Electronic Nezha

Chapter 125 Electronic Li Jing
I've wanted the phone for a long time, and I've wanted to contact Liu Zhenhua for a while now. But making these requests when we were unsure of who was friend or foe just now would only be a childish act.

I was ambushed by a strange guy before 10 a.m., and two hours have passed now. Liu Zhenhua and the others will be getting out of school soon.

I turned and walked out.

"Wait a minute," said Sixth Master. "Let our men go with you."

"is this necessary?"

“Absolutely! Since you have already openly revealed your identity to us, it is both reasonable and ethical for us to provide you with round-the-clock protection.”

"Then let's hurry up." I also understood that it was unlikely that we could just take Hao Hao with us at this point.

We went downstairs together, and Sixth Master shouted from the stairs: "Dolphin, Shark, you two accompany Liu Chuanfeng to pick up his son from school."

The man with the scar on the back of his hand and the man who was swept downstairs both answered at the same time.

Another man, who always seemed to be smiling, brought out several bulletproof vests.

The man with a scar on the back of his hand helped me put on my bulletproof vest while saying simply, "My code name is Dolphin. Let's look out for each other from now on."

"Oh, hello." The dolphin had the air of a leader, speaking concisely and moving nimbly.

Shark was rather indifferent. He had just walked a tightrope between life and death, yet he remained unmoved. When he saw me looking at him while putting on his bulletproof vest, he waved at me and said, "Shark." He didn't say anything else.

We've always seen bulletproof vests in movies, but this is the first time I've actually worn one. To be honest, it's uncomfortable. I wear military overcoats all the time, but this bulletproof vest is even heavier than a military overcoat. It's like putting the weight of an entire military overcoat on a vest and wearing it on your upper body. It's a bit like being squeezed between two fat people on a crowded bus during rush hour. I was originally thinking of wearing two vests for layering, but now I've completely given up on that idea.

The dolphin said, "This is considered light for a bulletproof vest. Luckily, that fish only had a pistol."

After helping me get dressed, the dolphin went to help Hao Hao, who said, "No need."

"Put it on!" I snapped at him.

Hao Hao had no choice but to put on the clothes reluctantly.

Sixth Master said, "Your mission is to protect Liu Chuanfeng. We'll discuss the rest when you get back. Also, from now on, everyone will be armed on every mission."

Upon hearing this, the smiling man took out two more submachine guns from a room on the first floor.

"Use this. Don't fixate on hitting the head until you figure out the monster's weaknesses."

Out of my CS player instincts, I took a closer look at the two guns. I didn't recognize them; they were neither the "Little Bee" nor the "Hair dryer."

The dolphin and the shark concealed their guns under their arms and put them on, then said to me, "We can set off now."

I asked Sixth Master, "Where exactly is this? Is it far from the school?"

Sixth Master said, "Your parents never worked in their entire lives, right?"

"You know that the Liu family has been in business for two generations, right?" I didn't believe he hadn't investigated my parents.

"No wonder you don't recognize this place," Sixth Master laughed. "You'll know once you step out the gate."

The four of us stepped out of the Loft. Outside was still the classic factory compound, with high red brick walls and a rather old-fashioned iron gate. There was a greenhouse in the factory area, covered with thick insulation cotton. Through the gaps in the corners, we could see cucumbers, persimmons, green beans, and other things inside.

The dolphin drove out in an SUV, and the shark whistled at me, looking at a dent on the front right of the vehicle. That was the spot where they had been tricked by Xiao Wu while they were following me.

Hao Hao and I sat in the back. As soon as the car left the factory gate, I was stunned when I saw the financial building in front of me. As a local, I recognized this place. This was the city center, less than a kilometer away from the municipal government, which meant that it would take at most ten minutes to drive to Liu Zhenhua's school.

Dolphin said as he drove, "Do you recognize it? This used to be a cotton mill. After the restructuring, it moved to the High-tech Zone, and this place was left idle until it became our office area."

I exclaimed, "You guys are truly living in seclusion in the city." The cotton mill was one of the famous landmarks in our area in the 1980s and 90s. When I was in school, some of my classmates' parents worked there. After the restructuring, I haven't seen any news about the factory, but if you were to pass by from the outside, I would know that it used to be a cotton mill.

While we were talking, I glanced at the time again.

"Are you in a hurry?" Dolphin glanced at me in the rearview mirror and noticeably sped up.

I took out my phone and sent a voice message to Liu Zhenhua: "Son, I've run into a little trouble. Don't go home after school, wait for me at the school gate."

Dolphin asked, "Does the school still allow cell phones?"

"My situation is special." When we arrived at the school gate, a large number of children had already poured out, but Liu Zhenhua neither came out nor replied to me. My heart couldn't help but jump. At this moment, Liu Zhenhua replied in a furtive whisper, "Okay, Wang Aili will hold the meeting."

The car stopped at the school gate, and the four of us remained silent. We didn't know each other very well to begin with, and we'd even had disagreements before. Dolphin showed Hao Hao the scar on the back of her hand.

"A penetrating wound, awesome!" This was inflicted by Hao Hao with bird droppings from the security fence.

Hao Hao said, "I'm sorry."

Dolphin laughed and said, "It's nothing. I'm not looking for trouble. I just really think you're awesome."

The shark asked, "Who taught you your kung fu?"

Hao Hao pointed at me.

Shark thought Hao Hao didn't want to talk, so he silently shook his head.

Just then, Liu Zhenhua came out. I had barely put my hand on the car door handle when the dolphins and sharks got out of the car and started patrolling around.

"Liu Zhenhua!" I waved and called out.

Liu Zhenhua was taken aback by our posture. He came over and asked me, "Dad, whose clothes are you wearing?"

The clothes were Sixth Master's woolen coat. I rushed up to the roof without wearing a coat this morning, so I had neither cigarettes nor a lighter. Now that I was wearing "soft armor" underneath, I had to borrow the old man's coat to go out.

"And who are these two?" Liu Zhenhua asked, referring to the dolphin and the shark.

“Old friend, remember when I was ambushed in the neighborhood? It was a misunderstanding, let’s talk about it when we get back,” I asked Dolphin. “Do we still have to go back to the cotton mill?”

The dolphin said, "That's right, you'll stay there for now until we're sure it's safe for you."

"Then I need to go back to my neighborhood and drive my car."

"No need. We'll take you wherever you go from now on."

"Let's drive it, my car is safer."

The dolphin said speechlessly, "It's just a small electric car."

"Ah."

A single "hmm" represents my persistence.

The dolphin said helplessly, "Then let's get in the car and go."

As usual, no one in the neighborhood was talking about the strange events and gunshots from that morning. I looked around the building, but I didn't see Yuan Yuan's "body" either.

When we got to Xiao Wu, the dolphin handed the keys to the SUV to the shark and said to me, "Let me drive your car."

"No need." I got into the driver's seat, Liu Zhenhua naturally sat in the passenger seat, and Dolphin and Hao Hao got into the back seat. I started the engine, patted the steering wheel and said, "Going to the old cotton mill, do you know the way?"

The car was silent. Dolphin asked curiously, "Weren't you driving? Who are you talking to?"

The car suddenly started and sped towards the entrance of the residential area.

The shark following behind was flustered and honked its horn twice to express its dissatisfaction.

Seeing that I was just sitting there calmly, the dolphin exclaimed in surprise, "Autopilot?"

“Not only that,” I said. “Xiao Wu, you can speak.”

"That abandoned factory area behind the Financial Building, bro, what happened to you?" Xiao Wu asked, scratching his mouth.

The dolphin was even more surprised: "Is there anything in your household that can't talk?"

I said calmly, "As a savior, it's normal to have a car that can drive itself, right?" As I spoke, I opened my coat to show Liu Zhenhua the bulletproof vest I was wearing underneath. "I've already confessed to the government that your dad is 'Electronic Li Jing'."
