Bionic Era

Chapter 5: Bury the carp

Views:

Blood stains are really troublesome to deal with.

To make matters worse, the entire second bedroom needed to be redecorated.

Lu Wen tore off the bloody wallpaper and burned them still in the fireplace.

Thick smoke rose into the sky on this early spring night. Fortunately, there were few people nearby and burning fireplaces was common, so it would not arouse anyone's suspicion.

As for the blood stains in other places, they need to be cleaned slowly.

The night passed in a blink of an eye.

The next day, the sun rises in the east.

"Bah-"

Lu Wen opened the curtains in the living room to make it look less gloomy.

In this world where technology is so advanced, smart homes are not used.

Lu Wen remembered that in his previous life, his entire home was equipped with a smart home. All he had to do was shout: "Love your classmates, open the curtains."

The curtains will slowly unfold.

He looked at Li Yu who was slowly walking down from the third floor and said: "I need to pay for permission. The blood stains on the wall cannot be completely removed. I want to go to the city to buy some wallpaper to cover it."

"No problem, thank you for your hard work!"

Li Yu smiled and took out his mobile phone and clicked a few times.

At the same time, a message came from Lu Wen's original functional chip.

[Payment permission has been opened]

[Account owned by: Employer Li Yu]

[Balance: 4913676]

Rich people!

What kind of business does this girl do

As a mobile Android machine, Lu Wen expressed heartfelt emotions.

After all, I was a hairless programmer in my previous life, but the money I put together was not enough for a down payment.

After making two simple breakfasts, Lu Wen was ready to go out.

"Take your keys with you, don't lose them."

Li Yu put a bunch of keys in Lu Wen's hand and said softly.

Just looking at her appearance, this girl is completely cute and gentle.

But Lu Wen remembered that lyric.

The most fascinating of the most dangerous!

"Do not worry."

Lu Wen smiled and opened the door.

After walking out of the villa and bringing the door over, he let out a long sigh of relief.

"Normal people living in such a dark and depressing villa will become sick if they live there for a long time!"

As far as the eye can see.

The sky is a little gray and the clouds are thick, but at least there is sunshine.

The morning breeze caressed his hair, and the weak sunlight shone on him.

Lu Wen really wanted to leave and just slip away, but he could only think about it.

But he can't do whatever he wants until the circuit breaker is figured out.

"Woof woof!"

The old lady's border sheep was digging something on the nearby lawn.

Farther away, the old lady was drying her clothes in the yard.

Lu Wen called a taxi, but the car hadn't arrived yet.

Out of curiosity, I walked over to the border collie and took a look.

"Isn't this the carp I got rid of yesterday?"

Many dogs have the habit of burying food.

From the looks of it, this border collie regards this carp as its food, and is about to dig a hole, bury the carp, and dig it out after a while.

Lu Wen has been wrapped very tightly, but the dog's nose is so sensitive.

"Didi—"

The sound of a horn came from the street.

Lu Wen turned around and saw that the taxi had arrived.

The driver is also a bionic man, Bilan Company's E25, a public service model. Thousands of E25s all have the same face.

Lu Wen is different.

He is custom made and one of a kind!

"Get in the car."

"OK."

Lu Wen opened the door, sat in the passenger seat, and fastened his seat belt.

The vehicle starts.

Through the car window, the world began to slowly recede in his eyes.

The suburbs are flat terrain, stretching as far as the eye can see, surrounded by green lawns and occasionally low hills.

On both sides of the road are villas in twos and threes.

About twenty minutes later, the taxi arrived at the edge of the city.

"Mowu City."

Lu Wen glanced at the road sign.

Towering chimneys rise from the ground one after another. At the edge of the city, they surround the entire city like pillars holding up the sky.

Thick smoke billows.

Lu Wen finally understood why the sky in this world was always dark and gloomy.

The taxi drives towards the city center.

There are fewer chimneys.

Gray high-rise buildings stand silently in the somewhat foggy sky, like lonely giants.

The huge colorful neon lights are slightly blurred in the fog.

The dreamlike holographic projection played some kind of advertisement, and the black rigid airship passed through the projection and sailed into the distance.

"Blue's new generation of housekeeping android E09 can meet most of your daily needs..."

A soft female voice came from far away.

Eighty years ago, Bilan Company was established.

On the day of its establishment, the first android A01 to pass the Turing test appeared in front of the world.

Two weeks later, Xinhong Company was established and launched the first-generation bionic human that also passed the Turing test.

The red and blue era begins.

Nowadays, bionic people have appeared in all walks of life.

The fifth-generation bionic humans are almost identical to humans in appearance, touch, and daily communication.

If it weren't for the electronic bracelets on their hands that marked the identity of the androids, they could completely integrate into the normal crowd.

"call-"

A few newspapers were floating randomly on the dimly lit street.

People bundled up in their clothes and came and went in a hurry.

A slovenly homeless man picked up the newspapers, covered himself with them, pressed them tightly with his hands, and leaned against the street corner.

At first glance, the whole street is full of people like this living on the streets.

On the big screen in the high-rise building on the street, countless news items are scrolling.

"The crematorium employee was pushed into the incinerator by his android colleague while taking a nap... "

"The federal unemployment rate has reached 28%, and countless people are living on the streets."

"More than 100,000 people demonstrated in front of the Parliament, demanding that bionic humans be banned from working in the construction and financial industries..."

"E24-0007474741, the fifth-generation bionic man of the Blue Company, awakened his self-awareness, and the circuit breaker failed. He violated the first principle of bionic man. He injured his employer and then fled. The parliament has dispatched an executive officer to trace his whereabouts."

“…”

The defective rate of Bilan and Xinhong is controlled between 0.05% and 0.07% all year round.

It is this defective rate of less than 0.1% that causes countless android awakening events every year.

Many people are wondering whether the awakened android is an AI with incorrect coding, or is it a life form capable of independent thinking

"The androids took my job and I'm now penniless and homeless."

"I need 5 yuan to buy a bottle of beer."

“…”

In front of the wanderer, the twisted words on the cardboard flashed in Lu Wen's eyes one by one.

Many years ago, it was not necessarily your peers who defeated you.

Now, it’s not necessarily the same person that beats you.

"boom!"

A body fell from the sky and hit the dark street.

Blood slowly flowed along the cracks in the floor tiles.

The people coming and going just paused, few even glanced here, and then hurriedly left.

Suicide is nothing new.

Lu Wen was sitting in a taxi, and the sensor in his eye captured the scene.

It was a man in a suit and tie.

It is a liberated soul.

“As a kid, you could get happiness by jumping down three steps.”

"When I grow up, I want to climb from the 30th floor..."

Internal investment has passed, investment is welcome
