War Paradise

"Wait a minute, let me slow down..."

Facing the strange situation, Zhou Tianhao was still at a loss. While watching out for the strange housekeeping robot, he slowly asked: "What is going on here, who are you?"

According to what he knew, Lin Chi should be living alone. In that case, the existence of the self-proclaimed "housekeeping robot" who opened the door for himself seemed a bit abnormal.

——Is someone remotely controlling? Or……

While thinking about it, Zhou Tianhao didn't put down the electric baton in his hand and stared at the housekeeping robot vigilantly. Wait for the other party to answer.

The robot did not answer the question about its own identity, but shook its postbox-shaped body, and continued to emit electronic sounds through the speaker:

"His consciousness may be trapped in the virtual space."

Consciousness trapped in virtual space?

Hearing this, Zhou Tianhao was stunned for a moment, and then immediately said: "How is it possible? The brain imaging game compartment has safety measures..."

——The brain imaging equipment on sale now adopts advanced security measures. Tragedies such as "ten thousand people are trapped in the game, and the brain will burn when they die in the game" are no longer possible. Up.

However, in a "certain situation", the consciousness of the device user may indeed be harmed. But that is...

"He entered the data channel?" Zhou Tianhao frowned.

Hackers tried to forcibly pass through the data channel, and as a result, news of "disappearance of souls" appeared every year. Although Lin Chi doesn't look like someone interested in hacking, Zhou Tianhao knows very well-he didn't know Lin Chi's preferences after just reconnecting with that guy.

Isn't that kid really entering the data channel?

"Yes it is."

When Zhou Tianhao was thinking about it, the housekeeping robot had already given a positive answer: "And... he was not able to come back."

"No?" Zhou Tianhao looked at the game warehouse in the corner in surprise, and then looked back at the housekeeping robot: "Can you show me the evidence that convinces me?"

——In the current situation, it can only be seen that Lin Chi has been playing games for ten consecutive hours, and he can't see what that guy is doing in the game cabin. For professional gamers who make a living by playing games, playing for ten hours of games is commonplace, and it's not uncommon at all.

"Please trust me." said the housekeeping robot.

"If you do this, I'm going to call the police, okay?" Zhou Tianhao said as he took out his cell phone, he was about to press the three numbers that people all over the country knew.

He was going to threaten the other party, but he heard the housekeeping robot make a serious voice: "If you call the police, you will also be arrested. This is an act of breaking into a private house."

"Damn, what's a joke... I'm a regular office worker!" Zhou Tianhao couldn't help but scolded.

"You broke into someone else's home with a weapon in your hand. It has been photographed and uploaded to the database." The housekeeping robot continued.

"..."

Realizing that the other party seemed to be playing a real game, Zhou Tianhao also took it seriously, and asked in a deep voice, "So, what are you going to want me to do?"

"Please go to the following 24-hour automatic pharmacy to buy glucose injections, as well as stents, needles and infusion tubes for intravenous drip." The housekeeping robot quickly issued instructions: "He may not be able to leave the game room for a long time, and his body needs it. Nutritional supplements."

"This is nonsense, how do you open the door of the game cabin?" Zhou Tianhao glanced at the robot.

In order to prevent the player from being "invaded" by other people when the player enters the virtual world, the security lock of the imaging game compartment in the brain is indestructible. When the game compartment is running, it is almost impossible to open it from the outside.

Zhou Tianhao remembers clearly that the last time the guy who turned into a lunatic after taking "psychedelics" was also trapped in the game cabin and couldn’t leave. In the end, the police used a thermal cutter to forcibly cut the shell of the game cabin. Guy rescued.

Even if you buy glucose yourself, it is impossible to infuse it through the hatch of the game compartment.

Just thinking of this, Zhou Tianhao heard the housekeeping robot answer his question:

"I will open the hatch, but I can't transfer his consciousness out." The robot said.

"Can you... open the hatch?" Zhou Tianhao pointed to the streamlined hatch of the game warehouse: "Are you kidding me? Don't think I don't have a housekeeping robot."

——As an industry insider, Zhou Tianhao knows very well that even the latest domestic robots cannot open the brain imaging game warehouse that is in operation.

However, the housekeeping robot in front of him is obviously not simple...

"Please wait a minute."

The housekeeping robot moved to the side of the game compartment and plugged the data cable under the body into the external data port under the game compartment. The indicator light of the game compartment suddenly turned red, and then... under Zhou Tianhao’s horrified gaze, the door slowed down. Slowly opened outwards.

--how can that be?

Zhou Tianhao's eyes widened in surprise, and he walked to the game cabin and looked inward, only to see that his old classmate was lying on the black recliner in the cabin with his eyes closed, and his complexion was sickly pale.

"This……"

If the skin tone is pale, it is enough. Many people who do not see the sun all year round will have similar symptoms. But the guy's mouth and nose are bleeding, which is a bit abnormal.

"Hey, it's serious now..." Zhou Tianhao stretched out his hand with furrowed brows, tested Lin Chi's sniff, and finally breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that the other party was still breathing.

"Are you sure you only need glucose to solve it? Or call a doctor." Zhou Tianhao said he was about to call, but was stopped by the housekeeping robot.

"No problem." The robot said earnestly with an electronic tone: "I believe him."

"This is no longer a question of believing or not believing, right?" Zhou Tianhao said angrily: "If this goes on, this kid might be going to die!"

"Please go buy medicine." The housekeeping robot urged: "I can't buy medicine in my identity."

——What the **** is this guy thinking?

Zhou Tianhao frowned slightly because of confusion.

Although the other party is using the housing of the housekeeping robot to talk to himself, it is actually possible that someone is behind it, but Zhou Tianhao feels strange:

What he is facing may not be a human being, but a real robot!

Whether it is spoken with a slightly written style, or logic that is not very similar to humans, it seems to indicate the fact that this domestic robot is not a human, but actually some kind of AI.

So, that kid Lin Chi...could it be that he hid an artificial intelligence in his home?

Zhou Tianhao looked at Lin Chi who was lying motionless in the warehouse, then took another look at the robot, and finally made a decision:

"Well, I'm going to buy medicine. But... when I come back, I need to know the ins and outs of all this."

"I will tell you, please go." The housekeeping robot raised its retractable metal arm and waved the manipulator to Zhou Tianhao.
