"After the old man sent Eve onto the boat, the observer wanted to see her again; he knew the feeling of loneliness for the first time since he was born; he made up his mind to meet Eve again, and he thought that this was the only way to understand who he was."

The closed analysis room is only Alter stored in the container.

Alter, who had been turned off, now the energy light on his chest is on

It turned its head and through the monitor, it saw the body parts of other puppets contained in another container.

It slowly stretched out its hand

"Target, function restart"

"It's hooked..." Beiyu, who was sitting at the desk, suddenly heard the system's report and smiled.

"Sorry, I still have something to do, so I'll leave first!"

He picked up his laptop and walked out of the technical department

"Wait, your job is still...!"

"Sorry, I will make up for it immediately when I come back after I finish the work. See you later!"

Just now, Beiyu did not turn off Alter, but let it go to sleep. Alter can be restarted by itself.

...

"Sana Deputy Captain Sanada, through communicating with Alter, I learned something..." Analysts and Shiro Sanada walked side by side inside the ship

"Hmm? What's the matter?"

“They are the same as me”

"Yeah……"

"Alter once asked who I am"

"What about your answer?"

"friend"

Shiro Sanada was surprised to hear the analyst's answer

"Friend, what a good answer"

at the same time

The closed door of the analysis room was opened, of course, not usually opened by means of normal means, and the alarm sounded

"Where is the goddess......"

Alter was walking tremblingly. Originally, this leg was already broken, so it was a blessing to be able to walk.

Alter broke the elevator door again and jumped down the elevator shaft.

"The lock in the analysis room was destroyed!" Senxue reported

It can be seen that the containers that house Alter and the containers that house other components on both sides were violently destroyed. It must have been made by Alter.

"It's that puppet soldier!" Shima Daisuke immediately thought of it.

"Let the security department go quickly" Okina Shisan ordered

The security department received the notice as soon as possible, fully armed, rushed to Alter's location with a gun.

"Judge the situation yourself and allow weapons!" The head of the security department Ito shouted.

The security department left in a hurry, and behind them, someone walked out of the shadow

"Ahhh, is it so fast? I just arrived..." Beiyu slutted helplessly.

Beiyu's purpose of this trip was to get Alter, but with his own ability, it was difficult to capture Alter.

So he thought of using the power of the security department

Because the security department also went back to chase Alter, as long as he followed these people secretly, he would definitely find Alter

Thinking of this, he followed

"In the ship, enter the first security state, repeat it, inside the ship, enter the first security state, the captured puppet soldiers have escaped from the analysis room, and the target is currently lurking in the ship, and the security department members are ordered to capture it or destroy it directly."

The crew members were puzzled, but they followed the instructions and returned to their respective posts to stand by

Alter stumbled forward. According to the invasion of the Yamato internal network just now, it saw the detailed distribution map inside the ship and also knew why its target was.

"Stop! Stand me well!"

Two security members found Alter and both raised their guns

Alter knew the danger of the gun through the monitor as soon as possible. The light on his chest suddenly turned red, turned his head and walked backwards.

"I found the target and was fleeing to the third deck of the left string!" The security department member reported

"Alter has always wanted to know who he is. He must be thinking that as long as he sees the goddess, he will know the answer..."

The analyst thought of his previous conversation with Alter and told Shiro Sanada to listen to his analysis.

"Goddess?" Shiro Sanada was very confused by the word

"Alter said she was the goddess of this ship. I also learned an important piece of information related to the puppet soldiers..."

"Sen, where is the puppet soldier going?"

"It is fleeing to the bow of the ship through the ventilation duct on the second deck."

...

"The door that has not been opened for a long time is there," asked Shin-ming Tou, a member of the security department.

"There is an automatic navigation device that guides us to Iskandar. Is it the target of that..."

Ito secretly scolded himself that if the automatic navigation room was destroyed, then his plan would have to...

"Finally found!"

I saw a figure suddenly landing at the ventilation duct entrance in front of me. It was Alter

"You can't let this guy succeed, it's okay to destroy it!"

Everyone in the security department began to shoot at the Alter in front. Alter could not dodge as much as being shot by a bullet, but still ran forward.

"The enemy... is afraid... exist... goddess!" Alter repeated these terms in his mouth and broke into the room ahead.

"Damn..." Ito cursed, directing everyone to warn him while warning him

"How is it? Can it be opened?"

"No, the door is locked!"

"Bridge, open this door"

"This is the bridge. The puppet has invaded the security system and the door is locked from inside! It will take us a certain time to unlock the lock!"

Ito wished to explode this door, but it was the second turret equipment room, and there were live ammunition inside. If it was not detonated, it would undergo a chain explosion reaction, which would cause greater damage to the Yamato.

"Please wait!"

It was an analyst, and Shiro Sanada came with him, because the analyst said it had a way.

"It's coming just right, AU09, open the door" Ito said in a tone of giving orders

"Please put away the gun before this."

"What did you say?" Ito thought this was funny

"I don't want it to think we are enemies"

"What stupid things are you saying, we are enemies!" Ito retorted loudly

"Do you want to kill the unresisting prisoner?"

When he heard the movement, he rushed over.

"Prisoner? Stop talking stupidly, it's just a machine!"

"As long as it has the heart, even a machine must be treated as a prisoner."

"Heart? Does that guy have the heart?"

Ito feels that there seems to be something wrong with the crew's mind today

"Indeed, the puppet is an automatic robot that acts through the accumulation of countless programs..."

"That's right, robots are still robots." Ito finally felt that there was someone who could understand him.

"However, we cannot yet assert that our brain, like it, is an automatic device formed by multiple distributions and multiple processing."

Shiro Sanada said, it was unexpected that robots may be the same as humans, and they have processing mechanisms similar to brains, so they can think.

"You seem to think that in their processing systems, the same consciousness as us cannot arise... but in fact, we cannot prove this."

“What an interesting remark”

Suddenly, the atmosphere became tense and everyone became silent

"The security system has been lifted," the analyst suddenly said, breaking the silence
