Chapter 97 Safety! It's fucking safe!

After being collectively mocked by the Netizens in his live stream, Li Jiajun suppressed a belly full of pent-up anger and shut down the stream with a dark face.

He felt that his sincere heart had been thrown onto the ground and trampled over and over again by this group of troublemakers who loved to watch the chaos.

'I am clearly genuinely repentant and decided to dedicate myself to the absolutely safe civilian field, so why does no one believe me?' he thought, speechless. 'This generation of Netizens is hopeless, completely hopeless; they have absolutely no basic trust.'

Sitting in his empty office, the more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

No, talk is cheap.

He had to bring out something real, use facts to slap these people in the face, and let them know that he, Li Jiajun, was determined this time to become a "People's Toy Craftsman"!

Thinking of this, he pulled himself together, opened his computer, and created a new folder named "elderly joy - Absolutely Safe Version".

Since it's an elderly mobility scooter, what is the core requirement?

Safety!

And damn it, safety!

Li Jiajun wrote these two big words heavily on the whiteboard.

He decided that this design would discard all flashy things and carve the word "safety" into every part of this vehicle.

"First of all, it must be stable. Elderly people have mobility issues; if they slip and fall on a slightly sloped or slippery road, that would be a big problem."

He muttered to himself and began searching for relevant technical information online. But after looking around, he either felt the technology was too ordinary or not extreme enough.

Irritated, he closed the webpage and casually clicked on a video recommended by the system, preparing to relax his mind.

The title of the video was — "Animal World: Masters of Natural Camouflage".

"Perfect, let's look at these little animals to cultivate my sentiments and find inspiration. Nature is the best teacher, after all." Li Jiajun muttered, restarting his live stream and changing the title to "Learning from Nature with the Streamer to Create Miracles".

He wanted the Netizens to witness the whole process, so they could see how pure and harmless his source of inspiration was this time.

As soon as the live stream opened, tens of thousands of Netizens who had heard the news flooded in.

"Yo, the Streamer is live again? Have you thought it through? Are you planning to build a Gundam?"

"What Gundam? It's clearly an interstellar warship!"

Li Jiajun ignored these comments, aimed the camera at the computer screen, and explained with a serious face: "family, today we are going to find wisdom in nature. Look at these little animals; in order to survive, they have unlocked so many incredible skills. We must learn from this spirit and apply it to our 'elderly joy' to benefit the elderly!"

On the screen, the documentary happened to be showing a gecko crawling rapidly on a smooth glass wall as if it were on flat ground.

The narrator introduced with a magnetic voice: "On the gecko's feet, there are millions of microscopic bristles, which allow it to use intermolecular forces, also known as Van der Waals forces, to firmly adhere to any object's surface..."

Li Jiajun's eyes were fixed intently on the gecko's feet.

As he watched, his gaze gradually became dull, as if his soul had been sucked out, and he froze there without moving.

When the Netizens in the live stream saw this familiar scene, they instantly exploded.

"Holy crap! This look! This expression! I'm familiar with this!"

"It's here, it's here! The signature segment! The Streamer is about to have an epiphany again!"

"It's over! Why do I have a bad feeling about this... Is he eyeing this gecko?"

Just as the comments were scrolling wildly, the familiar and pleasant notification sound rang in Li Jiajun's ears.

Ding!

【You observed the microscopic structure of the gecko's feet, combined it with Van der Waals force theory, and gained insight into the essence of intermolecular forces! You have achieved an epiphany regarding the manufacturing process of the 【Van der Waals Force Adsorption All-Terrain Tire】!】

A huge torrent of complex knowledge instantly flooded into his mind.

A few seconds later, Li Jiajun came back to his senses. He slapped his thigh hard, his face full of the ecstasy of finding the truth.

"That's it! This is it! Use this technology on the tires, and let alone slippery roads, even if you drive it up a wall, it won't fall off! This safety level is simply maxed out!" he shouted excitedly at the camera.

The Netizens in the live stream were completely numb.

"Up... up a wall? Streamer, are you sure this is an elderly joy, and not Spider-Man's war vehicle?"

"I fucking knew it! I knew it would be like this! What happened to the safety we agreed on?"

"This isn't safety; this is about to rub the traffic police's common sense of physics into the ground!"

Li Jiajun recorded the "Van der Waals force tire" with satisfaction and continued watching the documentary.

Soon, the scene switched to a vast desert, where a camel was walking calmly under the scorching sun.

Narrator: "The reason why the camel is called the Ship of the Desert is not only because of its great endurance, but also because of the hump on its back. The hump does not store water, but a large amount of fat. When needed, this fat can be broken down to provide the camel with lasting energy and water..."

Li Jiajun's gaze was once again attracted by the high-rising hump.

He touched his chin, deep in thought.

'That's right, for an elderly mobility scooter, range is also a big problem. What if it runs out of power halfway and leaves the elderly on the road? How unsafe that would be? It must have super strong range capability!'

The Netizens in the live stream looked at his thoughtful expression, feeling their scalps go numb.

"Don't... don't do it, Streamer! I beg you! Spare that camel! It's just a child!"

"I'm already starting to get scared... I can almost see an elderly joy with two huge humps on its back, speeding through the Sahara Desert..."

"It's over, here it comes again, that familiar look..."

Ding!

【You studied the hump structure of the camel that stores energy, combined it with energy density theory, and achieved an epiphany regarding the 【High-Density Organic Energy Block Storage and Intelligent Power Consumption Management System】!】

Li Jiajun slapped his thigh hard again and announced excitedly: "Solved! The range problem is also solved! With this technology, charge it once, and let alone running ten or eight laps around Baishui City, you could even drive it from Eastern Country to Europe and still have power to spare! It will absolutely never leave the elderly stranded halfway!"

The comments section fell into a long silence.

After a while, a slow comment drifted by.

"Um... I'd like to ask, does this car need a passport?"

"What passport? You need an interstellar permit!"

Li Jiajun turned a deaf ear to these complaints; he was now completely immersed in the joy of creating an "absolutely safe" product. Having solved mobility and range, he began to think about the last and most core problem — protection.

"In case, I mean in case, a collision occurs, the car body must be strong enough to protect the elderly inside."

While thinking, he flipped through the documentary list.

Eventually, his gaze landed on a documentary titled "Prehistoric Beasts: Ankylosaurus and Turtles".

When he saw on the screen a turtle calmly retracting its limbs and head into its hard shell when facing an attack, remaining completely unharmed no matter how the predator clawed and bit, his eyes lit up for the third time.

The tens of thousands of Netizens in the live stream had completely given up struggling at this moment.

They numbly watched the Streamer's face, which had once again fallen into a daze, and the comments section was peaceful, full of a resigned Zen.

"Gecko, camel, and now an iron turtle..."

"I've already imagined what this car looks like: a giant iron turtle with gecko feet and a camel's hump on its back..."

"Say no more, I've already started laughing, hahahaha!"

"Uncle Liu: I feel like I'm not going to make it..."

Ding!

【You analyzed the multi-layered keratin shield structure of the turtle shell, combined it with bionic armor theory, and achieved an epiphany regarding the 【Multi-Layer Composite Armor Integrated Molding Technology】!】

"Perfect!"

Li Jiajun jumped up from his chair in excitement.

Looking at the three core technologies he had gathered on his whiteboard, he felt he had created an unparalleled "safety artwork".

Tires that can climb walls, ensuring it will absolutely not slip.

Energy that can span continents, ensuring it will absolutely not break down.

Armor that can withstand attacks, ensuring it will absolutely not be damaged in a collision.

This is simply arming the word "safety" to the teeth!

Looking at the ignorant Netizens in the live stream who were still spamming "iron turtle", he showed a trace of a disdainful smile on his face and once again turned on his unconscious voice-over complaint mode:

"Sigh, the vision, the vision is still too small. A bunch of mortals who simply don't understand what true bionic art is!"

"This is called integrating the essence of nature's three great masters of defense, range, and climbing into one! This vehicle shouldn't be called elderly joy; it should have a more resounding name that better reflects its safety essence!"

He picked up a pen and solemnly wrote three big characters at the top of the whiteboard:

"black tortoise!"
