Chapter 278 - Submission (Second Update)

Xia Chujian looked at the heavy rain outside the window, still pouring down like the Milky Way, and shook her head as she replied to the message.

[Xia Chujian]: We're not in a hurry. The rain is too heavy. Leader Meng can come tomorrow.

[Meng Guanghui]: Stop talking nonsense. I'm free right now, so I'll come over and take a look. What does the rain matter? Even if it's hailing or raining sulfuric acid outside, I still have to go on missions.

[Xia Chujian]: Raining sulfuric acid?

[Meng Guanghui]: Yes, on a certain small asteroid. Never mind that, what's the address?

Xia Chujian had no choice but to send the address of her Aunt's studio.

Meng Guanghui realized that the address wasn't too far from the Special Security Bureau's Mulan City Branch Station.

If it weren't for the torrential rain, he could have arrived in five minutes by Flying Vehicle.

As it was, it would only take eight minutes.

Meng Guanghui's Flying Vehicle had lightning protection and insulation coating, so it wouldn't be electrocuted.

His Flying Vehicle quickly ascended, plunged into the rain, and soon arrived at Xia Yuanfang's studio.

Before entering, Meng Guanghui checked the building's information.

The thirty-story Commercial Building now had only eight tenants left. Five of them had been closed for a long time, and two hadn't opened today because of the heavy rain.

Only Xia Yuanfang's studio was still operating normally.

He found it strange that even normal businesses would be closed today due to the heavy rain.

Was Xia Yuanfang's business so prosperous?

Did she still have customers in this downpour?

After he entered, he realized that Xia Yuanfang did indeed have a customer, lying in bed.

Xia Yuanfang saw him and quickly got up, saying softly, "Mr. Meng, this is my patient. Let's go outside to talk."

Meng Guanghui glanced at the person in the bed, covered with a thin blanket, her abdomen high and round, clearly a pregnant woman.

Considering that Xia Yuanfang was in the Reproductive Assistance business, he thought he understood.

He smiled and said, "Aunt Xia, you don't have to be so polite. I'm here to see Chujian. Too many things have happened these past few days. I should have visited long ago."

Xia Yuanfang said with emotion, "Mr. Meng is truly a responsible leader. However, too many unbelievable things have happened at Chujian's school recently. Fortunately, she doesn't have to go to school for the last two months. I can't stand being worried every day if she goes back to school."

Meng Guanghui pretended not to know anything and said in surprise, "Oh, their school is finally planning to investigate? It's good that she doesn't have to go now, but isn't Chujian taking the National Higher Education Entrance Examination in two months?"

"That's why I'll be with her every day, urging her to study. She also has online classes," Xia Yuanfang said. "Please make yourself at home. I won't disturb you."

Meng Guanghui nodded, turned, and left Xia Yuanfang's ward.

He even closed the door behind him.

Xia Chujian was waiting for him in the spacious living room.

Meng Guanghui came to the living room, sat opposite Xia Chujian, and suddenly darkened his face, saying, "A murder just happened here. Did you kill someone?"

Xia Chujian raised her eyebrows: "Oh? How did Leader Meng know? It's all been cleaned up..."

Even the walls outside had been repainted.

Meng Guanghui pointed to his nose: "I'm a high-level Gene Evolver. I can smell the lingering blood in the air. It's very strong. The murder happened here no more than two hours ago. The death toll is less than three."

Xia Chujian gave him a thumbs up: "Leader Meng is brilliant!"

Then, she retrieved the video she had just taken from her Quantum Optical Brain.

Although there were surveillance cameras here, those people had destroyed them as soon as they came in.

But fortunately, Xia Chujian hadn't turned off the camera when she was filming the luxury car downstairs, so she had recorded the fight with the two Humanoids and the killing of the gunman in the house.

Without her needing to explain much, Meng Guanghui knew the whole story.

After watching it, Meng Guanghui frowned and said, "These people came to hunt you down, or your aunt?"

Xia Chujian spread her hands: "Neither. They came to hunt down my aunt's patient."

Then she glanced in the direction of the room from earlier.

Meng Guanghui understood, "You're chasing after that pregnant woman?"

Xia Chujian nodded, "But their combat power is average, so I can handle them. Those two Humanoids are probably about the same as E-Rank early-stage Gene Evolvers. If several Humanoids with combat power equivalent to D-Rank or even C-Rank came, I might not be able to beat them."

Meng Guanghui said, "Then don't overthink it. Just shoot if you're in danger. As long as you can seize the initiative, you can kill D-Rank or early-stage C-Rank Gene Evolvers."

While speaking, Xia Chujian had already called the Big Black Dog over and said to Meng Guanghui, "Look, it has a Brain-Computer Interface here."

Meng Guanghui looked at the Big Black Dog and suddenly took out a pen, poking it in the Big Black Dog's neck.

The Big Black Dog immediately fainted.

Xia Chujian: "..."

"What are you doing?"

"To take the chip out of its head, of course, I have to anesthetize it first," Meng Guanghui said without looking up, while taking out a strangely shaped black dagger.

The blade of the knife was as thin as a cicada's wing, and the tip was finer than a hair.

Meng Guanghui put on a special pair of glasses, then used the knife to insert it into the place where the Big Black Dog's Brain-Computer Interface connected to its head. Then, mobilizing the power control and tactile perception of a high-level Gene Evolver, and with the cooperation of the special glasses, his eyes were like X-rays, able to see through the blade and the place where it entered the Big Black Dog's head.

He slowly turned his wrist, very meticulously and carefully, allowing the thin blade to cut off the nano-level wiring of the Brain-Computer Interface.

Half an hour later, the Brain-Computer Interface was completely removed by him.

Deep inside the Brain-Computer Interface was a black patch smaller than a pinhead.

Meng Guanghui said, "This is the chip. It's quite advanced. I have to take it back to crack and study it."

Xia Chujian applauded, "Leader Meng is too amazing! The dog raised by the Yu Family has a chip. They're not ordinary people, are they?"

Meng Guanghui said, "They're definitely not ordinary people, but even if they're not ordinary people, they're just pawns in someone else's hands."

The same idea as Huo Yushen.

Xia Chujian said, "I also think Yu Wangyou is a pity. She was so smart and had such good grades, but she died without knowing why."

Meng Guanghui stood up, sneered, and said, "She died knowing exactly why, and she took the people on the first floor with her as burial objects."

Xia Chujian murmured, "... Maybe she was just a sacrifice, and she couldn't decide to have the people on the first floor buried with her."

Meng Guanghui shook his head, said nothing more, and left.

He returned to the Special Security Bureau Branch Station and immediately took the chip for testing.

But as soon as he put it into the testing instrument, the black patch, smaller than a pinhead, immediately self-ignited and was destroyed.

Meng Guanghui: "..."

"So powerful," he said to himself, then sent the matter to Huo Yushen.

Huo Yushen smiled when he saw the message and replied to him.

[Huo Yushen]: The chip obtained from the Yu Family's dog self-ignited as soon as it was put into the testing instrument? - The other party is revealing more and more flaws.

Because there are very few chip manufacturers with this technology.

Huo Yushen realized that, unknowingly, because of Xia Chujian, they were getting closer and closer to the mastermind behind the scenes.

But after thinking about it, he sent a message to Xia Chujian.

[Huo Yushen]: How did the Yu Family's dog escape?

Xia Chujian saw the message and immediately replied.

[Xia Chujian]: Inspector Huo, I've been wondering about this for a long time, but I didn't dare to ask Leader Meng just now! You said, even my Small Dog Si Xi was knocked out by Teflon Alkane and was unconscious for a long time before waking up. How could this Big Black Dog be okay? That night, everyone else was unconscious, but it kept banging on the door!

Huo Yushen was almost laughed to death by Xia Chujian!

She only mentioned such an important clue now! Huo Yushen stopped messaging her and directly sent a video call request.

Xia Chujian pressed agree, and then saw Huo Yushen's frosty face appear on the virtual display screen.

Xia Chujian was inexplicably a little guilty and said with a smile, "Inspector Huo, are you angry?"

Huo Yushen was indeed angry, but Xia Chujian pointed it out directly, so he couldn't get angry. He just snorted and said, "Tell me about the Big Black Dog from beginning to end. If there are any more omissions, you can withdraw from the Special Security Bureau."

Xia Chujian thought, He's really angry this time...

She quickly composed herself, saying earnestly, "Inspector Huo, it's not that I didn't want to tell you, but so many things happened that I genuinely forgot. Besides, after that day, Big Black Dog disappeared without a trace. If I hadn't discovered it hanging around my Aunt's studio as a stray today, and it hadn't saved my Aunt's life, I might have been suspicious, but I wouldn't have paid much attention."

Then, before Huo Yushen could erupt again, she hurriedly recounted everything about Big Black Dog from beginning to end.

She even mentioned the first time they met, when she kicked the swaggering Big Black Dog against the elevator wall, leaving it hanging there.

Huo Yushen secretly breathed a sigh of relief after hearing her out.

Only then did he say coldly, "It's fortunate you encountered it. The first reason it wasn't completely incapacitated by the Teflon Alkane is that its body must have been enhanced. Military and police dogs aren't easily affected by Teflon Alkane."

"Second, it has a Brain-Computer Interface. The chip in its brain periodically sends electrical impulses to its brain, which can keep it somewhat alert."

"Third, you rescued it in time. Any longer, and it would have passed out."

Moreover, if Xia Chujian hadn't taught it how to open the Yu Family's door, this Big Black Dog, even if it hadn't fainted, would have died in the final explosion.

Xia Chujian patted her chest, saying with lingering fear, "That's great! So, it saved my Aunt this time to repay me for saving its life, right?"

Huo Yushen was too lazy to answer such hypothetical questions.

He simply said, "This dog should have received special training. Now that the chip in its brain is gone, it's free. You must make it truly submit to you before you can confidently let it guard your home."

Xia Chujian, feeling confident in her abilities, quickly said, "Inspector Huo, don't worry. If it doesn't submit, I'll beat it into submission."

Inspector Huo had originally intended to send Xia Chujian some internal military documents on training military dogs.

Hearing her say that, he didn't bother interfering, saying blandly, "Okay, whatever."

Then he decisively ended the call.

At this moment, Xia Chujian found Big Black Dog more pleasing to the eye than ever.

The adults, children, Small Dog, Humanoids, and robots in her family weren't exactly known for their combat prowess.

Aunt Chen, despite having the bloodline of the Divine Beast Fei Fei, was often beaten by her scumbag husband, so Xia Chujian didn't expect her to have any real fighting ability.

This Big Black Dog was different. It was probably the strongest fighter in the Xia Family besides her! It wasn't even afraid of being pointed at with a gun. It was a good dog!
