Night fell, and the hot spring area on the horizon was brightly lit.
The flying car glided silently through the sky. Raindrops continuously struck the window glass, then were blown into streaks by the wind, making the glass appear as if it had been sliced a thousand times.
Jiang Ye sat leisurely in the car, peeking at his phone.
High Priest of Har Star: "Breaking good news! Breaking good news! Li Nannan is back!"
Cold An Star Commander: "Hooray! Hooray!"
Ice Green Planet Governor: "Excited! Uplifting! In tears!"
Jiang Ye Star Commander: "Great, awesome!"
Li Nannan: "Don't get too excited yet. The front lines are tense. I have to go back to the front lines in a couple of days. I might live through the first day of the month but not the fifteenth. Small units of Mil people have already infiltrated..."
"You little brat who hasn't even grown hair on his ass, I'll break your disinfectant nozzle!"
"Come on! It's life or death! Let's see how much strength this old man has left!"
"I'll beat you to death! Pretty boy!"
With a咔咔咔 sound, it was clear that two sweeping robots were colliding head-on, their plastic shells cracking.
Jiang Ye was speechless. Why were the two sweeping robots fighting over a woman?
Did furniture these days have to be so intelligent?
Putting down his chopsticks, Jiang Ye walked downstairs in his slippers.
The 咔咔咔 sound stopped abruptly. The two sweeping robots acted as if nothing had happened, slowly sucking up the water stains by the door.
Jiang Ye shrugged, then turned back to the dining room to eat.
He had just sat down and taken a few bites when they started fighting again downstairs.
"Little brat, you've learned to play innocent now? You only work when the master is here. Why don't you show the master your ugly behavior of beating up old people?"
"You old fossil, aren't you acting too? The older you get, the more cunning you become! I suggest you open the door and wash your forehead in the rain, wash all the shit out of your brain! Do you steal food from the toilet every day?"
"How dare you speak like that, you little runt! How did your parents teach you? Oh, I forgot, you don't have parents! Your household registration book is only one page long!"
"Old man, sweeping robots don't have parents. Are you deliberately looking for trouble? I'll beat you to death today!"
The 咔咔咔 sound echoed throughout the villa.
He took out his phone and checked the living room's surveillance.
As expected, the two sweeping robots kept backing up, charging forward, backing up again, and colliding again, fighting fiercely. However, their shells were very sturdy, and they didn't leave any marks after bumping for so long.
Jiang Ye was confused, thinking, "Did I raise two Corgis?"
He opened his phone and sent a message to Xu Yan.
Jiang Ye: "Why are those two sweeping robots arguing and fighting again?"
Xu Yan: "Ah?"
Jiang Ye took a ten-second clip from the living room recording and sent it over.
Xu Yan: "Whoa, I've never heard of this happening before... I don't know what to do. Maybe you can retire one."
Jiang Ye: "No, retiring them is too cruel. I just want them to stop fighting. The banging is quite annoying."
Xu Yan: "It's simple. Make the floor a bit dirty, and they'll be busy and stop fighting. This kind of brawling is due to idleness."
Jiang Ye thought it made sense. He got up and went to the food printer, making a large cup of cola.
He went downstairs and directly poured the cola onto the clean white floor. The brown liquid bubbled and spread everywhere.
"No more fighting from now on. Do you think I can't hear the banging? This cup of cola is a penalty for you two to work," Jiang Ye said with a stern face.
"Yes, Master," the older sweeping robot said softly, sounding wronged.
"We know we were wrong," the new sweeping robot also said, sounding wronged.
The two robots crawled over and sucked up the cola on the floor.
Jiang Ye nodded with satisfaction and went upstairs to sleep.
He was quite tired today and fell asleep as soon as he hit the pillow.
He didn't know how long he slept when his phone vibrated continuously, waking him up.
[Air Raid Warning!]
[Mil Xin-class ship detected. Your planet is within its firing range. You may be attacked by conventional weapons, nuclear weapons, biochemical weapons, etc., within the next 24 hours. Please take defensive measures or seek shelter.]
[It will take approximately 6 to 9 hours for the Xin-class ship to fire from its current position until the strike reaches your planet. During this period, the military will calculate the trajectory and issue a strike point warning.]
[The Air Force has launched a long-range strike and will eliminate the enemy ship in approximately 15 hours, at which point the air raid warning will be lifted.]
Jiang Ye's face turned green, and goosebumps covered his body. He scrambled out of bed, fumbling to put on clothes, and called Shao Wan.
