Luo Chao saw Doraemon.

To be precise, it should be a Doraemon-shaped robot.

It had a chubby body, a round head, and a blue exterior.

The difference was that this Doraemon-shaped robot had a submachine gun in each "cat paw."

Moreover, the robot's eyes were red.

From the red light emitted by its eyes, it was clear that this robot was the one that ambushed Luo Chao on the stairs earlier.

At this moment, the robot had only one eye lit up, while the other was obviously shattered by the Silver Needle Luo Chao had shot.

Luo Chao thought to himself, "No wonder I didn't feel any killing intent from beginning to end, it turns out the intruder in the police station is a robot!"

However, regardless of Luo Chao's surprise, the Doraemon-shaped robot continued reciting the countdown to self-destruction in a cold voice, "4, 3, 2..."

Time was running out, and in one second the robot would self-destruct.

After all, it must be known, this was the eighth floor, and Luo Chao was cornered!

Boom——

The countdown reached zero, and the robot exploded on schedule.

Towering flames shot up, engulfing the eighth floor of the police station in an ocean of fire.

At this moment, dozens of police cars and special police transport vehicles, along with some fire trucks and ambulances, had gathered below the police station.

This was the reinforcements called by Fang Zhiruo.

The police were organizing their equipment at the entrance, just about to rush into the station, when they heard the loud explosion.

Everyone quickly looked up and saw flames several meters high burst out from the windows of the eighth floor!

"Luo Chao!" Fang Zhiruo exclaimed from the crowd.

"Why are you still standing there? Hurry upstairs and rescue them!" Fang Zhiruo shouted at everyone.

"Yes!" The policemen did not dare to delay and rushed into the police station building one by one.

"Luo Chao, you better be alright!" Fang Zhiruo silently prayed.

Hiss hiss hiss——

Suddenly, the radio in Fang Zhiruo's police car buzzed.

Fang Zhiruo quickly ran back to her police car, knowing it was the signal from Luo Chao's radio!

"Hello! Luo Chao, are you there? Are you okay?" Fang Zhiruo called out on the radio in her police car.

"Cough cough cough." Luo Chao's coughing came through the radio, "I'm fine, just got a few scratches."

"Thank goodness... It's good you're okay." Fang Zhiruo shed tears of relief upon hearing Luo Chao was alright.

"Oh dear, Officer Fang, you weren't crying, were you?" Luo Chao, on the other end of the radio, asked surprised at Fang Zhiruo's sobbing.

"No!" Fang Zhiruo quickly wiped her tears and stopped herself from crying.

"Hehe, Officer Fang, you're so worried about me, you don't have a crush on me or anything, do you?"

"You're crazy, I was just worried you'd get blown to bits and I'd have a hard time explaining to superiors. I still want that promotion!"

"If you like someone, just admit it! After all, an outstanding man like me is a rarity; you won't find a second one like me!"

"Shut up!" Fang Zhiruo yelled angrily into the radio.

"Ooh ooh ooh! Someone's embarrassed!" Luo Chao teased back.

"Who's embarrassed?"

"If you're not embarrassed, why is your face red?"

Red-faced?

Fang Zhiruo touched her own pretty face, indeed it was a bit warm, but she defiantly replied, "Who is blushing? Which eye of yours saw me blush?"

Bang!

Suddenly, someone tapped Fang Zhiruo's shoulder.

"Of course it was this one!" Luo Chao's voice eerily sounded from behind her.

Fang Zhiruo quickly turned around to see Luo Chao standing there in tattered, burned clothing, with a disheveled mess of hair on his head and his face smeared with ash.

"Pfft hahaha!" Seeing Luo Chao's appearance, Fang Zhiruo burst into laughter, "Hahaha, your look is just too funny."

"Hehe." Luo Chao let out an awkward laugh.

Just before the explosion, Luo Chao had nowhere to run, but had the quick wit to hide in a morgue storage locker, avoiding most of the blast and flames.

"Speaking of which, what exactly happened upstairs? Why did it explode? And did you catch the criminal?" After laughing enough, Fang Zhiruo finally regained her serious demeanor and asked earnestly.

"I initially determine there are at least two criminals, one human and another... is this guy here." Luo Chao raised his hand, holding a mechanical head of Doraemon.

"What's this thing?" Fang Zhiruo bent down and poked at the mechanical head with her finger.

"It's likely a robot controlled by artificial intelligence," Luo Chao answered. "In my opinion, the criminal probably used this heavily armed robot to break into the police station, then took Wu Yunfei's body head, and intentionally left the robot to self-destruct and destroy the evidence."

"Artificial intelligence? Robots? So sci-fi..." Fang Zhiruo was dumbfounded.

...

The two returned to the hospital, and after working until the middle of the night, Fang Zhiruo went straight to bed, while Luo Chao took the Doraemon head back to his room.

Luo Chao took apart the mechanical head, and a fragment of a fingernail-sized chip immediately caught his attention.

The explosion had burned most of the robot's intelligent chip, leaving only this fragment.

"I don't have any tools now, to analyze such high-tech chips, at least an entire technology lab's equipment is needed, and the antidote production also requires a complete biological lab's setup!" Luo Chao thought to himself.

Due to the lack of equipment, Luo Chao could only look at the small chip and the few bottles of antidote in frustration.

Luo Chao checked his bank balance, totaling 1.85 billion Huaxia Coin, and decided to go buy the latest equipment soon.

Then Luo Chao closed his eyes and leaned back on the bed to rest for a while.

"Ah~~"

Suddenly, from the neighboring room, from Lin Yun's hospital room, came a groan filled with pain.

Luo Chao was immediately awakened by the sound and quickly ran to the door of Lin Yun's room.

Knock knock knock!

Luo Chao knocked on the door, "Honey, are you okay?"

After a while, Lin Yun's weak voice finally murmured, "I'm... fine."

"Fine? You don't seem fine at all!" Luo Chao raised an eyebrow, ignoring Lin Yun's protests and directly pushed the door open.

Luo Chao turned on the light and saw Lin Yun lying on the hospital bed, wearing a purple silk nightgown, looking very tempting, but her face was exceedingly pale, and her forehead was covered in sweat, clearly enduring great pain.

"Who let you in? Get out!" Lin Yun's eyes widened as she saw Luo Chao barging in, immediately scolding him.

However, Luo Chao completely ignored Lin Yun's rebuke, swiftly moved to the bedside, and grabbed Lin Yun's wrist.

Lin Yun tried to pull her wrist away but, looking at Luo Chao's serious expression, unexpectedly felt a sense of security rising inside her, causing her to close her lips.

Luo Chao merely felt Lin Yun's pulse for a moment before he understood the reason, a mischievous smile appearing on his face.
