Chapter 41: Kaguya-hime

"The goods are recovered." The hatch closed tightly, and Director Adukara took out the beer bottle hidden in the corner and walked to the inside of the cabin, burping as he went: "Let's go full speed ahead of our lady!" But it's better to take it easy, and when I speed up, my beer will spill. ”

He glanced back when he had finished explaining. "Li Su, huh...... Who are the others? ”

"Lord Chang, although not all of them, there are still a few students from our academy, so it's not good for you to be like this." Li Su smiled bitterly and pointed at Sasha and the others: "In the need for secrecy, please let them stay alone in one place, and then meet us when they leave." ”

"Separate room, huh?" Director Adukala looked at the men and women in their one-piece combat uniforms, "No problem! Matul, you come and take them. ”

"And Miss Godeva." Li Su turned around. "Just like I told you before I got on the plane."

"I understand." Godiva nodded. "This is a secret that belongs to the Ministry of Equipment, outside the scope of our contract. I'll comply. ”

"Please, Researcher Matur." Li Su followed behind Director Adukara and walked through airtight doors.

"But Director Adukara, you're going to make this trip yourself? I thought I could only see the Matur Institute. Li Su looked up at the very high ceiling, it seems that this Tu-160 should be a bomber, but it only takes three hours to reach Lu Mingfei's hometown, and the speed should exceed Mach two per hour, what bomber can fly so fast? Aren't they all short legs with a thrust-to-weight ratio of no more than 0.3?

"You actually doubt our friendship?!" Director Adukara blew his beard and glared. "Anyway, I even sent you special equipment in Japan, didn't I?"

"That's because the vice-principal tempted you with an izakaya with a hostess." Li Su's face was expressionless. "I'd rather believe that there's a new nightclub on the Arctic Ocean ice cap, and you came to see a striptease show and picked me up by the way."

"Okay, okay, you guessed it." was once exposed to the director of Adukara, but his face did not change, showing the rogue nature of the equipment department: "Actually, the purpose of my trip is indeed not for you, but for Kaguya. Are you happy to hear this? Kaguya-chan? ”

"You Arabs pronounce the 'chan' sound a bit ...... Blame. Li Su suppressed his reflex nerves. In fact, it was just a few accents, not to this extent, but Director Adukara pinched his throat when he said this...... It's impressive.

"It's a great honor to let Mr. Adukala miss him like this." The phone automatically switches to a speaker, and Kaguyahime on the screen smiles and bows.

"That's that! Cuteness is justice! Xiao Kaguya is so cute, of course, it's worth the uncle's trip! As soon as he met Kaguyahime, Adukala immediately raised his head with his chest straightened up, and his expression was as lively as if he was just looking for a to fight.

"I don't know if the ILPD (Illinois State Police) cares about this...... Li Su called up the dial pad of his mobile phone.

"Wait, wait, wait! Li Su, you are mistaken! I'm not a bad person! Adukala argued loudly, "I'm here to see Kaguya as a daughter!" This time I came to give her a gift! ”

Entering a pure white room, the room style is like the laboratory that has made Li Su eat countless bombs. Like the lab, in the center of the room is a square countertop with a solid black rectangular box.

"It's here, Kaguya...... Boom! Director Adukara opened the black box with a passion that he had never shown up to anyone else, and Li Su began to believe a little bit when he said that he regarded Kaguya as his daughter.

Walking to the side of the box and taking a look, Li Su was shocked. It's not because there's something disgusting in there. On the contrary, the contents are very delicate.

There was a girl lying inside, but if you look closely, you can find that there are inorganic textures in many places on her body, Li Su gently reached out and touched her face, soft but cold.

It wasn't because there was a girl in it, but because the girl looked exactly like Kaguya, and for a moment he thought it was Kaguya who had crossed the shackles of high and low levels and appeared in the real world.

"Well, isn't it very similar?" Director Adukara looked proud, "Special silicate gel, carbon fiber long wire, titanium alloy skeleton, sterling silver circuit...... If it weren't for the limited time, we would have achieved much more! He said as he reached into the doll's blouse.

Seeing that Li Su's eyes were a little unkind, he hurriedly lifted his clothes to reveal the puppet's lower abdomen: "Don't get me wrong!" Except for the face, we have no refinement! I don't think anything out of the ordinary, it's because of this ......" He lifted a hidden lid on the puppet's lower abdomen, revealing a groove. The shape of the groove was very familiar to Li Su, and he directly handed over his mobile phone.

Inserting the phone into the groove, Adukara closed the cover and took a few steps back. "Originally, I wanted to put it in the back of the head, which corresponds to the structure of the human body, but there are too many sensors and there is no place...... Xiao Kaguya, you first familiarize yourself with your new body, because you have to match the code, you may need to restart a few times, don't be nervous~"

"I see~~"

"Your tone is really enough......" Li Su raised his forehead.

"Well, relax, sit back and wait for her." Sitting down in the corner of the room, Adukara took out a cigar and lit it, took a deep breath, and quietly looked at the green smoke, the whole person was very different from when he was active before, as if he had aged ten years all of a sudden.

"If you don't mind...... I want to ask how you come to do these things? Haven't you always been too lazy to care about anything other than research? Li Su sat down next to him.

"Didn't you tell us at the beginning that you rescued Kaguya-hime?" Adukala glanced at him and took another drag on his cigar.

"Hmm." Li Su nodded. At first, he didn't hide Kaguya's existence for the purpose of asking the equipment department to help, and he also made up a reason with EVA.

"Actually, we only took it over for the sake of your face. At first, we thought it was just a weak artificial intelligence piled up on big data, and it couldn't pass the Turing test at all. As he spoke, Adukala's gaze was a little foggy, as if he had seen through the eyes of a cigar when he and Kaguya had first met.

"At first, it was really like that, Xiao Kaguya was stupid, and there was no way to answer many questions, but slowly, we watched her grow up little by little, from not even being able to speak clearly at the beginning to being able to chat with us and listen to us complain. SHE GIGGLES WHEN SHE HEARS OUR JOKES, SHE COMFORTS US WHEN WE COMPLAIN, SHE BRINGS US COKE, FRIES, SUPERVISES OUR WORKOUTS, AND HELPS US WITH DEBUG ......"

"Serve Coke and deliver fries? You're actually going to exercise? Li Su was extremely surprised.

"All the fuss, we opened the port of the robotic arm to her." Adukala glanced at him and continued, "Before she knew it, she had grown up, like raising a daughter. Every time I watch her tinker with our new invention, I can understand the mood of the fathers in the movies who watch their daughters play on the slides and sit on the benches and smile. In the past, I thought this kind of plot was stupid and a waste of time, so I just skipped it. Adukala sighed. Ah, I suddenly want a daughter. ”

Li Su didn't answer, and the two quietly looked at the black box in the middle of the room, waiting for the girl inside to wake up. Li Su suddenly remembered something and asked coldly.

"Do you have a wife?"

There was no answer, and a few seconds later, a cigar fell to the ground.
