Chapter 365 – Jackpot
Inside the quiet swimming complex, Chen Yu hugged Little Peach tightly in his arms as he asked, “Is there a way to revive you?”
“There is. You can r-remove my processor and install it on a new body.”
“But that won’t be you, right?”
“…Yes.” Biting her lip, Little Peach said, “I might not remember you anymore. It’ll be difficult for you to fill up my favorability again.”
“…”
Lowering Little Peach, Chen Yu scratched his head irritably.
“Mr. Chen… Can you hold my hand?”
“Mhm.”
“How unfortunate…” Looking at the ceiling of the swimming complex, Little Peach’s eyes dimmed as she said, “If only I wasn’t in a male body the first time we met.”
“…”
“Had I been in a female body right from the beginning, everything…would’ve been different, right? How frustrating.”
“…”
“Mr. Chen, you must make sure to take my processor. Even if the other me won’t be me, at least my processor can still be with you and continue protecting you for me.”
Seeing this scene, Chen Yike, who had been spectating from a side, couldn’t help but turn away with teary eyes.
“Actually, I know that you’ve been rejecting me all this time because whenever you see me, you will remember my first body…”
“That’s not true.”
“Haha. Although you’re lying to me, I still feel very happy. Cough, cough…”
“Stop talking.”
“I want to. If I don’t say it now, I won’t get another chance in the future.” Hoarsely, Little Peach said, “I made a big mistake that I never dared to tell you about. Can you forgive me for it?”
“Yes.” Tightening his grip over Little Peach’s hand, Chen Yu gritted his teeth and nodded. “I’ll forgive you for everything.”
“I…I got addicted to gambling and lost a lot of money to the husky.”
“It doesn’t matter. You earned that money. It doesn’t matter even if you lose all of it.”
“Really?”
“Really.”
“You really are a kind person.” Closing her eyes, Little Peach exhaled with great effort. “Lastly… Can you satisfy a wish of mine?”
“Yes. I’ll give you whatever you want.”
“Hug me tightly…”
Chen Yu hugged Little Peach with all his might without hesitation, ignoring the stinging pain caused by the sparks landing on his body.
“I really…really…really don’t want to leave you…”
“…”
“I want to cry, but I can’t. Why am I a robot…”
“…”
“Goodbye, Chen Yu…” Her eyelids lifting slightly, Little Peach struggled to lift her head.
Chen Yu knew what she wanted. Taking a deep breath, he closed his eyes and kissed her.
“Thank you…”
“…”
“Ho…ho…hohoho… Hahahahaha!”
Chen Yu: “?”
…
“What? Chen Yu was attacked at the swimming pool?!”
Inside an unlisted courtyard in Beijing…
The middle-aged team leader’s eyes widened in shock when he heard the urgent report from his subordinate, creaking sounds coming from the phone he held. “Is Chen Yu injured?”
“The target is safe and sound, but…”
“But what? Don’t drag your words.”
“But that female assistant seems to be injured badly.”
“Has Chen Yu discovered your presence? If he did, call an ambulance immediately.”
“He hasn’t noticed us yet. We saw the attack from the surveillance room. We’ve already taken control of the swimming complex as well. Also, Leader, the female assistant seems to be a robot. I don’t think calling an ambulance will do anything.”
Sure enough, she really is a robot… The situation is still salvageable so long as Chen Yu isn’t injured. We’ll be in big trouble if he dies or gets injured. The special organization backing him definitely won’t take the offense in kind. Regardless, a variable has now appeared in the situation we went through great lengths to stabilize… After pacing around the room a few times, the middle-aged team leader’s thoughts gradually stabilized. “What were you people doing?! How can you grant someone the necessary conditions to attack Chen Yu?! That’s a dereliction of duty!”
“I-I’m sorry… I will hand in a reflection report by tonight and go along with the organization’s arrangements. But, Leader, more importantly, what should we do now? We’ve already requested the other teams for reinforcements.”
“How many people does the enemy have? Where are they from? Has Chen Yu subdued them yet?”
“We still aren’t certain at this time. Through the video recording, we only know that the attacker is one robot.”
“A robot?” Hearing this, the middle-aged team leader instantly thought of a bunch of scenes he saw in sci-fi films. “Could it be a force hostile to the organization backing Chen Yu?”
“We still aren’t certain at this time,” the agent on the other side of the phone repeated.
Taking a seat, the middle-aged team leader thought over the matter for a long time before speaking in a deep tone, “Send the surveillance recording to me as well as Staff Teams One, Two, and Three. The current situation seems a bit complicated, so don’t act rashly for now. I’ll be heading to Jinzhou City immediately.”
“Yes, sir!”
“I’m guessing Chen Yu will be wiping the memories of everyone present at the venue. Cordon off the area and do your best to coordinate with him.”
“Yes, sir.”
“What are they doing now?”
“Are you referring to Chen Yu?”
“Yes.”
“Um…” After a moment of silence, the agent said, “He’s kissing.”
The middle-aged team leader: “?”
“He’s kissing the injured assistant. Uh, they started fighting with each other!”
“??”
“Not good! Chen Yu tore off the female assistant’s head!”
“???”
…
Indeed. Chen Yu had torn off Little Peach’s head. He was even dangling her head in his hand.
“M-Mr. Chen, stop swinging me. I’m getting a little dizzy.”
“Why else would I be swinging you for?” Chen Yu said, gnashing his teeth. “It seems you’ve gotten pretty good at playing tricks, huh? You’re even toying with me now?”
“I didn’t trick you,” Little Peach said innocently.
“Didn’t you say you would die?”
“Yes. I can indeed die, but I never said I would die from such a small injury.”
“Are you spouting nonsense with me?”
“Hahaha.” Little Peach laughed contentedly. “Anyway, I really hit the jackpot this time. You actually took the initiative to kiss me!”
“I’ll shatter your head if you continue speaking.”
“I really will die if you do that. If that happens, nobody will be able to block bullets for you in the future. Speaking of which, what kind of bullet was that? It packed such a punch. It even penetrated my body.”
Lowering his head, Chen Yu glanced at the shrapnel on the floor and said, “They’re dumdum bullets, special ones at that. If one of them hit me, I would’ve been blown to smithereens. Dammit. Who’s this cruel bastard?”
“If I hadn’t secretly followed after your little sisters, you would’ve been met with tragedy today. See? You should bring me wherever you go. Compared to me, what can that other woman do for you aside from giving birth to your children?”
“Huh?” Xing Biqi, who had remained standing silently at a side all this time, didn’t know how she should react when she heard Little Peach’s words.
Thud.
At this time, Chen Erke finally couldn’t stand the stimulus of seeing a disembodied head talking anymore and fainted from fright. Fortunately, Xing Biqi, who stood behind her, instinctively caught her falling body.
“Are you sure you’re fine?” Chen Yu asked as he tapped on Little Peach’s forehead. “If you are in any danger, I can get the other side to send over a new body immediately.”
“I’m fine. If you place me under the sun, I can live until the sun expands into a red giant.”
“OK. In that case, I’ll deal with the problems at hand first.”
After saying so, Chen Yu picked up the Amnesia Bat and looked at Chen Yike.
“Brother.” Taking a step back, Chen Yike asked, “W-What are you trying to do?”
“You must be filled with curiosity, no? That’s right. I am Transdimensional’s UP. Your speculations were correct. Unfortunately, there’s no point in being right if you can’t remember it.”
Thump!
Thud!
After catching Chen Yike’s falling body and carefully setting her on the ground, Chen Yu turned to look at Xing Biqi.
“Chen Yu, so you really are Transdimensional’s UP.” Looking at the unconscious Chen Yike, Xing Biqi lightly bit her lip and asked, “Is that an advanced technology that erases memories?”
“Yes.”
“Am I going to get struck as well?”
“Yes. It’s best if you don’t get involved in this kind of thing. Don’t worry. The Amnesia Bat won’t have any side effects. On the contrary, it’ll further develop your brain. You’ve also experienced it several times before already.”
“Y-You knocked me out in the past as well?” Xing Biqi asked in surprise.
“That’s right. Even your grandparents got a taste of it.”
“If there is a chance in the future…I want you to tell me everything.”
“I will.”
After saying so, Chen Yu swung the Amnesia Bat and knocked the girl unconscious. He also gave Chen Erke a tap on the head while he was at it.
This really is a godly tool. Storing away the Amnesia Bat, Chen Yu lined the three unconscious girls alongside each other. If not for this thing, Second and Third Eldest would’ve most likely been scared silly… Huh? Where’s Third Eldest?
Thinking up to this point, Chen Yu suddenly came to a realization. Immediately, he looked around in a panic, only to find Chen Sanke doggy-paddling in the pool still.
Splash, splash…
Seeing Chen Yu approaching, Chen Sanke swam toward him, pretending as if nothing had happened. She then craned her neck and said, “Meowoo!
“Meowoo…”
