Thinking of this, Kong ignored Paimon's increasingly frightened look and slid his index finger down along the spine of the Black Tower doll and pressed on the lumbar sacral area. A captivating blue light emerged from his eyes, and the spiritual energy that had just penetrated for half a day began to close in, locking a part of Black Tower's spirit that had penetrated into the doll into this body.
“…Ah~!”
Heita suddenly felt a tingling sensation on her spine, and then the emptiness in her arms and legs made her whole body stiffen, and she couldn't help but let out a small cry of surprise.
"…This work is not as sophisticated as I thought. What kind of a thing is this… Oh? Why is it moving?"
Kong's cold, moist breath blew on Heita's hat and hair, making her shiver.
"...Dr. Kong, I lost. You kidnapped my consciousness and cracked the link where my consciousness was written..."
Heita's voice, full of resentment and grievance, was reflected muffledly from the surface of the coffee table. From Kong's perspective, one could see that her ears were already half ripe.
"Now... please turn me around and put my legs back together... huh?"
"The AI is very lifelike. If there were no flaws in the joints, it would be a qualified cup."
112. The Black Tower is played to the extreme!
"Wait, wait a minute!! I'm not an AI, I'm the real person, the Black Tower himself!"
"Did this hit some strange switch? Black Tower also makes its own clone personality? This thing is too dangerous, why not just destroy it."
"…Dr. Sora!"
While feeling Sora's touch on his spine, Heita said in a muffled voice, "It was my fault that I couldn't install it online before! But please don't cut off the central nervous system connection. The connection is locked now. If you forcibly cut it off, my consciousness may be damaged. Even if I can recover, I will be unconscious for a while. Are you listening?"
"Why do you keep emphasizing the risks of doing this... Could it be that AI has acquired the human instinct for survival? Hiss..."
Kong said sinisterly, "Why don't we try cutting her back muscles? Will the pain further stimulate her desire to live?"
"Dr. Kong, you did this on purpose... You were the one who used your psychic power to capture me, how could you not know that I am real?!"
Hearing this, Heita suddenly calmed down and stopped trying to struggle. Her tone was subtle, and she was ready to use the special power of the Intellectual Order to escape from Kong's clutches.
But before that could happen, Kong loosened his grip on her spine and sat down on the sofa, allowing her to turn over and stare at him fixedly.
It is better to stop at the right time and not let the Black Tower suffer mental trauma when counterattacking his own psychic power.
And strictly speaking, as a fake messenger, I can't do anything to the Black Tower when it is fully powered up. I can only scare her.
"Ha, I just want to remind you that no matter how awesome you are, as long as you keep this reckless mentality, you will eventually fall one day, Black Tower."
Kong stared at Heita's raised body with a playful look, pinched her puppet's legs in his hands and shook them, with a villain look on his face: "I kept calling you before, but you didn't agree - I'm more curious, if I really do something with your puppet, what are you going to do?"
"…secretly open a little bit of neural perception and synchronize it with my body."
Heita was not sure what his emotion was now: "I had been disconnecting the attached neurons before, so you didn't tickle me - I was a little curious about what the reaction would be after contact with the opposite sex I care about... I planned to just send back the feeling without operating the doll, but you didn't give me the opportunity to experiment."
She was a little angry but also inexplicably relieved, with even the corners of her mouth rising. Thinking of how she had no dignity when struggling under the empty hand just now, and how she had already lost all the power contained in the name of Black Tower, she simply lay down on the coffee table, not in a hurry to get her legs and arms back.
"Experiments and the like... you haven't had any experience before, right?" Kong's expression became a little subtle.
"Well, I went online prepared to treat Dr. Kong as my first man, and I also told Himeko about it in advance. She said it was up to us. Since Himeko is the owner of the train, after getting her permission, uploading my consciousness would not be considered illegal intrusion."
Heita's speech was so sincere that Kong didn't know how to complain.
"Heita, you have lived through so many Amber Ages. You should understand how terrible it is to return to loneliness, right?"
Sora gave up his intention to tease her and started to help the doll connect its legs.
"I'm not afraid. Even if you leave, I have Ji Zi, Ruan Mei and Luo Lu Gu Mu to accompany me. I don't have to worry about dying alone. What's there to be afraid of?"
She did not show the mental exhaustion that some of the immortals that Kong had seen must have. Maybe her mind was really strong:
"As long as it has happened before - I have a brilliant idea! If you run away or die, I will make a doll with your model and write your movements and habits into it..."
"...Wait a minute, this is a bit out of scope. Tsk, how come I'm the one who's scared in the end..." Sora muttered.
Hearing this, Heita continued to move her legs and found that Kong had connected all her neurons in just three steps - the warm feeling in her calves came from Kong's hands.
Towards this strange yet comfortable warmth, Heita's first reaction was not to avoid it. She even moved her body forward so that her empty hand could be filled by the firmer part of her legs. This was quite courageous and went against common sense.
But alas, even though Kurita had placed her heel on Sora's knee, sliding further towards his belly, Sora immediately reached for his other arm, ready to install it on her.
This unwavering attitude in the face of temptation made Heita slightly proud:
"…Is it because my doll is so damaged that Dr. Sora didn't respond to me?"
"I was just wondering, you are a person with super obsessive compulsive disorder, why would you just upload your consciousness into an imperfect body to send it thousands of miles away?"
He gave her a blank look.
"Esda and Jizi taught me that women must learn to act pitiful. I must look extremely pitiful right now... According to this rule, you should pay more attention to me." Heita's tone was full of false confidence.
But seeing your expression that looks like you deserve a beating again, I don't feel the slightest bit of pity for you——
Empty stomach slander.
"Why don't you learn from the good things but just learn to be lazy... Have you learned the lesson just now?"
"If you mean don't let anyone mess with the puppets that have infiltrated... I wouldn't be so unguarded towards others. I was able to be controlled because I trusted Dr. Sora enough."
She awkwardly threw the blame back to Sora and put on an expectant look again: "...After all this talk, can we continue? If I don't make any progress tonight, Himeko will definitely tease me."
"…But your hardware is so poor, it's hard for me to help you?"
Sora sighed, pretending to stand up with embarrassment, and looked at the puppet with his chin raised. "Didn't I tell you before that either you tell me your address and I'll come find you in person, or you come find me in person? This is basic equality and respect. How can you have emotional connection through fake skin?"
"But Dr. Sora has lots of female companions, and I have no experience, so that's not fair, right?"
Heita's eyes lit up, and he immediately argued.
"... Let me try it with the puppet first, and then decide whether to put the real body into the experiment, how about that? Doctor Sora, why don't you conduct a few more simulation experiments to ensure that the success rate and compatibility of the actual experiment reach the theoretical maximum value, so that it will be fair-"
Damn, Heita, you are really a genius!
Kong looked shocked. He paused for nearly half a minute before he slowly spoke: "Okay... Then go prepare a higher quality puppet and come back to me. Let me make it clear that I will only wait for you for one night. I still have to train Dan Heng and the others tomorrow morning."
Paimon, who was hanging back on the chandelier, heard this and immediately showed dead fish eyes -
The situation that Youla was worried about, "the woman is super determined," finally happened.
113. Please, take the test!
Apart from Sora, even Pam didn't know what the broken doll in the black tower did when it left in the dark and ran back to the train with so many bags.
But when everyone got up the next morning, they found that Kong was already tidying up the "assembly site". The coffee table was piled with simulated leather scraps and parts, and the guest room door was wide open. He was clearing them out bit by bit, and it seemed that he had been busy all night just to completely repair the doll.
Looking closely, the puppet's arms have been attached, and even the seams of the legs and the ball joints between the elbows are covered with new "skin".
The puppet now looked exactly like a real person. No exposed joints could be seen. Its facial expression was calm, lacking some of the arrogance that Black Tower should have, and instead had a look of strange satisfaction.
Because of the slightly smiling expression, the annoying genius actually looks quite cute. I don’t know if Sora helped her put on light makeup, but the doll’s face is actually rosy...
"…Did you fix her doll last night?"
When Eula, who was cleaning the wine bottles, passed by, she looked at the elbow of the black tower doll in disbelief, leaned down slightly, and confirmed that the natural skin and wrinkles had no mechanical traces and no roughness of artificial products.
"Is it necessary to take it so seriously? It's just a doll for communication."
"Ah? You didn't hear the noise I made yesterday..."
Hearing this, Kong, who had originally prepared himself to be scolded, suddenly became confused, and his hands that were picking up the materials and debris stopped.
"…Maybe the soundproofing is too good… Could it be that you have done this before?"
Eula immediately understood what Sora meant.
"Well... I cleaned her up in the early hours of the morning. This is what it looks like now that I've fixed her up and cleaned her up."
Golden Retriever felt embarrassed because he was busy replacing parts for the dolls and directing the Black Tower to transport various high-end equipment and materials into the house yesterday, which made some noise. In addition, the guy behind him couldn't help but raise his voice by several decibels, so Kong thought he had been exposed to the three girls in the house a long time ago.
But from what Eula said, they were sleeping very soundly, so there was no such thing as "tacit consent". He still had to admit with his own mouth that he lacked self-control.
"Tsk, this guy is really good at sneaking away... and you... actually still have some in stock?"
This time, when Eula looked at Kong, there was not only a hint of complaint in her eyes, but also a more dangerous and strange look.
"Three wasn't enough and you even added a midnight snack - you're really awesome. It looks like I won't have to go easy on you in the future, humph."
"It was obvious that there was not much oil left at that time, but it recovered after just a few hours... The doctor's 'productivity' really cannot be underestimated."
Holhaiya didn't know when he quietly touched Kong's back, with the tip of his tail against his chest ribs, "gently" looking for his weakness.
"What do you think? Should we keep pestering you for a little longer to reduce your motivation to attack other women?"
"No, Heita and I worked on the modification until about five o'clock before it was almost finished."
Kong concealed some information, such as how many times the Black Tower had conducted experiments and how many times Kong had been asked to change equipment during the experiment... These were all very critical "evidence of conviction".
Later on, the guy in Black Tower became addicted to the game. Relying on the fact that she was not using the original body and would not get hurt, she scanned and printed the inner liner herself and installed it on the doll on the spot.
To be honest, Kong was quite reluctant to replace the inner liner, but Heita kept begging him.
Thinking back to the terrifying experience in the early morning, Sora couldn't help but be absent-minded.
"Let's test it!"
"Want me to test you? Beg me."
"Please, take the test!"
“…I can’t stand it anymore!”
Heita's moral integrity and ethics were completely unknown...but when she pleaded in a fake, delicate voice, even Kong couldn't hold it back and performed a forward four for her on the spot.
If it happens once, there will be countless times. Heita actually started to work on her set of experimental propositions. She first tested the "tolerance of ballet high leg lifts", then tested the "attack speed bonus of black silk", and finally tested the "osmotic energy agent drip irrigation absorption efficiency".
She wrote three papers in one night, but Kong Du asked her not to publish them, especially not to send them to Bo Shi Zun, otherwise he would break off his relationship with Heita.
She is a scientist who has recently focused on mechanical structure and materials science. In many ways, she has made progress in biological research and human social theory with the help of Kong. She is even very confident that she is closer to the essence of the theory than Ruan Mei - because Ruan Mei has not conducted any field research, but she has.
"Paimon, when did he start hanging out with Black Tower?"
Being brought back from his thoughts, Sora realized that Eula had already called up Paimon who was hanging on the chandelier.
"Huha, I don't know... I fell asleep in the first half of the night."
Paimon did not betray Sora and was pulled out of the lamp by Eula with sleepy eyes - after all, she was not a superhero like Sora and Kurita who could stay up all night. She was already fast asleep when they were choosing the material to replace the original skin of the doll. Naturally, she did not watch the following big shows.
"Tsk, you didn't catch me... Paimon, you didn't supervise me well enough. I'll remember this grudge!"
"Hey!! What does this have to do with me? If I had nowhere else to go except the living room, I wouldn't want to get involved!"
