Chapter 1: Turning into a robot
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Gu Anbao stared at her body in a daze.
The fair bosom on her chest before her was silently telling her:
She… wasn’t wearing any clothes!
She was absolutely naked!
“Ah!”
She instantly realized from the soft gasp she let out that something was wrong with her voice!
This was not her voice!
How did this happen?!
Shouldn’t she be lying on the operating table right now?! What was this place? And this, this, this body! ——Why was her bosom so big?!
No, no, no, no! This wasn’t the main issue. The main issue was that this wasn’t her body!
Gu Anbao was unable to think any further!
She crouched down where she stood and spent a long time calming her emotions. Then, she began to feel out and probe this body of hers.
The tactile sensation was very familiar to normal skin texture, but her body was clearly stiff. The surface of the synthetic skin was so clean that there wasn’t even a single hair on it. Every joint was connected by spherical joints, and a rectangular barcode and factory serial numbers were printed on her calf…
Gu Anbao was dumbfounded.
She didn’t understand. A moment before, she had been lying on the operating table, waiting for her heart transplant operation to begin. She had even felt herself gradually losing consciousness due to the anesthetic. How was it that she… had become like this after waking up?!
She inspected her surroundings, hoping to find some clues. But as she took a step forward, she felt obvious traction around her neck——She was tugged back.
She reached out and touched her neck, feeling a semicircle-shaped object. She pulled on it gently… Eh eh eh?! Had she pulled it out?
She stared blankly at the plug in her hand. Gu Anbao was still unable to regain her senses after a long time as if her brain had shut down.
Was she…. being recharged?
The spherical joints, the strange barcode, the different voice, and finally… The charging plug in her hand.
So, she… was now a robot?!
Gu Anbao was in a state of panic. She looked around frantically as she tried to find an object in the white room that she could use as a mirror.
The room was around 200 square meters, and it was clean and tidy. It seemed like a laboratory, with many parts meant for building robots placed on the work table. There was also a row of glass cabinets filled with prototypes of the latest models of robots.
Gu Anbao walked to the front of the glass cabinets and stared at her appearance through the reflection of the glass.
Her maiden face was delicate and pretty, and her eyebrows were curved slightly. Even though she was standing there expressionlessly, it seemed as if a small smile was plastered on her face, making her amiable. Her dark hair was tied into a bun at the back of her head. Apart from that, there were no other decorations.
As for her body… Gu Anbao was too embarrassed to take another look.
Even though this was a robotic body, wasn’t this… wasn’t she manufactured way too similar to a real human!
Robots should have the appearance of a robot!
Like those robots in the glass cabinet. They had circular heads, cylindrical bodies, with wheels as legs and liquid crystal display screens for their heads.
But, her? Not only did she have a body and a face that were extremely similar to a human, she even had fox ears and a tail now?!
Gu Anbao was on tenterhooks. She wasn’t a sex robot, right?… It couldn’t be? It couldn’t be?….
What should she do?!
All of a sudden, voices and footsteps were heard outside the door.
Was someone here?
Gu Anbao’s reflexes told her to hide, but the room could be covered in a glance. There was no place to hide at all. At a loss, she came to a sudden realization—— She was now a robot… she didn’t need to hide…
If she hid, wouldn’t that make her suspicious?
While her head was still filled with messy thoughts, the door was opened. In walked two young ladies, one after the other.
Even though her rationality told her that she didn’t need to hide, the moment the door was opened, Gu Anbao still instinctively withdrew under the work table…
She wasn’t wearing a single piece of clothing, it was… utterly embarrassing!
The work table was supported by four thin table legs. It wasn’t able to hide anyone.
Gu Anbao had never been in such a predicament before in her entire life… to be crouching under the table, stark naked…
The high heels against the floor let out sharp, crisp noises as they walked closer. The ladies swept their eyes across the room, noticing Gu Anbao cowering under the table.
“Eh?” One of the ladies who was wearing a pair of black-framed spectacles spoke, “Why is it activated?”
The other person looked at Gu Anbao in high spirits. “Wow… sister Cheryl, she is so adorable! Look at her ears and tail!”
The lady who was called Cheryl revealed a proud expression on her face. “Mr. Ace’s works have always been more than outstanding. Even though this is just a trial machine, every function has reached its pinnacle. You could say that she is currently the most perfect companion robot on the market,” she replied.
“This is great. The director’s privately customized robot… I really want one too, but I don’t have enough money…”
Cheryl cast a sidelong glance at her before responding, “Of course we can’t afford a custom-made robot. But if you stop buying those hideous bags and make-up products, you wouldn’t have a problem affording a normal robot model with two years’ worth of salary.”
The young girl said vexedly, “But I can’t control myself… Moreover, there are new bags released every season…”
“Alright, quickly help me put on her clothes. Director Chen is still waiting.”
Cheryl reached out and pulled Gu Anbao out from under the table.
Knowing that these two people were going to put on clothes for her, Gu Anbao didn’t show any signs of resistance. She stood there foolishly while they busied themselves over her.
She raised her hand when they made her and raised her leg when she was asked to. Perhaps it was because she was too nervous which made her limbs extremely rigid, thus making her seem even more like a robot…
“… I have no idea who Director Chen customized this robot for. Doesn’t seem like his style…” Cheryl fastened the buttons of Gu Anbao’s top and was about to put on her skirt when she furrowed her eyebrows. “Lu Lu, go find a pair of scissors.”
“Ah?” Lu Lu was putting on Gu Anbao’s shoes for her as she raised her head perplexedly and asked, “What do you need the scissors for?”
Cheryl pushed up her spectacles and said grudgingly, “The last time I came to take her measurements, she didn’t have a tail… I didn’t expect that Mr. Ace would add a tail all of a sudden… So the skirt needs a hole…”
If they were to stuff a furry artificial foxtail into the skirt, it would be ugly… Also, it would be unsightly.
“Oh… that’s true,” Lu Lu nodded her head and turned around to find the tool at the workstation.
Gu Anbao opened her mouth, unsure of what to say…
They… They want to cut… cut a hole open in her skirt?!
Did she hear them correctly??
Gu Anbao stood there stiffly, not moving an inch.
Lu Lu held the scissors and smiled mischievously at Gu Anbao. “I promise you that I won’t cut your little cute butt! Don’t worry!”
“!!!”
