"Welcome to use Zhiyang brand humanoid robot."

Qiao Yichen couldn't help shouting excitedly, it has spoken!

"my name is--"

The sound is pretty good.

"..."

"..."

?

"my name is--"

The robot said it again.

The boss elbowed himself on the side.

"what is it call?"

"What is it called?"

"What's this guy's name? It's up to you. It can recognize your unique voice identifier, and it won't be used even if someone else steals it."

So advanced, and there is an anti-theft function?

What's the name... what's the best name?

This scene had such a sense of urgency that Qiao Yichen's mind went blank when he was anxious.

After a while, the robot finally had a new name: Georgia.This is also the name of the Chihuahua raised in my hometown.She got lost two years ago, and Mother Qiao cried a lot at that time.

Then he reported his name to the robot, and was stared at by it for a long time.The boss said that it is reserved for video archives.Finally, a toneless voice sounded.

"Have fun with it."

"Is it alright?" Tilting his head, he asked the boss.

"You simply ask him to do a few actions to inspect the goods."

Qiao Yichen did so, and the robot Georgia got off the console and stood up.The cloth that had just covered it fell to the ground.Only then did I realize that this guy was naked and had nothing on.Quickly took out the clothes the boss had prepared in advance and put them on him.Well, let alone, except for the dull expression on his face, he is a living person at all.

After moving the limbs, there is no problem, and I can understand the speech.I didn't expect this guy to be half a head taller than himself after connecting his legs.The boss asked if there were any other questions, and Qiao Yichen asked angrily, "Why is it so tall?"

"You didn't stipulate how long the legs should be connected?"

That's pretty neat.

"Okay, the goods are all right." The boss rummaged in the corner drawer for a long time, picked out a white notebook from a pile of waste paper, and handed it to himself.A line of handwritten words on the cover of the book: User Manual.

Just about to open it, the boss stuffed a few more pieces of paper and cards over.

"Certificate of possession, approval form, NHRA registration number, proof of purchase. □□I'll call you later when all the money is paid."

All this made Qiao Yichen flustered.Seeing his unreliable virtue, the boss said: "Fortunately, this is a legitimate place, you are in a hurry to pay without understanding this? Changing to another place will have cheated you."

I said in my heart that you are so tattered and tattered, but there is nothing to refute.After putting away these so-called important documents, Qiao Yichen asked, "What is NHRA?"

"The national department in charge of robots. Every time you sell a robot, you need to apply for a registration number. Over the past few years, it has become more and more strict. In a few days, second-hand sales may not be allowed. You can do it yourself."

Is it so troublesome to buy a robot?Is there a special regulatory department?This is really no experience.

"As for that guy..." The boss pointed to Georgia who stood silently by the side.

"You should be practical. Although it is second-hand, you will never be lazy in your work. It will charge itself at night, and you can repair minor faults by yourself. If it doesn't work, just take it. As long as it is not chopped into pieces, I can basically put it back. "

Qiao Yichen couldn't help laughing at how this guy would turn into a mess if he stayed at home sweeping the floor and frying vegetables.

"Is this your lifetime warranty?"

"Repair and replace casually for non-artificial reasons, and make up for improper use of materials."

Such a kind after-sales service?It's a mystery that this didn't go bankrupt.

"Generally, it can't be broken. If there is no accident, it will not be a problem to use it for decades."

Decades?

"Then when was it built?"

"Not long ago, only eight years. I installed the latest version of the housekeeping system on it, but this model cannot be connected to the Internet, so it cannot be updated automatically. You can bring it here and I will update it manually. Or just tell it what to do , what ordinary people can learn, it can also learn.”

I only know that the sloppy man with a beard and staring eyes and smelling of alcohol introduced his own products with unambiguous eloquence.

"Are there any questions?" The boss seemed to understand his subtle expression, and said impatiently: "If you have any questions, you can ask it. It will know what it will be better than me. If you have any questions, please read the manual."

Lele, who was standing on the side, yawned big.The boss slapped his son's butt with his hand and howled, "You brat, go to sleep!"

Lele ran out quickly.

Seeing that it was getting late, Qiao Yichen was also preparing to retreat.Look at Georgia, which also looks at itself blankly.At this time, the boss suddenly straightened his tone in a rare way, and said, "By the way, there is one more thing I need to tell you first."

What a serious topic.

"Don't treat it like a human being."

?

Qiao Yichen thought he had heard wrong.

How can a seller tell a buyer, don't feel bad if my goods are ruined casually?Is this an attempt to quickly use up the first one and buy a second one?

"It's not a human being, and it can't be human. I'm just saying it for your own good, don't treat it as a human being."

Still didn't understand what he meant.

Seeing that he was still in a daze, the boss clicked his tongue, turned around and walked out.

Then it occurred to me that Georgia was still standing on the sidelines.Is it okay to say this in front of a robot?It won't go on strike in a fit of anger.Qiao Yichen tilted his head to look at it, the guy's expression was still wooden.Nothing happened.

"follow me."

The new owner gave the first order.

The robot obediently opened its long legs.

***

In the darkness, someone whispered something.

"It's all old men, it should be...it doesn't matter..."

***

The full amount was paid at the front desk.The boss typed it up and took it to himself.As soon as the front foot stepped out of the store door, the rolling shutter door behind was pulled down.

Hey, this business is done...

But thinking about the little money I spent, it seems that I have no position to ask others to give me a good face.

Qiao Yichen laughed at himself, and walked home in the dark night.

Georgia silently followed behind her.Qiao Yichen always felt uneasy when he couldn't see anyone. What if the more than 1 yuan got lost?So, he turned to it and said, "Will you walk by my side?"

The robot immediately picked up its pace.

It feels good.

Cicadas in the grass by the side of the road were yelling.The summer evening wind blows people's heart and soul.Qiao Yichen stretched his waist, seeing that the guy beside him was still walking forward without even looking around.

"Hey, let me ask you." Qiao Yichen also joked, just like someone who was keen on molesting the phone's voice a few years ago, "Why don't you like to talk?"

"Because some consumers are afraid of noise, so the initial setting is like this." It is still a light, toneless answer.

"I'm not afraid of making noise." Qiao Yichen felt that he must be acting rambunctious now.

"..."

I don't know if the robot didn't figure out how to answer or didn't want to talk to me, but Qiao Yichen was ignored like that.

"Hey!"

He frowned and stared at it disapprovingly.It also looked directly at itself.Looking at it, for the first time, an indescribable subtle expression appeared on that artificial face.It looked like hesitating and distressed.After thinking about it for a long time, Qiao Yichen finally understood that it was in trouble.

It's really a sense of accomplishment to tease this guy.Qiao Yichen put on a serious face and said, "I think it's too boring for you not to talk, very boring. Shouldn't you adjust the service method according to the different needs of consumers?"

"...I don't know what to say." After a long silence, the robot finally spoke.

"Hey, just chatting nonsense. Say what you think of."

"I can't figure it out."

"Well—for example, what kind of food do you know?"

The robot began to report the name of the dish with a serious face.

"Stop, stop, stop!" I told you to say it, and you really said it.

Qiao Yichen gave it a disgusted look.Who would have thought that the wooden guy who couldn't even make an expression well just now—oh no, the iron-headed guy frowned.

"Obviously what you want to ask..."

For a while, I didn't understand what it meant.When he finally came to his senses, Qiao Yichen burst out laughing regardless of the expression of suspected protest in front of him.

"I said, do you still have a temper?"

"I have no temper."

He said without temper, but the crease between his eyebrows became more and more crowded.Qiao Yichen pulled it and joked all the way.Seeing the door of the house, the robot is still trying to say slowly in that anxious tone:

"I really have no temper."

Qiao Yichen laughed so hard that he almost dropped the key on the ground.

***

Qiao Yichen could finally feel the refreshed feeling of Lao Yang.For three days in a row, he didn't get out of this blissful mood.When I get home from get off work and open the door, the smell of food will enter my nose.The floor was clean enough to lick and the sheets were rolled like a rolling pin.The washed clothes are folded and placed in the closet, just like the shelves of a clothing store.

"Welcome back, Master."

Georgia in her apron came forward.

This, this, this... Isn't this the perfect scene that every man dreams of?

Fortunately, I didn't buy a female robot that day, otherwise it would be too easy to fall.It's a good thing this guy is made of iron, it's a good thing, it's a good thing.

"What are we eating today?"

Qiao Yichen loosened his tie.

The robot doesn't need to eat, so it just sits and watches as it eats.However, according to it, it simulates the human digestive system and can eat, drink and excrete.But the power of the robot comes from the internal battery, so it will not starve to death without eating.I really don't know what those scientists with cramped brains designed such a tasteless function for.

"You don't want to take a bite?"

Qiao Yichen's mouth was full of braised pork, and he pointed to the plate vaguely.

The robot had a helpless expression, but now it almost rolled its eyes.Not to mention, if Qiao Yichen hadn't begged Bai Laifei to let him sit by the side to eat with him a few days ago, that guy would have stood by the wall to keep himself empty.Seeing it standing there as if in a daze, Qiao Yichen told it that standing is so tiring, come and sit down.

"I'm not human, I won't get tired standing up."

It also knows that it is not human.

"Standing is better than sitting. I feel sorry for the electricity bill." Actually, this sentence is nonsense, but unexpectedly the robot stopped talking, and walked over to sit down with a look of reluctance.Qiao Yichen asked if it could eat, and it said it didn't want to waste food.

"Don't you want to save money to buy a car? Instead of spending your meal money on such meaningless things..."

"How can this be meaningless, can't you taste it?"

"That's to ensure the quality of cooking skills, not for eating."

"Oh, what's the difference. It's a pleasure to eat something delicious. It's not a loss if you eat an extra bite."

"I'm not human, it doesn't matter if I'm unhappy."

Here we go again, Dr. Georgia's "Inhumanity".

Picking up a piece of meat and stuffing it directly into its mouth, Qiao Yichen said with a playful smile, "It's delicious. Your skills are really good."

The robot frowned and chewed, took a few sips of water to swallow it, and then sighed heavily.

"What a wayward master. I'm going to go to the toilet again for this later."

Ha, so it was because of this reason?

Whenever I discover something new about Georgia, I feel as excited as discovering a new continent.Qiao Yichen simply got up and put a bowl full of rice in front of it.

"Anyway, I have to go to the toilet in a while, so I will be full."

"I'm not human, so..."

"Stop! Open your mouth."

The robot opened its mouth in resignation.

***

The two settled down for dinner together.After it finished washing the dishes, Qiao Yichen dragged it to watch TV with him.After taking it home for a few days, it obviously talked a lot more than when it first came.His expression wasn't so stiff anymore.It's just that his temper has become a little weird, his brows are furrowed all day long, and his face is full of bitterness and hatred.I remember that the owner of the second-hand store said that it has the ability to learn, so maybe I winked at it all day long, played tricks on it all the time, and forcibly taught a robot with an empty head to look like this.

Alas, if you want to teach your son in the future, you can no longer rely on your feelings like this.

Bickering is bickering, but Georgia has never refused any of her requests.Just kidding, as long as he opens his mouth for serious things, it will be executed [-]%.Don't talk about cooking and sweeping the floor, even if it is murder and arson, maybe it will do it.This should be programmed.But this way, it's more fun to play tricks on it.No matter how unwilling it is, and how powerful its reasons are, in the end it still has to do what it says...

The guy next to him yawned.

Yes, the robot will yawn too, which means it's time to recharge.Qiao Yichen turned off the TV and got up to wash up.

When it came out of the toilet, it had connected the power cord by itself, sat on the chair against the wall and closed its eyes.

In fact, Qiao Yichen originally wanted to get a bed for it.As a result, it said that it was originally charging while standing, but it was not easy to charge when lying down.Finally, he thought of a compromise, that is, he found such a chair with cushions for him to sit on.The height of the wiring board is just right.

As soon as I plunged into the clean and refreshing bed, the tiredness of the day suddenly hit me.Qiao Yichen adjusted the position of the pillow, and then said in a daze, "Good night, Georgia."

"Good night, master."
