My Yandere Mechanical Wife

The interrogation room fell silent.

The scene was so awkward that Fang Qi felt like he was digging his toes out of a three-bedroom apartment!

His heartfelt "marriage proposal" still resonates to this day...

But none of the expected blushing, racing hearts, wildly fluctuating data, and overload-induced smoke occurred!

The silver-haired girl simply raised her excessively delicate face, her heterochromatic eyes staring blankly into the distance.

He didn't even... make eye contact with him!

Her gaze lingered on his chin, as if she hadn't grasped the meaning of his previous statement at all!

The affectionate curve at the corner of Fang Qi's mouth...

Now it's a dilemma: hanging it up is bad, and taking it back is bad too!

It's stuck in this limbo!

...No, crazy woman?

I proposed!

Please, give me some response!

Even if you turn evil on the spot, just drag me away and lock me in the basement!

What's with this "program not responding" crash look on your computer?!

He felt that his previously overflowing confidence was about to be shattered by this crazy woman's reaction!

"cough."

A soft cough broke the silence.

Fang Qi turned his head to look, a little stiffly...

Gu Xi was leaning on the edge of the table with one hand, the other hand loosely clenched into a fist and pressed against her lips, her shoulder...

It's trembling slightly, suspiciously!

Fang Qi: "..."

Gu Xi's light brown eyes were curved, clearly showing the words "Let's watch the show!"

Seeing Fang Qi looking over, she quickly tried to suppress her smile and coughed lightly.

But that mischievous glint in his eye couldn't be hidden no matter what!

"Ahem, Mr. Fang."

She cleared her throat, her voice still carrying a lingering smile:

"Your Riko might... need some time to process this kind of 'important information'."

She deliberately emphasized the words "important information," her eyes darting between Fang Qi and the still dazed Li Guang.

Then she couldn't help but purse her lips.

Fang Qi's lips twitched, he chuckled dryly twice, and then awkwardly lowered his arm from around the silver-haired girl.

"Ah, yes, she..."

"Her emotional intelligence is quite delicate, and it requires a lot of processing power! Understanding such a complex promise definitely takes some time... haha!"

His dry explanation was something even he didn't believe.

Crazy woman... I finally decided to take the initiative and win you over...

You actually let me lose so completely!

Depend on!

This is such a blow to a child's self-confidence!

Gu Xi clearly didn't believe it either, but she didn't continue teasing.

She deftly pulled a plain white business card from the pocket of her police uniform, flicked it with her wrist, and handed it to Fang Qi.

"Anyway, we owe you all a lot for your help this time."

Gu Xi's voice still trembled slightly, and the smile in her eyes hadn't faded:

"Here's my contact information. Feel free to contact me if you need anything in the future. For police matters, or..."

She paused, her gaze sweeping almost imperceptibly over Li Guang's empty, pretty face.

"AI-related questions are fine too. I have a close friend who's an expert in this field; she might be able to offer some professional advice."

The business card was handed out naturally, at just the right distance.

Fang Qi felt relieved and quickly reached out to take it!

That's fine! At least I've made some kind of connection with Gu Xi!

But in that instant—

"Whoosh!"

A creamy-white afterimage flashed by!

"Smack."

That familiar slingshot reached out with incredible speed!

He quickly slapped Fang Qi's hand away!

And that plain white business card...

It landed steadily in the palm of that slender hand!

Fang Qi's hand froze in mid-air, his fingertips still poised to catch it...

But all they got was thin air!

He turned his head stiffly.

Li Guang had already slightly bowed, gently holding the business card.

Then, facing Gu Xi, who was also somewhat taken aback, he bowed with just the right amount of pressure.

"Thank you, Officer Gu."

Her voice was steady and her pitch was standard.

...but you couldn't hear the slightest fluctuation in his emotions!

"Master's social information will be managed and kept safe by Liguang. Liguang will accept this business card."

After speaking, she straightened up, held the business card in both hands, and pressed it against her chest.

His movements were meticulous, and the curve of his lips was so precise it was like a template!

The data stream within the crimson eyes... continued to rotate slowly and sluggishly.

Fang Qi: "..."

Gu Xi: "..."

The air fell silent once more.

Fang Qi's outstretched hand froze in mid-air...

It was so incredibly embarrassing!

...Crazy woman!

What exactly are you planning to do today?!

He felt that his previous ambition to "change the course of offense and defense" had...

Li Guang's series of bizarre actions left them in disarray!

Why are you acting so strangely now that I'm trying to win you over?

The policewoman was the first to react.

She raised an eyebrow, her gaze shifting from Li Guang's perfectly smiling face to Fang Qi's awkward and stiff expression...

Then... she pursed her lips again.

"It seems..."

She drew out her words, her tone slightly mocking:

"Is that 'advanced alert mode' in action again? They won't even let me have direct contact when I hand them my business card?"

"...Yes! That's it!"

Fang Qi went down the steps!

While laughing it off, he forcefully pressed down on the silver-haired girl's hand, which was still clutching the business card!

He naturally grasped her slightly cool wrist:

"Officer Gu, look, this mode hasn't been deactivated yet, it's getting a bit out of control... I'll go back and reboot it immediately, a deep reboot!"

These words were truly from his heart!

He really wants to go back and restart this weird and creepy madwoman!

At least when they were jealous before, it had some humanity involved; now…

It's like a broken robot!

This is so bizarre!

Could it be that the system malfunctioned because of a confused memory?

Gu Xi clearly didn't intend to delve into it. She waved her hand and couldn't help but chuckle as she said:

"Alright, alright, the statement is done. We'll contact you if there are any further developments. Now take your 'baby' home."

"Okay! Thank you, Officer Gu!"

Fang Qi felt like he had been granted a pardon and pulled Li Guang outside!

Although the process wasn't very smooth, the main quest was completed!

Then let's go quickly!

That's so awkward!

The silver-haired girl was being pulled along by him, but her steps remained steady.

She lowered her head slightly, her gaze seemingly falling on the wrist that Fang Qi was holding... or perhaps not.

That exquisitely beautiful face, with its gentle smile... it looked as if it had been welded on!

From beginning to end, nothing has changed!

As I stepped out of the police station, the scorching afternoon sun hit me in the face...

Fang Qi finally breathed a long sigh of relief!

He released Li Guang's wrist, couldn't help but rub his temples and look at Li Guang.

The silver-haired girl still wore that mechanical smile, even her gaze...

They were all looking straight ahead!

They didn't even look at him!

Fang Qi felt a little nervous.

This crazy woman's current state is just like...

Like...

A very basic, low-level AI that was pre-programmed with "yandere" attributes!

She was meticulously carrying out the instructions related to yandere!

Gone is the vibrancy of before, gone are the subtle changes in eyes and the upturn of the lips, the data stream has gone off the rails...

It's just mechanically "playing" its part!

She plays the role of a "yandere" character that was predetermined in the first place!

Seriously, that's right...!

What kind of "legacy" did Riko from last time leave her?!

Could it be... that they simply overwrote her personality?!

Could his radiant wife really be broken?!

So even if he reverts to a previous save file... wouldn't that be useless?!

"Sizzle—"

At that moment, a very faint sound reached his ears.

Fang Qi was taken aback and turned his head to look.

In the hand of the still smiling silver-haired girl...

That plain white business card had been neatly torn in two!

But she didn't stop!

She stacked the two torn halves together and slowly, evenly... tore them apart again!

"Sizzle."

Four pieces.

Fold it up, then tear it.

"Sizzle."

Eight pieces.

Her movements were slow, even graceful.

Her slender fingers were steady and strong, and each tear followed an almost straight line.

Sunlight shone on her lowered profile, and a few strands of silver hair were lifted by the breeze, brushing past the corners of her calm eyes.

This scene was beautiful, yet eerie...

It also sends chills down your spine!

Fang Qi opened his mouth, his throat a little dry: "Li Guang, you..."

Just as Li Guang finished tearing the last piece, she realized that Li Guang had just finished.

The original business card... had turned into a small pile of white scraps of paper in her palm.

She finally raised her eyes, her heterochromatic pupils appearing incredibly clear in the sunlight, reflecting Fang Qi's somewhat astonished face.

But her gaze didn't meet Fang Qi's; she simply looked straight ahead.

It's as if you're looking into a void!

Her voice remained steady and gentle:

"Liguang has recorded Officer Gu Xi's contact information in the core storage area and made a permanent backup."

She opened her palm, and tiny pieces of paper, torn apart, scattered in the wind.

Therefore, there is no need to keep physical business cards.

She clapped her hands lightly, brushing away the last bit of paper from her palm... her movements were surprisingly quick!

Then, she flashed a standard smile in Fang Qi's direction!

Her lips curved perfectly upwards, and her eyes curved into crescent moons.

"If the master wants to contact Officer Gu, he can ask Li Guang at any time."

But her gaze...

But the focus still wasn't on his eyes!

She was still looking straight ahead!

Because of the height difference, at this moment, she seemed to be quietly looking at Fang Qi's chin!

"Liguang will provide you with all the information you need."

Her tone was calm, as if... she really was an AI without any emotions!

Fang Qi looked at her perfect smiling face...

I felt a faint sense of fear slowly rising from my heart!

It's not the fear of having your legs broken by a yandere like before...

Rather, it is a deep-seated fear of humanoid creatures!

It's... the uncanny valley effect!

This is...

It's no longer just a simple matter of "something not being right"!

It's a program malfunction! It's a bug! It's a virus!

In the past, even when Li Guang wanted to destroy her "love rival's" things, she would do so with vivid emotions!

Anger, resentment, and obsessive possessiveness!

Even the morbid ecstasy during his descent into darkness...

They were all fresh and piping hot!

But now...

In the previous game, she went to great lengths to leave behind an "inheritance," was it all so that she could become someone else in this game...?

A more advanced humanoid yandere program?!

Fang Qi even began to doubt the silver-haired girl in front of him...

Is she still his crazy wife after all?

"Owner?"

The silver-haired girl tilted her head, her silver hair sliding down her shoulder.

She seemed to notice Fang Qi's prolonged daze and stiffness, but her beautiful face still did not meet his gaze.

Silently staring into the void ahead.

"What's wrong?"

"Are you feeling unwell?"
