It is quiet at night. There is a thief lurking near Dr. F's research institute.
So far, Dr. F has invented a series of drugs with excellent performance. According to the latest news, he is about to complete the development of a new drug.
The thief decided to steal the technical documents of this drug as soon as possible and sell it to others for profiteering.
He held his breath and peeped through the window, only to find that the doctor was preparing medicine alone. The doctor's eyes are fixed and absorbed, so the thief doesn't have to worry about being found at all.
After a while, the doctor made several finished products, which were green liquids. He scooped a little into his mouth and tasted it carefully, slurping:
"Ah, it smells good ..."
The doctor stretched out his arms, had a long stretch, and then chattered to himself.
"Hey, finally succeeded. Over the years, although I have developed a series of new drugs, none of them can surpass the current drugs. In my opinion, this is really a great invention in the world. Yes, the first thing I have to do now is to record this preparation method. "
The doctor took out a pen and paper and wrote quickly. When finished, he carefully put it in a big safe in the corner and left the institute.
Outside the window, the impatient thief took action as soon as he saw the doctor leave. He gently pried open the window, sneaked into the room, then walked to the safe and turned the dial with familiarity. In his hand, the safe was easily opened. The thief took out the technical documents, put them in his arms and quietly escaped from heaven in the dark night.
"Great, you can make a lot of money! I saw the doctor put the medicine in his mouth with my own eyes, which proved that it was harmless to the human body, and I also heard the doctor say that it was a great invention in the world. But what does it do? ……"
It's just that it's still a mystery. I wonder what happened to the doctor after eating it. Now I have neither time nor way to investigate, so I can't call directly to ask. However, as long as it is a drug invented by Dr. F, it must have a miraculous effect, which has been proved by countless facts.
The thief who returned to his hiding place decided to make it himself according to the method written by the doctor. This is because without it, we can't know its effectiveness. You can't explain it to the buyer. He managed to get the raw materials, bought a flask and beaker, and it took him several days to finally make this medicine.
The thief picked up the medicine that smelled like lily of the valley and gulped it down. The medicine ran down his throat, which made him feel cool and sweet. He sat quietly in the chair, waiting for the start of medicine supply.
Suddenly, the thief stood up. He hurried out of the room and walked to Dr. F's research institute without looking back.
"Doctor, I have done something sorry for you. A few days ago, I stole your technical documents from the safe here. Please give me to the police. "
The thief said this to the doctor who came forward.
"Did you really take it?"
"yes. I made this medicine according to your writing method and drank it. Now that I have realized that I have done something bad, I have come to ask your forgiveness and return the stolen documents to you. "
The thief burst into tears and confessed to the doctor with a heavy heart. But instead of getting angry, Dr. F burst out laughing.
"Where, where. You know, this is an invention in my work. This new medicine has the function of making people's conscience discover. However, since no bad people are willing to take this medicine voluntarily to do experiments, I am worried. It's okay now. Thanks to your help, it has proved its efficacy. Thank you very much. "

Doctors and robots

Dr f often travels from one planet to another by spaceship. He's not just touring around. His main purpose is to land on a planet with backward civilization as soon as he sees it, and give guidance to people on this planet in many ways.
Think about it carefully, this workload is huge. But because the doctor carried a homemade robot with him, he made some achievements on many planets. This is a large robot. It doesn't look beautiful, but it's strong and capable. Moreover, it knows the general truth and can speak it quite well.
"Hey, let's go to the planet this time. I have seen it through the telescope. It seems that the residents there need our help for another second. "
The doctor pointed out the window and said. The driving robot faithfully replied as usual:
"Yes, yes!"
The spaceship landed on that planet. Life here is extremely primitive. Residents wear animal skins and live in caves, just like in ancient times on earth.
Almost everywhere, great efforts must be made to win the friendly trust of residents. At first, the primitive residents always threw stones at them. However, robots don't care. Fortunately, the doctor is hiding behind, safe and sound. It didn't take long for the other party to understand that they were not hostile. When we have to understand their language a little, the work will go smoothly.
The doctor ordered the robot to sow seeds in the cultivated land and make a demonstration of farming. He also asked it to install a waterwheel in the river and introduce its use. All these are simple things for robots; However, the original residents were dumbfounded and really happy.
In addition, doctors asked robots to teach primitive residents many methods, such as catching wild animals, building houses, storing food and preventing diseases and pests. The robot's head is full of all kinds of knowledge and can do anything.
Dr. f's point of view is to consider what order to issue next; Then it is often to add water to the robot to replenish energy and clean the appearance.
So it's been a long time. Thanks to the hard work of robots, the lives of primitive residents have been greatly improved. Residents no longer quarrel, know how to learn and can preach to each other. Seeing this, the doctor said, "It seems that civilization is developing smoothly here. Future cooperation depends on them. Soon, we will leave here and look for other planets. "
"Yes, that's it."
The robot replied. They have started new travel preparations.
On the day of departure, the residents who heard the news thanked them in unison: "Thanks to your help, our life has undergone earth-shaking changes. We will deeply remember your kindness. In order to never forget this feeling of gratitude, we specially made a monument. Please come to you at once. "
The doctor said happily, "Your gratitude shows that our work here has not been in vain." At that time, we will go happily. "
With the enthusiasm of residents, doctors and robots went together. On the high mountain, they saw a huge stone statue. The stone statue is obviously elaborate, covered with flowers and beautifully decorated, but it is not a portrait of a doctor, but a robot's. It seems that residents respect robots.

Problem equipment

Author: translated by hoshi shinichi Li Youkuan.
A very serious atmosphere hung over the court. As soon as the prescribed time arrived, the dignified judge came to the court and stood up at once. No one dares to make a sound. The judge announced the trial.
A middle-aged man stood in the dock. There was a clear expression of grievance on his face. He kept shaking his body slightly, wringing his hands anxiously, his mouth twitching violently, and his eyes were very dull and dry. I don't know whether he is very dissatisfied and angry with this trial, or whether he is born with such an eccentric personality.
The prosecutor began to sue: "The defendant did make a terrible device. If we don't interfere with this and let it drift, it is likely to fundamentally subvert the whole social order, thus causing unprecedented chaos. In order to prevent similar incidents from happening again in the future, we must severely punish them. It can be said that this is an extremely dangerous case that has never been seen in the history of trial ... "
The prosecutor breathed a sigh of relief and continued to read solemnly: "... there is a man of unknown origin alone in the basement, secretly developing some strange devices." After receiving this call from a citizen, the police station immediately sent a police car to the scene for the sake of prudence. In this way, things were discovered. As a result, the person concerned was immediately arrested and his equipment was confiscated. Although this device has not caused any substantial harm to society, there is no doubt that it is a terrible terrorist act. In the face of hard facts, we have to come to such a conclusion.
The faulty equipment was transferred to the court as physical evidence. It looks like a big safe, its shell is shiny with silver metal, and many buttons and small indicator lights are arranged neatly. There is also a slender slot, which seems to be specially used for card input and output. In a word, this device gives people an extremely exquisite impression.
The defendant couldn't restrain his excitement, even his voice was out of tune.
"This is my business! It cost a lot of money, and after years of painstaking research, it was finally made successfully. Those damn policemen dare to take them away by force in broad daylight. What police, like robbers ... "
The judge looked serious and stopped the defendant from speaking without permission: "This is a court. Don't talk nonsense! In addition, the defendant is not allowed to break the rules in court. If you have something to say, you can entrust a lawyer to appeal on your behalf. "
A lawyer comforted the defendant and said, "I understand your anger, but shouting can't solve the problem, but it will make things worse." Only I am your defender. I hope you can understand this. Other lawyers are very embarrassed about this case and are unwilling to defend in court. In this case, I appear in court to defend you out of sympathy ... "
The lawyer talked endlessly for a long time and finally persuaded the defendant. The judge glanced at the silent defendant and said slowly, "According to the defendant, this device is of great benefit to society without any danger or harm. To this end, it was suggested that the defendant must explain this clearly on the spot ... "
The lawyer only felt that he had been pushed behind by the defendant, so he added further: "... if the performance of this equipment is known, it will certainly be widely supported." I asked the judge to call experts and scholars from relevant parties to the court to identify this device. "
But the prosecutor objected to this.
"This can't do. If this is done, the news about this terrible device will spread to the society. I ask the judge to reject the application for authentication of this device. And asked not to hear the case in public. It's not that I personally like not to hear the case in public, but that the situation is special and I have to. For example, suppose a person invents an extremely simple and powerful new weapon. Should this weapon be made public to the whole world? Needless to say, of course not. The same is true in this case. "
So the judge said, "I approve the request made by the prosecutor." The case will be heard in secret. "
Several staff members in the court immediately drove all the spectators out and closed the door.
Seeing this, the defendant cried again, "How outrageous! Secret trials are absurd and illegal, just like the dark ages of the Middle Ages! Is this still allowed in modern society? I strongly protest against this! So many lawyers and you ignored the law and let the judge make such an absurd decision. As far as I know, the entrusted lawyer has the obligation to try his best to defend the defendant. Please think of a good way for me! "
"However, the judge has made a decision. This is inviolable. If you are desperate and unreasonable, it is not good for you. "
The lawyer's face showed a very embarrassed expression, as if he had lost interest in it. However, the defendant was furious and furious. He grabbed the lawyer's neck with one hand and waved vigorously with the other. The court staff had a hard time pulling him back and making him tell the truth. But the defendant kept shouting: "you heartless guys, how dare you unite to frame me!" The whole society is in chaos, everything is in chaos! A bunch of guys here are all crazy ... "
The court staff quickly blocked the defendant's mouth with a towel and finally calmed him down. A lawyer took a document from his wallet and submitted it to the judge. At the same time, he said, "Judging from the defendant's behavior just now, the defendant is insane. The defendant insisted that judges, prosecutors, court staff and even all lawyers were insane. Obviously, there can be no other explanation except that the defendant has a brain problem. This is a psychoanalytic appraisal written by the doctor. The defendant is a paranoid patient with a serious illness. In view of this, I request that the defendant be exempted from criminal punishment. "
The judge read out the verdict.
"Because the defendant was insane, he was exempted from punishment. The court decided to send the defendant to a designated hospital and not to appear in the society until he recovered. At the same time, the faulty equipment was immediately confiscated and the court was responsible for the destruction. Never let people in society know that there is such a terrible device. This is the sacred duty of our judicial department. "
However, the defendant began to make a scene again.
"Hang it all! Why do you think I'm crazy? ! This is your absurd conclusion made unilaterally regardless of the facts ... "
But the lawyer comforted the defendant: "Forget it, don't force it. The most important thing now is to have a philosophy and an open mind. You know, the judgment has been read, and according to court practice, the defendant must obey the judgment ... "
So, the trial is over.
There is a middle-aged man in a mental hospital who is always complaining.
"What an unreasonable thing it is! The whole society has fallen into incredible madness. "
A patient in the same ward accosted him and said, "Of course! Otherwise, how could we be sent to this hellhole? Hey, what did you do? "
"I invented a wonderful device. This is a new type of electronic computer. No matter how complicated the case is, it can be tried accurately in a few seconds, and the judgment can be written in plain language in the blink of an eye. If this equipment is popularized, it will greatly improve the efficiency of criminal proceedings and minimize the taxes that citizens have to pay. What prosecutors, judges, lawyers and so on all need not, can change careers ... "
The patient in the same ward nodded and said, "No way.
If this device is successfully trial-produced, all the gentlemen who eat legal food in the judicial department will lose their jobs. They will drag their children and girls to beg in the street. In order to safeguard their own interests, of course, it is necessary for Qixin Qi Xin to work together to send you to this isolated place! "
"Do as you say, there is some truth, maybe it is such a thing. But why were you sent to this hospital? "
"It can be said that you and I are in the same boat! After long-term research, I have created a new treatment method, which can find people who are going to do bad things through pre-diagnosis, and can perform brain surgery on bad people to turn them into upright good people. Just as I was about to make this new treatment public, I was suddenly arrested. After the trial, I was sent without saying anything. If there are no bad people in society, legal experts in the judicial department will not be able to keep their jobs! "
-Neither of them has any hope of leaving here.
The capricious robot

Author: hoshi shinichi
"This is the best robot I have ever made. It can do anything. For people, I am afraid there is nothing more ideal than it! " The doctor explained proudly.
A rich man, Mr. n, said:
"Please sell it to me! To tell you the truth, I'm going to stay alone in a villa on an isolated island for a while. I just want to use it there. "
"Then sell it to you, it will be useful!" The doctor nodded his head.
Mr. n paid a large sum of money, so the robot bought it.
Yes, Mr. n went to the villa on the island. The boat that picked him up won't come for a month.
"With robots, I can have a comfortable holiday. Not only do you not have to read letters and documents, but you can't even make phone calls. How about a cigarette first? "
As soon as Mr. N muttered something, the robot immediately took out his cigarette and lit a fire for him.
"Sure enough, have two down son. But I'm hungry! "
"Yes, I see!" Robots should follow.
After a while, it cooked the food and brought it up. Mr. n, who sent the food to his mouth, said contentedly:
"Really good, really an excellent robot!"
Robots can not only cook, but also clean rooms and even repair old clocks and watches. Besides these, it can tell many wonderful and interesting stories to its owners one after another. What a perfect servant. In this way, it seems that Mr. N began to live a happy life.
However, after two days, the situation is a little different. Suddenly, the robot stopped moving. Even if it's louder, knocking on the head won't help. Ask it why, and don't say a word.
"Oh, something seems to be wrong!"
Mr. n has no choice but to cook by himself. But after a while, the robot obediently began to work as usual.
"Sometimes, I can't help but let it rest!"
It seems that things are not what Mr. n thinks. The next day, the robot wiped half the glass and slipped away. Mr. n hurried to catch up, but he couldn't catch up. Mr. n thought for a long time, and finally dug many traps, and finally caught the robot back in this way. Ordering it to take another look, it seems to have forgotten the nonsense just now and started working hard again.
"It's really puzzling!"
Mr. n felt very strange and thought for a while. But this is an island. You can't ask a doctor. Robots don't know why they always make trouble every day. Once, it suddenly made a scene like crazy, waving its arms and chasing after it desperately. It's Mr. n's turn to escape this time. Sweating, he kept running, and finally climbed a tree to hide, safe and sound. In a few days, the robot will return to normal.
"This is not want to play hide and seek? No, there must be something wrong with some part of the body. I bought a robot with abnormal nerves! "
In this way, a month passed. Mr. n got on the boat to meet him and then went back to the city. The first thing he did was to go to the doctor and complain:
"What a disaster! That robot goes wrong almost every day and goes crazy! "
However, the doctor calmly replied:
"That's good!"
"Good what ah! Give me back the money I paid! "
"Please listen to my explanation. Needless to say, the robot I made is neither wrong nor crazy. However, if you stay with it for a month and become too fat or stupid because of lack of exercise, it will be in trouble! Therefore, it is good for people to have so many activities! "
"Is this the way it is?" Mr. n seemed to understand, and muttered a little discontentedly.
