Mecha: Return of the Pioneers

Chapter 934 Xiaoying’s existence!
"Is this a ghost?!"

The entrance of the cafeteria was crowded with people.

Everyone was looking into the cafeteria, as if wanting to see clearly what was happening inside the cafeteria at the moment.

Especially the ladies in the crowd, their hearts melted when they saw the little figure sitting obediently on the table.

The wings with soft feathers, the round and cute face, and the well-behaved sitting posture all fascinate women who have no resistance to cute things.

If they had not considered that the people in the cafeteria at the moment were either the captain or the heads of various departments, I am afraid that these women would have rushed into the cafeteria long ago and carefully explored where that lovely figure came from.

"cough!"

The moment a cough was heard, the crowd, who seemed to be on the verge of collapse, suddenly froze and retreated to the back. However, the heads of various departments sitting in the cafeteria could still see the figure hiding outside the door.

"Captain, I'll go and tell them to be quiet!"

Gu Daijin couldn't help but speak.

"No. That's not necessary! It's a good opportunity to let everyone see the legendary ghost."

Okita Jusan waved his hands, feeling a little headache, but more of a relief.

Compared to the so-called ghost, the well-behaved and cute little guy in front of him is more acceptable.

However, he did not understand the birth mechanism of this little guy.

According to He Ming, it seems that this electronic life form was born by chance due to some special reasons.

Okita Jusan looked at Sanada Shiro beside him.

As the top technician of Yamato, Shiro Sanada's opinion might make what happens next clearer.

"AU09."

As Shiro Sanada called out a code name, a cylindrical robot slowly appeared in front of everyone with the sound of tracks running.

"AU09, Analyst. This is the auxiliary computer used on our Yamato. It has its own independent thinking and actions, and is an independent individual."

Shiro Sanada pointed at the AU09 analyst, and the other party responded to Shiro Sanada's words and bowed slightly to everyone.

Since the Yamato set sail, everyone on the Yamato has become accustomed to the presence of AU09 analysts.

"I believe you are all used to the existence of analysts. So, do you think that analysts can be considered independent lives?"

Sanada Shiro's question caused everyone to fall into silence.

"How is that possible?"

At this moment, a teasing voice sounded from the side.

Everyone looked up and found that they had been busy for a while but to no avail. As a result, under the order of Okita Jusan, the security chief Ito Shinya had no choice but to withdraw the team.

"No matter how AU09 speaks and acts like a human, isn't it just a machine? Deputy Captain, when you say this, do you also feel that you are a little whimsical?"

Hearing what Ito Shinya said, most people frowned silently.

To be honest, although everyone is used to the existence of AU09 analysts, deep down in their hearts, everyone regards AU09 analysts as tools, as machines that can be used at any time.

Seeing everyone's reactions, Ito Shinya revealed a smug smile.

"Therefore, the so-called electronic life is nothing but human imagination! I have reason to believe that this little guy is just an alien life form that we humans have never seen so far. Some people have dubbed it as electronic life in an attempt to get away with it!"

"Security Minister! This matter is far from settled! Don't act on your own!"

Okita Jusan shouted coldly.

Ito Shinya raised his eyebrows, opened his eyes slightly, looked at He Ming provocatively, and said nothing more.

However, after Ito Shinya's remarks this time, some people seemed to agree with his speculation.

After all, the AU09 analyst, created with the most advanced human technology, can only operate with its cylindrical body and tracks. When everyone looked at the little guy sitting obediently in front of He Ming, they all had an incredible feeling in their hearts.

How could such a lively and cute electronic life form appear in this world?

How is it possible? How is it done?
Or is it some forbidden human experiment?
"Xiao Ying."

In the face of Ito Shinya's questioning, He Ming just smiled faintly and opened his right hand. Xiaoying flapped its wings obediently and flew into his palm.

"The birth of Xiaoying was an accidental event, and there is no possibility of reproducing it. However, I can guarantee that Xiaoying is indeed an electronic life form different from that of humans."

Then, He Ming looked at Okita Jusan.

"Captain, I need to use the screen here."

Okita Jusan nodded and looked at Sanada Shiro.

The latter immediately sent someone to temporarily separate the canteen's screen link permissions from the Yamato's data network, and handed the interface data to He Ming.

"Thank you!"

After He Ming took the data chip representing temporary authority, he handed it to Xiaoying.

Then, under the gaze of everyone, Xiaoying hugged the data chip room, and a figure suddenly appeared on the screen in the cafeteria.

She was waving her hands to greet everyone.

Everyone was shocked. After seeing the figure on the screen clearly, they suddenly turned around to look at the little guy sitting in He Ming's palm, whose body had become somewhat transparent.

"What exactly is going on?!"

Mingming was sitting in He Ming's palm, but he was able to appear on the screen in the cafeteria without any wired connection.

Such a strange situation gave everyone a vague understanding of the so-called electronic life forms.

"I see. The so-called electronic life forms were probably born in the data network, and through some kind of opportunity, they achieved a leap from the data level to the real world, becoming special life forms that can exist in both the real world and the data network at the same time."

Shiro Sanada touched his chin, then looked at Yamamoto Ling who had been sitting on the side and remained silent.

"And a few hours ago, Lieutenant Yamamoto Ling came to the hangar for some purpose and accidentally discovered Xiaoying's existence. When she came into contact with Xiaoying, she was discovered by others, which triggered the ghost incident that caused a commotion among everyone."

After seeing the special nature of Xiaoying, Shiro Sanada drew everyone's attention back to the so-called ghost incident itself and gave a general outline of the incident.

"Wait! Now is not the time to summarize the incident! Instead, we should investigate how this little thing..."

As soon as Ito Shinya saw that Sanada Shiro seemed to be inclined to put an end to the whole incident, he immediately jumped out and raised questions.

However, before he could finish, a horrible chill suddenly descended upon him and weighed heavily on his shoulders.

"Lieutenant Ito. Xiaoying is not a thing, but a life with its own personality and thoughts. Please show some respect!"

"you!"

"Okay! Things are clear now! Based on the second mate's story and the evidence presented, we have determined that Xiaoying is an electronic life form born from the fighter Chengying. There is no doubt about this! Lieutenant Ito, the security department may be too idle. I hope to see more training reports on how the security department should deal with enemy intrusions into the ship in the future."

Okita Jusan stood up and concluded the whole incident according to Sanada Shiro's summary of the incident, then he looked outside the door.

The people who were hiding outside the door and eavesdropping quickly shrank their bodies, but were still caught by Okita Jusan.

Then, Okita Jusan looked at He Ming.

"Second mate, I wonder if we can let the little guy, um, Xiaoying, come to the cafeteria to help out during non-combat time. Of course, this is not to ask Xiaoying to do anything, but to let Xiaoying stay in the cafeteria for a while."

Okita Jusan's tone was not the tough one when giving orders, but a gentle and negotiating attitude.

He Ming nodded happily.

"Alright! Bell, when you're free, bring Xiaoying to the cafeteria to help out!"

"Yes! Major."

In just a few words, Okita Jusan and He Ming put an end to the incident.

But, obviously, Ito Shinya did not accept this result.

But what can he do in the face of the decisions made by Okita Jusan and Sanada Shiro?
