Two Cities, I build mecha in Picheng

Chapter 532 "The Turing Test"

The days of peace continue, and everything seems to be moving towards a bright future.

When the time came to 06:30, Li Lin and Caitlin just got up and were going to do morning exercises.

Zooey left as early as last night. This girl doesn't like to sleep, and she always drags her to other places afterwards.

Most of the time, Caitlin would not interfere with them, but Li Lin had promised her last night that he would go to practice martial arts this morning, so he didn't leave with Zoe.

In fact, with their current physical fitness, there is no need to do such "meaningless" things anymore.

Just adhering to the good habits of the past, as long as Li Lin is at home for a while, Caitlin will take him to practice martial arts.

But this morning, Caitlin had just put on her training tights when she received a call from the law enforcement officer on duty in Piltover, asking her to interrogate.

But when she was about to ask for some details, the signal on the other end of the phone suddenly lost.

Caitlin looked puzzled, "Strange..."

Li Lin looped her slender waist from behind, rested his chin on her shoulder, and gently rubbed her face, "What's wrong?"

"It's the law enforcement officer on duty at night." Caitlin said, "He said that there was a criminal who refused to cooperate and asked me to interrogate him, but he didn't disclose more details... Although I am now the police chief, I have the right to know Things, but this is not in accordance with the rules and procedures."

"Maybe it's an emergency?"

Li Lin withdrew his hand from her slender waist, and patted Caitlin lightly, but she rolled her eyes back, "Don't make trouble."

Then, she pursed her lips and sighed, "Let's cancel our training today, sorry..."

"What is there to apologize for? It's important." Li Lin raised his eyebrows and smiled, "So do you need me to help? When you meet a stubborn guy, my veritaserum is very 'curative'."

"I've always felt that your stuff doesn't conform to the moral code."

"They're all criminals, they don't even pay attention to the law, why do you still talk about morality with them?"

As he said that, Li Lin patted Caitlin again at the spot just now, causing her face to turn red, and then slapped him on the "salty pig's hand".

"Don't make trouble anymore, or I'll be angry!" She took a deep breath, calmed down her beating heart, and continued: "To be precise, before the other party's charges are confirmed, we can only convict him. Defined as a suspect, now this is your city, you don't want to make a bad comment about 'beating a trick' to the outside world, right?"

"I don't care. Anyway, there is a saying in Ionia: 'If you don't do anything wrong, you won't be afraid of Azakana coming to you'. Although this statement is biased, I think most people will still support me."

Caitlin couldn't talk to him, "Hmph, you're the only one with poor mouth."

"What I'm talking about is the truth." Li Lin's smile disappeared, and he raised his eyebrows at her, "Anyway, I have nothing to do today, so I'll go with you to the city of Picheng for security. It's been a long time since I've been there."

"What? Is this the leader's inspection?" Caitlin's clothes had been transformed into future battle armor.

"I want to take advantage of someone's rest..."

"..."

Li Lin hadn't finished speaking, and Caitlin's blue pupils had become dangerous before her face was covered with a mask.

"Hiss—don't pinch my waist!"

……

……

A moment later, the two teleported to the Avenue of Stars together and arrived at the security gate of Piltover.

It was still early before work time, there were almost no one on the main road, the gate of the Picheng security guard was ajar, and the civilian staff in the duty room at the gate were dozing off.

The officer on duty who had called just now went to nowhere, and learned that the sheriff was here, and another law enforcement officer brought the two to the interrogation room.

On the opposite side of the one-way glass, a middle-aged man was handcuffed to an interrogation chair. His gray and black short and medium-short hair was slightly disheveled. He covered his drooping face with his hands bound by the magic stone shackles, so he couldn't see his expression clearly.

The clothes on her body are rather old, like the styles from two years ago, and the family may not be very rich...

Caitlin took a quick look at the middle-aged man, and quickly gave the judgment brought by the first impression in her heart.

Of course, this superficial feeling cannot be counted in the interrogation process, because some criminals are best at disguising.

"What did he do?" Caitlin asked the law enforcement officer next to her without moving her eyes.

"This..." the law enforcement officer scratched his head, and looked at the man next to the sheriff with some embarrassment, "This is a criminal sent by Chairman Li's mechanical engineer, and the brain has not clarified his information to us."

[This gentleman’s information has not been registered, but his genetic sequence test matches a black rose escapee from Noxus. 】

As soon as the policeman's voice fell, Zhinao showed his "personified" facial projection with no gender, and said.

"Is there a matching place? With Li Lin's genetic technology and your computing power, there shouldn't be such uncertain factors, right?" Caitlin questioned, and the intelligence brain fell silent instantly, and the avatar disappeared.

She frowned slightly, and looked at Li Lin, who was acting as if nothing had happened, with puzzled eyes, as if she had noticed something.

"What the hell is going on... You don't want to use me to test something, do you?" Kaitlyn mused, "I remember that you often went to the college recently, and Professor Heimerdinger, Jess and There is Victor studying something."

"Hey, it's the police chief, and you have to talk about evidence! Otherwise, I'll sue you for defamation."

"Hey, you bastard..."

The police officer on the side was obedient, bowed his head in embarrassment and dared not speak, pretending that he hadn't heard anything.

His immediate boss is "flirting" with her own man who is now the speaker of the entire Piltover, and rumored to be more likely to be the man behind the scenes of the two cities. He dare not intervene at this time.

Caitlin sensed the policeman's embarrassment, glared at Li Lin, and hummed softly, "I'll settle the score with you later!"

Then, she opened the door and walked into the interrogation room, walked straight to the interrogation table opposite the interrogation chair, crossed her arms and leaned against the table.

At the same time, hearing the sound of hard-soled boots touching the ground, the middle-aged man left his hands with a sad face and looked at the young and beautiful woman in front of him.

The appearance of the man is indeed a bit of Noxus's roughness, thick beard, as if it has experienced the wind and sun, and the skin has been carved by the years. Wearing Piltover clothes, at first glance, Obviously something is out of place.

"I'm Caitlin Gillamann, Sheriff of the Piltover Police. You have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will be used as evidence in court."

Caitlin paused for two seconds, giving the man a certain amount of time to think, and then said, "I heard that you were arrested because you resembled the fugitive from Noxus Black Rose?"

"It's all a misunderstanding, Miss Gilaman..." The man obviously knew Caitlin.

"This is the police station, please call me Sergeant."

"I'm sorry, Sergeant Gila Mann..." The man was so sad that he couldn't speak, "I, I'm not a criminal!"

"Every guy who gets caught will say that, but in the past two years we have an artificial intelligence system, and there are very few people who are misunderstood."

Seeing the man getting more and more emotional, Caitlin gave him a gentle smile and changed his words: "Okay, I was just joking, each of us makes mistakes, and robots are no exception."

She stood up straight and walked around the anxious man, "If you cooperate with me, I will investigate the results and return you innocent...Since you know me, you must have heard of my case name."

"Thank you, thank you so much, Sergeant Gilaman!"

Caitlin returned to the interrogation table, clicked the power button in front of the projector, then called out the recording system of the brain, and looked at the man again.

"Name, age?"

"David, David Black, I'm forty-seven, Mr. Sheriff."

"Where do you live? What is your job?"

"Uh, at the beginning, I was in the lower part of the middle square of the lower city, No. 121A Alchemy Workshop Street. I was a handyman there at first. Later, Chairman Li advocated the replacement of alchemy technology in all aspects, so I was assigned to the southern part of the upper city. Working in a manufacturing plant." David answered truthfully.

"How long have you been working?"

"This question..." David hesitated for a few seconds, "It should have been more than a year in the dock robot manufacturing factory, and in the alchemy workshop in the lower city... If I remember correctly, it has been five years. .”

"Aren't you from the Twin Cities?"

"How should I put it? I fled to the Twin Cities." David sighed, "I used to live in the southern plains of the mountains on the east side of the magnificent barrier of Noxus. War on multiple fronts, conscription across the country, to avoid conscription..."

He didn't finish the sentence, but needless to say, Caitlyn was able to figure out what happened next.

"I've heard that the Noxians are all powerful?" She asked casually, "If you participate in the war, you may be promoted to an official position, and there is no need to work to make a living like today."

"Not every Noxian savagely advocates war. Who would work for that incompetent emperor!"

David's tone suddenly became agitated, "At the beginning, Noxus conquered my country, and my family members were killed by the stones from the attacking catapults, and they didn't even say sorry!
"It is the king who is determined to resist, and has nothing to do with us ordinary people. We have not resisted Noxus, and even welcome this powerful country to replace our equally corrupt royal regime, but I cannot accept such a result!"

His eye sockets were flushed, and there were tears rolling faintly, and he felt powerless.

"Sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned this." Caitlin's tone slowed down a bit, apologizing.

"It's been more than twenty years, and it's all over." David sniffled and smiled bitterly, "I've already passed my prime of life, and I want to spend the rest of my life in peace, but I don't want to be the one that Darkwill throws on the battlefield." cannon fodder."

Caitlin was silent for a moment, with the interface of the projection screen reflected in her eyes, then she turned her lower body slightly, shifted her gaze back to David, and said puzzledly: "According to what you mean, since you have been in Shuangcheng for many years, you should know the information here. Variety.

"In these years, before Chairman Li came to power, Councilors Gilaman and Midarda began to advocate that all citizens go to the law enforcement offices in Piltover or Zaun to register their personal network information.

"After Chairman Li took office, he stepped up his efforts to implement it in all aspects. He sent mechanical engineers to door-to-door to inquire about registration. Why is your name not listed here? Or..."

Caitlin called up the information system that could not be called up with the power of an ordinary law enforcement officer, projected it in front of David, and showed it to him.

The system information clearly stated that the owner of the name "David Black" had died in the alchemy bombing attack planned by Renata Golask in the Zaun trench area two years ago.

"...This is it?" David looked dull.

"Except for people from other countries, the information files of the dead people in Shuangcheng will be deleted by the system, but with the power of the police chief, I can still investigate the personal information of some dead people.

"From the beginning to the end, there was only one man named David Black in the Twin Cities, who was born in Noxus. There was no second person with the same name and surname. He happened to be a visitor from Noxus. Unfortunately, your name is here on the death list."

Caitlin changed the topic, her tone became cold, "I remember that the black rose happens to have a magic called 'trickery', which can change into the appearance of other people.

"Next time I pretend to be an ordinary person to escape the hunt, can I trouble you, Black Rose, to pretend to be a person with identity information in Shuangcheng, okay?"

"This... this, this, this is impossible!" David was stunned, and immediately shouted: "I didn't die in that accident! And later, I went to the Law Enforcement Office to register my personal information normally!"

"Unfortunately, I mobilized the employee rosters of several dock robot construction factories in Nancheng District, but your name is not included."

"I'm in... the factory under Chairman Li's name! The name, the name is... the Future Founder Factory. It used to be the factory of the ex-senator's family, Worthlaton, who made mechanical parts for steamships!"

As David said, Caitlin switched the screen and projected the employee roster interface of the arsenal he was talking about in front of him.

As each name passed by, David's face became paler until the last name disappeared. He explained in panic: "No, no, no... there must be something wrong!"

Before Caitlin could continue the interrogation, Li Lin walked in when the door leading to the monitoring room on the other side of the one-way glass slammed softly.

"Why are you here? Get out." Caitlin immediately stood up, frowning dissatisfiedly: "Even if you are the speaker, you can't break into the interrogation room during the interrogation process. This is against the rules."

Seeing Li Lin, David seemed to be grasping at straws, and immediately cried out in a crying voice: "Li Lin... Speaker Li, you must help me prove my innocence! I..."

Li Lin just waved his hands, stared straight at the middle-aged man with a mournful face, and asked an inexplicable question: "Can you play Jianqi or chess?"

Jianqi is a board game popular in Noxus and Demacia, and chess is a board game that Li Lin brought to this world and is popular in Shuangcheng.

Not only David, but even Caitlin was stunned, never expecting him to ask such a question.

"Don't mess with me..."

Before Caitlin could finish speaking, Li Lin stopped her with a look, as if seeing something, he stretched out a finger and poked him a few times in the air.

"You really are... oh."

Afterwards, she pouted and sat back on the chair with some displeasure, and handed over the situation to Li Lin to control.

"Can you play Jianqi or chess?" He asked David this irrelevant question again.

"Uh... I know how to play Noxus chess. As for chess, I've watched my workers play it before, so I know a little bit..."

"Can you play Jianqi or chess?"

"Speaker Li, didn't I answer your question just now?"

Li Lin didn't say anything else. He still stared straight at David's slightly cloudy gray-blue eyes, and asked a repetitive question again: "Can you play Jianqi or chess?"

David looked at Caitlin blankly, "This...is this?"

She had guessed that Li Lin was using David to test herself, but she was confused by his question.

"You are enough, what do you want to do?"

She got up and walked to Li Lin, trying to pull him out to ask for clarification, but Li Lin didn't move at all.

At this time, he changed to a more bizarre question: "Are you human?"

Kaitlyn couldn't help covering her face and sighing, while David felt uncomfortably stared at by Li Lin, and said cautiously: "What are you talking about... I'm not a human being, so I can still be a vastaya or a tauren Is it?"

"Are you human?" Li Lin refused to let go.

"Uh..." David didn't know what to say anymore.

"Are you human?"

At this time, David even forgot his current situation, and couldn't help asking with concern: "Speaker Li, are you... are you okay?"

Caitlin couldn't bear it anymore, "Enough Li Lin, I will get angry if you do this again!"

However, Li Lin ignored her, just took a deep breath slowly, with an excited smile on his face, and said to David: "Congratulations, bionic robot zero, you have passed the 'Turing test' we set up."
