Will the out-of-control servitor meet the cosmic cat?

"Do not kill me..."

"Hey, I won't kill you."

"Do not kill me..."

It seems that this kind of tone can't break her defense at all, Hong thought helplessly, she was really stupid just now, how could she do such a horrible thing in front of the cub.

"Look up, or I'll really kill you!"

"do not want!"

Shocked, she raised her head and met Hong's "gentle" eyes—even though her appearance looked a little different from that of Jeffrey's, the unusually smooth skin without a trace of hair seemed to her even more It was full of weirdness, but for some reason, she just felt a sudden sense of peace of mind.

It's like... She doesn't know how to describe this feeling, but it's very warm and reassuring.

It's like... a mother. Although she has never felt the warmth of a mother since she grew up in the cultivation tank, she believes that the so-called mother in those people is nothing more than that.

"Wow wow wow wow!!!"

Feeling Hong's warm embrace, she finally couldn't help it, and burst into tears.

"It's okay, it's okay, you're safe." Hong patted her on the back lightly, comforting, "Nothing will hurt you."

"you're free."

PS: When I first wrote this chapter, I wrote it too briefly, and some people may not understand it. The appearance of the cubs is actually just a trigger, which made Hong make up his mind to clean them up faster, but even if these aliens Humans are strange and weird, and Hong's own morality cannot accept an intelligent creature that can enslave and mutilate the cubs of his own clan without any psychological burden.

By the way, let me answer a question in the interim post. If the cubs of those "superior people" are also cute, what will Hong do? What is lost should be cleared away.

Volume 10 Cats and Space: Chapter [-] New Cubs

In this way, Hong adopted a group of Jeffery cubs.

As she expected, after performing a physical examination on the lifeless adult Jeffreys in front, Hong found that although they could all be called "alive", they were only alive, their autonomy and thinking Her ability is almost zero, she can only accept orders mechanically, so it can be said that there is no saving value—at least with Hong's current technology.

Therefore, except for keeping a small number of samples, she could only euthanize the vast majority of people in order to die without pain--Hong didn't want to, and she couldn't keep so many walking dead, but they were too efficient as a labor force Low, not at all comparable to a robot.

After all, she belongs to the mechanical intelligence of Catus, not some kind of fraternal liberator of the galaxy. If it wasn't for Bai's appearance that evoked Red's association with Seele, those people might still be able to live for a while.

By the way, White is the Jeffrey cub who was scared to death by Red.

Originally, she only had a factory serial number, and such a name was too extravagant for a consumable item, but since it was in Hong's hands, naturally, Hong could no longer be called by a cold serial number, and Hong understood this.Although the name sounds perfunctory, Bai still likes it very much.

Due to the lack of knowledge, Bai still can't understand that Hong is a mechanical intelligence, and the object in front of him is just a mechanical body rather than a living organism.But considering that Bai had just escaped from a terrifying environment and was at a time when she was extremely vulnerable, Hong didn't reveal these things—anyway, she would understand after the teaching session.

Hong thought so, and stood up gently.

"do not go..."

Sensing the movement of the person next to him, Bai, who was originally dazed, was awakened immediately, crawled over with hands and feet, and said aggrievedly.

"Okay, okay, don't go, go to sleep." She had no choice but to sit back on the bed again - why didn't she want to leave every night, so did Xi'er, and so did Bai, "There are still things to do tomorrow."

The arrangements for these Jeffrey cubs are not as free as Xier. On the one hand, these cubs have not yet escaped from the slave mentality. A strong but gentle consciousness arranges them to do things, which can be effective. ease their anxiety.

On the other hand, Hong does not intend to raise them so purely. When they grow up, they will have to do something—no matter how powerful Hong is, she will not be able to take care of all aspects. If a few scientists can emerge from among them, help them It's also good to expand her thinking and do research, at least she didn't waste so much time planning the psychotherapy.

The psychological treatment is not very complicated. It is mostly something to help them build self-confidence, break their fear of the shadows of the past, but rely too much on others, and establish a sense of belonging to Katus—because they originally planned to send It was a gift for those so-called high-ranking officials, so these Jeffreys did not do any physical harm to them, it was just pure psychological fear. In addition, they have not been out of the training barn for a long time, and the psychological harm has not yet Deep rooted, it is relatively simple to cure.

Of course, this will take a while to start. Before that, Hong simply educates them and helps them understand some trivial things like common sense in life.

"This is an airtight door."

Hong led a group of little ones to the gate of the living area and said.

"Don't try to open this door by yourself. The outside is the isolation area and the disinfection area. The disinfection facilities can kill you in an instant." She looked at the cubs who took a few steps back and explained, "Of course , this is just for safety, your strength cannot open this door."

Bai looked at the metal gate, thought for a while, and asked timidly, "But Hong, I see you often pass through this gate? Don't tell me you won't die?"

"will not."

"Then...why?"

It seems that Bai is very concerned about this issue. This is a good thing, which shows that she has gradually stepped out of the submissive mentality, understands to observe carefully, and asks questions - Hongxin thought.

"Because my life form doesn't worry about disinfection. It's just a defense against organic life forms. After you learn this part, you will understand."

"Study...?" Bai muttered to himself.

"Very well, then the next district..."

Hong spent two hours explaining the base to them, covering all aspects of food, clothing and housing—except for traveling, they couldn't leave the base for the time being, and there was another important reason besides worrying about the threat of biological invasion to Xier That is, they cannot breathe directly, or in other words, cannot breathe the air of Catus for a long time.

The current research shows that the DNA of the Catus and Jeffrey both have a triple helix structure with a similar structure. It is only the huge difference in genetic information that allows Hong to confirm that the two are not species on the same planet.

But under such a huge difference, their appearances are surprisingly consistent, and their aesthetics are also very consistent. From the perspective of probability, this is already extremely unlikely.If he could directly breathe the air of Katus without filtering and adapting, Hong would doubt whether there was a mastermind behind the scenes.

"Okay, that's it for today, the rest of the time you can be free, remember to go to the restaurant for the second meal at 18 o'clock." Hong confirmed the time, and said with a smile, "Disband."

The cubs scattered like birds and beasts, but Bai remained.

"What's the matter? Is there anything else?" Seeing that she kept her head down and remained silent, Hong looked around, squatted down, gently cupped her cheeks with both hands, and said softly, "Go and play." .”

"Why, can't I go out with you?"

She raised her neck obediently, allowing the red hand to fully feel the fine fluff on her face - just like stroking a cat.

"Why, are we different from you?"

"Because we are not a kind of creature." Hong said softly, "You are a Jeffrey, and I am a Catus, and the outside is an environment where only a Catus can live. If you go out, you will die."

They still couldn't understand the biological protection and air filtration, so Hong simply told them to go out and die.Anyway, I don't know how many years it will be until they learn this knowledge. At that time, Hong must have a way to let them leave the base freely without wearing protective clothing.

Whether it's more advanced implants or direct genetic modification to adapt to the atmospheric environment, it's all very simple.

Hong thought so.

"Then outside, are there many Catus people?"

"Yes, there are many, and I live with them."

Hong told a little lie. Out of the protection of Xier, she still kept a lot of care, including but not limited to separating the two bases by thousands of kilometers, disguising the external environment, and pretending that there is a harmonious Katu outside. Sri Lankan society—rather than the cold machinery and the deserted land.

If outsiders knew that there was only one Catus in Catus, they might have different thoughts, she thought so.

"Then can I join?"

"What's the matter, aren't you happy living with your fellow clansmen?" Hong asked suspiciously, it shouldn't be, her monitoring equipment did not observe any bullying, but Bai himself was always unable to integrate into the group and hid alone. Do not come out in the room.

"is it okay?"

"Not yet, you will die if you go out. Compared with these, you should think about how to make friends with your friends."

Red refused.

Hearing the negative answer, Bai felt even more lost. Seeing her expression as if she was about to cry, Hong couldn't bear it for a while—but she couldn't afford to lose, and without fully confirming safety, she completely let them establish a confrontation card. Before Tusi's sense of belonging, Hong couldn't let them get in touch with Xi'er.

Forget it, give Zhang a bad check to comfort him.

"Well, if you don't isolate yourself so much, communicate with your peers more, and study hard..." Hong thought for a while, and set a goal that was almost impossible to achieve, "Learning enough to help our research institute The level of scientific research, I will tell my superiors to make an exception and let you live outside, how about it?"

"Really?" She raised her head suddenly, a little excited, "What level do you want?"

Fake, there are no research institutes at all, and I am doing scientific research myself.

Hong thought so, anyway, she has the final say on what level she is, and if she really wants to help her, at least the most cutting-edge research institutes in the former Katus can do it.Even if her IQ was really that high, before that, she would have been able to confirm her safety long ago, and she couldn't wait until then.

"Study hard and get the degree we call a "master", it should be enough."

Of course, the mouth still needs to be appeased.

"Ok!"

Bai nodded excitedly, and his whole body seemed to be refreshed.

This time it was fooled.

"Go and play, you can also learn to use the computer in the room when you are tired from playing, and you will use it in your future studies."

"Ok!"

Bai bouncing away, Hong looked at her cheerful back, straightened up, and tidied her clothes.

slip away.

Volume 11 Cats and Space: Chapter [-] Jealous

At the same time, under the core city thousands of kilometers away, another body of Hong stood in front of the door of Xier's room, unconsciously raising his hand.I don't know why, although there is no connection between the two bodies, Hong still subconsciously wants to organize her clothes.

Although Hong realized something was wrong as soon as he raised his hand, and quickly stopped the action, but Hong still felt that something was wrong—as a rigorous mechanical intelligence, there would be a phenomenon of "subconsciousness", even if it was just such a small action as tidying clothes, It is also extremely abnormal.

"What's wrong with me?"

Hong quickly started the self-inspection process, everything was normal and there was no change.

But the lack of change explained the problem even more - this was not the influence of the program, but some unknown changes in herself.

Hong decided to tell Xier about this, hoping that she would use the thinking of the Catus people to point out a way of thinking for herself, and see if she was influenced by the soul of that organic creature.The idea was good, but when she told Xier about it, the other party's reaction was far more intense than what Hong thought.

"You have other cats out there!"

The point of focus is also a bit off.

"You don't love me anymore!"

"It's not a cat, it's a fox."

"It's still a vixen!"

Xi'er didn't even have time to change her clothes, so she just stood up and said excitedly - good guy, it's only been a few days, Hong has another woman outside!

And secretly keep it outside without letting her know!

Before coming in, he subconsciously arranged his clothes so that she would not find out!

How is this any different from the old catus males who took a shower to cover up their perfume before going home? !

"And you haven't denied that you don't love me!"

"not me......"

Hong found that she really couldn't argue with anything, and there were so many slots that she didn't know how to start.

What should we do at this time?Facing the eldest daughter who is worried about being separated from her mother's love by other children, what should I say to calm my emotions?

Hong quickly looked up the information.

"Woo woo woo, you don't love me anymore, why don't you hug me quickly."

Xi'er pretended to cry a few times in a voice full of hypocrisy, but found that Hong didn't respond, so she opened her fingers and said in a tone of hatred.

"Oh oh oh." Hong hurried over, squatted down, hugged Xi'er lightly, and argued, "How can I not love you, even if I don't love myself, I will always love you."

"Do not."

She was not happy about it.

"You have to love me as well as yourself, understand?"

"clear."

Xi'er took a deep breath into Hong's arms, and then let go of her hand - although she knew that Hong must be her favorite, she just faked crying just to cheat and hug her, but it was always exciting to get a promise. happy.

"Okay, now you tell me about those Jeffrey... pups."

She emphasized the word "cub"—she really thought of herself as a mother, right?Xi'er is a little worried about this. This machine intelligence regards itself as a mother, and she doesn't want to be a daughter.

She wanted something a little more special.

"Red's idea is..."

After rambling on for half an hour, Hong finally explained the cause and effect completely.

"Damn it all!"

Xier slapped the table and stood up, speaking loudly.

At this time, she couldn't care less about daughters or cubs. Xi'er, who used to live in the highly civilized society of Catus, couldn't accept that in the interstellar age, there was still such backwardness and barbarism. Wanton enslavement of the same race, and even belittle them as inferior creatures.

This anger reached its peak after Hong showed her a few photos of the scene.
