Chapter 118 - 118 Little 7’s Mother
After sending Meng Zhu off, Yuan Xiao lay on the bed and called out the system.
[Host, Little 7 has detected that your mood is a little complicated. Do you need to play a soothing song to relax?]
“No, thank you, Little 7.”
[You’re too kind, Host. It’s the system’s greatest honor to be able to provide you with high-quality service.]
When Yuan Xiao heard the system’s cold but cute electronic voice, she could not help but ask, “Little 7, who exactly set you up?”
[Host, do you want to know more about Little 7’s mother?]
Yuan Xiao was surprised that Little 7 would say that. She never expected that an electronic system similar to a robot would have a mother.
“Who’s your mother?”
[Little 7’s mother is a very smart person. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have designed a powerful Academic Genius System like mine!]
Listening to the electronic voice’s description, Yuan Xiao seemed to feel Little 7’s emotions for the first time.
“Your mother is indeed very smart and great. She must have contributed a lot to designing such a program.” Yuan Xiao was not stingy with her praise for the designer. She really felt that the designer of the Academic Genius System was very outstanding.
[Little 7 thinks so too. However, after our system was completely activated by the host, Little 7’s memories of his mother were temporarily sealed.]
“Sealed?” Yuan Xiao was a little surprised. She asked Little Seven in her mind, “Did you forget your mother because of me?”
[Little 7 can’t blame the host. This is Little 7’s mother’s own setting. She must have a reason for this design. Little 7 is very happy to be able to accompany the host on a journey!]
“Little 7, will our bond be broken one day?” Yuan Xiao felt empty at the thought that Little 7 might suddenly disappear one day.
[Normally not, unless…]
Sensing the system’s hesitation, Yuan Xiao asked, “Unless what? Is it after I die?”
[More or less. The host’s death or death of your brain or accidents like brain damage will affect the system to a certain extent.]
“Then I’ll protect my brain well in the future. Just live in my head in peace.” Yuan Xiao’s tone was light. She seemed to be comforting Little 7, but she had forgotten that the system could detect her true emotions.
[Host, you’re still not very happy. However, I don’t know if Little 7’s system is not advanced enough, but I can’t find the reason why you’re unhappy.]
“Actually, I’m not unhappy, I’m just a little confused.” Yuan Xiao remembered what he wanted to ask the system before and said, “Last time when I was on the roller coaster with Fang Yao in the amusement park, I exchanged the ability to prevent dizziness with you, but before the ability was activated, there seemed to be an additional memory in my mind.”
When Yuan Xiao recalled the memories from before, she actually felt that they were still very clear.
“When I was semi-conscious, I seemed to see a middle-aged man in a black suit in front of me. That person looked a little similar to Fang Yao. He was sitting by my bed and seemed to be crying very sadly. I wanted to reach out and wipe his tears, but I didn’t have the strength at all. After I woke up, everything returned to normal. This memory was like a dream of mine, but the dream was too real, as if it had really happened to me.”
After Yuan Xiao finished speaking, the system actually fell silent for a period of time. It was unknown if it was searching for the reason, but just as Yuan Xiao was about to ask again, Little 7’s electronic voice slowly sounded.
[I’m sorry, Host. When you’re close to being unconscious or semi-conscious, the system is also in a dormant state. It can’t monitor the information in your mind.]
“Then, on the plane today, I also had a very strange dream.” Yuan Xiao did not know if the system would also be in a dormant state when she was in deep sleep. “In the dream, Fang Yao had grown up, but his eyes were still sad. I was even stranger. It was as if I was about to die. Looking at the crying crowd around me, I did not have the strength to struggle at all.”
Yuan Xiao hated this feeling of helplessness. She liked to have control over things and did not like accidents and surprises.
[I’m sorry, Host. Little 7 still didn’t detect it…]
Sensing Little 7’s disappointment, Yuan Xiao smiled and comforted it. “It’s alright. I was just asking. I just wanted to know if these things had happened or would happen in the future. Otherwise, I’m just thinking too much. Everything is just a random emotion in my mind.”
