Something's wrong, they're not NPCs?

"No, what kind of image am I?"

Su Ming was puzzled.

Where did this rumor come from?

Do you think you are a foot fetishist?

That's bullshit. It's obvious that they should control everything that is easy to control. Can we treat everyone equally?

"Wait a minute?"

"Brother-in-law, mind your own business!"

An Xiaoxi couldn't stand it anymore.

"Brother-in-law, just consider whether you are comfortable or not, don't worry about anything else!"

"..."

"Ah... it's all my brother-in-law's fault. He said something weird again... but that's what I meant! Girls have their own ideas, so don't ask too many questions."

"certainly not!"

Wait a moment.

What will happen if this trend continues?

12 month 8 day.

late at night.

Su Ming was still very interested in drones. But the other party stood him up, and after the last siege, he felt it was not a good idea to take An Xiaoxi out for a stroll.

So, it’s best to find a secluded place nearby.

Then you can go out and investigate.

"..."

"Brother-in-law, is that a human?"

But after just two steps out, he saw a figure.

No flashlight was turned on. The clothes I wore almost blended into the environment.

"Go back to the house."

"..."

An Xiaoxi was only a beat late and immediately trotted back with her backpack.

Only Su Ming was left, summoning the Blade of Philosophy and standing there waiting.

Getting closer.

Is she a woman? Although she is tightly covered in clothes, her curves are clearly feminine. She is wearing long boots. A black robe that blends in with the night. Isn't it a bit thin?

In hand...

Is it a gun?

He stood still again, and seemed to deliberately raise the gun in his hand and shake it. He put it behind his back, deliberately letting Su Ming see it clearly.

"..."

Only ten meters away from Su Ming, she took off her hood and completely revealed her face.

Why does it look so familiar?

"Hello."

"……Night?"

"Night?"

wrong.

No.

Xia Ye is not that tall and his figure is not that balanced.

The person in front of me is more like a mature version of Xia Ye, or a twin sister. The blue eyes always seem a little detached.

"The database shows that you have the same facial features and irises as the founder of Syyx."

"..."

Not a human?

It is impossible for human eyes to glow for no reason.

"Excuse me, could you please extend your right hand?"

"?"

"To further verify your identity, please allow 0072x to take a tissue sample from you."

"..."

He handed her his right hand. Her hand was very cold, completely devoid of human body temperature. But it was quite soft.

I don't know how she did it. I just held my hand and felt the needle prick my palm.

"Verification passed."

"Although 0072x is surprised why the master is here, you are undoubtedly my master."

12 month 9 day.

early morning.

I didn't go to a new place and still stayed in the somewhat crooked and twisted building.

It was probably originally a place where junk was piled up. It was very messy. Only the place that Su Ming and An Xiaoxi had cleaned up could be considered a place to live.

"Unfortunately, I am not the robot that the master is talking about."

"To be precise, I should be a bionic man."

"..."

An Xiaoxi was guarding her bag and was stunned as she listened.

"In 2030, Syyx will establish a new biological laboratory."

"And I am the product of countless efforts made by the management."

"..."

"Brother-in-law, Syyx Company... is owned by brother-in-law?"

"..."

"Oh, this person calls the master brother-in-law, then you should be the master's sister-in-law."

"Hello, please call me 0072x or any code name allowed by the master."

"..."

An Xiaoxi was a little at a loss and looked at Su Ming unconsciously.

"Clap."

Su Ming lit a cigarette and took a deep breath.

Staring at the figure in front of him, whose posture was impeccable and upright.

No matter how you look at it, you can still see the shadow of Xia Ye. After taking off the black robe, it is easy to tell that she is really only wearing the robe. There is nothing underneath.

Not a robot.

It was the same color as human skin, even whiter than expected. The gun he carried was different from any that Su Ming had ever seen, a bit like the laser gun in a science fiction movie.

"Master, this is an improved version of the SKR. It can fire 1500w joules of energy at a time, with an effective range of 100 meters."

She seemed to notice that Su Ming was looking at the gun, so she took it off and placed it in front of Su Ming.

“Is this also a product of the company?”

"Yes, according to the database, the first version of the SKR improved version was released in 2051, and the improved version was released in 2053. In 2055, it was officially acquired by the Snow Country and adopted a cooperative supply model."

"..."

Su Ming paused, then looked at her, "Let's not talk about your identity for now. You should know what happened in this place, right?"

"With unpredictable climate changes, human survival is extremely low."

"There is biological activity not recorded in the database. The largest single energy fluctuation exceeds 100 billion joules."

"..."

Her voice sounds no different from that of a normal person, except that her tone is always neutral.

"Conclusion. 0072x cannot answer the master what happened in the area."

"Unfortunately, 0072x has been staying in the hibernation chamber until the nutrient supply in the chamber fails and the body automatically revives."

“唯一能告知主人的，只有0072x自带记录功能记载，在2067年1月1日出现过未知能量波动。威力除去0072x优质的产品以外，预计全球99.99%的设备以及生命都将在瞬间遭受毁灭性打击。”

"The energy fluctuation route is inferred as follows."

She stared at the wall. She didn't see the projection light, but the picture had already appeared on the wall.

Topographic map.

Continue all the way to the seaside.

"The new district of Sea Island City?"

That place should have disappeared in reality, but it reappeared on the roadmap.

"Master, do you want to know about the new district of Haidao City? The construction of Haidao City New District will start in 2033 and be completed in 2041. The project is jointly undertaken by Syyx Engineering and Snow Country Construction Bureau 6820. The slogan is to build the world's first and only floating city on the sea. The total investment in the bidding is billion US dollars."

"..."

An Xiaoxi was obviously shaken, and her eyes were fixed on Su Ming.

Sea Island City was an experience she would never forget.

"call."

Su Ming took a deep breath.

Her mind was a little confused. According to her, she was able to survive because her physical fitness was probably the best in the world, and she was in an equally top-notch hibernation chamber.

The purpose of creating her...

"Provide security, maintenance, repair, administration, database query and other duties."

"In an emergency, 0072x will prioritize the safety of its master and enter combat readiness mode. In the absence of instructions, unless it is persecuted for violating the laws of the Snow Country, 0072x will enter low-power cruise mode and only conduct legitimate defense within limits until it finds its master."

"..."

What strength does she have?

"According to the experimental records in the database, 0072x has ten times the speed and ten times the strength of the top athletes in the Snow Country when unarmed. When fully armed without rules, it is enough to carry out most assassination missions."

"..."

Incidentally.

The drone was originally broken, but she repaired it and charged it for use.

She came so slowly because she needed to avoid things in the fog to prevent any accidents.

"Master, the current environmental safety factor is extremely low. It is recommended that you, your sister-in-law, and 0072x go to the underground laboratory."

"..."

Su Ming took another puff of the cigarette and exhaled the smoke.

The more I looked at her face, the more puzzled I became.

In 2067, what exactly caused the company's development direction to become like this? She must have been developed for more than just maintenance and management.

"My clothes fell off..."

"Ok?"
