The Urban Dao Child.

Chapter 48 - Accident.



Yang Dao and Ray rode a lower-class high-end car. Yang Dao spoke as soon as he sat inside, "Senior Ray, this car, did you have it modified by the vendor?"

Ray was surprised by his question and nodded as he kept looking at the road. He asked, "Not many people know about this. How did you find out?"

Yang Dao smiled and spoke, "This model is supposed to have a ground clearance of 170-175 mm while your car is 180-185 mm. If I am not wrong this is because of the custom suspension system. And from the sound, the vehicle produced when you turned the key. I can hear a turbocharger. The gear shift is also smoother." 

Ray thought as if Yang Dao himself tweaked with his car. He was shocked but recently he has grown used to this kid's perverted behavior and recovered quickly. He smiled wryly as he said, "Did you work at the shop I bought this from?"

Yang Dao chuckled, "No, I just worked as a mechanic at a garage in Bell city. So I learned all this."

Ray nodded and said, "Then why didn't I see a car in your garage?"

Yang Dao held his head in exasperation, "Don't tell anyone about this okay. The day I moved to sapphire lake residency, Sister Yun had 5 cars inside the garage. I wanted to avoid being high-profile so when on the way Sister Yun showed me the vehicles on a tab. I hurriedly asked her to take them away. Asked her for a bike, she got me 'Silence', now you take a guess what cars she selected for me. Modest of them all was customized Hurricane XGT."

Ray sucked in a cold breath. He said, "Why do I feel like you have picked up the skill of showing off."

Yang Dao shook his head as he shifted his attention to the scenery outside as Ray kept introducing him to the happening places. This was the first time Yang Dao has came out in the city. Usually, he would go to college and come back straight back home or it would be him flying to meet Feng Yun via helicopter. 

He also asked Ray some questions about the places that caught his attention. Suddenly something clicked to Yang Dao and he said, "Senior Ray, you are also from Computer operations right?"

Ray nodded, the boy continued, "May I ask what is your graduation project?"

Ray replied, "Real-time translation app. Recently jewel nation's tourism is booming so I thought this would be a good way to earn money and also increase the ease of convenience for the tourists." Yang Dao did not reply but fell into thought.

A final project is a mandatory project for every computer operations student. They are all asked to design a model software program. If the software meets the standards the student is allowed to pass and will be provided with a recommendation later in case they want to pursue higher education. 

Yang Dao spoke, "Senior Ray, what do you want to do after graduation?"

Ray replied casually, "I am done with education brother, the number of brain cells that died in these past few years is enough. I will find a job and maybe keep on riding."

Yang Dao asked, "Will you work with me? I plan to do something. Though the salary will be a little low at the start I will increase it in the future. What do you think?" he was a little embarrassed to ask all this after all he did not have any capital of his own yet. All he had was 3 million, but that would only allow him to register a company. 

Ray did not think much and asked, "When do I start working, Boss?" how could he let go of an opportunity to work with 'YOUNG MASTER FENG YUN.' 

Yang Dao scratched the back of his head and said, "I will ask Sister Yun to register me a start-up company first. Then I will talk to you further. Will that be okay?"

Ray chuckled, "As you command, Boss. Though, I have a question, what is the companies direction?"

Yang Dao replied in all earnest, "The first step is to develop something good enough that the people can take it as a first choice. After all, crypto nation tech costs a lot. I plan for a series of products to be combined inside a mobile assistant." 

Ray raised his eyebrows. He was not a virgin in the market. He has dabbled in the stock market earlier, so he knew what Yang Dao was aiming for, the mobile phone market. Seemingly one of the biggest money cycles in the nation. The population of the nation was 80 million, and the annual mobile sale was 1.5 billion. 

Even if they stay at the bottom it will be good but who was Yang Dao and who was backing him? One of the annual financial magazines last year reported that Feng Yun had so much wealth that she can rent out the whole country for a month. Can you imagine the power she had? 

Ray was about to say something when they heard a loud screeching sound followed by a crash. He floored the brakes and stopped the vehicle immediately. Fortunately, the two of them were wearing their seatbelts. 

Outside, it seemed as if the vehicle lost control and crashed into the side pole. Yang Dao hurriedly got out of his car. The surrounding people also rushed forward to check the situation. The car was badly crushed, in the driver's seat, an old lady laid unconscious. Her head was cushioned by the airbag, but the door was crooked and people could not open it. 

Suddenly someone yelled, "Get away the fuel is leaking." this exclamation triggered a panicked reaction among the people and they all scurried away. Ray also came back to his own car and was about to sit in when he recalled Yang Dao was not by his side. Turning his head he found Yang Dao still yanking on the car door with all his might.

Ray was immediately flustered he screamed, "Dao, getaway, it can explode."

Yang Dao gave up his grip on the car door. The surrounding people breathed a sigh of relief as they saw this, but this feeling was short-lived. Yang Dao rolled up his sleeves, held onto the already open windowpane with his right hand, while his left hand held onto the vertical edge. Placing his left foot on the body of the car he inhaled deeply.

Then he pulled with a soft cry, "HUP" the door was pulled open. Yang Dao reacted quickly and tore off the airbag. He leaned inside and undid the seatbelt. Carefully carried the old lady out and walked to Ray's car. He said, "Senior Ray, open the door, we take her to the hospital."

The boy reacted, opened the door, and helped Yang Dao pacing the old lady inside. The two rushed to the nearest hospital. On the way to the hospital, Yang Dao called the police to inform them about the situation. By the time they reached there a policeman and a policewoman were waiting for them. 

The doctors took the old lady for treatment while Yang Dao and Ray made transcripts. Ray wanted to pay the bill but Yang Dao stopped him, he paid the bill himself. The policeman saw that Yang Dao was very calm for his age and asked, "Little one, were you not afraid of the vehicle exploding?"

Yang Dao smiled, "There was no sparking in the wiring system so how would it explode?" his reply shocked the three people. It was true that 'normally' cars don't catch fire when they crash but that doesn't mean they 'won't ever' catch fire. But the reason behind an explosion in a car crash is mostly the sparking in the onboard electronic system or if the car is creating friction with the asphalt during the crash which may ignite the fuel.

The police were surprised with the observation power of the youngster in front of them. A few minutes later the doctor came out of the emergency ward and said, "The patient lost consciousness due to hypertension leading to an accident. It may be her luck but she escaped with just a few bruises. We will now keep her here for observation and run a thorough check-up."

Yang Dao nodded his head, thanked the doctor. Then after asking the police if they can leave the hospital, the two people left. Yang Dao's benevolent act of rescue was now already uploaded on the internet. Yet the target of all this was busy comparing bikes. Ray took him to the store where he got his bike. Yang Dao started comparing them all with silence. 

He asked Ray for advice when he himself could not decide which one should select. Yang Dao spent 5000 on this bike. The shopkeeper gave him a matching blue-colored helmet and gloves. Then Yang Dao bought himself a spandex jersey as well. Then the two people left the shop with a new bike in hand. Yang Dao asked Ray to lead as he followed his car. They parted when Yang Dao arrived home.
