Xia Chuhe didn't have time to think about what was going on. He quickly handed the rope to Li Qiusheng and 02, and the three of them slid down the windowsill.

As soon as I landed, I heard a loud thud upstairs, and a figure quickly appeared in the window.

The person who arrived was not wearing a police uniform; his clothes were exactly the same as those of the security personnel who appeared when the robot was being tested.

Xia Chuhe waved defiantly at the people upstairs and strode away.

Once the rope was taken out, taking out the car became much easier.

A stretched black off-road vehicle suddenly appeared on the side of the road.

Xia Chuhe picked up 02 and Li Qiusheng, went around to the back gate of the community, picked up Bu Yi, and then navigated to the house that Lu Danggui was temporarily renting, where the others were temporarily staying.

Besides his teammates, Xia Chuhe also inevitably had to deal with those few money-losing customers.

A "money-losing product" refers to a robot that, even after being dismantled, continues to act willfully and unrepentantly, attempting to demand love from humans.

There's no way around it; although they have tracking devices, they're vulnerable to electric shocks if they don't carry them with them.

Fortunately, 02 disassembled them again, and the parts were slowly thrown out of the car window.

After driving around in circles, Xia Chuhe figured out a problem.

"Who do you think cares most about these robots?" Xia Chuhe asked knowingly.

She received a perfectly reasonable answer—Cupid.

So, within Wujiang Company, who cares most about these robots?

Xia Chuhe also had an answer—Ai Dong.

Xia Chuhe had a bold guess: could the chairman of Wujiang Company be Cupid?

Verifying this is also very simple.

Xia Chuhe found an abandoned factory in the suburbs of Ai City online and sent the address to Ai Dong using his work software: "[Mingxiang's parts are in my hands. Come and get them if you want them.]"

Xia Chuhe stepped on the gas and drove toward the abandoned factory.

She drove faster and faster, but a bunch of black cars that seemed to appear out of nowhere followed closely behind, like a snake's tail that she couldn't shake off.

"How did they catch up?" Xia Chuhe sped up, ignoring the traffic lights.

02 Speed ​​up the throwing of parts: "Follow the robot parts that are coming up."

"Open the car doors and push them all out."

We can't let them follow us any longer; we're almost at the factory.

02 Quickly opened the car door, and Li Qiusheng next to him threw all the remaining parts out of the car in one go.

With the excellent performance of the off-road vehicle and the driving skills honed in the wasteland, Xia Chuhe quickly shook off the group of followers.

On the way, she shared her speculation with the others: "If Ethan is really Cupid, we may be in for a tough fight."

Bu Yi comforted everyone: "It's okay, I asked, it's a draw. At worst, it's just a tie."

Of all the items in the warehouse, only one book on the Art of Searching for Gods remains. I wonder if it will be effective against the God of Love.

The only special weapon they possess is a gun that the butler gave them back then.

Xia Chuhe handed the gun and magazine to Li Yue, who was the best marksman.

Finally, the parrot appeared out of nowhere in the car.

Everyone get ready and head to the abandoned factory.

The suburban roads were difficult to navigate, but the high-performance off-road vehicle wasn't significantly affected. After driving through a patch of overgrown ruins, the car stopped in front of the factory's rusty gate.

Everyone was divided into two groups. Bu Yi and 02 had to stay in the car because their superpowers were not suitable for combat and they did not have any special weapons.

Bao'er also had to stay in the car, and Xia Chuhe used the lame excuse that "you have to protect them."

The rest of the people went into the factory with Xia Chuhe.

A broken lock hung on the factory gate. The chain was covered in thick rust, but the break was clean, indicating that it had broken recently.

"Chairman Ai may have already gone inside. Let's be extra careful." Xia Chuhe pushed the door open a crack and entered the factory.

Then, she stood frozen at the doorway.

There was no security team on high alert, and no ambush prepared in advance.

There was only one woman in the factory compound.

Dressed in white, with long hair reaching her waist, her gaze was aloof.

The moonlight shone on her face, giving it a broken beauty.

It is truly broken.

Her face was divided into several sections by faint red marks, like a porcelain doll that had been broken and pieced back together.

"You're so slow," Director Ai said, his voice as ethereal as heavenly music. "Where are Mingxiang's parts? Give them back to me."

Xia Chuhe tried to negotiate with her: "You let us out, and..."

She hesitated, wondering whether she should bring Zhu Guanshan and 04 along.

From a subjective perspective, she believes that the practice of using mundane life to lull the evolved beings into complacency is insidious.

However, from an objective standpoint, she didn't want to make a decision for Zhu Guanshan and 04 on her own. If they liked life in the instance, then they had the right to choose to stay.

Xia Chuhe didn't want to interfere too much with their choices.

Faced with Xia Chuhe's request, Chairman Ai actually nodded: "I'll tell you a story. If you think I did something wrong, then tell me what to do, and I'll let you out. But if you think I did something right, then stay, okay?"

Is there really such a good thing?

Xia Chuhe and the others exchanged glances and made the same choice in tacit agreement—regardless of Ai Dong's story, they would say without hesitation that she was wrong.

Before Ai Dong began his story, a day had finally passed outside the instance.

03. He left the food and amusement park feeling unsatisfied, only to find that among so many people in the camp, there wasn't a single person to share his joy with.

02, 04 and Bao'er are all missing.

03. They found the only person they knew, Ah Bao.

"Boss Xia, where did they go?"
