Inside the Lingmu Family home, Suzuki lay around like an Emperor, and everyone who passed by him dared not breathe too loudly, except for Sun Jack, who was automatically cleaning next to him.
In his records, there were three more women in the house, all brought back by Muzi when she was pregnant, and they had never left since, staying at home all the time.
Muzi's child, naked, wobbled next to Sun Jack, watching him float around cleaning, seemingly pondering why this object could fly.
Just then, the door suddenly burst open, and a girl wearing a collar walked in, excitedly saying, "Master! Muzi is trying to escape! She said she's going to call the police!"
"Oh?" Suzuki, who was lying in a woman's arms, slowly opened his eyes, a trace of coldness on his face, but he did not seek to reprimand Muzi; instead, he reached out and smacked the child next to him.
With a crisp "snap," Muzi's child immediately started crying. As Suzuki kicked her, the girl's cries grew louder, filling the entire room, attracting everyone except the child's mother.
Finally, as Suzuki was about to kick the girl's head, the nearly hysterical Muzi rushed in, grabbed her child, and hugged her, crying in despair.
"Muzi, haven't I been good enough to you? Why do you want to run? Are you not afraid that videos of you being gang-raped will appear online?"
Glaring bitterly, Muzi almost growled, "It was you! You sent those men to rape me! Then you used that video to control me!"
"Is that so? You know about it, huh? So what?" Suzuki said coldly, stepping forward and starting to beat and kick Muzi.
Facing the attack, Muzi was silent while embracing her child, but when Suzuki reached out for the child again, she finally capitulated, "Please! I was wrong! I'll do anything you say! Just don't hurt my child!!"
Satisfied, Suzuki sat back down in his previous spot and casually said while watching TV, "Slap yourself, keep slapping until I'm satisfied."
For the sake of her child, Muzi compromised. She despairingly raised her hand and kept slapping herself. Her face soon turned purple, but she dared not stop.
As Suzuki spilled some tea on the floor beside them, Sun Jack immediately came over to clean it up. Suzuki said to Sun Jack as he observed him cleaning, "See, sometimes controlling people is just this simple. Children are everything to them; they think they're cold-hearted, but they soften as soon as their child is in front of them."
In this household, even though he was the head of the family, he trusted no one; sometimes he only spoke his true thoughts to the Cleaning Robot.
After finishing his words, Suzuki nodded in satisfaction to the collared woman beside him, who had a flattering smile, "You did well snitching. Sit next to me at dinner, and come to my room tonight."
"Thank you, Master," the woman said, a sly grin on her face as she knelt down to massage Suzuki's legs, her sense of superiority growing as she glanced at the other women and lifted her chin proudly.
"Was it you?!" Hearing this, Muzi looked incredulously at the collared woman, "Did you snitch on me!? Why do you want to harm me!"
"Why can't I harm you! Remember, you tricked me into coming here! You bitch! You deserve this!" hissed the collared woman viciously.
The two women hurled insults at each other and eventually started to physically fight, pulling each other's hair. Suzuki did not intervene; instead, he watched the drama unfold.
"See? Women are wretched; they don't care about right or wrong. Just put them in an enclosed environment, and instinct drives them to attach to the strongest, even becoming jealous and resenting each other to vie for position," Suzuki told Sun Jack. "And this can also be exploited by me."
After about fifteen minutes, a bored Suzuki spoke up, "Okay, okay, everyone stop and go back to what you were doing."
The two, exhausted and panting, though carried away by their confrontation, dared not defy Suzuki's command and separated from each other.
Just as Muzi was about to kneel back in her original spot to continue slapping her own face, Suzuki stopped her, "That's enough, no need to hit anymore."
Muzi looked at her husband in astonishment, just when she thought she had escaped a calamity, she heard him speak, "Go, go sleep with Jian Tai, and record the process on video."
"Jian Tai? No! Absolutely not!!" Muzi quickly shook her head, but upon seeing Suzuki's hand reaching towards her child's neck, she closed her mouth in utter helplessness.
"All you have to do is get undressed and crawl into his bed tonight, and once you've done it, this will be over; you'll still be the mistress of this house."
"I... I trust Jian Tai, he wouldn't do this to me," said Muzi tearfully as she turned to leave, but a smug smile spread across Suzuki's face.
"A fifteen-year-old boy, his veins are running with semen; right now, if you give him a sow he'd have his way with it. Men are beasts, don't expect a beast to stay rational."
A woman massaging his legs spoke with a flattering tone, "Master, you really know it all."
"Very good," Suzuki said as he patted her head. "By the way, how's that woman in the storage doing?"
"She's almost recovered from her injuries, but it seems she's gone mad, just like an idiot."
Hearing this, Suzuki stroked his chin and after a moment spoke, "Then, forget it; since we've squeezed all the money out of her, just kill her. Besides, she's a tourist from Earth, nobody will notice if she disappears."
Soon, the woman from the storage was dragged into the courtyard, but Suzuki did not act himself. Instead, he ordered others in the house to do it, each person hitting the woman's head with a stick.
Although everyone had a look of reluctance, thinking of the leverage Suzuki held against them silenced them; paired with the illusion that it might not be them delivering the fatal blow, they all reluctantly hit her until her skull caved in and they stopped.
All this was recorded by Suzuki, who then turned to Sun Jack.
"Once they've done it, they will continue to sink deeper step by step. The outside world can no longer accommodate you all, only here can they depend on and rely on this place."
"See, although technology keeps advancing, human nature can never be upgraded. Dealing with people will always just need the old tricks, it's really quite boring at times."
The yard was dug up, revealing several corpses below. Watching as the new body was thrown in, Suzuki turned away satisfied.
As a Cleaning Robot, Sun Jack merely recorded all this silently; days passed and the house occasionally welcomed a few more women.
Most of them stayed on in the house, but some disappeared, all at the word of Suzuki.
Gradually, the tightly closed doors opened, yet not a single member of the family dared to leave.
