Chapter 1178

The car came to a halt at the parking lot of the facility, with Nicole and Ike getting down and walking off to the lab thereafter.

"Ms. Riddle, Mr. Ike." The lab guard greeted Nicole and Ike politely as soon as he saw them approaching the entrance.

’Is everything fine here?" Nicole asked.

’Yeah, everything is fine as usual,’ the guard replied.

"Alright, thank you for your work,” Nicole said, after which she and Ike headed inside.

"Are we going straight to the design department?" Ike asked as he was walking beside Nicole.

'Yeah. We've just talked about this, didn't we?" Nicole replied to him sternly.

Upon arriving at the entrance of the design department, they swiped their cards, pushed the door open, and walked in. The chief designer, upon noticing that Nicole and Ike had entered the room, walked over to greet them. "Ms. Riddle, Mr. Ike."

'How is the current design going for the team?" asked Nicole.

’It's going well."

'I see. May I have a look?" Nicole asked the chief designer.

"Sure. Over here please." The chief designer extended his hand as a gesture of invitation, whereupon Nicole and Ike entered the meeting room.

Once they were both inside, the chief designer activated the plasma screen on the wall. "Miss Riddle and Mr. Ike, please have a seat. I'll need a moment to search for the data and show it to the both of you."

"No worries." Nicole and Ike took their seats and waited.

After a brief moment, a rough sketch of the manned flying car appeared on the screen. Nicole and Ike's eyes met for an instance. Then, they stared at the screen with frowns on their faces.

Noticing their expressions, the chief designer suddenly felt nervous. 'We weren’t informed that Miss Riddle would be coming in for an inspection today. Why are they making it seem like there is one?'

Nicole maintained her stare for a while longer and turned to Ike, "Do you have any comments?"

Ike looked at Nicole and thought for a moment before making his remarks, "Our design seems quite plain. If we were to compete in the industry based on appearance, I'm afraid well be behind."

The chief designer looked at Ike confusedly, "Mr. Ike, I didn't quite get what you were saying. Are there other companies researching on manned flying cars as well?"

"That's right. Miss Riddle and I were at a tech exhibition yesterday. We saw a conceptual design from a rival company there. Although it's just a conceptual design, we could see that their vision for this flying vehicle is very advanced." Ike explained to the chief designer.

'What? There are other companies working on manned flying cars?" the chief designer asked, extremely shocked upon hearing the news, as he had no idea prior to being informed of this.

"Don't be surprised," Ike said. "Even if they are just researching on it, I'm quite sure they're at the same phase as US. Perhaps, they might be a little, but not far behind US in terms of progress

"If we can come up with a design that's a lot more attractive and practical, I think well be able to secure fifty percent of the market." Nicole looked at them firmly.
