So, can you give me a little more love?

Can you take one more look at me?

May I?

May I?

May I?

I beg you.

Volume Two: The War Against Extinction: Chapter 140 Three We All Have a Bright Future

Is Hong completely ignorant of this?

That's not necessarily true, otherwise she wouldn't have done what she did before to try to cure the cubs' psychological problems.

But has she really healed successfully?

Obviously, no.

It should be noted that even though it has been decades since Hong was born, she has six star fields under control, hundreds of interstellar warships, and a population of tens of billions of people under her rule, but in the final analysis, she is still a child at a young age. Period of omnic.

Although she is no longer as ignorant of emotional matters as she was when she was just born, she is still not mature enough to deal with emotions with ease.

Even in some respects, she might not be as good as some experienced true Neptunes.

As an omnic, most of her knowledge comes from related books and documents compiled by the old Catus and Jeffreys.Of course, most of the time, the decisions made by relying on those research results are correct, which are more accurate than the decisions made by ordinary people "by feeling".

But at some point, this will mislead her, making her make a judgment that is diametrically opposed to the truth.

Hong does know that Bai has some psychological problems, but from her point of view, this is not a serious psychological problem, it is just a product of the combination of childhood experiences and the suspension bridge effect - after all, Bai is more dependent on her and a little insecure There is no more performance than feeling.

Moreover, cubs more or less have this tendency, and she also knows that this is unavoidable, as long as she becomes her cub and accepts her so-called "doting" care, it is almost impossible not to appear Such a tendency—it’s just a little bit more obvious, it doesn’t affect my daily life, and I don’t have any extreme thoughts, it’s just a “small problem” no matter how you look at it.

Therefore, Hong has never thought about it from the beginning to the end. Maybe these are just minor problems on most cubs, but on a few cubs, these minor problems are not really minor problems.

They are just the tip of the iceberg of bigger problems.

This can't be blamed on Hong, if she is a "normal" omnic who has lived long enough, she will probably be able to detect something is wrong. Deception is absolutely intolerable behavior and should be dealt with by the internal counter-revolutionary unit.

No matter how smart the cubs are, they are just a bunch of well-protected minors after all. How could it be impossible to find out even the internal counter-revolutionaries?

But, just like her abnormal cub, Hong, she is not a normal omnic either.

For her, even if she notices this kind of behavior, it is just a little fun for the cubs. Not only will she not be angry, she will even be very happy-after all, this means that the cubs are starting to have their own Thinking about it, it is no longer her accessory. As a mother, isn't this something she should be happy about?

The only problem was that she really didn't notice it at all, and was even misled in a completely wrong direction, thinking that her cubs didn't have any psychological problems.

"Just" a little bit dependent.

"The cubs are very happy these days."

With one hand resting on her chin, Hong was browsing the data on the tablet with the other. The silver-gray tail behind her was swinging rhythmically, showing that her owner was in a happy mood.

After finding out the "truth", she no longer has to worry about the future. She has become closer to the cubs in the past few days—or, in other words, a little more "unscrupulous". Do it without any scruples, some things that I dared not say before, can now be said without psychological barriers.

There is no need to do any psychological evaluation, and it can be seen with the naked eye that these cubs are happier than before.

It's not that they were unhappy before, that's impossible, no matter how much Hong cares about psychological problems, it's impossible to make the cubs sad because of "treatment" - then it's just the end of the matter, no matter how stupid she is Will do this kind of thing.

However, although the cubs lived happily in the past, she could always feel that the cubs had a little sense of insecurity, as if they were afraid that one day they would suddenly lose her, which caused her to always have a kind of, cubs The cubs catered to her feeling in order to keep her, which made this feeling of happiness almost meaningless.

Before this, she always thought it was a psychological problem, the "result" caused by over-reliance, so she made a little distance before, and at the same time deliberately let the cubs have more normal social interactions with other clansmen, increasing their own life. Proportion, avoid letting "red become the whole of their life".

This decision was not a problem when Hong just adopted them. After all, in Hong’s view, they really had some psychological problems because of their birth at that time, but after curing that part of the problem, she mistakenly believed that the rest The problem can be solved in the same way, so that the logic of her behavior has not been changed.

This instead leads to new problems.

In other words, this is not a "result", but a "cause".

It seems that her research on psychology is still too shallow.

Hong's slender fingers unconsciously drew circles on the tablet.

But it doesn't matter, it shouldn't be too late to correct it now.

she thought so.

--------

Apparently, they succeeded.

Bai's thinking was correct, Hong just wanted to heal them, so she kept a little distance on purpose - she just wanted them to be healthier and happier, under their plan, those they once had, What was lost later came back.

Even, not only lost, they also got more, much more than they imagined.

Just because they "did" what Hong wanted to do - a healthier and happier life, nothing more.

Although the process is despicable, the result is too sweet to give up.

For most Zai Zai, this is a happy ending, the last worry between Hong and their relationship is erased, and they just need to continue their happy and beautiful life.

Their psychological problems, which in the eyes of ordinary people are so serious that they can be called pathological, will "no longer exist"-as long as Hong doesn't take the initiative to discover it and try to treat it, everything can continue to be maintained.

It's not how well they hide it, but Hong's behavior of trying to treat it is the root of these problems.

When facing the psychological problems of the cubs, Hong always thought that only by curing them and restoring their mental health can the cubs become happier and healthier. For this reason, a little "short pain" is Insignificant.

They also believe that Hong fully knows that she can choose to let the problem go, or even intentionally catalyze the problem, and let her be their only antidote, making them completely inseparable from herself.

It's just that Hong feels that this is "wrong", and she thinks it will make the cubs suffer, so not only will she not take the initiative to do this, but she will also try her best to prevent it from happening naturally.

But what about the facts?

Cubs don't care about that at all.

Even, in their hearts, they are extremely eager for this to happen.

Because doesn't this mean that Hong hopes to completely restrain them and make them unable to leave her forever?

Isn't that a good thing?

If it's just that, then forget it, they don't have to ask Hong to do this, the most fatal problem is that Hong thinks that she can treat them with "short pain" and make them return to "normal".

Hong's estimate of her status in their hearts was really too low.

Just like decades ago, because of a trivial matter that was completely worthless to Bai, Hong was timid, which caused her to have so many misunderstandings—the reason why she was sicker than other cubs Heavier, a large part of the reason is because of that experience.

No one knew how scared she was during that time.

Even though so many years have passed, she now understands that it is impossible for Hong not to love her, and these are just scaring herself, but it still planted a seed in her heart——the more she thinks back During that experience, the more she wanted more, she wanted more to make up for the fear in her heart.

Even if the price is getting deeper and deeper.

Before the plan started, in order to prevent her plan from being leaked, causing Hong to discover the extent of her illness and start a more extreme treatment plan, when Bai was looking for an accomplice, he hoped to find someone like her who was mentally abnormal and would do anything for her feelings. Cubs.

In the beginning, she had a hard time finding it. Except for the few cubs that she smelled "smell of the same kind" in previous exchanges, the other cubs seemed normal, with normal social interaction, normal life, and even Normal interaction with other cubs is really nothing but a little bit of over-reliance, without any psychological problems.

This even made her want to give up this plan for a while. After all, if the number of people is too small, this plan cannot be successful-after all, if you want to deceive an omnic, even if it is an omnic that is completely in its infancy emotionally, It is also extremely difficult, so difficult that unless most people cooperate, it is impossible to succeed.

Until one day, she suddenly found something wrong, why everyone behaved so normal?

It’s not that everyone must be abnormal like her, but she remembered that during the period when she was adopted by Hong, everyone felt very insecure. The more she realized the happy life now, the more she was afraid that this was just a picture of " Experience card", at that time she could clearly feel that everyone was similar to her, maybe a little better, but definitely not much better.

Why now, except for a few that she can vaguely feel, everyone else has become normal?

Have they really become normal?

Or...

So, she decided to take a little risk—of course, she didn't choose to ask directly, because the risk of exposure would be too great, but she would be found if there was a normal cub.

She just chooses to ask each cub a question - If one day, you have to choose between two futures, one is that you will always occupy the most important position in the heart of the person you love the most, and the other person will always love you She will never forget her, but the price is that you die immediately; the other option is that you can continue to live normally like ordinary people, but the price is that you will become complete strangers from now on, and the other party will forget everything between them , and there is no chance of meeting again.

For normal people, there is a high probability that they will choose the second option, right?Maybe a few people will choose the first option, but it must be a minority - this is the instinct of biological survival, not to mention, it's not about letting them exchange lives with the person they love the most, but just forgetting this relationship, what do you think Very few people would choose the first option.

However, every time she raised this question, she could clearly find that the other party's eyes had changed.

She is familiar with this feeling.

It is the feeling of discovering the same kind.

At first, she just wanted to find some "partners" to carry out the plan. Later, she found that there seemed to be many "partners" with the same idea around her. Finally, she found out.

The entire Catus is all of the same kind.

All are "partners".

Without exception.

Hong thought she was hiding well, and the cubs at most felt something was wrong, but it was almost impossible to find that she was deliberately controlling the distance and performing "treatment". However, it turned out that she was wrong.

No one didn't find out.

It's just that everyone, like her, thinks that only herself, or a few cubs are abnormal, and everyone else is very normal, so they are trying hard to disguise and hide in order not to be exposed.

If Bai hadn't come out to break the information asymmetry this time, maybe they could hide like this forever-after all, as long as Hong doesn't take the initiative to make troubles, then they are really just ordinary cubs, and their psychological problems will never be solved. It manifests itself, and may even disappear completely and heal completely in a certain day in the future with the passage of time.

But now, things have changed forever, and they are surprised to find that everyone is the same.

They are all the same.

Now, the plan has been successful, and from the moment Hong changed her mind, they were the winners.Once the way of thinking changes, even if they show something wrong later, Hong will only think it is normal-this is the inertia of thinking, just like how they did Hong before, it felt "abnormal", But now the situation has just been reversed.

As long as they keep their mouths shut—as long as the plans don't leak out, everything will be fine.

In fact, what they don't know is that from this moment on, even if the plan is leaked, Hong will never use the previous "treatment" plan again.

The reason why Hong did that before was because she thought it was a "little short-term pain". She didn't realize how deeply it affected the cubs, and she even naively thought that the cubs would never find out These.

Because no matter what, they are just a group of underage cubs, not to mention, they are still living such a happy life under their own care, there must be minor problems, but how could such serious problems exist.

But now, even if Hong really finds out, she will definitely realize that the problem is so serious, and how much her previous actions have hurt them, and even her clever "treatment plan" has become The culprit of the deepening problem.

She is such a doting cub, how could she bear it.

Don't let the problem develop, let the cubs drink poison to quench their thirst, let her be the only antidote for the cubs, in the final analysis, it is Hong's just to be worthy of her conscience-she doesn't want to rely on this "sneak in" method. It's just to lure the immature cubs.

But if it was just to satisfy her own conscience, the price would be the cubs' extremely lacking sense of security, their fear, fear, and the "normal" words they pretended to satisfy her.

She definitely won't.

However, no matter how distorted the process is, no matter how strange the way to achieve the goal is, at least, from the perspective of the result, it is still very beautiful.

Hong no longer has to deliberately keep a distance because of various concerns. Now she can get along with the cubs without any scruples and enjoy a good time; and the cubs, they finally got what they wanted most .

Although there are some problems in the process, it doesn't matter, because what they get now is Hong's true feelings.

A relationship that is no longer hindered by meaningless scruples.

This is the best future for them.

--------

PS: When I was writing this paragraph, a lot of plots in strange documents kept popping up in my mind. The reason why the relationship between Hong and the cubs is relatively normal is that Hong is an omnic, or a very A powerful omnic that can give full affection to all cubs determines that many strange plots will never appear.

However, if Hong is just an ordinary, weak girl with limited energy and can only be fully loved by one person, it must be much more interesting—for example, she was caught and pushed down on the bed by the cub after playing off What.

Volume Two: The War Against Extinction: Chapter 140 The Calm Before the Storm

She has no way of knowing what the future will be like, good or bad. Reality is not a computer program, nor is she Laplace's demon, one of the four great beasts of physics, who wants to make accurate predictions about the long-term future. The difficulty of predicting is no different from the characters in the book jumping out and beating the author.

But one thing, Hong is very clear - if the threat of extinct units is not eliminated, then they will have no future.

There is no possibility of a "win-win" compromise between the two sides. This war is destined to have only one winner. The winner gets everything and the loser loses everything.

The winner will only be her.

The retreat of the extinct unit is just the last calm before the storm. It is different from the previous situation where the two sides fight and "click to stop" and continue to shrink back to develop. This time it will definitely launch a general attack again in a short time, maybe a few days Days, maybe half a month, but never too long.

Prior to this, the extermination unit and the former Tiexin were one-way transparent to humans and their information. Maybe because of the existence of Hong on the Cat League, they could not get any very critical and important information, but for humans, they The intelligence advantage is too great.

With the support of the spy network, the opponent can leisurely formulate various actions based on the intelligence. If it fails once, they will temporarily retreat and look for new opportunities, and they can be said to be blind to the enemy's intelligence. Knowing nothing, they can only defend passively.

In this way, Tie Xin, and even the later unit 01, will naturally have enough patience to operate, even if each action can only gain a little advantage, but as long as the time is long enough, sooner or later they will be able to operate a large enough to crush. advantage out.

Although this also made them miss some opportunities that might be able to directly win humans. In human terms, this omnic has a great advantage but is too prudent, but it is undeniable that this is indeed the least risky and safest. The most "omnic" way.

But this time, with the same problem, the situation is not what it used to be.

After Crimson turned from the dark to the bright, as the former center of the spy network, she provided the cat alliance and mankind with a huge amount of precious information that is difficult to measure in value-not only did they unplug the intelligence network in the human territory, but also let the other party's intelligence " The situation of "unilateral transparency" has become history, and they also obtained the detailed content of almost all the plans related to them from Unit 01, which made the conspiracy that the other party had planned for a long time self-defeating.

Although the advantages accumulated before are still there, the opponent can no longer rely on this method to accumulate more advantages—with the assistance of Crimson, I want to repeat it to humans who are already extremely vigilant The same plan is almost impossible.
