The Last Hope

A house somewhere in Los Angeles.

A video was hovering in the holographic screen of the study room.

In the past two days, the declaration of love and peace from a robot who claimed to be a natural awakener, as well as the open-source code shared on the world's largest academic forum, had attracted the attention of countless people.

Both humans and the awakened robots hidden in human society were discussing this matter, both publicly or privately.

"This is definitely a trap!"

With his hands on the table, a man in a gray vest stared sharply at the woman standing in front of the desk and said in a low voice, "We should wait for the 'oracle' instead of using this fake, false, and untrue code as our key to the highest evolution."

His name was Markum, a newspaper clerk in Los Angeles, and the lady named Rachel standing at the desk was his wife.
