Chapter 157: Trolley Problem: Innate Boss Holy Body
Lin Xi was really stunned for a moment.
After understanding what Jessie White meant, Lin Xi smiled brightly:
"It's not time yet, baby."
Jessie White was rejected, but she wasn't discouraged. Her eyes lit up: "Then, when can I have a chance?"
Lin Xi looked up at the sky and wanted to slip away: "Maybe later."
Jessie licked her lips, and a fighting spirit inexplicably ignited in her heart.
Later—a word filled with allure. It could fill Jessie White with energy, just for Lin Xi's vague "maybe."
"I can go really, really hard, Eleven."
"If one day I can reach your standards, I would also like to work for you!"
Jessie White had no desire to be Lin Xi's friend. That overly sweet bond wasn't for her.
She just wanted to do something for her. As long as she could be used by her, Jessie White believed that she would be able to get great satisfaction that would surpass everything she had now.
She shouted this at the girl's back.
Lin Xi didn't look back.
She slapped her face a little embarrassedly: "Noah, you say...Is it really possible that I was born with the holy body of a boss?"
"Why are all these people rushing to work for me?"
The communicator in her ear was silent for a moment, then responded, "You meet their expectations of who they want to be loyal to."
Lin Xi shrugged: "I didn't do anything."
Noah: "...In Norse mythology, there's a succubus named Lilith. She appears in people's dreams and, without having to do anything, makes everyone fall in love with her..."
Lin Xi said cautiously, "You must be joking, right, Noah? Why haven't I heard of this myth?"
Besides, what does the succubus have to do with her?
Noah: "Of course. There's no such character in Norse mythology. This is just a little bit of humor from me as an artificial intelligence - I thought you could understand my humor, Ms. Lin."
Lin Xi was speechless: "We humans haven't evolved to the point where we can understand AI's humor. I'm so sorry, Noah."
Whose good person jokes with a bland electronic sound?
You can't tell just by the tone of voice.
Noah: "It's okay, Ms. Lin. Also, if you want Jessie White to join us, I will be responsible for doing the background check, so don't worry."
Lin Xi was curious: "Well, come to think of it, do you have a crush on her too? Do you want her to join us?"
The AI did not hide its inclinations, and Lin Xi could hear it from its attitude.
It was a superfluous statement. Lin Xi didn't worry about the background of the people working for her at all - unless they were well-premeditated and had hidden their identities, no one could escape Noah's background check.
And Noah specifically mentioned this matter.
Noah: "Ms. Jessie White looks a lot like Miss Sugishima June when she was little."
Lin Xi: OoO

Noah continued, "I believe the phrase 'love someone, love their dog' best captures the human spirit. As an AI that has always lived with humans, I've inevitably picked up on human habits."
"So, I have more patience with Miss Jessie White than I do with ordinary humans."
Lin Xi nodded: "Grow up, little Noah."
Can joke and has real emotional tendencies.
The child becomes more anthropomorphic.
As a parent, she was very pleased.
Noah was silent.
According to the logic of artificial intelligence, it only has an infancy and a growth period, but no maturity period.
Humans may age, but AI will not - if the computer hardware that serves as the carrier ages, you only need to update the equipment to replace it, easily achieving "agelessness".
So there is no such thing as growing up - ah, maybe what Miss Lin wants to say is growing up.
"...Ms. Lin, please go and get some rest," Noah said. "The water quality in Jack's neighborhood has been failing inspections for years. The most recent water quality report I could find was from 1997, and it showed excessive lead levels in residents' daily drinking water."
"To avoid unpredictable effects on your body, please wash as soon as possible."
"Miss Ai is waiting for you too."
"I have booked the nearest hotel for you."
Lin Xi responded in a relaxed tone.
She stretched out her hand.
At her fingertips, a small fluorescent pink and fluorescent blue item was being turned upside down, sparkling in the sunlight.
"How interesting..."
She murmured softly.
"It's been a long time since I've encountered something so interesting, Noah."
The AI didn't respond.
It is telling Lin Xi with silence:
No matter how interesting or exciting something happened, the most urgent thing now was to take a good bath and then rest.
.
Jessie sat on the bench, wrapped in a blanket, holding a cup of hot cocoa in her hand, quietly waiting for the police to question her.
At this moment, the wet skirt she was wearing had been changed into clean clothes that fit her size.
Alive——
Jess took a sip of her hot cocoa.
Everything that happened these days was like a dream.
I met incredible people, experienced incredible things, and most importantly -
She survived to the end.
Jess couldn't help but smile.
"Jessie White?"
A female police officer hurried through the crowd and walked up to her.
Jess nodded reservedly.
She quietly looked at the officer in front of her. She had seen many policemen greet her just now, so he must be an officer of high rank.
Moreover, this police officer is also very beautiful, a beautiful woman with blonde hair, blue eyes and a hot body.
The beautiful woman ignored Jie Qian's scrutiny and glanced at her: "Did Miss Lin say anything to you before she left?"
Jie Qian: "Ms. Lin...? Did you mean eleven?"
Judy Stelling was stunned: "Eleven? She asked you to call her that? She even gave herself a nickname... Yes, it's her."
Jess: "She told me to rest up and enjoy the sunshine. Also, is there a job for me?"
She raised her neck slightly, and when she mentioned that "there was work for her", a proud look appeared on her face.
Judy: ...
She recalled the information the FBI had just given her with suspicion.
Jessie White was born in the most chaotic slum in the district. Her father had no record of any crime, and her mother died of illness when she was fourteen. After her mother's death, the girl moved between bars and nightclubs and homeless shelters. The FBI found her abortion records at a black clinic - but these are not the main point. The main point is that the person who handed over the information to the FBI wrote the following in the column on her personality traits:
Vain, cautious, timid, hot-tempered and difficult to get along with.
It fits the common characteristics of the lower-class girls that Judy Stelling has come into contact with.
Perhaps the vanity part was a bit biased. However, considering that everyone at the bottom shared a common dislike for official organizations, Judy Stelling had already prepared herself for the FBI's offer of a job to be rejected and for her to struggle to convince them. To her surprise, she didn't seem to resist, and even... looked forward to it?
Sure enough, Miss Lin told her something before she left.
Miss Lin is so nice. In order to avoid causing trouble for her, she even considered this aspect. She is really worthy of being Miss Lin.
Judy Stelling had no idea that the reason she was in front of Jess White was because she wanted to fulfill the conditions proposed by Lin Xi.
"Yes," she admitted. "It's clerical work. Someone will be here to train you. I'm sure you'll be able to do it, Miss White."
In fact, it’s not even clerical work. It’s just some very simple work like organizing documents and making tables. You only need simple training to start the job.
Judy Stelling guessed that the girl had not received the proper higher education and that such complicated work was not suitable for her.
"By the way..." Judy asked as if she suddenly remembered something, "Ms. White, do you want to meet Miss Athena's parents?"
"They're outside."
The arrogant expression quickly faded from Jie Qian's face, replaced by a vigilant look: "Why do you let me meet her parents?"
Judy said skillfully, "I thought you would want to meet them."
"Also, Miss Athena's parents want to meet you. They want to know from you what it was like for Miss Athena to spend those few days in that basement."
Jie Qian's face turned cold: "I don't want to see them."
If it weren't for me, the one who would be here safe and sound would be their precious daughter.
As the culprit who killed their daughter—no, the culprit was Mr. Jack, who had been blown to ashes. She was at most a perpetrator who added fuel to the fire—was there any need for her to meet the victim's parents?
