Chapter VII: Accidental Exposure
He used to be full of fantasies about the FΓΌhrer's home, and thought it would be as spectacular as a castle. But when she was there, she felt that the gap was too big. She looked at the ordinary six-story residential building in front of her.
"Your home is really plain." Xianxian sighed, "You must be an honest official." β
"It's nice to keep it simple. And it's just me, so I don't need to take up so much space. King explained with a smile.
"What floor do you live on?" Xianxian asked.
"On the first floor, you don't have to climb the stairs, it's very convenient." King stood in the doorway and looked up at the camera above the door.
I heard a "click" and the door opened.
"This door can be opened with facial recognition?" She walked under the camera and took a look.
"I'll help you set it up when I get back." King said with a smile.
"Black technology is convenience, and even the keys are saved." Xian Xian smiled, "Are the other heads of state in the same jurisdiction as here?" β
"Heimei's jurisdiction is similar to ours, and other jurisdictions are not very interested in developing technology." King replied.
"Black girl?" The name Lucy had mentioned before, "You have a good relationship with her?" β
"Is Xiao Xian jealous?" King asked with a smile.
"Why, I'm just curious about your relationship." Xian Xian lowered her head and followed him.
"Just a friend."
"Not a confidante?"
"It's not."
"It's good if not, lest she misunderstand me when I move in." Xianxian breathed a sigh of relief, if she offended the head of state called Heimei, her life would definitely be difficult.
"Are you worried about being misunderstood?" King looked disappointed, "All the clothes are in the closet in your room, and the duvet covers have been changed and renewed. Hot water is also ready, you can go take a bath and get a good night's sleep. β
"Is it just me and you at home?" She looked around and didn't see anyone else as soon as she came in.
"It's all intelligent, there's a robot butler. At this point he should rest in the charge. King explained.
"Okay, I'm still thinking that you can't do so many things in such a short time." Xianxian smiled.
"Xiao Xian, if you have anything unclear, you can find the robot butler, Jack." King admonished, "I'll be out right away, wait for me to get home." β
She nodded and went back to her room.
King walked into the room, changed his clothes and went out.
Xianxian took a leisurely bath, her thoughts returned to the past, and when she came to this era, she had always been trembling and did not dare to relax in any way. However, I don't know why, staying here at King makes me feel like I'm home. It was as if he was the family she hadn't seen for a long time.
"Family." Xian Yan muttered alone, "If I stay here, I will never see my family, right?" β
Xian Xian sighed and prepared the bath towel to get up, but found that the bath towel had forgotten to bring it in.
"Steward Jack, are you there?" Xian Xian shouted loudly in the direction of the door.
"Yes, hostess." Jack suddenly appeared at the bathroom door, "What do you command?" Need to prepare wine and music? β
Xian Xian was slightly stunned, King really enjoys it, and drinks red wine and listens to music?
"No need, I forgot to bring in my bath towel, please help me get it." Xianxian said loudly.
"Okay, wait a minute." Jack opened the door, placed the towel on the shelf next to the door, closed the door, and stood quietly at the door.
Wrap a towel in a towel and blow dry your hair slowly with a hair dryer. Waiting until her hair was half dry, she changed into silk pajamas.
"The fabric of this dress is so comfortable, it feels like I don't have any clothes on." She whispered.
"Your pajamas are made of the latest materials, and they are still in the research and development stage, with only a small number of samples." Jack's voice came from behind the door.
Xianxian was stunned, she didn't expect the robot butler's hearing to be so good, and her voice was obviously very small.
"Miss Nancy, Nighttime is ready for you." Jack said.
After working in a restaurant for a day, she was really hungry at this time. She opened the bathroom door and followed Jack.
She looked at Jack quietly. Dressed in a black tuxedo, a very standard butler dress. His skin looks close to that of a human, and his hair is very realistic. If she hadn't known in advance that he was a robot, she would have had a hard time discovering his identity.
She followed Jack to the backyard and saw the refreshments on the round table.
"It's better to drink some lavender tea at night to help you sleep." Jack picked up the teapot and elegantly poured the tea into the cup, "Please slow down." β
"Mr. Jack, may I ask you some questions?" She picked up the teacup and took a sip. Lavender has a calming and anti-inflammatory effect, and this aroma can indeed calm the nerves and relax people's spirits.
"It's my pleasure to answer your questions." Jack smiled and bowed.
It was only at this moment that Xianxian felt King's identity as the head of state. King lives in a very polite environment, and even though this room is ordinary, the people living in it are extraordinary.
"I'm a little curious about your life." Xian Yan said.
"I thought you wanted to know a little bit more about King." Jack was slightly surprised.
"Can you eat like a normal person?" "I heard King mention it before, you need to recharge and rest." β
Jack laughs and says, "I have two power systems in my body. One is the digestion of ordinary food into energy, and the other is the electrical system. β
"So, I can get energy from eating like a normal person." Jack said.
"May I shake your hand?" She looked at Jack's hand, and she wondered what the robot would feel like 100 years from now.
Jack reached out to her and took her into his arms. Xian Xian didn't react for a while.
"Don't move, someone is secretly filming." Jack said in her ear with his head down.
"Why would anyone take a candid photo?"
"King had many admirers and was very popular in the dynasty. And there are also many reporters who are squatting to find news. Jack sighed, he had made a mistake and shouldn't have let Nancy eat outside.
"So what do we do now?" Burnt depressed.
"I'll carry you in, you remember to block your face so that you don't get photographed." Jack hugged him in his arms, his face pressed against his chest as much as possible. Her unusual hearing allowed her to hear the sound of Jack's heart working. Although his body looks like a real person, Jack is indeed a robot.
Jack carried her into the house, closed the door, and let her go.
"You don't have to go out of this door for the next two days, and you can't even open the window." Jack said solemnly, "I must report this to the FΓΌhrer. β
"It is estimated that there will be a wave of media swarming tomorrow morning." Jack's head ached, "Miss Nancy, you can go back to the bedroom and rest." β
"Okay, I'm sorry for your trouble." Xian Xian's heart was a little flustered, and he couldn't imagine what the scene would be here tomorrow.
"King, some media secretly photographed Nancy." Jack dialed the built-in communication.
"I'll rush back at noon tomorrow, and you can help me contact the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and inform them that they will hold a media conference at 3 p.m. tomorrow." King commanded calmly.
"Is Xiao Xian okay?" King continued to ask.
"Miss Nancy has gone back to her room to rest." Jack said.
"You help me take care of her. I guess she's going to have a hard time falling asleep tonight. King instructed.
"Okay." Jack hung up the phone and went to the door of Burnt's room.
He knocked softly on the door, "Miss Nancy, are you asleep?" β
She looked at the ceiling in silence, and although she tried hard to count the sheep, she couldn't sleep. I feel that I am really in many disasters, and there are waves of unsettled and rising waves.
Jack heard the sound of Burnt tossing and turning on the bed. He crouched down and sat down against the door.
"I've been following King for twenty years. In the past twenty years, he has rarely gone home to rest. "When I heard that he was going to take you home, I was very surprised and delighted. β
"It turns out that this is still his home." Jack said sadly, "King has a very weak concept of home, and for him this is the place to come back once in a while. He spends most of his time in the institute. β
"Work is the meaning of his existence, he has no lovers, no family, and he doesn't even want to make more friends." Jack continued, "He's always been like a lonely king. β
"It's good that you showed up." The corners of Jack's mouth turned up into a smile of relief, "The working life of a robot is 30 years, and I don't have a few years left to take care of him." Can I ask you? β
She got up and sat down at the door. She never thought that a person with such a gentle smile would live so lonely.
"Do you know my true identity?" Detective asked.
"Well, I know it all."
"Then you should understand that King and I are ...... at all"
"Miss Nancy, love has nothing to do with identity. Love is love, and not love is not love. Please be honest with your heart. Jack snapped up and said, "If you're not motivated, don't give anyone hope." It would be cruel. β
"Now you may not have seen your heart clearly." Jack said seriously, "I just hope that the moment you recognize your heart, you can make the right decision." β
Xianxian sighed, now she is even struggling to live, where can she dare to hope for love? She's just using King. But why does the word "utilization" hurt her heartache? Was she feeling guilty?
"I'm not as kind as you think. I'm actually pretty selfish. Xianxian sighed.
"Man is not destroyed for his own sake." Jack laughed, "It's normal for canines and humans to be selfish. β
"What kind of feelings do you think I have for King?" She was suddenly a little curious.
"There is a deep bond between you, and I can't describe that feeling." Jack said.
"How could it be. I've only known him for a day. I can't talk about deep feelings. And even if I like his face very much, it's not as exaggerated as you say. β
"Face?" Jack laughed, "Don't say that to his face." β
"Isn't it superficial?"
"He doesn't like people talking about his looks." Jack laughed.
"It's not good to say? What kind of psychology is this. "Xianxian doesn't understand very much, King's appearance, even if he is not the head of state in the future, he can be a film and television star.
"I don't know why." Jack said, "You should know that King has been looking for his master, right?" β
"I've heard of it." Xianxian asked curiously, "Do you know about his master?" β
"Have you ever thought that you are the person he has been looking for?" Jack suddenly said that although he didn't know why King didn't have a showdown with her, judging by King's behavior, Nancy was the person he had been looking for.
"What did you say?" Xian Xian frowned. It's another world, and her King is still in the same world. The King here is looking for the master of this world.
But when she saw King, she would have a familiar feeling, as if different worlds could connect with each other. "So that's what you're referring to!"
"King doesn't seem to want to tell you the truth yet." "But he must have recognized you." β
"So, is King really King?" She cried with joy, even when she saw the King of the other world, she would feel relieved to know that it was still alive and well.
Jack was a little worried that he was revealing too much. Will exposing their relationship in advance affect their interactions?
Jack was nervous, it seems that he is really funny, and he has made 2 mistakes in 1 day.
"Can you talk more about King?" At this moment, my heart is extremely happy.
"What more do you want to know?" Jack asked helplessly.
"King's love history." Xian Xian said excitedly.
Jack frowned, "King has always been single and has no love history. β
"There should have been an underground love or something, it's impossible, my King is so handsome, how can he not find a partner!"
Jack was mad inside, not because he couldn't find a partner, but because he didn't want to find it at all.
"I used to think about finding a girlfriend for my King and having a baby. How cute! "Xian Xian remembered the old days," but the guy was very strange, seeing that the female dogs were far away, with a disgusted expression. β
Jack was stunned, it turns out that he hated the opposite sex from that time?
"Miss Nancy, do you have a history of love?" Jack abruptly changed the subject.
"How could I have it, I have to walk the dog every day and study, and I don't have a chance at all." Xianxian sighed, "I was finally admitted to W University, got rid of the clutches of my parents, and is about to usher in a new campus life, and have the opportunity to start a campus romance." As a result, I came here without any explanation. β
Jack laughed, "It's a fate. β
"Jack, are you really a robot? It feels like a real person, and it's full of emotions. "It's a bit puzzling.
"I'm a robot, but I have a human heart." Jack explained.
"The current technology can only ensure that the heart can survive in my body for 30 years. After 30 years, my heart would be damaged and I would fall into a coma. Jack patiently explained.
"Why is a human heart placed in a robot?" She was confused.
"Humans have been wiped out by canines, but King and the surviving human experts are working on how to resurrect them." Jack continued, "The flesh is dead, and they're going to reinvent it. β
"Why is King looking into this? What exactly is his purpose? Xian Xian's heart was disturbed, and she couldn't accept this kind of unethical and moral behavior.
"What the hell does King want to do?"
Jack sighed, "At first, he wanted to resurrect you. β
"What?" She was amazed.
"But he couldn't find you. Can't find your heart. Jack explained.
"And now? Are they still doing the resurrection of humans? Burnt asked.
"The project was put on hold, and I was the only successful experiment." Jack stated the facts.
The doubts in Xian Xian's heart became more and more, "Did the other heads of state know about these things he did secretly?" β
"Not many people know about this top-secret plan." Jack said.
"Then why did you reveal it to me?" She felt like she was in trouble again.
"I'm sorry." Jack sighed, "I just think that with you, King won't go astray." β
"Do you know what trouble King would get if these things were leaked out?" Xianxian yelled angrily.
"I didn't have a chance to talk about it to outsiders." Jack smiled wryly, "I can't get out of here. β
