Chapter 2037

The neighbors looked over upon hearing Arthur’s question. There was a metal lump that resembled a

dog but was much uglier, something none of them had ever seen before. Everyone was surprised.

One of the neighbors, Edgar Klopp, who had just teased Keegan, laughed loudly. "Arthur, did your

great-grandson-in-law bring you a toy? It looks like a real dog, but it's just too ugly. Why didn't he get

one with fur? If you put a speaker in front of your house and play dog barks on loop, it'd scare a lot of

people off."

Everyone joined in the laughter. Then, Arthur looked at Edgar and said, "I'm fine with it. At least he

thought of bringing something over for me. Your grandson has been working for so many years, yet he

hasn't brought you anything at all."

Arthur's words caught Edgar off guard as he immediately defended his grandson. "Young people in the

city have a lot of stuff to deal with and are very stressed."

Arthur replied, "Yeah. Well, the one in my family brought me a furless metal dog."

Edgar's eyelid twitched. Then, he said in a resolute tone, "We can't expect the younger generation to

do everything for US. It's not like we're useless."

Arthur spoke again, "He just brought me a furless metal dog."

Edgar stopped speaking.

"A furless metal dog."

Edgar’s expression turned displeased. "Shut up already."

These two old men had been comparing since they were young, first comparing wives and children,

and now even comparing grandson and great-grandson. However, they were just quibbling. It was just

a little amusement for the old men, never leading to any actual argument.

Stella pulled Keegan lightly, signaling him to say something.

Then, Keegan spoke, "Great-grandpa, this is not a furless metal dog. It's an electronic dog."

Arthur did not really understand. "So, is it a dog or not?"

"Well, sort of."

Keegan squatted down and took it out of the suitcase. After a brief setup, he explained what it was to

everyone.

It was a small prototype from his company, capable of handling basic commands with patrol and alarm

functions. It could recharge itself and send distress signals in case of danger, like if an elderly person

fell or became unconscious for a period of time. It was a very useful invention for elderly people who

lived alone like Arthur.

After all, with no one at home, in case he fell or became ill, things could get a lot worse. So, having this

little device to monitor him could prevent that from happening.

It was everyone's first time seeing such a thing, and they found it incredibly fascinating. The children

gathered around, excitedly giving it commands.

On the other hand, the adults praised Keegan and envied Arthur. They were impressed by the high-

tech invention and Keegan's concern for his elder living alone at home.

"Keegan, what do you do for a living? How can you create such an impressive thing?"

When Keegan was about to modestly deny being the creator of it, Arthur chimed in, "You want to know,

huh? He’s working in some kind of scientific

institute that only recruits geniuses to research on robots."

Upon hearing what he said, Keegan and Stella were both at a loss for words.

'Wow, he can brag even more than me,' Stella thought to herself.

Arthur claimed Keegan to be someone so remarkable. To deny would be disrespectful to Arthur; to

admit would be humiliating himself. He looked extremely hesitant, but in the end, he could not bring

himself to deny it.

The neighbors were impressed and began calling him "Professor Kane" instead of "Keegan."
