My Core is the Boss

Chapter 307.1: My Robot Is Very Smart

Inside the Junan Residential Complex, Zero-One was sitting upright on the sofa. In its hands was a tray with all kinds of batteries. The robot slowly placed one into its mouth.

Not far away, Xie Xinsu stared at Zero-One with her eyes wide open. This master and servant pair were way too abnormal! The master having a mental illness was one thing, but this servant did not look like any proper robot.

Holding a battery between its fingers, Zero-One turned to Xie Xinsu. "Are you curious why I eat batteries?"

Xie Xinsu sat stiffly on the sofa, her eyes widening. She wanted to report this. Zero-One definitely had issues! It wasn’t even pretending anymore! What kind of smart robot behaved this strangely?

Zero-One ignored her and said in a somewhat mature, elder-sister-like voice, "All the robots in movies eat batteries. I wanted to taste what they're actually like."

Xie Xinsu was now certain that Zero-One had a problem. If she wasn’t a cat, she would’ve exposed this black-hearted robot to its master!

Zero-One paid no heed to the cat and continued eating batteries. Suddenly, its eyes flickered, and its mouth curved into a smile. "How bold... Someone dares to hack into Master's network?"

Just now, it had detected someone attempting to intrude into Qi Yuan's phone. With its powerful learning capabilities, hacking was child’s play. Moreover, its thinking ability was even more exceptional, and its computational power far exceeded that of ordinary humans. The moment it discovered the other party's tampering, it immediately blocked it and traced the source.

A moment later, Zero-One's eyes flashed mockingly. "The audacity."

Then, it continued eating batteries while watching the movie.

Meanwhile, Xie Xinsu hid under the sofa and began meditating cross-legged. After all, whenever she cultivated on top of the sofa, Zero-One always leered at her. It made her feel extremely uncomfortable, as if she were some kind of monkey on display.

When I recover my strength and become a Core Formation cultivator, I'll definitely make this robot pay!

Xie Xinsu had ambition. She would repay the humiliation she was suffering now back a hundredfold in the future.

Time passed quickly, and the sound of the door opening rang out.

Zero-One calmly stood up, putting away the batteries and tray. Then, it walked to the door to welcome its master. Qi Yuan was still reeling from the joy of today’s events.

The robot thoughtfully served him tea. "Master, you're back!"

Then, it obediently reported on the day's work, "Today, I filmed 3 videos and replied to 17 private messages and 23 comments. Yesterday, the follower count increased by 13,000, with earnings totaling 702 dollars. Today, the cat knocked over a cup and shed 782 strands of fur all over the room. In the end, I cleaned everything and properly disposed of all the fur."

Xie Xinsu leaped out and meowed furiously.

This robot was simply ruthless! It was far too scheming! Why did it portray itself as the one doing all the work, while she was painted as the troublemaker? Hadn’t she worked hard to cooperate in the videos?! She was dying to say that this robot had spent the day eating batteries, watching TV, and idling around without doing anything.

Qi Yuan stared at Xie Xinsu with interest. "If it sheds fur like this, will it go bald?"

Zero-One smiled. "It will. Should we call it a hairless cat?"

Qi Yuan seemed to ponder. "A hairless cat?"

Immediately, Xie Xinsu felt a terrible premonition and dived back under the sofa. She absolutely did not want to become a hairless cat! That would be far too humiliating!

Seeing the cat hide again, Qi Yuan did not dwell on the topic. "How are Yaji and the others?"

Yaji and his younger sister had followed Qi Yuan to the Junan Residential Complex. The two would live in the "warehouse" gifted by Kuang Huan. Zero-One helped them settle in just today.

"The two have been settled. Temporary residence permits have already been processed." Zero-One added, playing the role of a qualified assistant, "Other identity documents are still being handled through legitimate channels."

"Mm." Qi Yuan nodded. "Don't let him wander off."

His hands were full with the martial arts tournament. Matters concerning Yaji could be dealt with later.

"Understood." Zero-One agreed. "Master, a hacker attempted to infiltrate your phone today. I’ve compiled the hacker's identity, background, and the person behind the scenes. Would you like me to send it to you?"

Qi Yuan's expression changed drastically. "Snooping on my phone? This person has no conscience at all. Absolutely depraved!"

Since he never used his phone for anything strange, he was perfectly clean. Still, to allow someone else to look at his phone? Inconceivable!

Even in his previous life, Qi Yuan had smashed his phone and thrown it into the old well at home. Someone secretly looking at his phone? Forcing their way into it? That felt worse to him than being violated.

He was genuinely enraged. "Fine, since they're so utterly shameless, send me all their information! If there's anything unspeakable on their phones, dig it all out and expose it online. Let them have a taste of social death too!"

Zero-One said, "Understood. I'll arrange it."

Then, it sent all the information over to Qi Yuan.

Qi Yuan snorted coldly at the files. "Don't think that just because there's a screen between us, I can't do anything to you! Zero-One, send a coffin to every one of their home addresses. Once I finish what I need to do next, I'll personally settle accounts with them!"

He had always clearly distinguished gratitude and grudges. No matter how chaotic the war between Wugui and Yuelang became, it had nothing to do with him. However, if someone committed illegal acts right under his nose, then he would transform into a righteous little whistleblower!
