Daydream Theatre - C43

Miss Jiang looked dignified and calm, she had already sent Committee Member Cai to the side, she said she had the right to speak to me alone. This is exactly what I was hoping for, for us, in front of Balance Bureau, we can only say these kind of words.

“Hehe, where were you when something happened between our company?” Jiang Xiaowei glared at him, “Now, when the time comes for us to sit down and negotiate, you actually appeared? What is your goal?”

“Of course there’s no purpose …” Our Balance Bureau will take into account the opinions of both of you, and then, we will lead you to sign the most reasonable treaty. ”

“In the end, are you going to let the two super companies restrict each other so that you can survive in the cracks? I would like to talk to Mr Latimer alone for a while. Jiang Xiaowei’s words had obviously hit the nail on the head. Committee Member Cai’s face revealed awkwardness as she obediently retreated to the side.

Looking at Tomoko again, I was no longer that breathtaking to me. Of course, this was not because I had gotten tired of her outer appearance, but because of the additional respect I had for her as a living person. As long as it was a man (and perhaps some women), who wouldn’t want to take a few more glances at a beautiful woman? But when I saw Tomoko still thinking about her manager at the most dangerous moment, a trace of guilt suddenly rose in my heart. I felt guilty that I had always treated her as a mere tool and plaything, like the people who frequented Tomoko’s space.

“Miss Jiang, Miss Tomoko, why have you come to talk to me this time?”

“It’s something that will make you ecstatic,” Jiang Xiaowei said as she patted Tomoko’s shoulder. “After considering the pros and cons, Moloch agreed to let Tomoko join your program, and just like you said, she will become a host!”

I exclaimed in my heart. I had thought that Moloch would hate us to the bones! Although Tomoko did not get headshot, if Eloi was able to borrow the Time Capsule earlier, there would not be any big crises afterwards.

What consideration did Moloch have to agree to my suggestion?

“Of course, Tomoko’s rent is very expensive,” Jiang Xiaowei laughed, “It’s an astronomical figure, I wonder if a small program like yours can afford it.”

“Of course we very much welcome Miss Tomoko to join us! As for the loan fee, I think I’ll have to ask the director and producer for their thoughts. If there’s any change, I’ll contact them again. ”

Broker Jiang seemed satisfied, “I have already sent the specific contract to the mailbox of ‘Daydream Theater’. Please make the decision now. After all, there are a lot of programs with high level Access Rate that are looking forward to cooperating with Tomoko! ”

Of course, after going through that crisis, Tomoko’s popularity had not decreased, rather, it had increased. Especially her last words to the manager, which became the focus of every major media report. Even though a small portion of the people were worried that it meant that the Bionic Human had feelings, a large majority of them were moved, thinking that it proved that people did not just waste their love and emotions on Tomoko, Tomoko would also give her gratitude and rewards to all of her fans.

“I think there’s a big problem, of course we would ask for Mr Eloi’s opinion. “However …” I looked at Tomoko, who has not spoken a word until now. After the crisis of her life, even though she was silent, I still felt that she was full of life, unlike a machine, “But Miss Tomoko, do you also wish to join our program?”

I hope that there isn’t any conspiracy involved here, because in my opinion, Moloch doesn’t need to send a Tomoko over here for no reason at all, in order to greatly raise her Eloi.

“Actually,” Tomoko’s tone was amiable, “I was the one who strongly requested to do so. Big Sister Xiaowei also did her best to dispel public criticism, helping me to gain this opportunity.”

“You asked for it?”

“Yes, I find I have a lot to learn.”

“What are you going to learn?”

“Human’s way of thinking.”

“Do you want to learn from my program?”

“Yes, the human mind cannot be extracted from the data. “Similarly, I can’t learn it from the ‘Robot Theater’.”

“You’re right!” I nodded proudly. “The Robot Theater is too unreal, too deliberate. It was set up to satisfy the human race’s inferior nature.”

“But your program is different.”

“Oh?” However, it was clear that there were many man-made factors behind the incident at the Dreamy Cloud Martial School. After all, all of them would use any means possible for the sake of the Access Rate. Only with Access Rate as a safeguard could the program be funded.

“I’ve always wondered. Why was the quality of a program determined by the quality of the Access Rate, and why would a program with a high level of Access Rate earn a lot of money? It seems that the most important people to this world are the Access Rate. ” Tomoko revealed a puzzled expression.

I don’t understand either, but I’ve always been in this business, so I haven’t really thought about it or investigated it. “You’re right, a show with lots of people might not be good. It just proves that most people are interested in it.”

“So, I won’t choose a program based solely on Access Rate s. In my opinion, although the dream theater’s Access Rate is not high, but this program… This is really interesting! ”

I didn’t know what a robot would know about being “interesting.”

“Hehe, it is already unusual for people to be willing to sacrifice their time.”

“Furthermore, I know that your program is lacking a high level Bionic Human.”

“What do you mean?”

Jiang Xiaowei took the lead and said: “Because Miss Tomoko has three treasures.”

“Oh? I’ve never seen that before. ”

“Her joining can make up for three flaws of your program.” She mysteriously smiled and said, “As we all know, robots age much slower than humans. Therefore, if Tomoko becomes the host, no matter how fast the participants asked for the Time Capsule to be activated, Tomoko would be able to broadcast it live. ”

“Haha, this first treasure has really caught my attention!” “There’s an unwritten rule in the theater: you can’t let the speed of the Time Field move too fast, because… “If I go in, won’t I lose my life?”

“Thus, Tomoko’s participation can allow the speed of the Time Field’s movement to be infinitely fast. “How many interesting stories can you unearth like this?”

“That’s great! Then what’s the second treasure? ”

“Tomoko has an extremely fast calculation speed, and is good at self-learning. She can lighten the pressure on your later clips — which, of course, are done at the same time because of the live broadcast. Tomoko could analyze which scenes could increase the interest of the Access Rate using her big data. That is, the scenes that the audience was interested in were edited out at the same time as the live broadcast. This can greatly reduce the pressure on your staff. Of course, Tomoko’s eyes have the same function as your sunglasses, if they are slightly modified. ”

“I think my colleagues will like that too. I’m worried that she will be able to understand the situation and improve her Access Rate.”

“This can only be achieved through a large amount of studying. Tomoko is already analyzing all the programs released by our two companies, in an attempt to extract some rules from them. Of course, if Tomoko is not wrong, there is still the Mr Latimer. ”

“Even so, if the speed of the Time Field is too fast, I think I should obediently stay outside.”

“Yes, only Tomoko who has the instruction module, speed of calculation, and intelligence judge can perform the live broadcast inside the high speed Time Field!” The words of Mr. Jiang’s agent convinced me.

“And the third?” I’m very curious because these two magic treasures are already powerful enough.

“This third item …” Tomoko, why don’t you demonstrate it? ”

Tomoko stood up; she still had curves in the right places. Jiang Xiaowei took out a small ball from her pocket and said, “For example, if this is the Time Capsule. We watched the Ms Mistie’s live broadcast, and the reason why we participated in it was because your safety measures were too weak! ”

“This …” Actually, it was just an accident, “Then Miss Tomoko …”

Then I was dumbfounded — no, I was staring.

Tomoko unabashedly took off her shirt, revealing her smooth, white and elastic upper body.

“Wisdom …” I turned away, and although it was an artificial body, it still radiated an endless charm.

“Mr Latimer!” What shocked me was that Jiang Xiaowei actually walked over and turned my face over, “I’m not asking you to look … “I mean…”

She pointed at the small ball, “If this is a Time Capsule, then you don’t have to carry that heavy black box all day.”

She touched Tomoko’s chest — I thought there should be a authentication module on it, so I could already recognize Jiang Xiaowei’s information — and then, I saw the two white balls move to the left and right sides, revealing a small, dark space.

“This is …” I couldn’t help but swallow a mouthful of saliva as I tried my best to focus my gaze there.

“This is Tomoko’s inner safe. We have reformed Tomoko’s body.” She put the ball in, “This’ safe ‘can’t be opened without permission. Of course … We can also change it into something that only the Mr Latimer can open. How about it, do you want the Mr Latimer to try it? ”

“I …” This is simply a prank intended to embarrass me!

“After this event, we used even more solid materials to build Tomoko’s body. Don’t look at the fact that her skin is man-made, but beneath her are all hard metals. Therefore, if the Time Capsule was placed in Tomoko’s body, I’m afraid that no one would be able to take it away right? ” Jiang Xiaowei explained before finally taking out the ball and letting Tomoko wear her clothes.

So this was Tomoko’s third treasure! I can’t help but admire it, it’s the perfect solution to the programme’s downside — and of course, I don’t have to carry a stupid suitcase with me all the time.

“Awesome!” I clapped. “If Tomoko can really join our show… I really don’t know what use an ordinary human like me has. ”

“Of course Mr Latimer is useful,” Tomoko’s gentle tone made me recall the scene where she and Jiang Xiaowei had deceived me together, “If there wasn’t a real person to help me, of course I wouldn’t have been able to learn anything about human nature.”

Me? Coaching Tomoko? The more she spoke, the more pleased I became.

“Haha …” For some reason, Jiang Xiaowei suddenly became serious again, “Since Mr Latimer is so honest with us, we also want to ask you some questions.”

I was “flattered,” and it seemed they were trying to get some information from me.

“If it’s not inside information about the company.”

“Hehe, once Tomoko enters the Eloi Company, what other information cannot be obtained?”

“What’s more, the value of my usage is basically zero!” I laughed.

“To get back to the main topic, what I want to say is that this kidnapping isn’t as simple as people think.” “On the surface, the kidnapper’s motive is to be jealous. Ms West’s partner, Frank, fell in love with Tomoko and did something she couldn’t tolerate, so she used a loophole in the program to control the robot to kidnap Tomoko.”

“This is the truth.”

“But there are a lot of things that don’t make sense. After the Master Number Six entered the Eloi Core System, he provided information on the specific locations of the five participants, and we found them. But after questioning them, they all said they didn’t have identical twins. ”

Ah!” This was somewhat inconceivable. “But according to the Grand Master’s reasoning, isn’t it only the identical twins who can exploit the loophole of identification?

“Strangely enough, later on, the hospital issued some evidence that one of them really was West’s identical twin. But what was questionable was that the twins themselves did not admit this. The hospital said the twins separated after they were born, so the person didn’t know. ”

“You can ask their birth mother. She knows best.”

“Too bad he’s dead.”

“…” This was even more unbelievable. “You mean the kidnappers aren’t actually identical twins?”

“I don’t know. I just know that the other twin doesn’t know this.”

“Alright, but there is also the possibility that the twins split up as soon as they were born.”

“But, in that case …” Jiang Xiaowei made a strange expression, “How did the other twins know? Furthermore, if it’s Eloi, I think it would be difficult for you to bribe the hospital to provide these fake materials.

“Eloi? What do you mean? ”

“I mean, what if the whole thing is a forgery? Only the Eloi will be able to do it, us Moloch obviously will not kidnap Tomoko ourselves. ”

“But you’re just assuming.”

“And who provided the bomb?”

“That’s a problem.”

“Ms West doesn’t seem to know how to make bombs, right? What’s more, a liquid bomb is a very ancient technology, I don’t think ordinary people can do it. ”

“Maybe from the black market.”

“But how could the kidnappers have predicted that the show would draw the identical twins she hadn’t seen since she was born?”

“Hehe,” I feel that this kind of tit for tat feeling is very familiar, “Then even Eloi can’t be predicted! If this was all part of Eloi’s scheme … We can’t control the fact that Moloch is going to smoke the identical twins, right? ”

“Thus,” she said while pointing at Tomoko, “Don’t think that Moloch will hand over her trump card to you.”

“Did you send Tomoko to investigate this matter?”

“Not only this, but many other things as well.”

“You’re quite frank!”

“Balance Bureau wishes to see such a scene, so even if our hidden goal is to investigate this matter, Committee Member Cai will not oppose it.”

“Of course, the more we fight to the death, the better it will be for them.”

“Besides, the Mr Latimer would like to know the truth too, right?”

“Me?” After Jiang Xiaowei mentioned this, I also felt that something was amiss. “Not only is it about West, there’s also what happened before …” I remembered the Ms Mistie who cut her wrist and killed herself, as well as the secrets of the “Sleeping Religion” organization, including the mysterious Mr Abaruba.

I felt that the whole world was strange to me, as if there were endless dark secrets waiting to be discovered.

“Yes, I know. And the Castari, as well as the secrets of the Time Capsule. ”

“Time Capsule?”

“Because changing the flow of time is probably scientifically impossible. Even if it is possible, it would be hundreds or even thousands of years later. How could his Castari be so advanced? ”

“Maybe it’s because she is so advanced,” I think that the Ms White is probably already in the Castari by now, “There are many things that Moloch cannot accomplish, but that does not mean that others cannot as well.”

Jiang Xiaowei’s face became sullen, “Should we call Committee Member Cai back?”

“Since you asked me about the kidnapping… I also have something I want to ask you. ”

“If I can.”

“I want to ask what’s wrong with Fantsey.”

“…”

“The Bionic Human that walked out of the legendary robot community, the robot that wants to ask the meditation master how can one become a human.”

“Why do you ask?”

“It seems …” Compared to the peaceful atmosphere at the beginning, I seemed to prefer the current tense moment, “It seems that our two unscrupulous companies really need Balance Bureau to restrict them!”

She and I looked at each other, and only Tomoko didn’t seem to understand the current situation.

I looked at her and suddenly felt sorry for her.

In the future, she would learn more about human nature and the truth of the world. Right now, she was just like a naive child. She was extremely excited to be able to step into the real world, but she didn’t know that …

In fact, even humans had to face such a choice. Was it to find out the truth or even to try to reverse the course of the world, or … Live in a paradise shrouded in lies.

Of course, I was embarrassed to tell Tomoko that a majority of us had made a choice: we would choose to run and play in a virtual paradise, and if the reality surrounding it collapsed one day, we would no longer have the ability to rebuild the world.
