Chapter 2110: If I Were an AI, Would You Love Me? 21
Number One was angry and didn't understand.
What does it mean to just dismantle him!
If you dismantle him, he dies!
And……
You still want to dismantle me again? Are you sick?
Jin Chen's finger precisely pierced Number One's chest, broke through the heart, and grabbed its core device.
If you won't tell me, I'll investigate on my own, but…
Jin Chen calmly threatened: "I'll put your core device into a stray dog's corpse."
Number One froze, his whole body feeling a bit cyber-numb.
He still has self-awareness; as long as the core device isn't destroyed, he can "live," but he can't live as a stray dog!
【Ew~ gross taste!】Ling Gun Gun quickly searched nearby for any stray dog corpses.
Under the pressure of Jin Chen's evil-force, Number One spat out Mi Xuan's location.
But as soon as he named an area, it triggered Mi Xuan's self-destruct, blowing him to pieces in front of Jin Chen.
The youngster was scared enough to curse; even though he'd guessed they weren't human, seeing a human-like android explode before him truly tested his limits.
Jin Chen picked up the core device from the ground.
Might as well stuff it into a stray dog's corpse.
Just kidding.
He still needs to keep it for experiments.
Thus, Ling Gun Gun regretfully stopped searching.
Jin Chen had no money, nowhere to stay at night.
Fortunately, androids don't need sleep, and power can be drawn from Ling Gun Gun, like a power bank.
Jin Chen found a relatively clean spot in the warehouse, picked up Number One's limb fragments, tweaked them, and turned them into a display screen that could lie flat on the ground.
It was brutal.
The youngster swore he'd never seen such a terrifying horror movie in his life.
He swallowed, nervously found a seat beside Jin Chen, and clung to his backpack.
Jin Chen glanced, urging, "Why aren't you leaving yet?"
I still need to call my wife!
The youngster's eyes red, too scared to look up at him, he lowered his head and stammered, "I… I don't dare; it's dark out, no ordinary person dares to go out at night."
No wonder.
Jin Chen thought, the residential areas had been eerily quiet all along his way.
"Why, are there monsters at night?"
"This world shouldn't have monster settings, right?"
But thinking of the weird gadgets Mi Xuan created, Jin Chen wasn't so sure anymore.
The youngster continued to shiver, "No… no, it's just… the usual… nights are dangerous, anyone could be around."
Since it's local custom, Jin Chen refrained from criticizing, "Stay away from me."
Jin Chen said: "I also eat people."
Limbs in his hand were being sharpened, glinting.
Youngster: "……"
He clutched his backpack and scrambled to the other side of the warehouse, losing control of his bowels.
Jin Chen was satisfied, connecting to the home communications equipment, and the assistant little butler—Ai Dun Dun.
At the same moment, at home.
Xu Xuxing hugged himself on the sofa, the audiovisual room routinely playing horror movies, with a few uneaten chocolates beside the sofa.
It seemed no different from when Jin Chen hadn't come home before.
But it was also completely different.
The horror movies were selected by Jin Chen, and the blanket still carried his scent.
More importantly, he really missed Jin Chen.
Xu Xuxing listlessly watched the ghosts on the screen, chin resting on his knees for a while, then turned his head and buried himself in the blanket.
His heart felt empty, wistful as if he'd lost something.
It's only five days; he told himself he didn't have to wait long.
But each minute and second now felt hard to endure.
The audiovisual room door opened by Ai Dun Dun, two mechanical arms holding a tray with a pair of headphones.
"Hello." Ai Dun Dun came to the sofa side, "Please put on the headphones."
Xu Xuxing's thoughts were a bit slow; he slowly turned his head to look at him, "I don't want to listen to music, thanks."
"Not for music, it's the boss." Ai Dun Dun said.
This title was personally implanted by Jin Chen; any speaking robot in the house must call it that.
Xu Xuxing reacted, immediately putting on the headphones.
Right, how could he forget, Jin Chen is an android and can remotely link to the home equipment.
Xu Xuxing slowly leaned back in the sofa, fingertips on the mic, "Jin Chen?"
I'm here, Xing Xing.
His empty heart was instantly filled upon hearing the voice; Xu Xuxing eagerly bit his lip.
Jin Chen looked at Xu Xuxing on the screen and said softly, "Xingxing, I can see you through the audio-visual room's monitor."
Hearing this, Xu Xuxing raised his head to look for the monitor; the horror film on screen lost all its appeal, and he turned sideways to gaze at the monitor's electronic eye, feeling a bit unhappy.
"I can't see you."
Jin Chen lowered his gaze to the limbs scattered across the messy warehouse, only moonlight shining in, and said, "This place is a mess."
Replying to him in a low tone: "I haven't seen you for 10 hours."
In the high-definition monitor feed, Xu Xuxing lowered his head listlessly, every strand of hair showing loss, and said, "We've never been apart this long before."
Too pitiful.
Jin Chen instantly went Soft-hearted, without principle: "Look, let Xingxing see now."
He transferred the link, moving the communication data to the audio-visual room's wall-mounted projection TV.
The horror film's image was replaced; after a moment of black screen, the warehouse appeared in the projection, borrowing the moonlight's brightness, its atmosphere not lacking compared to the horror film.
Xu Xuxing's breath caught for an instant, certainly not from fear.
It was slightly subtle.
Jin Chen seemed to become the horror film's protagonist as well; his breathing came through the earpiece, making Xu Xuxing's ear feel a little itchy, and his heart beat a bit faster.
"You..." Xu Xuxing finally came out of his daze, furrowed his brows, and asked worriedly: "Did you get into a fight? Are you hurt?"
"Not hurt, I took apart Number One." Jin Chen found a relatively clean windowsill, sat with one leg dangling, and casually undid two shirt buttons.
"Xingxing, what did you do at home today? Did you behave, take your medicine, and rest?" Jin Chen asked gently.
Thus Xu Xuxing began to earnestly recall.
He returned home from the experiment center, covered his head and slept for three hours before waking up; hearing this, Jin Chen praised him for being a nap-loving Guabao.
After waking from his nap, under the urging of the little stool, he took his medicine, lacking the will to do mental work, sat by the floor-to-ceiling window in a daze, his main activity being missing Jin Chen.
Xu Xuxing said this without embarrassment, staring at the screen's Jin Chen, expressing how much he missed him, and once again emphasized that he must return in five days.
Regarding the urging from the organization, Jin Chen went so Soft-hearted he melted, immediately saying he would shorten the time to within five days, guaranteeing that on the morning of the fifth day, the 'lovesick' little Xingxing would be able to see him.
Xu Xuxing was very satisfied, thus put his mind at ease, gradually growing drowsy in the soothing sounds.
He really was exhausted today; excessive emotional drain would also affect his energy.
But lying on the Sofa was never comfortable no matter how.
