Rather than being cute, the artificial intelligence's willful and unconscious behaviors can only be described as creepy, and the cute appearance that Vivi created for her is more or less a fig leaf.

While Lin and Ling were chatting casually to ease her anxious mood caused by waiting, Prometheus came back with three ice creams.

"Hello, my name is Ling." Ling introduced herself to Prometheus first. Lin's sister was buying ice cream, but she was chatting with Lin. She felt a subtle sense of guilt facing Lin's sister.

"My name is Prometheus, this is for you." Prometheus handed an ice cream to Ling with an expressionless face.

"Thank you, thank you." Ling, whose brain was short-circuited, had no idea why Prometheus, who was so far away, would buy her an ice cream.

She just felt that this pair of siblings were not what you would expect from an appearance. Although they looked cold, they were surprisingly kind-hearted.

Then Prometheus stood in front of Lin holding an ice cream.

"..."

"...Stay away from me." Lin realized that this guy was going to make trouble again and immediately warned him.

"Huh? It won't be easy for Brother Lin to eat with his helmet on." Ling looked at the space where Lin's helmet was not stuffed in.

Prometheus nodded in agreement to Ling: "Yes."

“I don’t need ice cream.”

At this moment, Lin truly felt the beauty of Alicia. Although she would act strangely occasionally, she would never disrespect Lin's will. On the contrary, the artificial intelligence that claimed to never betray mankind was now basically going against him. If it had not obeyed Lin's orders in some critical matters and battles, Lin would have suspected that her program had been implanted with a virus.

"Lin is such a headache." Prometheus stuck out his tongue, picked up a small piece of ice cream and put it back into his mouth, staring down at Lin, "As a brother, you are causing trouble to your sister. You are not qualified."

At this moment, Ling began to wonder, with this attitude, are they really siblings?

"What do you want?" Lin asked calmly.

Prometheus showed her fangs directly: "Lin cannot restrict my actions. (You are not allowed to restrict my use of my body)"

"Impossible." How could Lin let Prometheus lead him by the nose? Now that he couldn't touch Prometheus, she was already getting too much. If he continued to indulge her, the efficiency of his assistance would decrease in the future, which would not be worth it.

"Lin should have listened to my advice normally."

"impossible."

"Lin should recognize my human rights status."

"impossible."

After the debate, Prometheus, who received three consecutive denials from Lin, said nothing and just raised the ice cream silently.

"Hey...wait, wait a minute, Prometheus, do you want Brother Lin to eat it by force?" Ling, who didn't understand the conversation between the two, only knew that Prometheus wanted to do something that Lin didn't want to do, so she hurriedly stopped him, "Don't do that, if Brother Lin doesn't want to eat it, forget it."

Prometheus said in her emotionless voice: "Lin, you can't be picky about food. Dr. Mebius said so."

"Ice cream wasn't on the recipe she gave me."

“I’ve modified the recipe.”

"..."

Seeing that Prometheus's rebellious behavior was getting more and more intense, Lin, who was about to stop her, suddenly frowned and looked in one direction. At the same time, Prometheus stopped arguing, and the monitor in his eyes turned to farsighted mode, looking in the same direction.

The commotion started from there.

"Kill, kill!"

The terrifying screams completely set the bustling amusement park in an uproar.

Chapter 22 Suspicion

Are there many murders in this city?

Lin came here twice and two murders occurred, but based on the information Lin checked, the public security in this city is very good.

He didn't get involved in the matter. The police responded faster than Prometheus ate ice cream, so they were no longer needed.

Lin and Prometheus stood aside with Ling, watching the police cars arrive like the wind and set up a cordon.

"Is...something happened?" Ling looked at the passing police officers with some fear.

"..." Lin didn't say anything. He looked at the people who seemed to be disappointed and left, one by one.

Ling's sister came so slowly, which gave him some premonition.

[Lin, this is the surveillance video of the scene]

While Lin was still thinking, Prometheus directly connected to the system in the helmet and sent a video over.

Lin glanced at her and saw that she was eating the ice cream without changing her expression, so he opened the video.

"..."

The body of a middle-aged man lay on the ground, his chest roughly split open, the wound looked like it had been chopped diagonally with a blunt meat cleaver, his internal organs were clearly visible, and his face was hideous before he died.

A girl with long pink hair holding a long knife walked into the camera, raised her head in panic and saw the surveillance camera. She was then seen by passers-by and immediately turned around and ran away, disappearing from the camera.

After Lin finished watching the video in silence, he compared the clearly visible pink-haired French girl and Ling's appearance as well as their identical pink hair in the video, and then turned his attention to Prometheus.

[I can't use the Fire Moth database, so I can't check Ling's sister's information, but by comparing their appearances, the probability that they are sisters is over 90%] Prometheus' eyes flashed a slight red light. She hacked into the surveillance and searched for Ling's sister's location, but she only appeared in the first shot. Then Ling's sister disappeared as if she had evaporated from the amusement park.

"She is not the murderer." Lin said calmly.

Hearing Lin muttering, Ling turned around and asked, "Brother Lin, what did you say?"

"No...wait for us here."

Lin instructed Prometheus to push him to another place where no one was, and then Prometheus said to Lin: "Lin, I have figured out the location of Ling's sister. Do you need to go over there?"

Since the surveillance footage could not be found, Prometheus could reversely infer the approximate location of Ling's sister through the distribution of surveillance footage and the police encirclement. This was not a difficult task for Prometheus.

"No need. Just arrest this person and send him to the police station. Don't worry about the rest."

Lin used the eye manipulator to draw a person in the crowd in the surveillance video.

"Is this the murderer?"

"Well, the murder weapon was in his pocket."

"it is good."

After checking the man's whereabouts and appearance, Prometheus nodded at Lin's judgment.

The wound on the deceased's chest did not match the long knife in the girl's hand, which was suspected to be the murder weapon. Moreover, the fatal wound killed the deceased on the spot and it was impossible for him to crawl under the surveillance camera. The first part of the surveillance camera showed the body rolling under the camera. Most people would not create flaws for themselves, so this was most likely a frame-up.

As for the murderer, it is not difficult to find him. Just screen through several multi-camera videos and then find the most suspicious one. The whole process only takes a few tens of seconds.

This is not the Middle Ages. With the help of technology, the murderer is difficult to catch not because he cannot be found, but because he has already escaped after being found.

"Do we need to clarify to the police that Ling's sister is not the murderer?"

"……Do not."

"why?"

"..."

Lin replayed the detailed movements and knife-holding posture of the pink-haired girl in the surveillance video without saying anything.

He only said that Ling's sister was not the murderer.

……

Half a day passed in the blink of an eye.

"bell!"

As soon as the girl with long pink hair came out of the police station, she hugged her tearful sister and tried to comfort her in a hurry.

"Sister, you scared me to death."

"It's okay. The police arrested the wrong person. The real murderer has been found."

As she said this, the corners of the girl's mouth twitched, and her eyes flashed with sneer at herself.

It turns out that I can really say such hypocritical words to Ling while smiling.

"That's great... Oh, by the way, this is Brother Lin. He was the one who took care of me when my sister was in trouble today." After wiping away her tears, Ling burst into laughter, took her sister's hand and walked to the helmeted man who had been silent behind them.

“Brother Lin…?”

Wheelchair, helmet…what’s wrong with this guy?

The girl was puzzled when she saw the man's attire.

Lin sat in a wheelchair, his sight through his helmet fixed on the knife in the girl's hand.

Model knife.

"Brother Lin, this is my sister, her name is Ying." Ling happily introduced the girl with long pink hair to Lin.

"Hello, thank you for taking care of Ling today. I took her out to play today and such a big thing happened. I'm really sorry to trouble you." Ying bowed slightly to Lin apologetically. He is a disabled person but he helped take care of Ling. He should be thanked. "If you haven't had dinner yet, can I come to my house to entertain you?"

"...What's the knife in your hand?" Lin asked after being silent for a long time.

"I have been training in swordsmanship since I was a child, so I always carry a model knife with me. Maybe this is what caused the policemen to misunderstand." Sakura's fingers stroked the blade of the model knife, without leaving any marks on her slender fingers.

Lin glanced at Ling who was still expecting him to say something, and nodded slowly.

"I just haven't eaten yet, let's go to your house."

"Prometheus, let's go too." Ling shouted excitedly.

"Prometheus?" Ying didn't understand why there were so many names she didn't know in just half a day.

"She's Lin's sister. She's very cute, but a little cold." Ling explained, then turned her head, "Eh? Where's Prometheus?"

"I'm here."

Prometheus came out from a dark corner and responded expressionlessly.

Sakura suddenly felt a chill when she saw her walk out.

It was a feeling that came out of nothing, similar to seeing something discordant.

Was it an illusion? She felt that the girl's movements were filled with an inhuman feeling.

Suppressing the bad feeling, Ying thought it might be caused by her being scared all day, and smiled gently: "Then let's go together."

……

[Someone cleared her of suspicion. I cannot find out the identity of that person. The knife seemed to have been replaced before she was arrested.]

"..."

[Lin, do we need to arrest her? ]

"No, you can't beat her."

Lin shook his head.

"Let's talk about everything later."

Chapter 23: Can You Still Trust Humans?

"Where do Lin and Prometheus live?" Sakura took the time to ask the silent duo while she was chopping vegetables skillfully.

"A suburban villa."

Is he actually a rich man?

Lin looked around the not-so-spacious house and asked, "Are there... two of you living here?"

"Well...our parents left a little early." Ying Qicai's hand paused and she said softly.

"You've been the one who raised Ling?" Lin took a breath and exhaled slowly, "It's amazing."

"Isn't it amazing..."

Ying lowered her head with a gloomy look.

An elder sister should be a role model for her younger sister, but she cannot tell Ling about her real job and let her know that her upright sister is actually a killer with blood on her hands.

Lin watched her movements and expressions, and after watching for a while, he sent a message to Prometheus.

……

At the dinner table, Prometheus used a spoon to feed Lin, who had lifted up some of his helmet to reveal his mouth. Sakura looked at the brother and sister with some curiosity, and felt that the way they got along was a little subtle.

Her brother is paralyzed all over and has a facial disease that she has never heard of that prevents him from being exposed to the outdoors for a long time. Logically speaking, a sister who can accompany such a brother every day should be a gentle person.
