Chapter 1235: I Can’t Help
Huo Yao’s face instantly turned colder the moment she heard what Lei Xiao said. She quickly composed herself and replied: [I have never heard about them before. Who told you such nonsense?]
Lei Xiao replied: [My colleagues were gossiping about it. They think the perfectly evolved human might really exist and have tried looking for them, but I am on your side. I think it’s pure bulls.h.i.+t.]
Huo Yao acknowledged mildly.
Before long, she ended the conversation with Lei Xiao. She spun her phone as she looked out of the car window with her mind drifting away.

The car arrived at the National Research Inst.i.tute of Science and Technology an hour later.
After getting off the car, Mr. Jin and Qi Hui were led to the office while Huo Yao was shown to the laboratory.
Wei Yong was already at the laboratory. Since he had a lot of questions about the numbers for Huo Yao, he had sent his a.s.sistant to handle the contract signing.
A simulation of brain activity could be seen on the screen in the laboratory. Wei Yong was typing on the keyboard as he asked Huo Yao. “I am fascinated by the computing you have done on it. For some reason, I was unable to break it down. Why is that so?”
Huo Yao glanced at the screen nonchalantly as she stood beside Wei Yong and replied mildly. “The calculations are like a blueprint to a house. If you try to break them down, it will ruin the system.”
Wei Yong’s hands paused. He turned to look at Huo Yao. “Do you mean I can’t extract it freely and use it on other smart systems?”
Huo Yao replied. “That is right. You can’t break it down and use it elsewhere.”
Wei Yong frowned. This meant the system was fixed.
After spending lots of money buying the research, it could only be used on one robot. It was not what he wanted.
“Is there anyway to change this?” asked Wei Yong.
Her slender form stood where she was without moving and her expression looked completely normal.
She said, “Since AL is a pretty new field, there is limited research done for it. We were very lucky to have created the system. I’m afraid the things you are asking for are impossible for us to achieve.”
Wei Yong felt a little disappointed. Then again, this AL system was definitely the first of its kind in the industry, so it was already considered quite a breakthrough in the field.
He could only take things a step at a time right now.
Wei Yong did not continue asking her about breaking down the system for application elsewhere. Instead, he asked her about the gene database. “When we tried to perform gene replication using the system, we were unable to achieve 100% success. Why is this so?”
Wei Yong stood up and gestured for Huo Yao to take a seat and give it a shot.
In the past, he would never have allowed an outsider to lay an eye on their work. However, he made an exception today.
In any case, he had told the a.s.sistant to include a non-disclosure clause in the contract.
The moment anyone leaked the inst.i.tute’s proprietary information, a suit would follow.
Huo Yao did not sit down at the computer. “I don’t know either.”
Wei Yong was caught by surprise. He promptly said, “Isn’t Biology your specialty?”
Huo Yao turned her head to look at Wei Yong. She said normally, “This was a group effort. I am unable to help you just by myself.”
