Master, I Need Charging - Chapter 31: Exceeding Maintenance

Chen Yuheng took Gu Anbao back to the RK building and headed straight to the maintenance department without even dropping by the office.

The technicians were already ready and prepared. Lu Lu was also present, her eyes turning red when she saw the filthy state Gu Anbao was in.

But Chen Yuheng’s expression toward Lu Lu was not pretty. This entire issue had mainly been due to Shen Xinran’s intention to cover up the truth and shirk responsibility. But Lu Lu was also partially responsible for it.

“Go get another set of clothes that she can wear,” Chen Yuheng instructed with a dark expression.

Lu Lu nodded her head repeatedly, ready to rush off before Chen Yuheng called for her again. “Wait…”

He thought for a moment. To avoid the awkward situation that happened today, he said, “Bring over two sets. Same for the undergarments. If there aren’t any that are suitable, get Cheryl to custom make them according to the previous measurements.”

Lu Lu left reverently and respectfully.

Following that, the technicians’ work officially began…

They had Gu Anbao lie on a metal surface similar to a space capsule. At the same time, she went through the scan, a diagram of the robot’s internal structure was displayed on the work table.

The microchip was okay, the circuit board was okay, the information processor was okay, and the artificial skeleton was okay as well…

When they began to scan the outermost layer of her skin, numerous red punctuations packed together began to emerge on the display screen. A warning from the computer persisted: “Discovered damage on the outer layer. Please fix it. At coordinates x57, y192. Discovered damage on the outer layer. Please fix it. At coordinates x103, y43. Discovered damage on the outer layer. Please fix it…”

Gu Anbao could feel goosebumps from the ear-piercing warning alert…

……

The technician quickly concluded, “Penetration, scratches, tears can be found at a total of 67 places. We need to fix the outermost layer immediately, and avoid any further damage the second time.”

Chen Yuheng furrowed his eyebrows as he stared at the pool of red on the display screen.

The main areas of damage were mainly concentrated on her arms and calves. No wonder her socks were almost torn to shreds…

“Let’s begin the maintenance.”

The moment Chen Yuheng said that one of the technicians picked up an electric saw…

“!!!”

It couldn’t be… what she thought, right?

The moment the electric saw was turned on, it made a buzzing sound—Gu Anbao, who was lying on the metal table, immediately quivered and covered her eyes with her hands!

She didn’t dare to look!

Chen Yuheng pulled her hands away. “Why are you covering? We have to cut apart your arms too.”

Gu Anbao kept her eyes tightly shut even when her hands were pulled away.

Raising the saw, the technician gesticulated against her legs. A little disturbed, he informed Chen Yuheng, “Director Chen, the robot keeps trembling.”

“…”

Was she shivering?… She didn’t want to either…

Hearing this, Chen Yuheng touched her neck and pressed the off button immediately.

… She was still trembling.

Chen Yuheng’s expression didn’t look too good… The technicians looked at each other in dismay, afraid to make a sound.

Gu Anbao probably understood that she was holding up everyone’s job. Embarrassed, she said softly, “Maybe, you can all help hold me down…”

What a fair and reasonable robot…

Chen Yuheng was silent for a moment before he said, “Let’s use Pok glue to fix her.”

Two of the technicians exchanged hesitant glances with one another. “Director Chen, if that’s the case… It will take quite a long time.”

Originally, their plan was to cut away the damaged skin individually and use a specialized device to carry out the high-temperature restoration. Afterward, they would encase it back onto the robot’s body and erase the traces of the seams, and that would be it.

But if they were to use Pok glue…

“It’s still better than cutting out pieces that look like dog chews which can’t be dealt with by seams,” Chen Yuheng replied coldly.

The technicians hurriedly began the preparations.

Gu Anbao secretly let out a sigh of relief. No more electric saw…

Seeing her body being gestured at by that tool was honestly frightening…

But what was Pok glue? Was it glue that could stick wounds together?

Gu Anbao waited expectantly as she saw them pushing in a circular metal barrel with wheels. Inside the barrel was a completely transparent substance. It didn’t seem any different from normal water.

Gu Anbao sat on the metal platform, letting them arrange her however they liked.

The technician held onto her two slim and fair thighs and placed them into the barrel.

The substance instantly began to change color. Gu Anbao looked on curiously, only to react violently in the next second! “Chen Yuheng! Chen Yuheng! Chen Yuheng!…” She yelled, terrified.

Her three calls were fast and anxious!

The technicians stared at her, dumbfounded. They couldn’t help but think: Did the robot short circuit?

Chen Yuheng was flustered by her yells. He hurried over instantly and asked, “What’s wrong now?”

Gu Anbao widened her eyes as she stared dumbly at her thighs dissolving in the Pok glue… She opened her mouth a few times, before finally finding her voice. “It’s… nothing…”

The skin on her thigh had disappeared completely, leaving her internal metallic bone structure behind.

When she had called his name earlier, it was because she was utterly shocked.

When her legs were done, the technicians also melted her two arms. They then pushed in a barrel of new creamy white gelatinous liquid and poured it into the mold. They had Gu Anbao stick all four of her limbs into the molds that were filled with the substance.

They needed approximately two hours for the liquid to dry. Chen Yuheng looked at his watch and decided to return to his office to complete some work.

Therefore, only Gu Anbao and two technicians were left in the workroom.

When the big boss left, the two workers instantly relaxed. They exercised their shoulders as they got together to chit-chat among themselves.

“… Fortunately, it’s just damage to the skin. When I received the news that there was a problem with the Devil King’s robot and we needed to prepare maintenance work, I was completely shocked… Who dares to fix a robot made by Mr. Ace? What if a problem occurred? What do we do?”

“It wouldn’t have led to such a problem. Checking out what the problem was is still manageable… Actually, I was shocked as well. But not because I was afraid to cause problems during the maintenance, haha. I was thinking that whoever dared to damage the Devil King’s robot was truly gutsy.”

“Heh heh, the compensation will definitely not be little. Even though it’s just the outer layer, but this is Mr. Ace’s work. With just Mr. Ace’s name pegged to it, it will definitely be worth a lot…”

“Oh, right, is Mr. Ace coming back soon?”

“Yes, I believe so. Initially, I heard he was returning this week. But you know how often he stands the Devil King up. Who knows if he will really return this week…”

The door creaked open.

The two people instantly ceased their chattering as their faces paled.

Hugging a pile of clothes, Lu Lu walked into the room. She stared at the two technicians strangely. “What are you two looking at? Don’t you recognize me?!”

They both let out a sigh of relief as they wiped off the cold sweat. “Lu Lu, you scared us to death… We thought the Devil King had returned…”

Lu Lu rolled her eyes at them.

Two hours later, Gu Anbao’s limbs were finally released. When the mold was opened, a pair of rough, fat, and white arms were completed!

Gu Anbao looked at her new arms, a little dumbfounded. This was perhaps a little too coarse… Moreover, the color now was very different from her original arms…

Just then, the technicians sent her to another metal tabletop.

The metal table had a fixed lock. As she lay on it, they began to lock her body down. “Is the carving machine ready?” One of them asked.

“It is ready,” the other answered.

A button was pressed, and Gu Anbao instantly saw two knife lasers waving around beside her body…

She closed her eyes desperately.

If only she had just gone with it earlier…

This was even more terrifying than the electric saw…
