Murdock stared intently at the dark machine rumbling in front of him.
Not until Sandler's voice overpowered the roar of the machine could one hear, "Pressure normal! Throttle valve normal!"
Murdock immediately showed ecstatic joy, shouted "Release the steam," and then embraced each assistant one by one to celebrate.
A factory supervisor jogged into the test shed and called out to Murdock, "Mr. Murdock, the Crown Prince has arrived!"
"Ah? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"You said that during the test, unless God Himself came, nothing should disturb you..."
"From now on, exclude both the Crown Prince and God!"
"Oh, alright..."
Once Murdock and others had performed their formalities, Joseph asked with a smile, "Just now, I seemed to have heard your cheers."
