Chapter 114 Cyber World 16
"Employee No. 3798, please do not smoke in the warehouse, as it could cause a fire."
Lin Xiaoqian was relieved; it turned out that the staff member was smoking, which startled her.
3798 said nonchalantly, "It's just a cigarette. I'll finish it quickly. What's the big deal?"
1805 continued, "Employee number 3798, please put out your cigarette immediately, otherwise the system will immediately upload your behavior to the employee management system."
3798 cursed under his breath, threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stubbed it out with his foot, and muttered viciously, "Hurry up and move it, you stupid robot, you think you can tell me what to do?"
1805 didn't say anything more and continued moving the instruments, getting closer and closer to the row of instruments where Lin Xiaoqian was hiding.
1805 suddenly stopped, and the lights on its head began to flash.
"Incorrect quantity..."
3798 yelled irritably, "What's wrong with you now, you idiot?" and walked towards the direction where Lin Xiaoqian was hiding.
With a loud "thud," robot number 1805 collapsed to the ground, its headlight still flashing.
3798 was startled: "Holy crap! 1805, what's wrong with you? Is something malfunctioning?" He stepped forward and patted 1805's round body.
Yu Guangzhong spotted Lin Xiaoqian's figure through the gap in the instrument.
He finally realized something was wrong and shouted, "Who's there?"
The next second, he fainted and collapsed to the ground.
Zhuang Damao jumped down from the ventilation duct; it turned out he had fired a tranquilizer dart at 3798 from above.
Zou Yue spoke from above, "This robot discovered the discrepancy in the number of instruments and was about to report it to the warehouse system, but I caught it in time. I just hacked into the robot's system and can control it for fifteen minutes. Hurry up."
Lin Xiaoqian and Zhuang Damao exchanged a glance and began to act.
Most of the equipment in the room was moved out by the robot. The two walked out and saw a warehouse transport vehicle parked outside, which was loaded with the equipment from the room.
Lin Xiaoqian unceremoniously took the car and put it into the warehouse.
Then, looking at the scene before me, I saw a spacious corridor with doors on both sides, clearly indicating that many things were stored behind these doors.
Lin Xiaoqian carefully examined the door locks on the room doors, then suddenly seemed to remember something. She returned to the room she had just been in, turned 3798 over from the floor, and sure enough, saw the employee badge on his neck.
This employee badge is very thick; it likely has a chip embedded inside.
She took off her employee badge and planned to try other doors.
Zou Yue saw through her intention and frowned, reminding her, "There are still twelve minutes left, and we still need to spend five minutes getting out."
Lin Xiaoqian paused for a moment, then nodded to her: "I know, we'll be back soon."
Jiang Shuang looked at Zou Yue with a worried expression. She had wanted to go down with her, but Zou Yue's face had turned pale and she seemed unwell. She nestled weakly in Jiang Shuang's arms.
Lin Xiaoqian tried her employee ID card on the door of the next room.
"drop!"
It actually opened.
Zhuang Damao pushed open the heavy door, revealing a room full of electronic components, including microprocessors, sensors, controllers, and so on—all components for mechanical prosthetics. Lin Xiaoqian took them all without hesitation.
Lin Xiaoqian packed the things, while Zhuang Damao opened the door. Inside a room, the two of them surprisingly discovered production equipment and design drawings for mechanical prosthetics. Unfortunately, there was no technical data, but this was still very encouraging.
After loading all these items, the warehouse was full, so the two of them quickly returned to the room where the neural interface implant was stored. To prevent anyone from seeing what was happening inside, they thoughtfully closed the door.
Lin Xiaoqian and Zhuang Damao climbed into the ventilation opening in the ceiling and saw Zou Yue lying in Jiang Shuang's arms, her face pale and her eyes closed, looking dizzy. They asked worriedly, "What's wrong with Xiaoyue?"
Jiang Shuang shook her head, looking worried: "I don't know, it's been like this since just now."
Zou Yue slightly opened her eyes: "Let's go quickly."
Jiang Shuang tied Zou Yue to her body with a rope, and the group slowly climbed out of the ventilation shaft and returned to the ground through the sewer they had come from.
Zou Yue whispered, "Okay, it's safe now."
Soon, Lin Xiaoqian and his group heard the factory alarm sounding.
The group dared not relax and quickly returned along the original route. They took out their flying car from a secluded spot and left.
Back at the restaurant entrance, it was just getting light.
Lin Xiaoqian and the others quickly went upstairs to Zou Qi's room to check on the situation.
Liao Zhuang was overjoyed to see them return: "You're back. Zou Qi's condition is relatively stable now."
Lin Xiaoqian nodded. Zou Qi's condition was okay for the time being, but Zou Yue was not doing well. She didn't know what was wrong, but she was obviously not suitable to do anything.
Zou Yue stretched out her little hand in Jiang Shuang's arms: "Prepare some food for me."
Lin Xiaoqian was a little surprised, but she still went to the kitchen to get her some food.
Zou Yue was placed on a stool and sat down, eating the food that Lin Xiaoqian had brought.
After eating some food, Zou Yue's complexion seemed to improve, but she didn't stop eating. She ate until her belly was round and made her look even thinner, but she still didn't stop.
Lin Xiaoqian was a little worried that she would overeat, "Xiaoyue, you can eat later."
Zou Yue shook her head, still with food in her mouth: "My sister must have already told you about the Brain Flash Memory Project. I am one of the test subjects."
Ignoring the shock of Lin Xiaoqian and the others, she continued, "Actually, the Brain Flash Memory Project is also a cover. The real purpose of that experiment is to digitize human consciousness."
She raised her head and looked at Lin Xiaoqian and the others with her big eyes: "I am the only successful test subject."
Seeing the puzzled looks on Lin Xiaoqian's face.
She explained, "Bohr wants to create an artificial intelligence that develops from human consciousness. He believes that while traditional AI excels in computation and logical reasoning, it lacks genuine creativity and emotional understanding. Human consciousness, on the other hand, possesses rich imagination, creativity, and emotional experience. He hopes to combine the two to create a new type of intelligent agent that transcends traditional AI."
Lin Xiaoqian and the others were speechless. They knew that people in the cyber world could be a little crazy, but this was just too crazy.
“After my sister and I escaped, my body was malnourished for a long time, and my artificial intelligence was often shut down because it did not have enough energy to maintain its state. So I had to replenish a lot of energy in order to perform surgery on my sister.”
Zou Yue explained why she ate so much.
The crowd fell silent. Zou Qi's life hung by a thread, and the only one who could save her was Zou Yue, so they couldn't stop her.
Fortunately, Zou Yue's body also has its limits, so she was unable to eat much more.
After a short rest, preparations began to be made to perform surgery on Zou Qi.
Zhuang Damao and Jiang Shuang were there to help her.
The surgery took a whole day. Lin Xiaoqian and Liao Zhuang waited outside, occasionally bringing food to the three people inside.
The restaurant remained closed throughout the entire incident, and Lin Xiaoqian did not open the door no matter what happened outside.
It wasn't until Jiang Shuang carried Zou Yue, who had her eyes closed, out that the incident occurred.
"She was exhausted after the surgery, let her sleep."
Seeing that Jiang Shuang also looked exhausted, Lin Xiaoqian took Zou Yue and placed her on the bed in the empty room opposite. The little girl was so light that she seemed weightless when held in her arms.
Looking at Zou Yue's sleeping face, Lin Xiaoqian asked in his mind, "System, what conditions do I need to take the Zou sisters back?"
