But this time, Committee Member Cai's ability to do things has exceeded my expectations. After just a day, I received a notification to negotiate with him, so I hope to be able to see the long-famous Miss Tomoko.

Miss Jiang was still late, so I could only say a few words to get through this awkward period. "Aha, Committee Member Cai, I wonder how you are doing this time? We are very sincere. "

"I think there's still hope. It's always good to have many friends in this world."

"Of course, of course, why should we meet in battle? "We will naturally …" I could not continue, for my eyes were drawn to the person in front of me.

Without even thinking, he knew that this was Moloch's movie company's number one card — — Miss Moro Tomoko.

She was only wearing a simple dress. Her skin was like the bright moon, her eyes were bright, and her face was rosy. What was even more eye-catching was that her figure had been "molded" to the point that it was too beautiful. I've read a few books on physiology and advanced chemistry before, and I think she must have been designed according to the ideal waist-to-hip ratio of a man's subconscious.

Her voice was also like a bell: "Hello, Committee Member Cai. Hello, Mr Latimer. " She held out her hand to me as if she were performing the basic ritual of a human meeting for the first time.

I wiped my hands automatically. I didn't want to stain her with something filthy. As soon as I touched her skin, I felt my whole body shake with electricity. Not because the machine was leaking electricity, of course, but because I felt that the skin I was touching was too delicate and the temperature was just right. As she leaned forward, I caught a whiff of her scent. It wasn't artificial perfume at all, but it had a touch of coolness and charm.

Yes, this was the smell of a woman.

Miss Jiang glared at me. "Mr Latimer, you can let go now, right?"

"Ah …" I just noticed that I was still holding Tomoko's jade hand. I let go at once, knowing full well that I could see the red mark on her wrist, and I was completely confused. Could it be that this person was not Bionic Human Tomoko, but was actually a real person? Otherwise, would this physiological detail be so perfect?

"It's okay. I think he's nervous." Miss Tomoko spoke up for me, "Committee Member Cai, can we start today's discussion?"

"Ah, of course, of course." Committee Member Cai seemed to be in a daze, after pausing for a while he said, "Everyone, please take a seat. The reason I asked everyone to spare no time today is still for the Eloi Film And Television Company s … "

I didn't pay any attention to what he was saying. I was just looking at the robot in front of me. She was listening intently to our conversation, her eyes keen, looking from me to her broker, the Miss Jiang.

"What a perfect imitation!" I couldn't help but exclaim in my heart, "I didn't expect Moloch's technology to be this advanced. It should be known that it's not difficult to create machines that surpass the human body, but to make a machine that is exactly the same as a human body … This is the most difficult thing to do. "

Not to mention that not only was there no difference physically, but his demeanor, language, and actions were all the same as those of a real person. If he hadn't told me that she was a Bionic Human, I probably wouldn't have known.

"Mr Latimer!" The Miss Jiang at the side still had a face full of anger. Compared to the Miss Tomoko, I really felt that she was a sight to be hated, "Mr Latimer! Are you here to negotiate or to see a beauty? "

"Ah, I was just observing. After all, I hope that Miss Moro Tomoko can supervise our work, so I want to have a better understanding of her. " I was pitifully lost in beauty, and to cover it up, I seemed capable of concocting any kind of lie.

"Miss Tomoko's heart should be as beautiful as her outer appearance!" I thought.

"Mr Latimer, please do not mind." Tomoko looked at me and said, I felt my heart beating faster, "Miss Jiang's pet dog QQ just passed away, so I can't help but feel a little unhappy, please …"

However, Miss Jiang, who was also a "woman", did not care about Tomoko's beauty. Don't you know that you can't casually expose the privacy of others in public?! "

"I …" Tomoko would blush like a human, "Sorry."

"Alright, alright, this is an unintentional act." I defended Tomoko.

"Heh heh, it was indeed unintentional." Jiang Xiaowei's tone was somewhat sarcastic, "Alright, now that we're here, it's time for the Miss Tomoko to arrive. Mr Latimer, what else do you have to say? You have to understand that our time is very precious. Miss Tomoko still has two programs to perform today. "

"Ah, the same thing we discussed that day. Our company is eager for the Miss Tomoko to participate in our program, as a host, we are also monitoring our program. "

"Very well, I know your little abacus. Perhaps, you would even say that you have to ask Tomoko out because she is the only one who has a Junior High level human emotions module? This is exactly what your program is like. "

"Looks like Miss Jiang has carefully considered our request."

"Not only have I thought about it, I've also carefully analyzed it. Miss Tomoko, since the crux of the problem involves you, you might as well state your views. " At this moment, I thought that maybe Jiang Xiaowei had already arranged for Tomoko to say something, and she definitely did not come in good faith, she just wanted Tomoko to dispel any thoughts of mine.

But Tomoko didn't say anything, she only seemed to be considering it for a while, which made me suspicious, because the robot's calculation speed is very fast, she shouldn't be lost in it's thoughts for too long.

"Miss Tomoko?" Committee Member Cai also asked, "What are your plans?"

Tomoko revealed a worried look and pouted: "Can you let me talk to Mr Latimer alone for a while?"

"Alone?" Miss Jiang seemed like she was about to jump.

"Ah, just for a moment. I have some key questions to ask him." Tomoko replied.

"I think that's pretty good too." "Miss Jiang, why don't you let them discuss about it in private? It seems like, at the end of the day, he also existed as a man, and then, it was just a national machine," the normally calm Committee Member Cai actually agreed to Tomoko's request.

"Fine, but only for a moment." Jiang Xiaowei stood up and left, and looking at her figure disappearing into the distance, I heaved a sigh of relief. The Committee Member Cai also walked away on his own accord, wishing me luck before he leaves.

After everyone had left — this meeting room was extremely secretive, and no one would disturb us — since I was in the same room with the Miss Tomoko, I couldn't help but think of things that I shouldn't have thought about …

She only smiled sweetly: "Mr Latimer, can you take me away?"

"Ah, leave?" I was in a bit of a daze. I subconsciously thought that this Bionic Human, this beauty that I had never seen before was asking me to take her away from Moloch, this evil company that oppressed her. And the most important thing was to leave with me.

She giggled at my embarrassment. "I mean, the atmosphere here is too serious. Can you take me for a walk?"

"But you heard what your agent said. We can only talk in private for a while."

"I didn't say how long it would take, did I?" Her eyes twinkled with innocence. "Let's go."

I didn't think about the consequences of my departure at all. I simply followed the emergency exit from the building. Of course we didn't meet the Miss Jiang or the Committee Member Cai, they were probably still waiting for us inside the building.

"Miss Tomoko?" I felt as if the air had become abnormally fresh. "Can we talk about the next step?"

"Actually, I'm not used to that name. I've been called Beta since the day I was born."

"So you prefer the name Beta?"

"I have no choice but to decide," she seemed to be a little sad. "Tomoko is more likeable."

"And the image of the Japanese geisha... I suppose your company has also considered the preferences of the audience? "

"Do you like the image of the Japanese geisha Moro?"

Of course, I like the Miss Tomoko herself … But I immediately dispelled this unrealistic absurdity: "I like it too, every man would like it."

"Even if you know that my image and personality are all shaped?"

"Haha, we humans are also created by genetic engineering. This is just a gift from the Innate Realm. For one person, the most important thing is their efforts in the future. "

"The hard work of the day after tomorrow?" She seemed to be asking the obvious.

"Of course!" But I don't think she understands the essential difference between innate and acquired. As a robot, isn't everything she does already set?

"Then do I have an effort the day after tomorrow?"

"Of course not." At this time, I suddenly wanted to learn the Committee Member Cai's method of deceiving others, because I did not want to say that a robot does not have the free will, but I also did not want to "hurt" the Miss Tomoko's heart — even though she did it unintentionally.

"Fine." There was a silence.

I didn't want to waste this rare opportunity, so I wanted to ask a few personal questions about her, but Tomoko took the initiative to ask: "Did I do wrong just now?"

"What did you do wrong?" I don't know what she meant.

"I just wanted to explain why she was so angry, but I didn't know it was a violation of her privacy."

"Oh, you're talking about your explanation of Miss Jiang's mentality just now?"

"Well, I didn't know that would make her even angrier."

"Then …" I feel that this is also a good topic, to be able to let me understand Tomoko even more, I want to prove to her how intelligent she actually is. "Can you understand how sad she is?"

"For what?"

"For a pet dog, what did you say its name was?"

"QQ."

"En, QQ, do you think QQ is cute?"

"Of course, very cute and obedient."

"So you have feelings for it, too?"

"I think so."

"Then are you sad?"

"It might not be as profound as the Miss Jiang."

"So …" It's still that question, what is it that makes her sad? "

"I guess it's because I can't see QQ anymore." She looked at me as if she wanted a positive answer.

"You're half right," I said, feeling that I was still a long way from truly understanding human nature. "The other half is: QQ will never come back to life. So not only can we not see QQ, QQ also can't see this beautiful world. "

"You mean, you can't just think from my point of view, but also from the other's?" I don't think she understands my point at all.

"It's not that she's sad that she can't see QQ, it's a feeling we can only call selfish. Do you understand the concept of life and death? "

"Life, death …" She was lost in thought, but immediately answered with a smile, "Of course I know, when an organism is alive, it breathes, beats, moves, and its brain nerves are constantly transmitting signals. But when he dies, his actions cease and his brain activity ceases to exist. "

"It's a medical definition of life and death," I said, with the pride of a teacher. "For human emotions... Why do people love a living thing and feel regret and sadness for a dead thing? "

"Yes, why? What is the difference between an active brain cell and an inactive brain cell? " She seemed to have fallen into a typical robotic state of mind.

"Then let me ask another question," I felt that this question was somewhat risky, "Does Miss Tomoko feel that she is alive?"

"Me?"

"Because you can't breathe, you have a heartbeat, and you don't have any nerves."

"These are organisms. I am not an organism. If I need to breathe and my heart and my brain, I think I can do it, too. "

"So!" I point out the point, "The definition of life and death does not lie in what breathing and heartbeat are, nor in the movement of brain cells, but in something higher. I think you are alive, but there must be a general rule that can be outlined. "

"What is it?"

"Life is a very difficult concept to define. You should know about animism, right?"

"Of course I know. It's an ancient philosophy." She pointed to her own chest. "Although this type of robot is forbidden to connect to the Internet, I also have large amounts of data stored locally that can be accessed at any time."

"Oh, oh …" I dare not look at her enchanting breasts. "Even the living cannot say what life is."

"And what is death?"

"Death …" The first thing that came to my mind was of course the recently deceased Ms Mistie. "Can we really leave for a while?"

"That's no problem. The Miss Jiang was lying to you all just now, I'm completely free today. I don't have two programs waiting for me to perform." She blinked. I think there's something wrong with her statement — she revealed the company's secret for an outsider she just met.
