Not only have he seen it, but Jiang Chen can't forget that face even after it was burned to ashes, as well as the brain floating in the cultivation tank......

and the "Most High" who was buried together. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"We meet again, Dr. Lin Minjie. Looking at the man on the screen, Jiang Chen sighed with some emotion, took his coat from the open dormancy warehouse, and put it on the girl's body. "I thought you were dead, but I didn't expect you to be alive. ”

Although he was much younger than the last time he saw him in the underground shelter in Wanghai City, Jiang Chen could still identify him from his limited facial features. And the girl lying in the dormant warehouse also made Jiang Chen's expression a little complicated.

Almost at the same time that the screen lit up, Hu Cheng made a gesture and rushed to Jiang Chen's side with the soldiers behind him.

As he passed by Jiang Chen's side, he hurriedly glanced at the face of the girl in the dormant warehouse. There was a flash of surprise in his eyes, but he quickly made the decision to act as if he hadn't seen anything, dutifully focusing his full attention on the man on the screen in front of the gun.

Although he didn't know who this person was, his instinct as a subordinate told him that the relationship between the man on this screen and the marshal was not very good.

"Lin Minjie? I do have that name. ”

As if he didn't see the muzzle of the gun pointed at him at the doorway, the man looked up at the non-existent ceiling, and sighed as if he was stuck in memory, "Correct, whether I am alive or not is still up for debate." ”

Debatable?

Hearing this, Jiang Chen frowned slightly and slowly pressed down the rifle in his hand.

"Have you calmed down, no matter what conflicts you have with that person, you can't always be angry with the program, can you?" Lin Minjie spread his hand and made a helpless expression very humanely, "I was born in 2168, almost at the same time as this shelter, and the prototype of everything such as my personality and appearance is the programmer who wrote me." ”

"May I ask a question?" Jiang Chen asked.

"Absolutely. Lin Minjie bowed slightly, "Answering your questions is the meaning of my existence." ”

"What level of AI are you, beginner, intermediate, or—"

"Beginner, of course. Lin Minjie smiled, "For a commentator, thinking about this kind of thing is just a burden. ”

Jiang Chen was silent for a long time, and then ordered Hu Cheng on the communication screen.

"The people with you go out first and wait for me outside. ”

Hu Cheng was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "But-"

"It's an order. Jiang Chen blocked back the words he was about to persuade in a tone that could not be refused, "Wait for me at the elevator, and you are not allowed to come in unless it is my order." ”

For knights, the marshal's orders were absolute.

Although he was still not worried about his safety, Hu Cheng couldn't say anything more, so he reluctantly lowered his head and agreed.

"Yes......"

Raising his hand, he gestured to the soldiers in the squad, and Hu Cheng led the people to the direction of the corridor. Standing at the door, he glanced at Jiang Chen's back with some hesitation, but he still obeyed the order and walked towards the elevator with the person.

After the footsteps gradually moved away, Jiang Chen was silent for a moment, and then asked.

"Tell me, what the hell are you up to. ”

"Leave a spark for civilization. ”

"These ...... Clones, is that what you call a tinder?" Jiang Chen's rifle moved to the side, pointing at the girl who was looking at him with innocent eyes, and said in a cold tone, "Or, is this another disgusting experiment?"

At this moment, the girl lying in the dormant warehouse looks like Lin Ling carved out of the same mold. If this is not a special case, the scientists lying in the more than 2,000 dormant capsules are probably copies of Lin Ling......

Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Lin Minjie shook his head.

"You're mistaken. ”

"Misunderstanding?"

"In my database, there are no entries related to the 'Flame of Civilization' project. And now the human woman lying in front of you is a clone born from a somatic cell named Lin Ling through somatic cell cloning technology. Her name is Lin Yi and her number is 0001. ”

Jiang Chen was very curious, if the name of No. 0001 was Lin Yi, then what was the name of No. 0100, or No. 1000. None of that was the point, though, he only wanted to know one thing now.

"Why Lin Ling......" Jiang Chen asked the question in his heart with a complicated expression.

"Maybe it's because of the father's guilt for his daughter?Or maybe it's because of something else?" Lin Minjie shrugged his shoulders and said in a nonchalant tone, "The master who created me didn't tell me these superfluous things, I'm afraid I can't help you think about the answer to this question." As for why the clones were used, I think even if I don't say, you should be able to get the answer given the timing of the completion of this Vault. ”

Jiang Chen was slightly stunned, but quickly understood what he meant.

The Third World War broke out in 2171, and the out-of-process sanctuary was built in 2168, just before the outbreak of war. Considering the economic crisis in the world at the time, and the background of the existence of the Science Ethics Committee, it was almost impossible to select a group of "volunteers" from among the scientists to go to the future.

From this point of view, choosing to clone to pass the torch of civilization seems to be a helpless choice in the context of the times. Although it is also against the taboo of science, at least the cultivation of clones can be carried out secretly.

However, Jiang Chen still has a question that he doesn't understand......

"I don't understand why we have to use people as a carrier of information instead of more efficient machines?"

A mobile hard drive must carry more information than the human brain. And unlike humans, machines are inherently ignorant of what it means to forget. Even for tens of thousands of years, as long as the parts themselves are not oxidized, the knowledge can be passed on intact.

"You're not the first person to ask this question, my designer has said this to me, but unfortunately I can't give you a standard answer. Lin Minjie spread out his hands, "For reference, I can only tell you the conclusions reached by the researchers of the 'Flame of Civilization' project team. Hard disks can pass on knowledge, but only people can be used as carriers of civilization. ”

After a pause, Lin Minjie continued.

"Their souls are like a blank sheet of paper, and apart from the knowledge they are taught in the virtual reality program, their ability to perceive and learn is almost the same as that of a newborn baby. As long as you are willing to accept them, they will adapt to the outside society in the shortest time. ”

"As for whether or not to accept them, the choice is yours. ”

Lin Minjie lightly kicked the chosen ball to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen wordlessly looked at the girl with the number 0001 named Lin Yi lying in the dormant warehouse.

At this moment, she was expressionless, looking at herself with baby-like ignorant eyes. The clothes that covered her body slipped off, and she reached out and lightly touched the cold barrel, touching its outline curiously, completely unaware that she was not wearing a single strand on her.

"What is this?" Lin Yi asked.

After being silent for a long time, Jiang Chen sighed, put away the rifle in his hand, picked up his clothes and threw them on her.

"Let's put on our clothes first. ”

"Clothes?" Lin Yi tilted his head.

The corners of Jiang Chen's mouth twitched.

He now understands the meaning behind the phrase "the soul is like a blank piece of paper". (To be continued.) )
