Personal Service Sprite

Squish! But Xiao Yu had thought too much. The moment he closed his eyes, Ye Siyu snatched the switchblade from his hand. Before he could react, pain shot through his hand. He opened his eyes and saw the switchblade embedded in the back of it.

"Ah!" A cry of pain burst from his mouth.

"Xiao Yu, what happened!?"

"He stabbed me with a knife!"

"You damn brat!"

The thugs nearby rushed over when they heard their companion cry out. When they saw the switchblade sticking out of Xiao Yu's hand, anger appeared on all their faces. They stepped forward, ready to teach Ye Siyu a lesson.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

But they had underestimated Ye Siyu, and they were all drunk on top of that. Not one of them could last a single exchange against him. In less than a minute, they were all sprawled on the ground.

"Is this 110? Someone's trying to rob me. I'm at Dongjiang University..." After knocking the thugs to the ground, Ye Siyu calmly picked up the landline and called the police.

This was not Plane Space, but his own world. Until he was powerful enough to disregard the state, he still had to act within the law.

The police arrived soon afterward, and they were all familiar faces—the same officers he had encountered before his rebirth.

"Excuse me, were you the one who called to report a robbery?" the middle-aged officer in charge asked when he saw Ye Siyu at the convenience store entrance.

"Yes. Those guys tried to rob me," Ye Siyu said with a nod, then turned and pointed at the thugs inside the store.

The middle-aged officer immediately looked where Ye Siyu was pointing. His expression changed when he saw the thugs howling on the floor.

As a police officer in the area, he knew these thugs who loafed around all day. He had not expected someone to have taken them all down today.

"Arrest them." Though he did not know what had happened, the middle-aged officer told the officers behind him to arrest the thugs.

Before long, after taking some basic statements, the police took the thugs away from the convenience store. It looked like they would not be getting out without spending eight or ten days in custody, which would do a very good job of preventing his younger brother from getting hurt again tomorrow.

After the police escorted the thugs away, Ye Siyu began tidying up the things they had scattered on the floor. At the same time, he continued thinking about his earlier problem: finding information on Plane Space's chosen ones on Earth.

Suddenly, a remarkable idea popped into his head.

"Red Queen, can you create an AI app for a phone to help me collect all useful information?" Ye Siyu asked.

With his current resources and abilities, finding information on the chosen ones who had returned to Earth was extremely difficult. The internet was his only avenue; he had no other channels. In that case, why didn't he create one himself?

And the best source of intelligence in modern society was the mobile phone. Even a major power like America monitored phones at all times, which showed that phones were undoubtedly the best channel for gathering intelligence.

"Yes. All that is needed is a deceptive subroutine, but it requires a large server to store the information," Red Queen replied.

"Good. Design a subroutine as soon as you can, then buy servers for me. Remember, none of it can be traced back to me," Ye Siyu ordered after receiving Red Queen's affirmative answer.

"Okay," Red Queen replied to Ye Siyu's order. Then she fell silent and went to carry it out.

As for where Red Queen would get the money to buy the servers, Ye Siyu did not care.

He was not someone who followed the rules. He would never be like certain characters in novels who, even after obtaining an AI program on Red Queen's level, obediently made money through legitimate channels. That was simply making trouble for themselves. With Red Queen, he did not need to lift a finger to get his hands on funds available online. Why would he waste time doing this and that for a little money?

More than half an hour passed before Red Queen's voice rang out.

"Master, the initial test version of the AI app you asked me to write is ready. Would you like to examine it?"

"Yes. Transfer it to my phone and let me have a look." Ye Siyu's eyes lit up at Red Queen's words. He took out the Meizu phone he had passed off as a bomb.

Using the phone's transfer function, Red Queen sent an installation package to it. Ye Siyu soon finished installing it. The screen went black, and ripples appeared, as though a drop of water had fallen into a pool. Then an egg emitting a fluorescent glow appeared on the screen.

"Welcome to Personal Service Sprite. Service will now begin. Please tap the Egg of Origin," a metallic voice said from the phone.

Ye Siyu gently tapped the egg on the screen.

With a crack, the egg instantly shattered into a spray of fluorescent light. A sprite that looked like cotton candy, with two big, dark eyes, appeared on the screen.

"Please give me a name." After the cotton candy sprite hatched, the metallic voice became soft and gentle, like a little girl's.

"Cotton Candy." Ye Siyu thought for a moment, then named Cotton Candy.

"Cotton Candy is now at your service, Master!" Cotton Candy said solemnly. A police cap appeared on Cotton Candy's head, making the sprite seem very human.

"Red Queen, what functions does Cotton Candy have? And can its appearance be changed?" Ye Siyu asked, looking at Cotton Candy on the screen. Although Cotton Candy acted very human, its value would be greatly reduced if it was only there to be looked at.

"As you requested, Master, Cotton Candy becomes the phone's control program the moment installation is complete. You can use it directly for all the phone's basic functions, such as listening to music, typing, and chatting. All these functions can also be operated by voice command. As for its appearance, I did not include the option to change it because this is an initial test version. That function can be added in the next version," Red Queen replied.

Satisfied with Red Queen's explanation, Ye Siyu nodded and prepared to test Cotton Candy's functions.
