Chapter 12: Rebirth?
Everyone turned around.
Kate also raised her small furry head and saw that Lotus, the famous school flower in her class, had stepped forward. She looked somewhat enchanting and radiant as she spoke with confidence.
But from this angle, Kate could see a flash of ruthless glint flashed through Lotus’s eyes for a moment. free webnov el.com
“You mean that small firefighter robot?” The other student asked with a dubious tone.
Their engineering faculty had several teams that worked on some projects. One of them was called the robotic group and early this year, there was a firefighter robot competition design.
Their task was to create the robot that could stop the fire.
Of course, the size was that of a small robot and not like real firefighter cars.
.....
Their university was one of the best university in this country, but in terms of engineering, they were usually known as the second. And in this competition, they also got the second place.
Anyway, Kate was unfamiliar with it.
She didn’t have the time to participate with the robotic group because she was too busy reviewing to make sure that she would be able to pass the classes.
“Yes. Our team make the robot to be able to pour water out. If the speed is controlled towards the rat, it’ll be able to attract the rat’s attention while the others attack it with some items here.” Lotus looked at the student and nodded.
“But that’s...”
“What’s more important? Your robot or your life?”
Hearing that question, the students from the robotic groups gritted their teeth. They knew very well that if this was the only option, they would have to do it.
“In that case, we’ll take it.” the leader of the robotic team could only turn around. Their club room was located on the first floor and that robot they were so proud of was also there.
“Wait.”
“What?”
Another boy stood up with frown. Kate could remember him since he was the class leader. “Rather than using the robot, we can actually attract the attention through making noise from here and throw items towards the rats.”
“That’s true, but the rats will be attracted to this building. Where do you think we should begin to attack?” Lotus asked. “If you continue to wait any longer, more rats will gather and we won’t be able to get out.”
Her tone was filled with certainty and also confidence.
It was strange.
At least, Kate felt that it was really strange. No matter how famous Lotus was, she was known to be a rather soft and caring girl, a certain goddess in the heart of many boys. But this time, Kate actually felt that Lotus somehow changed.
She thought about the sudden scream before she returned to class not long ago.
At that time, Lotus was screaming in pain.
The girls naturally thought that she was trying to attract attention once more while some of the boys were concerned about her.
‘Does it have some relation with this red rain?’ Kate thought in wonder.
While Kate was pondering, Kyle was also looking at Lotus with narrowed eyes. He didn’t say anything, but it seemed that his attitude had already shown that he knew something.
“Let’s go.”
“Hurry. If you wait any longer, there will be two rats breaking inside and we won’t be able to take the robot.” Lotus looked outside and felt that time was ticking.
“I’ll go!”
“Hurry!”
The students were in somewhat chaos, but they also still have their rationality. No one wanted to brave through danger and got out when the situation was really bad like this.
Thunk! Thunk!
Drap! Drap!
“Gaah!”
“Close the door!”
Kate couldn’t see what happened because her vision was blocked with so many students, but she could hear various sound.
She blinked her eyes.
When the student returned with the robot, he had a fearful expression on his face. “Right after we take the robot, the door is broken and the rat comes in.” free(w)ebnovel(.)com
“What? But I thought that the door is already reinforced with metals when it’s first repaired a few months ago?” Another student exclaimed.
“It’s from the back door!”
“Then, how are we supposed to get out?”
Lotus narrowed her eyes. “There’s still the emergency stairs that’s different from the main stairs. We can still use it to get out and someone will control the robot from here. When the rat’s attention is attracted, we’ll be able to attack it.”
“Well said.”
“In that case, the arrangement should be...”
“I’ll...”
There were many boys who loved war games and begun to give some inputs regarding the arrangement. They also begun to collect whatever that could be used as weapons such as stick, metal bat, and even part of chair.
Don’t ask where they found it.
The storage room of an engineering student would always produce miracles.
Any kind of strange items could be found there.
Kate didn’t bother listening because she would definitely feel sleepy. She was looking at Lotus and tilted her furry head. For some reason, she felt as if Lotus had already experienced everything before.
Was it... rebirth?
