Chapter 3 Chapter 3 The Social Animal Meets the Leader
Chen Run felt something was wrong when he heard this: "Director Lu, will that patient attack others?"
Lu Kuo paused, turned around and smiled in feigned confusion: "You mean...?"
Shen Run: "Biting and hitting people or something."
Lu Kuo breathed a sigh of relief, his tone calm, "Miss Shen, I promise you, He won't bite you or hit you." He changed the subject, "Your daily job is to take care of and accompany Him. I'll have the person in charge here communicate the specific details to you later."
Chen Run patted his chest and chuckled, "As long as you don't hit anyone, I'll be relieved. As for taking care of people, I'm good at it. I helped take care of my cousins when I was a child."
Her clueless and foolish look made Lu Kuo's remaining conscience feel uneasy. He laughed dryly and took her into the elevator to the third underground floor. Only then did Chen Run remember to ask, "Mr. Lu, what is the patient's name?"
Lu Kuo was silent for a moment, then he said, "Shuangliu, Chi Shuangliu."
The origin of this cool name is actually very funny, because the place where 001 was discovered is called Shuangliu County, and the person who discovered it is a minority with the surname Chi, so according to the naming standard for cultural relics, 001's full name is Chi Shuangliu - in other words, if the place where it was discovered was called Pugouzi County Dachui County, and the discoverer was surnamed Li or Wang, its current full name should be Li Pugouzi Wang Dachui.
Lu Kuo complained in his heart, trying to find a good mood.
Chen Run exclaimed, "What a coincidence! My grandmother's last name is also Chi."
Although the surname Chi is strange, it is not that rare. There is a minority ethnic group with this surname. Lu Kuo nodded casually and did not take this small coincidence to heart.
With a ding, the elevator door stopped.
There was only one room on the third underground floor, surrounded by electric fences and surveillance cameras. Lu Kuo and she put on protective clothing first. When they arrived at the door, he paused subtly before swiping the door open. He slightly turned sideways and motioned for Chen Run to go in with him.
What I saw was a large flat with four bedrooms and a living room. It was equipped with the most advanced smart devices, which were turned on 24 hours a day to ensure the cleanliness, tidiness and freshness of the entire house. Except for the lack of furniture, the layout was similar to that of a normal person's home.
The smart windows in the house thoughtfully simulate the outdoor scenery, so although the whole house is built in the basement, it looks spacious and bright, with excellent lighting on all sides.
Lu Kuo introduced them as he walked over. "This is where you'll be working and living from now on." He pointed casually at the first bedroom and said, "Of course, you can't officially move in until you pass your probation period. Right now, you can only stay here during working hours."
Shen Run's probation period is two months, which is also to take into account the adjustment period between her and 001.
Lu Kuo led her to the master bedroom at the end. He took a deep breath, opened the door, and leaned slightly to the side: "He is inside."
The lights in the bedroom were also intelligently adjusted. As the two entered, the light became increasingly brighter, allowing Chen Run to see the entire bedroom clearly.
In the middle was a large round bed with a very high-tech feel, with a thick cashmere carpet beside the bed. A figure had his back to them. He was wearing loose home clothes and sitting cross-legged on the edge of the bed. Although the figure was sitting on the ground, one could still see that his body proportions were perfect, and his legs were so long that even sitting cross-legged was a bit difficult.
From the back, he has broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and is obviously an adult man, but there are baby toys scattered all over the floor around him, from Lego blocks to Jurassic puzzles, and each toy is marked with the applicable age - ranging from 0 to 7 years old.
The man's slender jade-like fingers held a colorful ball, and he mechanically threw and caught it. It was no exaggeration to say that even Shen Run's nine-month-old nephew was better at playing than him. As for other more complicated building blocks and puzzles, he didn't even touch them.
Chen Run was stunned for a moment: "This..."
"There's something wrong with him here. It's different from normal people." Lu Kuo pointed to his head and said vaguely, "That's why I need you."
Shen Run had come across something similar when he was studying nursing, and he immediately understood - in this case, he either had dementia or was autistic with normal IQ but severe autism, and the toys on the ground were probably used to test his IQ and reaction.
She wanted to ask a few more questions, but then she thought about it. The leaders she had served in her previous company were even more stupid than idiots. The salary was not even a fraction of what the parasol company paid. For the treatment of the parasol company, she would accept it even if she was asked to serve a retard.
Chen Run was instantly relieved and controlled his mouth.
Lu Kuo was quite satisfied that she didn't ask too many questions. He raised his hand and pointed, "Go and talk to him, just have a brief conversation. If he doesn't have any objection, you'll have passed the trial period, and we can then enter the official probation period."
Shen Run scratched his head: "Director Lu, can he let anyone get close to him?"
Lu Kuo gestured for her to look at his wrist and said calmly, "Don't worry, he's wearing the company's latest electronic shackles. The instantaneous current released by them is so strong that even Godzilla can't withstand it. There's no need to worry about your safety."
Mr. Chi was wearing a pure black gadget on his right wrist that looked like a sports watch. Shen Run breathed a sigh of relief and straightened his clothes carefully.
No matter whether Mr. Chi has dementia or autism, he is her future leader. Her hopes for promotion and salary increase all rest with the man in front of her!
Chen Run, who was eager to make progress, had a fiery look in his eyes. He forced a flattering smile and walked over with small steps to bow ninety degrees. "Hello, Brother Chi, I'm Xiao Shen. I heard about your great name when I first came to the company. Seeing you today, I really think your reputation is well-deserved. From now on, I will definitely follow your pace, study hard, work hard, and strive to make contributions to the company!"
She had memorized these words from the book "Workplace Tricks". The book said that as long as she could memorize these words, she would be invincible in the workplace in the future!
After saying this, Shen Run felt quite good about himself, waiting for his leader to be completely charmed by him.
The 'leader' remained sitting on the ground, his head lowered, his slightly longer curly hair covering his eyebrows and eyes, making it difficult to see his expression.
Lu Kuo: “…”
What a mess.
Just as he was about to scold, he saw 001 straighten up and, unexpectedly, leaned in front of Chen Run.
His movements were so fast that before Shen Run could even react, he had broken through the safe distance, his cold breath flowing across her neck.
From a third-person perspective, the two people's postures were very ambiguous, with 001's entire face almost buried in her neck, like a pair of lovers embracing each other.
But Shen Run, the person involved, could not feel the slightest bit of ambiguity at all. The future leader was so oppressive that she dared not move, not even to look at him.
The tip of his nose slid faintly along her carotid artery. If he just opened his mouth, he could easily bite off her neck.
Like a wild beast, he kept sniffing, sniffing, sniffing...his sticky breath sprayed rapidly, continuously, and violently on her skin, as if trying to discern something from her breath.
Lu Kuo's face changed slightly, his finger was already on the electric shock button, hesitating whether to press it.
Fortunately, 001's abnormality lasted less than five seconds. He quickly returned to normal, sat back in his original position, and grabbed the colorful ball again. However, the action changed from throwing and catching to grasping, and the whole ball was firmly grasped in his hand.
——No one noticed this tiny change.
Chen Run was so frightened that he didn't even bother to look at what his future leader looked like. He ran back to Lu Kuo and said, "Boss Lu, this, this, this..."
Lu Kuo soothed him, "It's okay." He thought about 001's behavior and said, "He has a certain animalistic nature. He must be trying to identify your scent."
Chen Run was stunned for a moment and wanted to ask again, but Lu Kuo changed the subject again: "From what you just showed..." He glanced at 001 and said, "He shouldn't be opposed to you. I've already sent a message to Team Leader Bai. She's the main person in charge of this project. She will guide you through the process."
Before he finished speaking, Team Leader Bai walked in. Shen Run was interrupted and forgot what he wanted to ask just now. He was taken away by Team Leader Bai obediently.
After the room was completely quiet, Lu Kuo walked around the big bed and came in front of 001, staring at this beautiful face that could rival that of a god and was enough to drive hundreds of millions of people crazy.
——There were some things he hadn’t said to Shen Run just now.
001 doesn't have a low IQ or a problem with his brain; he simply doesn't have an IQ that is incomparable to a human.
The company has conducted a series of tests on him before. It can be said that apart from having a human appearance, he has no cognitive ability, language communication ability, ability to use tools and technology, moral emotions, self-awareness, independent thinking ability, etc. He is a pure beast with a very low IQ, just like the cats and dogs raised by humans, and there is no possibility of IQ evolution.
Only when he senses that others intend to kill him will he instinctively fight back with his ability that is so powerful that it seems to come from the universe. The rest of the time, he is almost harmless - this is why Lu Kuo is confident in launching plan B.
Compared to his father's destruction plan, what Lu Kuo wanted to do more was to tame him, to make him the sharpest knife in his hand and the most loyal dog by his side, so that he could use his terrifying ability that far exceeded the S-level.
As for Chenrun's role, it is probably similar to that of a human nanny, responsible for companionship, playing, feeding, etc., and when necessary, she is also needed to help him clean his body - in short, it is similar to a poop scooper.
——It can be said that her safety is based on the premise that 001 has no human intelligence and no ability to hold grudges. If 001 once had human consciousness, she would probably die more miserably than her seven predecessors.
Lu Kuo did this to allow him to slowly adapt to contact with humans. After he adapted, Lu Kuo would personally take over him and cultivate his loyalty.
Thousands of years ago, humans were able to successfully tame wolves into loyal dogs, so Lu Kuo could also successfully tame this monster.
Although the Sun Umbrella Company is well-known, it has been divided into several factions due to the addition of people with special abilities, not to mention the checks and balances and suppression from the government outside. As long as 001 is completely mastered, it is equivalent to holding nuclear deterrence, no, it is even more powerful than that.
Lu Kuo couldn't help but curl his lips.
His eyes swept across 001's face, which was so beautiful that it looked like a dream, and he thought maliciously that if 001 was conscious, he should be grateful to him. If he was wandering around like this, being molested and violated would be a small matter. He could not say what he would encounter - after all, as long as others did not want to kill him, he would not be aggressive at all.
Lu Kuo was stunned by his own thoughts.
He didn't know if it was because he was under too much pressure these days, but every time he got close to 001, he couldn't help but have some shocking evil thoughts, usually about death, violence and...sex.
But his orientation is obviously normal.
Fortunately, Lu Kuo had an extremely strong will. He immediately calmed down and left the house without hesitation.
"We should try to get Q and the others to find out what 001's ability is."
Lu Kuo left the basement while thinking.
The weather outside was changing, and now it was drizzling, and the view from the simulation window was getting dim.
In the fleeting light, 001's face reflected in the window gradually became blurred.
The corners of his lips curled up in a faint, ambiguous arc.
The arc was fleeting, as if it was just an illusion between light and shadow.
No one noticed.
