Chapter 725 - 727: Chip Robot
Chapter 725: Chapter 727: Chip Robot Amy had barely finished speaking when Shitou looked at her and said, "What chip, and what are the dangers?"
"I don’t know about that," replied Amy.
"Captain Ai, just tell us everything you know, it’ll be easier for us to investigate," one of Shitou’s subordinates spoke up.
"I don’t know," Amy said, holding her head. "I can’t remember."
"Maybe hypnosis..."
Amy immediately showed displeasure, "I’ve already tried hypnosis. It simply didn’t work. I just can’t remember now, but I’ll gradually recall it."
That was what Amy had said, and there was nothing more the others could do. They thought they might get some useful information from Amy, but they didn’t know the higher-ups had placed several undercover agents, and the higher-ups wouldn’t easily reveal that information.
This time, with Shitou rescuing Amy, they naturally wanted to get useful information from her, but Amy wasn’t that cooperative. Plus, with the weight of Amy’s family background, they couldn’t force her to cooperate.
Shitou uttered an "Oh," then stood up, "I understand, you guys continue, I have to leave for now."
"Peize, Major Gao," Amy called out gloomily as she went out but could no longer see Shitou.
Amy felt frustrated.
Seeing this, Shitou’s two subordinates shrugged their shoulders. Although they felt their boss could extract information from Amy by turning on his charm, it was clear he wasn’t attracted to Amy and definitely didn’t want to cooperate.
When Amy left, Shitou returned and told his two subordinates:
"Wang Long, keep an eye on Amy privately. Li Qiang, have someone watch over the Ai family."
As soon as Shitou finished speaking, Wang Long and Li Qiang said, "Boss, if you were willing to interact with Amy, it would be easier to get information from her. She definitely knows something, but she’s not willing to talk."
"If I need to get involved personally, what use are you?" Shitou glanced at them sharply, making it clear he would not personally approach Amy to seduce information out of her.
"As for the matter of the chip, I’ll investigate it," Shitou said, his eyes narrowing as he thought about the chip Amy mentioned was harmful to the human body.
Shitou left the military unit, drove home, at this time Xia Xiao and Gao Jiaxing were out for a walk, and weren’t at home. Shitou greeted the housekeeper, went directly upstairs, unlocked a password, and entered the laboratory.
Chip—he remembered that he had obtained some data from Charles’s underground base.
The robots’ brains were also equipped with chips. Shitou was searching on his computer when his gaze suddenly fell on the robot, and he walked towards it.
Chip, harmful to the human body.
Could Charles have developed a chip capable of controlling humans?
At that moment, Shitou’s expression turned serious.
If that was the case, there was definitely something wrong with Amy.
He didn’t want to suspect Amy, although he didn’t like her, but what if Amy was controlled by a chip?
Shitou’s fingers tapped lightly on the table, sinking into deep thought.
He too was researching chips, but Shitou was more focused on robots, aiming to improve them. The two robots at home had been modified well by Shitou.
But Shitou hadn’t started using them yet.
Clearly, Charles had developed a new type of robot, far more advanced than typical smart robots, but Charles had not promoted them. What exactly was he trying to do?
This time, Shitou went to rescue Amy, but gained little useful information. Instead, due to Amy’s exposure, they had constantly been chased, hiding everywhere only to be found, which left him exhausted.
He even suspected a tracker had been implanted in Amy, but Amy denied it, and after checking her belongings, Shitou found no tracker.
But what if Amy really had a chip implanted in her?
Thinking about this possibility and recalling the incident at the Military District Hospital, he didn’t want to suspect Amy or the Ai family, but he couldn’t help including Amy and even the entire Ai family in the list of suspects.
Looking at the two robots in front of him, in terms of functionality, they were equivalent to a human computer—they could serve as an encyclopedia but also handle simple household chores.
When Xia Xiao and Gao Jiaxing came back, Shitou took them to the laboratory and introduced the robots to Xia Xiao and Gao Jiaxing.
"Grandpa and Grandma, these are the robots I modified. The original models were from Charles’s underground base. I want Uncle to build a robot factory here, produce a batch of robots, and have them launched by Gaoxia Group."
This raised no objections; Gao Jiaxing and Xia Xiao were very interested in the two robots.
They could sweep the floor, wipe the table, and serve tea and water—all properly and politely. These robots could even function as simple secretaries, recording and scheduling daily work tasks, answering any questions—a highly humanized feature indeed.
"Are these two robots staying at home?" Xia Xiao asked.
"Yes, I’ve understood all about the materials and production process for the robots. I’ll teach Jianjian and Kangkang, let them research this and take charge of this task."
At this, Gao Jiaxing and Xia Xiao’s expressions turned serious.
"What is Charles trying to do?" Xia Xiao asked.
"Using chips to control humans and machines—that’s not good. Charles’s ambition is enormous, and this must be stopped," said Gao Jiaxing, his face very serious as he looked at Shitou. "It would be best to find out to what extent these chips can control people and how to counter them."
"I suspect Amy is controlled by a chip, but since she is from the Ai family, trying to get her examined would definitely not be agreed upon by the Ais, and Amy isn’t willing to cooperate either," said Shitou.
"Amy had a full body examination after she came back, didn’t she?" Gao Jiaxing said, as routine examinations are mandatory.
"But the people who examined Amy are from the Ai family."
As soon as Shitou mentioned this, Gao Jiaxing and Xia Xiao fell silent; it was indeed a possibility.
"Keep someone on this discreetly. Now they are out in the open, and we are in the shadows. Let’s not startle them," Gao Jiaxing said. He, too, was reluctant to suspect the Ai family, but with the chip capable of controlling people, there was a chance the Ais might be controlled too, complicating matters.
"I understand. I already have people watching over the Ai family and Amy." After discussing this with Xia Xiao and Gao Jiaxing, Shitou also shared his suspicions with Feiyang.
Feiyang, taken aback, said to Shitou, "Shanyue also suspects this."
The investigation for an insider at Feiyang’s end wasn’t going well. They had checked people entering and leaving the hospital and the internal staff at the Military District Hospital but found nothing.
And the only ones not investigated were the Ais.
