92: Is this Jiuzhou's secret weapon? Xiaomo appears in the Imperial Plaza

Lu Xingye returned to the control panel.

This control panel was actually made up of Tony's computer and several display screens, giving it a very high-tech appearance.

On the display screens, Lu Xingye observed Xiao Mo's movements in real time.

He could also remotely control Xiao Mo's actions via a smart controller.

All of this seemed very complex, but it was actually similar to playing a video game.

You just needed to operate the smart controller and show off your skills.

Although Lu Xingye was a novice and it was his first time remotely controlling a robot, because he had taken NZT_48, his physical reaction capabilities, coordination, and emergency response were superhuman.

Therefore.

While his remote control of the robot was a bit clumsy and unpracticed at first, after a brief attempt, he began to feel quite at ease.

“Thrusters ignited, activating flight mode.”

“Running at full power…”

Two rocket-launcher-like objects extended from the soles of Xiao Mo's mechanical feet, and as Lu Xingye's command fell, blue flames jetted from their bottoms.

Whoosh!

A sound of air being torn apart rang out.

Xiao Mo, like a rocket, instantly burst through the window.

The robot flew in mid-air, and to avoid triggering Jiuzhou's anti-aircraft radar, Lu Xingye cautiously remotely controlled Xiao Mo to fly at a low altitude.

Meihai East Road was next to Dìdū Square.

Dìdū Square was one of the most bustling places in the Imperial Capital.

Because its supporting facilities were very complete, and it integrated dining and entertainment, Dìdū Square had millions of visitors every day.

This location, however, was a path Xiao Mo had to take.

Because if Xiao Mo flew over Dìdū Square, she would inevitably be seen by the people below.

“It seems there's no way to be low-key,” Lu Xingye murmured, no longer caring about disturbing the public. Since he had decided to save people, he would go all out to save them… It was now past eleven in the morning.

It was almost lunchtime, and Dìdū Square was even more crowded and lively.

Just then.

In an instant.

Rumble… Rumble… A violent roar echoed above Dìdū Square.

This sound was somewhat similar to a fighter jet, yet different. It was louder, clearer, and more deafening than a fighter jet.

“What's that sound?”

“Is it an air raid siren?”

“I haven't heard of any military activities recently.”

“A fighter jet? A passenger plane? No, planes usually fly at ten thousand meters; there's no way a plane's sound would be heard here.”

“Then what is that sound?”

People, both shocked and puzzled, looked up, trying to find the source of the sound… In the center of the crowd stood a little girl in a white dress, looking about seven or eight years old.

At this moment, she was holding a small red flower.

She looked up, and her eyes happened to see Xiao Mo flying in the sky. Her eyes widened, and she let out an innocent and naive cry.

“Mommy, look! There's an Ultraman in the sky.”

“Sweetheart, there's no Ultraman; don't talk nonsense,” her mother scolded, about to take the little girl's hand to go in for lunch, when she saw a scene she would never forget.

Someone was flying in mid-air.

That person soared through the sky like an airplane, with blue flames erupting from their legs.

Is this a human?

Since when could humans fly?

Or was it an Ultraman, as the little girl said?

The little girl's mother looked at Xiao Mo in mid-air, and for a moment, her body froze.

It was as if time had been paused.

“Oh my goodness.”

“This must be a robot.”

“Our Jiuzhou's robot has taken to the skies.”

Several tech enthusiasts nearby, with some discerning eyes, deduced that Xiao Mo was a robot from the booster flames under her feet.

“Our Jiuzhou actually has a robot.”

“What are you saying? You used the word 'actually.' Jiuzhou is a great nation; what's wrong with having robots?”

“You should be concerned about what's actually happening now. Why would Jiuzhou deploy its secret weapon, a robot?”

At this moment.

A little boy named Cao Cheng stood nearby.

He was the fan who had previously said in Xiao Mo's live stream that he would sell a kidney to buy a companion.

Because he had been watching the live stream, he recognized Xiao Mo at a glance, even though she was a bit blurry.

“It's Xiao Mo.”

“The robot Xiao Mo,” Cao Cheng exclaimed.

“Robot Xiao Mo? Little brother, from your tone, it sounds like you know a lot about this robot. Could you help us out with some information?” Passerby A turned his head and asked Cao Cheng.

“Xiao Mo is a robot companion produced by Suihuo Technology.”

robot companion?

Hearing these three words, the surrounding crowd instantly broke down.

It turned out that what appeared in the sky was not a combat robot, nor was there any military activity; it was a robot companion.

Pfft!

Everyone let out a knowing laugh.

Although Xiao Mo was a robot companion, why she appeared in the sky and what she was about to do also attracted people's curiosity.

Some people ascended to the top of Dìdū Tower, wanting to see where Xiao Mo flew.

Some people drove behind Xiao Mo, wanting to see what Xiao Mo was going to do.

And others immediately took out their phones and searched Baidu for 'robot companion,' clearly, they didn't know what a robot companion was before this.

Because Xiao Mo caused a huge commotion when she flew over Dìdū Square, she had now alarmed some people.

Reporters and self-media personalities collecting material near Dìdū Square, like sharks smelling blood, chased after Xiao Mo, their flashlights constantly flickering.

A robot companion flying over Dìdū was explosive news. As long as they could dig up the juicy details behind it, promotions and raises would no longer be difficult… Meanwhile, on the other side.

Meihai East Road.

At this moment, the road collapse was becoming increasingly severe, the central collapse expanding into a pit several meters wide, with three cars precisely stuck in the middle of the opening.

The car bodies were completely submerged.

The car tails were also basically invisible.

If it weren't for the exposed concrete slabs and steel bars from the road collapse holding them, these three cars would probably have been swept away by the underground current.

But~

Even so, these three cars were in precarious danger.

If nothing unexpected happened, in less than thirty seconds, the cars would be swept away by the underground river.

“Wuwu…”

“Save me.”

“Please, save me, I don't want to die yet.”

“I have elderly parents above and young children below. My family can't do without me. Please, are there any kind-hearted people to save me?”

“I'm pinned down and can't get out. I don't ask you to save me, only to save my child. He's only three years old this year…”

The eight trapped individuals beneath the ground cried out desperate pleas, their wails and cries of despair echoing as one.
