Why do human hands have five fingers?

Some say that this is an evolutionary necessity, and that most complex tools only require ten fingers to be perfectly controlled, and whether it is one less or more, it will make the use of the palm problematic.

Just because it was enough for things in the past to have five fingers, they would think that it was the most correct, just like the Industrial Revolution hundreds of years ago, when everyone took for granted the inefficient productivity of the handicraft workshop, until the big factories came along, they realized how ridiculous the idea was. ”

The lock on the inside of the door was opened, and someone came in from outside the door, and there were tea leaves rising and falling in the navy blue porcelain cup, and his palm had no skin, but a prosthetic limb that exposed all the mechanical parts inside, and was not affected by the temperature of the cup wall at all, and continued,

"Since it is impossible to achieve a breakthrough in the physical body, it is natural to seek other methods, and the existence of mechanical intelligence is not to help human beings transcend the physical body?"

He was followed by several men in gray robes, their cheeks obscured by the bony mask of some kind of beast, and their faces were invisible.

Inside the room was a huge computer that took up a third of the room, and the screen, which was nearly five meters long and wide, split into nine squares, each of which played different content.

For example, in the upper left corner, at this time, a beautiful girl wearing pink mechanical cat ears is standing up from the table with some hesitation and walking towards the door of the room.

The angle of view is constantly moving, this is the camera that comes with the bracelet, and there are five screens with content similar to the one in the upper left corner,

One of the remaining three screens is black, and the other two are aimed at the doorway of the same room.

"It seems that there is a problem with the information you gave me, and the person who can't be defeated by 5 level 5 mercenaries, is it true that what you are talking about is just a video studio actor?...... I forgot, he killed several of your companions. ”

Placing the tea on the table, he pulled out his chair and sat down, his eyes locked on the screen in the center where the image was still not displayed.

A pale and delicate face was reflected on the pitch-black screen.

Not only his face, but his hair, eyebrows, and even his pupils were all white, which made his face look a little scary in this slightly darkened room.

In fact, according to his original plan, there was no such person, although the other party was quite famous, but he was not an anchor, and he had not conducted any investigation on him, so in his original plan, there were only six people.

It's just that there are always some surprises.

"As I said, we will have a certain bias in his intelligence gathering, and all you have to do is to wipe him out completely, and if you can't, then you don't deserve the reward we give you...... How long can your broken body last?You can't get the whole body prosthetic technique, we are your last hope...... Please let us see your sincerity, Mr. Hideyoshi Shinjima!"

The black-robed man did not react to the ridicule between his words, and the gaze behind the mask only lingered on his shrunken body for a moment, and the face of the man in the chair was completely gloomy.

"What about your sincerity?"

The mechanical prosthetic limb is placed on the keyboard in front of the screen, which is different from the common computer keyboard, at this time, the keyboard keys in front of him are not divided into numbers or letters, they are crowded together, and ordinary people will feel complicated and confused even if they look at it a few times.

"Takuro Iwata is dead, and you can find out about his death tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. ”

The black-robed man's voice sounded a little cold at the moment.

The last time they lost on the island was because of a sneak attack, this time, they came prepared, and the first thing they had to do was to take out the man who had hindered their plans!

"Oh, that's interesting......"

Before the words fell, the mechanical palm that had been unchanged suddenly unfolded, and each finger was split into three parts at this moment, each with an independent line connecting the prosthetic, not so much splitting, but rather that they were originally just together, and now they returned to their original appearance.

At this moment, Hideyoshi Shinjima had twenty more fingers!

On the glimmering keyboard, thirty knuckles tap the keys at a terrifying speed, and the image on the screen disappears, followed by a large amount of code data, and then a video unfolds at the top of the screen, facing a Japanese garden.

Several black-robed people looked at each other, others may not know, they naturally know where this is, the core area of the Iwata family!

The video was rewound at 4x speed, and it didn't take long for a large number of people and doctors to appear in front of the room in the video.

The scene finally freezes on the scene when a corpse covered with a white cloth towel leaves the room.

"Since you did what I wanted to do, I would naturally help you do what you wanted, and that's the deal. ”

The picture on the screen returned to the previous nine-square grid mode, and the middle square was still in a dark state, but a figure appeared in the other two cameras illuminating the door of the room, and walked downstairs without hesitation after going out.

"He's really not dead, so it seems that the people I sent should have been wiped out......"

"How are you going to kill him?"

The black-robed man asked in a deep voice.

"Since you found me and want to cooperate with me, you have naturally studied my "Evolution", what is one of the core contents of RPG games, do you know?"

Shinjima Hideyoshi did not directly answer the question of the black-robed man, but mentioned "Evolution" again, and after waiting for a while, no one answered him, so he pursed his lips with some disdain, and continued,

"Monster Hunt!"

......

One of the busiest areas in Tokyo is Haruhabara.

Dense crowds shuttle through the streets, some people wear headphones, figurative sound waves surround their ears, some people wear popular masks with words such as "tough" and "evildoer" constantly displayed on them, and some people wearing clothes printed with certain anime idols stop by some service-oriented intelligent robots created with blonde loli as a sample, asking questions such as "am I handsome", "am I okay to be your husband" and so on.

More of them are ordinary people who come here to hang out, most of them are well-dressed and carry all kinds of things in their hands, after all, the income level of people who can live in this neighborhood is not low.

The crowd blends with the neon lights around it, rendering a colorful ukiyo-e of the world.

Until those voices rang out.

"Ding Dong~", "Di ~", "Ding ~", ......

At a certain moment, the prompt sound of mobile phone messages suddenly rang one after another in the crowd, and then a considerable number of people stopped.

The picture of harmony is broken, and they are the "destroyers" of this superficial good life.

The expressions of these people were surprisingly consistent, the corners of their mouths were hooked, and there was an unconcealed look of excitement in their eyes, as if they had been waiting for the sound of the voice to sound.

Open the phone, click into the software, a flow chart of the evolution of a beast into a human flashed on the screen, and finally the title of "Evolution" appeared on the screen: Natural selection, survival of the fittest!

"Silver Hunt Mission Released!"

"Objectives: Pink Piggy, Gilly Egg, Cherry Balls, Baker Graves, Matilda, Eggplant. ”

"Quest Fulfillment Condition: Wipe Out Anyone!"

"Mission Reward: Level Up Point *1, 300,000 Federated Coins!"

"Mission Restrictions: Only members above level 5 can receive it, the time limit is half an hour, if the task fails, the level will be reduced by 1 level, only 20 people can pick it up, the number of people who can pick up the task: 20/20!"

"The current task is full, please wait. ”

......

"SHIT!! Who robbed me of my mission!"

Someone kicked on the bench next to him, and he only hesitated for a few seconds to read the content of the task.

Before he could vent enough, a push message flashed on the screen again.

Another mission!

This time, he didn't hesitate, didn't even think about it, and chose to take it directly.

"Congratulations on your successful Gold Hunt mission!"

"Objective: An unknown person currently located in Tokyo, with only photos as clues, may be located near the Star Bay Hotel, and its location and current status will be updated in real time. ”

"Quest Fulfillment Condition: Target Obliteration!"

"Mission Reward: Upgrade to Evolution Gold Member, 1,000,000 Federated Coins!"

"Task Restrictions: Only members of level 7 and above can receive tasks. ”

......

"Gold members! 1 million!"

Seeing the information on the screen, he exclaimed uncontrollably, and many passers-by looked at him, but he didn't mean to be embarrassed.

Turning the backpack to his chest, he took out a box containing a few injections and put it in his pocket, put on the image mask that was still hanging from his waist, rolled up his sleeves, the silver bracelet reflected the colored light around him, and the eyeball-sized tracking camera lifted off with the help of a device similar to a bamboo dragonfly overhead.

The zipper on the hem of the garment is fastened, and the neckline is pulled to the top, and the upright neckline fits the mask tightly.

The thumbs of the left and right hands twisted downward, and when they were lifted again, they had hooked the two rings extending from the cuffs, and pulled forward, and from the hem of the clothes upwards, there began to be a chaotic flickering phantom fluorescent effect on the surface of the clothes, and finally changed into a colorful skeleton imprinted on the body and shining.

He was standing in the middle of the street, facing the floating camera that had already begun filming, his hands outstretched towards the night sky, doing some kind of nervous prayer gesture in the eyes of others.

The image mask was also activated at this time, and after the orange streamer ripples, only two words were displayed at the end:

Handsome!

"Friends, the gold-level hunt mission is about to begin, now let's confirm the latest positioning of the target......

"Friend, you look very beautiful in a mask, can you lend me to play?"

Someone pressed the shoulder of the person who was about to make a move, and asked very gently.

The overwhelming crunch of the shoulder blades proved that the man was not as gentle as he had appeared.

"The real-time location system is enabled, and the target is ...... away You've found your target, locate and pause!"

Mutter~

The sound of swallowing saliva is clearly audible......
