This is not how you drive a machine!

Chapter 104 Tan Tonglu's Choice
The weather is hot and humid and a bit stuffy.

Outside the garage of the Yunyu Machinery Factory, Tan Tonglu sat on a plastic chair similar to the one Virgil used, staring blankly at the venue.

Qing Jue's voice came: "How do you adjust the air compression? How many levels do you want?"

"3, not 4."

"OK, the setup is done, you can do the rest yourself."

After adjusting the spring damping and tire camber, Qingjue unfolded the car. Seeing that Tan Tonglu was still not getting up, he asked, "What's wrong?"

Tan Tonglu grabbed a handful of dust from the ground.

Is this where Zhou Yun developed the 'Catapult Start'?

The factory was shut down, the materials were custom-made in other provinces, there were no professional technicians to adjust them, and there was no chance to even conduct a few experiments...

He suddenly felt a gap.

"What are you thinking about? Are you being sentimental again?" Qingjue asked with a smile.

Tan Tonglu smiled bitterly and said, "I just didn't expect that I would leave Chiyue, and now I don't know where to go."

"Didn't that guy named Chen say he'd guarantee you'd make it to the S-League? Isn't it all up to you to just follow his instructions?"

Qing Jue smiled and said, "After so many days of hard work, the improvements are finally complete. Let's see if we can surpass Zhou Yun!"

"it is good."

Tan Tonglu looked up at the sky and slowly put on his helmet.

Although he didn't know where the road ahead was, he needed to move faster. He wanted to accomplish what Zhou Yun could accomplish.

Looking at Tan Tonglu's hesitation, Qingjue knew that this kid's "Why does the autumn wind make the painted fan sad" disease had recurred.

Really, how could I have such a contractor... So she spoke with a smile.

"Lin Yao said this is the holy land of 'Catapult Start'. Let's give it another name, 'Catapult Fried Chicken B...'"

Tan Tonglu rushed into the car and covered Qingjue's mouth before she could make any explosion sound.

"Woo~"

Qingjue bit Tan Tonglu's finger: "What?"

"Hurry up!"

……

After running for two hours, Tan Tonglu slowly stopped Qingjue.

Qingjue breathed a sigh of relief, his face flushed slightly.

Every time I turn a corner, it feels like I'm being squeezed hard, and when I exit the corner, it feels like I'm being squeezed out.

It's like a loach in a ditch, moving around in the wind.

She felt uncomfortable at first, but after getting used to it... she felt inexplicably refreshed, and she didn't know why.

"Qing Jue, Qing Jue?"

"Ah, ah!" Qing Jue said quickly, "I don't think there's any problem. The tire can still hold up for a few hours. I think the speed is fine this time!"

Tan Tonglu got out of the car, opened his laptop, and looked at the data on it carefully.

"Sure thing, Tan Tonglu, I told you, you'll be fine!"

Qing Jue put the car in the car, put his arm around Tan Tonglu's shoulder, pointed at the screen and said with a smile, "Look at the speed before and after braking into the corner, it's almost approaching Zhou Yun's drift data!"

“That’s just the turn…”

Tan Tonglu gave a wry smile, "After the special skill disappeared, the turbulence when exiting the corner was still too strong, which actually slowed down my speed."

Qingjue looked at the data above and sighed inwardly.

She understood that Tan Tonglu wanted to surpass Zhou Yun, but she always had her limits. After all, she was just a late-stage burst-type mecha girl.

Even among the later burst-type mecha girls, she is an outlier.

Where can I find a racing car that is so sturdy and strong?
"I……"

"It seems that we need to change the system."

"Zhou Yun's running style is not only innovative, but also fully adapted to the system. We also need to adapt to the system, so that it can be called a 'new running style'."

Tan Tonglu took out a talent seal [Swift Wind Escape] and said, "If it weren't for Zhou Yun, I wouldn't have noticed this seal."

"If he can spray out of the corner, why can't we?"

"Indeed, with this, we can wash away the air turbulence when turning." Qingjue nodded.

"Besides, we also have our powerful acceleration! This way we can rush forward in the early stages!"

Tan Tonglu then took out another talent: [Embroidered], which immediately made Qingjue's eyes widen.

This is not a skill used by the main No. 1, it is the standard skill for the No. 3 position.

[Encrusted]: When the mecha girl uses control skills, it will reduce the opponent's engine combustion efficiency and slightly enhance the effect of the talent skill, with a maximum stack of 30 layers.

"Qingjue, your gate skills cover the entire field, and you are naturally suitable for this seal."

"I've wanted to do this for a long time, but unfortunately I didn't have a place to put it before."

Tan Tonglu smiled and said, "With this engraving, combined with the bonus of talent, I can definitely reach full speed in the early stages!"

Qingjue thought about it, wouldn't it just squirt if he squeezed it...

After solving the running problem, Tan Tonglu sat on the plastic chair and breathed a sigh of relief.

I was thinking, catapult start...how should I deal with it.

Qing Jue brought a bowl of noodles with soybean paste: "The running method has been solved, what are you still thinking about?"

"The team, I wonder how Uncle Chen is doing."

……

In a bright reception room, Lin Yao and Chen Shanhe sat on the sofa waiting.

Seeing Lin Yao's somewhat impatient expression, Chen Shanhe smiled and said, "Be patient. You know, although Li Zhechen is difficult to deal with, but..."

"I'm just curious, what's wrong with your leg?"

Lin Yao tapped Chen Shanhe's calf with his hand, making a banging sound. "But if you mind, don't say it."

"It's a long story."

Chen Shanhe smiled and said, "To make a long story short, it really can't be completed in one sentence. I can only do it slowly..."

"What kind of nonsense literature is this?"

Lin Yao sneered.

"I'm just being polite and saying I don't want to say it!"

Suddenly both of them laughed.

"After I help you take down the convoy, how are you going to deal with Li Zhechen?"

Lin Yao scratched his head. He knew very well what kind of person his master was.

Back when they were in Leishan, his master decisively sold him out and let him take the blame. Fortunately, he ran away early, otherwise he would have spent the rest of his life in jail.

Later, his master found someone to take the blame and finally took over Leishan Machinery.

"Don't worry." Chen Shanhe said with a smile: "I am the boss of Chiyue. I know Chiyue's problems best. We are just casting a wide net now."

"After defeating Chi Yue in a head-on match, Li Zhechen will definitely not be able to withstand it."

Hearing this, Lin Yao smiled slightly.

After taking a sip of tea, Chen Shanhe suddenly missed the tea from Yun Yi’s team. That big bucket of iced black tea shocked him at the time.

At that time, he thought that the most important thing for Chiyue was investment and business, and everything could be negotiated.

But now he sees clearly that for a club, drivers are the real future.

After a while, the manager of the Cool City team came in.

"I didn't expect to see you here, the famous Chen Shanhe."

Tong Bing, the manager of Cool City, spoke in a sarcastic tone. Then he sat opposite Chen Shanhe and said with a smile.

"Sorry, our boss is unwell and can't come to see you."

Chen Shanhe smiled and said straight to the point: "I won't waste any words. I'll give you a foreign driver and a large sum of money. Do you want it or not?" Tong Bing narrowed his eyes.

"You guys at Cool City must have had a tough time these past two years. You lost your investors, and you've run out of drivers."

Chen Shanhe leaned on his crutches and said with a smile, "We were eliminated in the first round of the S-League last year. Although we managed to advance to the first round this year, our chances of making it past the second round are slim."

Tong Bing's face darkened as he listened to Chen Shanhe's narration.

Indeed, the development of the Cool City team is getting worse day by day.

"When I came in just now, I heard your driver talking about wanting to transfer..."

Chen Shanhe changed the subject and sighed, "It's not easy for you as a manager. Holding up a team that's about to go bankrupt, just think about it..."

"If it weren't for you guys, Chiyue, our Cool City wouldn't be in this state today?" Tong Bing interrupted him and asked, "Who is the foreign driver you're going to send?"

Hearing this, Chen Shanhe laughed: "Tan Tonglu, plus Qingjue, do you want it?"

“Tan, Tan…”

After confirming that this was the name Chen Shanhe mentioned, Tong Bing stood up in surprise: "You want to send Chiyue's number one to Cool City?"

Although Tan Tonglu lost the race, he is still a heavy stone weighing on the heads of Jingyun teams, especially small teams like his that were eliminated in one round.

Moreover, his reputation has soared recently, and it seems that he is taking off again.

Chiyue actually wants to give this kind of driver to Kucheng?
"Yes." Chen Shanhe took a sip of tea and said, "How about an additional eight million investment? Can it solve your urgent needs?"

Tong Bing stood up and hesitated for a moment: "I'll go discuss it with the boss."

After saying that, he turned and left the reception room.

After waiting for a while, he pushed the door open again and said, "I'm sorry, both of you. Our boss doesn't agree. Please go back."

"Why don't you agree?" Lin Yao stood up. "Isn't your team going to fail?"

Chen Shanhe patted Lin Yao's shoulder and said, "Forget it, let's go."

After leaving the Cool City convoy.

Chen Shanhe tapped the ground with his cane, his tone a little irritable: "Li Zhechen is really quick to act."

Hearing this, Lin Yao smiled bitterly.

"Tan Tonglu..."

Chen Shanhe sighed. For a moment he didn't know where Tan Tonglu should go.

Teams like Chongguang and Feijing may be willing to accept it, but that is not something that can be settled with just a sum of money.

He just wanted Tan Tonglu to become a foreign driver and was not prepared to sacrifice both the man and the driver.

……

"Feng Ying! Stand at attention!"

Yinling was wearing a very loose security uniform and a Yunyi team armband.

The wide trouser legs are layered at the ankles, and the delicate curves of the legs can be vaguely seen.

She got a safety helmet from somewhere and put it on her head. She held a big speaker in her hand and pointed it at Feng Ying's ear.

"stand at attention!"

Feng Ying snapped to attention.

At this time, she didn't know where she got a security coat from. It looked like a long skirt when she put it on, and the white stockings on her legs looked snow-white in the sunlight.

"Why do you insist on staying at your post!"

Yin Ling shouted into the loud speaker, and the earth-shaking sound made Feng Ying feel dizzy.

"Because we have to hold our ground!"

Hearing this, Yin Ling said angrily: "Where is the commander? Add the word commander at the end! Do you understand?"

Feng Ying's eyes swirled around in circles: "Yes, sir!"

"We're holding our ground! Sir! Wait, why am I calling you sir?"

"Hehe!" Yin Ling said with a smile, "Because I'm the 'Security Captain' now! Zhou Yun said so himself yesterday! Feng Ying, now you have to obey my orders!"

Hearing this, Feng Ying's pupils trembled: "Nonsense!"

"Zhou Yun clearly arranged for me the day before yesterday! I'm the security captain!"

The two little ones immediately started fighting for the loud speaker. After a while, they were both out of breath and squatted on the steps of the Linglu office building, took out yogurt and started drinking.

"It seems like he's going to a competition." Yinling sighed.

"Can you handle Zhou Yun's running style?"

"If Sister Lingyu can drift, why can't I?" Yinling said, holding the yogurt bottle and looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, "I also want to let the sisters of the Yuehua tribe know how powerful I am!"

Hearing this, Feng Ying was silent for a moment: "You'd better do your job as the security captain first, otherwise the milk tea will be wasted."

"The captain is mine!" Yin Ling snorted, then asked, "By the way, what does a security guard do?"

"Just, just..."

Feng Ying crossed his arms, rolled his eyes and thought for a moment: "It should be to catch thieves."

"Catch a thief?"

"Yes, that's right! Catch the thief!" Feng Ying nodded vigorously: "Any thief who wants to enter Yunyi must be caught!"

"But what is a thief?"

"Ah..." Feng Ying was stumped by this question.

"You do not understand?"

"A thief is... someone with rat-like eyes, always looking around, and seems timid, right?" Feng Ying thought for a moment and said, "Thieves in anime are all like this."

Yinling thought for a moment and pointed at Tan Tonglu who was wandering nearby.

"Is that what he looks like?"

……

Tan Tonglu looked at Linglu's office building and paced back and forth.

Although the weather was hot and humid, he was reluctant to enter the building, his steps were unsteady and hesitant.

This is different from the last invitational competition.

Do you really want to join the Yunyi team and become driver number 3?
He understood Zhou Yun's configuration. In fact, the role he could play was limited. What Yun Yi lacked was a powerful gatekeeper who could control the situation, not him and Qingjue.

Moreover, instead of joining the Yun Yi team, he actually wanted to have a fair fight with Zhou Yun.

It’s like No. 1 versus No. 1, and after a passionate fight, they win back the glory that belongs to them.

"Tan Tonglu, are you going in or not? You're so annoying!"

Qing Jue narrowed her eyes, shielding her eyes from the scorching midday sun with her hands, and tapped the ground with her toes. "You're not a young wife meeting your parents-in-law, so go in and talk!"

Tan Tonglu took a deep breath and stopped.

Yes, now probably only Yunyi Racing Team can use him, why is he still hesitating?
"S-League..."

He was about to walk into Yun Yi's convoy, but stopped.

Zhou Yun, we can be friends off the court, but we are destined to be rivals on the court!

"Forget it, Qingjue, let's go back..."

Before he could finish, he heard a crisp bell ringing. Yin Ling and Feng Ying rushed out from the left and right, carrying Tan Tonglu and rushed into the office building.

"Sister Feng! We caught a thief!"

"Yeah! Tie him up!"

The two little ones noisily sent Tan Tonglu upstairs.

"Qing Jue! Save me!"

"I'm going!"

Qing Jue rushed into the office building of Yun Yi's team and said, "Silver-haired Bell, Yellow-haired Mouse! You two, stop right there, sister!!"
