Unconventional security

Chapter 24: Are you an android?

When Chen Bei and his companion saw that Qian Feng actually knew, their eyes lit up!

"Brother Qian, could you explain in more detail?"

Qian Feng glanced at him and asked cautiously, "You're not going to go find him, are you?"

"Let me tell you, that guy is really strange. Don't cause me any more trouble."

Chen Bei chuckled and said with a forced smile, "How could that be? Last time it was purely an accident. Who would have thought the third level would be a battle royale?"

"I was browsing through the information in District 9 today when I suddenly noticed this person and became quite interested in them."

After he finished speaking, Ye Zhixue, who was standing next to him, also agreed, which dispelled Qian Feng's concerns.

"I don't know much about Cao Chengxiu either. You can find this information online. The only thing I've ever had contact with him about is his prosthetic leg."

"The prosthetic limbs are both legs, a specialty of the 3rd District, and the brand name is Zhuri No. 3. To this day, it is still among the top-tier products."

"Actually, I didn't even see him when the goods were delivered. I just put them in the designated location as required, and the 100 million yuan commission was deposited into my account."

Qian Feng recalled, telling the two as many details as possible.

Chen Bei was slightly disappointed after hearing this. He had thought he would hear some important news, but Qian Feng didn't even know what the other person looked like.

There's no picture of Boss Cao online either; he's quite mysterious.

"What should we do? Do we really have to go and kneel there tomorrow?"

"Let's talk about it tomorrow morning. If all else fails, we'll just have to try and throw 100 million city-state coins down the drain..."

The next day, early in the morning.

Seven o'clock in the morning.

"Why is this kid still doing this? It's never going to end."

"It's been three days already. Boss Cao is really patient; why hasn't he kicked him out yet?"

"You guys don't come to District D often. This is nothing. A couple of years ago, someone kowtowed for a whole month straight, and his head was almost deformed from all the kowtowing."

"Did Boss Cao see him?"

"No, he hit his head and broke it open, so he was taken away by ambulance."

As soon as Chen Bei and his companion arrived at the location, they saw Song Ming kowtowing frantically, just like yesterday.

However, after learning what the other person had gone through, Chen Bei could no longer laugh.

Pulling Ye Zhixue along, Songming noticed two shadows approaching on the ground and looked up.

"You two are here too. Quickly kneel down next to me, the three of us kowtowing together will definitely work!"

"The more people there are, the more lively it will be. Boss Cao will more or less notice us then..."

Song Ming was overjoyed, as if he had found a teammate, but before he could finish speaking, Chen Bei spoke up.

"We're here to give you a five-minute break."

"Shall I rest for five minutes?"

Song Ming was stunned for a moment, then realized what he had done. "How foolish! How foolish! That's a million!"

"You'd only get five minutes to see someone for a million, and they might not even acknowledge you. Did your money grow on trees?!"

The onlookers watched as Chen Bei and Ye Zhixue walked to the shop entrance. At first, no one realized anything until Chen Bei took out his black card and swiped it on the machine next to the door.

drop!

The shop door slowly opened.

"Holy crap! Someone actually spent a million to meet Boss Cao?! I thought everything I read online was fake!"

"This guy is obviously not a local. For over ten years, people have thought that by paying money to see Boss Cao, they could get things done, but in the end, not a single one of them has succeeded."

"I doubt these young people are going to have a good time. I wonder which rich kid is trying to show off in front of the girls."

"I hate rich people."

The onlookers were even more enthusiastic than when they were mocking Songming earlier, and some even took photos and posted them online.

Chen Bei was unaware that his simple act of swiping his card to meet someone had already become a hot topic on the online forums of the 9th District.

Upon entering the shop, you find yourself in a teahouse.

The ground is all made of wood, completely different from the dazzling and technological feel of the outside world.

Chen Bei looked inside and saw a middle-aged man sitting at the tea table, brewing tea alone.

"Come in, I am Cao Chengxiu."

The man spoke; he had a wheatish complexion and strong features, making him quite eye-catching even in a crowd.

Unexpectedly, this faceless person who is so mysterious online is actually quite good-looking.

Chen Bei responded and walked over to him. Just as he and Ye Zhixue sat down opposite him, his head buzzed, accompanied by a slight tinnitus, and his headache returned.

Chen Bei propped his head up; the pain was much less intense than before and was still within a tolerable range.

Unlike before, this time he saw those white lights again.

Following the direction in which the white light gathered, Chen Bei turned his head to look at Cao Chengxiu sitting opposite him. The white light clusters formed by those white lights were floating above Cao Chengxiu.

"What's going on?"

Chen Bei was puzzled. According to the letter, these white rays represented soul molecules, so why did they react to Cao Chengxiu?

Why do they not react to Ye Zhixue but to others? Do they not have souls?

Shouldn't everyone have this?

It may also appear when encountering the soul molecules of certain intelligent beings, but without the symptom of headache.

My headaches used to occur involuntarily at night, or only when I encountered those three androids, but there was no white light at that time.

The pain in my brain began to intensify, with a vague tearing sensation.

Why is this happening? It's just that a sudden headache shouldn't be happening at this time. Ever since I unlocked a genetic lock, headaches only occur in the middle of the night.

Is it that vial of medicine?

Did that potion work on my soul? It was also the potion that caused my mental gene lock threshold to rise to 90%.

But the core mystery still can't be explained!

If this continues, we won't be able to communicate at all, and this million will be wasted!

"What's wrong? You don't look well?"

Cao Chengxiu looked at Chen Bei and handed him a cup of tea, saying, "Have some tea to calm your nerves and soothe your mind."

Seeing Chen Bei propping his head up, Ye Zhixue immediately recalled his headache from that day. "Do you want to rest for a while?"

Chen Bei shook his head, forced a smile, took the teacup, and took a sip.

The headache symptoms were relieved quite a bit after taking a sip of the tea.

Chen Bei's eyes lit up. This tea could have such an effect?

After drinking a few more sips, the headache gradually lessened.

"It seems you've been under a lot of stress lately. You can take some of this tea with you later."

Cao Chengxiu smiled slightly, "However, I need to remind you that there are only three minutes left."

Ye Zhixue was startled; half the time had already been wasted so quickly. Seeing Chen Bei still sipping his tea like a chicken pecking at rice, she had no choice but to speak up herself.

"Boss Cao, we would like to ask you to hack into the information brain terminal and investigate some information and data."

Upon hearing this, Cao Chengxiu simply nodded slightly and handed her another cup of tea, saying, "I will consider it."

"We can pay a certain fee; you name your price."

"I'll consider it."

"Or we could trade some information, or what are your terms?"

"I'll consider it."

The other party was completely unresponsive; no matter what Ye Zhixue said, he only said one thing.

With only ten seconds left, Chen Bei, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up.

"Boss Cao, are you an AI android?"
