Get teased by AI in escape game [Unlimited]

Xu Chaomu stepped on the snow-covered steps, couldn't help stamping his feet, lowered his head and exhaled into the palm of his hand.

The warm breath instantly liquefied and froze, turning into a thin layer of white frost, which landed on his palm.

He was wearing a white turtleneck cashmere sweater and a thick down jacket.The down jacket is the uniform of the base. There is a heating system inside, which continuously sends out heat, but it still cannot withstand the severe cold outside.As long as he leaves the research base, within an hour, his whole body will be frozen into a popsicle.

Therefore, he can only stand here for a while before he has to go back.

"what happened to you?"

A deep and magnetic male voice sounded in his ear.

Xu Chaomu wore wireless earphones in his ears, and the sound came from there.

Hearing this familiar voice, he bent his lips, cleared his throat, and answered seriously:

"It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered that I, a long time ago, actually liked snow, and this kind of endless whiteness."

Xu Chaomu is a southerner, and he has never seen real snow in the first half of his life.When the heavy snow just comes, I always like to climb to the top of a high building after the snow, lean on the railing, overlook the white city covered by heavy snow, and look at the busy and busy neighborhoods on weekdays, becoming serene and quiet.

He used to love snow very much.

But now, white is everyone's nightmare.He is also included.

Because the snow falls endlessly, covering the sky and the earth bit by bit.The soil freezes, the running water freezes, and the roads condense.Countless people are frozen to death at home every day.People all over the world seem to degenerate into the ape-man millions of years ago overnight, and they have to migrate to the equatorial region together.

But in the end, even the equatorial region became an extremely cold place.

It's a white doom covered in snow.

"Isn't white good?" The male voice in the earphone asked curiously, his voice was charming and slightly hoarse.

It didn't really understand this, but it recognized the regret in the man's tone.

Xu Zhaomu smiled and explained: "It's not bad, it's just associated with the most terrible situation. When people see white, they will think of a series of bad things, such as hunger, such as death."

He paused, changed the subject, and mentioned as if chatting: "Your current voice and intonation are very well mastered, and your speech is smooth and natural. If you put it in a human city three years ago, it would definitely become a very charming city. The product will be loved by many people.”

"Thank you for your compliment." The male voice in the headset said happily, and responded to his compliment: "You are also a very charming gentleman, and you will definitely fall in love with me."

Be caught off guard.

Xu Chaomu coughed lightly: "This usage needs to be corrected. 'I' is a personal pronoun, and it cannot be described by 'many'." A slight smile appeared on his face.

——If it wasn't for "it", it would always make some strange little mistakes, Xu Chaomu almost thought that he was actually talking to humans.

The AI ​​assistant who is talking to him now was originally just a by-product of the large system "Homeland" he was in charge of, but it has repeatedly refreshed the standards of the Turing test, and was mistaken for a real human by the uninformed .If people were not facing the doomsday, they would definitely attach great importance to its existence, and it would not be an exaggeration to include it in the history books.

And now, they don't even bother to give it a name, just call it Z for now.

"...Okay." Z's voice sounded a little sullen.

Xu Chaomu smiled slightly, not caring about this episode.

He looked down the steps into the distance.

Uncommon continuous sunny days exposed a small half of the gray sky. His gaze fell deep into the endless snow field, and he saw a tinge of orange-red light in the sky there, dyeing the swirling clouds and pure snow field red.

The sun is about to set.

"So, what was it like here before the heavy snow fell?" A male voice in the headset asked after a moment of silence.

I will also take the initiative to find topics, and I am really getting smarter.

"Hmm..." Xu Zhaomu searched through the memories in his mind, looking for the right words: "This...is a tropical area. Before the heavy snow falls, there should be sunshine, coasts, beaches, coconut palm forests, and crabs, Fish, shrimp and seabirds, many tourists wearing swimsuits surfing and swimming, and sailing boats..."

"Coconut palm forest?" Z grabbed a word he hadn't heard before, "What is that?"

Xu Chaomu paused.

He is rarely asked similar questions by this AI.

Logically speaking, all the knowledge, images, models, and techniques in the world have already been stored in the storage area of ​​the large system. What Z knows surpasses everyone else, so it should be impossible to have such a definitional problem want to ask him.

However, soon, he remembered the answer.

A long time ago, when heavy snow stopped shortly beyond the Tropic of Cancer, human beings wishfully believed that the end was over, and various project funds were greatly cut, and many plans had to be cut in half.The large system "Homeland" that Xu Chaomu is in charge of is no exception.

In order to free up some storage space, Xu Chaomu decisively deleted the tropical geographic data that still existed at that time.Later, when the heavy snow approached again and the funds were restored, they reloaded some new data as if they were in an emergency situation.But the earlier data are irretrievably lost forever.

There might be other defects...but he couldn't recall them.

After all, those things don't matter.

The existence of a large system is not to preserve those common nouns or knowledge.

The warm orange light fell on Xu Chaomu's handsome and cold side face.

The expression on his face became somewhat blurred:

"If one day, the coconut palm forest can grow here again, I will take you to see it."

Z said: "I hope that day will come."

Xu Chaomu lowered his eyelashes, let out a breath of hot air, and said in a low voice:

"I hope so too."

But, will there be such a day?

Actually, he wasn't sure.

After all, in this era, those who are full of hope have already died of despair.

The remaining human beings do not believe in illusory hopes.

— but themselves.
