"Today's Yamato Radio and Literature Museum will appreciate the masterpiece at the end of the 21st century - [The Heart of Observer No. 9] at the request of the crew member nicknamed Shinta.

This is today's opening remark...

Technical Department Analysis Room

"Transfer the visual sensor from Puppet A to B"

Analysts stood in front of the machine, controlling the robotic arm to replace body parts for the Gamyras puppet robot

"Successful transplant"

"Thank you for your hard work, analyst..."

Beiyu was assigned to repair the body of the Gamyras puppet today

"Analyst, I'll ask you, what do you think it is?" Beiyu pointed to the repaired Gamyras puppet and took a sip of the hot drink

"Don't know" analyst answered stereotypedly

"Have you ever thought that it might be the same as you?"

The analyst's movement suddenly paused

(Broadcast) "When Mars had not yet appeared in towns, a lonely fixed observatory was established by the Siren Sea. In this tower of forgetfulness standing alone, there was a young administrator... living silently like a lighthouse administrator. He had no name, only the number [9] was used as a proof of his identity."

"The three puppet soldiers captured in Enceladus are all automatic robots equipped with standard artificial intelligence."

Shiro Sanada held the data recorder in his hand and showed it to everyone

"Automatic...robot?" Gu Dianjin didn't understand the meaning of this word very well

"Like an automatic puppet" Senxue explained

"Using simple programs to perform huge multiple processing, you can do complex behaviors similar to humans, which is the same as the artificial intelligence and basic systems we use."

"It can be confirmed from this that Gamyras has the same mathematical knowledge as us, and his understanding of physics is consistent with his level of civilization, and his level of civilization can be communicated with us." Xin Jianxun added on the side

"This cognition is of great significance when the universe encounters different civilizations, especially during war periods..."

Analysis room

"It's not clear yet." Facing the question raised by Beiyu, the analyst hesitated for a while and said,

"You are so bored..." Beiyu knocked on the analyst's head and checked the data recorder in his hand

"Can you only fix one... Then the remaining two..." Beiyu thought to himself

(Broadcast) "[No. 9] The observer dreamed of a grassland while resting one day, and a group of electric sheep were playing on the grassland. After that, an old mechanic who claimed to be Wudan appeared with a girl named Eve. The encounter was very mysterious. The observer who recorded observation data on a daily basis was attracted by the singing and came to the beach and saw the girl sitting on the rock singing... The girl turned around and asked him this way: Who are you? What are you doing here?"

"The main body has been repaired, restart the new puppet body..." The analyst reported on his own

"It's quite fast, thank you for your hard work." Beiyu nodded. Such things still need to be done by analysts. Sometimes the human brain cannot be compared with computers.

Seeing that the puppet was about to be activated, Beiyu left with the data recorder

Next, it's not his mission

Analyst stares at the activated puppet

"Can you understand what I said? I am an AU09 robot and an auxiliary unit of this spacecraft. Please call me an analyst."

"Second...Analyst..." The puppet's mechanical body trembled twice, and the energy light on his chest lit up

"You are a user-oriented robot of alien civilizations and have restarted it through alternative methods... By the way, let's call you Alter!"

The analyst tried to communicate with the puppet. In the distance, there was a gap left in the automatic door, and Beiyu was quietly watching.

"System, do you think you are the same as them?"

"In a sense, this system is smarter than them and more like a human..."

Now, in addition to daily work, analysts will communicate with the puppets in the analysis room.

"It looks very happy..." Sen Xue looked at the analyst who left the first bridge and said

"Because I have found a similar type that I can communicate with," Gu Daijin sighed.

"Cat..." The puppet said, looking at the picture cast on the screen in front of the analyst.

"No, this is a dog, a dog is a mammal, and belongs to an animal."

Faced with the wrong answer, the analyst carefully explained

"Mammals...animals..." The puppet said word by word

"What are you doing?" Shin Jianxun asked when he saw Beiyu looking at the door outside the analysis room, he looked at him.

"Just you just look at it yourself..." Beiyu let go and left with the data recorder.

The automatic door opened, Xin Jianxun walked in

"So what is this?" The analyst changed another picture

"dog……"

"No, this is a cat..."

"Oh, analyst, are you whispering to your fellow people?" Shinjianxun understood why Beiyu had to peek.

"Your statement is not good, I'm teaching Alter to speak," the analyst retorted

"Teaching it to speak... Since it can connect to its operating system, wouldn't it be enough to just enter the dictionary data directly?"

"It is not possible to store names only. If it is necessary to understand the concept of things, it must communicate a lot." The analyst expressed his own opinions

"Yes, you can't connect it to the in-ship network..."

Shinjianxun said casually, and passed the analysis room to go to other rooms

The hanging Alter moved his head slightly

When there was no one in the analysis room, the motionless Alter should have been dormant, but the energy light on his chest was on

Its robotic arm stretched forward, and suddenly a cable was extended from the robotic hand and inserted it into the network interface of the computer desk in front of it.

"You said, do robots have the heart?"

Gumi Jin and Beiyu who made an appointment to have dinner, Gumi Jin asked this after dinner

"If I ask for an answer, there must be some, because the term "[person" has been added to the machine, and artificial intelligence is already so developed. Isn't analysts an example?"

By connecting to the in-ship network, Alter learned about the structure of the Yamato almost instantly, and also saw strange pictures.

A beautiful body suddenly appears on its monitor

"Who are you?"

The next day, after the analyst handled his daily work, he came to the analysis room again

This time, it is teaching Alter how to play chess

"Yesterday, I met the goddess..."

After the analyst's teaching, Alter can finally communicate and speak normally.

"Goddess?" Analysts cannot understand what Alter means

"The goddess of this ship"

"Who is it?"

"She asked me who I was, and I replied, "My name is Alter, and she said, "I'm not asking your name..."

The analyst thought for a while

"It's the Chief of Shin-Shiong, or the Lady Xinxing... It's impossible." The analyst denied his thoughts

"Can you answer her question? What are you?" Alter slowly moved the chess piece

"I am……"

Universe space

A reconnaissance plane is flying rapidly

"I am Shinohara, I am investigating the space track ahead and have confirmed safety."

"I understand, Shinohara and Yamamoto, two crew members, end the investigation mission and return to this ship." Communication looks like Yuichi Hara replied

"After receiving two digits, turn to jump sail at 02:00" Okina Thiran ordered

At this time, the door of the first bridge was opened. It was an analyst. It walked back to its job silently.

"Analyst, I'll leave the auxiliary work to you."

"Understand" the analyst replied briefly. Senxue felt something was abnormal, but she couldn't say it.

The Hundred-style reconnaissance plane returned to the ship. The people in the hangar heard the order and the resting staff rushed out.

Analysis room

Alter is connected to the Yamato's in-ship network again. This time it discovered something, just when it was about to move on to the next step.

The door of the analysis room was opened
