In this cyberpunk era, why are you still playing the traditional villain?

Yes, it seems that after my defeat, I was captured by that treacherous Xu Shi... and my brother, my brother...

She finally regained some of her memories, but none of them were pleasant. The urge to cry lingered in her mind, causing Shen Qin considerable pain.

She tried to stand up, but found that she couldn't muster any strength at all.

"Do you need my help, Miss Shen Qin?"

Just then, a deep male voice sounded in my ear.

!

Shen Qin recognized that voice all too well; it was Xu Shi!

"Xu Shi!"

She angrily raised her head, searching for the source of the irritating voice, "Where are you? Come out here!"

"Here it is."

With Xu Shi's slightly teasing reply, the laboratory door slowly opened.

He walked in, holding a cane and wearing a white coat, accompanied by two girls. The taller one had a smile on her face, while the shorter one with pigtails looked around curiously.

This was Gu Yi's first time visiting the engineering department, which was much bigger and more luxurious than her own department... Wait, it seems she's never even visited her own cybersecurity department. She's always been working in Xu Shi's basement, and she only communicates with those useless team members remotely...

"How are you feeling, Miss Shen Qin?"

Xu Shi's attention was entirely on her. He adjusted his glasses and gave a bright smile.

"...It couldn't be better!"

Shen Qin gritted her teeth, and with a strength she didn't know she possessed, she lunged forward, shouting, "Die!"

This was hatred etched into her bones; she and this guy were mortal enemies!

Even if it costs me my life, I'll drag him down to hell with me!

just.

Her all-out attack was easily blocked by Xu Shi. His cane pressed against her chest, and as if by magic, it instantly drained her strength.

"It seems that Miss Shen Qin is recovering quite well."

Xu Shi laughed happily, put away his cane, and let Shen Qin kneel down in front of him once again.

Shen Qin's gaze was venomous. She hated the way this man looked—playful, mischievous, and with a hint of…admiration?

A lecherous old man's appreciation with ill intentions.

?

Shen Qin then realized that she wasn't wearing anything at all! Not to mention clothes, she didn't even have an inch of cloth to cover herself!

"...Don't look!"

Without thinking twice, she quickly covered her private parts, gritting her teeth and saying in shame and anger, "Is this how you humiliate me? How ridiculous."

"Oh~ if it's ridiculous, why are you protecting it?"

Xu Shi spread his hands and winked at Jiang Chengcheng, who understood and handed her a white coat.

"..."

Shen Qin was extremely embarrassed; she was in a situation where accepting the answer was just as awkward as not accepting it.

After a struggle with her conscience, she turned her face away, snatched the clothes, and quickly put them on.

Damn it, I must gouge out this guy's eyes when I get the chance!

"What exactly do you want to do?"

However, this little incident calmed her down considerably after her initial shame and anger. She knelt on the ground and stared coldly at the people in front of her.

"I'm just here to inspect the results."

Xu Shi pulled up a chair and sat down. "During the time you were unconscious, I asked Chengcheng to do a little modification to you."

"The good news is that the surgery was a success, and you are now a lovely boy... oh no, anyway, the surgery was a success."

"...What did you do to me?!"

Shen Qin wasn't in the mood for jokes with him. Upon hearing this, she felt a pang of anxiety and subconsciously looked for changes in herself.

But strangely, she didn't find anything unusual, and there were no signs of her body being replaced. The only thing was that her head still hurt a little... He said "modification", what was modified?

Not only did Shen Qin not notice anything different, but Gu Yi also didn't see anything unusual. Her only impression was that this girl had a great figure, with a curvy figure... Her slightly sickly face only made her look more pitiful.

Even a girl like her would be envious, let alone Xu Shi.

That's just how people are; they envy what they lack (not really).

"So what did you do to her?"

Miss Black Rabbit whispered to Xu Shi, "Tell me, please."

"Who told you not to get up early?"

Xu Shi made a face at her, "If you woke up five minutes earlier, you would know everything... But for now, it's better to wait for our Miss Shen Qin to tell you herself."

You're something else!

Shen Qin knew perfectly well that he was humiliating her, just like when the white-bearded tutor forced her to read a letter of self-criticism in front of him when she was a child... This kind of behavior was disgusting, and it was indeed something that only a despicable person like him would do.

More importantly, she herself didn't know, and always felt that nothing had changed... But she knew in her heart that Xu Shi could not have done nothing, otherwise why would she be in the nutrient tank?

Gradually, she also became somewhat lost, and even felt a sense of fear for no apparent reason.

Xu Shi wasn't in a hurry. He crossed his legs and quietly enjoyed everything. He even took out the "beacon" and played with it in his hand, constantly stimulating Shen Qin's fragile and sensitive nerves.

"well done."

He praised Jiang Chengcheng, and the less Shen Qin could feel it, the more it proved that her transformation was successful, and naturally she became one with Shen Qin.

"Your idea is great!"

Jiang Chengcheng smiled modestly and leaned against him to be his cushion. "You're both bad and good. There's no one worse than you."

It's clear that she felt quite accomplished, which shows just how difficult the transformation was.

"I like to hear that."

Xu Shi was very pleased and unceremoniously pulled her over and kissed her.

Sure enough, men's words are deceiving; his complaints about his back in the morning were all fake!

Their deep affection left Gu Yi and Shen Qin bewildered and conflicted.

Gu Yi just felt that Xu was such a bastard, why didn't he kiss me... no, why didn't he tell me? He's so annoying for keeping me in suspense!

Shen Qin grew increasingly terrified; she was the one who had been transformed! But she had no idea what had happened, and fear began to spread slowly through her heart.

Their eyes met briefly before quickly looking away.

"...Okay, okay, I was just kidding. I didn't actually change you."

After cuddling with Jiang Chengcheng for a while, Xu Shi stretched contentedly. "Were you scared? Haha, want to go for a walk?"

"..."

Even a fool wouldn't believe that, but unfortunately, Shen Qin couldn't refuse his invitation.

Or rather, she didn't want to refuse—although she didn't know what the other party was up to, getting out was better than being locked up here. She didn't want to be stuffed back into the cabin. The more space she had to move around, the more opportunities she could find.

Unfortunately, given her current condition... the only thing Shen Qin could confirm was that the other party must have used some method to suppress her superpowers, otherwise, the three of them wouldn't be enough for her to fight with one hand.

It seems that following them is the only option right now.

After silently considering it in her mind, she quietly accepted another set of proper clothes.

What's annoying is that the changing process isn't private at all; Xu Shi can see everything without missing a single detail.

hateful!

Shen Qin gritted her teeth but had no choice but to pretend he didn't exist. She quickly changed into her old "Snake Ring" uniform and followed behind the group, cautiously looking for any opportunity to take advantage of.

Unfortunately, such an opportunity didn't seem to exist—they said this was the "Snake Ring" group's building? But Shen Qin had never been here before. The winding, intricate structure alone was enough to make her just-awakened brain ache, and she could hardly concentrate.

I have no idea what he's going to do.

She walked for an unknown amount of time, until she felt her legs had become thinner, before finally escaping the maze-like winding path and arriving at a relatively open area.

"Where is this? What...what do you mean?"

Shen Qin finally couldn't hold back and blurted out the question.

"Here..."

Xu Shi turned around, looking at her with a half-smile, "This is... damn it!"

Before he could finish speaking, his pupils suddenly constricted sharply.

Through his eyes, Shen Qin could clearly see the reflection of a person.

Looking back, he saw a man in black wearing a lightweight exoskeleton armor, wielding a battle blade, charging towards him.

"Xu Shi! You have committed countless evils, why don't you die!"

The man in black roared in a deep voice and appeared in front of him in no time.

The blade, gleaming with a cold light, was about to fall.

Hey?

Are they one of our own?

Shen Qin didn't react for a moment.

But at this moment.

She suddenly felt as if her suppressed abilities had been unleashed, and she was suddenly filled with strength.

This should have been a good thing, but she wasn't very happy about it.

Because she found herself suddenly and uncontrollably standing in front of Xu Shi, blocking the attack of the man in black.

A deep wound was cut on my right arm, but it was quickly repaired by my body's healing ability, leaving only a little pain.

Why... do I need to protect him?
