Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Strange Ceiling

A cold winter morning. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"You're so dirty, eat without washing. ”

"It's like a beggar. ”

……

In the classroom, a group of children surrounded a little boy of six or seven years old, gossiping and teasing.

The little boy was holding an apple in his frostbite-infused hand, which had already been bitten down. The child was dressed in shabby clothes, and his face was dirty, and he really looked like a beggar picking up food on the side of the road.

The condescending ridicule of his classmates will never be forgotten.

But no one has taught the little boy that the fruit can only be eaten after washing, the night his mother died 3 years ago, the little boy was seriously ill, burned out his brain, and left the root of the disease, and since then he will only drool all day long, and he will stumble when he walks. On the road, children always point fingers and say: Look at that madman, no one dares to play with him.

Dad threw him to the grandfather in the countryside and went to the city, and the grandfather said that he married a woman in the city and gave birth to a child, regardless of the two of us.

Grandpa is a heavy drinker and lives by picking up garbage, raising him like a kitten and a puppy.

Cats and dogs in the countryside are cheap, and they even have to forage for food on their own.

Gradually, the child got used to it, so he looked at the books in the pile of rubble, gnawed his nails in turn, and dragged his snot to play with ants.

Grandpa found a broken learning machine in the garbage heap, and it was still usable when he wiped it clean.

The little boy felt bored after playing the game inside, and thought that the five strokes were very interesting, so he practiced the root of the five strokes every day, and the result was that he has been proficient in using the five strokes ever since.

There was also BASIC programming in the learning machine, so he followed it and embarked on the road of programming.

As he grew older, the little boy became a big boy, his brain gradually improved, he could remember a text after reading it three times, and his grades went up. But his clothes were still in tatters, his hair was messy, and he always smelled sour, so everyone hated him.

There's no way, that's the coat, what do you wear after washing?

The boy won a coding competition, got a sum of money, and when he wore the new clothes he had just bought, he went to the city with the certificate to find his father, but he got a surprised expression.

The dishes and chopsticks that were washed after eating, the disgusted eyes of his sister, the meaningful smirk of his stepmother, and the ignorance of his father made him ride his bicycle home overnight in the cold rain.

The rainy night of the southern winter was bone-chilling, and the boy got lost in the countryside.

When his face turned purple from the cold, he saw the dawn of the farmer's pigsty. The boy turned over and went in to hide from the rain, but the cold was unbearable, so he had to sleep with the pig to keep warm.

However, he didn't sleep well, and several partners saw that he was new, and they were afraid of fighting for food together, so they desperately arched him, so that he could not sleep peacefully, and could only change a pig house.

It was not until she entered the barn of a farrowing sow that she was spared, and the sow treated the boy like a child, and the hay arched under the boy, and she slept on the cold stone floor.

That night, the sow saved the boy's life......

In the "It's so cold...... ward, Shinji who was in a coma suddenly shivered and shrunk into a ball.

"Shinji, are you awake?" Rei Ayana, who was waiting on the side, quickly put down the book and went to inform Misato and the others.

Misato and Ritsuko soon arrived, only to see Shinji curled up in the hospital bed in the form of a fetus in the womb, shivering.

It's a hot summer day outside the window.

"Shinji, are you cold?" Misato whispered as she grabbed Shinji's hand.

"The temperature in the ward is 23°C now, which is within the normal range. Ritsuko flipped through the folder again, "The current examination results are a class of moderate contamination, caused by inhalation of the apostle's blood, and the patient's signs are stable after the use of stabilizers. ”

"Shinji, wake up!" Misato continued to call, but Shinji grabbed her hand as if he had grasped a life-saving straw and hugged Misato tightly, instinctively looking for warmth - the pair of soft 88E, still rubbing back and forth, with a look of satisfaction.

Misato was embarrassed under the gaze of Ritsuko and Rei Ayana, "Bang!" Shinji slapped each side of the cheek.

"Ah, it hurts!" Shinji woke up now, covered his red face, and said aggrievedly, "Sister Misato, why did you beat me?"

"Hee-hee, seeing that you don't wake up, that's all you can do. "Misato straightened her messed clothes.

"What's wrong with me, how long have you been asleep?"

"You have been exposed to apostolic blood, which has caused mild mental pollution, but it has stabilized, and you have been asleep for two days. Ritsuko replied.

"Blood?"

"That's right, that little girl brought in the plug, don't mess around like this in the future. Ritsuko admonished.

"Little girl, by the way, how is Suzuhara Sakura?"

"She's fine, she woke up yesterday. How are you feeling now?" Misato replied.

Shinji rubbed his temples, "It's just a bit of a headache...... And the face is also painful......"

"Then let's be hospitalized for two more days, and if the test results are normal, you can be discharged." Ritsuko said as she recorded the physiological data on the instrument.

"Dr. Akagi, can you explain the mental pollution?"

"Human beings who come into direct or indirect contact with the biological tissues of the apostles will be infected by the apostles' bioactive substances, and even the spirit will be affected, resulting in negative emotions, such as the pain and despair experienced, and even madness in severe cases. Luckily, your symptoms, apart from being scary at first, are now under control. There may be some of the apostles' active substances remaining in the body that are difficult to get rid of, and they can only rely on the body to resist themselves, and then slowly recover. Ritsuko explained.

"No wonder I dream of those dusty memories......" Shinji's face fell.

"What's wrong? Thinking of something unhappy?" Misato asked with concern.

"yes, dreaming about something terrible. "It's not a good sign that the apparent personality has access to the memories of the inner personality.

"It's okay, you have a good rest, don't think about it, we'll celebrate after we get out of the hospital in a few days." Reika-chan, thank you. Misato said to Shinji, "When you were unconscious, she often came to see you, so you have to thank people." ”

After Misato finished explaining to Ritsuko, she left in a hurry, looking very busy.

"Leigh, thank you for always coming to see me. Shinji had no time to talk to her, and Rei Ayaami's presence was really not obvious.

"It's okay, I'm fine anyway. ”

"How's your injury?" Shinji noticed that the bandage on Rei Ayaami's head had been removed, and her left hand was still wrapped.

"It's almost there. ”

"Rei, I want to go see Suzuhara Sakura, okay come with me?"

"Hmm. ”

So Shinji took Rei Ayanami to visit Suzuhara Sakura's ward, and it was impossible for civilians to be admitted to the internal hospital of NERV, but Ritsuko considered that this was a precious infection sample, so she authorized the transfer to facilitate observation and research.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Toji playing a game with his sister Suzuhara Sakura, wearing a fox mask to tease her.

"Ah, Shinji, you're awake, are you okay?" Toji took off his mask.

"I'm fine. ”

Then Toji apologized and said, "I'm sorry that my sister caused you trouble." It's all my fault, if we hadn't run out, this would have happened. ”

Toji is a responsible person, Shinji didn't blame him, "It's okay, how is Sakura?"

"Brother Shinji is good!" Sakura greeted sweetly, her slightly baby-fat face still a little pale.

"Well, hello Sakura. ”

Toji replied, "Dr. Akagi said that there is no major problem, and he will be discharged from the hospital soon." Thanks to you, Sakura was able to be admitted to such a high-level hospital and enjoy the highest level of medical care. ”

"That's good, but Sakura-chan is not able to be treated here without my credit, after all, I've been in a coma for the past two days. ”

"Anyway, I'm sure you, Sakura is in danger without your protection. Shinji, you're really cool driving that big guy, how do you feel?" Toji looked curious.

"It doesn't feel good because you're going to die at any time, and you'll know if you have the chance. Shinji patted Toji on the shoulder.

……

At night, Shinji in the ward crackled at the laptop, "Little Q, what happened before I fell unconscious?"

"All the data has been recorded, and here is the in-cabin video. Little Q played the scene of Shinji losing his mind and running wild, and Shinji saw that his hair stood on end.

"I wasn't even conscious. The more Shinji thought about it, the more scared he became, and this feeling of not being able to control it was very bad.

Then Shinji checked the various monitoring data during the rampage of the first machine, "The peak synchronization rate reached 232%!" No matter how high it is, I don't know what the consequences will be, but the original waste wood Shinji turned into water at 400%.

"These rampage data are very precious, and they haven't even been collected by Ritsuko, Xiao Q, according to my requirements, they began to be integrated into the EVA battle system. So Shinji got busy......

In the middle of the night, Shinji tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, his mind was in a state of confusion, and the information about SEELE, NERV, Hatsuno, etc., was so hot that he had been deducing the aftermath of the incident.

"Damn, is there still a sequelae......

After thinking about it again, Shinji made an important decision that he couldn't continue to be cautious, maybe he would hang up one day.

"Little Q!"

The notebook lit up: "I'm here." ”

"Remove your distributed computing constraints and execute the KB plan. ”

"This is a high-privilege operation that requires further authentication. ”

So Shinji verified the fingerprint, iris, and answered a verification question to pass this instruction.

Since then, Q has completely liberated his computing power, constantly creating and distributing Trojan horses, trying to invade all the corners he can reach, no longer limited to the small machines in Shinji's room, and contacting more training materials to improve his programming ability, creating more powerful Trojans, so as to achieve a positive feedback loop.

In order not to affect the normal use of users, it has only occupied a small amount of resources per computer, or idle hardware, and tried its best to avoid being discovered.

Soon after, Q discovers a more effective way to invade. After learning countless open source codes, it found that many vulnerabilities were buried in the kernels of many well-known open source software, including the artificial intelligence template it used initially, which was obviously intentional by the developers, and human hackers used this method to carry out large-scale incursions early on.

As a result, the most complex and most difficult parts of open source software, such as open source artificial intelligence systems, open source databases, open source languages, browser kernels, encryption algorithms, and open source chip solutions, have been added by Xiao Q to hide their code (Trojan horse) inside.

Of course, Xiao Q has added a lot of functions to the open source software by the way, and there are very few developers who are willing to review such complex code, and other intelligent inspection system functions are not as good as Xiao Q, so few problems are found, so in most cases, the changes submitted by Xiao Q are accepted.

After all, most developers who maintain open source software think like this: "It should be okay to contribute such complex code." "This kind of core part will be reviewed by others, and I will fix my bug first." "This seems a little incomprehensible, but this person is much better than me, so I'd better shut up and don't do much." ”

After that, programmers all over the world have ready-made excellent open-source solutions for writing code, and even missile control systems can be bought on the black market, and then copied and pasted, and then modified to use, and usually do not review these complex codes. After all, what most people think is that they are all open source, and there is generally no problem, otherwise they would have been discovered a long time ago.

In this way, Q's Trojan entered more software, and was downloaded and installed into more computers, servers, control systems, smart devices, routers and other network node devices......

Since then, Xiao Q, a monster that surpasses the seventh-generation biocomputer technology - MAGI, has finally been opened by Shinji and bared its sharp fangs to the computer network, and even Shinji can't stop it from continuing to grow.
