A Lie's Wonderful Shopping Trip

"Sir, your total after discounts comes to 720 yuan. Will you be using the GD Racers yourself?"

The base model was half price, and accessories were ten percent off, so the discounted total naturally was not a whole number. But the young woman had waived the change, intending to cover it herself.

A strong opening, after all—good luck was worth something!

The young woman was Zhou Shuya, a store manager Liang Xing had recently promoted. She was not only eloquent but also exceptionally sharp-minded.

After all, sales staff at physical stores received less than seven full days of training.

Among the staff at both physical stores, Zhou Shuya ranked near the top in how quickly she picked up GD Racers.

Aside from being a little weaker at hands-on assembly, she had already memorized the functions and prices of every accessory inside out.

On top of that, she really was pretty—petite and delicate, with neat features—so she naturally became the manager of the new store.

It had to be said that good looks truly were a powerful weapon in the sales industry of the Parallel World.

"Huh? Right! I'm playing with it myself."

After paying, Douyin Streamer, Mini 4WD Kid A Lie casually opened a pack of guide wheels, so his reply came a little slowly.

He was an old hand in the Mini 4WD circle. One touch was enough for him to tell that the material of these guide wheels was unusual.

Even their name was interesting—Fireproof Low-Drag Tail Guide Roller.

Why would a toy car need fireproofing?

He had specifically chosen the fireproof model because he wanted to see what this so-called fireproof feature was all about.

As for why he had chosen the tail guide rollers, that was purely because of the price.

"Alright, sir. Please put on the headphones. We need to collect your voice."

Buying GD Racers clearly was not as simple as paying and taking the product.

Zhou Shuya began guiding A Lie through the remaining procedures.

At her reminder, he noticed a watch-like device on the table connecting a computer to the headphones. Without giving it much thought, he put them on, and the surroundings instantly fell silent.

There was no doubt that this was another one of Liang Xing's creations.

He had figured that voice control had to be bound to a racer, so he had casually spent ten or so minutes putting together this device.

Its function was simple: activate and authenticate the GD Chip, then assign an owner to the voice controls.

After all, GD Racers could not obey anyone who happened to shout at them, could they?

That image was too beautiful to imagine.

When you're ready, please give me a hand signal.

Zhou Shuya scanned the box of the base-model GD Racers, then took out a card with instructions written on it. A Lie immediately made an OK gesture.

Speak.

Understanding, Zhou Shuya signaled that A Lie could start talking.

"Hello, hello... What am I supposed to say?"

He could hear his own voice clearly, though it sounded a little different from how it usually sounded to him.

A Lie was still wondering what to say when Zhou Shuya signaled that he was done.

"Is that all?" After taking off the headphones, A Lie was still a little confused.

"Yes, sir. It's been recorded. If you need to change the voice-control information later, you can log into our official website. The manual explains everything. We look forward to seeing you again!"

Carrying a small bag of parts, A Lie was ushered out by Zhou Shuya in a daze.

Behind him, she continued supervising the renovations. A Lie stood foolishly at the entrance, holding his phone in one hand and the base-model GD Racers along with some accessories in the other.

Hurry! Find somewhere to try it out!

Gifted Hearts ×1

Gifted Flowers ×1

Gifted Flowers ×88

With the screen full of urging comments and gifts, A Lie hurriedly found a nearby plaza.

"I'll test these fireproof guide rollers first. This thing is pretty expensive."

A pair of button-sized guide wheels cost 18.9 yuan after the discount.

If it were not for the GD Racers gimmick, he definitely would not have wasted money on them.

Couldn't be helped. His viewers loved this stuff.

As he spoke, A Lie pulled out a lighter. He picked up a twig from a flower bed, skewered the guide wheel with it, and tried setting it on fire.

Yet even after the twig burned through, the guide wheel remained exactly the same.

Holy shit!

This thing doesn't even look heavy. Why make it into a toy car? What a waste!

Stop dragging it out and show us the car already!

Gifted Cruise Ship ×1

Urged on by the Cruise Ship patron, A Lie could only temporarily set aside his curiosity about the fireproof guide wheels and formally open the base-model GD Racers box.

A manual, a chassis equipped with a GD Chip, a pure-white shell, and all kinds of other components were firmly wedged in place by foam.

Without destroying the foam board, it would be difficult to remove all the parts.

Standing beside a bench closest to a trash can, A Lie carefully removed the components and casually tossed the foam board into the bin.

He was an experienced Mini 4WD player, so he could assemble the GD Racers without even looking at the manual.

Aside from the GD Chip, many of the GD Racers components could actually be used interchangeably with Mini 4WD parts.

But after inspecting it, A Lie found that the GD Racers motor was connected to the GD Chip by tiny wires, and there were even quite a few extra tiny wires.

Judging by their size, they seemed capable of being embedded into the chassis to connect various parts. But even without connecting the extra wires, he could apparently complete the assembly.

He cautiously flipped the switch, and a familiar sound echoed in his ears.

He did not know whether it was just his imagination, but A Lie felt as though the GD Racers in his hand had come alive—it wanted to run?

Of course, a toy race car could not come alive.

It was merely an illusion caused by the GD Chip activating after receiving energy from the motor.

In A Lie's eyes, the core features of GD Racers were voice control and that unbelievable jumping ability.

Without reading the manual, he had no idea that the GD Chip was actually a learning-function chip installed in the GD Racers, a type of Smart Chips.

It allowed the race car to run as though it possessed a will of its own, which was why A Lie had the illusion that it had come alive.

In any case, he had come to verify whether GD Racers were real, so naturally he would not miss a test run!

Although Liang Xing had specifically explained that an unbelievable function like jumping came from the racer's modifications to the GD Racers, A Lie did not expect to try that.

But voice control was a basic capability, so he had to test it.

"I should give it a name, right?"

A Lie was eager to try. The moment he muttered those words, a string of bizarre names floated across the screen.

White Death, Lightning Charge Horn—they seemed even more excited than A Lie himself.

But this time, A Lie did not listen to them. That signal telling him it wanted to run made him choose the simple name Charge Horn.

"Save your names for your own GD Racers, brothers. I'm getting ready for a test run!"

As the front wheels settled onto the ground, the barrage on his phone screen paused for an instant before filling the screen with Go!.

Bzzzz—!

The instant he let go, A Lie could not help shouting, "Charge Horn! Go!"

The GD Chip received its racer's command, and the motor's speed began to soar. The GD Racers, which had only just started moving, quickly left A Lie far behind.

Mini 4WD cars actually had another nickname—once you let go, they were gone.

"Holy shit! My car!"
