Qin Xin felt a moment of sorrow.
It turned out that Wu Zhiming turned Xiangxiang into a robot, not just for half-crazed scientific purposes, but also with the wish for Xiangxiang to live longer.
Although this wish took a wrong turn.
But it still showed a tiny bit of a protective father’s human conscience.
She blocked the doorway and said coldly, "Who are you fixing robots for, who are you working for?"
Wu Zhiming was eager to leave: "It’s your associate, the one who flies around all the time, always asking me to design a program to track a little girl. He said he’s inconvenient to show up himself and didn’t bring any subordinates, needs a robot as his eyes and ears. Oh right, isn’t your machine warehouse hidden under the Imperial University..."
Qin Xin squinted.
The dungeon?
The person who flies around?
It sounds more and more fantastical.
Could it be that the mastermind is really different from normal humans?
And because he operates alone without any subordinates to command, he needs so many robots to work for him?
From this operating style, deducing...
The one who drew her blood, is him.
The one who wants to kill Qin Xin to silence her, is him.
The one who tried to seize the BMP-16 serum from Queen, is also him.
Even to cover his tracks from being discovered, he framed Jun Ruyi by blaming her for the kidnapping of the three little ones, calculating against Jun Ruyi and her mother, is him too.
From beginning to end, the mastermind watching her has been the same person; at Wu Zhiming’s place, she finally got the complete clue.
She must thank Xiangxiang; it was that dying video of Xiangxiang that woke up a muddleheaded old father’s brain and gave her so much useful information.
But it’s still not enough.
What does that person look like, what’s his background, what are his intentions?
Her wedding announcement with Nalan Ye Jue has been released, how is that person planning to act, and how should she preemptively respond?
While pondering, her phone rang.
She had very few saved numbers, and those who dare to call her in the middle of the night are even rarer.
She steadied herself at the door and said to Wu Zhiming, "Stay calm."
Then she answered: "Lu Yi, what’s up?"
Lu Yi lay weakly on the lawn, his back covered with shards of glass, his breath faint: "Miss Qin, wherever you are, can you please, please hide well and don’t come out, someone wants to harm you..."
Qin Xin’s breath tightened.
Just when she thought about it, it came!
She asked back, "Where are you? Did that person attack you? Send me your location, I’ll go right away!"
Lu Yi’s hand trembled, quickly turning off the location: "Miss Qin, no, don’t come, really, it’s super dangerous... they’re all machines, we can’t beat them..."
Machines?
Is it that person flying back and forth controlling them?
Qin Xin remained silent and quickly opened another app on her phone. In one second, she located Lu Yi’s current location—Nalan Family’s old residence.
No mistake, it’s aimed at her.
No need to rack her brains for countermeasures, whatever demons or ghosts, just go and fight.
Qin Xin: "Hold on. I’ll be there in five minutes."
The distance from the asylum to the Nalan Family’s old residence is typically half an hour by taxi.
However, four minutes is enough for her.
And one more minute, to find some handy fighting tools in Wu Zhiming’s yard.
She had come directly from the operating room, sneaking away only after Nalan Ye Jue fell asleep, and aside from driving a car, she brought nothing else.
Just when she was about to hang up the phone.
Lu Yi suddenly urgently said another sentence, "Miss Qin, I, I have one more thing to ask you."
Qin Xin: "Go ahead."
The loyal little gourd who gave her critical information, she was willing to give him ten seconds of her time.
