Act XII. I'm just a detective
Hearing Bai Ge's words, the expression on Professor Theon's face suddenly stiffened, and he glanced at the ascender conductor of the [Orient Express] who was sitting not far away, his eyes flickering.
"Don't worry, they can't hear it."
Bai Ge put down the cup and said softly.
"I thought it was a little strange at first, alchemy dolls are logically breathless in many cases, but Nala is different, she always has a faint and imperceptible aura, which is completely different from alchemy dolls."
Although he is not a lover of spherical joints, Bai Ge, who has a lot of experience with alchemy dolls, knows that alchemy dolls don't actually need to breathe, even if love is a real [miracle], its external performance is also in line with the characteristics of alchemy dolls.
The so-called "breathing" and "eating" are all deliberately manifested as human beings.
In the Pan-Western Sea Commercial Community, the new Kelsava is endowed with a variety of characteristics that are almost indistinguishable from humans, which in addition to responding to the special needs of some people, but also making the alchemy dolls less fearful.
With breath and body temperature, it responds to external stimuli in the same way as humans, which is more acceptable than a cold machine.
Therefore, alchemy dolls do not require breathing in nature, and this function can be turned off when they are deliberately controlled or in a dormant state.
And Nala, in Bai Ge's perception, is always in a state of normal breathing, although it is very weak, but it is true.
"Later, I found out that Nala can be influenced and manipulated by the ascender of the fate archetype, which is also a very strange thing for alchemy dolls."
Even if they have a human love, they have a strong patience for hypnosis and interference of the person who has ascended to the prototype of fate, and the real alchemy puppet even thinks differently from humans, how can it be controlled by the twilight wolf so simply?
Therefore, Bai Ge judged that Nala was not a complete artificial intelligence, but an alchemy human based on the human brain and spine, and the body was completely replaced by alchemy parts!
This was known as cyber in the old era, and after the Great Collapse, a similar idea also appeared in the hedonistic trend of the [Lost Age], some people tried to completely copy their minds into the computer network, abandon the body, and gain eternal life, but such attempts quickly failed, and they found that the human mind is almost impossible to replicate completely, even with the most advanced computing power, there is no way to reproduce even the simplest children's brain structure.
So, some people thought of it, leaving only the brain.
They took out the subject's brain intact and placed it in a special container, using it as a basis for modification, in order to transform the weak flesh into solid steel and sophisticated machinery.
Of course, with the failure and failure of the central computer, mankind had to leave the shelter and start the land again, and these studies came to an abrupt end.
Later, for ethical and other reasons, similar research was completely banned to this day.
"Professor Theon, what exactly are you studying?"
Bai Ge didn't think that Professor Theon happened to encounter an accident with his daughter's family when he was researching artificial intelligence, and he was forced to make a decisive attempt to turn Nala into an alchemy human, which was too whimsical.
Without prior research, without repeated failed experiments, without similar puppet bodies and corresponding techniques, this would not have been possible.
Therefore, Professor Theon may have been engaged in similar research from the beginning, but it was only in an accident with his daughter's family that he decided to take risks and conduct human experiments in order to save Nala.
“...... Mr. Hercule, everybody has a lot of troubles, and I just want Nala to live. ”
Professor Theon didn't explain, but just said that.
"I confess that I have done a lot of research that violates human morality, morality, and law, but I am not proud of it, Mr. Hercule, I know that it is sinful, but if my sin can be exchanged for Nala's life, I am willing to pay for it."
“......”
Bai Ge was silent.
Combined with what he learned afterwards, he was able to deduce something.
Professor Alfred Theon works at the Pan-Western Sea Academy of Natural Sciences, a scientific research institution affiliated with the Supreme Council of the Pan-Western Sea Business Community, so the research done by Professor Theon and the grants, personnel, materials, and equipment will surely pass through the eyes of the Supreme Council.
It is impossible for this professor to hide from the sharp-eyed businessmen, and there is only one reason why they turn a blind eye to such illegal things, and that is that it is itself instructed by the Supreme Council!
That's why MI5 sent agents to protect Professor Theon.
It's just that this matter is more secretive, so McCro Wu and Philo Yang will hear that set of artificial intelligence Yunyun and come to join Professor Theon.
If MI5 had known about Professor Theon's real research, I am afraid that there would be a big controversy within the Pan-Western Sea.
The matter has reached this point, and Bai Ge has no intention of continuing to investigate.
He just came to the Pan Western Sea to find the traces of his mother Bailu and take revenge, and he did not get involved in the idea of this complex political vortex.
"Don't worry, Professor Theon, I'm just concerned about Nala."
Bai Ge took a sip of beer, and after leaving it for a while, the beer was not so cold, but it was still mellow.
"What will she be treated when she arrives in the Pan-Western Sea?"
Perhaps thinking of a certain alchemy doll, the corners of Bai Ge's mouth unconsciously softened.
"She's the only one who succeeds...... The only successful case, whether from an experimental point of view or my own point of view, I, I will protect her well, at most there will only be a routine physical examination, which is a project that I lead...... I'm not going to let anyone else hurt Nora. ”
Professor Theon said firmly.
"I'll write to her."
Bai Ge drank the beer and got up to leave.
"Mr. Hercule...... You, who are you? ”
Professor Theon asked with a wry smile.
"Just an ordinary detective."
Bai Ge pressed his top hat
Professor Theon sat in place, looking at the direction in which Bai Ge had left, and couldn't make any more movements for a long time.
...
...
"Sure enough, I still can't let go of ......"
Back in his private room, Bai Ge took off his top hat and smiled a little self-deprecatingly.
In fact, after he deduced the situation of Nala and Professor Theon, the best thing to do was to remain silent and pretend that he didn't see anything, which was the safest.
And after Professor Theon learned about Bai Ge's truth, although Professor Theon should not take any measures against Bai Ge, maybe if the person behind him knew about it through some method, it would be unfavorable to Yasen Hercule.
Although Bai Ge can completely change his identity and continue to live with a different face, similar things will definitely happen in the future, and there will always be more trouble.
This is not the best and most sane option.
But Bai Ge still chose to come to Professor Theon and really solved the incident that had been resolved.
This is naturally not a meaningless insistence such as a detective must tell the answer.
It's that Bai Ge really can't let go of Nala, the poor little girl.
Bai Ge didn't know if Nala was aware of the fact that he was an alchemy human, but he knew that Nala was indeed a human with a human nature.
Therefore, Bai Ge had to use this way to remind Professor Theon and let him protect Nala from being treated inhumanely.
As for the possible dangers, Bai Ge did have some ways to deal with them.
After assassinating the twilight wolf, Bai Ge felt that his level of fame attack had increased slightly, but it did not reach the point where he would resonate with fate, gain new abilities or improve himself, and it seemed that after entering the stage of [Hero's Proof], the level of fame attack would not be so easy to improve.
Or is it because Bai Ge's assassination of the twilight wolf did not have the witness of the audience, and it was not grand enough?
The most famous assassin in [The Legend of the Assassins], Bai Ge has checked, but in the hall, in full view of everyone, he tried to assassinate a generation of kings.
Unlike assassins, assassins need to kill their targets silently, without a trace, and assassins, especially those who act as righteousness, need to be witnessed by people to their feats and use this to shock the world.
"But do you want to be grandiose......"
Knock Knock Knock –
While thinking, there was a knock on the door of the private room, and Bai Ge opened it, finding that it was Makero Wu and the pale-faced Philo Young.
"How's your injury?"
Bai Ge saw Philo Yang holding his abdomen with a bitter expression, so he asked.
"I guess I'll have to lie down for a while when I go back......"
Philo Young laughed.
After Bai Ge invited the two of them into the private room and sat down, McCrow Wu took out a badge from his pocket. The badge appeared to be made of bronze, with a ring and an eye engraved on it, with the inscription "Defend the Truth Till Death" corresponding to MI5.
"You should also know that we are MI5 operatives, and we only came to this train on this mission."
Macron Wu put the badge on the table and pushed it in front of Bai Ge.
"Since you're going to be staying in the Pan-Western Sea for a while, and you're also an ascender, we're giving you a few options."
Bai Ge looked at the badge and motioned for the other party to continue.
"The first is to go back with us, after careful review and inspection, join MI5 and become our colleague, you will have the power of endorsement from the Supreme Council of the Pan-Western Seas, and at the same time gain more knowledge about the Ascended and the Abyss Relic, and if you perform well and have a perfect degree of fame, you can also get historical fragments for promotion."
Macro Wu said in a deep voice that, as far as he knew, a number of MI5 operatives joined through this route, including himself.
Showing the characteristics of an upgrader, or being involved in a similar incident and coming into contact with MI5, and then being investigated, joining after qualifying, born in a regular academy, and only after several rounds of screening did he get the rainbow of promotion, those academics who became upgraded, such as Macro Wu, have more practical combat experience, but also more reckless and uncontrollable.
Seeing that Bai Ge didn't respond immediately, McCro continued.
"The second option is to become our official informant, well, that is, to receive this badge, you can get relatively formal identity documents, you will not be subject to troublesome and cumbersome cross-examination, if you encounter difficulties, you can also find our branch through the badge for help, we will issue commissions and tasks through some channels, if completed, you can get a good reward."
This is the choice of many unofficial promoters, who are relatively free and can also make money from MI5, the only thing worth worrying about is the harassment of some official promoters with malicious intentions, and the inexplicable disputes that may be involved.
But being a private detective or mercenary in the Pan Western Sea will face such a problem in itself, so it is nothing.
"Is there a third option?"
After listening to this, Bai Ge asked directly.
This made Philo Young and Macro-Wu stunned, thinking of Yassen Hercule's killing eleven people in a row in the car during the day today, such as eating and drinking, and going deep into the experience of [Hamel's Piper] killing the twilight wolf and retreating, they couldn't help but shiver.
This guy ...... I don't think I want to kill people.
Seeing that the atmosphere was silent, Bai Ge chuckled.
"I'm just politely confirming that I have chosen to be your informant."
Of course, Bai Ge couldn't choose to join MI5, after all, he was still a temporary worker in the Zhuxia Abyss Relic Affairs Division, and he didn't really want to become Erwuzai and blend into the Pan-Western Sea, besides, Bai Ge didn't want to face the censorship and expose the problem.
And after becoming an informant, not only does he avoid the trouble of identity, but he can also get some information from the official, Bai Ge believes that what Bi Zhenyan and the Alfonso sisters want to do, MI5 will definitely know.
In addition, the checks and balances between MI5 and the Pan-Western Sea Academy of Natural Sciences behind Professor Theon are also what Bai Ge needs to consider.
Since the Academy of Natural Sciences doesn't want MI5 to know about its research, Bai Ge, who has become an informant of MI5, naturally has a relatively solid backing, whether it is out of fear of MI5 or a possible deeper investigation by MI5 after Bai Ge's unfavorable behavior, it is enough to protect Bai Ge.
Therefore, Bai Ge chose the second one.
"I think so, right...... As for the Twilight Wolf, he has a bounty of about a million pounds in the official body of the Transwestern Sea, but it needs to be collected with a corpse, which may be a bit difficult without it...... But don't worry, I'll be able to testify to you in a future report, but the exact bounty may have to be discounted in half, and in about three weeks, well, three weeks after the train arrives in New Constein, you will be able to claim your prize with this badge. ”
McCro Wu laughed, a powerful elevated person like Yasin Hercule does not need to be bound by MI5 at all, becoming an informant is the best choice, and the reason why he is willing to help Yasin Hercule testify is to sell a favor.
Anyway, the money is not out of him.
Seeing that Bai Ge accepted the badge, McCro Wu told Bai Ge some simple usages and precautions before getting up and preparing to leave the private room.
Before leaving, Macron Wu, the third-order fate prototype ascendant of MI5, smiled bitterly and turned to Bai Ge.
"Mr. Hercule, at this time, I am really a little glad that you were not on the opposite side when we met."
...
...
After a day's delay, the Orient Express moved on, and five days later, the tribulated continental train finally arrived at its terminus, the city of New Constan.
Bai Ge set foot on the land of the Pan-Western Sea Business Community.
