局中人（中英文版）

　　One month ago.

　　Under the shining night sky, the lights of the city reflect the stars.

　　Eliana Turner\'s parents sat facing each other, their expressions showing not sorrow, but serious and shrewd. After a long silence, Mr Turner began, \"The company must be inherited by a better heir, otherwise the hard work of your household for nearly a hundred years will disappear in vain. Eliana Turner\'s death is a good thing. She was a failed heir, I have to admit that.\"

　　Mrs Turners nodded: \"The large amount that I paid you, was not to make you my husband. That\'s the price of cloning a child, but you blew it. You know my habit, I don\'t spend more than once on failure.”

　　\"But fortunately, we have found \'him\'. As long as we get the artificial human robot almost as good as a human from ‘him’, we can cultivate the heir who truly meets your will.”

　　\"Don\'t count your chickens before they hatch. It is a crime to build a highly intelligent AI robot, compared to a clone that will only be condemned by ethics.\" Mrs Turners said cautiously.

　　Mr Turner\'s voice turned up in eagerness: \"I know that, but we only need to pay nearly $500 million at expenses; we can get everything straightened out. Compared to the mentally unstable clone heir, a robot with superior intelligence and computing power will push your career to the pinnacle. For $500 million, you might build up a business empire worth $100 billion, which is a good deal.”

　　A smile finally appeared on Mrs Turner\'s face. \"You know me very well, so I certainly won\'t refuse the deal. Nowadays, the foundation of education is money. Of course, the quality of the next generation is linked to money. $500 million is not expensive. But the question is, how can I get the extra money for my custom robot out of the company\'s account without anyone knowing that I\'m hiding the money for my clone by marrying you to avoid possible legal risks?”

　　\"How about investing in the hottest genre of virtual experience TV? With a little work... It\'s an option.\" Mr Turner suggested.

　　For a moment there was silence.

　　Mrs Turner did not answer him. She got up and opened the safe, took something out and put it on the coffee table between them.

　　\"If I hadn\'t received this, I might have agreed with you.\" Mrs Turner pushed a portable hard drive in front of Mr Turner. \"I think this is the most convenient way,\" she said, \"rather than fiddling with those movies or TV shows.\"

　　The contents of the hard drive were an anonymous letter and a range of evidence.

　　Eliana Turner\'s parents:

　　I can\'t sleep because of the justice in my heart. I must share the truth that I know.

　　In fact, Eliana Turner\'s incident was a serious management failure, and it can even be counted as the result of bureaucracy.

　　In the past few years, the percentage of ‘potentially violent’ subjects on the simulated campus who committed crimes in the experimental campus setting was as low as a tiny 1.3%. However, the crime rate of the teenagers who pass the Violence Factor Activity Test has not decreased after entering the society, which makes the management team question whether it is reasonable to use data monitoring the ‘Potential crimes’.

　　Therefore, the Against Campus Violence and Assessment Violence Factor Active Research Institute has redesigned a group of robots to increase their autonomous computing thresholds so that they can interact more closely with the abuser while playing the role of the victim. After this adjustment, the percentage of ‘potentially violent’ subjects who committed a crime rose to 35%. Eliana Turner\'s death was caused by the artificially high autonomous computing threshold of the NC800 personality simulator.

　　I have attached the data of the robot before and after the adjustment.

　　As a person who knows the truth, I hope this act can truly assuage your conscience so that you can get justice for yourselves and your child Eliana Turner.

　　\"Now we have a source of funding.\" After reading all the evidence, Mr Turner laughed. \"As an official cooperative organization, the mobilizer of tens of billions of funds, only $1 billion is just a piece of cake.\"

　　Mr Turner spoke after a quick thought: \"This evidence is best to show on the second court hearing. We want to hold public opinion which expects to reverse this result.\"
