Chapter 108
That’s a personal attack!” Quantum could no longer stay calm.
But when Quantum saw Marina Bailey’s face, his anger was immediately died down..
Because Marina was really very good–looking!
Even an anime enthusiast like Quantum, who had seen countless women, could not find any flaws on Marina’s face.
“Damn!
“We are both hackers. How come she’s so good–looking?
“It’s so not fair!” Quantum thought.
Quantum had always thought that Chaos was a smelly man with a scraggly beard who wore flip–flops all day and would not shower for two weeks!
How did “he” suddenly become such a sweet–smelling beautiful lady?
“I want to cry…” Quantum thought.
Marina glanced at Quantum from the corner of her eye.
“Actually, Quantum is not ugly.
“It’s just that he looks so… young.
“He is like a junior high school student who hasn’t gone through puberty,” Marina thought.
However, Marina knew the guy in front of her was already in his twenties.
“Speaking of which, who did you offend? They even busted your headquarters?” Marina Bailey asked curiously.
After all, Marina believed in Quantum hacking abilities.
Moreover, she was sure that Quantum was extremely good at hiding.
Back then, she had spent a lot of time trying to find Quantum.
“That person’s a lunatic who won’t let go of me. I sensed that he was about to catch me, so I had no choice but to blow up my headquarters to avoid further damage.” Quantum’s heart ached when he thought about it.
Then, he looked at Marina with a serious face.
“That’s why I came all the way here to seek refuge with you. You must protect me. I’m just a defenseless little geek.” Quantum’s eyes were sparkling with anticipation.
Marina was speechless.
Her hands holding the steering wheel shook involuntarily out of annoyance for Quantum.
“If you don’t want me to throw you out of the car now, stop looking at me with that disgusting gaze.”
Quantum became serious in a split second.
Because the Bailey family was also dealing with some issues, Marina did not bring Quantum back to the family home. Instead, she arranged for Quantum to live in a property under her name.
Chapter 108
When the car arrived at the door, the
“Welcome home, Ms. Bail
system detected Marina’s face in the car and automatically opened the door.
a mechanical voice said.
When Marina parked the car and brought Quantum into the house, the smart home system had turned on the lights and opened the curtains.
“Ms. Bailey, I’ve already turned on the ventilation system for you. The lights have been adjusted to the most comfortable. brightness. Would you like some music to relax from the journey?” The smart system speaker on the TV stand flashed.
“Sure,” Marina Bailey dropped the car keys on the coffee table and replied carelessly.
“Alright, now playing Union Dixie for you.” As soon as the AI system finished speaking, a deafening prelude started blasting in the living room.
Marina was rendered speechless again.
She shot the system a displeased look.
“Oh, it seems that Ms. Bailey doesn’t like the song I’ve carefully chosen for you. I’ll switch to another song for you now.” The Al system seemed to have sensed Marina’s anger and finally played some suitable light music.
“Wow, is this Phoenix, the smart home system you told me about last time?” Quantum was very interested in the AI speaker and picked it up without asking.
“Sir, please get your dirty hands off me. Phoenix’s voice instantly became cold.
If one listened carefully, they can even tell that there was a hint of disdain in the voice.
“Wow, it really has human emotions?” The excitement in Quantum’s eyes intensified.
Previously, Chaos had told him that she was trying to develop an intelligent system capable of human emotions.
Quantum didn’t expect that she actually succeeded.
“Phoenix is just an experimental prototype. There are still many things to be perfected. Perhaps we can work on it together now that you are here, Marina said..
“Sure. I’ve been researching this before, but I encountered a problem and haven’t made any progress, Quantum replied.
“Dirty mister, please don’t look at me with such a creep gaze. A dirty person like you does not deserve my noble presence.” Phoenix’s disdainful voice sounded again.
“Who’s dirty? How are my hands dirty? They are clean!” Quantum felt that this Al system was asking for a beating.
“Smelly men are naturally dirty.”
“Hey, you’re just an Al system. How could you be so sexist?” Quantum could no longer stay calm.
“You’ve been warned three times. You’ll be punished by electric shock!” As soon as Phoenix finished, Quantum felt a sting in his fingertips.
Quantum quickly pulled his hand away.
However, even though Quantum was fast, his fingertips were still shocked by the current. A faint black mark was now visible on his fingers
“Hey! How come you are attacking people? What happened to the Three Laws of Robotics? Don’t you know that a disobedient Al system like you should be neutralized?” Quantumn shouted angrily.
“Danger sensed. Preparing long–range electric shock.“
Chapter 108
When Quantum heard Phoenix’s words, he quickly jumped behind Marina.
Phoenix suddenly became quiet.
20/47%
“Ha, I handeled you just like that. Try electrifing your maker if you can!” Quantum felt that he had won against the robot.
“I didn’t set up the long–range electric shock function for Phoenix.” Marina knocked Quantum’s hand off of her shoulder.
Quantum was at a loss for words.
“What? your system actually knows how to lie? Don’t you know that lying is not ethical?” After being deceived by an Al. Quantum felt embarrassed.
But no matter how he shouted, Phoenix no longer responded.
“Why isn’t it talking? Did you cut its power?” Quantum turned to look at Marina.
“It thinks you’re too stupid,” Marina said calmly.
I’ve set up an independent security system for this house. Usually, no one would be able to find this place. I’ll get someone to send you supplies on time. Please don’t leave without permission unless it’s an emergency. Otherwise, I’m not taking any responsibility if your enemies catch you.
“Also, other than my master bedroom, you can use whichever room you want. There’s a laboratory in the basement. You can go there to kill time when you’re bored.
“If there’s anything you don’t understand, just ask Phoenix. It’s connected to the entire house’s Al system, Marina explained.
“Don’t worry, as long as there’s food and water, I can stay indoors for three years!” As a veteran homebody, Quantum had already forgotten about how to go outside.
“Okay, let me know if you need anything.” Marina got up to leave as soon as she finished her sentence,
“Sure, Quantum replied.
After Marina left, he went on to tease Phoenix.
At the same time.
At the Hernandez family home.
Gavin Johnson hurried toward the study on the second floor.
