Unexpectedly, Yan Huirou fell silent at this.
“Go out?” She frowned. “Not right now.”
“Why?”
Jiang Xidai was not aware of it herself. In this area, her disruptive behavior could be tolerated. After all, her understanding of this world was, on the whole, a bit one-sided.
She was a “test subject” of a research project, a bold attempt by present-day humans to see if life from an alternate world could survive in this world.
The plants and animals brought back before had all died, but Jiang Xidai was surprisingly stable.
Her existence was unprecedented.
She had broken a common understanding. The first to succeed was a more complex humanoid life form, not a single-celled organism, a plant, or an ancient animal… The breakthrough of technology was always a bit counterintuitive. Just like when ancient AI first appeared a long time ago, no one had expected it to first enter the low-end market of the entertainment industry. Everyone had thought it would first liberate those tedious and boring physical activities, and then solve logical problems. But none of that happened.
Just from Jiang Xidai alone, how many core journal topics could be dug up?
The researchers’ attitude toward her was almost to worship her. That was a walking paper and a professional title! So even if Jiang Xidai had tormented everyone to a pulp, not a single person had backed down. They were still seriously ordering a chef robot for her.
But what about after she went out?
A dangerous little white mouse had escaped from the lab, and it had a single-unit combat power that exceeded human imagination. What kind of social panic would this cause?
This would definitely alarm the higher-ups.
The research center would probably have to bear a very serious responsibility. By then, before their colleagues’ papers were even published, many would have to go to jail together.
Yan Huirou, having died once, was not really worried about bearing the legal risks.
She was still worried about Jiang Xidai.
If it really wasn’t allowed, and the test subject had to be destroyed after leaving the lab, if they used advanced weapons to punish her, it wouldn’t be as simple as dodging a few bullets and subduing a few disobedient and violent security robots.
Yan Huirou was very self-aware. She had no ability to protect Jiang Xidai.
“Legally, you don’t have human rights yet,” Yan Huirou told her very seriously. “At least for now.”
“You mean, this Seat is not human?” Jiang Xidai said with surprise. “Are this group of people blind?”
At this moment, she was combing her hair with a phone, looking at herself. Although it sounded a bit strange, Jiang Xidai was indeed fond of using the front-facing camera of Yan Huirou’s phone. Now, she didn’t even like it when she was given a mirror.
After all, in the beauty camera, switching effects could generate some interesting patterns on her forehead.
This made the process of grooming not so boring.
Jiang Xidai pulled Yan Huirou over, their faces affectionately pressed together. She held the phone horizontally and took a selfie with a click.
Then she pointed at the photo and said, “You tell me. My eyebrows are eyebrows and my eyes are eyes. How am I not human?”
Yan Huirou pondered for a moment. “Mmm… let me make a strange analogy. For example, in fox-ghost stories, a fox spirit always turns into a beautiful woman, perhaps more captivating than anyone in the world, and very likable. But this doesn’t mean it’s the same as a human. After being discovered, it won’t be recognized by human society. What it will face is still the fear of unfamiliar things.”
Jiang Xidai frowned lightly. “You mean a demon? That kind of beast completely dominated by desire, just wearing a layer of human skin.”
Can this be compared to the noble master of the Shasheng Sect? She turned her head. “Yan Yan, you’re actually lumping me in with that dirty thing…”
“No…” Yan Huirou pressed a finger to her nose. “I mean, it will cause chaos outside.”
But Jiang Xidai’s experience was extremely rich—especially with a full experience of causing chaos.
She never stopped going down the mountain for a stroll because of others’ fear. She never deliberately concealed her clothes or weapons, and she never explained anything.
If someone called her a “demoness” to her face, she would just confirm the crime of a demoness.
Since she was already the leader of the demonic path, what did she need a good reputation for? It was better to be happy.
“Everyone is like that, I’m used to it,” Jiang Xidai leaned close to Yan Huirou and said in her ear. “Why should I care about those people? There are thousands of people in this world. If I have to consider their feelings one by one, can I still live my life?”
Yan Huirou smiled and shook her head. “And my legs aren’t better yet.”
She stretched out her slender calf. The recent walking had increased the muscle there a little. Yan Huirou could stand for a short time, but it was clear that she still had to rely on a wheelchair to live.
The various caregiver AI in the research center were very convenient, and it was completely incomparable to recuperating at home.
Unless Yan Huirou wanted to live a life of being rinsed a few times a day by the thoughtful Sect Master.
“After you’re better…”
“After I’m better, I’m afraid I’ll have to stay here for a long time.”
Yan Huirou sighed. “At that time, to fulfill a wish of my own, I did a lot of… rather crazy things, you know. I also implicated my colleague and brought some trouble to the research center.”
“So?”
“So I can’t leave,” Yan Huirou said. “After I recover, my work unit will hold me accountable. Besides the self-critique, I don’t know how much compensation and medical expenses I will have to face…”
As Yan Huirou said this, she sighed again.
Will I be able to pay off my debts and close my eyes in peace in this life?
If Jiang Xidai could be lucky enough to get an ID card in the future, and the federation recognized her legality, then she would naturally have to be responsible for her own actions.
The various large equipment and… twenty-five security robots that Jiang Xidai had smashed in the research center, this was a very terrifying number.
Yan Huirou had never thought of making her work to pay off the debt. For one, she had suffered a lot from it. For another, these two words were naturally not very compatible with Jiang Xidai.
So she subconsciously took on Jiang Xidai’s debt.
With this calculation, it really made her a little desperate.
The salary at the research center was indeed very high, so high that she could pay off her sister’s surgery fees in a few years.
But it couldn’t make her a rich person… the kind who could casually smash expensive machines worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions.
Thinking of money, Yan Huirou began to get a headache. What if she was fired from her unit? Where would she get so much money?
“Pay money?”
Jiang Xidai flicked her hair and leaned back lazily against the head of the bed. “There’s a good way, but I feel like you won’t like it.”
“What?” Yan Huirou was a little hopeful about this. After all, no one liked to pay off debts. She didn’t have any likes or dislikes.
The woman reached out and made a gesture of slitting her throat at Yan Huirou’s neck. “Make the creditor clean.”
Yan Huirou: “…”
No, she really didn’t like this.
“I don’t want to start with the death penalty.”
Sect Master Jiang’s logic was always impeccable. She chuckled lightly, her hand raised, and poked Yan Huirou’s chin, making a gesture. “How could that be? If someone were to use torture on you, this Seat wouldn’t sit by and do nothing. I’d just make them clean.”
Following this logic, the entire world would probably have to be “cleaned” once.
Yan Huirou thought with a bitter smile. But, in the previous world, Jiang Xidai seemed to have indeed done this—killing gods and buddhas who stood in her way. She was too lazy to think too much, and she would chop down all her enemies.
“Do you really want to go out that much?” Yan Huirou asked. “Before, at the Shasheng Sect, I didn’t see Jiao Jiao move much…”
“Being too lazy to go out and not being able to go out,” Jiang Xidai said, “there is a difference.”
“What’s the difference?” Yan Huirou raised an eyebrow. “Staying at home and staying in a bureau.”
“It’s freedom.”
Jiang Xidai was very serious.
Because of Jiang Xidai’s words, after the research project came to an end, while her superior, Old He, was back from a meeting, Yan Huirou submitted a lot of information to the research center.
Among them were behavioral records such as the test subject’s physical and mental health, and various others.
The old lady pushed up her glasses and read all the experimental data and research results about Jiang Xidai. She asked, “So you want to take her to live outside?”
“Mmm… I don’t have to go, but she has to be able to,” Yan Huirou also felt that she had troubled the elder before her with many things and was very embarrassed. “Yes, as a stable life form, with the same intelligence and emotions as a human, she should also have human rights.”
“Yan Huirou, don’t rush to talk about her,” Ms. He sighed. “The major loophole you created in your work, using loopholes to do things outside the rules, has the center not held you accountable yet?”
“Anytime,” Yan Huirou lowered her head. “Compensation… I will follow the contract…”
“Including the medical expenses after your suicide, you can’t pay it back. Very few people can afford this amount.” Ms. He’s tone was very plain and sharp, but this was also the truth.
“…”
Yan Huirou: “I… but my debt has nothing to do with Jiang Xidai. As a test subject, she doesn’t owe anything to this world. So I still want to ask you to think of a way to give her an identity…”
“The higher-ups already know. They think the value is great. Now they’re divided into two factions, conservative and radical. The debate in the meeting was very fierce. I went to the meeting this time because of this.”
“The conservative faction believes that this is an unethical experiment and will affect the stability of society. It should be stopped in time, and the test subject should be humanely destroyed.”
“What about the other side?” Yan Huirou’s heart skipped a beat.
“They all like her very much,” Ms. He smiled. “The people on that side believe that this is the direction of perfect human evolution. Stronger strength, healthier organs, more uniform body shape… someone passionately said that we are the defective products of natural selection, long and ugly but barely able to run code. Every hundred years, we become like a machine that has run out of oil and is scrapped. If we don’t work hard to find a way out, we will never be able to overcome the weakness of the flesh and the hidden dangers of disease.”
“These words are a bit extreme and have caused a lot of discussion. The voices of opposition and support have grown louder, and it’s hard to say what the final decision will be.”
Ms. He said warmly, “For a small research institution like ours, we can only wait for the higher-ups to make a decision. Yan Huirou, I’ve already submitted your proposal. There’s no result for now.”
