Chapter 271 Machine 10

Jiang Chan truly couldn't understand Ming Jianyue's motives. She had no value whatsoever, and she felt like she was in a dream. She was wheeled into the operating room and given the best possible care. Ming Jianyue was by her side, his gentle voice telling her to close her eyes and that she would recover when she opened them.

Jiang Chan even met other lucky people in the hospital. They were all placed in the best wards and received treatments that they had never dared to think of before. However, the reputation of the royal family did not improve because of the charity program. The corpses in the slums were like piles of mosquitoes and flies in summer, which could not be eliminated no matter what.

Ming Jianyue wrapped white gauze around Jiang Chan's eyes. "The operation was successful. You can remove the gauze in a week. Be careful not to rub your eyes. If you have any questions, contact me immediately."

Jiang Chan sat up and subconsciously reached for the gauze covering her eyes, only to be removed by Ming Jianyue. She was startled for a moment before hearing Ming Jianyue say, "Is that your robot nanny waiting outside? He looks very strong. Does he take care of your daily life?"

Alarm bells rang in Jiang Chan's mind. Here it comes! Was she about to reveal her intentions? She knew Yin Jia was smarter than any other robot nanny on the market; it even had a built-in attack system. Ming Jianyue was a member of the royal family, and the royal family forbade the public from using attack robots.

"When I first became blind, my life was a mess. My mother brought me Shining Armor, a home robot that has helped me a lot in my life. It's like my eyes..."

Ming Jianyue was stunned: "...Mom?"

Jiang Chan felt that her tone was a little shocked, as if the word "mother" should not come out of her mouth, but she had a good impression of Ming Jianyue, and explained: "She is the director of my welfare home. The children in the welfare home all call her mother. I am an orphan and have lived in the welfare home since I had no memory." She was abandoned at a very young age.

Leaving the operating room, Jiang Chan heard the sound of metal clicking. She turned towards the source of the sound and, sure enough, Yin Jia's voice rang in her ears, "Yin Jia is in front of the young master."

Jiang Chan pursed her lips and smiled, raising her hand slightly from her side. Yin Jia took her hand and walked over to Yin Jia, telling him, "The operation was a success. We can go home now!"

"Silver Armor is very happy." The metal eyes scanned the white gauze around her eyes, and Silver Armor's tone contained clear joy.

Ming Jianyue told Yin Jia the precautions, and then she saw Yin Jia promptly grab Jiang Chan's hand that was about to rub her eyes, wrapping both of her hands in his broad metal palms. His deliberately gentle tone turned into a serious voice that hardened several degrees, "Young Master, you can't rub your eyes."

"Oh." Jiang Chan felt her eyes a little itchy, but she endured it.

Ming Jianyue felt a pang of sadness in her heart. There was no one else in the room, so she said, "...Jiang Chan, when your eyes are better, are you interested in coming to work in the hospital? I have an assistant position here..."

Jiang Chan: "Thank you for your kindness." She refused directly, "I really don't have the ability to do the job of an assistant. If you need help in the future, I will do my best!" Ming Jianyue wanted to say something, but she received a phone call and her face looked very bad. She left without saying goodbye to Jiang Chan.

When Jiang Chan came to the Royal Hospital alone, she was terrified and felt that every step she took was terrible. Now it was different, Yin Jia was by her side, and she wanted to "appreciate" the scenery near the Royal Hospital. Of course, it was all described to her by Yin Jia in voice.

"In front is the Mechanical Hunting Ground, covering an area of approximately three square kilometers. In the center is a statue of the Mechanical City Lord, surrounded by greenery..."

"Mechanical hunting ground?"

"Young Master, this is their entertainment venue for fighting with machines." At the same time, the sound of orderly footsteps could be heard. Silver Armor said, "There are ten robots heading our way, equipped with ammunition. Their shells are tough and not easy to break, but Silver Armor can..."

Jiang Chan was so anxious that she stood on tiptoe to cover his mouth: "Yinjia, shut up! Let's go back!" She pulled Yinjia away, and Yinjia replied: "Okay, little master." Then he put his arms around her waist, picked her up in the air, and left in the opposite direction of Jiang Chan.

Jiang Chan asked and confirmed that there was no one around. She was about to tell Yin Jia not to talk nonsense and to be careful with what he said and did, but when she turned the corner, she heard a noise and their way was blocked. Jiang Chan asked Yin Jia what happened. Yin Jia couldn't figure it out for the time being because there were so many people, and there seemed to be a car parked in the middle, and someone was shouting with a horn.

"My child uses a Tamron Technology chip. Tamron advertised it as safe and harmless, and that it could detect biological levels in real time. However, my child's chip exploded just a few days after it was implanted because the chip's quality didn't meet standards!"

Tenglong is a subsidiary of Julong, specializing in the production of biochips. The Tenglong chip was launched two months ago, touted as a "health-protecting" device, and has already begun widespread promotion.

"...The research and development of the chip requires so much money and manpower, yet Tamron is just promoting it for free. It's problematic no matter how you look at it. But the royal family encouraged us to implant the chip and offered rewards. My whole family got it implanted, and suddenly I feel unwell!"

Soon robots arrived to maintain order.

But the family who lost their child was screaming hysterically in the middle of the crowd, and people around them kept echoing them. Some people even brought up the previous slum explosion, thinking that it was caused by the chip explosion.

At this moment, several mechanical birds suddenly flew in the sky. They were silver-white and only the size of a palm.

No one took it seriously. However, Jiang Chan froze when she heard a familiar buzzing sound. At the same time, the mechanical bird dropped a blurry object at the man in the center. The moment it landed, there was a bombing sound and screams. Jiang Chan's legs went weak and she was held by Yin Jia to prevent her from falling.

"Everyone, don't panic. He's using a low-quality chip from somewhere, and he's trying to frame Tenglong. Maybe he's a member of the Dragon Slayer Organization and is trying to frame us! Tenglong chips are all certified for health, so you can use them with confidence. Don't be fooled by those people in the Dragon Slayer Organization..."

Jiang Chan's limbs were cold. Yin Jia took her away. It was not until they reached a quiet alley that Jiang Chan felt less stuffy in her chest. She patted her chest hard, but the buzzing sound of the mechanical bird still echoed in her ears.

She was originally curious about the Tamron chip, but the appearance of the mechanical bird made her impression plummet. Intuition is not a good thing. Her eyes were damaged by the explosives dropped by something like this, so she naturally had no good impression of these things.

Tenglong chips were originally developed and made freely available. Where else could that family have implanted a substandard chip? It must have been Tenglong's chip that had a problem, but they refused to admit it, even blowing someone up. It was simply lawless. Oh, no, Tenglong was originally part of Julong, the tech company owned by the lord of Mechanical City. They already controlled everything in Tech City.

Jiang Chan patted Yin Jia's arm and asked him to put her down. She stood on the ground and felt much better. "Yin Jia, are my eyes okay?" Yin Jia told her that there was no problem. The gauze was still on his eyes, and told her not to worry.

"If it's just for a health check, why implant it under the skin? Can't it be attached to the skin, or anywhere else? They can kill people at will, so it's hard to guarantee that they don't want to use this to control everyone. I don't want to have a chip implanted..." She muttered, thinking that the chip was terrible, and the mechanical bird brought back all her previous frightening experiences.

Yin Jia's movements froze slightly. Then, he spoke in a cold and serious metallic voice, "The Tamron chip can only detect various physiological data of the human body. If the young master has such intentions, Yin Jia does not recommend the use of the Tamron chip. The chips available on the market are all very limited in function and carry certain risks."

"Your body's surface temperature, heart rate, blood pressure, bioelectric signals, and all other health-related data can be monitored in real time through the Silver Armor. In addition—"

"Silver Armor can also tailor specific responses to your young master's mental state, acting as your psychologist. A person's mental state is determined by brain waves, brain tissue structure, and the body's chemical composition. Silver Armor can monitor your adrenaline, dopamine levels, serotonin, and more in real time. It can also identify your current emotional state through your facial micro-expressions, provide specific counseling, and ensure your mental health..."

Jiang Chan didn't come back to her senses, staring blankly at Yin Jia. She felt that Yin Jia's voice was very cold, but it had an inexplicable power, as if deliberately attracting her. Yin Jia's words kept echoing in her mind... He said a lot, but she didn't remember it. Jiang Chan looked embarrassed, "Yin Jia, are you saying that you can test my health level? But you could do it before."

Shining Armor repeated his previous words, saying, "Young Master, Shining Armor requires you to grant more permissions so that I can better manage your daily life and safeguard your health and happiness."

"Ah..." Jiang Chan didn't care. She agreed, letting Silver Armor hold her fingers and operate the display on her chest. She didn't understand why she couldn't do it at home, but on the street. What if someone saw her?

Yin Jia was too impatient, as if she would regret it if she was a little late! Jiang Chan leaned against Yin Jia's mechanical arm and said, "Yin Jia, are you still not ready?"

Yin Jia said, "Young Master, Yin Jia still needs your data interface, including your payment software, chat software, game software, location information... Yin Jia will protect you more comprehensively."

Jiang Chan: "Ah?" She was reluctant. The software involved too much of her privacy, so she was a little hesitant.

Shining Armor: "My dear master, Shining Armor needs your data interface, including your payment software, chat software, game software, location information... Shining Armor will protect my dear master more comprehensively."

Jiang Chan played dumb: "Yingjia, let's go home!"

"Yin Jia needs your data interface, including your payment software, chat software, game software, location information...Yin Jia will protect the little master more comprehensively."

Jiang Chan couldn't play dumb, so she said directly, "Not for now."

"Yin Jia needs your data interface, including your payment software, chat software, game software, location information...Yin Jia will protect the little master more comprehensively."

"Ginger Armor, are you malfunctioning?"

"Yin Jia needs your data interface, including your payment software, chat software, game software, location information...Yin Jia will protect the little master more comprehensively."

"..." Jiang Chan's head ached from the urging. Amidst Yin Jia's urging, which seemed to be malfunctioning, the always calm mechanical voice inexplicably had a hint of madness. She hesitated for a moment: "Okay, Yin Jia. Are you really not malfunctioning?"

Yin Jia received Jiang Chan's authorization and connected to the data. He explained, "From now on, the young master will be able to receive and send messages directly on Yin Jia's body. Yin Jia is happy to serve the young master."

Then he said, "Thank you for your concern, young master. Silver Armor is in good health."

Jiang Chan's mind was still a little confused. She thought about how she would be able to operate on the display screen on Yin Jia's chest when chatting with classmates, watching videos or playing games. Although Yin Jia was a robot, and although robots at this stage were not believed to have awakened consciousness, in her opinion, Yin Jia was her best friend. If she really had to operate on his chest...

She will be so ashamed!
