mechanical heart

Curry is cooking in the pot.

The viscous coconut milk is poured into the boiling fennel honey juice, and the diced carrots, onion, and potato cubes are slightly fried and added to the warm fire and simmered. At the same time, Cheng Ling added a small amount of cold water to it and covered the pot. Let it soften on its own.

He turned to look at the rice cooker, there were still 10 minutes.So Cheng Ling took off his apron and walked out of the kitchen. The robot dog Heipi was standing at the kitchen door looking up at him with a clean white handkerchief in his mouth.

"Hei Pi, thank you." With a faint smile on Cheng Ling's face, he bent down to take the handkerchief and wiped his hands, "Let's have curry tonight."

After hearing what Cheng Ling said, Heipi turned around a few times excitedly, and a child-like voice came out of it, "Oh! That's great! Curry, curry!"

Mechanical simulated creatures have similar perception abilities to humans, and even their body structures are similar to those of the original species.Therefore, the simulated organisms also have digestive organs, and eating will not cause any harm to the body.

What's more, the black skin was originally a defective product that Cheng Ling bought on the black market, but after being repaired by Cheng Ling, it is no different from an ordinary dog ​​now.

"By the way, Ling, who is that person lying on the bed?" Heipi turned a corner and sprinted into Cheng Ling's room, resting his front paws on the edge of the bed, staring at the hair of the person Cheng Ling picked up. Bright.

This is the first time that Hei Pi sees Cheng Ling taking someone home.

Heipi's memory stick started in this room.At that time, it could not stand up on its limbs, and watched Cheng Ling come in and out every day, and went out empty-handed, often returning with a full load.

Sometimes it’s tools, sometimes it’s fruits and vegetables. Although Heipi doesn’t understand the value of those broken metals, Heipi is very curious about where Cheng Ling found these things, but whenever this question is asked, Cheng Ling’s silence makes him Know that your owner doesn't want to talk about these kinds of topics.

Cheng Ling took a glass of water and leaned against the door of the room. He looked at the other party up and down under the bright light, and after thinking for a few seconds, he said, "I don't know."

Maybe it's the people from the other side, or maybe it's the experimental subjects on the human side.Thinking of the marks on the back of the man's left hand, Shiroro fell into deep thought.

Before taking the man back to his house, Shiroro used a clean syringe to draw about two milliliters of blood from the other man's neck and stored it in a test tube with anticoagulant.It has been almost seven hours since the blood was drawn. According to the scientists, if he was from that day, the blood would have turned black, right?

Thinking about it, Cheng Ling turned around and was about to walk towards his equipment room.

"Hmm..." But at this moment, there was a rustling sound from the person on the bed, and Cheng Ling suddenly stopped in his tracks, looking at him warily.Hei Pi also quickly ran out of the room and hid behind Cheng Ling.

The other party slowly opened his eyes, and the dazzling light made his irises shrink slightly.He closed his eyes to get used to the dim light, and then he saw a beige ceiling, a simple room, and finally a boy and a dog standing at the door.

The memory was confused for a moment, he remembered that he seemed to be strangling the neck of the boy in front of him before he passed out.He opened his mouth to speak, but the dryness in his throat made him gasp and cough violently.

Cheng Ling glanced hesitantly at the water in his hand that he hadn't touched before, stepped forward a few steps, helped the other party to feed water carefully.

After drinking all the water in the cup, Cheng Ling returned to a safe distance and silently watched the other party recover.

"Are you an experimental subject?" This was the first sentence Cheng Ling said after the other party woke up.

The man nodded silently, and Cheng Ling fell into deep thought.

For a long time, whether they were humans or robots, they had all had test subjects.The experimental body of the robot often has some adjustments in the function and behavior of the body.On the human side, it's much more complicated.

As early as before the development of robots, some scientists discussed the issue of robots possessing human thinking, but at that time they finally came to the conclusion that machines could never defeat humans.However, in order to prevent it from happening, the scientist who proposed the robot blood theory gave half of the human heart to the first artificially developed robot, and made a statement saying: "If one day robots really want to conquer humans , You only need to destroy the mechanical heart of the first robot, and then all the robots will become scrap metal."

Thinking of this, Cheng Ling didn't care to continue asking.

Cheng Ling leaned on the door rail and looked sideways at the other party, "Cheng Ling, my name. The city of the city, the zero of the zero."

The other party squirmed his lips, then raised a smile, "Chu Yi, my name is Chu Yi."

03

Normal humans are always wary when they arrive in a strange place or meet someone they don't know at all, but the first day of junior high school is different. He is like a baby who completely trusts Cheng Ling.

For example, right now, when I pick up a piece of steaming carrot with chopsticks on the first day of the junior high school, stars almost pop out of my eyes.

"Is this a radish? It's soft and sweet!"

I originally thought that people with strange powers would have quirks in their personality, but Cheng Ling never expected that the first day of junior high school would be completely talkative.He sighed, and turned to explain to Chuyi, until Chuyi finished all the food in the pot, Chuyi's mouth that had not stopped finally calmed down.

After the meal, Lai chatted with Cheng Ling on the sofa holding a cup of hot tea. He seemed a little embarrassed, "And this is the first time I've talked to someone."

"the first time?"

Chu Yi stretched out his hand to scratch his nose, and said with a smile: "Before, I was locked in the laboratory, and the food was some nutrient solution or something. The person who delivered the food was not allowed to talk to me, and I also saw Not to anyone other than the delivery person."

laboratory?In other words, the other party is imprisoned.Hearing the words of the first day of junior high school, Cheng Ling fell into deep thought.

"This is the first time I have tasted fresh vegetables." Chu Yi tilted his head and thought for a while, "I remember that in recent years, even vegetables can't be bought in the market. How did you get them?"

"Plant cell cloning technology." Cheng Ling is also unambiguous, "Using single cell culture in vitro, as long as the nutrient solution is sufficient, and the optimum conditions for plant enzymes are maintained at room temperature, the cell division speed is faster than we imagined."

Speaking of this, Cheng Ling couldn't help but sneered, "Speaking of which, do you really think that those scientists in the laboratory who claim to be extraordinary and who say they have made contributions to the world will eat food that is not as good as pig food like nutrient solution? Most people who have never eaten vegetables are poor. After all, in times of war, apart from life, the most important thing is money."

When Cheng Ling was talking, Chu Yi looked at him very seriously.The light dimmed for a moment, he blinked, and suddenly felt a little confused, "Since there is technology, why not share it with the poor? In this way, won't everyone have the opportunity to taste fresh food?"

Cheng Ling was a little speechless, but he didn't expect the other party to be such a simple person, so simple that he was a little stupid, "Is your head used for decoration?"

On the first day of the lunar new year, he continued to blink, "No, I would die without a head."

Cheng Ling took a deep breath, put his index finger between his eyebrows, "only valuable things have the right to use valuable things. Technology is like this, and so are people. As a person, if you don't even have the most basic use value, then You are garbage, so, do you still think that the government will support garbage that eats for free?"

Chu opened his mouth and couldn't find anything to answer him for a while, but he still looked straight at Cheng Ling quite seriously, "Your thinking is very dangerous now. You are an antisocial personality, although it is not serious, but It is already deteriorating, you have to pay attention to yourself."

"Okay, I'll pay attention." Facing the sincere eyes of the first day of junior high school, Cheng Ling's original annoyed mood instantly turned into a dumbfounding. The other party's thinking is like a newborn brain, and he will not consider private thoughts when dealing with new food. Right or wrong is entirely up to the matter itself.

Even if he grew up in a closed space, Cheng Ling has to say that the way of thinking in the first year of junior high school is exactly the same as that of a robot.

Robot?Cheng Ling was startled, and there was a slight emotional fluctuation on his face, but he quickly suppressed it, and pointed to his room, "Today you sleep in my room, and if you want to leave tomorrow morning, you don't need to talk to me. Say hello. Good night then."

Cheng Ling stood up and walked towards the equipment room. After Heipi Xiangchu said goodnight, he also entered the equipment room wagging his head.
