Rescuing the Villainous Boss with a Little Dirty Master

Chapter 82 Can Humanoid Weapons Also Feel Love? (19)

For several days in a row, Jiang Heng would take some time to spend in the observation room of 023. On the fifth day, he finally met the person he was waiting for there.

Why do you always come here?

A familiar voice came from behind, but unlike before, the coldness in the voice was almost tangible.

Jiang Heng looked at 023's head, which suddenly turned back, and did not answer Liang Yin's question.

"I've been thinking about a question lately: should we strip away their emotions before conducting the experiment?"

"No need, what we need is a complete finished product."

"Isn't that necessary?" Jiang Heng retorted, pointing to the glass wall. "These past few days, every time I come here, 023 says one thing to me..."

"What did he say?!"

Before Jiang Heng could finish speaking, Liang Yin rushed behind him, trying to pull him over to get an explanation, but Jiang Heng dodged her in time. He turned around, looking at Liang Yin's suddenly wide eyes, a hint of pity flashing in his own. She seemed stung by his gaze, abruptly turning her head away to avoid his scrutiny, but still insisting on one answer, "What did he say?"

Jiang Heng stared intently at her, not missing a single reaction, and said, word by word, "He said, kill me."

Liang Yin's shoulders trembled. She raised her hand and pressed it tightly against her heart. Her already wide eyes blinked rapidly, as if she could only use this to express her tears because she couldn't shed any more.

She looked at the person huddled inside the glass wall, mouth agape, trying to speak but unable to utter a sound.

"It must be quite painful for a normal person to watch themselves being transformed little by little," Jiang Heng scoffed. "Even more painful than being turned into this inhuman, ghost-like creature."

"Shut up! Shut up!"

Liang Yin managed to squeeze out a sound, but it seemed like that was all she could say. Jiang Heng felt that she not only wanted to shut up herself, but also wanted 023 to stop saying that sentence.

The person in the observation room suddenly sat up, the chains binding his limbs rattling with his movement.

“Look, he’s trapped in this place every day, for people to observe and study. He can’t even commit suicide. He even has to ask me, a researcher, for help. It’s clearly us who have turned him into this.”

"Stop talking! Stop talking..."

Liang Yin pressed herself against the glass wall, scratching at it with her fingers, as if she were the one who was trapped.

023's mouth started opening and closing again, this time looking in Liang Yin's direction.

Liang Yin turned around abruptly to look at Jiang Heng, "What is he saying!"

886 deciphered it for him at the right time. Jiang Heng looked at 023 and felt a pang of sadness. "He said, 'Yinyin, I look too ugly like this. Don't come to see me anymore.'"

Jiang Heng looked at 023, who had turned his back again, and stepped back a few steps to give Liang Yin some space.

Since these robots have been deemed a research failure, other researchers will no longer waste their time coming over.

In the past few days, 023 hasn't just said that one sentence every day. After he realized that Jiang Heng could understand his meaning, perhaps because he was finally able to communicate with someone after a long time, he told Jiang Heng about his origins, which Jiang Heng found absurd at the time.

Rumors circulated that Ji Yan, the youngest son of the wealthy Ji family, died in an accident. Because of his exceptionally good health, he was kidnapped and taken to a research institute, where he remained for five years. Liang Yin was his fiancée. He didn't tell Jiang Heng about this complicated situation, perhaps because he didn't care. He only asked Jiang Heng to pass on a message to his family.

Once Liang Yin had finally calmed down, Jiang Heng looked at her curled-up body on the ground and spoke again.

"Senior Sister Liang, do you still think it's unnecessary to detach them from their emotions?"

"Who cares? Nobody here cares about the test subjects. In their eyes, these people are no different from lab rats."

"You don't care either?" Jiang Heng's voice was icy as she grabbed the person squatting on the ground and pointed at the person inside the glass wall. "And him? Don't you care either? Are you just going to watch him get destroyed without a care in the world?"

Liang Yin's body trembled violently. She pushed Jiang Heng away and fled from this suffocating place.

"Ji Yan, I will find a way to save you."

Jiang Heng looked at the person who still had their back to him. He knew the other person could hear him. "The research institute plans to destroy you. I need your cooperation then..."

The other person didn't turn around until he finished speaking. Just as Jiang Heng was about to go back and think of another way, the sound of the chain shaking rang out. He stopped in his tracks and saw Ji Yan raise his mechanical hand and give him a thumbs up.

At that moment, a glimmer of light finally appeared on Jiang Heng's face, which had been gloomy for several days.

At the Ji family mansion, Ji Xianming had just returned home when he suddenly received a message on his personal terminal from an unknown number. The sender claimed that his youngest son was still alive. Ji Xianming immediately thought it was a prank and was about to order his men to investigate the source of the message when the next message from the sender made his expression change.

His hands trembled as he tried to video call, but the other end refused. He could only type, "Who are you!"

"Mr. Ji, someone will come to your door tomorrow to answer your questions in person. This matter is of great importance, and for Ji Yan's safety, we hope you will keep it confidential."

Ji Xianming studied the message word by word. Xiao Yan was in danger! His eyes suddenly turned red. The person who had been "dead" for five years had suddenly come back to life. He couldn't imagine what the other person had gone through in the past five years, that it was only now that news of him had reached home.

"Sir, what's wrong?"

The butler, who was called into the study, noticed his pale face and was somewhat worried. Since the young master's death, his health had been poor, and he had been needing medication for the past few years. He wondered what had happened; the man's current expression was remarkably similar to when he first learned of the young master's passing.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of Xiao Yan."

Ji Xianming rubbed his face to calm himself down. Now was not the time for him to be depressed. Everything would be clear tomorrow.

Meanwhile, in A-01, Qin Yaoming had already led his men into the two-story building in Tu Nan, where they subdued the man on the dining table and confiscated the gun he had just taken.

The thin man seen in the surveillance footage was also apprehended.

"Who sent you?!"

Tu Nan struggled desperately on the table, but couldn't move an inch.

Qin Yaoming slapped him on the back of the head, "Behave yourself!"

Until he was taken aboard the starship, Tu Nan had no idea which side had captured him.

They tied the man up, threw him into the guard cell, and injected him with a drug developed by Wen Lin. There was no antidote, so this man was guaranteed not to wake up even after returning to Sakanan Star.
