"Report to the counselor, our group has finished assembling." Seeing Cheng Kejia walking over, Chu Nian quickly raised her hand to report.
Cheng Kejia said helplessly, "Yi Nian, I know your skill level. But the main purpose of this course is to teach students the most basic computer assembly. Can't you stand to the side?"
Chu Nian: "But our group's results can't be suppressed by others."
Cheng Kejia: "Alright, your group got first place in the assembly class this time. However," she looked at Zhao Xiaowei and the others who were still a bit dumbfounded, "did you guys take notes of the steps when you watched Yi Nian assemble it?"
Several girls lowered their heads in shame.
Cheng Kejia then looked at Lou Qianzong. Lou Qianzong was a powerful poison zombie with an incredibly strong soul; his memory and control over his body were far beyond what ordinary people could achieve. He said with no small amount of pride, "I've already memorized it; I can simulate it right here."
Cheng Kejia said happily, "That's great. Now you can take this host apart and then put it back together."
"Tear it down? It's been torn down?" Lou Qianzong was dumbfounded. He didn't know how! He had only been in this world for less than a month and had never even touched these things.
Chu Nian quickly said, "Let me demonstrate."
Cheng Kejia said, "No, let him dismantle it. How can he do it without doing it himself?"
Lou Qianzong also thought what she said made sense, and immediately dragged the assembled host in front of him.
Two minutes later, a pile of broken parts nearly made Cheng Kejia faint with anger.
Not to mention Cheng Kejia, even Chu Nian, who knew the truth, was a little angry. She scolded Lou Qianzong in a low voice several times: "Why are you breaking it? Why are you breaking it?"
Circuit boards, memory modules, and even some delicate small parts were all broken in half.
Lou Qianzong, quite self-righteously, said, "Didn't you tell me to demolish it?"
Chu Nian: "I told you to dismantle it, not to break it."
Lou Qianzong: "I didn't break it. These things are too flimsy. They break with the slightest touch."
"Pfft...hehehe..." Zhao Xiaowei and the other three couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Lou Qianzong asked in a sinister tone, "Is it ridiculous?"
The four girls' smiling faces instantly turned into zombie faces: their faces suddenly became expressionless.
Cheng Kejia said, "You will pay for these parts."
Lou Qianzong muttered dejectedly, "Fine, I'll pay. It's not like I can't afford to."
Cheng Kejia was furious: "How dare you talk like that? Who do you think you are?"
She remembered the first time she met Lou Qianlin in a coffee shop in City X, he wasn't as troublesome as he is now!
She had already subjectively ignored the fact that the two men sitting opposite her had such strong presences that she had panicked and fled home. She now felt that it was the other adult man, Chen Zhao, who had such a strong presence, rather than the classmate Lou Qianlin in front of her.
Chu Nian quickly said, "Don't mind him, he's just unreliable."
Cheng Kejia paused for a moment, then asked, "Niannian, do you have a break time after your extracurricular classes?"
Chu Nian: "There is a half-hour break, and then it's time for evening self-study."
Cheng Kejia said, "Then, shall I buy you a drink after class?"
Chu Nian wondered why she would think of buying her a drink, but she nodded and said, "Okay!"
Fifteen minutes later, she and Cheng Kejia appeared in a small corner of the school cafeteria.
The management at Beijing No. 1 High School is much stricter than that at Jueming High School in City X. Students are not allowed to leave the school gate before the end of evening self-study and the actual dismissal of school. For meals, snacks, and drinks, the cafeteria has everything you could want, and students can only eat and drink in the cafeteria.
Cheng Kejia ordered a yogurt for Chu Nian, while she ordered a cola for herself.
“Ai Wen and I have broken up,” Cheng Kejia said.
Chu Nian gave a faint "hmm": she had absolutely no interest in the romance between the female lead and the second male lead.
But she sensed that Cheng Kejia was in low spirits, with a hint of sadness in her expression. Could it be because of a breakup? But she knew what kind of person Ai Wen was; breaking up with a man like that as soon as possible should be considered a blessing!
Cheng Kejia added, "I've decided to develop my career in Beijing from now on and won't be going back to X City."
Chu Nian nodded again and said, "That's good."
Cheng Kejia thought for a moment, then added, "I saw Ai Wen a couple of days ago. It seems he's also in the capital, and... and..."
Seeing her hesitate, Chu Nian asked curiously, "What's wrong? Is there something you're having trouble saying?"
Cheng Kejia: "No, it's not that. I just think he's weird. He looks listless, and there are several strange people around him."
Upon hearing this, Chu Nian's eyelids twitched immediately, and she asked, "Strange person? What strange person?"
Cheng Kejia hesitated for a moment before saying, "I can't really explain it. I just feel like they... they're not ordinary people. Oh, there was a man whose hands... his hands seemed to turn into knives..."
Chu Nian's heart skipped a beat: Luo Bin, the knife-wielding man?! A successful research result from the underground laboratory in the capital. However, because Luo Bin was an experimental subject, although he successfully gained a hand that could transform into a knife and his combat power far exceeded that of ordinary people, unfortunately, his lifespan was short.
After becoming president, Chen Zhao managed to destroy the laboratory by turning Luo Bin against his cause. Luo Bin was initially overjoyed at the success of his research, believing he had truly become a warrior with superpowers, but by the fourth year, his body was rapidly aging. Shortly after Chen Zhao destroyed the laboratory, he died of old age, only five years after he had transformed into the Blade Hand.
Then Cheng Kejia said, "I think Ai Wen might have been kidnapped by them. Anyway, Ai Wen was definitely not free at the time, and his mental state was also very bad. It is very likely that he was tortured and abused by them."
Chu Nian: "Ai Wen has nothing to do with me anymore." She noticed that Cheng Kejia's eyes were evasive when she talked about this, so she was either lying or hiding something.
Cheng Kejia said, "I know what he did really hurt you. I'm telling you this not so you'll go and save him, but because I think the people who took him away are strange. Actually, I've long noticed that Ai Wen is a bit different from ordinary people, and you... you should be too, right?"
Chu Nian questioned, "What exactly are you trying to say?"
Cheng Kejia hesitated for a moment, then said, "I have a friend who is very intelligent, just like you. He skipped grades in school and graduated with a doctorate early. He was recruited by the government into a special laboratory. He told me that Ai Wen was there, and that he was... one of their experimental subjects."
Chu Nian sneered, "That sounds like such a coincidence. Is there really such a coincidence in this world?"
Cheng Kejia: "As I said before, when I met Ai Wen, I saw several strange people around him. One of them could turn his hand into a knife, and the other one was him."
