Chapter 37 Beauty Salon "Everyone Flees When Disaster Strikes"
The entire building is made of a special white frosted glass material. People coming and going make a loud noise on it, and AI service robots of various colors are flying in the air.
"Welcome customers to our company!" The ball bounced and scanned its face and the number of people it led on the machine next to the door, then flew around the three people. "Would you like to learn more about the company first, make an appointment for beauty treatments, or try holographic face and body shaping?"
I think it is because people here often undergo various plastic surgeries, so not many people pay attention to their unfamiliar faces.
Xie Shuqin simply replied, "First, let's find out if your company has any other projects besides the ones you just mentioned. The more interesting the better."
Xu An had previously mentioned that this place was founded by Lin Yu. Whether it was the only remaining records of Lin Yu at the base, or Xu An's description of his various experiments combining human and foreign genes, it all pointed to problems with this beauty company. Perhaps this was Lin Yu's main laboratory.
But such a place should not be shown to the outside world so easily. This sphere is just a service AI and should not know these things.
The more Xie Shuqin thought about it, the more troubled she felt. When she turned around, she found Xu An staring at her with a smile in his eyes.
"Xu An, what do you think?" She winked at Xu An, trying not to attract other people's attention.
Xu An still watched with a smile.
Xie Shuqin's eyes were about to cramp when a hand suddenly rested on her shoulder.
Baili Yunle sighed helplessly and pointed at the service AIs staring at them. "We should have been noticed."
"It's over. We only cared about the people and not the AI!" Xie Shuqin was worried. After he was done worrying, he quickly gave everyone a headset to wear.
"Since we've been discovered, let's have some fun." Xu An laughed a few times, threw his hair back, and walked up to Yuanqiu with confidence. "Little Fatty, do you have limb transplant surgery here? I want to transplant a limb from a different species."
Xie Shuqin and Baili Yunle didn't expect Xu An to be so brave, and both held their breath.
The air seemed to be silent for a moment. The two men behind him silently grasped their guns.
The ball's calm expression suddenly turned into a smile, and it flew around Xu An: "Of course, ma'am! This is our company's biggest project! Whether you want to strengthen your body or beautify your figure, we can satisfy you!"
"Beautify the body?" Xie Shuqin thought of Baili Yunle's strange legs. "Can grafting alien limbs be considered beautifying the body?"
She looked around. Everyone had perfectly normal human structures, and their faces were striking. "No one here is working on this project, right? Is this something that's already commonplace and can be directly mentioned?"
"Of course not." Xu An played with the dagger in his hand. "After all, those are all things in the laboratory. How could they suddenly run out?"
The next second, she suddenly raised her hand, and the service AI in front of her was instantly cut in half. The electric tubes sizzled with electricity, and red lights flashed on the faces of other service AIs.
"They're the ones who gutted those people! Catch them!"
Suddenly, a commotion erupted in the room. Customers screamed and fled, and the service AI swarmed around them like wasps, its voice repeating over and over again: "Catch them."
"Only alien species would dig out human hearts and lungs and eat human brains. Are you putting the blame on us?" Xie Shuqin shrugged, swung the magic stick in his hand, and swatted back any service AI that wanted to get close.
The service AI instantly gathered around Xu An and Baili Yunle. Xu An paused in his stretching motion when he heard a mechanical voice repeating, "Alien species... destroy the alien species..."
Xie Shuqin belatedly covered her mouth and said, "I forgot about it."
Soon everyone in the room was cleared out, and bionic men armed with machine guns and shields lined up neatly amid the sound of alarms.
"Xu An! Surrender!"
All the superpower inhibitors opened almost at the same time, a heavy steel blockade was lowered on the company's gate, and the sphere that was cut in half stumbled and flew up.
As I was flying, screams instantly exploded in my ears, and my head seemed to make a ding. The next second, tinnitus broke out, and the long-lost feeling of nausea came over me again.
It's a mental wave attack!
The newly improved protective suits can completely resist the mental wave attacks they encountered before, which means that the mental wave attacks they encountered this time are far stronger than before!
When he was extremely dizzy, Xu An snapped his fingers lightly, and the surrounding service AI was instantly shattered. The bionic man put the shield together as a whole, but in the next second, it all turned into pieces.
"Interesting." Xu An raised his chin, his eyes flashing with bloodshot. "It seems that Lin Yu knows a lot about me. What a pity, I originally wanted to spare her life."
She smiled, but her smile was gradually filled with murderous intent. Just as she was about to take action, she was suddenly blocked by people on both sides.
"You keep nagging us not to use our powers, but when you use them yourself, you're not shy at all." Baili Yunle snorted coldly, "If you use your powers, this building will collapse. If you want to find a grave for us, just say so."
Xie Shuqin leaned against her with a pistol in hand: "He just likes to say the opposite, Xu An, it's not your turn to take action now."
"The androids' awakening abilities are higher than ours to begin with. Now that they've taken their own lives, we can't blame them."
As soon as they finished speaking, they were about to take action when a loud noise suddenly came from above their heads.
Just as everyone raised their heads, the roof of their heads suddenly collapsed, and glass fragments fell to the ground. Among the fragments, there was a bloody person.
"This man's... internal organs and brain have been hollowed out..."
The smell of blood surged over, and several people held back their nausea, but the bionic people in front of them rushed forward, and gunshots followed. In an instant, the people who had just gathered together, one jumped to the jumping platform upstairs with the help of a climbing rope, one turned over and hid behind the counter, and one suddenly appeared, squatted at the air outlet, lifted the lid, and looked at the two with a smile.
"It's true, when disaster strikes, everyone runs for their own lives." Baili Yunle complained in the headset.
"What's the point of running away when disaster strikes? We clearly trust each other's strength." Xie Shuqin's voice was heard above the constant sound of gunfire and the sound of steel being struck. "I should have brought my treasure here earlier."
Baili Yunle took advantage of the high position and cover to shoot the android who posed a great threat to Jie Shuqin in the head, while teasing her: "If you had brought your baby with you, they would have recognized us sooner."
Xu An listened to them quietly. Amidst the noise, a crisp sound of machinery starting up was heard.
"Stop playing around." Xu An frowned slightly. "Lin Yu set up remote control and just opened something. It sounded like water. Maybe the contents of the jar escaped."
The two of them felt nervous when they heard the sound.
Xie Shuqin looked up at Baili Yunle, who understood instantly. The next second, a mist bomb exploded in the air. Xie Shuqin jumped up with one hand on the counter. Using the position calculated previously, he stepped on the head of a male bionic man in front of him and jumped up. He grabbed the rope that Baili Yunle had dropped and climbed up to the second floor.
Xu An silently watched Jie Shuqin come up safely, and walked up the ventilation duct silently.
"The seventh floor and below are all normal business operations. There is a single office on the eighth floor, which should be Lin Yu's. A lot of materials can be found there, but the thing in the jar has woken up. From the sound, it seems to be active on the ninth and tenth floors. Most of the bionic people have gone to intercept the monsters, so there will be few chasing us. We have to find information quickly." After saying that, Xu An listened carefully to their direction and quickly went over.
After hearing her words, Xie Shuqin's eyes lit up: "Wow, Xu An, you are a humanoid detector! Faster than a chip!"
Baili Yunle tutted his words, "Oh my god, her hearing is so good, I can't cricket her anymore."
"You said a lot to my face." Xie Shuqin ruthlessly exposed him.
As soon as he finished speaking, a shadow appeared in the ventilation duct.
Xu An leaned against the wall with a smile, "You can cricket me now."
Baili Yunle's thankful smile froze on his face. He touched his hands with his left hand, then his gun with his right hand. Then he lowered his head and clicked on the chip to turn it off. Suddenly, he said, "Let's go find the data."
Xu An shrugged, pointed in a direction, and said concisely: "Stairs."
Baili Yunle rushed over immediately.
Xie Shuqin hid behind him and laughed secretly. Just as she was about to follow, Xu An suddenly stopped her and pointed to another place.
"That's the elevator over there," she explained. "All the doors on the first floor are closed, so the androids can't get in. There's no one in the elevator."
Just when the two were rummaging through the second cabinet, Baili Yunle finally arrived, his yellow hair stained with dust and blood.
"What's wrong?" Xie Shuqin was a little surprised.
Without even looking up, Xu An scoffed, "It's okay. I just had a fight with a android."
Xie Shuqin looked at her in surprise: "Didn't they say the gates were locked? How did the android get up here?"
Xu An looked at Baili Yunle with a smile, but he was talking to her: "Because the last door is him."
Baili Yunle looked at her resentfully.
"This is too..." Xie Shuqin was stunned.
Just when Baili Yunle thought his good sister was going to speak up for him to prove their brotherly love, Jie Shuqin suddenly saw stars: "This is so useful! My brother can be used in this way. Xu An, you have provided a new idea!"
Baili Yunle: "...I shouldn't have had any illusions."
Although the three of them joked around a bit, their actions of searching for things were very serious.
Because Jie Shuqin has lost her chip, all electronic storage is operated by Baili Yunle.
Although these electronic devices had various passwords that took a long time to crack, fortunately there were a lot of things in them and the equipment was complete, which was much more than what they usually got from searching a few abandoned ground buildings.
Xie Shuqin and Xu An backed up and took photos of all the paper copies of experiments and surgeries.
There isn't much paper data, just two walls, and most of it contains cosmetic plans and surgeries for various customers.
Xie Shuqin muttered as she flipped through the pages, "There aren't many people on the ground anymore. If Lin Yu wanted to conduct human experiments, why did he use a beauty salon as a disguise? Besides, with so much beauty information, it doesn't look like a disguise."
She flipped through the pages and suddenly came across the initial data record for a cosmetic surgery:
"Zhang Li, female, 22 years old, ability awakening value 12%."
In her most recent record, the awakening value of her supernatural power changed from 12% to 15%.
Increased.
There has always been a case where the awakening value of supernatural powers has decreased only due to major trauma. Jie Shuqin has only seen three cases where it increased.
One is the customer named Zhang Li, another is Yang Gui, who originally had only 20% but later reached 24%, and the other is Baili Yunle, who went from being an ordinary person to awakening superpowers...
"They all underwent xenogeneic gene transfer? This beauty salon appears to be performing cosmetic surgery, but it's actually conducting human experiments?" The more Xie Shuqin thought about it, the more terrified she felt. "Then, what about Yang Gui and Baili Yunle? If they were involved in this experiment, how did they get to the base?"
Before, Xie Shuqin always found it incredible why humans on the ground spent so much effort to create alien species. But now it seems that what if they were not trying to create alien species, but to transform humans?
This is not a beauty salon at all, but a human body transformation base.
