1 From being kidnapped, starting

When X woke up, she was tied to a chair in the office, her viewing angle was fixed in front, and in front were screens hanging all over the wall.

Those screens were no exception, they were also closed, appearing pure black, and she could only use the corner of her eye to look at the reflective screen to examine the surrounding environment.

The metal walls, and the extremely dim lighting, were almost all designed with concise curves as the main industrial production standards, vaguely revealing an icy cold feeling. It's very unnatural, and in addition to being in a completely closed space, this is like a prison cage.

X tried to struggle, twisted her body, to escape from those red lines tied to her, but there was no effect, on the contrary, the wheel of the chair started to work. If she struggled even more fiercely, she was afraid that she would immediately fall to the ground with the chair, bringing her into intimate contact with the cold, icy floor.

She didn't want that...

After realizing this, X stopped struggling and forced herself to calm down, thinking about what the current situation was and why it had become like this.

—— Early this morning, she received notice from L Corporation. She was selected by L Corporation and received the position of Manager.

This is of course a matter worthy of great joy and great celebration, so... why did it become like this?

X recalled, that her mind searched for memories related to today, but she only stopped at the moment when she received the admission notice. Her memories appeared to be broken, she couldn't think of anything, it was like her eyes went dark, and when she woke up, she was here and had become like this.

—— That's not right, she remembered that she was dressed properly and prepared to go to L Corporation ——

—— Because this was her first day in office, she especially went out an hour ahead of time and bought the W train's luxury passenger compartment to avoid being late ——

This is L Corporation, if you lose your job because you're late, wouldn't it be funny? Although X was heartbroken because the train tickets were expensive, after thinking about it, it was all worth it.

L Corporation is one of the Wings of the World. Manager of this position, one day's salary is enough to buy dozens of W train passenger cabins.

This is a job everyone earnestly dreams of, X never thought in her daydreams that she would be accepted by L Corporation to take on this Manager position.

The prerequisite is... This is the truth, not someone plotting it.

—— Is it possible that I was kidnapped into some research facility?

Thinking like this, X couldn't help but start to worry about her tragic fate. Even if it was a safe Nest, there would be some invisible dark things inside. Maybe I have become a test subject for some research department.

She didn't even have the qualifications to call for help... Because her mouth was blocked, those red belts tied her up so that X couldn't make any movements.

Just as she lamented the future and blamed herself for being too naive, X suddenly heard footsteps, the footsteps were extremely clear. It was the solid sound of shoes tapping on the metal floor, getting closer and closer.

... It is near X... But being tied to the chair X could only worry and make oh-oh sounds.

Very quickly, X felt someone pressing her shoulder and then the direction of the chair changed.

She finally turned around and saw what was before her eyes.

It's not scary at all, it can even be said to be very beautiful, compared to X, any person must be beautiful, even though it's considered a 2D character. Looks a bit like a cartoon image?

There was a beautiful head of long light blue hair, tied up in a single ponytail, wearing a secretary's uniform to mimic the tall and thin figure of a woman, standing demurely in front of X. She spoke in a calm yet strange tone, closing her eyes.

[ How are you, may I ask, are you my Christmas present? The red color tied to your body is very suitable for you, it makes you look very adorable.]

[Of course, this is a joke, I hope my words can make you relax a bit, you look extremely worried now.]

When she raised the word 'Worry', there was even a slight change in the woman's calm expression. The corner of her mouth had a slight curve as if X was successfully pleasing her.

She didn't pay attention to X being tied to the chair, she just continued to talk, as if she was performing some kind of role.

[ How are you, X, welcome to Lobotomy Corporation, let me formally introduce you. I'm your secretary, AI-Angela, and it's not like only humans can hold a good name, right? Angela, this name is very pleasant to listen to.]

[My creator came from 'Wings of the World', which means I am the current most outstanding AI.

Well, I know what you're thinking, 'This person in front of me is an artificial intelligence', right?]

The intellectual AI named Angela seemed to be asking X again, but in reality, there was no hope that X would answer because X's mouth was glued. Don't say it's just a sentence, it's very difficult to release a few words in a row, she can only say a few words that have no meaning.

X was forced to look straight at the intelligent AI in front of her and then listened to her mutter, in addition to this intelligent AI that occupied more than half of X's field of vision, there was also a small logo in the corner of X's eyes.

That was the Lobotomy Corporation logo...X didn't know why she saw these things, but she averted her sight no matter how. That logo is like a theme stuck on her retina, it can't escape at all, and it can be seen from anywhere.

Worried, but not clear about what the situation was, the AI's intelligence completely ignored X's movements and continued.

[However, there is still a huge difference between you humans and me. I was born for Lobotomy Corporation, so I can only exist here, I can't go where I want like you.]

[I can open the door for you, I can also prepare coffee for you, but I can't go to the outside building to enjoy the warm sunshine and gentle breeze.]

[As you can see, my hair is like the clear morning sun after the rain, my voice comes from the richness of the world, and my face comes from holding the most beautiful smile in the world. ... Haha, just kidding, in reality, there is no one like that.]

[To attract as many people as possible, I was designed to have this appearance. I hope that my appearance is attractive to you, this at least proves that the designer's price was not in vain.]

[ Well... Looking at your expression, you're probably really surprised by me, but my ability is still behind... Please listen seriously.]

Probably for X to be tied to the chair to be able to see more clearly, the intelligent AI named Angela tried to get closer. Bending down, staring at X's face, allowing herself to practically occupy X's entire gaze.

This time, it was especially clear... Whether it was those beautiful eyelashes, the amber-like eyes sparkled with gold. Also, it looks like a human with smoother, more realistic skin and long, softer hair.

[When handling multiple tasks at the same time, AI is more efficient than humans, and we can handle tasks that require dozens of people to complete at the same time. I believe that many people have lost their jobs because of my existence... That's truly a pity]

[Even though I still have a lot of good points, my introduction has ended here. It's time to take a moment to answer your doubts. Is there anything else you want to know?]

And the words stopped after a few seconds, and no one answered this mumbled intelligent AI.

—— This is obvious because X cannot talk.

[Sorry, I forgot about you being tied up... I'm so sorry, I think these colored silk ribbons are very suitable for you. It's a bit of a waste to take it off, but your expression is very interesting now.]

As soon as the intelligent AI spoke, while untying the red belt that bound X, this cunning AI did not completely undo it. Only one part was removed, but at least X can now speak.

Driven by some kind of desire to survive, X did not get mad. She already understood that the intelligent AI that appeared to her eyes to be respectful was completely indifferent to herself...

If I were to shout towards the intelligent AI in front of me, and even add a few insulting words, perhaps the angry intelligent AI would be directly dealt with.

No... This is not what if... This kind of thing happened(????).

Under X's sight, the small Lobotomy logo was automatically activated in her brain, like a button on some game.

[ Lobotomy Corporation Simulator —— Best Love Simulator ]

Even though the title was like that, there were also light pink girl bubbles rising from the outside of the frame. But the logo is the shape of the brain, the shape is completely dyed red by blood and also has a bright orange border line.

[The simulation has started ——]

[Day 1—— Taking position ]

[On the first day of taking office, for unknown reasons, you were tied to a chair in the office. Fortunately, this just happens to be the Corporation where you will be working, so you weren't late on the first day]

[The first person you meet is Corporation AI. She calls herself your secretary. After a self-introduction, she removes the restraints on you. But at this moment, your emotions suddenly became uncontrollable, your language was fierce, and you spoke rudely towards the Intellectual AI Corporation]

[The intelligent AI patiently listened to all the insults you had towards her, and then, at your request, removed all the restrictions placed on your body. And just when you thought you could run away from here, you were pushed into the corner of the table by AI]

[AI punishes you for speaking rudely, your begging for forgiveness doesn't have any effect]

[You have been punished by AI and have lost your ability to think, and after being punished, you will be deprived of your position as Manager]

[You were kicked out of the door by the Corporation!]

[Achieved achievements —— Leaving the office on the first day ]

[Warm reminder: Even if you are expelled, you will not be able to escape the Corporation. Please try to avoid the ending of being expelled by the Corporation]

[This time the results do not have any rewards and can keep the selection, please try harder]

A few short passages flashed through X's mind, those images that could not be beautiful were very vague, what exactly was the punishment of the AI intelligence... X also didn't remember much, but she felt very bad. If she thought a little more, she would feel cold and shiver.

So X, who had intended to question L Corporation, swallowed all the words that were left in her mouth, but those dissatisfied feelings were also forced to be absorbed.

She sat very honestly in her bound chair, without any struggle, and asked a question about the intelligent AI in front of her with a dignified attitude.

"I want to understand more of you, if possible, Angela."
