"Ever since I saw him going to the hotel next door with another woman when we went out, I dumped that son of a bitch!"

"I dumped him! And I punched him hard!"

Although the waitress spoke with a smug tone, her eyes darted around when she talked about beating up her scumbag ex-boyfriend, clearly indicating that the breakup wasn't as carefree and exhilarating as she made it out to be.

She was, after all, just an ordinary girl who came to the big city to make a living, working a low-level job as a waitress; how could she possibly want to cause that kind of trouble?

The waitress noticed Saeko Busujima's face and couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy. She smiled, winked, and gave Saeko Busujima a cheerful hug.

"At least I still have you, Jin Zhen, and Bosley who love me, don't I?"

Jin Zhen is her roommate, while Bosley is her pet green lizard.

"Sarah, darling, we still have to go to work..."

"If you want to go on a date with your new girlfriends, please wait until your break time..."

A waitress with long, dark brown hair, carrying a tray, burst into the cubicle, interrupting someone's slack-off.

"OK, OK, I'm planning to invite Saeko over for drinks after work. Would you mind if we observed and learned something from your date with Wendy?"

When Sarah, a waitress, saw her roommate Jin Zhen coming to confront her, she had no choice but to pick up the tray from her hands and go to serve the customers.

However, Sarah's last question as she turned back before leaving was somewhat sarcastic.

Jin Zhen gave her best friend the middle finger, changing the location of her planned "fight" with her boyfriend to a hotel that night.

"It's just a breakup, don't worry, she's not a child..."

The waiter with long, dark brown hair picked up the half-smoked cigarette his friend had left behind, took a puff, and, speaking from experience, offered Saeko Busujima a gentle, comforting smile.

"By the way, you mentioned before that some of the thugs you taught a lesson might retaliate against Sarah, so you told me to keep an eye out for unfamiliar faces around me."

"Nothing suspicious, but it seems a new tenant has moved into the previously vacant house next door..."

Saeko Busujima looked startled and quickly pressed for an answer.

"Please be sure to describe its physical characteristics clearly. You've seen that threatening letter, so we can't overlook any potential danger."

Jin Zhen nodded slightly, carefully recalling the situation, and the vigilance that Saeko Busujima had aroused in him subsided once again.

"That new girl stays indoors all day and we don't know what she's doing. We only saw her briefly once when she moved in."

"Yes, it's a girl. She has white hair, is wearing a black, lace-trimmed gothic outfit, and has a blindfold over her face. But you can tell she's very beautiful, as delicate as a Barbie doll..."

"If she weren't so cold and aloof, giving off a 'keep away' vibe, I would have loved to hug her and kiss her..."

"The only strange thing was that her luggage was so heavy that she broke the wooden stairs while going upstairs..."

Upon hearing this, Saeko Busujima's eyes flashed with a mixture of doubt and seriousness; she seemed to sense something unusual in them.

P. S.: The money I promised you has arrived. Guess what it is.

Chapter 231 Daily Book Recommendation: <The Bizarre Journey of a Reincarnated Black Dragon>

Gu Yue Wuji quality. If you like Monster Hunter, you can check it out to see if it suits your taste.

My name is Black Dragon, I am 21 years old, I live in the Ancient Forest area of Beluna Village, and I am unmarried.

I work for the Elder Dragon Protection Association, and I have to hunt eight hunters every day before I can go home.

I do not reproduce, and my kisses are merely fleeting.

Every day, they have to reject a different female dragon; every week, they have to reject hundreds.

Before going to bed, I always turn off the spring-like abilities of the Rage Virus to the minimum, get into bed, and fall into a deep sleep immediately. I sleep soundly until dawn, never wasting any extra energy on those mother dragons.

The female dragons all say I'm hopeless.

Current World: Monster Hunter

Chapter 218, Section 232: This idiot!

As evening fell and the restaurant closed, Jin Zhen handed over the final task of locking the door to Sarah, then, feeling a surge of romantic longing, went to a hotel with her boyfriend.

Sarah couldn't help but raise her middle finger at the retreating figures of the two despicable people.

Meanwhile, after she finished dealing with the remaining tasks, Saeko Busujima was already waiting for her at the door, holding Kevin's hand.

"You two are a perfect match, your boyfriend?"

Sarah winked at Saeko Busujima, her smile somewhat mocking.

Saeko Busujima withdrew her right hand somewhat shyly, remaining speechless for a moment, unsure how to respond.

"I'm the one pursuing my senior, but I'm still in the reserve stage, so I need to work extra hard to get into her life as much as possible."

Kevin smiled and gripped Saeko Busujima's right hand tightly. He was more professional and proactive in his acting, and his lies didn't seem fake; they just came out naturally.

For a moment, under this unscripted and spontaneous performance, Saeko Busujima instinctively glanced at Kevin's profile, then turned her head away as if nothing had happened, but her ears were already flushed.

"With your smooth talk, you must have charmed a lot of girls, so Saeko, you'd better keep an eye on him!"

Sarah patted Saeko Busujima on the shoulder, offering heartfelt advice to her recently acquainted best friend.

"Kevin Lee..."

"Sarah Connor..."

Upon their first meeting, the two men, introduced by Saeko Busujima, shook hands amicably.

The three of them chatted and laughed as they headed toward the house Sarah had rented. Along the way, the curly-haired woman not only sold drinks but also brought some lettuce and mealworms for her pet lizard.

After entering the room, Sarah left Kevin and Saeko Busujima in the living room to watch TV while she went into the kitchen to prepare some snacks to go with drinks.

On a whim, the commander picked up the green lizard from the cabinet and sat on the sofa, casually playing with the little creature.

However, after watching TV for a short time, the LCD screen started displaying static, and even pressing the remote control resulted in the same issue with all channel selections.

"It'll be fine in a while. This is the third time this month. According to the official explanation, it should be a strong Electromagnetic Interference originating from a special weather phenomenon..."

Saeko Busujima helped bring out the fruit platter and explained to Kevin with some helplessness.

Just then, the sound of shattering glass came from the kitchen. Kevin immediately rushed forward and pulled Sarah, who was standing at the window staring blankly, behind him.

"It's nothing, probably just some naughty kid playing a prank..."

Sarah seemed dazed, and it took her a long time to come to her senses and explain. Kevin carefully examined the completely shattered window, frowned slightly, and said nothing more.

Based on the traces at the scene and the distribution of glass shards near the windowsill, it is clear that the conflagration originated from the kitchen.

What exactly did this woman see?

"Can I let go now?"

Just as Kevin was lost in thought, Sarah pointed to his right wrist, which was being held tightly by someone, and whispered a hint.

The commander intended to say something to cover it up, but unexpectedly, his fingers, which had been gliding across Sarah's wrist, tightened their grip again.

"I know a bit about massage and manipulation. How about I help you relax?"

Before Sarah could react, Kevin smiled and tapped his fingertip against Sarah's temple.

Just as the two were about to make contact, a long, narrow samurai sword with a tassel was suddenly swung out from the broken window, aimed directly at Kevin.

Immediately, a transparent figure leaped through the window, and with a tearing sound, swept across the air towards Saeko Busujima, who was approaching from the side.

The commander stopped moving, stamped his foot, and retreated, narrowly avoiding the long sword. The sharp object had sunk directly into the wall, leaving only its tail trembling.

Saeko Busujima immediately raised both hands horizontally, lowered her waist to dissipate the force, and retreated dozens of steps before barely managing to block this ferocious attack.

Suddenly, a violent blast of air swept through the entire kitchen, and Sarah, standing in the center, seemed somewhat bewildered, frozen in place.

The pale blue Electromagnetic Shield that emerged from the transparent figure enveloped Sarah, deflecting all the debris flying nearby.

Seemingly due to the energy consumption of the Electromagnetic Shield, the Optical Camouflage covering the transparent figure was forcibly dispelled amidst a distortion.

"Warning! According to the <YoRHa Unit Civilization Preservation Act>, you have threatened the life of Sarah Connor, the Mother of New Humans!"

"Three Laws of Robotics of Rejection! Furnace operating at full power!"

"Execution Song... unfold!"

With a cold, low murmur, the silver-haired girl, dressed in a black lace high-slit dress and over-the-knee boots, solemnly drew two small, silver-white swords.

Although her face, as delicate as a Barbie doll's, was covered by a black blindfold, it exuded an invisible killing intent.

"For the glory of mankind..."

Immediately, the uninvited guest pounded his chest with his left hand, as if in prayer, or perhaps offering a eulogy for the sacrifice of Kevin and Saeko Busujima.

Asimov's three laws are as follows:

1. Robots must not injure humans or, through inaction, allow humans to come to harm.

Second, provided that the First Law is not violated, robots must absolutely obey any commands given to them by humans.

Third, without violating the first and second laws, a robot must do everything in its power to protect itself.

Only when these three conditions are combined can a robot be recognized as serving humanity, protecting itself, and adhering to the core concept.

If these fundamental definitions are rejected, then human creations could very well threaten the lives of these frail creators!

2B! You must be kidding me!

Kevin looked extremely surprised, and even forgot to say the explanation he had prepared.

Isn't Sarah Connor the famous woman who gave birth to John Connor, the leader of the resistance, in the five Terminator films?

The 2B lady in front of us is YoRHa, a member of the automated infantry unit "YoRHa No.2 Type B" from NieR: Automata.

Although both stories involve the extinction of humanity and the occupation of Earth by Machine Lifeforms forms, their timelines are vastly different.

Therefore, Kevin still inexplicably wants to ask: Did you guys wander onto the wrong set?

Before Kevin could recover from his shock, a dazzling flash of light appeared before his eyes. The powerful thrust from the furnace core brought unparalleled destructive force and speed.

In a split second, Kevin's pupils constricted, and the surrounding air twisted wildly, barely managing to stop the blade.

Immediately, the commander pulled Saeko Busujima up, flapped his wings and retreated, and in the instant 2B's sword flashed, he gathered his energy and roared.

"Sarah Connor... something's wrong!"

"Some force within her shattered the glass, even under conditions of strong Electromagnetic Interference!"

"The pulse is also abnormal!"

With a hiss, the blade deflected a few inches, cleaving open the door behind Kevin and 2B. 2B, her face covered by a black mask, immediately turned her gaze to Sarah Connor, who was still standing in the same spot.

At this moment, the "Mother of New Humans" slowly raised her hand, and the tiny illusory particles on her body twisted and shattered, revealing a face that astonished both sides.

P. S.: A 300-pound 2B lady has been delivered. Who can lift her up? Hmph.

Chapter 219, Section 233: YoRHa Unit

"Element detection, virtual personality removal, data reconstruction, awakening of the primary personality!"

As the illusion particles dissipated, the mysterious figure impersonating Sarah Connor finally revealed her true form with a soft murmur.

His white hair, the standard black combat uniform, and his face with peeling skin coating were all recorded in 2B's database.

"The cosplay game is over. YoRHa Unit Prototype Scanner Model 21 reporting for duty!"

"Welcome to the world of the Creator, newbie... State your number and unit status..."

This short-haired, capable woman, with the air of a senior, looked around at 2B, whose thoughts were somewhat disorganized.

"YoRHa No.2, belonging to YoRHa Squad 2, completed the landing 7 days ago, and is currently lying in wait next to Sarah Connor, the Mother of New Humans!"

This seemingly aloof but actually somewhat earnest and adorably naive young lady immediately pounded her chest with her left hand, revealing her true self in the manner of reporting to her superior.

"Oh, so it seems you're the only one left in the second squad?"
