Just like the social division of labor of human beings, the androids of "Yoba Troops" also exist in various models due to different uses. B is a multi-function combat type, responsible for performing various combat missions; S is an intelligence type, providing support by hacking; O is a communication type, providing intelligence assistance in the base... But there are also some unknown models, such as test models A. Lab rats are like white mice, and they are processed immediately after collecting battle data. Another example is the special model E, which hides and obliterates its companions.
2B, its real number is 2E. On the surface, he is carrying out an investigation mission in the area, but his real mission is to hunt down "companions who know the truth" - to put it bluntly, 9S. 9S's curiosity is a bit too heavy, and the S-type android is good at discovering secrets. Even if he has not learned the truth for a while, he is still a high-risk existence to discover the truth.
There is no more dirty job than hunting the same kind. Every time he secretly kills his comrades, 2B bears a heavy mental burden. It's just that for an artificial person, the "silent command" that has been inscribed in it since it was created is difficult to change, which is a bit like the "biological instinct" of living things.
Spirit and instinct clash, gray fills 2B's life.
And when 2B developed a feeling called "like" to his hunted target due to his previous mission, the tragedy is about to be staged.
…
The door of the room opened suddenly, and 9S rushed in, followed by rummaging through boxes.
"9S? What's wrong?" 2B sat up from the bed and asked 9S, who already had affection in his heart but could only pretend to be indifferent.
"Hey... Ah, 2B, don't you know?! Something big happened just now!" If the other party is not the goddess in his heart, 9S should add a sentence "I can really sleep" to make fun of it.
"Could it be the two mechanical lifeforms that were born in the Mammoth Settlement before?!" 2B stood up immediately, the system in his body started automatically, and the two weapons originally placed by the bed floated behind her.
"No, no, it has nothing to do with mechanical lifeforms!" 9S waved his hands, then put on a bright smile and said loudly, "There are humans coming to the military camp~!"
"Human? How could it be possible..." 2B said to 9S enough words to surprise all the androids in this world, without saying anything.
Because she knew very well that the so-called "Lunar Human Conference" on the surface of the moon was nothing, and that human beings had long since died, so where can there be human beings.
"Haha~ 2B, your reaction is exactly the same as the commander~" 9S didn't realize what was wrong with 2B and the commander's reaction. After all, according to his idea, if the androids did not completely remove the mechanical lifeforms on the ground, human beings would not It should have come from the moon back to the ground.
"9S, forget it, don't make such a joke with the commander." Was 2B worried about 9S being punished, or was he just jealous? Maybe she doesn't even know it herself.
"It's not a joke! I just checked with the other androids in the military camp, and he is really a [human]... Although he calls himself a 'different world man', he says he came from another world, and he is not the same as the creation. The humans we came out have nothing to do with..." 9S tilted his head and said in confusion, because it was Zheng Tai's appearance and a little cute.
"What did you say?!" 2B took what 9S said to heart.
"Wow~ Even this reaction is the same as the commander! Could it be that your initial AIs are actually very similar?" It may sound a bit strange, but this sentence is a compliment.
"9S... Where is that person?" 2B finally got serious, maybe... She saw hope.
"He? He said we were too annoying. We ran away with Popolo and Sister Deborah, and didn't let us follow." 9S seemed a little frustrated, obviously he was the most human being among the androids. The curious one.
"...I still can't believe in the existence of humans." 2B lowered his head.
"Hehe~~ I still have this!" 9S carefully took out a small test tube from his pocket as if offering a treasure, which contained a small half-tube of blood - there were originally more, but it was a pity that an artificial man named "Ghostska" Grab half for research.
"Could it be that… !"
"This is blood drawn from him! The commander has sent someone to pick it up. I'm looking for something to store the blood correctly. The commander said that this thing is rarely used and is left here as a junk." This is the The reason for 9S rummaging.
"...I'll help you find it."
"Um!"
The original intention of 2B's mission is to "cover up the truth that human beings are extinct", but what if there is a human being alive outside
Does she... need such a dirty task
…
"What's the matter?" A2, who was sitting on the windowsill with long black silk legs, looked at Liz suspiciously.
She asked Liz to go to the camp to check her body, thinking it would be a long wait, because Liz kept asking questions of this and that along the way, and there would be a good place to get answers. Unexpectedly, Liz came out all of a sudden, and Sakuya and Sakuya were holding an old model android, just like kidnapping a hostage, and they chased after a vote of androids.
It's just that it doesn't look like kidnapping. The androids chased from the military camp did not attack, and the old model androids that were taken away did not have the tendency to struggle and resist.
"Because I was blocked and questioned, I couldn't get a physical examination report, so I'll carry these two girls back to you!" By the way, the android is much heavier than a normal human, and it's really not a problem to change to an ordinary adult man. Way to hold her and run.
Liz pointed, "Popolo, come on! Send the result to Miss A2!"
"...I'm Deborah."
Deborah, who was carried by Leeds and ran all the way, pointed out his identity, and obediently conducted wireless transmission, and A2 did not refuse.
The specific data comparison and component analysis are skipped, and the final result is "the highest similarity with the recorded cases is 93%", "the possibility of being a human exceeds 99.9%"
"It turns out... It's really human." Artificial intelligence will not make the conclusion that "it must be human", but no artificial person will believe the possibility of less than 0.1%.
"? No?" After waiting for a long time, there was no next sentence.
"What else?" A2 asked rhetorically.
"Ha~~" Liz instantly wondered, "Then what's the point of me running to get blood drawn?"
It actually makes sense. After confirming that Liz is a human, A2 has decided to protect Liz and perform the duties of an artificial human.
It's just that her character just doesn't like much nonsense, so she didn't say it.
"Okay..." The leader didn't play cards as usual, and the helpless Liz could only turn to the twin androids who were forcibly brought over by him. "Sorry, I forcibly brought you out, it's all right now~ You can leave~"
"… "
"… "
Sister Popolo and Deborah looked at each other and nodded at the same time.
"Master Leeds, is there anything useful to us? We want to be by your side."
"-Eh?"
In other words, Liz has forgotten why he came to this world...
