Lobotomy Corporation but with Simulation System?

Chapter 25: Stay away



"I'm so angry, even this vending machine is broken?"

X angrily hits the metal vending machine, at 3 seconds ago, vending machine swallows X work card points without spitting out any drinks.

She didn't know why, something went wrong... The vending machine malfunctioned, it just swallowed and didn't throw out the goods.

When people are in a bad mood, it seems like they won't be satisfied with anything they do. Also bad luck will appear, one after another, drinking cold water can make their teeth numb.

X just wanted a can of strawberry soda, such a small wish, but the vending machine was not willing to satisfy, after swallowing the money, it refused to carry out X's orders, where is the dignity of the Manager?

Being toyed with by the AI, being shown off by Dean, and now even a small vending machine in the hallway can bully the Manager.

Even though it's only been three days, why is this three days, X feels like this is 3 years of patience...

—— It really makes me angry!

X, who had just been angered by Netzach's behavior, looked at this 'Stubbornly Unchanged' vending machine. Her blood pressure really rose. The more she thought about it, the angrier and more aggrieved she became, and there was nowhere to vent.

"Bang!"

X kicked the vending machine in extreme anger, the hard metal shell of the vending machine suddenly deformed, the edge is completely sunken, exposing internal structure and wiring.

"It hurts, it hurts, oh oh."

Vending machine is damaged, X herself is also hurt by the reaction force.

But considering the seriousness of the injury, the vending machines are more severely affected, even though the force is mutual, the vending machine takes damage it shouldn't.

After being beaten hard by X, the vending machine began to spit out drinks, one bottle after another of drinks rolling down and out, piling up from the dispenser's mouth to the floor of the hallway.

The vending machine spits out all the drinks in stock, not even a single bottle is left over.

X was also stunned, she didn't expect the vending machine to react so much, she just kicked it, the result was such serious damage...

[Manager, what are you doing? Do you know, if you maliciously damage the Corporation's assets, even the Manager will have to accept punishment.]

X didn't know when Angela came here. The AI checked the injury on the vending machine. The injury on the vending machine was very serious and was assessed as completely broken.

"Angela, it bully me first!"

Xnever thought that the vending machine would 'complain' first, clearly the machine made a mistake first, but she was blamed first, is this reasonable? This is collusion, favoritism, AI protecting the same clan!

Although AI and vending machines are not the same type...

[Manager, don't move, I'll check... You may have muscle strain or other problems right now]

AI Secretary touches X's body, using some mysterious medical technique called 'bone massage' or 'pulse checking'.

After kneading X's thighs, the AI was so horrible that X said[There's something wrong with your body that I can't understand at the moment, I suggest you do a healthy check, I need more detailed data from you. ]

But X was still afraid of punishment, basically unaware that AI Secretary's punishment had actually been carried out.

"Where's that punishment, Angela... you won't do it?"

[Do you expect me to do this? Property damage compensation will be deducted from your salary card ]

The dignified AI secretary is actually indifferent to the life and death of vending machines, what she really cares about is that X caused a trail of damage to the vending machine.

In her impression... X's strength is not that great.

She feels the same when being pinched, she doesn't have such muscles, softness, great strength... Is it really caused by intense emotions...?

"Angela, let's keep this matter as it is, okay or not... I don't even think about being in debt."

[I will calculate based on your performance... Sigh, Manager, don't do such naive things. If employees see this situation, new trivia will be circulated among them, you know, your image represents the company's image.]

Although AI Secretary still wants to experience more of this feeling of being pleased by X, if she teases her too much, X will also react with a strong reaction, so... just stops here.

A little teasing is fine, there's a limit to it.

AI has always been rational, stupid people will be short-sighted and focused on the little profit in front of them, without paying attention to the long-term profit and the big result in the end.

Artificial intelligence knows how to maximize profits, but sometimes it will be affected by a little emotion.

Roughly... It's a bit of a bad feeling.

... More profound than despair, hotter than hope...

Those emotions should be suppressed, silently watching everything that happened, like passersby in a book.

"Poof ——!"

There was a sound of something spitting out, the carbon-acid soft drink was vibrating violently like a fireworks detonator was being ejected from the mouth of the can, the force causing it to fly around.

Because X accidentally stepped on the drinks piled up in the hallway, she lost her balance.

In some miraculous way, after hitting the wall a few times, it changed direction and flew towards Angela's head, dark brown filled with carbonated sugar and liquid carbon-acid falling on AI Secretary's body.

Whether it was the black uniform on the inside or the white coat on the outside, it was contaminated by the drink, and even that beautiful light blue hair was a little bit sugary and carbonated.

[Manager...?]

"I'm done, I'm done!"

The reaction speed this time was super fast, far faster than her reaction speed in other problems. The moment this thing happened, she realized what would happen next.

—— Too unlucky!

—— It's also Netzach's fault!

—— Bad luck bad luck!!!

X's scolding in her heart, but dare not neglect at all, using a speed that even employees in a state of crisis cannot match, because X's current state is more in crisis than an employee in crisis.

Can an employee understand this kind of desperation?

What a joke, are Abnormalities as scary as AI? No matter how you think about it, AI is even more terrifying, right?

X rushed into the Information Department office at absolute speed. After barging into the office, she slammed the door shut.

"Manager, are you that impolite? Don't know how to knock? It seems that I will have to re-evaluate the performance of the new Manager."

In the office of the Information Department Dean Yesod was frightened by the sudden intrusion of X.

"Stop talking Yesod, my life is almost over! Quickly block the door!"

X squatted down and planned to hide under the sofa, but because she was 1m78, she couldn't hide under the sofa.

"Manager, what happened...? Is Abnormalities rioting? That's not right, Abnormalities are hibernating right now, I haven't received any information... Angela should have been able to detect this kind of situation."

"So much more serious than this kind of thing, Yesod!"

X started trying to get under the desk in the office, but the Manager's behavior was so obvious that there was no way for Yesod to explain.

"What's going on, Manager, calm down and say things clearly. Your expression is extremely chaotic right now."

'Viper' Yesod was trying to calm down the frightened X, but the effect was too small, X curled up in a corner, shaking extremely badly.

"Angela wants to pack me up..."

"Manager, no matter what, this kind of thing is unlikely to happen."

Yesod's face was full of disbelief, Information Department Dean is very rational, but there are some things that don't require any evidence to know the answer, like everyone agrees that 1+1=2 answers .

"Then are you sure, Yesod, you are not Angela, do you have any intelligence or evidence to prove this?"

Falling into a confused state, X was very aggressive.

Even though the answer 1+1=2 is obvious at a glance, trying to prove 1+1=2 is still really troublesome. How can I prove that Angela won't do anything X? How to prove it?

Yesod started to feel a headache, extremely awkward, coaxing X was like coaxing a troublesome child, but now it was clear that she couldn't hear anything Yesod said.

How could I not see it before... It turns out she still has that kind of side.

"Manager, you are not Angela, why are you so sure that Angela will fire you?"

"... Not the same!"

X hesitated, she couldn't say that Angela had done many things like this, the first step into the office could become the reason for resignation... Although, it's only happened in the simulation... But the feeling is there!

"She is truly mechanical, cold and merciless..."

"Manager, even though I don't trust Angela... But Angela will not do anything detrimental to the Corporation."

Yesod lamented and said, among Dean, she is the most rational, and at the same time the most objective person... Although she does not agree with Angela's way of doing things, Angela's ability is definitely worthy of recognition.

Unfortunately, Yesod's chat topic and X's chat topic are not on the same channel.

After listening to Yesod, X analyzed for half a day without coming up with any useful opinions.

"I accidentally splashed Cocacola on Angela, Yesod, are you listening? Are you sure Angela is really cold and heartless and won't care about anything? I feel like she's especially narrow-minded."

"Phoc, what are you talking about, Manager...? Did you accidentally splash Cocacola on Angela's body?

Yesod couldn't hold back her cold expression, Information Department Dean unconsciously mobilized surveillance to determine the authenticity of the story.

Then she saw what happened in the corridor of the Information Department, on the video, X and AI acted, although this was very inappropriate, but when the Coke can fell on Angela's head, Yesod really couldn't help but laugh.

"... This really makes me a little surprised." But well done!

Yesod spoke a little, but in the end she still didn't say the words that were on her mind.

And when it was related to this topic, when they were ready to continue talking, the AI Secretary finally arrived.

In the Corporation, there was no way to retreat, it was useless for X to hide, even at this time Angela just arrived, as if she was playing hide and seek, her speed was especially slow.

[Manager, when you're tired of playing, come out from under the table, don't bother Yesod's work]

[Yesod, the document I gave you before hasn't been processed yet? I originally thought you were rational and trustworthy, but now you're being careless with the Manager.]

AI Secretary's touching voice sounded to X as if asking for her life, but even though she was not willing, she forced herself to crawl out from under the table under pressure.

It was useless to hide behind Yesod. Information Department Dean handed X over and gave her to Angela.

AI Secretary's clothes are clean and not loose, without any traces of anything. It's almost like she changed her clothes again, and her body was washed again before coming here.

[Manager, I need to take care of something, please go back to Manager's room to rest, don't run around everywhere, this is for your safety.]

It was probably a threat, but X was really scared. She accepted her fate and walked towards the Manager's room, waiting for Angela to finish the matter and then go punish X.

After confirming that X really did not wander around this time, Angela closed the door of the Information Department office and began to discuss business matters with Yesod.

[Yesod, this recording needs to be processed, then the information inside, delete it.]

Different videos displayed in multiple split screens, not all information will be retained, returned to the file, in fact... the majority of information will also be destroyed.

Also employees' information, Abnormalities' information...

Some information that is relatively sensitive to employees is subject to certain processing. Abnormalities' data entrusted to the employee is also 'selected' by the Information Department.

Essentially, they hope some information can appease employees, increasing employees' trust and confidence in their work, without causing them to panic.

Just like [Fairy Festival ]'s 'real' information is super popular among employees, some true information is somewhat unnecessary to publish, but if it can bring positive influence to employees, then there is no need to reveal the true information.

As long as they believe and are willing to believe, things will be fine...

[...Yesod, this part also needs to be cleaned up.]

Angela pointed out that something funny happened at the vending machine in the corridor. If it is circulated, it may become a new type of joke. AI Secretary will not let such a thing happen.

Although it is the Information Department, the Information Department's main job is to eliminate intelligence.
