Chapter 32: Anyone Can Enter?

Zhang Jiwei had just started wondering why the Electromagnetic Pulse Gun sounded like that when he suddenly felt himself collapse, blood spurting from both of his hands.

“Ah!”

He couldn’t help but roll on the ground, wailing in agony.

His blood immediately stained the pool red, but no matter how much he curled his body, the intense pain didn’t diminish in the slightest.

Phew!

On the other side, a panting Hannah let out a sigh of relief.

He had startled her just now, causing her pupils to contract as she instinctively entered Bullet Time.

Even though the Carnation model was special and it was raining, she didn’t dare gamble on whether Carnation could react in time or if she could tank a shot from an electromagnetic pulse.

It had been a purely subconscious reaction.

Having just finished dealing with the other androids, Carnation nodded and said, “Thank you.”

“Hah, I thought you were going to explain how you could have dodged it yourself.”

Hannah stepped forward, her large umbrella shielding Carnation’s body.

She stole a quick glance.

Although Carnation was soaked, her clothes were entirely black, so nothing could be seen.

Hannah felt a bit disappointed.

“That is indeed the case,” Carnation agreed with a nod.

“But saying that would be a bit lacking in emotional intelligence, wouldn’t it?”

“Haha, I feel like you’ve matured a lot. You even know about emotional intelligence now.”

Hannah laughed, her body shaking with mirth.

The genes of a mixed-race person were quite powerful.

Suddenly, Hannah’s eyes darted around as she asked, “Was I cool just now?”

“Cool!”

a voice called out, sounding muffled as if the speaker had been beaten black and blue.

The two looked over to see the security officer, Jiang Yiyun, rubbing his hands as he squeezed under the large umbrella.

Hannah narrowed her eyes.

Jiang Yiyun blinked, seemingly realizing he had cheered at the wrong moment.

He backed out awkwardly.

“Cough, cough, it’s nothing. You two carry on, hiss…”

He picked up the black umbrella Zhang Jiwei had dropped.

Before he could finish his sentence, he couldn’t help but grimace, clutching his mouth.

Seeing his injuries, Carnation pulled a small spray bottle from a small compartment in her clothes.

“Wait.”

Hannah stepped forward, snatched the spray, and tossed it to Jiang Yiyun.

She then turned Carnation back to face her.

“You haven’t answered my question yet.”

“Cool!”

Carnation knew that although Jiang Yiyun looked beaten up, his injuries were all superficial and not serious, so she stopped paying him any attention.

“Haha, good girl.”

Hannah patted Carnation’s hair as a reward.

Carnation, meanwhile, continued to process the scene.

She had basically disabled the mobility of the ten or so android security guards.

Only Zhang Jiwei was still enduring the sharp pain, choking on rainwater as he tried to crawl away.

‘Can’t see me, can’t see me…’ he prayed.

In the end, Carnation picked him up directly and locked him in handcuffs.

“Can you tell us what happened?”

Carnation looked at Jiang Yiyun, who was using the spray to stop his bleeding.

“It went like this…”

After the explanation was finished, Hannah was shocked.

“I’m going out there right now—”

“It’s too late.”

Zhang Jiwei flashed a successful smile.

Jiang Yiyun nodded in agreement.

“Yes, it’s too late.”

A flash of confusion crossed Zhang Jiwei’s face.

He was stalling for time and had been prepared to talk nonsense, so why was this guy agreeing with him?

This wasn’t right.

Carnation looked thoughtful.

“The range of a Signal Jammer isn’t very large. If you go far enough, you can transmit information no matter what, unless…”

Jiang Yiyun smiled and nodded.

“Early this afternoon, after I woke up, I told my friends at the police station about this. They’ve known for a long time.”

“You lied to me!”

Zhang Jiwei’s eyes turned bloodshot with rage.

He glared at him, but the rain poured into his eyes, making it difficult to keep them open.

Jiang Yiyun shrugged and said casually, “I didn’t lie to you. I concealed your existence. If you had truly repented, I would have naturally credited you for the help. But you…”

Jiang Yiyun squatted down.

“Have! Really! Disappointed! Me!”

He slapped him in rhythm with his words, venting his anger.

After four slaps, half of Zhang Jiwei’s face was completely swollen.

“Whew, that felt good!”

Carnation had originally wanted to stop him, but Hannah held her back.

“The Public Security Bureau should be contacting President Gu. We can leave it to them. Our case has been successfully solved. Come on, let’s take this guy to the station and then go home!”

Hannah said excitedly.

She had thought they would have to work overtime, but now it seemed unnecessary.

“That girl… can she really cause non-contact infections?”

Carnation’s brow was furrowed tightly, feeling as uneasy as this sudden rainstorm.

Truth be told, she also seemed to have made eye contact with that girl.

Why was she fine?

Perhaps she should get a checkup when she returned.

“Hey, hey, why think so much? Let’s go back!”

Hannah was truly afraid Carnation would come up with another idea; she definitely didn’t want to work overtime.

“Ugh! Finally finished with everything.”

Gu Yu stretched.

Suddenly, she realized something.

‘Why don’t I just kidnap An’an and use her as a body pillow? Just like I did in the office.’

She slapped her forehead.

‘Tsk, a certain person left such a deep impression on me that I subconsciously didn’t dare bring anyone in. But An’an is different.’

She checked her message bar.

There were only a few proposals uploaded by some employees.

She could look at those tomorrow; there was no rush.

She stood up and walked toward the door.

***

Outside the door, Su An was considering her options.

The sound of opening the door was too loud; it was impossible to just open it and walk in.

The only solution was to wait for the moment Gu Yu opened the door, then suddenly strike, stabbing the sharp pencil into her eye!

Taking a deep breath, Su An tensed her nerves, staying alert for any movement.

And then…

Ding-dong!

The area between the first and third floors was an open spiral staircase without any soundproofing, so the doorbell naturally reached Su An’s ears.

At this moment, her nerves were wound too tight, and she subconsciously looked toward the staircase.

At the same time, the sound of the door opening came from behind her.

By the time Su An realized something was wrong, it was already too late.

“An’an?”

Gu Yu subconsciously picked Su An up.

Noticing the pencil in her hand, she frowned.

“Don’t play with such dangerous things.”

As she spoke, she snatched the pencil from Su An’s tight grip and threw it away.

Su An swore she had been holding it as hard as she could!

Even an infant’s grip wouldn’t be this weak, right?

Were her stats filled in at random!

She instinctively began to struggle.

“Don’t cause trouble.”

Gu Yu patted An’an’s bottom, making her behave.

Don’t misunderstand; it wasn’t that she was being subjectively well-behaved, but rather that the “Don’t cause trouble” command was a strong directive that overrode her Willpower.

She couldn’t cause trouble even if she wanted to.

She was powerless.

Her enemy was right in front of her, yet she could do nothing.

Ding-dong!

The doorbell rang again.

Gu Yu frowned.

“Who is it?”

Jing Jing floated forward.

“Ms. Gu Yu, it is the routine inspection from the Abnormal Android Disposal Bureau that you scheduled.”

At the same time, Jing Jing projected the image from outside the courtyard gate.

A burly bald man was holding an umbrella while another ordinary-looking man rubbed his body to stay warm, continuing to press the doorbell.

Gu Yu stared at the bald man.

Her eyes narrowed as she said mercilessly, “Cancel the appointment!”

One could say she was paranoid, but her intuition was rarely wrong.

The bald man outside the gate gave her an extremely dangerous feeling; her sixth sense was screaming warnings at her.

Conversely, even though the An’an in her arms was holding a sharp pencil, Gu Yu only thought she was playing with things like a child.

Since she didn’t feel the slightest bit of danger, she naturally didn’t think in that direction.

Truly harmless to humans and animals alike.

An’an had undergone an inspection by Xingyu Fantasy not long ago, so theoretically, the possibility of her being abnormal had been ruled out.

There was no special need for another check.

So, Gu Yu chose to reject the inspection without hesitation.

‘Eh?’

Su An was stunned.

‘It seems I don’t have to die?’

“Ha, cancel the appointment?”

Liu Rui was truly speechless.

His impression of and liking for President Gu plummeted.

“Forget it, forget it. This is just in time to go back and get a good night’s sleep in the rain.”

Instead, it was Selie who started to comfort Liu Rui.

Liu Rui thought about it and nodded.

“Whatever. Let’s go back to sleep. Hiss, it’s freezing. If I’d known, I would’ve worn more layers. This damn weather is so unpredictable.”

They returned to the car.

“Oh, right, brother.”

“What’s up?”

“A friend of mine found out I was here and said he needed to see me. How about…”

“Hah, I thought it was something important. Go ahead. Do you need me to wait for you?”

“No need, no need. I’ll just stay over at his place.”

“That sounds good.”

“Just drop me off here. It’s not far.”

“Alright. Here, take the umbrella.”

“Thanks, brother.”

***

In the rain, inside the warm and comfortable Shuttle, Liu Rui narrowed his eyes.

He gripped the spherical steering wheel and looked at the information on his retinas.

‘Selie… the information is quite complete. He’s in the Processing Bureau’s system… under Group Leader Wang. There’s only one Group Leader Wang in the Processing Bureau, and that’s…’

He looked at his friends list and clicked on the contact “Wang Jiahao.”

Liu Rui had sent many messages before, but none had received a response.

This time, he chose to make a voice call directly.

Beep…

Click!

“Check the wiring, we can still increase production… Hello? Liu Rui, you brat, what do you want?”

The veins on Liu Rui’s forehead bulged.

“Wang, didn’t you see the messages I sent?”

“Messages? What messages? Oh, oh, I see them. Hmm, let me look. Selie? Who the hell is that? Never heard of him!”

“Fine, go back to your wiring! Goodbye!”

Liu Rui hung up abruptly.

Then he frowned.

“I bet if Hannah were here, she’d be screaming about whether the Processing Bureau’s system is a joke. Anyone can get in?”
