Wanjie Hotel: Iron Man is not allowed to charge

Chapter 176 Miss 2B's Surprise (7K views, please vote)
When Wen Ming rushed back to the hotel, it was already midnight.

He greeted Charon and went straight back to his master bedroom. Just as he was about to close the door, Perkins' long legs quickly stretched in, blocking the door from closing: "Boss, you promised to punish me properly tonight."

Wen Ming rubbed his temples: "That was just a joke, and I'm very tired."

Perkins said with a serious expression, "Boss, don't move."

Wen Ming could only sigh and say, "Fine."

Perkins walked in overjoyed, and before entering, she gave her ninth brother a smug look.

Ninth Brother shrugged: "You'd better hurry up, I'm worried someone will come knocking on the boss's door in a bit."

"Shut your crow mouth!"

Perkins quickly closed the door.

Ninth Brother leaned against the wall, bored, his mind racing. It seemed like 2B hadn't been here for a long time, and he wondered how her work was going.

"Beep! The time traveler has alerted us that 2B and two androids have arrived."

Based on observations, there is a 99% chance that one of the androids is A2.

There's a 99% chance the other android is 9S; please prepare accordingly!

Ninth Brother straightened up abruptly.

Is 2B here?

Haha, here comes my 2B?

I'm going to pick her up!
Ninth Brother was eager to go to the elevator, but just as he took a step, he suddenly realized: "I can't go, I still have to stay with the boss."

"Yuanbao, go pick up 2B and the others for me."

"No need to pick them up. Have you forgotten? Charon will receive them."

Yuan Bao laughed and said, "It seems you care about 2B a lot, just like in games and anime."

"I just want to know her latest situation," Ninth Brother vehemently denied.

Yuan Bao said with great interest, "Really? This time 2B brought a 9S with him. Do you think he might care about 2B a lot?"

Ninth Brother clenched his fists tightly. He could feel the possessiveness belonging to 9S deep in his soul rising up wildly.

He fell completely silent.

However, after he remained silent for more than ten minutes, he still did not see the elevator doors open.

He looked towards the elevator with some suspicion: "What's going on? Why hasn't Charon brought them to see the boss yet?"

Yuan Bao chuckled: "It's 1 a.m. now. Do you think Charon would be so stupid as to let 2B, A2, and 9S come to see the boss at this hour?"

Are you hoping Charon will get beaten with a stick by the boss too? The boss definitely won't like that.

Ninth Brother paused for a moment, then realized he had been a bit out of line, and quickly changed the subject to cover it up: "Perkins's been inside for an hour?"

"Yes, it's been a full hour."

Yuan Bao lay down on the ground and found a comfortable position for himself: "I guess she won't come out tonight, I'll take a nap first."

You go to sleep too, just keep the radar and combat capability detectors on.

"Okay, you go to sleep first, I'll sleep later."

Seeing that Yuanbao was asleep, Ninth Brother's eyes unconsciously turned to the elevator door again.

How far has the plot progressed?

Is it about to end?

If the story ends, 2B and A2 will both stay at the hotel and become the boss's bodyguards, just like me.

Hehe, we can be together again from now on.

Lost in thought, the door behind him clicked open, and Perkins tiptoed out.

Seeing his ninth brother staring at him with wide eyes, Perkins reached out and pulled down his tactical goggles, covering his eyes: "Good boy, you didn't see anything. Don't say a word to anyone. That's the bodyguard's code."

"Don't worry, I definitely won't tell everyone that you went in wearing black stockings and came out without them."

Ninth Brother gave a friendly smile, and Perkins coughed lightly: "I bought you a 2B figure."

Ninth Brother immediately made a zipper-zipping motion over his mouth.

Perkins smiled with satisfaction and whispered in her ninth brother's ear, "I also bought you a 2B life-size body pillow."

Ninth Brother's hand clenched tightly: "Sister Perkins, I think you don't need to rush off."

It's already this late, it's almost time for the shift to change. Don't you have to come and wake the boss up every morning?
"Would you like to go in and start your morning service?"

Perkins' eyes suddenly lit up: "You're right."

After saying that, Perkins turned around and pushed open Wen Ming's bedroom door: "Go and rest. I'll take care of the bodyguard work today. My sister knows that 2B just came. You can stay with her all day."

The ninth brother was overjoyed: "Sister Perkins, from now on you will be my best sister."

"Follow your sister, and you'll enjoy life to the fullest in the future."

Perkins turned around with a grin and went back into the house.

The ninth brother chuckled as he got up and walked towards the elevator, arriving on the first floor: "Charon, which room are 2B and the others staying in?"

"The three of them booked a room, 322."

Charon was somewhat surprised: "You don't need to watch over the boss?"

"No need, Perkins is protecting the boss closely."

Ninth Brother was eager to get on the elevator when Charon, barely suppressing a laugh, reminded him again, "The three of them only booked one room."

Ninth Brother hadn't paid any attention at first, but the moment he stepped into the elevator, he suddenly stopped: "Three people, one room?"

"Yes!"

Charon smiled brightly: "So, are you sure you want to visit at this time?"

The ninth brother was struck dumb.

Three people in one room!?

My God, you idiot, you, you wouldn't...

The ninth brother's finger, which was originally pressing the button for the third floor, paused involuntarily for a moment, and finally, he pressed the button for the second floor.

Forget it, I'd better not disturb their private time.

Ninth Brother felt pain even when he was breathing.

This is how the same thing?

Could it be that my machine is damaged? Should I go back to the NieR: Automata universe for repairs?

The problem is, if I want to go back, I need 2B to hold my hand.

Ah, I don't think I've ever held 2B's hand.

Ninth Brother felt his mind was in a mess, so much so that he didn't even realize when it was dawn.

When he got up listlessly and went to the restaurant, he was surprised to see 2B, A2, and 9S sitting at a table having a meal.

Ninth Brother was overjoyed.

The chairs at this dining table are wooden chairs that the owner specially purchased. They have excellent load-bearing capacity and are strong enough to support the extremely large weight of the artificial people.

2B and A2 had gentle, happy, and blissful smiles on their faces, while 9S was carefully cutting a steak beside them.

The morning sunlight streamed through the arched window and fell on the three of them; everything was so harmonious.

The ninth brother, who was about to walk over, suddenly stopped.

Would I ruin such a beautiful scene if I went there?

Just then, a girl's voice rang in my ears: "They're one short for the mahjong over there, are you sure you don't want to go sit down?"

"Oh? Yes, that's right, okay, I'll go right away."

The ninth brother seemed to awaken from a dream.

That's right, we were indeed one player short for the three-player game.

I will be more perfect in the past!

Ninth Brother lifted his foot to walk over, but before leaving, he didn't forget to thank the pretty girl beside him: "Thank you, Antonia."

Antonia chuckled, then turned to Yelena beside her and whispered, "I bet he'll lose to that kid who looks exactly like him."

Yelena chuckled: "I'm not betting with you, you're sure to win."

"Antonia, Yelena, don't talk about others behind their backs. It's bad behavior," Melina's voice rang out behind them.

The girls stuck out their tongues and said, "We know, Mom."

Melina put her arm around the two of them and led them forward: "Today is a day off, you can go to the shopping plaza next door, but remember to wear your Kryptonite glasses and keep track of the distance, don't go more than 100 meters away."

Yelena asked doubtfully, "At our age, no one should recognize us, right?"

Melina shook her head and said, "Just in case."

Antonia suddenly asked, "Or, shall we go play in other universes?"

Yelena suddenly became excited: "Shall we go to Bulma's universe to see dinosaurs?"

Antonia also became interested, and she turned to Melina: "Mom, can we go?"

Yelena grabbed Melina's arm and shook it violently: "Mom, please, if it's really impossible, we can go watch Little Wukong train. I want to see him being chased by dinosaurs."

"Alright, but I need to ask the boss to borrow Yuan Ying or Yuan Long to protect you. Your current strength is too weak."

Melina's heart softened when she saw the expectant looks in Antonia and Yelena's eyes.

These two children had been trained as assassins and suffered greatly. Now that they had finally been rescued, I had to do everything I could to make up for what they had lost over the years.

"Borrow it from the boss? Let's go!"

Antonia and Yelena exchanged a glance, then excitedly turned and ran towards the elevator.

Melina tried to stop them, but the two women had already rushed into the elevator, and she could only shake her head helplessly.

Go ahead, the boss spoils them anyway, he'll definitely agree.

The boss should be up by now... right?

Melina took her breakfast while thinking, and then sat down at the table next to her ninth brother.

Well, Melina would never admit that she also wanted to hear gossip.

"Rebecca, come sit here."

“Maria, Martha, over here.”

……

Yelena and Antonia excitedly rushed to the 16th floor. Yuan Bao was still sleeping on the floor and didn't get up when he saw the two of them: "Are you looking for the boss?"

"Yes, we need to speak with the boss. Is the boss awake yet?" Yelena greeted Yuan Bao politely and then asked.

"I'm not sure. He usually gets up at this time. Why don't you knock on the door and check?"

Upon hearing Yuan Bao's permission, Yelena excitedly knocked on the door, and soon the two heard a voice from inside: "Please come in."

"Boss, we are here."

Yelena and Antonia rushed into the house happily, and then saw Wen Ming lying on his side on the big bed reading a book. He was covered with a summer blanket and one leg was propped up.

"Um, what brings you all here?"

Wen Ming looked at the two women with some surprise. The two women took turns explaining their idea of ​​going to the Dragon Ball universe to see dinosaurs. Then Yelena put her hands together in front of her chest and pleaded, "Please, let Yuanlong come with us."

Why not Yuan Ying?

Wen Ming asked with a smile.

"He talks too much."

Antonia didn't hesitate to criticize.

Wen Ming was about to say something when he suddenly frowned. Yelena and Antonia quickly asked, "Boss, what's wrong?"

"It's okay, oh, it's okay."

Wen Ming took a deep breath and then said, "I'll have Yuan Long and Yuan She accompany you, and have Yuan Ying and Yuan Bao guard the house."

"Thank you, boss! You're amazing!"

Yelena excitedly rushed to Wen Ming, grabbed his head, and kissed him on the forehead. Antonia followed closely behind, her eyes filled with joy and happiness.

After being reformed, she hasn't had a proper chance to play for many years.

"Go ahead, and by the way, remember to have Yuanlong and Yuanshe hunt a few dinosaurs for me. I'll make you a dinosaur feast. I wonder if dinosaur meat will taste good."

Wen Ming, holding a book, couldn't resist and let the two kiss him. He then reminded them to be careful: "Don't stray too far from Little Goku and Master Roshi after you get there." "Don't worry, we're off!"

Yelena and Antonia held hands and quickly ran out of Wenming's bedroom.

When Yuan Bao saw the two men come out, he waved goodbye and casually asked, "Have you seen Perkins?"

"Perkins? No, I don't."

The two women looked at each other and both shook their heads.

"They're probably taking a shower."

Yuan Bao chuckled. Yelena and Antonia, not knowing what he was laughing about, waved goodbye to him and then happily went up to the rooftop to find Yuan Long and Yuan She and explain Wen Ming's intentions.

"Why? Why can't I go?"

Yuan Ying immediately exploded: "This is so fun, no, such a difficult task, I definitely have to take the lead! No way, I'm going to find the boss right now."

Yuan Ying angrily shrank his body and flew quickly toward Wen Ming's bedroom, only to be stopped by Yuan Bao as soon as he reached the door.

Why are you stopping me?

"The boss is busy."

"What are you busy doing so early in the morning?"

"correct."

……

"Are you the latest 9S model?"

Ninth Brother smiled his gentlest smile at 9S, who was carefully studying human food.

9S nodded and said, "Yes, I was just activated and this is the first time I've seen real humans and human food."

Everything here is amazing. So this is what the human world is like; it's quite different from what's described in books.

"If I come here often, I'll be able to see even more."

Ninth Brother adopted the attitude of a master, and 2B, who was standing to the side, immediately said, "He will be staying in the hotel from now on."

"what?"

Ninth Brother looked at 2B in surprise, then suddenly remembered something: "Is it the method the boss taught you last time, to intercept every 9S who went on a mission with you?"

"correct."

2B savored the food in front of her, growing to like the hotel more and more.

This place is simply—

"Heaven, 2B, have you taken me to heaven?"

A2's gloomy expression was now lightened by the delicious food. She looked at the restaurant, which was gradually becoming lively, and a look of nostalgia flashed in her eyes.

If those comrades were alive today, they would surely be just as happy as I am.

This is the ultimate goal we strive for.

"Heaven?"

2B stopped eating, carefully considering the word, and then nodded heavily, saying, "Wherever there are humans, that is our paradise."

"So, you slept in the same room last night?"

Ninth Brother drew everyone's attention back. 2B and A2 continued to enjoy their food, while 9S politely replied, "Yes, we'll share a room."

Ninth Brother gripped his knife and fork tightly, and Melina and the other women sitting behind him all perked up their ears.

"I remember that a standard room only has two beds, right?"

"Ninth Brother asked softly."

"Yes, I didn't sleep; I was standing on duty."

9S naturally said, "2B doesn't have gold to pay right now, so we have to be frugal."

At this point, 2B and A2, who were eating, paused simultaneously, and suddenly found the food in front of them unappetizing.

When Ninth Brother heard that 9S wasn't sleeping in the bed, he was overjoyed. He forced a smile and said, "I've earned a lot of money recently, so I can book two more rooms for you. And I can cover your expenses when you come to the hotel in the future."

Melina, Rebecca, and the other women sitting behind Ninth Brother exchanged glances and all saw the smile in each other's eyes.

At this moment, 2B shook his head and said, "Keep your money for yourself to maintain and upgrade. I brought what Wenming wanted this time, and we will have gold soon."

"Really? That's great."

Ninth Brother felt his throat was a little dry, so he quickly picked up the lemon water in front of him and drank it all in one gulp.

Why is it bitter?

Shouldn't it be sour?
……

“Poor Ninth Brother,” Rebecca whispered to Maria.

Maria shook her head and said, "If only Tony could treat Pepper like that, wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Martha sighed, "Young people always have to go through things to grow up. I'm so worried about Bruce and Rachel."

The two mothers' concerns made Melina worry about her own three daughters: "Yelena and Antonia are still young, but Natasha can't be a secret agent forever."

"Don't worry, Natasha is destined to work at the hotel, and the boss likes her very much."

Maria comforted Melina with understanding, while Rebecca, standing to the side, flashed a strange light in her eyes. She smiled and said, "With the boss by your side, are you afraid of not having a way out?"

Melina's mood improved, and just as she was about to say something, she saw Wen Ming come to the group: "Good morning, 2B, A2, 9S, are you all enjoying the food?"

"A wonderful breakfast."

When the three androids saw Wen Ming, they immediately stood up and greeted him. Wen Ming pulled up a stool and sat down next to them. He first greeted Rebecca and the others, then looked at 2B and said, "Keep eating. I want to eat too. I was exhausted last night."

Wen Ming's arrival made A2 somewhat reserved. She secretly observed the handsome young man in front of her, constantly wondering what kind of amazing being he was, that he could operate such a powerful spatial rift.

9S continued eating properly. Ninth Brother originally wanted to probe further about what happened last night, but since the boss was here, he could only keep quiet.

However, he gradually began to see a clue.

After the group finished their meal and returned to Wenming's office, Ninth Brother immediately confirmed his guess.

“9S has just been activated and has not yet developed real emotions, so he is just an ordinary android and does not take up my three slots.”

2B pointed to A2 next to her and said, "A2 should be considered to have taken up a spot, but it's also possible that she is one of the female leads, so she doesn't take up a spot."

"I understand that it's impossible to be completely certain until the story is over."

Wen Ming first looked at 9S. His face had the same gentleness as his ninth brother's, but it was obvious that he lacked a soul.

Just as Wenming had planned, 2B was preparing to bring the mass-produced 9S models one by one to the Iron Hotel.

The execution capability of 2B is excellent.

She's already snatched another android for herself so quickly. I can't wait for the day when the bunker is completely emptied.

Just think about it and be happy.

After understanding, Ninth Brother stopped being hostile to 9S.

I'm not on the same level as him, so why should I be jealous?
"9S, you can stay at the hotel for now, and go back with 2B when she is ready to launch a full-scale attack on the machine lifeforms. Alternatively, you can go back with A2 and establish a ground base together."

9S responded, "My mission objective is to ensure that humanity regains control of the ground and restores order, so your orders are my supreme command. I will do whatever you tell me to do."

For the YoRHa forces, the highest level of authority belongs to the Human Council, so once members of the YoRHa forces meet real humans, they will naturally do their best to meet the humans' requests.

When 9S was brought from NieR: Automata by 2B, he was very resistant, but when he saw the first human, he completely accepted everything.

Wen Ming nodded, then looked at A2: "These past years, you must have had a tough time all by yourself."

A simple sentence brought tears to A2's eyes. The usually cool and aloof android had never felt so warm before.

From the moment 4A self-destructed, she felt as if she had died.

Now, her cold heart is being warmed by a touch of warmth.

“The past cannot be changed, but the deaths of 4A and the others have become your belief and motivation to move forward.”

This perseverance will soon bear fruit, and I will do everything in my power to help you achieve your goals.

Wen Ming solemnly made his promise.

The cool and sassy A2 girl suddenly shuddered. She was like a little girl who had just woken up from a nightmare and curled up in a ball, suddenly receiving the acceptance and love of her parents. This made the heart of this "lonely avenger" who was extremely insecure quickly filled with warmth.

She murmured involuntarily, "Have I really come to heaven?"

"No, this is not heaven, this is your future home."

Wen Ming's sincere smile finally brought a long-lost smile to Miss A2's face: "Thank you, thank you for accepting me..."

Miss A2 suddenly couldn't find the right words to describe herself. She wanted to say that she was a cold-blooded avenger, but she was afraid that the words would hurt the person in front of her who was trying to help her.

"You're such a pretty young lady."

Wen Ming picked up on her words at the right moment and said to Miss 2B, "2B, please help get A2 a brand new combat suit. If possible, please help her get a full treatment. I will cover all the expenses."

A2 is so beautiful, she should dress up nicely to welcome her new life.

"I, I'm fine with anything, I'm used to dressing like this."

A2 tugged at her tattered stockings with a hint of embarrassment. Having been fighting in the wild without any supplies, she realized for the first time how much she paled in comparison to the glamorous 2B.

Perhaps his attention was more focused on the more beautiful 2B.

Even though we use the same model, she is so dazzling.

"Ok, no problem."

Miss 2B agreed without hesitation: "I have a spare combat suit with me. As for maintenance, I need to sneak into the bunker. It just so happens that I need to go back to the bunker to report that '9S' has been killed in action again after I get back."

"Then you must be careful. If you have difficulty infiltrating, then let A2 be maintained here. I am also researching artificial human technology here."

Wen Ming looked at A2 and said apologetically, "I hope you don't mind that my maintenance skills are a bit lacking, after all, I've only just started researching this."

Miss A2 shook her head. She wanted to say something, but her heart felt as if it were blocked by an excessive electric current. She had never felt this way since she was born, especially after defecting from the bunker.

So warm.

"2B, what surprise did you bring me this time you came back?"

After calming the two newcomers down, Wen Ming finally got down to business with Miss 2B.

Without wasting any words, Miss 2B took out the all-purpose capsule and handed it to Wen Ming: "The flight components you wanted, the pure white Ho229 Type-S, and the technical blueprints for POD are all here."

As for android technology, that's the core technology of the bunker, and I haven't gotten my hands on it yet.

Wen Ming was overjoyed.

He never expected 2B to be so efficient. They had only been back for a few days and had already obtained such important technical blueprints for him. It seemed that his POD mass production plan could begin soon.

"I'll give you a reasonable price. What do you want from me this time?"

Wen Ming gestured for Qing to put away the flight components and POD technology, then looked at 2B.

"I want to attack the bunker directly."

2B was clearly prepared: "Once we take the bunker, we'll have a logistics base, which will allow us to launch a fierce attack on the machine lifeforms."

The bunker is completely undefended against me now; it should be relatively easy if I dismantle them from the inside.

I know the technical blueprints for this flight component and POD aren't enough to offset the cost of this hire, but I promise I will do my best to repay the debt after the battle.

At this point, Miss 2B stood up and bowed deeply to Wen Ming: "Please, please help me."

"And I."

A2 also stood up and bowed solemnly to Wen Ming: "After taking down the bunker and the mechanical lifeform, I am willing to serve you forever."

Upon seeing this, Ninth Brother immediately tried to speak before 9S, but Wen Ming waved his hand to stop everyone from saying anything and helped Miss 2B and Miss A2 up.

A glint of wisdom flashed in his eyes: "Perhaps you can take down the bunker without expending so much effort."

2B, A2, 9S, and Ninth Brother all looked at Wen Ming, unsure of what he meant by those words.

Suddenly, Qinghou chuckled softly, "2B, what is the point of your YoRHa forces?"

Miss 2B answered without hesitation: "Eliminate all mechanical life forms, ensure that humanity regains control of the ground and re-establishes order, restores humanity's glory, and ensures that humanity's honor endures forever."

This was 9S's reply to Wen Ming, and now 2B is replying again.

Qinghou continued, "What is the reason the headquarters lied to you about the continued existence of humanity?"

"To prevent us from losing morale and our sense of purpose."

Miss 2B had just said that when she suddenly realized what Qinghou meant.

Miss A2 also got excited. She looked at Wen Ming and realized that everything she had fought for seemed to be in her hands.

Wen Ming smiled and looked at Miss 2B and Miss A2: "You need humans, and I am a human, so why don't you just ask your commander to come and meet me?"
