102 This is an order
◎Return one by one◎
"You are, Qi Qiuxue..." Liu Ge's eyes gradually lost focus when he heard Qi Qiuxue's voice.
"Yes." Qi Qiuxue responded, "I am Qi Qiuxue."
Liu Ge frowned, as if gradually recalling something, and said slowly, "Yes, we once had an agreement."
"Liu Ge should listen to Qi Qiuxue. It's like this..." She repeated these words silently, her every move once again proving the power of the hypnotic potion. "What do you want from me?"
Time was limited. Even with Wu Shanyue and Qingqing keeping watch outside, they couldn't delay for too long. Qi Qiuxue got straight to the point: "How did they implant the chip in you?"
"They used a needle-like instrument, but the tip was thicker than a regular needle." Liu Ge tried to recall what happened last night. "They parked the car at a laboratory building, opened the door, and someone quickly came to meet me and took me to the operating room."
"They carefully cleaned the skin at the back of my head, shaved off some of my hair, and pressed the instrument against the back of my head. Almost instantly, I felt something pierce my skin."
"What happened next?" Qi Qiuxue quickly checked the area behind Liu Ge's head. There was indeed a very small area without hair. Fortunately, her hair was thick, and that area was blocked by other hair and was not conspicuous.
It seemed that the chip was much smaller than she had imagined, and the injection process was very simple and quick, and the subjects could hardly feel any pain.
"After that..." Liu Ge blinked, then suddenly clutched his head in agony. "There was this voice in my head that kept talking to me. It was regulating my behavior, telling me what to do and what not to do. If I disobeyed its commands, I would be punished!"
"Is it talking to you now?" Qi Qiuxue asked.
Liu Ge shook his head, not sure if this brief moment of freedom was the result of the hypnotic potion: "Not yet..."
"Okay." Qi Qiuxue felt relieved. "What did it tell you to do?"
"It forces me to get up at five in the morning, read, exercise, learn etiquette and upper-class culture, arrive at work on time at eight o'clock and start the day's work. It wants me to keep smiling at all times and constantly brainwash myself. I am the happiest and most joyful, and there is no place better than the new world, no place..."
"How perverted!" Li Yiqing sighed after hearing this. "No wonder those new humans are always smiling. It turns out it's the result of discipline, not from the heart."
"What if you disobey its instructions?" Qi Qiuxue asked again.
"That chip will release an electric current." Liu Ge hugged himself with his arms across his chest in pain, his unfocused eyes filled with fear. "The electric shock is very painful. It lasts for different lengths of time and has different intensities depending on the severity of the error. It's a sensation that causes severe pain all over the body, making it impossible to breathe, as if you're on the verge of death..."
The degree of error.
Qi Qiuxue paused, then asked, "Is there a more severe punishment?"
"Yes." Liu Ge nodded, his voice trembling. "When the mistakes we make are too serious, we will be taken to the punishment room and receive different degrees of punishment."
Qi Qiuxue continued to ask: "What exactly happened?"
"I don't know." Liu Ge shook his head vigorously, "I don't know!"
She looked overwhelmed and on the verge of collapse.
Li Yiqing felt a little reluctant when he saw this: "Axue, why don't we forget about it today and come back another day..."
"No." Qi Qiuxue shook her head. As a new human, Liu Ge looked fragile and timid, but that didn't mean she was the same as a player. Qi Qiuxue knew that Liu Ge's ability to withstand pressure was thousands of times stronger than what she showed at this moment.
She paused briefly, waiting for Liu Ge to calm down, and then asked, "What level of error would it take to be sent to the punishment room?"
"The least serious offense is insulting others." Liu Ge answered Qi Qiuxue's question somewhat weakly. "The residents of the new world should live in harmony and should not do anything that disrupts harmony."
Swearing, does that mean I have to endure a punishment more severe than electric shock?
"Axue, someone is coming!" Wu Shanyue's voice came from the alley. Several guests left from the back door of the bar and were walking towards this side side by side.
Those decision makers seem to be very conscientious. They know how to let the residents of the new world have a balance between work and rest, and not forget to have fun after work. But whether that fun is something the residents want to do voluntarily out of instinct or is directed by the chip remains to be explored.
"I understand. You go first and we'll meet in front of the park over there." Qi Qiuxue didn't want others to find out about her contact with Liu Ge tonight, so she prepared to leave from the other side of the alley with Li Yiqing.
But before leaving, she didn't forget to assign Liu Ge a new task: "Don't mention what happened tonight to anyone. You haven't seen any of us."
"Okay." Liu Ge nodded and obeyed.
But that wasn't the end of it. Qi Qiuxue took a deep breath and finally, according to her previous plan, delivered her order: "After returning to the bar, you were in a bad mood due to a mistake at work. You ignored Chip's instructions and insulted your colleagues."
"If you are subsequently taken to the punishment room, please remember everything you saw, heard, and felt."
Punishment Room...
When Liu Ge heard these three words, his body trembled again reflexively: "Can I not..."
"No." Qi Qiuxue interrupted her, even saying ruthlessly, "This is an order."
With just one order, Liu Ge had to change his mind and obey all her arrangements.
"Okay." Liu Ge nodded, and the three of them split into two groups and left in different directions. Qi Qiuxue and Li Yiqing ran quickly to the park and met up with Wu Shanyue and Qingqing who were already waiting there.
The four of them then turned back again and stood a little further away from the bar, watching what was about to happen.
Soon, a group of people drove to the bar as if they had received the message.
Because the distance was too far, Qi Qiuxue could not see the appearance of the people coming clearly, but judging from their clothes and body shape, they should not be the people who came to pick up Liu Ge in the early morning.
Could it be the subordinates of those decision makers?
Qi Qiuxue silently took note of this and saw with her own eyes that they quickly walked into the bar, brought out Liu Ge who had made a mistake, and took him to the car.
Liu Ge was still struggling, and the sound was so loud that even Qi Qiuxue and others could hear it, but when she was taken to the car, the sound disappeared in an instant.
I'm afraid they did something, or maybe that chip did something.
Under the gaze of several people, the car slowly drove away into the distance.
Wu Shanyue's scalp tingled and her eyes even turned red. Even though this was a strategy that everyone had discussed long ago, when she really saw everything happening, she felt extremely angry and reluctant.
If Qi Qiuxue hadn't been there, she might have impulsively drawn her gun and chased after him.
Wu Shanyue turned around and looked at Qi Qiuxue behind him: "...Is Ah Liu going to be okay?"
"Yes." Qi Qiuxue opened her lips and answered her, "With your amulet protecting her, she will be fine."
Her demeanor seemed as usual, calm and indifferent, but if you listened carefully, you could detect the subtle displeasure and anger in her voice.
It turns out that Axue was also angry.
Wu Shanyue clenched his fists and said righteously, "These people will definitely get their comeuppance someday!"
"Yeah." Qi Qiuxue nodded. It was getting late, and it was time to leave. "I've taken note of everything the other party did."
"I must ask them to return them one by one in the future."
