!"

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"Who is that?"

Li Lin pointed at a girl who was also wearing a red and white exquisite evening gown with an obvious academic style, slightly dark skin, and a pair of bronze-rimmed glasses on her face.

With an expression of joy on her face, she walked to Victor and chatted with him for a few words, and then his nervous expression relaxed a bit.

"Skye, she is Victor's assistant now. You can't even recognize her, right?" Jess glanced at Li Lin in surprise.

"That's Skye?!" A hint of surprise appeared on Li Lin's face.

Because he often went to the academy to study with Victor, Li Lin was quite impressed by Skye, who was also born in Zaun and was the same age as him.

The uncontrollable admiration in her eyes can be felt by even a person who is insensitive to emotions.

It's a pity that Victor focuses all his attention on scientific research and inventions every day, completely ignoring the girl next to him who has special feelings for him.

Today, Skye dressed up in such a beautiful way that even Li Lin could not recognize him, probably just to attract Victor's attention...

"I think we'd better not go there..."

Li Lin grabbed Jace, who was still about to go to them, and shook his head at him.

"Why?"

Jace is also a blockhead when it comes to emotions, or in other words, he doesn't care about the relationship between men and women at all, and he doesn't understand Li Lin's intentions at all.

Li Lin resisted the desire to complain in his heart, "Are you going to be a light bulb?"

"The light bulb...is the light bulb you invented that requires alternating current to light up?" Jess scratched his cheek, "What's the weird point of being a light bulb?"

Zhuo, it’s really hard to communicate with you!

Li Lin took a deep breath and suppressed the desire to hit someone, "Skye likes Victor, can't you tell?"

Hearing what he said, Jess rubbed his chin and looked at Victor with a scrutinizing look.

After a moment, a look of surprise flashed across his face, "Eh? It seems so..."

"So let's not disturb them."

Just as Li Lin finished speaking, a familiar female voice sounded beside them.

"May the gears turn in the right direction, Jace, and Mr. Li Lin."

The two of them turned around at the same time and saw a woman wearing white as the main color, supplemented by yellow and black accessories, and a string of eye-catching crystal necklaces on her slender neck, standing three or four steps away from them.

She was holding a transparent glass goblet containing champagne in her hand, with a polite and indifferent smile on her face.

None other than Mel Myrdalda.

"May the gears turn in the right direction, Congressman Myrdalda." Li Lin immediately calmed down his expression and greeted politely.

"I told you, just call me Mel."

Mel's eyes briefly stayed on Li Lin, and then moved to Jace.

"Mel, why are you here so early?"

Jace's rather affectionate name for Mel made Li Lin stunned.

What's happening here?

"I'm considered a young man, so I can't come here at the same time as those old guys." Mel covered his mouth and chuckled, with a dignified and elegant demeanor.

Immediately, she spoke to the two of them in a teasing tone, but more importantly to Jace:

"Congressman Gila Mann asked you to entertain guests. Is this your work attitude?"

"Hey, Mel, what you said is wrong..."

Jess smiled and chatted with Mel. Both of them intentionally or unintentionally ignored Li Lin, who was beside him and was speechless in shock. The content of the conversation became increasingly ambiguous.

Even the distance has become much closer, almost touching each other.

If this was not a less eye-catching corner, perhaps the eyes of the guests who had arrived at the reception hall would be attracted to them.

Their behavior and behavior are exactly what a couple would do...

Li Lin did not say hello, and kept silently away from the two people who had dealt a heavy blow to his "young" heart.

It looks like Jess has hooked up with Mel.

Plus Victor, who was having a heated chat with Skye on the other side.

Li Lin suddenly discovered that among the three of them, he was the only one without a female companion...

The clown is myself! !
