Manager, how much is 1000-7?

[Manager, how much is 1000-7?]

"993."

Without thinking, X immediately said the answer.

So as a reward... a Takoyaki was put into X's mouth by Angela.

X happily closed his eyes, repeating Takoyaki in her mouth, enjoying the pleasure the delicious food brought, completely ignoring her own situation.

Now she was tied to a chair by Angela using a red rope.

The red rope was broken in half from the middle, wrapped around the neck, from the collarbone down, the chest bone and hip bone were tied with a knot.

[ Manager, in trigonometry, how much is tan90°?]

"∅, this is something that has no value, Angela."

X also answered without thinking. These questions were all too simple, but X didn't understand why Angela wanted to ask her like that.

But she doesn't need to understand, she just needs to know that now she has to answer in order to eat, and the one asking the question is Angela.

X ate very well, she even licked the grain of rice clean from the corner of her mouth, even though being tied up like this did not affect X's enthusiasm in eating at all.

[Manager, how much is 221^2^2?]

"Ah... 2385443281."

This time, X paused for two seconds before giving the answer. She was not even sure that the answer was incorrect, of course, because this was her mental calculation.

[Not bad, as a human, your calculation ability is already extremely excellent, but at this level of calculation, for me, not even a single second is needed ]

—— Meh, so why ask me?

X was angry but didn't dare to say anything. She could only listen to Angela seems praising X, but in reality it was just to exaggerate her own excellent nature and her narcissistic behavior ——X's amount of calculation in front of her is not worth mentioning...

But Angela does have the right to be arrogant, after all, even the smartest person in humanity, from beginning to end, is still no match for AI...

[The next question you must answer seriously, this is an important investigation by the Corporation for you, it will be recorded in the Manager's assessment.]

X looked at the food in front of her. There were 4 fried dumplings on the table. X expected that Angela would bring up 4 problems, one problem could only have one fried dumpling.

[ How many meetings does Control Department Dean Malkuth have in a day? How many projects did she submit in total in four days? How many parts of the projects have passed, and how many have been withdrawn?]

"...I don't know, isn't this what you're handling, Angela."

X didn't pay any attention at all, she ignored this matter, how could she know.

[This is something I helped you handle, it doesn't mean you don't need to pay attention, as Manager, you didn't even pay attention to Deans' hard work, this is irresponsible]

As punishment, X was fed a fried dumpling by Angela in an extremely humiliating way. X's behavior was extremely unwilling, and she reluctantly accepted the fried dumpling.

[ How many doses of Enkephalin does Training Department Dean Hod distribute to her employees every day? How many employees were punished today because of Hod's wanton distribution of Enkephalins?]

"...I don't know."

[ No relationship, Manager, I have helped you deal with some potential safety hazards.]

Angela was not angry, just gently stroked X's chin and fed another fried dumpling, X was pleasantly surprised.

[What type of file is not being processed by the Information Department Dean Yesod today? What is the official name of T-01-68? What are the conditions for managing it?]

"Ah... How do we know which files have not been processed by Yesod, and T-01-68's official name should be Funeral of the Dead Butterflies. To manage it, employees need [ Justice ] at level three or higher, [ Fortitude ] at level three or below."

[It seems that you still seriously read Abnormality's file, worthy of praise]

The fried dumplings were once again put into X's mouth. Angela stroked X's small belly, her belly was soft and tender. She clearly ate so much food but there was still no sign of it rising.

[What is Dean Netzach's favorite hobby? Is it possible that she completed her job well?]

"Drinking wine, chewing Enkephalin, falling backwards... But Netzach has a hundred percent chance of completing the job!"

X seemed to encounter a question that she knew and answered without thinking.

[Why are you so sure that Netzach will complete the job well?]

"Uhm, because Netzach has changed…"

X suddenly realized something, but did not dare to say in front of Angela that she had promised Netzach.

[So can you tell me clearly what is the method to save an addict from suffering without any medicine?]

Angela stroked X's red mark on her collarbone, that feeling of being caressed... There was always a subtle feeling of pain.

"Ah... Ah ah...."

X began to pretend to be stupid, as if she had no idea what she was doing wrong, and what made Angela unhappy.

[Well, this is your freedom, I hope one day you can proactively tell me.]

The last piece of fried dumpling was put into X's mouth. Angela seemed to have been fooled by X's stupidity.

[One last question, what is the final graph of the functional expression of r=a(1-sinθ)?]

"... Love... heart?"

X was constructed in her mind as a functional graph, appearing like a heart.

[It seems that you still have a bit of common sense in mathematics, here is your reward, fig pudding.]

Angela untied the red rope tied to X's body, then gave the small spoon to X, so X could enjoy a delicious fig pudding with peace of mind.

"Hm, I'm not full yet, Angela, is there anything else?"

However, X was not satisfied after finishing the last bite of food. Recently, her appetite had grown, and this small tray of delicate dishes did not satisfy her taste at all.

[Even though your weight is within the current human standard and belongs to the slightly skinny type, but if you don't control your eating and drinking more, you may soon lose control]

A simple translation is, no.

Poor X looked at the slick dining table and was extremely silent. She had spent a lot of effort just eating this dinner, but she still couldn't eat enough...

But this is just Angela's words, and it doesn't mean there's really no way to fill her stomach. X is the type that doesn't give up if she doesn't achieve her goal, but normally, as long as she can achieve her goal, any means are fine, she doesn't care about the process, only cares about the result.

So... X wants to use a super despicable but very effective method. This method really works every time. It's the most effective against AI, except for having to shoulder every bit of external risk, there is almost nothing bad about it.

"Angela, I'm hungry, really hungry. Is it okay to have a late night meal or not?

X began to cling to her own AI Secretary, half hugging the AI ​​Secretary, like an originally distant black cat suddenly pounced on its owner, full of problems.

[ No ]

Angela's face didn't change, she didn't show any signs of letting go, but she didn't refuse X's hug.

"Is that really not possible?"

[Manager, this is for your health, you only need to eat almost full in one meal]

But it's as if Angela has developed some kind of immunity to X. It seems like X needs to try a little harder to touch her heart.

"But I'm only half full. If I'm hungry I can't sleep."

As if to prove her sincerity, X took Angela's hand, placed it on her belly, gently kneading it.

[Sigh, what do you want to eat for your late night meal?]

Angela finally loosened her mouth, X made some 'sacrifice' in exchange for more food benefits - a late night meal.

"Spaghetti Bolognese!"

X replied in almost seconds, this enthusiasm compared to when X was with AI Secretary when her cold attitude was not only ten times higher, there was a huge possibility that.... Angela in X's eyes was not even equal to a Spaghetti Bolognese.

Angela seemed to know this too, so after X made her request, she did not immediately comply with her request, but continued to pull, as if asking X to add a few more 'gambling cards'.

[Hm... Then you have to promise me one condition.]

"! It's not an unreasonable request, Angela, I won't agree to you because of this kind of thing."

As soon as she heard Angela's words, X immediately became serious. She still had a certain sense of vigilance towards Angela. X is willing to promise anything to the Deans, but she absolutely will not easily agree to Angela's conditions, because Angela will eventually find an excuse to punish her.

Angela was hit with the [ Danger ] label in X's mind. She will not easily comply with Angela's request. At least just Spaghetti Bolognese is definitely not enough. If she wanted to give X something else, maybe she would think again.

[Am I such an untrustworthy existence in your eyes? It's really sad.]

Even though she said that, Angela's expression was very calm, her tone was calm, she didn't seem to pay attention to X's suspicious eyes, as if it had become a habit.

[Can you promise me, have a good night's sleep, have a nice dream, Manager ]

AI Secretary gently strokes X's hair, which always feels a bit messy, because it's a bit long, so it obscures the view.

"Ah, just this kind? That is of course possible."

So, X got her wish in the form of a late night meal. After all, the conditions AI Secretary said were really too simple, X felt like there was nothing wrong. This is very valuable, extremely valuable!

Something, Angela is still very easy to talk to.

After that, X was assured to comfortably enjoy this dish. After her stomach was full, she went to sleep.

This time, X slept unexpectedly deeply, suddenly got used to it, and then late at night someone entered her bedroom and sat down next to her bed, but she didn't notice anything, didn't react at all.

"Zzzz…"

Day 4, ended.
