preparation

Hector laughed at Hruday and said, "Don't worry, your secret is safe with me," while he patted hruday's back so hard that hruday felt his heart come out. His whole body shook, even though he tried his best not to show

what he didn't know was a big misunderstanding that had occurred around him Hector had thought hruday was staring at Ice Queen Shofia and falling in love with her and Michael was covering for him

whereas Michael after hearing this, wondered if hruday had a superpower like telepathy, which he quickly dismissed, why would he share with that old man? But a thought arrived: wouldn't he surprise his friends if he had some ability? 100 percent, will he wait for years just to look at their reaction? absolutely!!, Michael thought,

This absurd man, ya, it is probably something else. I really should stop thinking about absurd things, sigh but there is an 80 percent chance he is a regressor.

whereas Sophia who had half heard their conversation while massaging, and with this talk with Hector, connected the dots and came to the conclusion that hruday was gay

hruday asked, not wanting to cause any more scene, trying to explain, as he had felt someone's presence while they were massaging Uncle Hector, I am sorry I overslept I wanted to know what all happened

hmm well, I was busy making carts Ask Sophia; she knows it in detail. Hector called "Sophia! Tell him, what have you guys done?"

she came unhurriedly and said, "OK, Uncle," and then said, "Follow me." Meanwhile, Hector winked at Michael turning towards Monday, and said, Don't worry

Sophia said in her usual tone, "So far, we have turned 2 houses into a production house like you have said and brought 2 manual sewing machines Mohan is in the tailoring shop trying to take out the motors and accelerator pad; he might be coming from the zipline."

"Ah, ok." hruday felt kind of weird getting a report like this, as if he were some boss in a company This was made worse because, as she was telling it, he lowkey felt good because 2 days ago he was running from zombies and now he is managing a group of people to kill them He felt he had done a lot and yet hadn't, as this would all crumble in minutes if he didn't do it right

He sighed and said, "Wait, so we have 6 machines: 4 manual ones and 2 compact electric ones."

"Yes, and they are currently making padded paper armor and bags, as Uncle Hector and their group are making carts,

hruday asked what about rockets, did they work properly, and how many did we lose.

she said it worked well on the first try itself but we used 2 because I made two versions of it, one where I taped the bomb and put its fuse at the end of the rocket's fuse by scraping off the paper cover, as you had said

but later, I got the idea of opening the rocket front cap and planting the atom bomb inside it as I stuffed the fuse inside the powder

hruday asked, having his answer prepared in his mind because he always likes to predict something like this to test his knowledge: "So which one worked?"

Sophia said her voice, giving out her pride. "Well, both worked but the first one was unpredictable, swaying on one side but it could be fixed easily by taping it properly to the rocket so that it balanced."

"But mine worked perfectly, and I think it is efficient to do mine as we wouldn't need tapes, and it is convenient since tapping the round atom bomb is time-consuming.".

hruday said happily, as his calculations were right, "Yes, yours is great and efficient Thank you for doing this

"It's ok, I did it for all of us." nonchalantly as She guided him towards the aunt section, hruday could hear the rhythmic noise of the machines stitching and paddles being pressed

he walked in, looking at the pile of clothes, the people who were carefully cutting the clothes, and another group marking the clothes with chalk according to rough measurements taken by them

it was rough because hruday had asked aunt to make it in general sizes rather than personalized ones, so they had 4 different kinds of sizes for each part

and there were made to cover and protect the most exposed parts, such as shoulders and neck, one for arms, and the last one for legs

they also had one for thighs and back but they would make it if they had time and clothes As for these, they had to make it out of entire clothes rather than making an outer cover and they stuffed them with water-soaked and dried papers

this was another improvisation that Sophia had done to save glue and strengthen the protection as wet paper stuck tightly, becoming hard like a brick but to ensure flexibility, she had instructed a person to use this damp layer as a patty and she would even make the person wear the armor parts before the wet patty inside got dry. She had tried many variations, and so far they had only made 4 complete set

hruday was happy that all this was happening while he was sleeping. He thanked the god who had blessed him with dimples and vampire's teeth, although he hated the latter one as he felt hesitant after laughing but this was a sign of immense luck and fame

he personally checked it by biting it as hard he could and it worked like a charm He even tried the velcro version on himself and ran, swinging his arm in the air The paper armor wasn't restricting anything other than moving a little and making him sweat.

he asked if he could help, and everyone said to help them later when they take a break

He had spent almost an hour making Shopia wait He apologized to her and followed her to the next destination

he entered the house and smelled mixed scents of burned wood and superglue. he entered, but no one was inside so he started to look around There were all kinds of professional and makeshift tools, as well as other common household tools to cut and carve, lying around

it was truly a mess They were cut wooden pieces, metal scraps, wires, half-cut furniture, tons of wheels scavenged from everywhere and there was only one half-finished cart

hruday frowned Looking at all this mess, it was like a newbie cooking something without knowing the proper recipe, and what was worse was that no one knew how to make a cart, and even hruday didn't know how to do this. He only had a vague idea, which wasn't far-fetched child imagination wheels attached to a box

Today I felt doubtful about Hector's claim of being a carpenter because all YouTube carpenter videos looked pretty clean and easy but this was a mess

and even Sophia seemed to be surprised as well. Yesterday, I went with Hector and asked why it was so slow. Later, I discovered that only 2 people were working on this, unlike the others. He also guided the backside of the building to show a shield that he had made. It was a huge wooden shield, and it was heavy!! just as hruday wanted to complain, Hector explained how they were built like Lego pieces
