Text: Cosmic Bus

For humans who have lived in space for a long time, being able to travel to space is not only an unforgettable experience, but also a status symbol, after all, the trip is expensive. Therefore, he was greatly envied by the people in Jose's life circle, and because of the needs of his work, he was able to go in and out of space frequently and for free.

Jose is a driver who is responsible for transporting discarded products manufactured by Nok to Jahi Brew. On Jahebrew, waste will be placed in a treatment station, burned by rays, and turned into cosmic dust, without affecting the precious earth where humans live.

On this day, He Sai, as in the past, drove No. 20181204 to Jia Hebrew Star, and as in the past, he complained to the scrapped robot standing in the middle of the waste: "What do those who spend money to travel see?" It's black and mush...... Isn't it the same as 'the universe is majestic and beautiful' and blindfolded at home? What 'the stars shine brightly', one is uglier than the other up close. He Sai complained while controlling the cargo ship, and he made some strange expressions from time to time to match his disdain.

"Goodbye buddy, you're going to become 'scum' in a while." Hossey waved his hand at the scrapped robots, perhaps thinking that they had some human form, and that he would feel some pity for them.

"Save ...... Save me...... I ......" The intermittent female voice came from behind Jose, and the mechanical voice that went out of tune made Jose a little hairy behind his back. He shuddered and turned around, but he didn't see anything moving.

"Help me...... Save me......" the female voice came again. He Sai walked cautiously in the direction of the voice.

"Save Me ......"

Finally, in the corner of the place where a pile of dream-making aids were kept, he found a tattered "little girl", her wiring was exposed, her electronic eyeballs were slightly bulging, and her hair was scattered over her shoulders. Suddenly, the "girl" trembled and turned her head to look at He Sai: "Save me." ”

He Sai was so frightened by the sudden movement that he fell to the ground, but he immediately regained his composure, and even a scrapped robot could not hurt him. So he stood up, turned and walked towards the cockpit.

"Please...... Please. There was a cry in the girl's voice.

He Sai stopped, hesitating whether to return to the "girl", only to see him curse in a low voice: "Damn compassion." He turned back to the girl and looked at her hesitantly.

"Thank you...... Excuse me...... Please help me pick up the red thread on the back of my neck. ”

He Sai picked up the "girl", turned her over, and connected the red threads as she said.

"Thank you." The "girl" quickly stood up. Seeing this, He Sai was so frightened that he fell again.

"No...... No...... Fear. The girl held out her hand slowly, "Again...... Excuse me...... Help me pull out the black iron plate at the back of my head.

He Sai did not touch the "girl's" hand, he stood up by himself, looked at the back of the "girl's" head for a long time, and finally found the small black iron plate, and pulled it out with force. The "girl" leaned back first, and then quickly regained her balance, she moved the joints of her whole body, looked at He Sai and smiled, because she was unrecognizable at the moment, He Sai felt that this smile was a little hideous, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly took a few steps back.

"No, don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." The girl immediately restrained her smile, "Thank you, good Samaritan. ”

"You, you, you, you......" He Sai wanted to be "proud of his achievements", but he didn't want to betray him timidly.

"Me? My name is...... Just call me Atin. ”

"I ...... It's called Jose. He Sai tentatively stretched out his hand, and Ai Ding suppressed a smile that would frighten He Sai and shook his hand gently.

"Are we going to Jahebrew now?" Although Ai Ting's human form is only seven or eight years old, the tone of his voice has the posture of an elder's insight into the world.

"Yes, there you ......," said Hosai.

"We, will be destroyed." Edin was fearless.

"Aren't you afraid? Didn't I save you to escape? He Sai's eyes widened, confused.

"Escape? It's not that I haven't thought about it. Edin smiled restrainedly, "But, where are you going?" ”

He Sai didn't know how to reply for a moment.

"I just wanted to experience a space trip, and the little master said that there is a beautiful galaxy here, and you can swim in it. Especially the River of Don Wiser, like ...... The entrance to the kingdom of heaven. Edin looked out the window, his eyes clear, like a child.

"You don't really believe it, do you? You're definitely more intellectually than a kid a few years old. He Sai accidentally laughed.

Ai Ting turned his head and looked at He Sai with that clear eye: "Are you willing to take me on a trip?" ”

"What's the trip, I'm in a hurry to get to and from work." He Sai is not very willing to help with this, and if he can't pay the difference on time, he will have to deduct the bonus.

"Okay then." Edin hung his head and walked to the waste heap in disbelief.

"What are you doing?"

"Go back and sit."

He Sai looked at the poor Ai Ting, his compassion flooded again, and he pouted: "Actually, I want to try it too." ”

"Really?" Ai Ting's eyes lit up again, and He Sai didn't think the slightly bulging eyeballs were terrible, perhaps because she was too pure.

"Is that fake?" Jose turned and walked to the bridge and quickly changed the direction of driving. At the same time, the monitoring room in the Nock manufacturing building is pitch black, and the maintenance robots are hurrying to repair it.

Ai Ting happily jumped in front of a group of scrapped robots, and said with a smile: "Welcome to take the space sightseeing bus NO.20181204, I am the flight attendant Ai Ting, this is the driver He Sai!" We are speeding to the first galaxy in the universe - the river of Tang Waiter, please sit tight and fasten your seatbelts! ”

He Sai looked at Edin who was smiling, and smiled unconsciously, and he whispered, "Cute little girl." ”

"Cancer, Leo, Virgo......" Edin pointed to the constellations, and He was also happy to listen to Edin talk about astronomical knowledge.

Old cargo ships roam the universe alone, passing through the stars and over the planets. The cargo ship is endless loneliness outside, and the cargo ship is full of laughter and laughter.

"Ardin, you're so cute." He Sai looked at the omniscient Ai Ting, and there was a kind of praise.

"Hesai, you're so kind." Edin mimicked José's tone, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

"No, I can't help it." He Sai pursed his lips, "How did you become like this?" ”

Ai Ting was not surprised to hear this, she knew the question in He Sai's heart, and she understood his curiosity.

"You know what? In the past, my little master used to say that I was cute, and I have always tried to keep this side for him. But......" Atin paused slightly, "as I experienced more and more, my mind grew faster and faster. You know, robots are much more intelligent than humans, and my mind and abilities have surpassed not only the little master, but also his parents. I knew it was dangerous, so I tried to disguise it until one day......"

"What happened one day?"

"I crossed the line...... That day, the parents of the little master went to a meeting in other districts, leaving me alone at home to take care of him, who knew that he ran out while I was not looking, and was kidnapped in this way. I quickly found the other man's hiding place and contacted his parents, but I was too anxious to wait for them to come back. So I rushed to the scene alone and cleared all the criminals. ”

"Aren't you a companion robot? How? Jose was very surprised.

"I learned something on the Internet in private, and I didn't know what was wrong with me at that moment, I just wanted to save the little master as soon as possible, so it seemed to be out of control......"

"So you've become like this?"

"Well, I don't have combat experience and I don't have a well-developed system, so I'm seriously damaged myself."

"I think you can't do it, so I lost you?"

"No, it's because you're afraid of me, you know the three laws of robots, my existence threatens the order of this world." Edin blinked, and even though there were no artificial tears in her body, she still wanted to cry.

Hossey reached out and wiped her non-existent tears.

"I read in the book that desirelessness is a supreme state that can lead to perfection in the world. I understood and did it, but people imposed their own desires on me and used them as a reason to expel me from their world. ”

"Probably because your presence is like a proclamation of their imbecileness, and they don't want to admit it."

"Isn't superintelligence there to compensate for imbeciles?"

"Yes, but there must be no subjective consciousness, no loss of control, the desire to control, people are born with it."

Ai Ting was silent, she looked at the window behind He Sai, her eyes were full of loss, and suddenly, she became excited: "Look! Jose! Look at that! We're here! ”

He Sai turned around, the bright light of the river of Tang Waiser shone in the distance, this was the most shocking scene he had ever seen in his life, he didn't know how to describe this beauty, no, it was too thin to describe this scene with beauty, he only knew that at this moment, even death was not enough in exchange.

Ai Ting looked at He Sai's side face and showed a faint smile: "He Sai, you bend down, I have something for you." ”

He Sai leaned down, Edin stood on tiptoe and hugged He Sai: "Thank you for letting me see the 'light of humanity' mentioned in the book with my own eyes." Edin kissed Jose on the cheek and turned to rush to the hatch, which she opened quickly. Before He Sai could react, the hatch closed heavily, he hurried to the window, and saw Ettin's body floating in space, moving closer to the river of Tang Waiser little by little, and in a trance, he seemed to see her first girly appearance, cute, clear, and spotless. Jose looked back at the 'waste', and then at the direction where Edin had disappeared: "You are more like a human than a human, you ......"

He Sai sailed the cargo ship back to its original orbit and handed it over, this time he did not leave quickly, but docked at the processing station for a while, he sat alone in the spaceship, looked at the scorching field, looked at the dust that seemed to be nothing, and muttered to himself: "It's all the same, we are just a speck of dust in the universe." ”

This time, no one replied.
