As long as 998 old Gong takes home

"This, is it you who drew it?"

In art history class, Qiao Yu was practicing on the draft paper with a pen in hand, when a classmate who was late for most of the class and just sneaked in suddenly said.

"what……"

Before Qiao Yu could turn his head, the classmate stepped closer: "I'm drawing your AI again, why didn't you bring it to school to see... This is the style, you must be right!"

His classmate's words made him stop his pen irritably, and immediately turned the draft paper over and pressed it under the textbook.

Indeed, he practiced 998 almost casually—because he spends a lot of time together, he can outline the appearance of 998 at various times almost without thinking.998 was randomly drawn with a pencil on the draft paper, some leaned against the wall, some fell asleep, and some stood in front of the window enjoying the sunshine.The classmate didn't care what he was drawing, so he just reached out and let him see his ID screen.

"Gods' Mistakes" / In serial / Author: Wide Area Virus

"..." Qiao Yu suddenly pushed his hand away, "It's not me."

"It must be you. I just read your draft. It looks like your style!" The classmate said while flipping through his draft paper.

Qiao Yu had quick eyes and quick hands. Before he could pull out the card, he took it away, crumpled it into a ball, and threw it into the bag: "...how did you see this?"

"I found it at random," the classmate said with a smile, "I recognized you right away. The storyboard is pretty good... I don't think it's very popular."

Qiao Yu's words are equivalent to acquiescing - he has indeed been serializing comics, probably since he was in high school.

Because I am so busy every day, this manga will be updated once a month at best, and I can update one more chapter occasionally.Just as a classmate said, no one reads this manga, and it has been serialized so far purely out of love. Qiao Yu doesn't expect it to be a big hit, and he will be satisfied when he finishes drawing it.

He wanted to be a cartoonist, but his thoughts were worn out by reality early on, and he didn't give up or insist.

"Actually, it's easy to sell a little love story, or a sideshow." The classmate said mischievously, "...Your basic skills are so good, I want to read your sketches."

"..." Qiao Yu rolled her eyes.

The classmate was surprisingly talkative. Seeing that he didn't intend to continue the topic, he started another thread: "Hey, then you didn't bring your AI out. Does it clean and cook at home all day, like a newlywed wife?"

"...what's on your mind."

"Tell me, I'm curious." The classmate shoved him twice with his shoulders, "I don't have a personal AI, you don't know how much I envy you."

Qiao Yu really thought about it, and then said honestly, "I don't know what he's doing at home...he should be watching TV right now."

-

just now.

998 sits on the tram and pays attention to the station name on the sign from time to time.

Several girls who looked like high school students were whispering not far away.

"...That's an artist! It must be an artist?! Maybe it's a newcomer!"

"I haven't seen it before, it looks good! It looks like AI!"

"Yes, yes, how can someone grow up like this!!"

"But it's definitely not AI. AI has a number on its face."

They thought they were very quiet, but in fact 998 heard them all and ignored them.He doesn't really understand human's pursuit of "beauty" - he can clearly use technology to create a flawless AI, but he also pursues "natural", "pure" and "non-artificial".And he doesn't think his appearance is outstanding, at least Qiao Yu never praised him for being beautiful or handsome.

These things are not in the scope of 998's concern. What he cares more about is when the tram will arrive at the stop where he wants to get off.

Even if the arrival time is written on the timetable, the error will not be greater than 2 minutes, but he still checks the signs from time to time.

Because Qiao Yu would laugh at him if he passed the stand.

998 also sent many messages to Qiao Yu, asking him why he got angry in the morning and what happened to the "subsistence allowance system".But his overbearing master didn't reply a single word, so he had to search for relevant information by himself, and by the way, he also checked Cha Qiaoyu's school.

Today's new TV series is Spy War, 998 has no interest, so he decides to go out to find Qiao Yu.

What do humans... do when they have nothing to do?

Qiao Yu has nothing to do, he is always busy, even if he doesn't have to work or go to school, he is still painting.

Soon the tram arrived at a station in the circle, 998 got off there, followed the searched route result and swiped Qiao Yu's ID card from the east exit.He doesn't have a navigation system, so he can only download maps from the Internet, carefully identify the direction in the simplest way, and find his destination while looking at the street signs and shop numbers on the street.

Everywhere in the circle is very noisy, music is played from the shops along the street, and there are always many human beings crowded and chattering in front of the large shops.

"Who is the number one Brain King in Tsushima! The first Brain King Competition is about to start! On-site registration is accepted!! Only humans can participate!! AI is not allowed!!" A young girl was holding a loudspeaker, full of vigor The store is full of promotional activities, "No.1 bonus is 2 yuan!"

Many people stopped at the door of the store to discuss with their friends or the AI ​​around them.

998 also looked over there, and could clearly see the words on the promotional poster next to him from a long distance away.

"Brain King" quiz!

No.1, a bonus of 2 yuan; No.2, a new humanoid AI worth 3 yuan; No.[-], a fully automatic household sweeping robot...

Which is better, a robot vacuum cleaner or a vacuum cleaner?

In the eyes of passers-by, the beautiful orange-haired young man is staring at the store in a daze; in fact, 998 is frantically inquiring about the difference between the two.

The girl with the loudspeaker noticed him for some reason, and said enthusiastically, "Brother over there! Don't you want to come and play! There is also a participation prize! An ice shaved machine!"

998 walked over and asked softly, "How do I participate?"

"Just swipe the ID, and it will start in 10 minutes!...Uh, don't you wear the ID?" The girl looked at his empty wrist and said.

998 thought for a while, then took out Qiao Yu's ID card from his pocket: "Is this okay?"

"Yes!" The girl enthusiastically led him inside, leading him all the way to the registration office, "...Swipe here, enter your identity and you can participate!"

"drop--"

"Mr. Qiao Yu, wait a minute, the game will start in 10 minutes! Please follow me here!"

Hearing someone call him that, he unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth and smiled.
