Look away from the southern city for the time being.

In a certain test base, the leaders of various research groups gathered together with serious expressions.

"I have gathered you today to discuss the peculiar condition of the recently observed Subject 1." When the director said the code name "Experimental Subject No. 1", his expression twitched slightly, after all, it was his own flesh and blood, and the name was still taken by him and his wife, and it was a bit mustard to call it "Experimental Subject No. 1", but after all, it was a public occasion, so I could only endure it.

The leaders of the other research groups all had serious faces, and no one found fault with the attitude of the director. They had all heard some rumors more or less and knew that what was going to be discussed today was very high.

"Please see the transcript of the surveillance camera."

As soon as the words fell, the wall on the side of the conference room turned into a huge screen, inside which was a "test subject" who stayed alone in a children's room stuffed with toys.

It looks like he is playing with a set of soldier toys by himself, and he arranges the soldiers in two opposite rows, as if he is simulating the battle of the infantry on the front line of the Industrial Revolution.

Suddenly, the picture paused, and the director picked up the controller and fiddled with it a few times, and then the picture zoomed in partially.

"Watch out for this rifle that fell on the ground, we're going to slow down frame by frame now, be careful."

The slow motion began, and Subject 1 reached for the small rifle, his fingers slowly approaching the rifle, and then just as he was about to touch the rifle, the rifle was pinched between Subject 1's fingers in the next frame.

"Just dropped frames?" Immediately a scientist asked.

"No, that's the full record, we've double-checked."

"You mean, our little friend made the rifle move a short distance out of thin air? Could it be a reasonable error? The child got the rifle and then withdrew his fingers, because the time was too short, so it happened not to be captured by the camera equipment in the middle? ”

None of the camera equipment has the ability to record images coherently, and the results are just a series of images with very short time intervals.

The so-called high-speed cameras are just a matter of compressing the time interval to a very short time and taking a large number of pictures in a second.

So theoretically, there is a possibility that the intermediate link has just not been captured.

The director frowned: "You mean, my son's finger movement speed suddenly accelerated in twenty-four quarters of a second?" ”

With the director's words, a detailed calculation appeared on the screen, and the average speed of Subject 1 in the process of reaching out was very different from the speed in the last twenty-four quarters of a second.

"Of course, the scientist's job is to eliminate all kinds of false hypotheses and find the truth, so when we found out, we changed the surveillance camera to the most advanced high-speed camera we could find, you see."

The screen is divided into ten equal parts, and Subject 1 is doing a different thing in each small screen, but there is a suspicious "frame drop" in the middle.

Everyone's expressions were very serious.

"What do you mean," said the head of the experimental physics department, with the most serious expression, "our child is not only smarter than humans, stronger than human physical strength, more resilient than humans, more adaptable and more responsible than humans, but also has superpowers?" How is this possible! ”

"However, we are scientists, and we cannot deny the observed phenomena, but analyze them. In the past, no one thought that symbiosis with nanomachines could be successful, but now, we have done it, we have created a 'human' who can live as long as he is charged, he is less than a year old and can mentally calculate four-digit four-digit four-rule operations, faster than we can press a calculator, we have already seen miracles, why should we deny him when we see a second miracle? The director asked in a serious tone, "My attitude is very simple, this seems to be a superpower, there must be a scientific explanation, comrades, we are now standing in a field that no one has ever set foot in the past, we must be mentally prepared to face all kinds of unknowns." ”

Everyone nodded again and again, and then someone quipped: "I now have the idea of simply stopping and focusing on cultivating children who live in symbiosis with nanomachines, and when they grow up, they will definitely be many, many times smarter than us, and the problems we face may be solved by them at once, in this case, why don't we leave it all to them?" ”

"On this note," the Deputy Director suddenly spoke, "there is a proposal from the newly formed Child Psychology Project Team, they believe that growing up alone is not conducive to Subject One's mental health, and strongly recommend that we create siblings for him. ”

Immediately, someone asked, "What kind of brothers and sisters did you create?" Symbiosis with nanomachines, or ordinary people? ”

The deputy director was silent for a second before replying, "The Children's Psychology Project team believes that there is an overly obvious difference in abilities between peers, which will cause Subject 1 to be overly arrogant and arrogant, and may have terrible consequences in the future, so we should create nanosymbiotes with similar abilities to him." ”

There was silence in the room.

Then someone said, "Isn't this an extra handful of earth on the graves of us, the old men?" ”

Then someone immediately said: "But for the future of mankind, we have to transform into a new human being, what we need to do is to pass on the best qualities of the old human race to the new human race." ”

"It's also said that as long as the new humans are educated to be good children with a good sense of justice and kindness, then we old humans are estimated to be able to live a peaceful life and then usher in a good death."

"Ushering in a good end in a world where there are no cultural divisions and evil religions is a very attractive proposal."

"So," the director interrupted, "we're now going to raise our hands to continue cultivating new symbiotes, and if you agree, raise your hand." ”
