A Bug’s Desire to Survive

Chapter 48: Robot Tutor (5)

Thackeray harassed Fei Xiu all afternoon, and after having a dinner, he finally reluctantly left.

Before leaving, he said cautiously: "Fei Xiu, no matter what your plans are in the future, don't forget that you still have brothers and friends."

"I know, thank you."

Watching Thackeray driving the shuttle in the distance, Fei Xiu stood motionless at the door.

Yuanchu slipped out of the room, poked his arm with the parts in his hand, and said, "I have no use for the remaining metal materials and spare parts. It's just a waste of them lying there. Why not do something else."

Fei Xiu came to his senses and asked, "What to do?"

"Televisions, washing machines, cleaning balls, air conditioners, alarms..." They were all listed one by one.

Fei Xiu lived like a primitive man, no wonder Thackeray disliked him so much.

"You know all these things?" Fei Xiu expressed doubt.

"The principles of general household appliances are not complicated. As long as you understand their structure, even children can assemble them by themselves."

"No." What really surprised Fei Xiu was, "As an auxiliary robot, don't you think you know too much?"

The reason why Kemal Company went bankrupt back then was not because they privately developed highly intelligent robots, but because once such robots were put on the market, many electrical appliance companies would go bankrupt!

“Isn’t it a necessary ability for assistant robots to be proficient in using and maintaining various household appliances?”

Fei Xiu: "..."

Fei Xiu followed Yuan Chu to the garage and received an electronic drawing.

"TVs have the most complete spare parts. Let's make a TV first." Today's TVs are light and compact, have voice-activated frequency modulation, projection and playback, and can be carried around and recorded.

The electronic drawings originally passed to Fei Xiu were of a TV model from more than ten years ago. The reason why this model was chosen was mainly to fit the personality.

Fei Xiu had nothing to do anyway, so he sat on the ground and assembled the parts with Yuan Chu. Many technology products now have common parts, with only slightly different core structures.

Fei Xiu was not interested at first, but accidentally catching a glimpse of the smooth movements of his robot not only aroused some fighting spirit, but his eyes became focused, and he studied the drawings carefully and studied them seriously.

Unknowingly, much of the night passed, Fei Xiu finally completed the core preparation and tried it out. The light was projected onto the wall, showing a black and white image.

Fei Xiu's lips curled up slightly. Although there were only black and white images for the time being, his preparation was not wrong. As long as the three primary colors were added, normal images would be played.

Looking up at Yuanchu, I saw that she was playing with a square instrument about 1 meter high. It looked like a washing machine. There was also a rolling ball at her feet. At first glance, it looked like Sa. Kree's mechanical pet is very similar.

"This is the cleaning ball. It's ready." Yuanchu said, "The washing machine is still being debugged. It will take about ten minutes."

It’s hard to finish the repair work on a semi-finished TV: “…”

Didn't we agree to make a TV set together? Why are you making your own cleaning balls and washing machines!

After initially debugging the washing machine, and then installing the metal casing, an ancient-looking washing machine is completed.

"Master, you will never wash your clothes by hand again."

Fei Xiu: "..." He was hit by his own universal robot and didn't want to speak at all.

"It's getting late, Master, go get some rest early." After saying this, Yuanchu ran to the corner, plugged in the plug, and quietly started charging.

Fei Xiu looked at her energy tank, only 5% energy was left.

"No. 1, I'm hungry." He suddenly said.

The electronic eye that had just been extinguished lit up again, and Yuan Chu pulled off the plug: "I'll go make you a supper right away. What would you like to eat, Master?"

"Dragon bone noodle soup."

"The dragon bone soup needs to be simmered for at least an hour. Master, are you sure you want to eat it?"

"Yes."

"Okay." Yuan Chu turned around and went to the kitchen, Fei Xiu followed behind her.

With 5% energy, it probably wouldn't last for an hour if it kept running. Fei Xiu was deliberately torturing his robot with bad intentions.

However, while always underestimating the intelligence of his robot, he unconsciously lowered his own IQ.

Yuan originally simmered the soup, then took out a cord from his waist, connected it to the power supply at the door of the kitchen, and started charging on the spot. A pair of electronic eyes flickered, entering a half-asleep and half-awake standby state.

Fei Xiu: "..." He forgot that making soup does not require much operation, and charging does not necessarily have to be done in the garage.

"No. 1." Fei Xiu's voice sounded again.

Yuan Chu's eyes lit up and she turned to look at him.

Fei Xiu knelt down and said in a serious and capricious manner: "The dragon bone soup is too bland, I will also add sweet and sour pork, green vegetables and flamingo eggs."

Original: "It's 2:37 in the morning. Eating too much can easily cause food accumulation, indigestion, and affect sleep."

"I'll go exercise after eating, and then catch up on my sleep after the exercise."

Yuanchu was silent for three seconds, then stopped charging again, turned around and slid out of the kitchen, heading straight to the garage.

Fei Xiu secretly thought: Are you angry? Give up the job? Can robots lose their temper

While he was thinking about it, Yuan Chu came out of the garage again, slid straight into the kitchen, took out the ingredients from the freezer, and began to prepare the food dutifully.

Fei Xiu inadvertently raised his eyes and saw that there seemed to be something pinned to the place where she was charging. Looking carefully, it turned out to be... a power bank? ?

Fei Xiu: "..."

His robot is so adaptable!

An hour and a half later, a bowl of braised sweet and sour pork, pan-fried flamingo eggs, green onions in clear soup, and steaming hot dragon bone noodles was placed on the table.

"Master, please use it slowly."

Fei Xiu was not hungry at first, but when he saw this bowl of noodles, he suddenly felt hungry. Picked up the chopsticks and started sucking heavily.

Yuanchu stood quietly aside, his blue electronic eyes flashing, looking at him like he was looking at a big domestic dog.

Fei Xiu, who thought he was the master, had no idea that he was the one being raised.

The sky turned white. Fei Xiu, who had eaten and drank enough, stood up contentedly and did a few stretching movements. His tight muscles showed graceful lines, full of a sense of strength.

"I'm going out for a run." Fei Xiu said hello and ran out with his long legs.

Yuan Chu cleared the table, returned to the garage, took off the makeshift power bank, plugged it back in, and turned off the electronic eye.

Finally I can recharge my batteries quietly.

It takes at least ten hours to fully charge the energy originally. Just to take care of Fei Xiu, she usually stops charging to 30% to 50% during the day.

When Fei Xiu came back from running, he habitually ran to the garage to take a look, then went upstairs to wash up, threw himself on the bed and fell asleep.

On the other side, Thackeray returned to the capital and narrated to his brothers the circumstances of his meeting with Fei Xiu.

"It's so miserable! The place where he lives is remote and poor, and his home doesn't even have a decent electrical appliance." Thackeray exclaimed, "The manor of several hundred square meters is empty, without protection or monitoring. There is no greenery, just like a tomb. Except for a half-broken robot, there is no one talking. I am sure that if he keeps living there, he will get autism sooner or later."

"No way?" A man wearing a mechanical prosthesis exclaimed.

"Why not? I also took a photo, you can see for yourselves." Thackeray asked his mechanical pet to bring up the photo. Fei Xiu's manor, the surrounding environment of the manor, the furnishings at home, and the half-broken robot... were all presented to everyone.

"Oh my God, Colonel Fei Xiu is living in such a miserable state now?"

"These furniture are all from decades ago, right? Why doesn't he get a new one?"

"Is this robot left behind by the previous owner of the manor? What's with the eye-catching color? Is the paint peeling off so badly?"

"Thacker, why didn't you persuade him to come back?"

"Why didn't I persuade him? But he didn't listen." Thackeray expressed helplessness.

"The college has a bright future. This time he was injured and retired, which is really a big blow to him." A middle-aged man wearing glasses lamented, "He should have a lot of savings, and his salary after retirement is also good, but he is completely He doesn’t know how to enjoy life. No, we have to do something for him.”

"Hubble, do you have any suggestions?" Thackeray asked.

"Why don't we pool some money and give each of us an electrical appliance?"

Appliances are not very expensive, but they can improve your life. Hubble's suggestion was immediately unanimously agreed upon.

Three days later, Fei Xiu was speechless as he looked at the six or seven large and small boxes sent from the capital and piled in the yard.

He and his robot had just finished setting up all the electrical appliances in his home, and those guys from Thackeray sent a new set.

"Are you surprised? Are you surprised? Don't be too moved, this is what brothers should do." Thackeray's message was played randomly.

Fei Xiu: To be honest, he was not moved at all!

"How to deal with these things?" Yuanchu asked.

"Let's move in. The house is big enough anyway, and it won't take up much space to put an extra set in."

"Okay." Yuan Chu neatly opened the box, then used her robotic arm to lift the electrical appliance that was taller than her, and carried it steadily into the room.

"Do you need help?" Fei Xiu leaned against the door and asked without sincerity.

While unpacking the second box, Yuan Chu replied: "My robotic arm can be used for about three days before it is scrapped. I hope the owner will purchase more advanced materials and parts and replace the two strong arms."

Her current robotic arm is a defective product made by Fei Xiu, a novice, using cheap materials. The reason it has lasted so long is because she has taken good care of it.

"I have already placed an order, and it will arrive in two days." His robot is now only 50% repaired, and many missing materials and parts need to be ordered separately.

"Thank you, Master." Yuan Chu transported all the electrical appliances into the house and placed them together with the electrical appliances they made by themselves.

Comparing the appearance and style, the former is cool and noble, exuding high-tech style; the latter is aged and has a sense of age that has gone through many hardships. Putting two styles of electrical appliances in the same room will be as awkward and cumbersome as possible.

Yuan Chu: "Master, No. 1 sincerely suggests that just one set of electrical appliances at home is enough."

Fei Xiu: "It's difficult to choose." One set is made by myself, which is of great significance; the other set is a gift from a brother, which is precious.

"We meet on a narrow road..." Yuan Chu issued a cold electronic voice, "The brave wins."

Appearance and style are not important, function and quality are important!

Although the original model used was more than ten years ago, the technical level is extraordinary.

However, Fei Xiu didn't know it. He just thought that his robot was out of date and had a mysterious confidence in his "backward" technology. In order not to hurt her, he said politely: "Let each of you keep half."

"No, only with competition can we make progress." Yuan Chu insisted.

Fei Xiu: "..." As a robot, is it really okay to make your own decisions

Does he want to protect the self-esteem of his robot

Forget it, since she has her own ideas, let's give it a try. Don't panic if you lose.

The author has something to say: Original: Naive master, do you have any misunderstandings about the "intelligence" of robots
