《Love and Robots》9. Preparation before departure
Advertisement
While the boys were out doing their own thing, alpha called a meeting of the droids.
None of the robots had any experience raising humans, and as Mugan grew up, they would convene meetings like this from time to time to discuss any problems that might arise during Mugan’s development, search for relevant experience from your own hard disk, common progress, common improvement.
It is their goal to train young Mugan to develop “Morality, intelligence, physique, beauty and labor” in an all-round way. As for why they set this goal, alpha says he has distilled this from the Mugan’s collection of human books.
After recognizing Mugan as their master, keeping their master healthy and happy has become the only task for the robots at this stage. The brain didn’t have anything to teach humans, so they got information from what they had, but the people of this planet had migrated here for the purpose of immigration, and they brought a lot of books with them, the Earth’s version of the human textbook, from Kindergarten to Ph. D.’s, took an hour to input the data into its own “Brain” , with several robots doing their part.
Although the Mugan was a bit ‘stupid’ and didn’t take it well, the robots were patient and wary of him, and it took them 13 years to infuse their Mugan with kindergarten-to-doctoral human textbooks.
At this moment, several robots hand in the examination paper handed in by Mugen Yesterday, is carrying on the final judgment to his result.
The robots have been so successful at blending in! They even simulated the Earth People’s examination system!
If you think about it, it’s hard enough to go to an alien planet and be the only human being on the planet who has to take a test, says Mugan, a psychologist at the University of California, Santa Barbara.

“If I pass this test, the Mugan will graduate, ” Euskadi Ta Askatasuna said, flashing one test after another. Mugan didn’t do well in math, and as his math teacher, ETA was suffering.
“Yes, ” Beytagh’s screen flashed, which was a sign of emotion for Beytagh, who had always been low on emotion.
Head to head, they exchanged Mugan test papers, and the robots were judged by a six fold process that determined the results of the Mugan test.
“I declare that the Mugan can finally graduate from kindergarten, ” Alpha, the head of the family and principal, concluded.
The robots clapped in relief.
In the course of educating the Mugan, they also learned a lot about the common sense of the human race, clapping when excited, as they have learned from books on Earthlings.
Wait a minute --
Did Alpha Say Kindergarten? Didn’t I mention that the Mugan system is learning from kindergarten to Ph. D.’s on Earthman? ! How come this is a kindergarten graduation? ! Alpha, is there something wrong with your program! !!
Robot A, the student’s parent, immediately challenged the principal’s judgment.
“According to the results of my intrusion into the Imperial Ministry of Education’s brainpower in the last few days, the doctoral textbooks of Earthlings are only equivalent to the Imperial Ministry of Education’s kindergarten graduation level. ” In place of Alpha, pi answers A’s question: “And, based on the Mugan’s test scores, the odds of a straight-up promotion to the next level of school are zero. ”
In short, the Kid graduated, got bad grades, didn’t go to school.
This is the most vexing problem for the parents of these robots at the moment. = =////The children have worked very hard, and their grades are still so poor, at this time, according to the notes in the parents’ textbook of the Earth people, it’s time for parents to work their magic () , for example, to take an examination of an art student ~ to add points to the athletes ~ or, for example, to give money to the leadership ~

Above is what normal parents on Earth would think of when they reach this stage. Unfortunately, these parents are a bunch of robots with no common sense, so they came up with the idea: “According to the data obtained by hacking into the Imperial Ministry of Education’s brainpower backstage, candidates from remote planets can be escorted. ” Pi immediately shared the results of his hacking of the Imperial Ministry of Education with his anxious peers.
So, all of the robots’ dimmer screens lit up at the same time: This Is it.
“As the only human being on the planet, the Mugan must comply with this rule, ” Beytagh concluded in a defiant tone.
“But this planet is in the Dead Sea Emperor’s tomb constellation, has not yet been found by any galaxy... ”
“That’s your job. Figure out a way to hack into the Imperial Ministry of Land and Resources of the People’s Republic of China and put the planet into it. ”
“Roger that. ”
“Planet Master, fill in the Mugan. ”
“Roger that. ”
Surrounded by a circle of droids, they hacked the brains of the Imperial Ministry of Education, and then the Ministry of Land and Resources of the People’s Republic of China of the Imperial Ministry, supported by a strong desire to send their children to a prestigious school no matter what, they had no idea what the outside world was going to be like because of their actions, but they were very careful to change the name of the Mugan to an obscure corner, with a glowing screen.
“Done. ” After erasing the last trace of the intrusion, pi cut himself off from the outside world. “My Brain is infected with the virus they put in, and I need some time off. ”
Completed their mission, sent the light screen display disorder state of the screen. He explained to his companions that he was going to turn off his phone.
“You get some rest. We’ll take it from here. ”
We’ll send the Mugan where he belongs.
The wordless faith was passed from one robot to another, then Pai quietly turned off the phone and the rest of the droids began their final preparations for Mugan’s departure.
Although the alphas have not discovered it themselves, they are becoming more and more human, willing to do anything to give the best to their most important child.

The Adventures of Rat Damon
12/20/2021: we're back to work! Rat Damon reflects on his life of adventuring, both before and after meeting Jack Jensen of earth. He recounts many of his experiences, both happy and sad. He regales you with the tales of power found and love lost. This is a side-adventure based on our The Other Guys series. Rat Damon makes an appearance in Heroes of Last Resort but is much more than a simple rat. What I will post here is going to be a lot rougher than Heroes as I am writing and posting as I go along, so my apologies go out to you in advance! However, I will revise as needed as we go along. As writing isn't my full-time gig, the posting of new material here will likely be a bit irregular and as far as what length this book will be, it remains to be seen. This was originally envisioned to be a 30-40k word novella but one never knows where the story will take me. Do not fret, book 2 in the series is well on its way, in fact much farther along than this novel(la?). We will see where Rat Damon takes, I guess! Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoy this as much as I had writing it.
