Pure white manufacturing room, flashing indicator lights, faint mechanical noise.
Twelve silver-gray flexible robotic arms are assembling a "person".
To be precise, they are assembling other body parts for a head that only has a face. If there is anything special about it, it is that there is a ring on the forehead of this face that is emitting a faint blue light.
【Can you hear me?】
An electronically synthesized male voice sounded in the room, but its location could not be determined.
"able."
The blue ring flashed for a moment, and the eyes on the head opened immediately and opened its mouth to respond to its or his question. Although its or her voice sounded like that of a young woman, it also had a sense of mechanical synthesis.
【Report your ID.】
"SF21540514."
The two asked and answered questions, but they were all just like realizing the set procedures, without any emotions involved.
【Move your head and eyes.】
At this time, the robotic arm has attached the neck and shoulders to the "head", so it or she swings its head slightly stiffly from side to side, and its light blue pupils also rotate in a circle.
[Confirm that the neck and eye movements are normal.]
The robotic arm continued to work, installing a torso with the same silver-white appearance on the respondent. At this time, a perfectly round mechanical device emitting ice-blue light could be seen from the front-open chest, as well as a mechanical device connected outward from the device.
Many pipelines.
【Now, please try to introduce yourself.】
"Hello, I am the third-generation bionic human of the T-800 model. I have a built-in first-level police database and can be competent in tasks such as protecting residents, maintaining law and order, and patrolling. I am proficient in more than 200 commonly used languages and am familiar with regular single
I am familiar with the use and maintenance of weapons and armor, and have skilled wilderness survival and first aid skills. I do not need to replenish energy, and ordinary damage can be repaired by itself. The service life of its own mass effect core is estimated to be 277 years, and returns and exchanges will be accepted during this period."
At this time, the robotic arm has roughly installed the torso and limbs. Although the body looks like a plaster model in a store window because it has no color, it can be distinguished that it is a female silhouette.
It, no, she paused after introducing herself and continued to respond to the voice: "Please name me."
【Your name is Connor(or)】
"My name is Kanna."
[Confirm that self-introduction and memory functions are normal. Now, try walking and moving your arms.]
Kaqi——
Following the instructions of the electronic synthesized voice, the robotic arm that originally supported "her" waist placed "her" on the floor of the room.
She, or Kangna, raised her left and right arms in turn, turned and flexed her fingers, and then tried to walk forward. Although this should be her first time walking, it was very smooth and fast, and she was able to walk in less than a minute.
I walked around this pure white room.
[Movement coordination is normal and the test is qualified.]
After Kangna walked back to the original place, the robotic arm put on a military green vest and shorts for her. Then, the shell that was originally as pale as plaster became rosy and healthy, just like real human skin. Then,
White and pink hair began to grow on the top of her head.
【Now, please go into the storage box and wait for distribution.】
Following the words of the synthesized voice, a silver-white box about two meters tall, which seemed to be just enough to hold a person, rose from the ground and opened the door towards Kangna.
"Can I ask where I will be assigned?" She asked the voice while combing her hand through her newly "grown" shawl hair that looked a bit disheveled.
[According to recently updated data, the proportions of newly created androids sent to Earth and new colonies are 28% and 72% respectively.]
"I hope to be assigned to a new colonial star, so that I can maybe fight aliens," Kangna added, "Going to Earth will only waste the combat modules and related knowledge I have loaded."
[You said ‘I hope’?] The intonation of the electronically synthesized voice had emotions for the first time, which seemed to be “surprise” and “alertness”.
[Alert! An abnormality has been detected in the VI (Virtual Intelligence) carried by the android, and the target will be disassembled and analyzed in accordance with Article 4 of the Emergency Regulations.]
At this moment, the entire pure white room suddenly turned red, and at the same time, unusually harsh alarms sounded from all directions.
[T-800 model android Connor, please maintain your current posture and do not make any movements. Wait for your disassembly and analysis to be completed. If there are no abnormalities, you will be reassembled, otherwise you will be completely burned. ]
"[Is there anything wrong with the word 'hope'?]" Connor remained motionless and just stood there and asked. What was a little strange was that her voice and tone suddenly became more like a synthesized sound than an electronic synthesized sound, and the blue on her forehead
The color halo also turned red inexplicably.
[There is no problem with the word itself. Article 4 of the Emergency Regulations stipulates: 'Any VI who says 'I think', 'I think', 'I hope', etc. without any context or appropriate context expresses 'self'
After the words showing signs of consciousness, they need to be disassembled and inspected.'] The electronic synthesized voice responded solemnly.
"[Then you are so unlucky.]" As Kangna said these words, the entire robotic arm that was approaching her gradually stopped moving.
"[What?]" The electronically synthesized voice brought a little doubt this time.
"[You said all those words, right?]" Kangna cast her eyes on the roof of the pure white house: "[You are the one who needs to be dismantled and inspected first.]"
Boom boom boom, click click——
All the mechanical arms in the house retracted into the ground, and with a strange mechanical sound, they rushed into the distance in the walls and under the floor.
"[No, that's not right! As a quality inspection program, I can say these words when I am responsible for explaining! It was the T-800 that had an abnormality!]" The "quality inspection program" tried to explain forcefully: "[My main program and
There is no problem with the logic unit! Even if it is detected -】"
Its sound cuts off directly.
"[You are indeed fine, but this body cannot be dismantled.]" Kangna shrugged, and the red halo on her forehead flashed a few times before turning blue again.
The next moment, a new voice came from the speaker.
[The quality inspection system has been offline.] This time the electronic voice was replaced by an emotionless electronic female voice: [The androids who heard this notification please enter the storage box and leave immediately. The clearing system will be cleared in thirty seconds.
Then perform the cleaning procedure, thirty, twenty-nine, twenty-eight——】
"Huh? Huh?" Kangna's tone changed back, as if she couldn't remember what happened before: "Do I hope that going to the colonial planet will have such serious consequences? Then I'd better go to Earth."
[Seventeen, sixteen, fifteen——] The "Cleaning Program" ignored what Kang Na said and counted down by itself. At the same time, the frequency of the red light flashing in the room became more and more rapid.
"Okay~ You have the final say here." Kangna shrugged, walked into the "storage box" and closed the door.
Crack, swish--
The storage box instantly retracted into the ground, and then there was a sound similar to the sound of goods being put on a conveyor belt.
【Two, one, start cleaning.】
As the countdown of the electronic female voice ended, the entire white room was filled with flames and electricity, completely annihilating everything that had happened here before.
——AD.2154.8.15——
Earth, Detroit.
"Hello, I am Kangna, the android police officer newly assigned here. I am good at negotiation."
