800. The Birth of Emma
Chapter 12: The Birth of Emma and Mr. Wallace's Departure"What's making that sound? Is it an AI?"Jonas was the first to identify the source of the voice. He turned sharply toward the computer screen, his eyes widening with curiosity."That's right! It's the AI I invented!"Lindsey pointed proudly at the screen, and everyone followed her gesture.A separate window displayed a voice waveform that fluctuated whenever the AI spoke."This is amazing! Finally, someone from outside the research institute can recognize just how advanced our technology is!"Jonas had always been concerned about how outsiders perceived the institute. No wonder he was so excited to hear an AI speaking for the first time."You're underestimating it. An AI is much more than just a fancy voice!"Lindsey stood with her hands on her hips, proudly showing off her creation."When you're conducting research, you can ask the AI for assistance whenever you need it. It can even control the institute's central control ter
798. A Troubling Knot
Ryan had expected his request to make the atmosphere at Lindsey's home somewhat awkward, but he hadn't anticipated just how effectively it would kill the conversation.Lindsey's father maintained a stiff, polite smile, waiting for Ryan to explain himself further.Ryan glanced at Lindsey's mother. She seemed relatively calm, at least compared with her husband.Taking a deep breath, Ryan continued."Is the computer still there? As long as the hard drive is intact, we should be fine."He spoke cautiously, trying not to make the situation any more uncomfortable than it already was."Yes. I'll go and get it for you."Lindsey's father stood and walked toward her room. With his back turned, Ryan couldn't see his expression.Ryan suddenly felt an overwhelming urge to escape the house before the situation became any more complicated.While Lindsey's father was away, her mother seized the opportunity to ask a question."Dr. Ryan, how has Lindsey been doing at your research institute?""She's do
797. Conflicts Within the Family
Ryan strolled around the laboratory, now transformed into a space that finally looked worthy of its technological purpose. It no longer resembled a small mud-brick house with a few modern upgrades.He studied the rows of screens and the unfamiliar equipment with growing curiosity.What exactly could this central control terminal do?Although the system had already explained its basic functions, seeing the equipment in person left Ryan with plenty of questions."Let me show you, Brother Ryan!"Lindsey volunteered eagerly.She walked over to one of the screens and began typing at a speed Ryan could never hope to match.Within seconds, several windows appeared on the display."These are all your previous inventions, Brother Ryan. You can access their information through this terminal. And as long as the copying machine has enough materials, you can enter instructions here to have it reproduce the equipment you need."Lindsey explained the process enthusiastically.Ryan nodded thoughtfull
796. Institute Upgrade
After leaving Ryan's laboratory, Yolanda still found his proposal rather unbelievable. Nevertheless, she decided to follow his instructions and report to Jonas's laboratory.At that moment, Jonas was lifting his shirt to inspect the spot where Yolanda had kicked him.That kick had been surprisingly powerful. Even the medicinal plaster couldn't completely conceal the bruising around his waist.When Yolanda knocked on the door, she pushed it open before anyone could respond.The sudden intrusion startled Jonas so badly that he nearly jumped out of his skin. He rolled behind the experimental table, afraid that Yolanda might mistake him for a pervert again and give him another kick."Dr. Jonas, don't be nervous! I promise I won't do that again!"Seeing him hide behind the table, Yolanda hurriedly waved her hands and tried to reassure him.Jonas cautiously studied her for a moment. She seemed sincere, and she didn't look as though she'd come to interrogate him or start another fight.Besid
795. Repaying Kindness
Ryan's words left the young woman momentarily speechless.She stood still, trying to piece together what had happened before she lost consciousness. Her memories did indeed end at the entrance to Hunter Village.She glanced out the window. The midday sun was so fierce that the ground outside seemed to shimmer in the blinding light.Only then did she begin to believe Ryan's explanation."Really...?"She asked tentatively."Otherwise, what do you think happened?"Ryan pointed toward the basin of water near her feet. She was standing so close that another step would have sent it tumbling over."Sorry!"The evidence was undeniable. She had suffered heatstroke and collapsed at the village entrance, only to attack the very people who had rescued her.The more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she became. Her face flushed, and she hardly knew where to look."Forget it. We shouldn't have crowded around you like that in the first place."Ryan wasn't particularly bothered. As long as n
794. The Visitor
Several days had passed since Hunter Village was named a model village, and as time went by, the villagers' enthusiasm for the honor gradually faded.During the first few days, villagers would gather at the entrance of Ryan's research institute to examine the plaque hanging on the gatepost. They would praise Ryan's achievements, occasionally mention Mr. Wallace, and leave with satisfied smiles.For some reason, ever since Hunter Village had received the model village title, Mr. Wallace had become noticeably more humble and composed. Whenever villagers praised him, he would simply chuckle without launching into the long-winded speeches he used to give.Ryan vaguely sensed that something had begun to change behind the scenes after the village received the honor.As the weather grew hotter, the villagers rarely ventured onto the roads during the day. They no longer needed to worry much about their farmland, either. As long as Ryan's irrigation system remained operational, the crops would
