43 Alice 6 (1/2)
Moments later, Ci-ci reclined leisurely on a black couch in Dr. Rai's office while she sat straight and tall on her rotating armchair.
”What did you come here for?” She asked coldly.
”Oh? Wasn't visiting my favorite sexy doctor not enough of a reason?”
”Sexual desire is indeed a good enough reason.” Dr. Rai replied blandly as though it was the most natural thing in the world.
Then she stood, making her way toward the door to leave. ”You can see your way out then, right?”
Ci-ci chuckled bitterly, ”You're still as straight forward as always. Sit. I do have something to speak with you about, a partnership of sorts.”

”Oh.” Dr. Rai nodded, walking back to her seat without any sign of awkwardness.
”I'm planning on creating a dreamscape for VR Gaming. I need your expertise to help creating the technology necessary to game in our dreams.”
”Not interested.” Dr. Rai almost stood to leave again.
She only worked on things she had interest in. She spent her entire life on understanding what made some humans more intelligent than others and learning how exactly to qualify and quantify how smart an individual was. The only reason she spent decades researching sleep was because she felt the key to improving the mind might be linked to how the mind rejuvenated itself.
The concept was similar to caffeine or nicotine. When one drinks a cup of coffee or intakes nicotine in some format, the caffeine works to stop the neuroreceptors that cause drowsiness while nicotine can even increase the brain's performance among other things. Unfortunately, this process isn't perfect. Staying awake too long can lead to hallucinations and even death, while using caffeine or nicotine as a sleep replacement could lead to mild to severe addiction.
Something that happens during sleep removes all of these negative effects, rejuvenating the brain without consequence. Yet, for many centuries, even the greatest minds couldn't understand why sleep was necessary. Dr. Rai believed that there might be a thread or kernel of truth hidden in these mysteries that could help her with her intelligence research.
As for why she became acquainted with Ci-ci? It was simple. Although he had never taken a formal IQ test, it was clear and obvious that he was by far and away more intelligent than those of his age group. Even those old monsters who had decades to even centuries to train and forge their minds could barely compare.
The question was obvious… Why? Why Ci-ci? What was special about him? She had to know.
Truth be told, there were two reasons Ci-ci rejected Dr. Rai's experiments. The first was that he simply didn't have the time, but the second was more serious. He didn't trust her.
At first, Ci-ci thought that this might be an excuse for Dr. Rai to get a sample of his DNA, but he immediately rejected that idea. There were simply too many opportunities to get pieces of his DNA. Even a strand of hair left in his office back at Grandbell would have been enough. That was why Ci-ci didn't worry about his and Alice's sexual relationship.
However, what Ci-ci was worried about was being put into a deep sleep by Alice. Awake, he could protect himself. But if he was asleep? Put under so Alice could poke around in his brain? He didn't like that feeling of powerlessness.
Long story short, Dr. Rai simply had no interest in video games. And, obviously, she didn't do things for money or else she wouldn't have broken away from her family.
”Oh? You wouldn't take on this side project even if it meant I let you experiment with me a bit?”
Dr. Rai froze, her eyes even widened with what Ci-ci thought was excitement. Did the cold Alice really just display an emotion despite coldness? She didn't even display this much emotion when his cock was down her throat!
Ci-ci bitterly chuckled. 'It seems like my value to this woman is only as a lab rat.'
