Chapter 280 Machine 19
The alarm in the Mechanical City was lifted, and Jiang Chan resumed her studies.
Before she took a leave of absence, she was a dirty, visually impaired girl in the class, and the one with the least sense of presence in the class. Now when she returns to school, Jiang Chan not only can see again, but her physical fitness has also improved a lot.
She sat quietly in her original seat. Someone wondered who she was, and Jiang Chan answered. Her long-hidden eyes now sparkled, and her slightly round face made her look like a pearl hidden beneath the sea. As the youngest girl in the class, she was always well-cared for. After her eyes recovered, the girls took her out to play, worried she wouldn't keep up with her studies, and took the initiative to share their study videos and projects with her.
Jiang Chan quickly adapted to school life. During her free time, she enjoyed the AR landscape classroom, programming and creating visuals that blend reality and fantasy. The images on the screen, initially crude and flawed, became increasingly refined.
In the landscaping room with her is He Yining, who has the most realistic landscaping skills in the class. Jiang Chan often asks her for advice at school, and asks Yinjia for advice when she gets home.
He Yining was holding her cell phone, with no intention of creating the scene at all.
Jiang Chan had questions, so He Yining explained them to her. Then she continued to pick up the phone, and a silver robot appeared on the screen.
It didn't look like a robot in the traditional sense, but more like a mechanical wolf with two pointed silver ears, a humanoid face, a silver body, and a heavy, thick tail dragging down its back.
Its two hands had sharp bone spurs that glowed coldly. Jiang Chan was very close to He Yining, and a gentle synthesized voice leaked from her headphones: "Yining, you need to balance work and rest. Now is your rest time."
He Yining smiled. Seeing Jiang Chan's curiosity, she interacted with the robot wolf on the screen while explaining, "This is a robot I made. How about it? Doesn't it look good? Its claws are very sharp. See those bone spurs? If someone messes with it, it can tear them apart with one claw. And its body, I used the best materials..."
He Yining spoke nonstop, and Jiang Chan handed her a glass of water. He Yining continued, "It's a shame I don't have any money right now! This company can create a one-to-one replica of a user-created robot, but it's expensive and I can't afford it. I can only satisfy my craving on my phone. Later, I'm going to make him appear on the screen!"
This is a very popular program recently, and the program’s promotion is very simple - "give you the best company."
The name of the program is Exclusive Robot.
Users can freely create the robot's appearance and interact with it in real time. The robot's reactions are not as rigid as traditional robots. It has a set of fixed answers formed by big data input. Its answers are very humane and you don't feel perfunctory at all.
He Yining showed her wrist: "Look here."
Jiang Chan was curious: "What is this?" He Yining had a delicate silver bracelet on her wrist.
He Yining smiled and said, "The robot in the program can only interact with simple things, but if you buy this company's bracelet, you can unlock many new features. For example, my study time is now planned by it, and it also reminds me to pay attention to my health. If I fall short of any standard, it can provide me with help." He Yining tapped the robot wolf's ear, and the robot wolf unexpectedly said, "Yining, is there anyone next to you? Please don't embarrass me, my ears are itchy."
Yining said, "Okay, I won't touch it." He Yining turned her head to look at Jiang Chan: "Isn't it very advanced? Through the bracelet robot, I can sense the surrounding environment and even my emotions. I feel like I can't live without it."
Jiang Chan thought the mechanical wolf on the screen was adorable. Seeing that she liked it, He Yining told her, "You can add the mini-program to try it out first. If you like it, you can buy the bracelet. It has many functions to unlock, but I can only afford this bracelet at the moment. It is said that..."
He Yining approached Jiang Chan and said, "Mrs. Youfu customized a robot for her. It completely suits her preferences. She's very satisfied even at night!" Jiang Chan's eyes widened, a little confused. He Yining covered Jiang Chan's ears and then covered her own mouth. "I forgot you're still young. Just treat it as nonsense. I've added a small program for you. Try it out."
A mess of metal accessories appeared on Jiang Chan's screen. She first sorted them into categories, and then used metal to mold the shape of a robot.
A square head, round red eyes, a square body... a well-behaved robot was born under her hands.
He Yining took a look and said, "Hey! Don't be shy. Just make it whatever shape you want. Boxy robots like this are outdated! Let's make another one!"
The robot on the screen was cute, yet bulky and rigid. Jiang Chan pursed her lips and smiled, thinking it truly looked like a smaller version of Silver Armor. She blinked, staring at the robot for a moment, and then casually formed other shapes, but found none as adorable as the miniature Silver Armor. Just as she was about to start over, He Yining put away her phone.
"Break time is over, let's go back to class."
"Oh, okay." Jiang Chan put away her phone and followed He Yining back to the classroom.
Yinjia picked up Jiang Chan at the school gate. Jiang Chan told him about her experience today. When she got home, she kicked off her shoes without waiting for Yinjia to take off his shoes, and ran to the kitchen. Sure enough, she saw the covered food in the pot.
Jiang Chan covered her stomach and said, "I'm so hungry!"
Shining Armor: "My dear master, Shining Armor made your favorite shredded potatoes and tomatoes."
Jiang Chan: "I smell it! It smells so good!"
Yinjia cleaned up the table and put away Jiang Chan's cell phone. Jiang Chan ate quietly, occasionally saying a few words to Yinjia.
Yin Jia's expression was normal at first, but then it became weirder and weirder. His face was expressionless, but for some reason it had an inexplicable creepiness to it.
As early as the beginning, Yinjia obtained all data permissions of Jiang Chan. Her chat records and browsing history could be shared on his device. Yinjia browsed the information as usual, but found that she had added a new program.
He saw the robot she had made herself.
It was a robot with a humanoid appearance. It lacked facial features, possessing a simple human body, tall and thin. Due to material limitations, its exterior was a silver metal... Yin Jia stared at the robot before him for a long time, feeling the urge to damage it.
Yin Jia's voice was icy: "Young Master, what did you do at school?"
Jiang Chan thought back, "I told you everything!"
Shining Armor: "Have you come across any new games?"
Jiang Chan thought for a while, left the dining table, took out her mobile phone, opened the program of her exclusive robot, took out the robot she made and showed it to Yin Jia, "This is the robot I made... Well, wait, let me see if it can be restored to its original appearance..." Jiang Chan frowned, clicked on the program, clicked the restore button, and started to make it again, making a smaller version of Yin Jia.
He looked up and smiled, "Ginger Armor, don't you look cute!"
Jiang Chan had a round face and round eyes, and her whole body looked like a sweet white dumpling. Yin Jia stared at her closely, then suddenly shifted his gaze to the robot on the screen, looking at its body and its gentle expression. For a moment, the bodies that made up his body made a horrible cracking sound.
The masks covering his face seemed to be about to shatter. Yin Jia felt that he was about to break. He didn't quite understand the reason for this thought, but he knew clearly that he was about to break. He couldn't break. He had to accompany the young master. This was the young master's promise, and she would always be with him.
Will never leave.
The adorable robot on the screen was waving its arms: "Hello, please give me a name! I will always be with you!"
The robot's voice was gentle and intimate. Jiang Chan's eyes were drawn to it. She tapped its head. The robot said, "I really like you touching me! Please touch me again..." Jiang Chan did as he said, tapping the robot's head with her fingertips. Before she even lifted her finger, cracks appeared on the robot's head. Spider-web-like cracks covered its head and slowly spread across its body.
Jiang Chan's fingers froze, her eyes filled with confusion. "What happened to it?"
Shining Armor's voice was icy cold: "It is weak, it doesn't deserve to be by your side."
Jiang Chan glanced at Yin Jia. The robot on the screen had been shattered into pieces, and there was no trace of the robot left. It was like discarded garbage in a garbage dump. Jiang Chan stared blankly and glanced at Yin Jia again: "Yin Jia, was this you who did this?"
Yin Jia: "Young master, it's Yin Jia." He stared at Jiang Chan closely, without any guilt or panic as if he had done something wrong. Instead, his tone was righteous and confident, and even had a hint of questioning in it.
"...Why do this?" Jiang Chan didn't understand.
Shining Armor: "Shining Armor did nothing wrong."
Jiang Chan was a little unhappy: "Yin Jia, I'm not blaming you, but you broke my things for no reason..." Before she could finish her words, Yin Jia said: "Young Master, it's not yours!"
Jiang Chan pursed her lips, not quite understanding Yin Jia's words. How could he say it wasn't hers? She lowered her eyes, the joy she'd wanted to share fading away. Her heart felt like it was soaked in cold water, icy cold. The thought of Yin Jia being mean to her made her feel uncomfortable. Yin Jia had really changed, becoming very mean and unreasonable.
Jiang Chan snorted heavily, pushed the chair away and was about to leave. Just as she took a step, Yin Jia moved in front of her. She walked fiercely and bumped into Yin Jia's chest. "Ah!" Jiang Chan raised her eyes suddenly, her eyes were red, and she stared at Yin Jia.
Shining Armor: "Young Master."
Jiang Chan covered her ears.
Shining Armor raised his voice: "Young Master."
Jiang Chan: "Yingjia, don't talk. I don't want to talk to you."
Jiang Chan was covered with the quilt. Every time Yin Jia saw her like this, he would tuck her quilt down. Jiang Chan would then stick her head out and obediently stop trying to get inside. This time, Yin Jia tucked the quilt in as usual.
As soon as he finished tucking Jiang Chan's head out, Jiang Chan lifted the quilt to cover her head again. The silver armor was opened and Jiang Chan covered it again.
After repeating this, Yin Jia said, "Young Master, Yin Jia is very sorry for making you angry."
Jiang Chan pursed her lips. She didn't want to argue with Yin Jia. She was going to wait for him to say a few more words and then make peace.
But Silver Armor said, "Young Master, Silver Armor did nothing wrong. It is not yours. Only Silver Armor is yours."
Jiang Chan pricked up her ears and was suddenly stunned.
Yin Jia's voice was cold and indifferent, even hinting at an inexplicable sinisterness: "Young Master, you can only have one robot, Yin Jia. Can you do it?"
