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.
