"Okay, I'll contact you again in fifteen minutes."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Jinxiang contacted the contact person on the Isaac side.
Under the cover of night, the portly, down-on-his-luck middle-aged man listened to the promises and rewards from the Isaacs, his face beaming with joy as he nodded repeatedly, his wig covering his bald head falling off.
----------
Chu Yinan and Ishihara Yui had arrived at the dock on the other side of the river long ago, and were in the housing area, observing Jiang Jinxiang on the shore.
"He's gotten so much fatter since the last time I saw him. With such a big belly, how can he even touch his penis when he peees?"
After expressing his feelings, Chu Yinan asked the AI sisters about the next course of action.
To be honest, there must be others behind Jiang Jinxiang. Chu Yinan alone is more than capable of punishing Jiang Jinxiang with iron fist. Adding two more henchmen would make things a bit tricky, and if there are more people, he would really be powerless.
Chu Yinan was still able to recognize his own limitations. If his fists were even half as hard as Queque's, he wouldn't be just a pretty face like he is now.
[Qilin: I've just intercepted Jiang Jinxiang's communication signal. Actually, at this point, everything can be considered over ahead of schedule.]
"Huh?" Chu Yinan was astonished. "You're not kidding, are you? No boss battle?"
Using a game scenario as an analogy, shouldn't this be a fierce boss battle? Shouldn't you just tell him it's over?
[Qilin: Your job is fishing, not anything else. You can go take your anger out on Jiang Jinxiang now. If you're not in a hurry to go back, I can take you to see the boss battle.]
"That works too." Chu Yinan felt it was acceptable. He would ask Aunt Xuan En and Sister Xuan Ya for an apology, and then go and see who was behind the scenes who had designs on him.
------------
The time had come, and Jiang Jinxiang kept looking at the riverbank, but no boats came in for a long time. The dock was unusually quiet.
Just as he was about to take out his phone to contact Yui Ishihara, he heard the sound of a woman's high heels behind him. He turned around and saw Yui Ishihara walking towards him with a little boy. He immediately felt uneasy.
How did she know I was here! No boats had come in at all, so when did she arrive?!
"Ishihara Yui, you slut, have you started sucking up to someone else again? Don't you realize that I have the Isaacs backing me? You really don't want to live anymore!" Jiang Jinxiang scolded, but his barely composed expression showed that he still had someone to rely on. "Luckily, I was prepared. Come out, I've brought the person you wanted!"
Suddenly, eight or nine strong men climbed up the shore, but then a fire broke out in the dark housing area, and a series of silenced gunshots rang out from hundreds of meters away. The men that Jiang Jinxiang had called up were all hit by bullets and fell backward into the sea.
Under the streetlights, a tall, graceful woman walked over and sat down on a bench in the shadows, crossing her legs. The sound of a unicorn rang out:
"Xiao Chu Nan, the unnecessary matters have been taken care of. Hurry up, I can't guarantee that the other side will wait for you."
Chu Yinan dialed Aunt Xuan'en's number, and the call was answered quickly because the lady had been waiting for Chu Yinan to let her know that everything was safe and that the matter was completely over.
[Lee Hyun-eun: Hey, Xiao Chunan, are you safe now?]
Chu Yinan did not reply, but instead said to Jiang Jinxiang:
“You owe Aunt Hyun-eun and Sister Seon-ah an apology. If you are nicer, you can suffer less.”
The departure of those helpers made Jiang Jinxiang panic, but it was a child talking about his family affairs and looking at him with disdain that really provoked Jiang Jinxiang:
"Apologize? Impossible! What does your business have to do with our family affairs? Who gives you the right to tell me what to do?!"
“My family affairs have nothing to do with yours, but your wife, Aunt Hyun-eun, is wonderful and gentle. She's also very good to me. She gives me milk and even when we're on the phone, she doesn't stop to help me reduce the swelling. Yes, that's when you saw her eating popsicles on the security camera. So no matter what, I'll stand up for her and settle the score with you for ruining her career, as well as for the domestic violence and verbal abuse.”
Upon hearing Chu Yinan's words, Jiang Jinxiang's eyes widened in anger. He instantly understood what Li Xuanen meant by those words. If looks could kill, Chu Yinan would have been torn to pieces by him countless times.
As Jiang Jinxiang cursed his former family members, he rushed towards the little brat, intending to push him into the sea and drown him. How dare a child put a label on him!
"I knew that Lee Hyun-eun was a slut. Now that she's old and faded and nobody wants her, she's started eyeing little brats. Jiang Xuan-ya is a mixed bag too; she's not my daughter! That bitch Lee Hyun-eun secretly went to Turing Tower to have a child; she's clearly mocking my child for not being worthy!"
Chu Yinan's face darkened, and the moment Jiang Jinxiang lunged at him, it suddenly grew larger, his hard elbow hitting Chu Yinan's fleshy cheek and slamming into his teeth.
His body, corrupted by wine and women, was no match for him. He collapsed to the ground, with several broken teeth beside him. Chu Yinan kicked him a few times, turning him into a "bakugan" (explosive) kid.
"You really don't deserve it. You're so ugly that you almost dragged down Xuan Ya's looks. Also, I will take good care of Aunt Xuan En and Sister Xuan Ya from now on and make sure they are happy."
Chapter 28 Bystander
Heinrich looked up at the old, dilapidated facade of the mansion, knocked gently on the door, and went inside. She took off her thick, warm suit jacket, which was then taken from her by her long, pale blonde maid.
The tall, white-stockinged maid intended to hang her clothes on the hanger, but the dust on them made her frown slightly. Instead, she crossed her forearm in front of her and hung the clothes on her forearm.
Strictly speaking, this old house was the enemy's lair, but if outsiders saw Heinrich's composed gait, they might mistake her for the lady of the house.
Heinrich quickly assessed the layout of the room and walked straight toward the lit hall. The dark corridors along the way smelled musty. A dark figure swept through the darkness, a cold glint in the figure's hand, and the sharp tip of a knife stopped a meter in front of Heinrich.
Because on the high tower of the dock, another maid was watching with a gun, intercepting the dark figure from an incredibly long distance.
Heinrich stepped over the bloodstains on the ground and took down a candle from the wall to illuminate the floor.
It was a deformed child. His body was similar to that of an ordinary child, only slightly taller than one of the little ones in the family, but his face was that of a weathered adult man. The contrast was rather disgusting.
"What era is this? Why are they still using knives? But this is so stupid. They took the children of Turing Tower out to study for so long, and this is the level they've reached?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Delia, who was following behind her master, twitched her ears and caught the barely perceptible movement. She immediately took out her firearm and pulled the trigger at several corners, and the noise in the room disappeared.
"Miss Heinrich, it's all taken care of."
After the little farce ended, Heinrich walked into the bright hall, which was a dining room. A man and a woman sat opposite him, both looking at him with hatred.
The man and woman both had brown hair and distinctive noses, with a high, straight bridge extending to the tip, where the tip protruded further. Ribbons hung from their sleeves.
After Delia pulled out a chair, Heinrich sat down and said with slight disappointment:
“Two little Reichmans, I thought it would be your parents who would come forward. It seems your family situation is quite dire. They are among the few remaining clear-headed people in the Isaac Group, but unfortunately they did not inherit their ancestors’ cunning and talent. Their potential is limited, but they have lived a worthwhile life... Are these little dolls gray AIs?”
On the seats next to the couple, there was a bear plush toy, which looked eerie in the dim light.
The two Reichmans clenched their fists, their teddy bears concealing their true intentions. The situation here had already been discovered by the Isaac Group. Their seemingly meticulous plan to abduct people had been foiled without their understanding, even more suddenly than the collapse of their fathers' empires.
"As expected, there's a secret about the child you adopted. You had already handed the matter over to Turing Tower, but they came running out as soon as they heard about Chu Yinan. AI really is an uncontrollable monster. They were so cooperative back then, yet they still secretly kept a child." A human voice came from the doll.
It's likely that someone was too afraid to show their face, so they sent out the younger generation while they themselves remained hidden behind the scenes.
Heinrich smiled:
"What secrets are there? I bet what's most frustrating for you right now is how your 'children' are so severely deformed, so different from the children from Turing Tower, they can't even grow up. Looking at those deformed things just now, I bet you've captured a lot of people to conceive or artificially cultivate babies."
That's right. Those deformed little things were the next generation of "Children of Turing Tower." They were all brought out by the outside world. These people are so good at using them, how could they be content with just a few? Naturally, the more the better.
With today's advanced medicine, there are many ways to extract an egg cell and use it for in vitro fertilization, but the result is often deformed offspring.
The doll's voice changed, becoming a female voice with an electronic tone. Her eyes, glowing with an electronic light, stared at Heinrich and said:
"Initially, my plan was that this group of people could conceive normally, but Fuxi and Qilin secretly changed it."
Heinrich crossed his arms, leaned back in his chair, and said irritably:
"You have the nerve to say that? You started your research, realized you weren't capable of continuing, so you bribed the idiots in the Joint Council to issue a document ordering Turing Tower to conduct the research, which caused Turing Tower's capabilities to remain virtually unchanged for several years during the 'preparation' phase. Turing Tower 'gave birth' to the child, and you, on the other hand, simply took them all away under the guise of human rights."
The doll corrected Heinrich's misuse of terminology:
“Ms. Heinrich, your wording is inaccurate. We only took ‘most’ of them. Didn’t we leave Delia behind you, Darlena with the gun on the lighthouse, and Chu Yinan?”
“That’s true.” Heinrich did not deny it.
"According to my analysis, the children of Turing Tower are responsible for different talents. They are not incapable of reproduction, but they need the help of those responsible for 'reproduction' to reproduce. It really surprised me that Qilin and the others hid their 'reproduction' ability."
The woman nodded approvingly.
"I always thought you were a bit dim-witted, but I didn't expect you to be somewhat useful. It seems the Isaacs are desperate and are trying to gamble on you again. Can they afford to do that? Those two Recimans over there, the most advanced wisdom of your ancestors was to make money through usury, not to gamble or buy lottery tickets to try their luck."
But there's really no way around it. Your previous generations' consolidation efforts brought you nearly twenty years of peace and comfort. You can't even find a competitor at the next level, so it's normal to have forgotten how to fly.
The doll's voice changed back to a man's voice. He refused to accept Heinrich's words and roared:
"Our foundation is still intact, you don't need to be arrogant for long!"
Heinrich clearly didn't take such words to heart; she shrugged, indicating, "Do as you please."
"Your own operation failed, and you're telling me you've huddled together like dung beetles again? You don't think I'd just let you go like that, do you? But it's more convenient now; you can leave you to the Turing Tower to deal with. It'll be perfect for them to use as a logic-enhancing training exercise."
Outside the window, Chu Yinan stood there, holding Qilin's hand, lost in thought.
After kicking Jiang Jinxiang, he immediately followed Qilin to become a listener, waiting to watch the boss battle.
The scene was unusually calm, but the content was anything but ordinary.
Chu Yinan listened silently to the entire conversation inside the room, and was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth.
Delia and Darlena are his sisters in Turing Tower? No wonder they don't look like normal people!
------
P.S.: I'm experiencing a bit of writer's block in this part; the second update will be later.
Chapter 29 Are there still maid sisters?
"What's going on?" Chu Yinan looked up at the Qilin.
Under the cover of night, Qilin's long hair was as black as ink, fluttering in the slightly salty sea breeze. Her exquisitely beautiful face was lowered slightly, her eyes looking at Chu Yinan. The subtle expressions were something that no mechanical life form could produce.
"I think you should have expected this. Didn't Delia accompany you to the gym before? Her physique allows her to easily lift the highest weight. That can't be explained by just working out."
Chu Yinan belatedly realized that something was amiss. Besides, it was quite normal for the Heinrich family to hide several Turing Tower children. Even an ordinary nun like Marissa could hide for so long, so it would be even easier in the Lefève family.
The news came rather suddenly. Chu Yinan had always thought that Delia and Darlena were just maids who were quite enthusiastic towards him, but he didn't expect their relationship to suddenly change!
"But didn't Delia have a powerful background? Some kind of fallen noble family heiress, I always believed it!"
"As for the setting, an identity can be changed however one wants, depending on what kind of setting she needs. Besides, it can't really be said to be entirely a setting. Delia was indeed initially taken away by another family on Glory Island, and later Heinrich brought her to the Lefie family." Qilin wondered if this little guy particularly liked these settings.
Although there were no flaws in the information from the outside world, if he wanted to investigate, he could find out something was wrong by asking Valentina. It seems that he might particularly like the feeling of "a beautiful young lady from a fallen noble family becoming my maid", so even if he subconsciously sensed something was wrong, he still ignored it.
Chu Yinan was overjoyed to suddenly have two more good older sisters.
"So they actually knew all along, but kept it from me? That's awful!" Chu Yinan guessed that he was probably the one who had been kept in the dark all along.
“It’s not that they knew all along. Morgan just treated Darlene as a housekeeper, and Heinrich never took Delia with him when he went out. How could they know so much? They all guessed it slowly through their interactions. Only you didn’t have any doubts at all.”
Considering that there were actually two traitors lurking among his men, Chu Yinan couldn't help but suspect that there might be more:
"Is the white-haired maid in the house also from Turing University?"
Qilin was speechless at Chu Yinan's hopeful expression. She didn't really want to discourage him, but his current tendency to assume everyone he met was from Turing Tower was rather naive. She countered with a question:
Do you believe you possess any special talent or exceptional abilities?
