Be careful from the male insect [Interstellar]

"So," Ivan tried to squeeze into the swarm, "what's going on?"

He didn't have to do this at all, because as soon as he appeared, the research bugs that had gathered in a hurry scattered in all directions. The scene seemed to be that Aiwen was not Aiwen, but some potent insecticide.Ryan quickly pulled him out again, and the lab returned to normal, though generally quiet.

It was the morning of the day Ivan was about to leave Serbia Star.Ryan took him to the research room as promised, so that Ivan could see the progress of the mechanical heart.It was evident, however, that another unforeseen event had occurred.

"That's it." Milton stepped out and explained, "There is a problem with the key fit."

Ai Wen opened his eyes wide: "What's the problem?"

"All the data is normal, but once it is put into Alpha, it becomes unresponsive again." Milton said, "There must be something wrong, or something is missing somewhere."

Ryan's face immediately sank.

Alvin: "But..."

Then he was literally pulled away by Ryan.

The atmosphere of Serbia Star is very stagnant today.They used to have high hopes for the mechanical heart, but now such an accident suddenly happened, which made all their hearts very heavy.As outsiders, even Ivan can imagine their mental activities: What's going on, could it be that Holden lied to the worms?Is the mechanical heart just a decoration, useless?

If Mecha Alpha cannot be activated normally, what will happen to Serbia when the tide of alien beasts arrives?

Aiwen thought of all this, and thought of his confusing gender and childhood, and felt that the image of the female father Holden was also confusing.He finished his lunch alone, and finally made up his mind, put on the iron bucket winter clothes and ran out to find Ryan.

Ryan was in his office area these days, so easy to find.

Aiwen slipped and ran all the way, and within 5 minutes, he ran through the major general's office area that normal people would have to walk for half an hour to reach. When he knocked on the door, he couldn't even breathe well.Ryan waited very patiently for him to straighten his tongue and speak, only to hear Ivan say boldly:

"I want to participate in their final research on the mechanical mind."

This time Ivan was smart, he didn't break his breath, and when Ryan spoke, he used the second half of his breath to add in the loudest voice:

"I'll leave as soon as I'm done!"

He was out of breath, and after speaking this half sentence, he sat down and panted for a long time, during which time he drank the glass of water that Ryan poured him.

Alvin is quite self-aware.He knew very well that his request was very bold and unreasonable, so he also prepared a large draft.As he drank the water, he secretly wondered why Ryan was so patient this time, and didn't interrupt himself immediately, and didn't take advantage of the moment to make a long speech.When Ivan slowed down and was about to open his mouth, Ryan made an interrupt gesture.

"Why?" Ryan asked, with an unexpectedly gentle tone. "These research bugs are very experienced and professional. Even if you are not around, they must be able to do their work well."

Ryan's attitude is really strange.Alvin thought, as if he didn't want to stop me.

But he immediately replied loudly: "Because I know Holden very well."

Ai Wen explained: "I was taught by Holden. Although I don't understand the reaction of that...that angry monster, I am very familiar with his mechanical style and ideas. I think I can still help. "

Ryan: "But..."

Aiwen: "But! I know! If those bugs feel that my male status is in the way, I can minimize my visits to the scene. I mean, or I can not participate in their discussions at all. After they discuss, I listen to the recording, Then I will study it myself and record it... I will never add to the chaos..."

He spoke more and more eagerly, feeling more and more that he was incoherent, and naturally more and more desperate.When Aiwen finished speaking, he hugged the quilt and moistened his throat with a withered face, he had already started to simulate in his mind how Ryan would reject him.

But Ryan just tapped his knuckles on the table.

"Very well then," he said, "in that case, I'll arrange it for you."

Ryan's consent came too abnormally, so until Ivan staggered out again, he still felt that the world lacked basic authenticity.Why did Ryan suddenly become so talkative?Although he achieved his goal, Ivan was still full of doubts.He went out and saw two worms passing by from a distance, walking back from the barracks pier.

Aiwen skillfully kept a distance from them, watched them nod to himself, and caught a few words in their words when they passed by:

"Start... close..."

Alvin stopped.

If what he pieced together from the information he heard was correct, it was that before he came out of Ryan's room, Ryan had turned off the starship's preparations for activation.In other words, before I ran to find Ryan, the trip to leave Serbia Star today had been cancelled.

And even if he didn't ask, Ryan had already decided not to take him away before the end of the study.

Alvin had a bad premonition in his heart.Does the mechanical heart really have any fundamental flaws, and the possibility of repairing it is very slim?

Ryan even postponed his departure date for this!

But think about it, even in the past few days, Ryan's attitude was always a little dazed, as if there were things beyond Ivan's cognition that he had never imagined.

Ai Wen suddenly had a little doubt: Maybe things are not as simple as I imagined now

Doubts are doubts, Ivan still hasn't figured out why Ryan is distressed.But all in all, he did fulfill his promise and let Sauron contact the Mechanical Department, allowing Aiwen to participate in their research on the mechanical heart in another way.Ai Wen sat in the dormitory and watched the video, and found that even though he was not there, the worms in the research room still acted as if the upper-level leaders were there, and their movements were extremely delicate and a little trembling.

Evan sighed involuntarily.

After watching the video, he roughly understood the relevant situation, so he wandered to find Ryan.Ryan happened to be unable to leave, so he asked Sauron to lead Aiwen to the empty mech research room and make sure that no other bugs appeared around him.

Alvin closed the door by himself.

Before entering the real mecha research room, Aiwen first passed a small compartment, in which the mechanical heart was suspended in a small glass cover.After sharing his body with this thing for a period of time, Ivan had a particularly strange feeling when he saw it levitate away from himself and float somewhere else.

As if it is still a part of itself.

He stepped forward to observe it more closely.

Ryan gave him the key authority, so Ivan successfully opened the glass cover and put a hand in.Following his movements, the mechanical heart slowly opened the mechanical valve, revealing the small texture inside, which looked inexplicably familiar.

Where is it familiar?

Ai Wen raised his head and finally confirmed that the camera was off.

It's not that he's going to do something shady, but it's better not to let any video equipment catch his next move.After all, on Planet Serbia, the worms are very easily surprised by the existence of male worms.

Alvin unbuttoned his coat.

Then he took off the sweater.

Then he unbuttoned his jacket.

Ivan looked around, found a chair, dragged it over and placed it directly in front of the glass cover of the mechanical heart.He sat down on it, adjusted his posture, and then lifted the last layer of thin clothes.

In his abdomen, it should be the soft part of the insect body, but there is a symmetrical metal shell like the hard shell of a crustacean.

That is the entrance to the control program in Ivan's body.

Aiwen's body has undergone a semi-mechanical transformation, not only for the visible organs on the outside, but also for the internal parts of the body.Even with Spark technology, it is impossible to give life and touch to individual mechanical body parts out of thin air. Therefore, in addition to the external prosthetic limbs, Ivan also has a small central control program in his stomach.

This special device allows him to control his limbs, form consciousness, and when necessary, allow the entire body to self-destruct directly with super destructive power.

"Of course," Holden said, "I hope this never happens to you, so I don't recommend it unless it's absolutely necessary."

Alvin wrinkled his nose and shuddered.

He continued to explore the small opening.Next to the metal shell is a wound that has scabbed over.There were also some bandages twisted crookedly, a bit obstructing the line of sight, so Ivan untied them all and pushed them aside.

He touched the metal shell covering his abdomen again.

The edges of that piece of metal are very soft, and only a little bit in the center is hard, so it doesn't abrade the skin or cause pain in other parts due to daily activities.Ivan looked down at it, walked his fingers on it a few times seemingly casually, and pressed it again, and there was a beeping sound from inside.He waited another second, and the small hard block in the center was already translucent, and a device similar to a combination lock appeared.

Ai Wen never took the initiative to open it.Only Holden opened it once or twice to adjust his body coordination when he was very young, and he was required to memorize the process and password when opening this body.

Alvin enters the password.

This is when he is most aware of his cyborg body.

There were nine digits in the password. After he finished typing, he waited quietly for a while, and suddenly felt numb all over his stomach.He involuntarily let out an "uh", and when he lowered his head again, the metal plate had been opened, and a hole had been exposed in his abdomen.

...is quite scary at first glance.

But Aiwen still remembers the process behind unlocking the password lock very clearly.He thought for a moment, reached in, found a few internal buttons, and selected a few to press.There was another gurgling sound in my stomach, but nothing else this time.He smoothly felt something fall from between the tightly clenched mechanical teeth, fell into the palm of his right hand, and was taken out by Ivan.

It was a miniature mechanical heart.

The author has something to say: There are a lot of new little angels these days, thanks for the comments!

By the way, I asked Ai Wen what he meant, and he said that you are also very cute
