Manhattan Waterfront Governors Island, Smith's private estate.

The banker Smith accompanies the maid Elsa, sitting on the sofa in the study, looking at the academic journal of Near-Death Experience. When I read the resonance, I put down the journal with my hands, leaned back against the sofa, closed my eyes and fell into deep thought.

Elsa smiled eerily as she watched Smith enter her full set.

Smith woke up, his eyes lit up, as he watched Elsa ask a seemingly unimportant question.

"If the human body dies, the undamaged quantum information in the microtubules of the cells will return to the void of the universe. If the human body wakes up, the quantum information is returned to the human body. Then this quantum information is the so-called soul consciousness. Is it possible that these consciousnesses and memories can be stored and then transplanted into new brains? In a sense, humanity can achieve eternal life? ”

"Honey, how did you come up with the idea of eternal life?"

Elsa pretended to be surprised, looked at Smith intently, and then quoted the French philosopher Descartes: "There are two entities in this world, one is a material entity and the other is a spiritual entity, and they exist and develop independently of each other." The essence of spirit lies in thought, and the essence of matter lies in vastness. ”

As they talked, Smith suddenly felt unwell, a sharp pain deep in his brain, through the nerve fibers of his body, throughout his back and face.

The maid Elsa saw Smith in a state of shock and panicked and shouted for help outside the manor.

On the bustling streets of Manhattan, a pink Silber luxury car worth tens of millions of dollars sped all the way from Wall Street Avenue to a sudden stop downstairs in the Empire State Building. Wu Yan. An Lina opened the car door, dressed in a white aristocratic dress, and her delicate doll face showed a radiant spirit.

At the same time, he was met by Pan Tianyi, who got out of a black Lexus car, dressed in a black suit, and his sunny and delicate face revealed a pair of confident and self-reliant eyes.

Wu Yan and Pan Tian passed through the security checkpoint one after the other, and walked into the elevator of the building one after another. The two stood looking at each other, Wu Yan silently admired him, the corners of her mouth raised, and she showed an indescribable smile. Pan Tianyi looked at her without saying a word, and then moved his gaze to the eighty-seventh floor of the elevator button.

Taylor's headquarters is located on the 87th floor, and the next 15 floors are occupied by the company's laboratories and other top scientific research departments. Now he's reporting to the company's headquarters and joining up with Parker Professor Biology to work on the Brain Cloning Project. This project includes brain stem cell cultivation, the fusion engineering of human brain neurons and AI deep information networks, and the exploration report of quantum information and consciousness.

Pan Tianyi came to the alloy gate of the company's headquarters, and his face was aligned with the recognition system for pupil scanning verification. The door opened, and several researchers in white work coats immediately stood up and saluted President An Lina behind him.

"Good morning, Princess Alina!" Everyone greeted in unison.

"Everyone's done a great job! This is Randy, a computer engineer, who will henceforth be your colleague and must be treated with supreme respect! ”

Wu Yan An Lina greeted everyone and instructed a beautiful black girl to take Pan Tianyi and Professor Parker to the company's biological laboratory. She walked into the president's office alone with a cool breeze full of perfume smell, with sexy steps and a comfortable face.

"Hi good morning, everyone!" Pan Tianyi took the elevator down one floor and greeted Professor Parker and Brian.

"Good morning, Randy!" Brian stood across from him, looking envious.

"Randy, how did you meet that little witch?" Parker, a biology professor, looked confused and surprised.

The three of them followed the project secretary, the black girl, to the biological research laboratory, where there were no other staff. Next, only the three of them were here in obscurity, doing boring research work.

"Don't look at me strangely."

Pan Tianyi looked at them, his face was shy, and he panicked, "I had a brief acquaintance with her, it was in the Sias Library, I stole her KFC and French fries, and we met so awkwardly. After that, there was no contact, until now I met her again. ”

"I see! I thought you had some kind of intimate relationship with her? You see the way she looks at you from behind, full of sweet love. It's so jealous!"

As soon as Brian mentioned Wu Yan, his eyes were full of admiration. After learning that Pan Tianyi and her were just ordinary alumni relationships, his heart was balanced and relieved.

"Stinky boy, what are you thinking! I told Ella to see how she cleaned you up in the future! ”

Professor Parker poured a basin of cold water on Brian, and through careful observation, he could better understand the hidden feelings between President An Lina and his life-saving benefactor.

He then interrupted the conversation between the two young men and got to work.

The ceiling light bar in the laboratory, from near to far, gradually brightens in a rhythmic manner, emitting a soft white light. In the center of the laboratory is a huge screen, which shows the working status of the surrounding equipment and instruments. The device at the front end of the giant screen displays various computer collection data such as room temperature changes, changes in the element composition of the culture medium, and the growth of cloned brain stem cells.

As usual, Professor Parker made his way to the glass petri dish in the lab, and looked at the pea-sized mass of brain cells with surprise and trepidation. It appears to generate a stream of consciousness and is constantly sending electrical impulse signals to the outside world.

As soon as Pan Tianyi saw Professor Parker, he couldn't help but sit on the ground, his face was full of panic, and he walked over and asked puzzledly, "Professor Parker, is there something seriously wrong?" ”

"The artificial brain soaked in a petri dish actually secretly sends brain waves to the outside world!" Professor Parker regained his shocked look, stood up and said, "Do you check the time period during which the computer monitors the microbrain?"

Professor Parker took a small sample of brain stem cells and placed them under a microscope to carefully observe the rapid division and replication of the cells.

Pan Tianyi walked to the instrument detection screen and found that the brain was intermittently sending brain waves to the outside world for four to six months. In other words, these miniature brains soaked in a petri dish actually have brain waves that are equivalent to the level of brain activity of newborns.

Then, he enthused, "These brain wave recordings show that billions of neuronal links have been established in the miniature brain." Computer calculations have shown that the level of brain wave activity in these brains is actually the same as that of a nine-month-old baby. ”

Brian stood in front of the brain wave screen, carefully analyzed the jagged peaks, and then continued: "Using the EEG, we can study from another angle that some neurological and psychiatric diseases are not related to the damage to the brain structure, but the brainwave imbalance directly causes the collapse of the mental system. For example, some schizophrenia, autism, and bipolar disorder may be improved by controlling the brain waves around the brain. ”

Professor Parker saw that his two students were able to quickly operate and integrate into the experimental work, and presented wonderful insightful ideas. He was so relieved that the horror and worry on his face disappeared in an instant.

He knows that it is precisely because of the fearless spirit of exploration of human beings that the development of civilization and science and technology will achieve a big bang forward, and no matter what difficulties lie ahead, mankind's pace towards the future will never stop.

At the thought of this, Professor Parker was relieved, and then he turned to his two students and said meaningfully:

"If you look around the laboratory, the rows of petri dishes are soaked in human brains, large and small, and there are thousands of miniature brains at a glance. However, this is not a simple brain cultivation, and if these artificial brains somehow gain human consciousness, it is not far from the continuation of life through human cloning, and then some new social ethics and human rights systems will need to be reformulated. ”

There was silence in the lab, and a loud applause came from outside the lab.

"Professor Parker, you are truly a genius in the life sciences, and your students will be in the future."

Wu Yan. An Lina walked into the laboratory, her delicate and graceful face showed a very solemn expression, and she said solemnly to Professor Parker: "We have just received an important patient in Bevi Hospital, and we have asked Professor Parker to go to the emergency room in person for a brain transplant. This biochip, the size of a fingernail, can be safely implanted into the patient's pineal gland! ”

A tiny, delicate biochip sparkles in Wu Yan's jade fingers, just like her beautiful green eyes that can manipulate the human mind.

Professor Parker looked at Brian and then at Pan Tianyi, and saw that their eyes were full of curiosity and excitement. In particular, Brian showed a greedy gaze, and kept looking at Wu Yan and refused to take his eyes away.

Professor Parker shrugged his shoulders and said humorously, "I didn't dare to try to break through myself before, but now I finally have the opportunity to challenge myself." Why not teach my students the best practical theories according to their aptitude? ”

At Bayy Hospital on the waterfront east side of Manhattan, a helicopter descends from the sky onto wide flat ground.

The hospital ambulance team, which had been waiting for a long time, carried Smith, an important patient, to the ambulance and quickly sent him to the emergency center of Bevi Hospital.

In the emergency room of the hospital, the electrocardiogram next to the bed showed an intermittent horizontal line, and the doctor on the side nervously picked up a defibrillator and placed it on Smith's chest, his condition was critical.

At this time, Smith felt the noise of the outside world and the pain in his body, and for a while his consciousness seemed to break free from his body and float into the air, looking at himself lying on the hospital bed.

He finally had a brief near-death experience.

Then the doctor failed, and the person in charge told Elsa and Smith's family: "The patient has been diagnosed with bacterial meningitis. The fatality rate reaches 90%, and even if you can survive, you will have serious sequelae, and even become a vegetative person. ”

"It won't be like this! Aren't you the best hospital in all of New York City? You'll have a way to cure Smith, and if you want billions of dollars, please ask! ”

An important member of Smith's family was pleading with the doctors, but the doctors shook their heads and said they couldn't do anything.

At this moment, several mysterious figures appeared in the patient's ward, and Marduk promised in front of the family that he would do everything in his power to save the head of the Rothschild family, Mr. Smith.

The maid, Elsa, continued to comfort Smith's wife and other relatives until Smith was taken to the emergency operating room by Professor Parker and his party, and they were at peace, waiting for Smith to reappear in front of them in a healthy state.

In the operating room, blood from the blood vessels flowed into Smith's body drop by drop. Professor Parker delicately manipulated the surgical robotic arm and gradually implanted a biochip the size of a fingernail into Smith's brain pineal gland, while Brian and Pan Tianyi on the side were nervously learning and operating.

"The ECG shows a normal heartbeat."

"The patient's lungs are breathing normally."

"Normal blood pressure ......"

After five or six hours, the brain-chip implant was over. Professor Parker and his students finally stopped their nerves and began to walk into the special room to rest.

Two days later, Smith woke up in the hospital room, and looking at Elsa's relieved smile and his wife's tears of joy, he seemed to have a short dream that seemed to be real and imaginary, and he could no longer remember the scene in the dream.

In a trance, a soft voice of a young woman came from his mind. There seemed to be an irresistible magic to that sound.
