Chapter 67: Intrigue and deception

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Outside the bathroom door on the second floor, Claire was lost in thought looking at the drones and bionic robot wreckage on the ground.

She glanced at the smashed wooden door and the hole-ridden interior wall of the bathroom, raised her hand to her forehead and took a deep breath in an effort to calm herself down.

Yu Zhesen had just climbed up the stairs. After observing his words, he volunteered: "Shall I pack these rags into the garage?"

"Remember to remove the recording chip."

"Okay."

Of course, he couldn't move the remains of the bionic robot with his bare hands, so he had to use exoskeleton armor.

While carrying the wreckage, Yu Zhesen communicated with Shi Xin in his mind: "What do you think of tonight's events?"

"I can only tell you that it is possible for bionic robots to use supernatural powers."

"Eh?"

"Their body parts also include small parts of artificial muscles and tendons, so in theory they can be used as carriers of superpower genes."

I feel like things are a little complicated...

Yu Zhesen couldn't help but start to think, is this a factory-built function of these military-grade bionic robots, or is it a temporary modification made by the Returned Sect?

If it is the former, then the cost is too high. The two bionic robots they destroyed tonight have different abilities, so they should not be mass-produced.

If it was the latter, then the technical power of the Returned Sect refreshed his understanding. It only took a few hours from the time the goods were robbed to the completion of the modification and put into actual combat testing.

"By the way, I remembered something, let me confirm it with you." The tone in Yu Zhesen's mind suddenly became serious.

"You said it." Shi Xin replied with the same serious attitude.

"When you hugged me in the bathroom that day, did you use the same ability as an enemy tonight?"

Recalling that scene at that time inevitably made him a little excited.

"Yes, it's the 'Water Mold' under the fifth ability group 'Natural'." Shi Xin confirmed his guess.

Yu Zhesen's scalp was numb: "So what happened at that time was... you temporarily rewritten my superpower gene into a 'water mold', and then created an He's body to hug me?"

"Are you angry? I did this on my own initiative." Shi Xin's tone softened, sounding like a child who understood that he had made a mistake.

"That's not true... To be honest, that hug feels great, but now I suspect that I am a bit perverted."

He placed the remains of the two bionic robots side by side, and then took out the recording chip according to Claire's instructions.

When the chip was pulled out of the socket, there was a spark and it was completely burned.

Yu Zhesen stared at the blackened chip in his hand for a moment, then punched it and cursed.

"It seems that the other party doesn't want to leave any evidence behind." Shi Xin commented.

"Does it make sense for the Advent sect to do this... Wait! The manipulator behind these two bionic robots cannot be..."

Yu Zhesen disarmed himself and quickly took off his belt.

The tomahawk logo of Xingtian Heavy Industry Group on his belt made him extremely uneasy.

"Boss Han wants to get the secret of your genes, have you noticed it?" Shi Xin made a motion of touching the back of his neck in his mind, "There is a miniature hidden in the armor you summoned for the first time.

Blood collection device."

Yu Zhesen was so angry: "So that bastard directed tonight's attack just to make me put on this tampered armor as soon as possible?"

"Don't worry, his wishful thinking has failed. There is no useful genetic information in the collected blood."

Shi Xin said proudly: "If I want to take advantage of your body, you have to ask me first if I agree."

Yu Zhesen turned from anger to joy: "Beautiful! I really want to see how he failed when he thought he had planned everything."

……

Xingtian Heavy Industry Group Headquarters Building, High-rise Conference Center.

Han Jinghu is leaning on a chair with his eyes closed to relax.

The VIP elevator door at the end of the conference room opened, and Luo Meiwu walked out on high heels.

"Boss, the results of Yu Zhesen's blood sample analysis are out."

Han Jinghu opened his eyes suddenly and took the tablet handed over by Luo Meiwu.

"No superpower genes? How is that possible!" He almost couldn't resist the urge to throw the tablet on the table.

"I have repeatedly confirmed with the researchers, and they insisted that the analysis process strictly followed the procedures and there were no problems," Luo Meiwu said in a low voice.

Han Jinghu put his hands on Guang's forehead and rubbed it back and forth. After a few seconds, he smiled bitterly: "It seems that this young man is more difficult to deal with than we thought..."

He had to admit that this time he was tricked by Yu Zhesen.

"Then...should I continue to advance my work?" Luo Meewu's tone was hesitant.

"Continue."

"Okay, but you'd better not have too much hope for the boss. I personally think... it's hard for him to be impressed." After speaking, Luo Meimei laughed at herself, "Maybe I'm too incompetent."

"You don't have to think about success or not, just build a deeper relationship with him." Han Jinghu ordered.

"Understood."

"The more you try to hide yourself, the more interest you will arouse in me." Han Jinghu stared at the blood analysis report and said as if talking to himself.

Luo Meiwu stood aside expressionlessly, remaining silent, not knowing what she was thinking at the moment.

After a while, Han Jinghu stood up, and Luo Meiwu took the initiative to help smooth the wrinkles in his suit on his back.

"How's it going at the Zongtian Research Institute? Are you keeping an eye on the progress?" Han Jinghu asked with his back turned.

"The director and researchers have been working hard to make progress according to your instructions. We reported half an hour ago that the completion rate of the 'Sky Repair Project' is 85%."

"Can I catch up tomorrow?" Han Jinghu asked.

"There are still a few weapons to be mounted. It is not impossible to put it into actual combat, but the strength may not meet the expectations at the beginning of the design."

"Let them step up their preparations."

"Yes."

……

The electronic rolling shutter door of the villa garage slowly rose. Claire sat in the cab of the SUV and said to Yu Zhesen through the half-rolled window: "It's getting late. Go rest and don't think too much."

She does not plan to stay at home tonight, but is going back to the security bureau.

Although the recording chips removed from the wreckage of the bionic robot and drone were burned, Claire still planned to send them to the technology department for identification.

Before leaving, she asked Yu Zhesen to take down the light particle equipment box from the trunk, which was left for An He.

"Have a nice trip, instructor."

Yu Zhesen saluted her and watched her drive the car out of the garage.

The equipment box in his hand is very light and seems to be made of a special alloy. It contains a computer that can be directly connected to the Yiguang system. The light particle transmitter in this box was used to deliver it to him that night when he had a barbecue in the old city.

A customized windbreaker uniform.

Of course, the box itself also has a storage function, and An He’s spare equipment is placed inside.

Yu Zhesen returned to the villa with the suitcase and was surprised to find An He, wearing a loose white half-sleeved suit, coming down from the second floor with a quilt in his arms.

She ignored Yu Zhesen's strange gaze, passed him and walked straight into the guest room.

Yu Zhesen followed in and saw her bending over to spread the quilt beside the bed.

He couldn't help being happy: "You want to sleep with me in such a big house?"

"You can have someone to take care of you if something unexpected happens again."

There should be no more accidents, Yu Zhesen thought, because tonight's attack was originally a trick played by Han Jinghu.

Collecting blood samples of superpower genes... He suddenly remembered this and looked involuntarily towards the back of An He's neck.

An He has also worn the Dark Night Fire Armor provided by Xingtian Heavy Industry. Could it be possible that she was also...

A strong feeling of irritation suddenly came over him. He put the equipment box aside and walked quickly towards An He.

"Huh? What's wrong?" An He noticed that his behavior was a little unusual.

Normally, someone approaching her so quickly would make her instinctively wary, but because the other person was Yu Zhesen, she didn't take any countermeasures.

"Don't move." Yu Zhesen grabbed her shoulders with one hand and lifted her hair that was scattered around her neck with the other.

The black rope of the Oath Crystal Pendant hung on his white neck. Yu Zhesen held the rope and lifted the pendant. After carefully checking it, he breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that Han Jinghu’s target is only himself.

An He's heart was racing. She didn't understand why Yu Zhesen did this, and she couldn't help but have random thoughts in her mind.

But Yu Zhesen made no further action, and she quickly recovered her senses: "Are you checking something?"

"No." Yu Zhesen didn't want her to worry about him, so he didn't plan to tell her the causes and consequences of what he did.

An He stared at him suspiciously: "Be careful if you lie."

"Your power is not that of a mantra master." Yu Zhesen smiled roguely, "I just want to see your neck, can't you?"

An He's eyes darkened, recalling the scene when he rushed into the bathroom to save himself not long ago: "Rogue."
