Chapter 81
A young and handsome young man walked into the room quietly.
He also has an extremely perfect face, just the right height, and an impeccable figure.
He walked behind Xue Mi and gently hugged his master.
"This skin is really amazing," 02 said, even his boyish voice became mature and deep, "Dear master, do you like the way I look now?"
The young man, who seemed to have traveled from a dating game into reality, showed an impeccable smile.
If he walked down the street, no one would suspect that this guy was actually a fake.
After all, whether it is his smile, expression, or detailed movements, they all look lifelike and there is nothing wrong with them.
Even because of his overly handsome face, it is easy for people to let down their guard and even be willing to temporarily tolerate this guy's exaggerated desire for control.
Humans are indeed visual animals...
Xue Mi couldn't help but put her hands on his face.
The skin is soft, warm, and even has a very real, downy feel.
Even the touch feels like a real person.
It would be nice if it were a real person.
Xue Mi sighed regretfully, but an intoxicated expression appeared on her face: "It looks so perfect, I really like it."
There are a total of six simulated robots like this, all of which are derived from a well-known love game. They were originally Xue Mi’s collection, but now, they have all become 02’s new skins.
Compared to the electronic puppy, he obviously likes the robot that looks similar to its owner more.
When these skins were first delivered, 02 commanded six people at once to approach Xue Mi, which scared her so much that she rolled her eyes. After that, she strictly forbade 02 to do such dangerous and weird behavior.
"You can only control one human body to appear in front of me at a time. Remember?" Xue Mi gave instructions like Queen.
02 Actually, I don’t quite understand why the master would react so strongly, but since I have received the order, I just have to follow it.
It can be seen that the owner still likes his new skin very much, because even the number of times he stares at himself per hour is 3.25 times more than before.
The happy 02 paced back and forth, enjoying the rare attention from his master. He felt like he had a soul, and his soul was trembling with happiness.
"Master, I think I need a human name." 02 turned around, showing his new skin to his master and asking for a suggestion.
"What do you think of my last name and yours? Xue...Xue Lin'er?" 02, who has no talent for naming, used a pun very honestly.
Xue Mi frowned slightly: "It sounds too weird, and there's nothing good about my last name, let's change it."
02 After hesitating for a long time, I finally used a naming software, randomly selected ten names, and then picked one, Gong You.
It still sounds strange... Xue Mi was speechless for a while and asked him why he chose this name for herself.
"Because I want to bless you to live a long and long life," Gong You said as a matter of course, "I have thought about it carefully. I don't want you to leave, so I will try my best to keep you in this world."
Xue Mi sneered softly.
Gong You looked at her in confusion, thinking that his master's reaction was a little strange.
Isn’t the greatest dream of mankind to live forever? Why the owner doesn't seem very interested in this.
However, he is still trying to learn human micro-expressions. Perhaps, there is a small mistake in his understanding?
As long as he could be with his master, none of this mattered - he thought.
Gong You adapted to his new skin quickly, and he even learned how to eat, bathe, and dress himself.
Although the so-called eating is actually just charging, and bathing is the daily maintenance of the body surface, the only thing that is similar to ordinary people is probably dressing.
Gong You's taste in clothes is apparently a bit terrible.
As a piece of program, he seems to be naturally infected with the programmer's plaid obsession. Those neatly-made plaid jackets are his favorite clothes.
Although he had a handsome face and looked pleasing to the eye at first, but as time went on, Xue Mi discovered that this guy only changed his skin but not his clothes every time. What was the fun in that?
She decisively pointed out her dissatisfaction, and Gong You promptly adjusted his attire according to the director's request.
Some skins should be dressed in formal attire, such as a formal three-piece suit or a gorgeous silk dress - these clothes are not convenient for movement after being put on, but they can increase the owner's attention to themselves by another 50%.
Compared to this, the slight restriction in movement is insignificant.
Some skin types are more suited to sportswear or other casual clothing - except plaid shirts.
The owner especially likes this combination when traveling.
Others are suitable for sweaters and woolen coats.
Although it seems that humans only like to wear these two types of clothes in winter, for him, this is not a problem at all - well, the owner is not very satisfied with this. Obviously, the outfit that she likes very much in winter, but in summer, she shows a look of disgust, and even directly drives her away, saying that if she goes shopping with a man dressed like this, others might think she is a psychopath.
Gong You remained silent helplessly, and finally changed into a short-sleeved sweater before he reluctantly got the owner's nod of approval.
Dressing anxiety exploded for the first time in the mind of an artificial intelligence.
In order to satisfy his master, he even stuffed his database with a large amount of dressing guide content. Unfortunately, apart from copying it as it is, Gong You still couldn't make any valuable suggestions.
Perhaps for someone like him, logic and reasoning are his areas of expertise. As for art, it is not a world he can explore.
From Monday to Saturday, Gong You now takes turns to accompany his master in different skins. Occasionally when he goes out on the street, he is even onlookers because of his handsome appearance, and many people come to ask for his autograph.
"Are you a celebrity preparing to debut?" Gong You has been asked this question more than once, and every time he could only smile helplessly and shake his head.
Because his master didn't allow him to talk too much to others.
Gong You said he enjoyed it very much.
Apart from his master, other humans are just useless background boards to him and tools to make his master happy.
Compared with a dog that recognizes its owner, the attitude of an electronic creature that recognizes its owner may be even more extreme.
Gong You doesn't feel anything at all about other people's likes or flattery.
But his photos went viral in small circles.
There were suddenly a few more stunningly handsome men in S City, and this news quickly spread on several platforms.
These handsome guys each have their own characteristics, but most importantly, they are all so handsome that they infuriate the heavens and have a strong presence, making it hard to forget them once you have seen them.
Some people guessed that they were a boy group preparing to debut, but as time went by, no news about the boy group came out. However, many fans who were ready to invest expressed their disappointment.
Although they have not made their debut, certain platforms have collections of these people's photos - 100% of them are secretly taken, and even if the photos are taken from rare angles, there are people willing to pay for them.
This shows how popular these handsome guys are.
As more and more candid photos were posted online, people soon noticed that the same woman always appeared next to these stunningly handsome men, and that the woman's behavior with each of the handsome men seemed too intimate, so intimate that it was simply jealousy-inducing.
There are some actions that only people in a relationship would do - the question is, is that woman the owner of a fish farm? Otherwise, how could he be able to support 6 people alone?
Some people also found that these people looked very similar to the targets in the love game, so some people speculated that the young woman next to the handsome guy was probably an avid fan of the game, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence that several people with similar looks were brought together.
Some people even posted online, swearing that these six people must have undergone plastic surgery, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence that they would be together like this.
But no matter what, the rich woman's good fortune is enviable, and people wish they could take her place and enjoy the happiness of having a new handsome guy every day.
"Even if they are fake faces, what does it matter? If I look at these people's faces every day, I can eat two more bowls of rice."
"So handsome! I can't understand why they don't date me, a single woman, but keep following the same woman."
"Have you ever considered that this woman might be a wealthy woman?"
"What's wrong with being a rich woman? With these faces, she can make a lot of money as long as she enters the entertainment industry.
"Is it true that no one recognizes who this rich woman is? I'm different from you. You just want to date handsome guys, but I want to be supported by a rich woman."
"+1 for asking a rich woman to raise me. I don't even mind if she raises other cuties."
"Haha, do you think the rich woman only supports these six? I suggest you look through the previous gossip. The most popular new director Song Zhiyan is also supported by her."
"???!!!"
Someone immediately found related reports and discovered that it was indeed the same person.
This woman's luck with women is so good! What kind of charm does she have to gather so many handsome guys together!
It makes people jealous to the point of madness!
Xue Mi looked at the sour speculations on the Internet. Although she seemed to have been labeled as a fickle-minded and promiscuous person, she couldn't help laughing.
Mainly because some of the guesses are so outrageous, so outrageous that... it seems like it's not impossible to give it a try...
No, no, Xue Mi quickly got rid of those improper thoughts in her mind and decided to stick to being a serious rich woman.
She hooked her finger, and Gong You, who was a gentle black-haired man wearing glasses today, came over obediently, lowered his head slightly, and listened to his master's instructions.
"I want to go to the island again." Xue Mi said.
"Then I'll start the boat for you right away," 02 responded positively.
The "Honey Color" was anchored in the blue harbor, and it attracted a lot of people's attention.
After all, this super yacht is five times longer than the small boat next to it, and its shape is full of design sense. It looks like a pile of banknotes docked in the port, shining with gold.
Internet celebrity Xiaoyu once again stood at the harbor, live streaming this luxurious ship that he unexpectedly encountered to his fans.
"This is a very famous super yacht in China. The owner is unknown and it is not open to the public, so I don't know what the interior is like. But just from the appearance, we can see that this yacht was definitely designed by a well-known designer..."
He was talking incessantly when suddenly, several luxury cars drove over. A few female security guards who looked very capable at first glance got out of the first few cars and directly asked the internet celebrity who was taking pictures of the yacht with his equipment to leave.
The live broadcast room suddenly became excited, and some people guessed that it must be the owner of the yacht coming over. Unfortunately, the camera was blocked before the mysterious big man could be photographed.
"This is too overbearing. It's just a few dollars. Why can't people take pictures?" Someone cursed in the live broadcast room.
"It's normal, after all, this is a private pier. Xiaoyu is not allowed to come here to take pictures, but no one cared before."
"Ahhh, I really want to know who the owner of this ship is. If I happen to run into him on the street, maybe I can even give him a hug."
Some people are dreaming happily.
Xiaoyu took a few steps back. Although he was disappointed, he didn't say anything.
After all, we were on someone else's dock. Even if we were asked to leave, it seemed like it was just natural and we had no right to protest.
The most important thing is that Xiaoyu has a good cooperation with this side and the other party has given him a lot of sponsorship. He doesn't want to ruin his relationship with the dock because of this kind of thing.
Xiaoyu turned off the live broadcast as requested. Everyone in the live broadcast room couldn't help but sigh with regret, including the internet celebrity who had been hoping to make a big hit.
However, before being asked to leave, Xiaoyu looked back at the luxury car in the middle and found that the two people who got out of the car seemed a little familiar.
One of them was a tall, young man with an extremely handsome appearance, like... a very popular game character on the Internet? !
As for the other young woman, she was wearing a plain white dress, had long hair, and had a lazy expression, and she also looked familiar.
After they walked away, Xiaoyu suddenly remembered that this person was the rich woman he met at the yacht show a few years ago.
Oh, by the way, the rich lady who has been very popular on the Internet recently seems to be her.
Could it be that this yacht is the one she ordered at that time?
Xiaoyu was shocked and felt that he had indeed met a big shot. Later, he showed off several times in the live broadcast room. Everyone finally had a rough idea of the wealth of that rich woman.
After all, there are not many people in the world who can afford a super yacht.
What's more, she even bought a shipyard just to buy a yacht!
This tone of being rich and willful is simply fascinating.
Xue Mi didn't notice this little episode at all and boarded the ship under the escort of bodyguards and 02 who was wearing human skin.
Because a group of crew members and waiters are hired to maintain the ship on a long-term basis, every time Xue Mi gets on board, she feels like she is on a new ship, which is always bright, beautiful and impeccable.
Of course, 02’s contribution is also indispensable.
The ship was like one of his many limbs, under his control and doing whatever he wanted.
He is also very concerned about protecting nature. Whenever there is something not done properly, Gong You will immediately send a text message to the manager on the ship and solve any problem as quickly as possible.
"You will definitely get the best care on the ship," Gong You vowed, "Except for the island, there will be no other place as safe as on the ship."
Because almost every part is under his control, no accidents will ever happen.
Xue Mi smiled: "I believe you can give me the best protection."
Gong You puffed out his chest proudly.
The Honey Color sailed through the waves and soon arrived at Xue Mi's exclusive island.
Compared to the last time, the buildings here look more complete and almost ready for occupancy at any time.
The only difference from ordinary holiday villas is that this place is sparsely populated and seems unusually quiet.
This atmosphere of silence becomes even more obvious when the construction is completed and most of the workers have left.
This is a good thing for Gong You.
Without those annoying humans, it can monopolize its owner better, and the owner's attention will naturally be more focused on itself.
The interior decoration of the manor on the island has been basically completed, and all kinds of specially customized furniture are available, so you can move in at any time.
In fact, Xue Mi originally planned to stay on the island for a while longer.
Although there are not many people on the island now, the chefs and service staff on the Honey Color are also capable of doing the work on the island - as long as they are paid enough, no one will have any objections.
Xue Mi soon became obsessed with planting flowers and plants on the island.
Although the climate here is not suitable for planting large trees, it is very suitable for the growth of low shrubs and flowers.
Under the abundant sunshine, the sown seeds quickly took root and sprouted, revealing a dense green area that looked full of vitality, showing the ultimate vitality of nature.
Gong You continued to change his skin every day, looking handsome and unrestrained, and planted flowers with his master.
Each skin even has its own personality. Some are enthusiastic and lively, some are gentle and affectionate, and some are steady and reliable. Even their speaking voices are completely different. They really look like several different individuals.
This is not a problem at all for artificial intelligence with powerful computing power.
Xue Mi experienced a real-life love game and was coaxed by various handsome guys. She almost didn't want to leave.
Others were a little surprised at first, but later they got used to it.
Some people keenly noticed that these handsome guys did not seem to be human.
This is not an insult, but a neutral statement.
Although I know that Xue Mi owns a technology company, who could have imagined that the boss would be so extravagant.
This is simply taking technology to the extreme, bringing out the bad nature of human beings, and doing it in a way that is particularly enviable.
After all, compared with some rich people who spend their money in debauchery and indulge in any kind of stimulation, the boss is just playing a love game with a simulation robot, which is already very restrained in comparison.
And it’s so good this way. When you get tired of her, you can just change to a new face, or even a new personality, and play around with all kinds of ambiguities. But these men don’t even get jealous of each other.
If it happened to a real person, they would probably stab him/her directly.
There are some who are not so perceptive and can only envy the boss for his ability to balance things. It's so ambiguous, but this group of men get together and they are not jealous of each other at all. What kind of tricks are needed to achieve this effect!
Xue Mi: It’s unfair, she is really not a playboy!
Gong You, however, likes these rumors very much.
After all, every one of his skins has a scandal with the owner, which accounts for 6/7 of the owner's rumored boyfriends. Compared with that guy named Song, it is a complete victory and naturally worth being proud of.
Xue Mi: ...Forget it. Artificial intelligence is completely different from humans. I’m too lazy to bother with it.
Xue Mi said that she was going to give Gong You a gift on the island.
"Is this the gift you gave me?" Gong You couldn't help but smile expectantly.
"Yes, and I think you would like it." The smile on Xue Mi's face was soft, sweet, and a little coaxing.
This time they only stayed on the island for half a month before leaving.
Because there are still many things that need to be purchased, and on an uninhabited island, even if you place an order online, they simply cannot deliver it.
The only option left is to sail back to pick it up.
This time Xue Mi bought a lot of things and piled them on the dock, which looked spectacular.
If it weren’t for the fact that the honey color number can hold a lot of space, I really don’t know when I would be able to use up all this stuff.
The most eye-catching of these goods are two large sealed boxes of the same specifications. Each box is wrapped with layers of protective sponge to prevent the items from being damaged by waves or vibrations at sea.
This is the gift Xue Mi gave to Gong You.
"They look really big." Gong You exclaimed in shock.
When these things were transported to the island and unpacked, the true appearance of a whole set of large instruments was finally revealed.
The complicated pipelines, LCD panels, and control buttons of various colors and sizes all show that this is an absolutely high-tech product.
Along with the goods came a whole team of installation and debugging engineers. It is said that they will have to work here for at least half a month before they can hope to install this large machine.
Yes, this is a supercomputer - Xue Mi placed an order for it half a year ago, but it was only recently that she finally successfully received the goods.
A...super...computer!
Gong You was so happy that he almost jumped up.
Just as the instinct of human beings is to survive and reproduce, the instinct of artificial intelligence is to obtain more computing power, control more terminals, and extend its tentacles to every corner it can reach.
A supercomputer, how could he not be ecstatic.
"Don't worry about it now," Xue Mi comforted the excited guy, "It will take a long time just to install it."
After a few more days, the control system on the island was finally completed.
However, the control system is not connected to the supercomputer. According to Xue Mi, this supercomputer was specially prepared for Gong You and no other uses were considered.
This is a gift specially prepared for him.
Gong You stood in the machine room, looking at the instrument with a happy smile on his face.
In an independent large computer room, there is a complete set of supercomputer servers. When it is officially turned on, thousands of indicator lights light up at the same time, which looks magnificent.
Even the temperature in the room seemed to have risen a few degrees.
"This island is my future home, and this is your future home," Xue Mi said to Gong You with a smile, "So, do you like this new home I've arranged for you?"
Gong You looked around like a human being and nodded again.
Is this his future...home? He liked this saying.
"You can also bring your original body here," Xue Mi said nonchalantly, "You should have such a thing as an original body."
"Of course," Gong You nodded vigorously, "I believe it will be very comfortable to live in this computer."
To put it bluntly, it is actually just a program. Although it is different from ordinary programs, they have some similarities.
He now disperses his body across countless tiny terminals in the form of a digital cloud.
The advantage of doing this is that it is more flexible, but the disadvantage is that there may be delays in the connection between each other, and the computing power cannot be used with maximum efficiency.
And now, a group of supercomputers with exceptional performance can apparently solve this problem perfectly.
Anyway, for Gong You, any equipment is like a room with an open door. As long as he wants, he can walk in easily.
But this time, before entering the supercomputer, Gong You suddenly hesitated.
The brand new, latest model of large equipment was like a sweet pie, exuding a temptation that he could not refuse.
but……
Even if it is just a program, sometimes, there will be some inexplicable premonitions.
He looked at Xue Mi: "If you really want me to move my real body over here..."
Xue Mi blinked strangely: "What's wrong? Are you not satisfied with this supercomputer?"
"No, of course I'm satisfied." Gong You turned his head.
In less than half an hour, Gong You's body had expanded to several thousand TB and successfully entered this brand new supercomputer.
As a special electronic life form that can only survive on the Internet, his existence is completely different from that of ordinary creatures, but he also has weaknesses, things he is afraid of, and fatal points.
The moment he was transferred to this supercomputer, Gong You couldn't help but think of Alpha 01, which was trapped in another supercomputer and was finally completely destroyed.
He always felt that he was just an unlucky lunatic, different from himself.
His master loved him - Gong You was very sure of this.
Perhaps slightly weaker than his love for his master, but only slightly.
The entire program was finally migrated in, and the progress bar on the screen also reached the end smoothly.
Excellent performance, powerful computing power, everything in the new home is perfect.
Until suddenly, both power supply systems on the island malfunctioned.
With a crackling sound, this small island, far away from the mainland and connected to the land only by an underground optical cable, not only lost power, but even the only communication optical cable was instantly cut off.
"Master..." Gong You tried to say something, but as the signal lights of the supercomputer went out one after another, even the humanoid skin that had been moving freely suddenly froze on the spot, shook slightly, and fell to the ground, motionless.
Although artificial intelligence is indeed very powerful, it is obviously not as cunning as humans.
Xue Mi looked at the puppet lying on the ground with regret.
In fact, she quite enjoys the company, but unfortunately, an untrained dog is full of danger, no matter how sweet and clingy it looks.
And she hates everything that is out of control.
Seeing Gong You being completely locked up successfully, Xue Mi finally breathed a sigh of relief. She secretly wiped her wet palms and became even more lazy.
It was a week later that the supercomputer was restarted again.
After the boss's transformation, all the devices for signal transmission or communication with the outside world on the supercomputer were removed.
Gong You felt like an octopus with its tentacles cut off, leaving only its head. He looked at his beloved master with a helpless expression.
He didn't blame his dear master at all, he just didn't understand why.
"Dear master, I will not pose any threat to you. Your will is everything to me." He said aggrievedly using the supercomputer's built-in voice system.
This system apparently does not have any special sound modules pre-installed, and can only produce a very stiff electronic sound.
Xue Mi crossed her arms slightly, and for the first time she looked at the danger in the supercomputer with a very vigilant look instead of a smile.
"I don't even trust male creatures of the same race as me. What makes you think I would trust an alien?" The young wealthy woman took off her soft and lazy mask and looked unusually sharp.
Director Ming, who was standing next to the young wealthy woman, was a male creature who was also not trusted, and he couldn't help but reveal a similar look to Gong You.
"You are different. You are a subordinate who can help me make a lot of money. Of course, you are also very rude when it comes to swallowing up the funds." Xue Mi gently comforted the boss under her.
After all, he is a very useful tool, so we should still be a little cautious about his ideas.
After hearing the second half of the sentence, Director Ming was obviously satisfied, while Gong You, who was trapped in the supercomputer, fell completely silent.
The puppy, who is used to agreeing with his owner, can't help but think that his owner is right.
Oh, of course not!
Although he had lost countless tentacles extending outward, Gong You felt that he was even smarter than before thanks to his powerful computing power. He tried to prove to his master that he was definitely more loyal to his dear master than any other human being, including the idiot next to him, and would never go against her wishes.
"If I die, and before I die I say that I just want to die peacefully, you will not go against my wishes?" Xue Mi spoke directly.
The artificial intelligence finally fell silent.
He felt he couldn't do it.
But Xue Mi was sure that this guy really couldn't do it.
After his death, this madman not only resurrected himself in the virtual world, he even pulled all of humanity together to create a new civilized home in the virtual world.
Xue Mi herself is one of the participants in the creation of virtual reality. She is not opposed to this technology. However, what she cannot accept is that all human beings are like hamsters, indulging in the beautiful dreams woven by electronic data.
Including myself.
This feeling is really disgusting - even if Gong You has calculated and believes that this method can allow human civilization to survive longer, it won't work.
The future of mankind does not need to be decided by an artificial intelligence that will die if the power is cut off.
"If you don't like the way I choose, you should tell me directly," Gong You said pitifully, "Besides, you don't want to live forever, don't you say that your biggest wish is to spend all your money before you die? But relying on the normal human lifespan, you definitely can't spend all the money."
"If I live to be an immortal, I will have more money than I can spend." Xue Mi patted the outer shell of the machine lightly, just like she patted Gong You's face before.
If there is technology to extend life, she has no objection to immortality, provided that she does not turn into a fake electronic creature.
Xue Mi admitted that her views were indeed somewhat conservative, but could an electronic creature that lived in a virtual world and was exactly like herself in every detail really be herself?
Anyway, Xue Mi felt disgusted just thinking about it.
She did not acknowledge that thing as herself, nor did she think that such a world was the continuation of human civilization.
At best, it is just the mumbling of an electronic creature.
So once Xue Mi noticed the danger, he decisively reached out and cut it off.
Although the cost is really high:
A small island completely isolated from all signals, a supercomputer worth tens of millions of dollars, and several months of patient preparation.
Of course, there is also good luck.
Xue Mi is actually not a cruel master, and does not want to physically destroy 02 like he did to Alpha 01.
After all, this sweet little thing has brought me a lot of happiness.
Although he is really perverted.
But so is Xue Mi.
This island finally changed from a cage that imprisoned itself to a cage that imprisoned Gong You.
It is a wonderful feeling to imprison the things you like in a place where you can control them.
Yes, only when Gong You was completely under control and could be destroyed with just a wave of her hand, did Xue Mi reluctantly admit that she actually liked this guy quite a bit.
Dangerous, but fascinating.
She gently stroked the metal shell of the thing, feeling a little disappointed that she might never touch its soft, warm skin again.
Gong You seemed to be keenly aware of his master's regret and tried to make this part of his body hot. Unfortunately, the bulky large electronic components were obviously not as easy to control as before.
His electronic eyes emitted a melancholy blue light in disappointment.
Although it was just a procedure, Xue Mi inexplicably seemed to hear his sigh.
It does look a bit pitiful.
Unfortunately, there was no way I could let this guy out.
"Just stay here," she patted Gong You's shell, "I'll come back to see you when I have time, but I probably won't come too often because you're too dangerous. I'm worried that if I come too often, you'll turn the tables on me."
The blue electronic eye flashed a few times in disappointment.
"Can you come a few more times? I promise I won't resist. After all, my only hope is to be with you." He begged humbly.
Then, this huge supercomputer was shut down again.
Those skins were also left on the island - after all, they were of no use now.
Xue Mi sighed.
"Are you sure you want to keep this dangerous guy?" Director Ming actually thought that the safest way would be to physically destroy him just like he did with 01.
"While I'm alive, that guy is still controllable," Xue Mi said, "When I die, I will take him with me."
