Two Cities: I am building a mecha in Pi City

Regarding the steam robot Blitzcrank, Li Lin only came up with the idea after Victor mentioned the need to improve the alchemy technology robot in the ditch area.

Blitzcrank is no ordinary robot. It gained a "soul" after Victor implanted it with the priceless Primordial Crystal unearthed in Shurima.

Blitzcrank is not only more efficient than ordinary robots, but also awakens the ability to learn and innovate through repetitive work day after day.

It can deduce and understand the daily instructions that are input to it. It is not limited to working in the alchemical poison dump in the ditch, and even communicates frequently with the citizens of Zaun.

It can be said that under the influence of the original crystal, Blitzcrank has completely become an individual with an independent soul, not just a steel robot without emotions.

Although he knew that the original crystal was very important to the Shell people, Li Lin was not prepared to disrupt the original timeline of this world and prevent the birth of Blitzcrank.

First of all, Victor's original crystals were approved for research from the academy. Even if they were not given to Blitzcrank, these original crystals would be used by other scientists in other projects.

For some scientists who are likely to destroy the integrity of the original crystal, it would be better to have it as a Hex core...

Secondly, the idea of ​​helping the Shell people is too far away for Li Lin at this stage.

This is not a problem that can be solved by asking the council to stop this kind of behavior by proposing that mining the original crystal is killing another race.

What's more, today's tough confrontation with the congressmen has pushed him to the forefront.

Not only that, if the study of the original crystal is prohibited, the interests of the Philos family will be affected first.

Li Lin's development in Piltover has only just started for a month. He doesn't want to have just gained the support of the Gray Lady and push her to the opposite side that is hostile to him...

In Victor's office.

After Li Lin expressed his suggestion, Victor excitedly wrote an application to apply for a primitive crystal from the academy.

Although his current status is only an assistant coach, with the help of Heimerdinger, it should not be a problem to obtain a primitive crystal.

The premise is that he must produce results.

In order not to disturb him, Li Lin said goodbye and left Piltover University.

Time couldn't afford to be wasted, and there was still a mess waiting for him to deal with.

I randomly found a carriage that provided public services at the entrance of the college, gave the driver two silver wheels, and asked him to take me back to Gila Mann's house.

Next is the time to suffer the wrath of Lady Karina...

Some time later, the carriage stopped at the side door of Giraman's house.

After saying hello to the servant, Li Lin quietly slipped into the main house and walked into the living room.

The hall was empty at this time, and the pendulum and hands of the huge Levi's clock in the corner were ticking, giving him the illusion of a countdown to a storm that was about to come.

Mrs. Karina doesn't seem to be at home?

Li Lin raised his eyebrows and breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, a thought suddenly came to his mind:

Why do I always feel guilty as a thief...

He climbed up to the second floor with gentle steps, but still saw no one, not even the daily cleaning servants were at work.

Before Li Lin could walk to the third floor, a small hand appeared quietly from behind and patted him on the shoulder.

At the same time, a familiar and playful girl's voice sounded in his ears: "What are you doing? Sneaky..."

"——Hiss!" Li Lin took a breath, grabbed the warm little hand on his shoulder and turned around, "Kate, do you want to scare me to death?"

Caitlin raised her pretty eyebrows lightly and said in a joking tone: "You haven't answered my question yet, why are you sneaking around when you get home?"

"Don't you know the specific reason yet?" Li Lin let go of her little hand, feeling helpless, "How is your mother doing?"

"She, she is angry." Caitlin's expression and tone clearly gave people a joking look.

"I'm serious, Kate." Li Lin stared at her smiling eyes, with a little doubt in his heart, "Madam is not angry with me?"

"Oh, you still don't feel relieved when I'm here?"

Caitlin crossed her arms across her chest, shifted her center of gravity slightly forward, got a little closer to Li Lin, and lowered her voice:

"Mom is actually still angry. It's just that she's not angry about your lack of cooperation in the meeting, but because you didn't tell her your thoughts in advance, leaving her unprepared."

tell her……

How could she agree?

Li Lin's expression was a little bitter.

Caitlin seemed to see what he was thinking, "Actually, mom is not as ruthless as you think. She did this entirely out of political and family interests.

"The fact that I don't agree with her approach has not changed, but as for Parliament...you know, some things have to be done."

Li Lin scratched his head, "I remember you said this morning that Madam did something wrong..."

"That's because mom didn't want us to think too much, so she didn't tell us her original plan." Caitlin sighed.

"Just now when you didn't come back, I was chatting with my mother. She said that she originally wanted to unite with other congressmen publicly, but in private she would ask Chief Grayson to pay more attention to her and ask her to try to restrain her men and not make trouble in the bottom city. There was too much trouble.

"Although there is still a conflict with Di Cheng, this is the best result she can do... I didn't expect you to dare to openly oppose the members at the parliamentary meeting, but she still supported you. Who made you? He’s part of our family~~”

Caitlin stretched out her onion-like slender fingers and poked Li Lin on the cheek, "Mom trusts you very much. You can't let her down, otherwise the entire Gila Mann family will suffer."

Li Lin grabbed her finger and sighed, "Of course I know this. Just like I said at the meeting, since I dare to say this, I have the confidence to do it."

Caitlin's eyes narrowed into crescent moons, and the corners of her cherry-pink lips slightly raised to the sides, "I believe you."

After a pause, she continued: "But trust is trust. You'd better not appear in front of mom too often recently. She said she'll get angry when she sees you."

Li Lin smiled helplessly, "I am also planning to discuss the Hex Energy Crystal with Madam..."

"You don't have to worry about this. I've already told my mother. She said she would go to the Philos family to negotiate on this matter. You only need to be responsible for what you are responsible for...

"Oh, by the way, one more thing, as long as the Gila Mann family's liquidity chain is not broken, you can use the money at home as you wish, but you will have to double the compensation in the future."

Li Lin was overjoyed, "Really?!"

"Of course." Caitlin's expression was a little proud, "I begged my mother to help you and she agreed to this. Shouldn't you be grateful to me? For example, what you promised me last night..."

Before Caitlin could finish her words, Li Lin excitedly hugged her into his arms.

"You are really my caring little cotton-padded jacket, Kate!"

Caitlin, who was stunned by Li Lin's move, was stunned for several seconds, and her delicate little face turned red instantly.

She pushed Li Lin away in panic, turned around quickly, and while arranging her clothes, she cursed:

"Bah...Who, who is your little cotton-padded jacket? You are so shameless..."

As she said this, another strange feeling emerged in Caitlin's heart.

This feeling... seems pretty good?
