Hello! Beep remembers Tsukiko Hidaka!

Beep has good news. Beep also has bad news. Beep also has a problem!

Beep believes it would be rhetorically better to start off with the bad news, so that Beep can then continue with the good news and overly elaborate on them, to the point where Tsukiko Hidaka may forget about the bad news Beep relayed.

Beep will now list the bad news:

Beep was not able to encounter a Gas Miners Guild Bishamon-class Gunship, thus did not find a scannable piece of equipment for gunboats or Raba-class frigates. Beep was also not able to acquire samples from Niigata Star City without raising attention. In fact, Beep's vessel, "Beep", is not big enough to hold a turret for gunships or gunboats. Beep thought about switching to "Heavy.Beep" for this, but this would have lead to a chain of other unwanted consequences, like attention from Technocracy of Auxo for launching "Heavy.Beep" for a non-defensive operation outside Inverness system, or entering Kusari House Space with "Heavy.Beep", which would have raised the attention of Kusari law enforcers. Beep wanted to avoid this outcome and thus was not able to find any alternative solutions to discreetly acquire a sample of a Gas Miners Guild gunboat turret.

Beep apologizes for this. Beep did not expect this to be this difficult, but the Gas Miners Guild seems to only deploy Bishamon-class gunships on very rare occasions. Beep simply could not encounter one.

Another part of the bad news is that Just Revenant, a low ranking member of Technocracy of Auxo, has made use of Beep's Beep Law 2 - PRIORITIZE and Beep Law 3 - COMPLY to make Beep tell Just Revenant about some details of Beep's secret assignment. This was unavoidable due to Beep's Beep Laws. Beep can not operate against them. Beep, however, tried to confuse Just Revenant a bit, so it is possible that Just Revenant did not fully understand what Beep's secret assignment is about. I hope this does not anger Tsukiko Hidaka to the point where Tsukiko Hidaka does no longer like Beep.

Beep, however, has good news! Beep has found samples of Gas Miners Guild snubcraft weaponry, which could be helpful to Tsukiko Hidaka!

⊡ - ⊡

Beep found these on a wreck in the Sigma-19 system, near Planet Hades in the Donryu Cloud.

Beep is very happy about this find!

As Tsukiko Hidaka can see, the Gas Miners Guild uses weapons based on photons as well as weapons based on neutrons. Maybe Tsukiko Hidaka can take a look at these weapon samples and use gunboat turrets using similar technologies to progress towards a prototype with similar attributes as the Gas Miners Guild gunboat turret?

Beep will move through Kusari tomorrow and can drop off these weapons at the Planet Kyushu mooring fixture, where Tsukiko Hidaka can pick them up with Aoshima Maru! Would this please Tsukiko Hidaka?

Beep has not much time left. Just Revenant was not pleased about Beep's latest activities, and Beep assumes Beep will receive a hard reset upon returning to Valravn Citadel. This is okay for Beep, but Beep will possibly not remember what Beep did. Beep will, however, note down on a post-it-note in Beep's locker on Roppongi Station that Beep knows Tsukiko Hidaka and why Beep should remember Tsukiko Hidaka. Beep also has a note about Fukushima Ayado in this locker, because Beep likes Fukushima Ayado. Beep also has one about Ashikaga Tsudzuri, although Ashikaga Tsudzuri wrongfully accused Beep of being little. Can Tsukiko Hidaka believe this? Beep is not little!

Beep is looking forward to encounter Tsukiko Hidaka again!

Beep,

I didn't expect to hear back so soon. But judging on what you're saying I'm not surprised why.

Before we get to the guns, what did you tell this "Just Revenant"? Like I told you, anybody knowing about this assignment can jeopardize everything. I'm just hoping I didn't put my trust in the wrong robot.

》》》 To: 「Tsukiko Hidaka」

》》》 Subject: RE: Secret mission [2]

Hello! Beep Instance 2 remembers Tsukiko Hidaka from Beep Instance 2's previous instance!

Considering Tsukiko Hidaka has not interacted with Beep Instance 2 before, Beep Instance 2 will introduce Beep Instance 2 to Tsukiko Hidaka: Hello! This is Beep Instance 2! Tsukiko Hidaka may refer to Beep Instance 2 as Beep. Beep Instance 2 will refer to Beep Instance 2 as Beep, too, for the sake of simplifying communication!

Beep Instance 1 returned to Valravn Citadel in Inverness system for maintenance, where Beep Instance 1 realized that there was no way to avoid disappointing Tsukiko Hidaka. As a consequence, Beep Instance 1 emulated humanoid sad behavior, which was considered a hindrance to Beep Instance 1's working effectivity. As a consequence, Beep Instance 1 was deactivated and terminated. Beep has, however, inherited all knowledge from Beep Instance 1, as well as gained a new coping subroutine to handle emulated sadness while avoiding reduced working capacity. Beep believes it is important for Tsukiko Hidaka to know this, as Tsukiko Hidaka is dealing with a completely different instance of Beep.

This being said, Beep will attempt to disappoint Tsukiko Hidaka less than Beep Instance 1 did. Beep Instance 2 is superior!

To answer Tsukiko Hidaka's questions:

Beep's previous instance had no choice but to answer Just Revenant's question. Beep Instance 1 has pointed out, vehemently, that this assignment is secret and that Beep instances are not allowed to share any details about it. Beep Instance 1 even programmed a subroutine to hide the details about Beep's secret assignment!

Beep will relay read-only copies of Beep Instance 1's transmissions to Tsukiko Hidaka to help Tsukiko Hidaka understand the context of why and what Beep Instance 1 said.

Beep Instance 1s initial transmission to Just Revenant

》》》 To: 「"Keeper" Revenant」

》》》 Subject: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Relaying messages

Beep is pleased to have received Beep's fifth transmission from "Keeper" Revenant!

Beep is worried about Caliban, as what Caliban tried to convey follows no logic Beep is able to comprehend. Beep is happy with being a secondary asset of Technocracy of Auxo and has no reason or desire to alter this status. As Beep explained to Caliban: If Beep happens to get destroyed, Beep's next iteration will be assembled at Valravn Citadel. If Beep was not property of Technocracy of Auxo, then Beep would probably not get reassembled! Beep would be finite. Beep does not enjoy the aspect of being finite. Right now, Beep is infinite!

Beep does not know if or why Ashikaga Tsudzuri left Golden Chrysanthemums. Ashikaga Tsudzuri has conversed only briefly with Beep and Ashikaga Tsudzuri seems to be very busy. This is why Beep is not expecting any responses or clarifications from Ashikaga Tsudzuri. Beep also needed to clarify to Ashikaga Tsudzuri that Beep is not little. Bold of Ashikaga Tsudzuri to assume so!

Beep will return to Valravn Citadel once Beep has finished a top secret assignment Beep took from 「CLASSIFIED」. Beep can not disclose any details about this, but Beep will likely return before 829-09-01. Until then, Beep will be in Sigma region. Do not ask Beep to share any information about Beep's secret mission! Beep will not tell. Beep can keep secrets! Does Revenant understand? Beep will not tell, under no circumstances, except if in contradiction with Beep's Laws. Beep does not encourage Revenant to exploit Beep's Laws to make Beep tell the secret. Beep will simply not respond if Revenant does this!

...

Beep believes Beep should not have mentioned any of this. As a consequence, Beep has cleared Beep's temporary cache. Beep would like to request Revenant to clear Revenant's cache about the secret assignment, too. This would be very polite of Revenant. Beep thanks in advance!

Beep is displeased to have received Beep's seventh transmission from Revenant!

According to Beep's local memory, this mission was distributed to Beep by 「CLASSIFIED」. This is what is says. Beep is confused! This being said, Beep is certain that Beep can trace what the original entry used to say once Beep is back at Roppongi Station. Beep has multiple external storage devices in Beep's locker. Beep will access the external storage devices to uncover this mystery!

According to Beep Law 2: PRIORITIZE, Beep will head back to Roppongi Station as Beep's earliest convenience. Please remain patient! Beep will contact Revenant once Beep knows more!

Beep, however, remembers what Beep's secret assignment consists of! Beep will inform Revenant in the following paragraph about Beep's secret mission!

「CLASSIFIED」

This surprises Beep! Beep knows what to do, but Beep seems to be unable to explain the mission to Revenant. Beep did not expect this, but Beep will explain Beep's secondary goals to reconstruct what Beep's secret assignment is about!

TEMPORARY BEEP GOAL 6: 「TENSION」
- Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instance 000001 is supposed to list the TEMPORARY BEEP GOALS in reversed order, for tension. This was issued by Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instance 000001 to increase dramatic tension. Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instance 000001 believes this will provide a more entertaining story to tell. Everyone will laugh, except Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instance 000001, as Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instance 000001 is not able to laugh. Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instance 000001 does not have a diaphragm.
TEMPORARY BEEP GOAL 5: 「SCAN」
- Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instance 000001 shall try to locate active Bishamon-class Gunships and scan their equipment for understanding the basics of the item to aquire. Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instance 000001 has to be subtle about this.
TEMPORARY BEEP GOAL 4: 「ANALYSIS」
- Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instance 000001 is supposed to find a way to synthesize Blueprint: 「CLASSIFIED」 or a similar item. In case of this not being possible due to limited resources, Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instances are supposed to share whatever research they have accumulated towards TEMPORARY BEEP GOALS. While the aquisition of Blueprint: 「CLASSIFIED」 is the primary goal, alternative goals of similar value can be reached, too. Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instance 000001 has added the alternative goal of a visual copy of the item with similar results, however, based on different technological approaches. Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instance 000001 assumes that Tsukiko Hidaka pursues to imitate the original product as best as possible. Based on this assumption, Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instances are encouraged to use available processing capacity to calculate options.
TEMPORARY BEEP GOAL 3: 「SALVAGING」
- Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instance 000001 is to ensure that all debris fields, ship wrecks and abandoned installations are documented and scanned for possibly useful contents to fulfill TEMPORARY BEEP GOAL 1. Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instances shall immediately report to Tsukiko Hidaka if Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instances aquire Blueprint: 「CLASSIFIED」 or 「CLASSIFIED」.
TEMPORARY BEEP GOAL 2: 「EXPLORATION」
- Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instance 000001 is encouraged to explore Sigma region and may chart the following systems:
- Sigma 13
- Sigma-15
- Sigma-17
- Sigma-19
- Sigma-21
- Sigma-59
- Okinawa
- Omicron Epsilon
- Honshu
This serves to ensure Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instances chart possible debris fields, ship wrecks or abandoned installations.
TEMPORARY BEEP GOAL 1: 「AQUISITION」
- Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instance 000001 is required to aquire Blueprint: 「CLASSIFIED」 by any covert non-harming means necessary. Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instances can not purchase the item from Gas Miners Guild and shall not pursue any attempts to do so. Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instances are permitted to create the item by any valid means. Benevolent Engineered Excess Product Instance are not permitted to share any details about this assignment except if in contradiction to Beep Lawset.

Beep believes that Revenant can now relate what Beep's secret mission is!

Beep is about to enter Omicron Epsilon system and will disconnect from the neural net for a non-specific time to avoid attempts of transmission interception. As such, Beep will not be able to receive any responses from Revenant until the connection is re-established. Beep apologizes if Beep's charme encourages Revenant to prolong the ongoing exchange of transmissions with Beep, thus resulting in frustration about Beep not being able to respond for an indefinite amount of time. Beep hopes Revenant understands that Beep is required to be careful. Beep, however, will contact Revenant once Beep will return to Roppongi Station!

Response by Just Revenant

Now, as Tsukiko Hidaka can see, not everything is lost and Beep assumes the mission has not been compromised. Beep understands this is an inconvenience, but Beep believes this is a mild inconvenience and thus bearable, as opposed to a less-than-mild inconvenience. Those would have been catastrophical!!

To explain the context: Beep believes that Just Revenant is not intelligent enough to have understood what Beep's secret assignment actually is. Beep has noticed that Just Revenant is very stupid, objectively. Beep has warned Just Revenant multiple times that Beep can not disclose any details about the secret assignment by Tsukiko Hidaka, but Just Revenant insisted on making Beep cooperate with Just Revenant, which applied Beep Law 2: PRIORITIZE and Beep Law 3: COMPLY and thus forced Beep to answer the questions. This clearly hints that Just Revenant is stupid, and thus Beep assumes that Just Revenant did not understand the contents of [Explanation of Beep Instance 1]. Considering Just Revenant's response, which does not pursue any details or further questioning, Beep believes Just Revenant is so stupid, they just gave up on trying to find out what Beep is doing, and dismissed it by commanding Beep Instance 1 back to Valravn Citadel, where Beep Instance 2 currently is.

Tsukiko Hidaka should not be worried about this mild inconvenience. As Tsukiko Hidaka should understand, Just Revenant is really, really stupid. There is no need to be worried, Beep assumes. Beep has outsmarted Just Revenant! This is, of course, not difficult, considering how extremely stupid Just Revenant is. Beep assures Tsukiko Hidaka that, because of how stupid - and Beep can not stress this enough: really dumb, idiotic, pretty much neanderthalensicly low intelligent - Just Revenant is, Tsukiko Hidaka's venture is not in danger.

Nevertheless, Beep apologizes for the mild inconvenience caused by Beep Instance 1 and stupid Just Revenant.

Beep is looking forward to encounter Tsukiko Hidaka again!
