Chapter 225 - 167 Jiang Shu, this darn thing!_2
Chapter 225: Chapter 167 Jiang Shu, this darn thing!_2At this moment, Jiang Shu was standing in front of the fence, where several poker cards had been stacked into a staircase before him. He stepped onto the staircase and entered past the fence.

If he were to reveal himself from invisibility now, what would appear on the surveillance cameras would be a person ablaze with blue flames, standing on a staircase also made of the same blue flames, like a knight walking out of Hell.

Jiang Shu looked in the direction of the building, pondering over the internal layout of the building he had memorized earlier, as well as the locations of the offices that were lit.

He needed to find someone with a high enough clearance level now to ask some questions and get a door card.

Based on the data collected earlier by Xiao Jia, there were also a large number of electronic devices underneath the building, but the public structural diagrams of the building didn’t reveal such a large space underground.

Clearly, there was a secret laboratory beneath White Eagle Building, and Liu Tingruo was likely there.

Although he could become invisible, he still hadn’t thought of a good way to sneak into the underground secret laboratory.

When in doubt, unleash a powerful attack?

Directly release the Bursting Soldiers and Repairing Snakes?

Jiang Shu shook his head. It wasn’t a gang of vicious mechanical disciples here in this science park, and randomly using the Repairing Snakes would definitely spell trouble.

He still needed clearance, and at this time...

Jiang Shu looked at the office on the top floor of the building that was lit.

According to the information found by Xiao Jia, to maintain the company’s ”wolf culture,” White Eagle Company’s CEO set an example by working overtime in the office until midnight every day, leaving with the last batch of employees from White Eagle.

Whether it was just for show or actually the case, in any event, this story was proudly featured on the homepage of the White Eagle Company’s official website.

Since it was promoted this way, at this point, the CEO should be in their own office, right?

Forcefully control him, then use Mind Reading to gather information, and finally use hypnosis or coercion to make him take oneself into the underground laboratory.

Although it was a bit rash, it was, after all, a straightforward and effective method, especially since his current array of Derivative Entries was luxurious enough to give him confidence.

All of a sudden, Jiang Shu felt Xiao Yi tug at his hair from his shoulder.

Following its direction, he saw a person wearing a white lab coat on the lawn, with a round-headed, round-bodied android robot that looked almost like the Android icon following her.

Each of the Android Robot’s mechanical arms was holding a large bag. It stood there on the edge of the lawn, hesitating to step forward, its green circular eyes filled with stubbornness.

That was...

Jiang Shu stared at the figure from a distance, first squinting and scrutinizing for a while, then suddenly his eyes widened.

Liu Tingruo!

He had never expected to encounter Liu Tingruo under these circumstances.

According to the normal progression of the story, shouldn’t he have faced countless hardships to enter the secret laboratory, and then staged a thrilling stealth drama to find Liu Tingruo?

How could it be...

Just this?

Subconsciously, Jiang Shu started slowly walking towards Liu Tingruo. Since he was invisible at the moment, he could observe her everyday state here.

Right, witness the true nature of this woman.

Drawing closer, he heard the robotic groundskeeper repeat something in a mechanical voice.

”Master, we should not walk across the lawn. Plants are human’s good friends, we must cherish them. Master, we should not walk across the lawn. Plants are human’s good friends, we must cherish them...” The Android Robot repeated the phrase over and over, its wheels firmly in place, showing no intent to follow its master across the grass.

”Three seconds for you to decide,” Liu Tingruo said coldly. She nudged the robot’s rear with the tip of her foot, ”Either follow me, or...”

She pondered seriously for a moment, then with the tone of threatening a little robot, she said, ”Or live with this patch of grass forever.”

On its electronic screen, the Android Robot simulated a ”sweating soybean” emoji, no, more like a sweating mung bean.

This sweating mung bean...

From a distance, it really was quite a scene from Hell.

Jiang Shu criticized in his mind.

”Master, what do you mean by... live together forever?” More sweat appeared on the Android Robot’s screen.

”Literally,” Liu Tingruo kicked it again, ”three seconds are up, you coming?”

”Pleased to serve you, my master,” the Android Robot suddenly made an elegant ”after you” gesture, and then took the lead in stepping onto the lawn.

A: Really lacks robotic ethics!

B: Indeed, such robots should be destroyed on sight.

C: Right, even dares to hesitate when ordered by Ruo Ma.

D: Unforgivable!

Jiang Shu: ”...”

Just, uh, flattering.

He gestured to Xiao Jia towards Liu Tingruo, signaling to use Mind Reading.

Xiao Jia understood, displaying Liu Tingruo’s current thoughts on the screen.

A:

”Personality is too slick, not suitable for office work, at best could be fun to have around as a nanny at home.”

”No wait, that Jiang surname is already playing the nanny, there’s no need for it.”

”Hmph, Jiang Shu, that dog thing.”

Jiang Shu: ”???”

His body suddenly tensed up. Listening to that tone...

Had Liu Tingruo discovered him???

He stood still, staring at Liu Tingruo’s back.

But Liu Tingruo made no other move; her curse was not because she had discovered him while invisible.

What was it for, then?
