Fang? Are you- like Max? asked Dr. Martinez. Nope,he said, sounding bored. I'm the smart one. I resisted the urge to kick him in the shin.
In this excerpt from "Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports" by James Patterson, Dr. Martinez asks Fang if he is similar to Max, suggesting a possible resemblance or shared traits. Fang responds dismissively, indicating he's different and considers himself the more intelligent of the two.
He sounds bored and self-assured, emphasizing his own cleverness while subtly dismissing any comparison to Max. The interaction hints at a rivalry or close relationship between the characters, with Fang viewing himself as the "smart one" in their dynamic.
