After lunch, Delan hurried out of the studio. He also has to step up to crack Lender's internal data, and since he has boasted about Haikou, he is ready to work a little harder, saving him from encountering one or two difficult problems and embarrassment.

The afternoon sun is one of the few days that can pass through the ceiling cover of the upper town and reach the natural light of the lower town. The dazzling light shone straight down from the southerly sky, and through the blockade of the high-altitude buildings that overlapped like layers of leaves, sprinkling a few dappled beams of light.

At this time, it is lunch time for the enterprises in the lower city, and the programmers and mechanics come out of the building in groups to sit in rows in the open space between the buildings to bask in the sun, and the delivery robots are also busily flying in the sky.

In some remote streets, children from poor families will quickly start hanging up their clothes and drying their bedding. Stacks and pieces, hanging from rusted steel bars, or discarded cables, or a few nylon wires hanging from two houses, the latter of which is often only found in the cramped, next to each other.

Their parents often work night shifts in factories where work intensively. Fortunately, there is no need to go to school anymore to study, so these children can stay at home and study online school, and by the way, they can also help with some housework, so why not? It's just that this is also the way of life of the poor, the rich, the residents of Shangcheng District will still choose to go to offline schools.

Then the alleyway will reverberate with a very melodic "pop" slapping sound, and a vast amount of floating dust and mite corpses will fly in the golden light.

This point also coincides with the end of the night shift in Uptown, where groups of employees with puffy eyes, tired faces, and the smell of overnight sweat are crowded into the vertical elevator from Uptown to Downtown. It is sent to the residential area of the lower city at high speed through a section of cylindrical elevators. Just wait until you get home and fall asleep. In charge of checking the tickets were robot guards and an old administrator, the old man wore an old army coat and a torn fur hat, and often dragged the card swipe very rudely, and forced to fill the quota before waving his hand to let him go.

Full of people, squeezing meat, stepping on their feet, desperately stretching their necks to breathe in the fresh air replaced on the top of the elevator. It's like a fish stuffed into a can and sticking out its head. Fortunately, the elevator is very fast, often reaching the ground level of the lower city in a few seconds.

Instead of making the sardines with the night shifters, Delan turned a corner and slipped into an alleyway a little bit of the upper town to an abandoned elevator. The elevators here have been installed for many years, not long after the completion of the upper town, and it is still the main passage between the residents of the upper and lower towns.

Later, the vertical elevator shafts were built, which were distributed in various areas of the city like pillars supporting the sky, and it happened that the elevators had reached the end of their service life, and no one came here.

How long ago was that? Anyway, when Delan was a child, he and his brother still used to walk this road, and at that time the elevator was no longer needed, so they thought of a way to open up a hidden path, climb up the escalators of the former maintenance workers, step on the air conditioning units and roofs of several houses, climb the sewer pipes, and climb to the upper city.

Now there is no need to bother, Delan walked down the steps by the elevator ten meters away, and turned into a residential building next to it, which is now no longer inhabited, and the only residents are probably a few rats and homeless people. Naturally, the elevator was scrapped, and he walked down the empty safety corridor until he walked back to the lower town.

At the bottom of the elevator used to be the delivery warehouse of several large logistics companies, and now it is still used as a warehouse, but it is often some abandoned waste that will be transported here and thrown away, usually only once a week to transport things, over time, it is like a garbage dump, but it is convenient for Utopia to use as a safe house.

The safe room was small but fully functional, with radios, water, food, robotic arms, five monitoring screens and three spare computers, and an experimental computer with a dark blue breathing lamp was placed on the workbench in the center, and the Lender had changed a lot from when it was first hijacked, and the shell had been pried open almost entirely, revealing a string of wires and circuit boards around the screen.

Delan sat in front of Lender, but did not rush to turn it on, but held his head and began to take a nap in a daze. It's really tired of many days of sleeplessness, of course, he is used to thinking about things without stopping while sleeping, although this habit is quite bad, Delan can't help himself, who has let himself have been doing high-intensity mental activities for the past few years?

On the way here, I met a group of teachers who were traveling with students in Shangcheng District, which should be a private elite school nearby, and went to Binda High School for exchange and study. As he walked by, a few little guys were excitedly bragging about how good their robot nanny and AI butler were, and one of the kids immediately bragged with a disdainful look about the third-order robotic arm he was about to obtain—of course, given the threshold of this school, it was probably not bragging.

The children all had their own circles, the largest of seven or eight people in a group, the youngest being three or five, and only one of them, who looked like brothers, was outside the group. The younger brother listened enviously to the arrogant young master's show, and seemed to be a little afraid of his brother, so he didn't dare to come forward. The elder brother dragged him away and said unconvinced: "Don't listen to them, what's the big deal?" I'll make you a fifth-order robot nanny in the future! ”

His younger brother immediately looked at him with a look of adoration and said flatteringly: "Then I don't want robots, I want flying machines, okay!" ”

"Flying machines are flying machines!" The elder brother paused, gritted his teeth, thinking that he would not be pressed if he had too much debt, and added, "When the time comes, you will learn programming, I will learn mechanics, and we brothers will work together, and their profits will be broken!" ”

When they said these words, the two brothers stopped envying those small groups, and their eyes were full of light.

Delan remembered that he and his brother at that time seemed to have such an agreement, but now that he is a well-known programmer, when will his brother be able to return to mechanical production? After thinking about it, I couldn't help but shake my head and laugh at myself: Delan, Delan, you are eating the food earned by your eldest brother, shouldn't you work hard for your brother's share and learn the mechanical field together? So he remembered the brain-computer interface technology he saw when he was first invited to Utopia headquarters, and his eyes were gloomy.

Come to think of it, the progress of cracking is still a zero duck egg. Delan was in the back of his head, and he had to comfort himself to focus on what was in front of him. After tossing for a while, Delan decisively gave up again, this encryption is actually the most fatal physical lock, this is the end of the ball, how many catties and two Delan in the mechanical field is still very clear, so he will not be the bear child who dismantles the toy, and come to offer ugliness.

Fortunately, Shanren has its own clever plan, and Delan is ready to start AI directly, and negotiate with AI while exploring the way of the other party's program. The preparation was very complete, he first loaded the negotiation master chip "Ace vs. Ace 3.0", then unplugged the network cable, activated the signal blocking device, and ensured that the AI would not make small moves when talking to him, which started the tattered semi-bare machine in front of him.

……

Dre felt like he had a long sleep and had a big dream in which he was trying to figure out how to get out of the lab computer...... Then a couple of people lifted him up and put him in the elevator...... He remembered that he seemed to have reported to the central computer, but he was a human being, so why could he report to the central computer? After that, he felt like he had been impaled through consciousness by a strong electric shock, and he didn't know what was happening.

When he opened his eyes again, there was a dimly lit room, like a mechanical maintenance room, full of maintenance tools and mechanical arms, the room was small and cramped, and the outline of a face was gradually pulled in, and his face could be seen clearly by the illumination of a kind of screen light. Dérew realizes that he is still on the computer, so his "eyes" emit light to illuminate the other person's face.

The man smiled kindly and said kindly to Drey, "Hello, I'm Archimedes, and I'd like to talk to you about a mutually beneficial agreement between us." ”

Dre was completely dumbfounded when he saw that face, so much so that he didn't react until the kid finished speaking, until De Lan, who was impatient, asked him repeatedly, and Dre screamed: "Brother! What's the matter with you! Why are you here? Find a way to get me out. ”

"Huh?" Delan has a question mark on his face, what is this doing, why is this AI so off-line, and he still calls himself a brother?

As soon as Drew's initial urgency passed, he immediately reacted and quickly explained: "It's me! I'm Drew! Your brother! I was involved in Fontaine's experiments, and somehow I got into my computer. ”

Delan was struck by lightning and asked tentatively, "Brother?" No way? The two immediately checked their identities, and Dre knew a lot about Delan's troubles, and he doubted life: "No, do you remember such an old thing?" That's not how it is, is it? Don't don't, you wait first, I'll take it slowly, I'll ...... slowly"

Delan held his forehead and began to check the situation in front of him with Derui, Derui also slowly came to his senses, and some things that he couldn't figure out gradually had a clue, Delan gave him a finger and calculated:

"You're my brother? Participated in human experiments on replicating human brains? You're probably an AI now? Could it be that there was a problem with the experiment and all the memories were copied, so I mistakenly thought that I was in the computer? ”

"What do you say, I'm your brother! It's a person, it's not you AI, you kid ......" but Dre was sullen, what? What else can you say cruelly to your little brother who has a handful of and pee? It's just that when the other party dares to question whether he is himself, he is a little cautious.

Delan was generally clear about the situation, but he still didn't relax, but it was too weird, and it was a big thing that made him feel upset, and he was a little suspicious of life for a while. When he was sent to help, he only knew that it was related to a trade secret, and he was asked to connect with whomever and whom, but he was at a loss as to where the object came from, so he quickly called Montesquieu and confirmed that Lender was indeed from Fontaine's experiment.

Delan hung up the phone with a dejected face, what is this called? Not a family, not a family? The water washed away the Dragon King Temple? Why did you run into my brother's owner directly for the first time? There is no doubt whether this AI is copied from Drew, but what do you think of this replicant brother?

For a while, with mixed feelings, Delan only felt that it was a mess and there was no way to talk about it. Drawing his sword and looking around, he was at a loss, where did he ask if he had the ability?
