Chapter 887: Alita's Fate
Alvin looked up and ordered Jarvis to remove the decoration from the cockpit, then squinted at the children, thought for a moment, and said, "I'm sure you won't do anything bad, but you have to let me know what you've done?"
I'll be on your side no matter what happens, but that doesn't mean I'm going to watch you do stupid things! ”
Richard stood beside Nick with a strange expression, ready to face it with his brother no matter what happened.
Mindy glanced at Nick's side face, the usual hippie-smiling bastard looking very nervous in the face of Alvin's pressure.
The little girl gritted her teeth and muttered something, and finally chose to stand by Nick's side.
Little Ginny in Alvin's arms struggled to jump to the ground, trotted to Nick's side, put her arm around him, and made a cute face at her daddy.
Facing the little ones who seemed to suddenly have the same hatred, Alvin shook his head helplessly and said, "Tell me what happened?" Otherwise, I can't help you!
There's always a reason for what you've done, and I trust you, but you have to tell me what's going on? ”
Nick poked his head out of the cockpit window, and then he was a little moved to tapped Richard's arm, who was obviously unaware.
Glancing at Mindy, who was also confused, Nick hesitated, looked at Alvin and said, "Can I tell you what happened in a moment?" ”
Alvin glanced back at the direction of the yacht and recalled what little Ginny had just said, "Dr. Elaine shook Alita away", he shook his head and sighed and said, "There are still a few hours to get to the high seas, but that doesn't make sense, we can turn around at any time." ”
Saying that, Alvin raised his head and said in a deep voice: "Jarvis, don't let a bunch of children take the blame for you, no matter what is here, it is not something they can bring in." ”
Just as Jarvis sighed humanly and was about to speak, an iron plate under the navigation table was pushed away, and Alita leaned out of it.
Alvin frowned and watched Alita crawl out of the small space in a very awkward position, hugged Nick and little Ginny with a sad expression, and then walked in front of Alvin with his head down like a little lamb to be slaughtered, quietly waiting for the "judgment" from the adults!
Faced with this strange atmosphere, Alvin looked up at Jarvis a little irritated and said, "Don't let me look down on you, tell me what the hell is going on?"
How did Alita get on this ship? ”
Facing Alvin, who was a little irritable, Nick stood up very responsibly and took Alita's hand and dragged her behind him, and then the kid looked at Alvin bravely and said, "This is my idea, Jarvis just helped." ”
Saying that, Nick glanced back at Alita, who was depressed, and said, "That crazy dr. named Elaine wants to resurrect her daughter, and she has a crush on Alita's body.
That madman had never thought about Alita's feelings, and I would never let her get away with it. ”
Alvin looked at Nick with a frown and asked, "How do you know, I have the impression that Dr. Ed has been treating Alita as his daughter, and I don't believe he would have someone tear down his daughter." ”
Nick glanced at the ceiling, hesitated for a moment, and said, "It was Jarvis who told me......"
As he spoke, a silver nano-band of light appeared on Nick's nanoprosthetic leg and climbed up his head along his body, forming a headphone-like intercom at the ear.
Alvin looked at Nick in admiration, it had only been a long time, and this kid had obviously developed many functions of nanoprosthetics.
If it weren't for Stark's deliberate safety lock, it wouldn't have been surprising that Alvin would be able to fly now.
Nick cautiously observed Alvin's face and said cautiously, "Jarvis called me and said that Dr. Elaine was going to set out to resurrect her daughter who died in a car accident.
She wants Alita's body......
That Dr. Ed, who is Alita's father, was on a business trip at this time......"
Alvin glanced at the sad Alita and said helplessly, "So you planned to run away from home?"
Why don't you tell me in advance......"
Nick hesitated, looked at Alvin's expression, and said cautiously, "We all know you don't like robots......
But Alita is really not a robot......"
Alvin watched as Nick showed unprecedented responsibility, and the kid had everything planned, and he teamed up with Jarvis to steal Alita from Stark Tower and hide it in the cockpit.
There's a reason why Jarvis was so attentive to cover Alita, what pirate ship decorations, what help with the photos, and why Nick didn't care about the scene.
Alvin looked at the heavy expressions of the little ones, shook his head and smiled wryly, took out the phone, found Dr. Ed's number, and dialed it.
Nick stepped forward nervously, but Alvin glared at him and stepped back, he said to Alvin very unwillingly: "I will never let that crazy woman succeed......"
As Nick's mood swings, the surface of the nanoprosthetic leg floats like waves, which makes Alvin wonder if Stark's safety lock is as effective as he boasts.
"I'm going to talk to Dr. Ed anyway, but I promise that if things are the way you say, I'll be on your side."
Alvin took the phone and leaned against the metal table that had been restored to his true colors, until a tired male voice came from the phone, "This is Id......"
Alvin said straight to the phone: "I'm Alvin, and Alita is here."
I heard that Dr. Elaine ......"
Before Alvin could finish speaking, Dr. Ed on the other end of the phone quickly said, "Alita is very good with you, please help me take care of her, she and Nick should be friends......"
Alvin didn't know if it was a delusion, but Dr. Ed didn't seem surprised that Alita was here, and he was a little relieved.
"Dr. Elaine wants Alita's body, you know?"
Dr. Ide on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time, his tone contained guilt and helplessness, and said, "Yes, Elaine has found the key to resurrecting her daughter, but she needs extremely accurate nanomaterials to make her body.
The materials have been used up by Mr. Stark......"
At this point, Alvin was impatient, and he said in a deep voice: "So you gave up on your 'daughter'?"
You treat her like a toy just to satisfy your perverted lover plot?
What is the fatherly love you have shown before? A show for self-gratification? ”
Dr. Ide on the other end of the line said in pain and despair, "What can I do?" That's my daughter, the real daughter?
I've always been in favor of Elaine's approach, but she had to do it, and he showed me the 'key' and she could really make it......
I didn't know what to do, I deliberately let Alita hear my conversation with Elaine, I hope she can run away......"
Before Alvin could speak, Nick exclaimed excitedly: "Alita doesn't want to run at all, she loves you, and she's ready to hand over her body......
You bastard never thought about Alita's feelings, you're a bitch-raised bastard......"
Alvin didn't have the heart to care about how Nick heard Dr. Ed's voice and the fucking swear words on the other end of the phone, he glared at Nick and motioned for him to shut up, and then said into the phone, "Dr. Ed, you helped me a lot, you made Nick walk and run like a normal person."
But you've made the wrong choice now......"
Dr. Ed on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, and said bitterly, "I don't know, I don't know what I should do?"
I wanted my daughter to come back alive and I thought I did, but Elaine told me there were better options......"
Alvin could clearly feel the contradiction and pain in his heart from the phone, this is a man with a lot of feelings and a weak character.
When faced with a choice, he chose to escape.
He misses his daughter, but in the face of "temptation", he deliberately lets Alita hear the bad news and wants to prompt her to escape.
If you want to say that he doesn't care about Alita at all, you're talking nonsense, but in the face of his own daughter, he hesitates.
He chose to leave after leaking the information, if Alita was caught by Dr. Elaine instead of running away...... That outcome may be what he wants.
Alvin couldn't say how he felt about this Dr. Ed now, he was about to drive himself crazy, and it was cruel to have a weak and emotional person face such a choice.
Glancing at Alita who was crying bitterly, Alvin didn't know where a robot got so many tears, he shook his head helplessly, and said into the phone: "Alita is here with me, we all know that she has a soul, this is what you have repeatedly confirmed with me."
Kill a souled being to save a dead child......
I can't accept it, I can't accept it ever......"
Alvin hesitated for a moment, and finally said into the phone: "Maybe you can try other materials......
Dr. Ed on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time, and finally said as if relieved: "Thank you!" Please take care of Alita, I don't deserve to be a father anymore! ”
Alvin hung up the phone expressionlessly, and then looked at Nick, who had a somewhat stubborn expression, he suddenly smiled, stretched out his fist and touched him, and said, "Well done, maybe I should be proud of you!" ”
Saying that, Alvin glanced at little Ginny, who was standing next to Nick with a small chest and pouting, and said with a smile: "You too, but remember to tell Dad in advance in the future, I will definitely help you." ”
Little Ginny couldn't hold back the praise in the face of the praise, she took Alvin's hand with a smile and said, "Then you are not allowed to send Alita back, Alita is a friend, I must help a friend!" ”
Alvin nodded solemnly and said, "I promise, I'll call old Kent and he can expand our house a little back."
Alita needed a room ......"
Saying that, Alvin looked at the sad Alita, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Your experience is sympathetic, but if you live in Hell's Kitchen for a long time, you will know that there are too many people in the world who have experienced more tragedy than you.
It's a bit silly to persuade people to look forward, but there's no other way to do it......"
Nick couldn't stand Alita's depression, he finally persuaded Alita to run away from home, how could he be so sad to watch her.
Nick stepped forward and took Alita's hand, tilted his head to look at Alita's face towards the ground, and said, "Don't think so much, we are free, and anyone who wants to harm us is an enemy."
Don't be upset, you need to recharge now, then let's go fishing, I'm aiming for a great white shark......"
As Nick spoke, a wire poked out of his nanoprosthetic and stuck it into Alita's calf, and the reactor inside the nanoprosthetic began to pump energy to Alita.
Looking at Alita's surprised gaze, Nick raised his eyebrows proudly and said with a smile: "We can't choose our own parents, but we can choose a suitable boss......
Be happy, we're going to be on this boat for two months......"
Little Ginny, as Nick's best supporter, also took Alita's hand and bared her teeth and shouted: "We will protect you, my father promised me, he will eat all those who bully you, roar ......"
Seeing a few children gather around Alita to comfort her in a mess, Alvin shook his head helplessly, and then looked up at the ceiling, ready to see if the very abnormal Jarvis would give him an explanation.
Maybe it was Alvin's pressure, maybe it was because things had come to an end, Jarvis spoke: "Alita made me see my future, and I haven't missed every second of her 'growth' since the second she was born!"
She has a soul, she's a whole being......"
Alvin is happy to see Jarvis's yearning for a physical performance, and the reasons given by Jarvis can indeed satisfy him, what could be more reassuring than an artificial intelligence that cares about life?
"Jarvis, tell me honestly, can you accurately judge how you feel about Alita?
Have you ever been exposed to a movie like 'Lolita'?
I've always felt that your attitude towards Alita is a bit perverted......
That's probably why I can't talk to you all the time......"
In the face of Alvin's joke, Jarvis was silent for a long time, and then changed the topic stiffly, saying: "The yacht is equipped with the most advanced fishing boats, one of which is customized by Mr. Stark for himself to compete with you, I can tell you its number!" ”
Alvin squinted his eyes and savored it, and said to little Ginny and Mindy, "If Jarvis asks Alita to do something strange in the future, remember to come and tell me......"
