Planet of Sand and Oasis of Iron

Chapter 401 400. Plans can't keep up with changes, but as long as we can move forward...

I waited until the concert was over and the backstage staff were busy again. The noisy sounds outside were accompanied by someone opening and closing doors, and then falling on the bed to end it.

Apart from preparing for concerts, rehearsing or making other work arrangements, she usually does not need to contact anyone, which can be regarded as her personal time.

Although the communication device sent to her only contained filtered messages, and she could only read the messages from viewers on the message board at most, this was the most comfortable rest for her.

Moreover, after performing for such a long time, Miss Nana was extremely tired. She lay on the bed motionless and didn't even have time to drink water.

She obviously didn't know that she could only rest for two hours at most before being dragged to a "private concert".

The short rest was suddenly interrupted. Miss Nana looked up suddenly and saw a strange man walking out of the side door.

Nana rolled over, the quilt propped up against her head. She stared at him as if she had entered absolute defense mode under the covers. "Are you a fanatical supporter?"

"No, I'm a security guard."

"You're not a security guard. I've seen all the security guards, and none of them look like you."

Cypher was silent for a few seconds, then said, "I'm... a corporate saboteur. My main job is to destroy a company from the inside and cause it to collapse."

"Cool... So, which direction do you want to start from?"

If you say she wasn't alert, she immediately knew to wrap herself in the quilt to increase her defense. But if you say she was alert, she chose the quilt instead of the eyebrow razor on the table.

Seifer thought for a few seconds in silence: "Aren't you worried that I'm going to start with your life?"

"No, that's not the case. Those cold-blooded killers on the show would approach their victims silently and kill them cleanly and efficiently!"

"You walked out slowly, without any ropes or strange wires, weapons, or anything like that in your hands. So you just wanted to talk to me, am I right?"

Seifer crossed his arms. "That makes some sense, but I'm not completely lying. After all, destroying an entertainment company isn't something that can be done overnight. The most efficient way would be to kidnap a big star like you and plunge them into chaos..."

"Hey! That's how it's played out on the show, and then the poor heroine falls in love with the kidnapper..."

What on earth did the entertainment company show her every day? Sefer shook his head.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door. "Ms. Nana, you have a small concert in three hours. It won't be long. Can you hold on?"

"Eh? An encore?... I'm so tired—"

"Don't be willful. The people who are attending your concert are the company's major investors. Perform well, and you will have more resources and even the opportunity to move up to the next level."

The agent finished speaking and waited for Miss Nana to reluctantly agree before leaving. She didn't mention anything else during the entire process.

Miss Nana... was also very special. She didn't even mention that there was someone else in the room.

"Why don't you let someone come in and rescue you? I'm a stranger."

"Well—because you always give me a familiar feeling, as if we just met this morning and are meeting again this afternoon. And when you stand so far away and talk to me, there's no sense of danger."

The ability to judge people is also very accurate.

During the call, Leica was trying to calm herself down - being able to communicate with her favorite star so closely (through the screen) made her accidentally a little too happy.

"Huh... Red Crossbow, should we show her the evidence? Considering she's never been exposed to this kind of intelligence, she might be mentally..."

Maybe he would lose control of his emotions, but living in such a world, even a three-year-old child has to figure out how to survive. Sefer told Laika that he would show it in a more tactful way.

"Ms. Nana, I have a question - how much do you know about entertainment companies?"

"Let me think about it..." She blinked in some confusion, her thin, pink-glowing lips slightly opened, as if to attract people to come closer.

She nodded quickly. "As expected, it's a very bad company. They suddenly added a performance like this. I guess they think my long-term value is not enough and they want to squeeze me a little bit?" That's not all.

But she is indeed very smart as she can still understand the company's problems in such an information-filtering environment.

"In that case... let me put it this way, I actually have some hatred towards the entertainment company, so I sneaked in here to investigate, and now I have a piece of evidence in my hands."

"Ms. Nana, what do you think of your dancers?"

"Hmm... the more rigid company staff? I don't interact much with them. We only meet when we need to perform on stage."

As she spoke, she continued to roll up the quilt, her face, which was already dry of sweat, smiling with a hint of regret: "They never pay attention to what I say, just like they are robots."

"That's a good guess, but the reality may be more cruel than you think."

Cypher thought about it and decided not to be so blunt: "Next, I'm going to show you someone, but please don't scream, get hysterical, or make too much noise."

"If you are likely to do any of the above, I will use extraordinary measures."

He took out the pistol he was issued and switched it to silent mode: "You won't die, but it might hurt a little."

"Hmm...! I'm ready. Who is it, and where are they from...?"

Come from here.

In front of Miss Nana, Seifer straightened up slightly, and the security uniform fell off first, followed by the body made of skin, and then the sophisticated mechanical structure opened up.

Inside the mechanical structure was a beautiful woman with an expression so cold that she showed no reaction to external objects. She was only wearing a tight-fitting one-piece swimsuit.

Judging from her age, she should still be in school, but she fell out of the perfect groove and landed on the soft carpet with only a slight sound.

Her folded arms and legs relaxed, and she lay prone on the ground like a puppet without a spring. But soon, she slowly stood up, calmly standing there with her hands hanging down, motionless.

"This is--"

Subconsciously, she wanted to shout out loud, but then she remembered her promise. Miss Nana quickly covered her mouth with her hands, holding the sound in her throat and not daring to shout too loudly.

Cypher closed his body, grabbed the skin and put it back in place, then pulled up the clothes. "This is one of your dancers, and the target I just brought out."

"Take a good look at her. Do you sense anything's wrong?"

There was breathing, but no other reaction. Miss Nana quickly rolled up the quilt and came over, carefully reaching out her hand and touching the other person's cheek.

...It's a little cold, but it has body temperature, it's a living person!

"This is your dancer, but please turn to the back... Oh, I just saw this too. This is how the emotional brain-computer interface is installed."

Following his words, Miss Nana moved behind the motionless dancer. Her long, lush hair was lifted by Cypher, and the lower part of her head, near her spine...

It was not skin, but a piece of curved metal material. There was a faint light flickering inside, as if it was in operation.

“Is this really a robot…?!”

"No, only the brain part is a machine, the rest is a human being, a natural person."

After hearing what Seifer revealed, Miss Nana's face turned pale, and after a few seconds, she turned around and rushed into the bathroom.

Probably went to vomit.
