He sat here, closest to her, thinking about what had happened half an hour ago.

There is no change here, there is no change in this starship and all the starships in this way. Fang Chenxi told him that there were a total of 6 starships involved in the Peace Tie program, and the Century was the only Type A Chang'an-class transport ship. Its mission is to preserve supplies.

Almost every year on this day, the other five starships send people over to replenish supplies. One might ask, why not use the ship's resource recycling system to produce edible plants? The answer is: they are all caretakers, and they only need the most reasonable and simple food to fill their stomachs.

Before the boring handover ceremony, each starship's Warden has an unnamed project, which is to hold a dormant banquet that will be memorable for the new Warden. At that time, the food on the table was the most varied, all of which were collected from the starship's original storage department and resource recycling system, but most of them were vegetarian dishes, and they couldn't taste meat at all, which was difficult to preserve.

Bai Fengyi received Fang Chenxi's invitation, and they will start the dormant banquet in the center cafeteria.

Under this LAN of 6 starships, the bracelet is like a child being coaxed by the starship system to timidly inform it that it has an internet connection. In fact, it is just a simple agreement. Any AR displays, computers, and other smart devices that want to request data do so only in the Starship Data Department. There is a time lag between everyone and Earth, and it takes 3 years for communication messages to reach there.

Bai Fengyi took one last look at the sleeping Su Mo, he turned around and took the laser pistol with him, and then left here. Calculate the time, and when you get there, the party is about to begin.

Along the way, he came across a robot, but it looked more advanced than Botts, its face and hair were not very different from those of a real person, and even the way it spoke was very human-like.

It greets, "Hey, handsome, I know you, are you going to the dormancy banquet too?" ”

"Well, that's right, but how do you know me?" Bai Fengyi thought it was a real person at first, but this was just a robot's forced pretense.

"Hmm...... You're stumped me with that question. It grinned stiffly, revealing its white, flawless teeth. This exposes its identity, or at least makes people suspicious.

"You're a robot? It's unbelievable. ”

"Your name is Bai Fengyi, and you are an explorer. My name is Ott, and I'm a learning robot from Century. "These 30 years of study have given me a basic understanding of human movements and habits, although I don't know what joy, anger and sorrow are. ”

"You're smiling ugly." According to his words, Bai Fengyi bluntly pointed out the problem.

"Okay, I'll study hard." There were no emotional fluctuations in what Ott said, maybe he really didn't know the joys and sorrows.

When humans enter the era of intelligence, they have always wanted to emotionalize robots. Scientists want to develop intelligent AI with high EQ, rather than blindly writing programs that accept human commands and have no soul.

But today, no one can do this, and IQ and EQ can't be equal in robots. Whether it's a bionic person with a very high IQ but can't say good things, or a comforting, likable but very stupid EQAI, they are all obsolete products of the times.

Bai Fengyi walked into the central cafeteria, and Ott stood by the door. He originally walked in front of Bai Fengyi, but then gradually slowed down behind Bai Fengyi. He didn't need food, and there was no need for him to race against time. In those wasted years, from the time he left the factory to the time he worked as a maintenance officer for the Century machine, until he retired from the war, he could not use up the core energy.

"The explorers are coming." Fang Chenxi and everyone stood up, and everyone's eyes converged on the person who was not good-looking. Most of them had a blank expression on their faces, if Fang Chenxi didn't say it, not many people would know Bai Fengyi's identity.

"Bai Fengyi, please sit with the new caretaker." Fang Chenxi stretched out her hand to invite him, she looked at the door, and it seemed that no one would come.

"Okay, Dr. Fang." Bai Fengyi glanced at everyone and saw He Chuan at the very edge, he showed an unpleasant expression, as if to say, "Hello, explorer." You're here just in time. Bai Fengyi smiled and asked everyone to sit down, and filled the position next to Xia Xia by himself, which was the farthest position from He Chuan.

There were many foods on the table made by food printers, and they came in a variety of styles and looked good, but the old caretaker understood that these were routines. The cake was not creamy but eerie corn, a whole turkey was made of starch, and the drinks were even more fake, mixed with cola. However, Fang Chenxi was ready, she was afraid that someone would not be able to eat it, so she printed a large piece of steak with synthetic meat. In the minds of these people, synthetic meat is not real meat.

"There's still a caretaker, her name is Su Mo." He Chuan suddenly stood up and said. His eyes were like lasers, shining on everyone's faces, forcing people to bow their heads.

Bai Fengyi slowly stood up and explained, "She is sick and is resting now. ”

"Where is she?" He Chuan asked.

"In my room."

"Wow, that's awesome!" The people around Fang Chenxi suddenly applauded, and he clapped his hands a few times before stopping, because under the gaze of others, he realized that this was not a very interesting topic. He was embarrassed and said, "Shouldn't you be happy?" ”

Fang Chenxi whispered, "Curtis, you are really wise!" She turned her head to look at him, quickly stood up and announced to everyone, "Since Su Mo is sick and can't participate, then let's go." She smiled and added, "You're welcome, everyone." ”

He Chuan sat down, and Bai Fengyi and Fang Chenxi also sat down.

Martin whispered to Hurley, "It turns out that the patient's name is Su Mo, which is a good name. ”

"I saved her, and you didn't do anything." Hurley stifled a laugh and demanded, "I want your share of the steak." ”

"Eat, I have bad teeth." Martin stumbled and cut the synthetic steak with a knife and fork and served it to Hurley. With a funny face, he prompted, "This is probably the best synthetic meat you've ever tasted." ”

Hurley took a piece of beef, and after chewing it a few times, she realized that it didn't seem to be much different from the real beef. So he asked, "Is this synthetic?" It feels good. ”

"Hehe, Fang Chenxi is a doctor of biological life, of course her cultivation is good, if you are replaced to cultivate, you will be lucky if you can't eat the earthy taste."

"Isn't it all meat? I'll give it a try later. ”

"I've had a hard time. Remember, don't take the wrong sample. ”

"What happens if you get it wrong?"

"Have you ever eaten an earthworm?" Martin's words silenced Hurley, and he cut off another piece of synthetic steak into her plate, and said earnestly, "In order to survive, you must swallow it even if it is unpalatable." ”

Hurley understands that no one can escape the sanction of genes when it comes to survival, and birth, old age, sickness and death are common.

Earth, ALC Headquarters.

All the high-level personnel gathered in this solemn and breathless conference room. They remember that it was the safest place to be.

They quietly stared at a wall, each expressing their emotions. Some sat still, without any expression on their faces, while others smiled sadly but fakely, or even simply slumped in their chairs.

In the eyes of those people, if it weren't for some reason, they wouldn't bother to leave the money-making work in their hands and come to see this half-dead old thing.

On the AR cloud display, there is an old man with a bright face, he has a trachea in his nose, and although his body cannot move, he still observes everyone present with his eyes.

He used all his strength to ask: "Where is Zhou Wujun?" I'm going to talk to him alone. ”

"I'm sorry, Chairman. He's been too busy lately, do you need a message from me? It was a young major who stood up to answer the question, his expression and movements showing confidence everywhere, and there was even a hint of disdain in his tone.

"It's not important, I just want to meet him."

"There's nothing we can do." The major said with his head bowed. Almost half of the people showed that they were snucker and had nothing to do with themselves, and those who did not dare to speak up hid themselves well.

But to their surprise, something happened.

The closed door was opened, and standing outside was the man the chairman had hoped for. He was already an old man in his prime, but his hair was black and shiny, and his body was very strong. He walked straight to the AR cloud display, then turned around and scolded those who were half-dead and half-alive, "Get all out of here!" ”

"Yes!" Everyone stood up, but none of them looked like soldiers, and they walked out one after another. Before leaving, the major glanced at him.

"People are questioning the ALC's Peace Tie program, and even though we publish the Explorer Fleet data every month, they are starting to disbelieve that this is the best reward for them," the chair said. We are wrong, we shouldn't be like this, we need to find a different way to explore the universe that is suitable for humanity. ”

Zhou Wujun asked, "What kind of road?" How do we do that? ”

The Chairman explained: "A vigorous and subversive scientific and technological revolution in modern physics. You and I both understand that if spaceflight remains stagnant at its current level, it will be impossible to fully understand the universe. ”

Zhou Wujun replied: "I will organize personnel to conduct scientific research, at least the speed of light flight will definitely solve it." ”

"Perhaps...... Maybe you can do it, or maybe we can only rely on explorers to find extraterrestrial civilizations to solve human problems. ”
