My time is running out

"Hello, Wu Yao?" Chen Tao said.

Wu Yao hummed and said, "Well... dear, why did you take the initiative to call me?" Seeing that it was Chen Tao who took the initiative to call her, she seemed a little happy.

Honey?

Chen Tao ignored the title for the time being and said, "No. 1 said that your father plans to dismantle No. 1?"

"There is no such thing." Wu Yao said: "When my dad saw No. 1, he did say that he would dismantle No. 1, but that was just a joke. I guess No. 1 misunderstood."

Wu Yao said: "My grandfather was a scientist and liked to study high-tech things. He wanted to make an artificial human his whole life, but he just couldn't. He passed away..."

"My dad is also a scientist, but he prefers to do business. But my grandfather's dream has always been a worry in my family. You don't know how happy my dad was when he saw No. 1 ”

"That's an artificial man, and that was my grandfather's wish. Many people said that artificial man was impossible to realize. My grandfather said at that time that it could be realized, but he was always denied by the world. When he was dying, he didn't Close your eyes.”

"And this No. 1 is something you lent me, my dear. Even if I die, I won't let my family dismantle it."

No, No. 1 is a high-tech intelligence, there is no way she could misunderstand.

There is only one possibility why No. 1 asked Chen Tao that way, and that is... Wu Yao's father really wanted to take No. 1 apart.

Of course, I just thought about it and didn’t take any action.

Human beings always have many thoughts. When they see a beautiful woman, they want to have it, but that doesn’t mean they will actually do it.

Thinking about it doesn't make it a reality.

But as a robot, No. 1 didn't think so much, so he came to ask Chen Tao.

Chen Tao slowly calmed down.

As a scientist in a family that studies artificial humans, Wu Yao's father would have such thoughts, which is probably the nature of a scientist.

From this perspective, it was indeed Chen Tao who misunderstood.

Chen Tao said: "Sorry, I misunderstood you."

"It's okay." Wu Yao's voice was relaxed. She said, "There are always a lot of misunderstandings between people. It's just that you are my beloved man, so I hope you can trust me more."

Chen Tao was silent.

Obviously, this topic was not something Chen Tao could handle. He said, "That's it for now. Let No. 1 stay at your place for a while. I'll let her come back by herself tomorrow."

"Hmm..." Wu Yao responded.

Chen Tao hung up the phone.

He said: "No. 1, can you hear me?"

"Master, I'm here." The voice of No. 1 came.

Chen Tao said: "You stay at Wu's house for one night and come back tomorrow. Remember, your body is a high-level secret and no unauthorized disassembly and research is allowed."

"OK."

Every part of No. 1's body exceeds the technology that this world should have. If it is used for research, it may be possible to obtain a lot of technologies that are superior to this era.

But the problem is that Chen Tao does not intend to share the technology.

Especially the Wu family. Although Wu Yao and Chen Tao have an ambiguous relationship, the Wu family still supports the existence of the Heavenly Punishment Alliance.

If the Wu family assists the Heavenly Punishment Alliance in acquiring technology, this is not what Chen Tao wants to see.

After giving this order to No. 1, Chen Tao felt relieved.

With No. 1's ability, as long as No. 1 does not actively cooperate, no one can go beyond No. 1's will and forcibly dismantle and study No. 1's body.

That's it.

"Dear." A voice came from beside me.

Chen Tao came back to his senses and looked at Zi Qing beside him.

Zi Qing looked at Chen Tao worriedly and said, "Are you okay?"

Hearing this, Chen Tao smiled and said, "As long as your husband is here, of course everything will be fine."

Zi Qing's face turned slightly red, and she looked at Chen Tao: "Don't make trouble, we are not married yet."

Chen Tao put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Don't worry about formal matters. From my point of view, we are already here."

Zi Qing's face turned redder, and her little head slowly rested on Chen Tao's shoulder. Her delicate face was filled with happiness and joy.

Chen Tao stroked her hair and continued walking in the park with her.

It's getting late.

Dark night enveloped the entire park.

Too dark.

Zi Qing suggested going home.

Chen Tao didn't refuse either.

The two returned to the villa.

"Owner."

No. 5 stood in front of the door and looked at Chen Tao. She came over to greet him, looked at Chen Tao respectfully, and said, "Master, there is a person outside who calls himself the Black Swan Organization and says he wants to see you."

Chen Tao's heart skipped a beat.

Black swan?

His eyebrows wrinkled slightly.

The Black Swan people are here?

Come to hunt him down?

Chen Tao slowly suppressed a different emotion in his heart, which was an uneasy emotion.

As a slum dweller, Chen Tao has lived under the management of Black Swan for a long time.

He has a natural fear of black swans.

But now Chen Tao has understood part of Nebula's power, and for him, the Black Swan no longer needs to be feared.

There are conflicting emotions.

Chen Tao adjusted his mood and said, "Where are the people?"

No. 5 said: "Waiting outside the gate, I have been waiting for more than three hours."

It's been more than three hours... I'm quite patient.

Chen Tao said: "Check to see if there is anything dangerous. Collect pistols and other items before bringing them in."

"Okay." No. 5 nodded slightly.

Chen Tao walked into the villa and sat down on the sofa.

"Old...husband..."

Chen Tao was slightly startled, and he turned his head to look at his side.

Ziqing's face flushed slightly, and she stood there nervously. She said, "Should I get out of the way?"

Hearing this, Chen Tao smiled and said, "Well, you go to the house and wait for a while."

"Well." Ziqing turned and walked towards the stairs.

"That husband just now was quite nice."

Ziqing paused, she felt her face getting hot, and hurried upstairs.

Seeing Ziqing's somewhat escaping back, Chen Tao smiled.

He felt much more relaxed.

He looked ahead, his expression recovered, and he calmed down.

So...the people from the Black Swan sneaked into the Tal District and came to find him. What was the reason?

It was fine that the people from the Heaven Punishment Alliance came to find him before, but now the people from the Black Swan also came, which was beyond Chen Tao's expectation.

At this time.

There was a knock at the door.

"Knock, knock..."

"Master, I'm No. 5, I've brought someone."

Chen Tao said, "Come in."

The door opened.

No. 5 walked in from outside, and there were two people behind No. 5.

When Chen Tao saw it, his eyebrows relaxed.

Acquaintances.

The people who came were two women.

Chen Tao had actually seen both of these women.

One was Lin Na, the commander of the Black Swan, and the other was Qin Xiaoyan.

Of course, Chen Tao didn't know the names of the two girls.

But Chen Tao knew their faces.

The more impressive ones.

Both women wore the same black uniform, but the difference was.

Lin Na had long hair, while Qin Xiaoyan had a short haircut.

Lin Na looked at Chen Tao, expressionless as before, looking quite serious: "Mr. Chen, we meet again."

Hearing this, Chen Tao crossed his arms across his chest, looked at Lin Na and said, "The shoulder has recovered well."

Lin Na frowned and held the shoulder that Chen Tao had shot through with his gun before.
