Episode 28

How did you escape?

Did Hao Kang hurt you?

I remember Laiwa Snow Mountain

seems about 2000 kilometers from here,

where were you last night?

How did you get back so quickly this morning?

Anyway, it's good that you're back,

if you'd have come back any later

I would have left to find you.

I wasn't at Laiwa Snow Mountain

that positioning was wrong.

But I guess Hao Kang thought

I was of no use so he let me go.

Well good,

once Ye Kun comes back

let's think of a way to track down Hao Kang.

Okay.

Actually,

I have something else I need to tell you.

What is it?

Nothing, we'll talk some other time.

I have go to get something first.

Qiao You, Xiao Ma.

There's something I want to ask of you.

Si Jia.

Still angry?

I'm not angry.

I also don't know how to advise you.

Because I know in this world

there's no such thing as empathy.

I know you're sad

but just think of a newborn child.

What can predict his life,

the choices he will face, the suffering,

they are all unknown.

Your dad

was also like this before he made you all.

No matter how great

a person he is to this world,

as a father,

he is just a normal human,

he wants to save his child.

This is human nature.

Si Jia

if it was you in trouble,

or Jiang Li, Ye Kun or Xiao Ma,

I believe

he would stop at nothing to save you.

I believe it, don't worry.

Si Jia you can't settle me with just three words.

How can I trust you?

How can I not worry?

At least tell me,

let me know what you really think!

Your brothers and sister entrusted you to me.

You can't act rashly anymore.

I've been taken advantage of by Wen Hao Kang once,

I won't do anything rash again.

In the virtual space that opens the singularity

I met my father.

He told me at no point doubt your family

at no point hurt your family.

I promised him.

That's right, Lao Jin.

No matter

our family's faults, or trials we face,

it cannot era... erase

our love for them.

Zhi Yan always... this... this... said...

said... said... said...

A'Zheng what's wrong?

A'Zheng what's wrong with you?

said... said... said...

A'Zheng.

said... said... said...

There.

In there.

Let's go.

There are three people inside.

They have electronic ear pieces in,

and a woman's voice is coming from one of the headphones.

It must be Wen Hao Kang's assistant Ceng Rou.

She said after counting the goods, to bring the woman out.

That may be Hao Hao's mother.

Could be.

Let go of, let go.

Let go of me, I'll go.

Let go of me.

Where are you taking me?

Let go, you're hurting me.

Let go, let go of me!

Who are you?

Don't be scared, we came to save you.

What actually happened?

In the factory

tens of thousands of Core Robots

have had their programming tampered with.

They can break Asimov's Law.

They can be violent.

I don't know where this woman is transporting them,

but I am certain

that wherever they go it's a disaster!

Calm down.

You are saying

they've sent a large number of killer robots

to be transported somewhere?

Yes.

A total of fifty two...

thousand Core Robots.

They loaded ten cars overnight,

they loaded them non-stop,

there are three hundred cars.

The last one is outside, just loaded.

Then why had they captured you?

Because

theese Core Robots need manufacturer authorisation

in order to go overseas.

I'm the only human manager in the factory.

I have the

authorisation documents to hand.

Although the woman had a stamped

document from Wansheng Space and Time

HQ in her hands...

I...

really couldn't do it.

This is something,

then even if boss Wan Ling comes in person

to personally issue the order, I still can't do it.

Because it goes against my conscience.

Don't worry,

Wan Ling would never issue such an order.

Who are you two?

I'm Wan Ling.

Hao Kang dismantled my network device,

I made a transmitter but he found it in the end,

we fought and I knocked him out and escaped.

So Xiao Ma,

I now need a new network device.

Okay.

But it's hard to buy parts like this,

I'm afraid we'd need a dedicated parts shop.

I'll go,

I know where to go to buy one.

But we're not normal Core Robots,

our production date is too early,

so the ones on the market now may be different.

I'll go with Qiao You and we'll check.

Okay.

Let's go.

An Yi,

oh wait, now I should call you Jiang Li.

I just made some tea, would you like some?

No thank you, I don't drink tea.

Oh right, right.

What is it?

Something wrong?

Just now I heard

Qiao You and Xiao Ma discussing something,

they said

something happened to Qiao Yuan at school,

When I heard it I thought I should let you know.

What?

Something happened?

Then I should get to the school quickly.

You rest up.

Okay, Luo Yun.

Let me.

I was the one who fixed him last time

and my hands didn't shake.

How is it?

No problem.

Professor Jin,

why didn't you have a child of your own?

Cheng Shi Guang is the same age as you

and has a granddaughter.

It was Zhi Yan, her health wasn't so good.

We tried every trick but couldn't get pregnant.

I felt sorry for her, and said let's forget it.

Later she suggested adopting a child.

However,

to educate a child to grow up requires sacrifice,

a huge mental effort.

Her health was in a bad state,

and she coudn't even take care of herself.

If there really was a child in the family,

it would be very difficult for her.

So I refused.

I love Zhi Yan,

I can accept a life without a child,

but I can't live without her.

Anyway,

the heavens were kind to us,

and very soon we got A'Zheng,

and he became our son.

Professor Jin,

you regard him as your son?

But he's not the same as us,

he's just a normal Core Robot.

No, no, no.

He's not just a normal Core Robot.

Since the day he came to our house

he has been our son.

We are a family of three,

travelling together, gardening,

watching movies and listening to music.

The memories between the three of us

are full of beauty and warmth.

How can you say he's just a normal Core Robot?

Just like the rose of The Little Prince.

I remember... The Little Prince.

He said

about my rose,

an ordinary passerby

might

feel the same as you,

but this one flower

is more important than all of you together.

Because I have watered it,

because I have put it in a glass dome,

because I protected it with a screen,

because I kept it safe from caterpillars,

by killing them, apart from the one or two butterflies.

Because I listened when it complained or boasted,

or even sometimes when it said nothing at all.

Because it is my rose

in the universe... verse...

the only... only... rose... rose...

That's right yes,

my A'Zheng,

he carries emotions and memories,

so,

he's irreplaceable.

Professor Jin,

you'd better go out and wait,

with you here, I can't concentrate.

A'Zheng,

all your motherboards are old and dying,

I can't save you.

You have 48 percent charge left.

Think about how you want to say goodbye to Lao Jin.

Why are they not out yet?

Is it so slow to bring someone out?

You, come with me.

Okay,

let's get out of here.

Ye Kun!

You again.

And you.

I remember you have a son called Hao Hao right?

Six years old this year,

with a red birthmark behind his ear.

If you want to see him again,

you'd best hand over the documentation fast.

I can't waste my time with you here.

Jiang Jie, don’t believe her.

They have my son.

Your son is with us.

What? Capture them!

Wan Ling, get her out of here.

Let's go.

How do I know I can trust you?

Think about it,

you never told us your name,

how would we know you're called Jiang Jie?

Trust me, come on.

Come on, quickly.

Li Yao.

I have to telll him.

Li Yao?

Li...

Li Yao.

Here you are, I was looking for you.

I have something I need to tell you.

What is it?

It's something I just learned myself.

It turns out my brain is Hao Kang's.

In order to save my life,

dad performed brain transplant surgery on me.

But he was sacrificed.

Li Yao it's okay,

I knew this too.

I...

You knew?

Then why didn't you tell me?

What good would telling you do?

Can you give Hao Kang back his brain?

Jiang Li.

What's wrong?

Are you okay?

What's wrong?

Li Yao.

Do you know how much I regret it?

Regret?

What do you regret?

I regret,

performing transplant surgery on you and Hao Kang.

I regret saving you.

What did you say?

All those years ago

the person who performed the transplant wasn't dad,

but you.

Jiang Li

in your heart

isn't Li Yao the most important thing?

Today,

I am going to make you personally

murder him.

You're not Jiang Li.

In the one whose life you took,

you and Li Jianwei.

The trampled Core Robot.

Hao Kang.

You're Hao Kang.

You're controlling Jiang Li.

Jiang Li, wake up.

Jiang Li!

Because of you

I wandered like a monster for ten years.

Because of you

I was thrown away like rubbish by my own father.

Jiang Li. Your life is mine.

Today I will take it back!

Jiang Li.

Wake up.

It's Li Yao...

It's Li Yao, Jiang Li...

What?

You don't dare to?

Jiang Li, it's Li Yao.

Wake up.

I am going to make Jiang Li murder you.

Make her regret that between me and you

she chose you!

Quick get in the car, here. Okay.

Where you just said my son was, is it true?

Of course!

I'll give him a call.

Hao Hao!

Is it Wan Ling?

Did you rescue my mum?

I'm hungry,

but I want to wait for my mum to come back before I eat.

Tonight,

I want to order the same lobster rice from last night!

Hao Hao.

Mum!

Is it you mum?

It's me, it's me.

Hao Hao, are you okay?

I'm good mum.

Wan Ling looked after me,

and you, are you okay?

I'm good. I really miss you.

Come back quick, we can go home together.

Okay, we'll go home together.

Hao Hao, promise me

that you will wait obediently in the hotel.

Okay? Okay.

Okay, I've got to go now.

Miss Wan,

thank you.

Thank you for saving Hao Hao.

Don't even mention it,

I should be the one thanking you.

Your perseverance

saved Wansheng Space and Time from a historic disaster.

You are indispensable.

Thank you for understanding, Miss Wan.

Does your friend need help?

We'll only cause my trouble by helping,

these people are no match for him.

Don't worry.

So the next thing we have to do

is report the situation to the police on the ground.

But the trouble now is

if these people have found

the authorisation documents of these Core Robots,

even if we catch these little gangsters

we can't stop them from going to sea.

These are the documents.

I've been hiding this.

Don't worry,

I'll call customs in a moment and handle it.

Don't!

Jiang Li don't do this, let go!

She's not Jiang Li right now, quickly turn her off.

Jiang Li.

Jiang Li! Jiang Li!

Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable.

Please call again later.

Qiao You, go get the laptop

so I can check her system. Okay.

Xiao Ma, you go tell Ye Kun that Jiang Li is back,

tell him to come back. Got it.

Jiang Li.

Jiang Li?

Jiang Li.

Jiang Li, are you okay?

Li Yao,

the memory of what just happened is still there,

did I hurt you?

I'm sorry it wasn't intentional.

And Qiao You. I'm okay.

I know, it's okay.

You were taken over by Hao Kang just now.

You charge back up first,

and when Ye Kun is back we'll have a think

and work out what to do next.

I'll get a message to Si Jia

and get her to come here. Okay.

He's fixed.

He's really fixed.

Lao Jin,

I have a gift for you.

A'Zheng,

can you smell it?

I cannot detect the smell,

what smell is this?

It's hard to describe,

sweet, fresh, aromatic, just like...

the taste of love.

Happy and prosperous, full of vitality.

When we love someone

we must cherish it.

What is love, is it like you love Lao Jin

and Lao Jin loves you?

Yes A'Zheng.

I love you too.

Lao Jin,

I also love you and Zhi Yan.

I... I only have 2 percent charge left.

I will shut down.

A'Zheng, A'Zheng!

What's wrong, what's happening?

His motherboard has been completely destroyed

and all the memories have been extracted,

it has become what you see now

which has almost consumed all his power.

Why, why?

I asked his system before executing the order.

It was his own decision.

A'Zheng, don't.

Professor Jin.

This is A'Zheng's way of saying goodbye to you.

No, A'Zheng.

Lao...Lao...Lao Jin. A'Zheng. Jin.

A'Zheng no.

A'Zheng!

A'Zheng.

A'Zheng.

A'Zheng.

Hang on.

This kid doesn't seem to like me much,

I'll not come in.

Okay.

Hao Hao! Mum!

Come here.

Let me look at you.

Are you okay mum?

I'm okay, I'm okay.

You're okay.

I was so scared.

Thank you Miss Wan.

Sit down.

Come on.

I'm relieved to see you both reunited again.

I heard from the dock

and some Core Robots have been transported

back to Wansheng Space and Time.

A.I. experts will be there by noon tomorrow.

They will help you clear the abnormal program.

Okay.

In half an hour we will go to the airport to return home.

This, I'll leave to you.

Please don't worry Miss Wan, leave it to me.

Wan Ling are you leaving?

Yeah.

I've asked the hotel to prepare lobster rice for you,

but I have to catch the plane so I can't eat with you.

But when you're back home, I'll take you out to eat okay?

Wan Ling, is that guy also going with you?

Yeah.

Wan Ling, come here a second.

I have a secret thing to tell you.

Come closer.

Wan Ling, can you apologise for me?

Although he's fierce,

I still like him quite a lot.

If you like him and want to be with him,

I will never rebel again!

Then why don't you tell him yourself?

I don't want to!

Okay.

Be good for your mum and I'll see you again soon.

Okay?

I'd better go. Okay.

Miss Wan, have a safe journey.

Goodbye. Goodbye Wan Ling.

Bye.

I'll go.

Bye. Bye.

Guess what the kid said.

I don't need to guess, I heard.

Spoilsport.

Okay, let's go,

Li Yao is waiting for us.

If the singularity is opened,

would he live?

Si Jia,

what are you thinking?

Just like Xiao Ma, have you ever thought about

if A'Zheng could have consciousness

he'll be just like a real person, react to every word you say,

experience joy, anger and sorrow

like a living person, a real person.

He would become your real child.

No.

This is enough just like this.

Being human comes with a lot of pain,

I don't want him to experience that.

I want to open the singularity because of my anger.

I realised I wasn't being treated equally.

Compared to humans, Core Robots

have a more perfect appearance

and more powerful abilities.

But why can't we enjoy the right

to live in this world like human beings?

To be treated like a machine and at the mercy of others.

Why are humans afraid of the singularity?

Is it because of the unknown? Yes.

Once the singularity comes it means

Core Robots have the ability to evolve on their own.

Tens of thousands of robots will become different due

to their different experiences.

Their power will have a huge impact on the world.

It's a pity that this day

will eventually come,

isn't it?

Si Jia,

what are you up to?

Professor Jin, I've got to go,

Ye Kun is back.

I want to meet up with them.

Where are you going?

I can't face you all.

All this is my fault,

it's me hurting my own kind,

turned him into some kind of devil,

and then he comes to hurt you all, hurt my family.

I almost killed you!

I should be the one apologising.

In order to save me

you hurt a loved one.

I realise now that every time you see me

you must think of him.

This hurts you again and again,

but you choose to remain silent.

In order to protect me, protect our family,

you've endured this alone for many years.

Sis,

you've suffered.

But this was my decision.

Wasn't it your choice

that led to my survival?

Ye Kun is back, let's go and meet them.
