Chapter 363 Machine Butler

"Number Five is a piece of shit."

"That's right."

The two agree on this.

Five's life trajectory is very smooth.

Yin Long put him in the western city, a noble family, as a housekeeping bionic.

There, No. 5 just turned on the phone, and the first task he got was not to do housework or cook.

Instead, learn social etiquette.

Very traditional etiquette.

These etiquettes cultivate gentlemen. After learning, every word and deed of the whole person will bring a touch of nobility.

The appearance of No. 5 is also perfect, with a slender figure and no flaws from any angle.

He doesn't have to struggle.

There is no need to load the combat system, learn combat skills, and recognize various weapons and ordnance.

There is no need to struggle at the bottom of society and suffer bullying.

As soon as Number Five was turned on, he lived a carefree life.

"I don't know what kind of considerations Yin Long had in the first place to come up with the character of No. 5." No. 3 sighed.

"Because you all failed the first four?"

"Maybe it is... But, with the personality and growth environment of No. 5, he is doomed to be a waste. In the chaos, he can't be of much use."

"So he's dead?"

"right."

Number five can be described as pampered.

From birth to now, I have not encountered any setbacks.

The No. 7 he and Lu Wen met last time were two extremes.

But number seven is obviously more capable than number five.

It's hard to say what Yin Long's purpose in cultivating No. 5 was, maybe he thought it was feasible, or maybe it was just a whim.

"Just yesterday, after No. 5 was shot dead by Ms. Xia, his consciousness returned to the temporary base built by the few of us. He just woke up from his new body, and before he fully adapted to that body, he suddenly fell down. After that, the rest of us The next few people got the same message, it was from that guy."

That message is simple.

Said that No. 5 is too useless and useless, and living will only add to the chaos.

"So No. 5 was temporarily taken back by the person behind the scenes?" Lu Wen looked at him.

"right……"

Number three had a somewhat helpless expression on his face.

Five was alive and had no effect on them.

In fact, there is such a good-for-nothing brother, at least he can remind them at any time that people cannot live without goals, or they will become like that one day.

"That person obviously wants to tell us through number five that he is fully capable of controlling the life and death of each of us, so that we don't dare to resist and do things for him seriously."

"In this case, I think he also has the ability to directly control me."

"No. 9, this is what makes you special. Yin Long and that person are competing for you. You have the control programs that the two of them are constantly strengthening in your body. Those programs are extremely destructive. They dismantle each other's traces. Now that you have A00 clearance again, I think you are free and no longer controlled by anyone."

Number three said.

Except for Lu Wen, the other eight had already been given up by Yin Long.

That's why the eight of them were easily controlled by that person.

During the entire control process, Yin Long didn't respond at all.

"No. 9, compared to the other guys, I am actually the most ordinary. I have had successes and failures. The journey has not been smooth, but there have not been too many twists and turns. I have been working for more than six years. It's human."

Three's voice was sincere.

Thinking from a human perspective can avoid many misunderstandings of mechanical thinking.

The programming inside the androids determines their attitude towards humans.

Lu Wen has seen many bionic people in no man's land.

Even if those guys are awakened and get rid of the circuit breaker measures, they will always look at everything humans do from a positive perspective.

For example, the leaders of the Bionic Alliance back then wished to believe that humans would allow them to build cities.

This is a program in the body at work.

And the nine Lu Wen brothers, because of the false memory of the previous life, can get rid of mechanical thinking to a certain extent.

"You want to say that you are more trustworthy than the others?" Lu Wen asked.

"My perspective on things should be more than theirs, and I have a perfect escape plan, number nine, I need you to cooperate with me."

It seems that last time in West City, No. 3 was taken advantage of by Lu Wen from the very beginning. Two shots broke both legs, and his thoughts were confused, so he couldn't say much.

I found it today, and we are still talking about cooperation.

This time they both sat down.

The positions are equal.

No one is in a hurry, no one is pushing.

"In order to show sincerity, I will first say all the information I know."

Number Three stared at Lu Wen with a calm gaze and a steady voice.

Next to Lu Wen was Xia Chuluo, a walking lie detector.

"I think you know all of our nine personalities. I still have everyone's life experience and growth process here. I can give you all of them."

"No, I can find it."

"That's good..." No. 3 continued: "When the bionics rioted, the six of us received news at the same time..."

That message stated.

Their so-called last life memory is false.

When he first got the news, No. 3 couldn't accept it. After all, he has been on the phone for six years, and he thought he was a human being in these six years.

"The other numbers should be in the same mood..."

But soon.

Here comes the second message.

The news stated that although the nine of them currently have bionic bodies, they actually have real human bodies.

"The man said that our bodies are all dormant at low temperature and maintained with the world's most advanced technology. The longest one is No. 1."

"Humans can still sleep at low temperature?"

"Nine of us are terminally ill. The one with the longest dormancy time is No. 1. He has been dormant for nearly fifty years. With the medical technology at that time, his disease could not be cured, so that person's organization found him and offered to help him dormant. , and use his life template to create a bionic man to live on for him."

"But all nine of us were created by Yin Long."

"No. 9, listen to me first."

At this time, No. 3's fans also came up.

He smiled and nodded at the shopkeeper, and had no intention of eating.

The shopkeeper saw that these people were talking about something, and he was very interested, so he retreated to the back kitchen.

"I think you also know that in No. 1's memories of his previous life, he was a teacher who fell on the podium..."

"right."

"This is real."

No. 3 looked sincerely, trying to persuade Lu Wen.

"His flesh and blood body is indeed a teacher, and he has indeed fallen on the podium. His life is almost exactly the same as the previous life created by Yin Long, but it is not on that blue planet, but on this land. Earth, in Central City, is an elementary school teacher"

"Yeah?"

"Yes, and his character. Before he was terminally ill, he was a bit paranoid, so his bionic character is also paranoid. Number nine, haven't you thought about it? Why didn't Yin Long create a Bionics without personality defects?"

Lu Wen didn't reply.

He frowned slightly, put one hand on the table, and tapped rhythmically with his index finger.

It was still early, before five o'clock, and the summer night came slowly.

No. 3 was not in a hurry. After waiting for a while, he continued: "In the memory of No. 1, all the things that happened in his previous life are actually true. In this world, what happened to his flesh and blood body has changed. The background, many of the names of the people in it have never been changed."

"But, all you know is what that person wants you to know." Lu Wen said slowly.

"No. 9, I know what you're thinking. Since you turned it on, everyone you've met is very scheming, so you'll go in that direction, but..."

Number Three paused.

He glanced at Lu Wen's index finger that was always tapping on the table, knowing that what he said still had a certain influence on Lu Wen.

"That person didn't tell us about his relationship with Yin Long, but I think he might have been friends with Yin Long in the past, and then there was a conflict, so they parted ways."

"You can't believe it all." Lu Wen still made this statement.

"But in fact, we have no other choice but to believe." No. 3 smiled bitterly, "No. 9, according to that person, my flesh and blood body has been asleep for almost thirty years... If we If you don't do what he says, that body will be abandoned, completely rotted, and there will be no chance of coming back to life."

"You really want to confirm that you have a certain degree of connection with human beings, even if that body has no connection with you at all?"

Assume what number three said is true.

Then they are just copies, with similar experiences and personalities, but they are not the same flesh and blood bodies as before.

Looking at No. 3's expression, Lu Wen suddenly remembered a line from "The Machine Butler".

【I would rather die like a human than live forever like a machine】

The world is full of irony.

Bionic people want to get flesh and blood, even if they give up their special abilities, just for a real beating heart with warmth, a real feeling that cannot be copied and imitated, even if death will come unexpectedly.

Human beings, however, place their hope of immortality on mechanical life.

Perhaps the unobtainable is always the most precious.

But when Lu Wen watched the movie version of "Mechanical Butler", he always felt that the robot in it was too tired to live.

"Why bother?"

He looked at number three calmly.

"Why should you care about identity, species, and external recognition? You are you, and everything you know makes you, not that flesh and blood body that doesn't know the truth."

"But number nine..."

No. 3 carefully elaborated.

He spoke very slowly this time, one word at a time.

"You...don't want to know where your family is?"
