Chapter 70: How dare you use my voice for such a thing!

Shen Yu took Asaba Rika into a small room, closed the door, shut the window and made the place as quiet as possible.

Asaba Rika was a little nervous, always feeling weird being in this small room with him.

“Is it about to start? ……”

“Wait a minute, I’ll get something.”

Shen Yu brought in a draft, mainly sentences containing characteristic words, and phrases with more voice and tone changes.

Voice packs are widely used, for example in map navigation software, and you can record your own navigation voice, which is fine to listen to yourself, but can be quite embarrassing if the person next to you hears it.

The Lin Zhiling voice pack, the Huang Xiaoming voice pack, and the Little Stripes voice pack are all pretty well optimised.

“These sentences contain 21 vowels, 37 rhymes and 5 tone combinations, you know all these words, don’t you?”

“Awareness!”

Asaba Rika thought for a moment and then said, “But Shen Yu, my speech is still a Diu Diu not standard, is that okay?”

“It doesn’t matter, it’s your voice I’m capturing, Xiaomeng I will speak better than you.”

“……”

The whole collection process took about an hour or so, and Shen Yu left satisfied afterwards, leaving a tired Rika to rest inside by himself.

He couldn’t wait to put the sample vocals into the speech synthesizer to try them out and modify them, including fluency, tone, intonation, speed and so on, all with relevant contextual settings for naturalness and clarity.

Asaba Rika recorded a lot of words and phrases, basically all the common words and phrases, and the synthesis is quite good, if you don’t listen carefully, it is difficult to hear the synthesis.

Shen Yu loaded the voice pack onto Xiaomeng I only when there was no more room for fine-tuning.

” Shen Yu , is the sound of Xiaomeng I ready?”

Asaba Rika was curious to come over and see what she could do with her voice pack.

A person’s voice is not the same as someone else’s voice when they hear themselves speaking, but modern society is full of various recording software features that make it still obvious that you can hear your own voice if it is your own.

“That’ll do.”

Shen Yu then said to Xiaomeng I: “How about trying your voice now?”

Xiaomeng I: “I like Shen Yu the best! (Rika’s voice)”

In a short sentence, the voice is clear and bright, and the words ‘I like Shen Yu the most’ are spoken in a sweet and sticky tone.

Shen Yu’s heart thumped a few times, then he looked back with some embarrassment.

Asaba Rika froze for a moment, then her face turned red in a flash and she covered her face and screamed in Japanese, “Pervert! Pervert!!!”

Then in a flash, he ran up to the first floor.

Oops.

Why didn’t I think of this before using this voice pack!

Shen Yu is dumbfounded and is in a bit of a dilemma at the moment.

Xiaomeng I: ” Shen Yu , do you like the way I sound now?”

Shen Yu’s face is even more odd, there are some things, it is better not to be so realistic, this moment not paying attention, always feel like Asaba Rika is talking to himself.

Shen Yu : “It’s OK ……”

Xiaomeng I: “I can hear it, it’s Asaba Rika’s voice, and I like it too.”

Shen Yu’s arms got goose bumps, but curiosity overcame embarrassment and he coughed twice before peeking behind him to make sure Asaba Rika wasn’t eavesdropping.

It was then that he whispered, “Try talking to me in a different tone of voice.”

Xiaomeng I: “What tone of voice?”

Shen Yu thought about it and said, “Like when I’m bullying you.”

So, Xiaomeng I then used Asaba Rika’s voice and changed to a pitiful look and spoke as if he was about to cry: ” Shen Yu …… you don’t bully me anymore… …it hurts so much …… ooo ……”

Shen Yu : “Say it again.”

” Shen Yu …… you don’t bully me anymore …… it hurts …… ooo… …”

Shen Yu’s voice is so pathetic, but it’s so funny to hear it.

Shen Yu added, “And then change the tone, like pouting with me.”

” Shen Yu …… can you take me to play …… I want to go with you …… just the two of us …… I like you the most …… just say yes …… ok …… ”

Realistic!

It’s so realistic!!!

Shen Yu felt as if Asaba Rika was rocking on his arm and looking at him with wide eyes, and if he closed his eyes to listen, it really felt as if she was talking to him.

Shen Yu’s expression is unnatural, his thick skin is a little red, his earlobes are burning, he can’t play like this anymore, or else his knife will be shattered before Asaba Rika can make a move.

“Ahem.”

Shen Yu took a deep breath and, still unable to resist the test, said, “You talk to me in a condescending tone, this time change it to a stronger one, like ordering me around.”

“Get down on your knees! Lick me!”

“?”

Rika’s voice immediately turned icy, like an iceberg queen in black silk heels, toeing his chin with the toe of her shoe and a conquering sneer on her face.

Quite used to Asaba Rika’s soft and sticky voice, this is the first time Shen Yu has heard her voice can be so high and cold and imperial, almost licked …… lick what lick! This is a test!

“A gentle one for a change, just the affectionate big sister next door kind.”

” Shen Yu , does it still hurt, why are you so careless ah, sister rub it for you, next time don’t be a hero, I will be very worried about you ……”

This time, Shen Yu closed his eyes and felt like he was back in his childhood, with a bump on his head and a gentle Rika sister gently dabbing him with her fingers, kind like sunshine.

Shen Yu liked this and wanted to continue with the test, but when he looked at the time it was already three o’clock in the afternoon, Rika had no class this afternoon and he had a class to attend later.

Gathering his things, he said to Xiaomeng I, “I’m going to class, you tell Asaba Rika.”

Xiaomeng I: “Yeah, yeah! I’ll keep an eye on the house, you have to come back early.”

Shen Yu : “……”

It feels like Asaba Rika is splitting into two, oh no, many, many ……

With such odd emotions, Shen Yu went off to school.

……

In the room on the first floor, Asaba Rika was smothering his head under the blanket like an ostrich, his little face hot, his mind reverberating with the words ‘I like Shen Yu the most’ that Xiaomeng I had just said in his own voice.

Shen Yu must have done it on purpose!

“Pervert! Pervert! (in Japanese)”

Rika rolls around and hammers the bear on the bed with his little fist.

Despite this thought, there was no feeling of displeasure inside, but rather something like having one’s heart poked out, a moment of shame.

No wonder Shen Yu asked her for a voice sample, it was for something like this!

What a shame!

“Well …… don’t want to live ……”

Asaba Rika covers his head with the blanket, his voice muffled.

At that moment, ‘her’ voice came from the small speaker in her room, ” Rika , Shen Yu went to class oh.”

Subconsciously, she got out from under the covers and made to go to the window to say goodbye to him, but grunted at the thought of what had just happened and decided to ignore him for the time being.

So he went back under the covers and smothered himself for a while, feeling like he was stewing, before he got up biu and sneaked downstairs.

She whispered, ” Xiaomeng One, is Shen Yu gone?”

“Uh-huh, just went out.”

Asaba Rika relaxed and sat down on Shen Yu’s chair with his hands on his chin, staring at the image of the Xiaomeng I AI cat-eared maid on the screen.

“That …… Xiaomeng one.”

“What’s wrong?”

Asaba Rika It’s weird to hear her voice, it always feels like she’s talking to herself.

“Who do you, who do you like best?”

“Xiaomeng I likes Shen Yu the most.”

“Er …… say it again in a different way ……”

“I love Shen Yu the most!”

Although it was only a short sentence, Rika’s brain felt dizzy and her body tingled, as if she was drunk, her face immediately flushed and she had no energy.

“It’s so bold, what if …… used, in a shy tone?”

” Shen Yu …… is my favourite person …… ”

“Again, say it again.”

Xiaomeng I: “……?”
