Chapter 1: Lost Technology
A park in Keihoku City, at night.
Drip. Drip.
"Hey! Lili, what are you doing, do you have time? ”
"Oh! It's Wen Kai, I'm at my best friend's house, I'm here to help with something at her house, what's the matter? ”
"It's Valentine's Day, I'm going to surprise you."
"Oh! Leave me the surprise first, and give it to me another day! “
"That's okay another day, it's important to get down to business."
"Thank you! Wen Kai, what a day! I love you. ”
"Well, I love you too, so you can get busy first."
"Lili, who, Bai Shao and his friends are coming soon, you still have the heart to call."
"Ahh It's okay, a classmate".
"I can tell you, Lili, this Bai Shaoke is a rich second generation, with a lot of money in the family, and a handsome person, you have to take advantage of it!"
"I know, it's up to you."
"If it does, you'll have to treat me to a big meal."
"Oops! We have been in a relationship for so many years, it's all trivial, drizzle. ”
"Ah, hurry up and make up your makeup, Bai Shao is here."
"Oops! Where did I put my makeup bag. ”
Listening to the busy sound of the phone, Zhang Wenkai sat on the chair with some loss, the howling cold wind kept drilling into his body, tightening his clothes, and it seemed that it had no effect.
Ay! Ten dates, eight times did not come, Zhang Wenkai took out the newly bought sixth sense, and fell to the ground with the flowers in his hand, thinking that on this holy Valentine's Day, he could end the virginity he had kept for twenty-four years, but he failed again.
Zhang Wenkai, a senior student at Jingbei University of Science and Technology, was born in an ordinary family, and he has been particularly good at studying since he was a child, and was admitted to the capital Jingbei University of Science and Technology with excellent results.
But after being admitted to the university, Zhang Wenkai seems to have lost his talent for learning, and his grades are no longer among the best, considering that his studies are not so good, and his younger brother is about to take the college entrance examination, and his younger brother's college entrance examination will increase a large amount of expenses in the family, Zhang Wenkai decided not to take the postgraduate entrance examination and went out to find a job to reduce the burden on the family.
In this money-oriented society, with a monthly income of 3,000, he can only barely survive in the capital Jingbei City, and everything else is basically delusional, let alone any ideals and ambitions.
Zhang Wenkai looked at the yellowed leaves, swaying in the breeze without support, what is the difference between him and himself, he is as lonely and helpless, and many unpleasant feelings in his career, love, etc. have sprung to his heart.
"Ah, when is the end, what am I going to do" Zhang Wenkai sat on the bench and hissed as hard as he could.
"Huh? Where does the light come from" Zhang Wenkai looked up at the street lamp, which did not provide much light.
Suddenly, Zhang Wenkai raised his head and looked at the sky, and his pupils instantly shrank to the size of a pin's nose.
A meteor has flown in front of Zhang Wenkai's eyes, what? Meteor? No way? Let's dream! For a moment, Zhao Wenkai had an unreal feeling, feeling like he was caught in some kind of illusion, no, that was true, when Zhao Wenkai reacted, he hurriedly jumped forward, a donkey rolled, and his body lay on the ground in a 'big' shape.
At the same time, an unknown object fell on the place where Zhao Wenkai was standing, and a burnt smell rushed into Zhang Wenkai's nasal cavity, which made Zhang Wenkai wake up instantly, slowly get up, and then looked at the place where he was standing, and could only see a pit with a diameter of about one meter, Zhang Wenkai walked slowly and step by step towards the pit.
"What could it be? It can't be a meteorite, right? Or is it an alien creature? Will I be taken away as soon as I pass? What should I do, do I want to send it online, online, etc.? Zhang Wenkai walked towards the unknown object with a complex and tangled psychology.
What caught his eye was a palm-sized black box, blue light appeared on the surface from time to time, Zhang Wenkai shook his arm, covered his hand with the sleeve of his clothes, and reached out to touch the black box gently, huh? It wasn't very hot, it was warm, so he stretched out his hand under his sleeve without any scruples and picked up the black box.
The touch of metal is not very heavy, and it is as heavy as a mobile phone, and after turning it over and looking around, there is nothing surprising, the whole thing is like a mobile hard drive!
When he was depressed, suddenly, a heavy electronic sound came into Zhao Wenkai's ears.
"Perform Mission One"
"The living environment has been confirmed, and it can be survived"
"Language Family Reserved"
"In the biological scan, humanoids have been scanned, and the similarity with the humans on the home planet is 95.657%"
"Pollution level: low"
"In the positioning of the galaxy, the positioning system is faulty and cannot be located"
"Mission 1 cannot be executed, task 2 is executed"
"Test the level of civilization, this level of civilization is too low to perform mission two"
"Carrying out Mission Three"
"Search for highly intelligent beings to search for highly intelligent beings, establish connections, and adjust the language system"
"Hello, sir," the black box said to Zhang Wenkai after a flash of blue light.
Zhang Wenkai was so frightened that he sat on the ground all of a sudden, and he was in a daze, maybe he was broken in his brain, or he may have been frightened by this black box, in short, we don't know what the reason is.
"Sir, please answer," an electronic voice asked again.
"I'm not afraid of you, there is a kind of appearance, don't hide" Zhang Wenkai suddenly came to his senses, stood up, and shouted in a little panic.
"Well, sir, as you wish," he said, and a series of lights appeared above the black box, finally converging the image of a little girl! Every strand of hair is so clear that it stands in front of you like a real person, and even the pores on the little girl's face can be faintly seen.
Zhang Wenkai was startled, so he threw the black box out, what is the situation, holographic projection, can anyone explain? Zhang Wenkai asked in a trembling voice, but then Zhang Wenkai's mood calmed down again, he was a poor sling with nothing, and there was nothing worth being deceived by others, the most valuable thing was the mobile phone on his body, so what was there to worry about?
"I'm from the distant Outer Pacific Galaxy, Voyager No. 76, my name is Na, and the person I appear in front of you is realized with real human image technology, which is holographic projection in the words of your planet." The little girl's mouth closed in the image.
"Then you're not here to destroy the Earth, are you?" Zhang Wenkai hurriedly asked.
After all, you say so in the sci-fi films of a certain scientific and technological powerhouse, destroying the earth is every alien's favorite thing to do.
"I'm sorry, sir, I don't have this feature, I'm sorry to disappoint you," the little girl said with some frustration.
"Ahh Haha, it's okay, don't care about these details, then are you an artificial intelligence? Zhang Wenkai touched his head and said embarrassedly.
"Yes, sir".
Wow! It's gone, artificial intelligence, although it is said that whoever invented artificial intelligence, which country has artificial intelligence or something, in Zhang Wenkai's view, it is just advocating, and the artificial intelligence of people who have not surpassed it is just a bunch of mechanical parts, not to mention independent thinking or something, which is not available at all.
Just when Zhang Wenkai was curious about the baby and wanted to ask something, he heard the image of the little girl.
"Sir, if you continue to stay here, you may be taken away for interrogation by the relevant authorities of your country, and I may be sliced and studied."
"That's right, if this is discovered, won't you be arrested!" I thought about leaving now, but Zhang Wenkai's hand stopped in mid-air, looking at Na who continued to image, and thought of it with some bad taste in his heart
Do I have to say "Na, take the supernatural powers" first, so that this image called Na will be taken back.
"Sir, from your expression, do you need Na to turn off the projection?" asked Na with a puzzled expression.
Sure enough, it is worthy of artificial intelligence, that is, a cow break, which can be seen.
"I'll call you Cortana in the future, yes, Cortana, I need to put you away so that I can get out of here," Zhang Wenkai said with some seriousness.
Because Zhang Wenkai had already heard the footsteps of someone approaching and the shouts coming from afar, and faintly seemed to hear the sound of the police car, he had to leave here immediately.
Seeing that Cortana had turned off the projection, Zhang Wenkai hurriedly put the black box containing Cortana in the pocket of his clothes and left here in a hurry. And specially picked some unmonitored and dim places to walk, and then took a taxi to walk around the city for half a circle, returned to his rental house and closed the door, Zhang Wenkai leaned on the door and still panted.
"Sir, your heart is beating 112 beats per minute, which is already a danger to your health, please control your emotions" Cortana's voice came from the black box.
"Thank you for your concern, I'm not nervous," Zhang Wenkai patted his heart and said.
Indeed, Zhang Wenkai is very afraid, if he is caught by the relevant departments, Xiao Na will not say anything for the time being, how will the relevant departments treat him, Zhang Wenkai can't imagine that strict interrogation is a must, if he can't stand up and go in, lie down and come out, it is possible.
"Don't be nervous, sir, with the technology of the earth can't track me down yet," Cortana said in a more humanly tone.
"Cortana, your electronic voice is not so heavy" Zhang Wenkai heard Cortana's tone, which felt closer to a human tone than at the beginning, and it was no longer the feeling of mechanical synthesized sound.
"Sir, Cortana's language system has started to synchronize with humans through the network," Cortana replied.
This is too rebellious! Zhang Wenkai was very surprised by this, turned on the indoor light, closed the curtains, took out the black box from his pocket, and put it on the only table in the room, Zhang Wenkai asked:
"Cortana, how advanced you are, compared to Earth's technology."
"Sir, at present, the earth's technological level is still in a low-tech period, and Cortana is produced in a super-high-tech period."
"Huh! That's really incomparable" Zhang Wenkai touched his nose, and once again fell into embarrassment, he didn't expect that he felt that such an advanced earth was only in a low-tech period.
"Sir, don't be depressed, the technology of the home planet has been developed for tens of thousands of years, and the Earth you are on is still very short in development," Cortana said in a reassuring tone.
"Then how far away is the galaxy where Cortana is located, and what is its name?" Zhang Wenkai smiled bitterly, looking at Cortana's holographic projection and asked casually.
"It's about 7.8 million light-years away from Earth, and it's called the Thar Galaxy," Cortana explained for Zhang Wenkai.
7.8 million light years, Zhang Wenkai remembers that the closest big galaxy to the Milky Way is the Andromeda Galaxy, which is about 2.5 million light years, more than three times, my God, I can't imagine it.
"Cortana, why did you land on Earth?" After all, the galaxy where Xiao Na is located is so far away from the earth, and I don't know how long it took just to be on the road, Zhang Wenkai is very curious, he can't come so far to invade, it's unrealistic! Unless the leader of Cortana's system has a cannon in his head.
"Finding a living planet and spreading the technology of the home planet, this is Cortana's task," Cortana said in a soft voice.
After listening to Xiao Na's words, Zhang Wenkai still didn't believe much, who would give his technology to others for free for no reason, but Zhang Wenkai really couldn't guess what the purpose was, so he didn't think about it, but asked a little more puzzled:
"How to spread the technology of the home star".
Xiao Na's holographic projection first looked at Zhang Wenkai, and then said to Zhang Wenkai with a solemn expression: "I need your help, sir."
Zhang Wenkai was very surprised and pointed his finger at himself: "What can I help you?" ”
I couldn't help but think in my heart, what can I help Cortana, this is too, I can't help myself, who else can I help?
"That's right, sir, it's you, Cortana has stored the advanced technology of the Tal system, and Cortana will be your assistant to help you 'transform' your home planet."
If it is really as Xiao Na said, Xiao Na provides herself with advanced technology, then she can make a lot of money, in that case, you can buy two mobile phones, one to make a call, one to play a game, such a idea, Zhang Wenkai has never told others; when the time comes, I will open a company first, and I will find fault when I interview employees; it is so cool, wipe the saliva left at the corner of my mouth, Zhang Wenkai then asked:" Can I really do it?"
"Yes, sir, you can change the world," Cortana said as she looked at Zhang Wenkai and turned off the holographic projection as soon as she finished speaking.
