The town of Helong in my memory is always cloudy, and it will rain from time to time.

Mingyou and Lin Yan sat in the last row of the classroom, and when the teacher was writing, they would sneak a glance at He Qing, and she was always taking notes very seriously.

He Qing's health is not good, and her weaker appearance is often bullied by others, and since then, Lin Yan and Mingyou have become her bodyguards and have been taking care of her. Since then, the three have been inseparable.

When he was about to graduate from high school, Mingyou, who had excellent grades, was about to leave Helong to study in a big city, and they met together at Qingtan Lake, saying that they would compete to see who would swim to the other side first, and whoever would confess to He Qing first. But helplessly the cold water of the lake, they gave up the competition together.

He Qing sat by the lake with them, soaked her feet in the cool water, and chatted about her good wishes.

"I want to be a nurse, and I've been cared for since I was a child, so I want to have the opportunity to take care of more people."

"Won't you be tired in the future?"

"Don't be tired, just treat this thing as a happy thing."

"Then my happiness is to walk everywhere when I want to wander, and to have a place to settle down when I want to be stable."

"So...... How about having someone with you? ”

"Someone? It depends on who it is. ”

He Qing and Lin Yan were very happy when they talked, and then they remembered Mingyou beside him, and he looked at them gently and listened to their conversation.

"Mingyou, what about you?" Lin Yan leaned over and asked him.

"Me?" Mingyou thought for a moment, "I don't know what I want to do......" He hesitated for a moment, as if he was thinking seriously, "If I was given a goal, I would be able to accomplish it well." ”

"Huh." He Qing covered her mouth and snickered, then gave Lin Yan a look, "So, his grades are so good." ”

"Hmm. People with goals are indeed stronger than all of us. ”

"Where?!"

"Hahaha."

The laughter of the three resounded through the valley, and their feet continued to ripple on the silent surface of the lake. As the sound of water sounded, Mingyou lowered his head and saw a blistered white face under the water-

"Ahh With a gasp, Mingyou woke up and found himself at home, lying on a soft bed. He slowly got up from the bed, his forehead still aching, and on the couch at the other end, a man who sat quietly opened his eyes.

That's the face he saw in his dreams......

"Mr. Ming, are you awake?" She stood up and slowly approached him.

"Hmm......" Mingyou could clearly feel his heartbeat, still frightened at that moment in the dream.

"Do you need me to prepare breakfast for you?" She asked, smiling.

"What time is it?" Mingyou asked, the blackout curtains slowly moved, and the sun was already shining outside the window.

"It's nine o'clock."

"It's already nine o'clock?" Mingyou hurriedly got out of bed, but he was so dizzy that he almost fell down, but fortunately he was held up by her.

"Mr. Ming, be careful. You have a head injury, and you should not move too much. ”

Mingyou looked at her, and his nervous expression just now relaxed: "Thank you, it's just that I'm going to be late for work." ”

"Mr. Ming, I know you are in a hurry, but you also need to rest, do you need to take a leave of absence for you to take a good rest?"

"No, no, no." Mingyou waved his hand, "I still have a lot of things to do. ”

So he took a deep breath and began to get dressed and get ready to go to work: "So, why don't you help me make something simple and let me lead the way, okay?" ”

"Absolutely." She replied with a smile, then went to the kitchen to make some simple ones for him.

Mingyou felt that the wound on his forehead was indeed a little dull pain, especially after experiencing last night's dream, he hadn't remembered such a memory for a long time.

He was just about to settle down, but suddenly he remembered something, and quickly took out the tablet from his bag and examined it carefully. There had been some accidents yesterday, so he couldn't remember if he had updated CL-07's system last night, and he was relieved after checking and confirming that it had been updated.

Mingyou hurried out with breakfast, and when he was about to open the car door, she stopped him.

"Mr. Ming, your current state is not suitable for driving, so let me help you."

"No, it's okay." Mingyou smiled and replied, "I can drive autonomously." ”

With that, he got into the car, and CL-07 got into the car with him.

"I'll take you back to the hospital first."

"And when will your injuries be reviewed?" She asked with concern, "Do you need me to come to the company to change your dressing?" ”

"No, you don't." Mingyou looked at her from the rearview mirror, "My secretary will too." ”

"Hmm." She nodded.

The car drove smoothly on the road, and it was very quiet in the car.

"Mr. Ming, may I ask you a question?" That's when she spoke.

"You ask." Mingyou said.

"Who is He Qing?"

Mingyou was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly: "How do you know this name?" ”

"Last night, after you fell asleep, you called this name many times." She replied.

"Forehead......" Mingyou bit his lip, rubbed his nose unconsciously, and his eyes were still on the road ahead. She was a friend of mine that I had known for a long time. ”

"Have you lost touch for a long time?"

"Hmm...... Right. Mingyou replied.

"Oh." She also looked into Mingyou's eyes through the mirror, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked such a question. ”

"It's okay." Mingyou shook his head and gave her an understanding smile from the rearview mirror, "That means you're thinking." ”

"Thinking?"

"Yes, it also shows that my research is still improving."

"Mr. Ming, you seem to like your work very much."

"Yes." Mingyou couldn't hide his smile, "Especially when I first met you." ”

Their eyes met through a small piece of glass, and Mingyou's eyes were full of smiles, but he quickly turned to the front and breathed a sigh of relief.

After he returned CL-07 to the hospital, she carefully reminded him to take a break. It's really like two friends.

When Mingyou returned to the company, the secretary followed him into the office.

"Mr. Ming, how is your wound? Whether you need to take time off work and take more breaks. ”

"No, you don't." He looked at her with a smile.

The secretary noticed that although he was injured, he looked good, so he asked, "Mr. Ming, do you have anything to be happy about?" ”

"Huh?" Mingyou looked at her and smiled, "Yes, there is progress in the recent work, and we continue to work hard." ”

"Okay, Mr. Ming."

Seeing that she answered seriously, Mingyou leaned back in his chair and asked her to leave for a while.

In this EL series of robots, obedience is the first option. Before choosing "Ella" as his secretary, Myeongwoo imagined adding an "emotional setting" to her that would bring them closer together. However, in the absence of experiments, he did not verify or update the "emotion" he set, so it was just a little more "emotional" than the average EL robot.

Yes, that is, she will be more inclined when she treats her master.

This is not in line with the "equality" that robots should have, and maybe when she faces the next director, there will be deviations. Unless it is completely reset, there is a high probability of "infidelity".

Of course, this is Mingyou's speculation, and it is only possible that such a situation may happen.

However, if his research results show that robots can not only have feelings, but also think independently, then it must be more perfect.

There was a knock at the door of "Tuk Tuk Tuk", Mingyou raised his head and saw Kang Keming leaning against the door again, smiling maliciously.

"Mr. Ming, why don't you rest more if you are injured on duty?"

Mingyou glanced out the door, and from behind him, he could see the secretary looking at him helplessly, and then shook his head, it should not be uninvited, and he didn't let her approach.

"It's a small injury, and I still have a lot to do." Mingyou turned on his computer and prepared to start his work for the day.

Unexpectedly, Kang Keming walked in directly, sat down on the chair in front of him, and crossed Erlang's legs, it seemed that he was going to have a good talk with him.

"I also watched yesterday's press conference, and it's really good to turn a blind eye and avoid talking about this skill, no wonder Mr. Han values you so much now, not only is the research effective, but the speech is also quite exciting." Concomin said, beating his fingers on his knees.

Mingyou noticed it, but didn't care.

"Our work will indeed benefit the future development, and it will gradually prove that humans and robots can get along as equals."

"Equality?" Kang Keming laughed and pointed to his forehead, "Do you want to exchange this?" ”

Mingyou ignored him.

"Mingyou, I'll just tell you, maybe your research is right, robots with feelings can communicate with people with feelings, they can be more humorous, and they can be charming, but they are still machines." Concomic put down one of his legs and said seriously, "You are blurring the line between people and machines more and more, is that what you think are equal?" Why don't you want to think about it, why produce them? Is it to labor in our place, or to live in our place? ”

Mingyou's hand removed from the keyboard and rested on the table with his gaze.

After a moment of thinking, he raised his head and asked Kang Keming: "Mr. Kang, whether it is work or life, there is always a balance, if the robot and the owner live together, why can't they enjoy life together?" It entered the family, and it was a part of the family. ”

Kang Keming was stunned for a moment, and then burst into a burst of wanton laughter.

"Mingyou, you're naïve to think about it, I advise you not to be too obsessed with such thoughts, you have to be clear about the boundaries! Boundary! You know? ”

Condin got up from his chair and walked out the door. When Mingyou thought he was finally leaving, he turned around again and said with a smile, "I heard that you have been running to GL Hospital a lot lately to visit a robot?" ”

Mingyou didn't answer, just looked at him.

"What? Did you have a robot girlfriend so soon? After Concom's words, he laughed insolently again, and with such laughter, he finally left the office.
