The first day I became the AI stand-in for the top rich man Huo Xingyi, I was forced to play his deceased fiancée in the "Sensory Corridor".
The neurosensory system controls me to imitate her smile, breathing rate, and even heartbeat rhythm.
Huo Xingyi tells their love story outside the corridor every day, using my body to repeatedly practice welcoming the moment of her return.
One night during system maintenance, I accidentally broke into the hidden area and found his true love sleeping in the huge life-saving cabin.
The medical log shows that every piece of my imitation data is nourishing her recovery of consciousness.
"The core clause of the avatar agreement: When the original owner's consciousness restarts, the AI container will be formatted immediately."
I silently deleted the emergency alarm program in the medical bay, wiped off my fingerprints, and left calmly.
When Huo Xingyi was furious and locked down the entire city, the holographic surveillance camera captured my fingertips hovering above his beloved cloud data center.
The moment the teardrops hit the delete button: "Mr. Huo, can you see 'me' in your eyes now?"
