Reboot: Mechanic

Chapter 89 Fake Identification

Isaac Aaronax's suggestion astounded Shi Tian dearly. It was clear that he had not thought about going outside the walls of Gearits City this early on.

However, he was aware that going into the wilderness would be the best course of action.

Gearits City was simply too safe for the people to feel any danger. Like even if murder was common, no one would actively search for people to kill.

Unless one was offended, going their way to kill someone for no reason was implausible.

Of course, there are still some exceptions who love to kill for fun simply because they can.

"So what do you think about my suggestion?" Isaac Aaronax asked again. "If you are afraid of dying, then we can also do it in the training facility. Just that you won't be able to raise your alertness or perception much."

"Is that a provocation?" Shi Tian raised an eyebrow and asked.

Afraid of death?

What a hilarious joke!

If he was truly afraid of death, then he wouldn't have entered Gearits City in the first place. Instead, he would be at the camp outside the walls or a deserted place, staying low and waiting for death naturally.

"I'm not afraid of death, Master Isaac." Shi Tian then responded, showing a firm and determined expression.

"If you're not afraid of death, then what's with the silence?" Isaac Aaronax enquired.

'Because I don't have an identification card or barcode scan to re-enter Gearits City if I were to leave.' That was what Shi Tian wanted to say aloud, but decided against it.

The matter regarding him bribing an inspection guard to enter the city should not be revealed to anyone.

Once that matter was revealed, everyone involved would be implicated as well. And that includes the inspection guard as well. Hence, not a single wise person would reveal this matter to anyone.

Bribing for entry seemed to be common as long as the money was sufficient, but there was also an unspoken hidden rule that everyone must follow and that was to keep their mouth shut.

As Shi Tian remained silent, Isaac Aaronax was somewhat confused but decided to continue his suggestion.

"Anyway, if you aren't afraid of venturing into the wilderness, then I'll prepare a set of fake identification cards for you. We wouldn't want you to be exposed in the open right away, so the fake identification card would be used to conceal you."

It was as if someone was singing something holy for Shi Tian when he heard Isaac Aaronax's suggestion.

"I see, then I shall await your arrangement, Master Isaac." Shi Tian gave a slight bow.

Isaac Aaronax was slightly taken aback when he saw Shi Tian becoming decisive again. Just a moment before he seemed to be wavering, but now he seemed to be in excitement.

Nevertheless, Isaac Aaronax still nodded his head and told Shi Tian to take a rest for a few days until he got the fake identification card ready for him.

"Alright, you can take this equipment home to practice for a while. And here is the blueprint for the Light Beam, so make sure no one else could see it. The Light Beam blueprint is an invention of mine." Isaac Aaronax said, pointing at the box on top of the desk.

Shi Tian nodded his head.

"Thank you, Master Isaac." He then held the box and nearly stumbled due to the heavyweight. The box looked small, but the weight was insane.

Turning around, he saw Isaac Aaronax flashing a cheeky smile, a clear remark that he had done it on purpose.

"Whoops, I forgot to mention that they weigh quite a bit, so you should be careful about the distribution of your strength to carry it." Isaac Aaronax laughed.

Shi Tian squinted his eyes, clearly unamused with his prank.

"How childish for a person who proclaimed themselves as an old bone." Shi Tian jeered, using his back to open the door and leave.

It was only a few seconds later did Isaac Aaronax come to reality.

"This brat… he dares to call me childish when I was being so generous? Doesn't he know how valuable a blueprint was and the fact that I was even willing to take it out to teach him?" Isaac Aaronax harrumphed and stomped his feet like a little kid.

Alas, Shi Tian had left the scene already to witness such a scene.

He was having trouble carrying the box as he struggled to make his way toward the receptionist area. The box was technically blocking his line of sight, prompting him to not know the direction he was walking in.

While walking, Shi Tian suddenly heard a familiar voice.

"Nathan, are you alright?" It was Mary, who seemed to be on break, and noticed Shi Tian carrying a heavy box.

Exhausted, Shi Tian placed the box down and flashed a bitter smile. "Yeah, I'm fine. It's just that the box Master Isaac gave me was a bit heavy."

"A bit heavy?" Mary raised an eyebrow, and then subconsciously glanced at the box and Shi Tian's forehead which had some beads of sweat dripping down.

"Are you sure it's just a bit heavy?" She then asked, looking at him with a funny expression.

"No, it's heavy and I'm struggling. There, you got the response you wanted to hear." Shi Tian panted heavily and said.

"I didn't mean to shame you, Nathan." Mary hurriedly explained, worried that he might have misunderstood her intention.

"No worries, I'm not ashamed. It's a fact that the box seemed to be weighed weirdly and was causing me to exert most of my strength to even lift it up." Shi Tian shook his head, retrieved a napkin from his pocket, and wiped his sweat.

Since he was always sweating a lot during the training, he brought a napkin with him all the time.

Meanwhile, Mary was starting to become curious and pointed at the box.

"Do you mind if I open it and check on the content?" She turned to him and asked. It was rude to open someone else's inventory without permission, so she wanted to get his permission before confirming her suspicions.
