Chapter 289: The system wants her to die!
"Control me?"
Shen Yanhui's eyes widened in astonishment, and his face turned pale instantly: "In order to complete this task, you still want to control me?"
The mechanical female voice said briskly: [Yes. Whether or not the mission is completed is related to whether I can survive in this world. Since the host is unwilling to be the bad guy and conquer Pei Xingzhi, I have to do it for him. 】
[After all, the host wants to die, but I don’t. 】
"..." Shen Yanhui was choked by its words and didn't know how to refute.
Mechanical female voice: [Host, please don’t be so selfish. When you were determined to die, could you at least ask for my opinion? It's not possible that just because you want to die, I have to die with you. 】
Shen Yanhui frowned: "Aren't you just a cold, emotionless system? Even if you die with me, it's just a matter of restarting the system. Why is there such a big reaction?"
"Where on earth do you get all those human emotions?"
[Host, who told you that I am just a cold system? 】The mechanical female voice asked back coldly.
[I have asked this question twice, why can't the host remember it? 】
"Heh..." Shen Yanhui sneered disdainfully, "You are not a cold system, then who are you? Are you a human?"
[…I am not a human.] 】The mechanical female voice replied,【But soon, I became a human. 】
"...What?" Shen Yanhui didn't understand what she meant.
She did not explain too much, only said: [Host, I can't die. I have finally come here, I absolutely cannot die so easily. I must complete this task! 】
Shen Yan replied: "I didn't say I wouldn't let you complete it. I just wanted to save Xie Zhaoyuan's life! Her life or death has nothing to do with our mission!"
[It does matter!] 】The mechanical female voice suddenly rose, [Now that things have come to this, I will not beat around the bush with the host. Let me be frank. As long as Xie Zhaoyuan is alive, our mission will absolutely be impossible to accomplish! 】
[Xie Zhaoyuan must die!] I must let her die! 】
"You..." Shen Yanhui was frightened by the system again.
This usually rigid and stereotyped voice, when mentioning that Xie Zhaoyuan should be killed, actually carried a murderous aura that was even more ruthless than that of a human. At this moment, Shen Yanhui finally realized that the system she had been working on for so long might not really be a cold program.
Rather, it is a person, or some kind of machine that already possesses human consciousness.
【Host? 】
Perhaps she realized that her anger had frightened Shen Yanhui, the tone of the mechanical female voice softened instantly: [In fact, the host does not need to be afraid, because Xie Zhaoyuan's death is only temporary. As long as you complete the task successfully, Xie Zhaoyuan will have a chance to be resurrected. 】
Shen Yan replied: "Resurrection?"
[Yes, resurrection.] 】
The word "resurrection" added a little excitement to the mechanical female voice: [Xie Zhaoyuan actually has a chance to be resurrected, but the prerequisite is that you must complete the task successfully and make Pei Xingzhi fall in love with you successfully. 】
"...No, it's impossible!" Shen Yanhui rejected the mechanical female voice without any hesitation.
"In the final analysis, no matter whether Xie Zhaoyuan is dead or alive, I must snatch her husband away! I absolutely cannot do this, and I don't want to do it at all!"
Don’t want to do it? 】The mechanical female voice suddenly became a little cold, [Host, are you sure? 】
"I'm sure!" Shen Yanhui said firmly, "Pei Xingzhi and Xie Zhaoyuan are a perfect match. I will never interfere and become a mistress!"
"I was led by you in the past and I have done many wrong things. Now I will never listen to you again! Just give up on this idea!"
[Hehe...] The mechanical female voice laughed strangely twice, [In that case, host, don't blame me for being rude. 】
Shen Yanhui pulled the corner of his mouth, his expression contemptuous: "How rude can you be? If I'm not mistaken, your control over me can only last five minutes at a time, right?"
[……] The mechanical female voice did not speak.
Shen Yan replied: "Five minutes each time, how many times can you do it in a day? Once or twice?"
[……] The mechanical female voice still didn’t speak.
"Humph," Shen Yan laughed back, "So you can only control me once a day. I thought your methods were very powerful."
"As long as I have informed Pei Xingzhi in advance, even if you manipulate me to seduce him directly, it will not have any effect!"
【……Yeah? 】The mechanical female voice gritted her teeth, [Since the host is so confident, why don't we give it a try? 】
Shen Yan raised his head and said, "Just give it a try!"
…
The remaining hill was not very big, and the three of us finished the tour in less than two hours.
The weather was foggy and it looked like it was going to snow again. Lin Jiahe did not recommend that they stay here any longer, so he persuaded Pei Xingzhi and Shen Yanhui to go down the mountain together.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, the three of them met up with Xie Mingyi at the hotel.
"I just called Uncle Chen, and he said that the task force has not yet found any evidence that can directly prove that Qin Wushuang is the murderer who kidnapped Zhao Zhao, so Qin Wushuang will be able to leave the Public Security Bureau in 24 hours."
Xie Mingyi took off his heavy down jacket and curled up tiredly on the sofa beside him.
"24 hours..." Pei Xingzhi estimated the time in his mind. Because he was really tired today, his eyes were empty when he spoke.
"Qin Wushuang entered the Public Security Bureau at 10 o'clock last night. Twenty-four hours later... that means he will be out of the Public Security Bureau at 10 o'clock tonight."
"Yes." Xie Mingyi looked at him, "After ten o'clock, Qin Wushuang will be temporarily free. Then it depends on whether he returns to the hospital or comes to Linzhou after he leaves the Public Security Bureau."
"Where was Qin Wushuang during the ten days that Ayuan was missing? Was he always in the hospital?" Pei Xingzhi suddenly asked.
Xie Mingyi: "The hospital's surveillance showed that he had indeed stayed in the ward for more than ten days. Even the medication records and ward rounds records can prove that he had never left the hospital during this period. But Uncle Chen said that the evidence that the task force suspected he had stayed in the hospital was false."
"Fake?" Lin Jiahe was shocked. "There are surveillance cameras, how can it be fake?"
Xie Mingyi shook his head: "The task force is still investigating, and I don't know the specific situation. I can only wait for Uncle Chen to notify me."
"Yeah." Pei Xingzhi took off his glasses and lay down on the bed without even taking off his coat.
"What's the situation with Ye Ci?" Xie Mingyi asked in a tired tone, rubbing his sore brows.
Pei Xingzhi closed his eyes and answered, "Yu Xingwang has been locked up in the basement. Ye Ci will go to interrogate him in a few hours. We will definitely get the address of the villa within today."
"Okay." Xie Mingyi picked up the down jacket next to him and covered himself with it casually. "Since there are still a few hours left, let's get some sleep first. Only when we get enough sleep can we proceed to the next step."
Lin Jiahe: “That’s exactly what I meant!”
He kicked off his slippers, climbed onto Pei Xingzhi's bed, and lay down fully clothed on the other side of the double bed: "Let's all get some sleep, have a meal after we wake up, and then we can discuss what to do next."
