Whether Murong Yuhua is alive or not, Gu San has indeed thought about this question, she actually knows that Sky City is by no means a good city-state, it seems that it abides by the rules, is extremely civilized, and tries its best to develop science and technology, but in the final analysis, what they follow is still the rule of the jungle, there are high and low, and they will obviously show their greedy tongue in the face of the more fragile Wen.

Arrogance, prejudice, and rudeness are everywhere in this seemingly civilized city.

So if someone asked her if Murong Yuhua would die, Gu San thought that he would die, but there was one thing that had always supported her to find the present - she believed in Murong's genius, and even more so that with the greed of Sky City, she would never let go of such an invention and wisdom at her fingertips so easily.

He will be tortured, this is inevitable, and Sky City will definitely find a way to blow up the last bit of his usefulness.

"If you're just trying to tell me something like the obvious, I don't think you need to talk in vain." Gu San's expression did not change because of Suzaku's words, "I want to see people alive, and I want to see corpses when I die, even if he is killed by you, I will find Sky City." ”

Suzaku sneered: "You are persistent." ”

"Besides, I don't believe you're going to kill him so quickly, and from my brief contact with you, I know the choice you've made in the end." Gu San looked at Suzaku calmly, "No matter how disgusted you are for the choice Murong made against the will of your heart, no matter how much you hate the group of people he brought up to rebel against your rule. But at the end of the day, you know very well that under your level of technology, there is no way to find a second person who can do everything you can't do in such a short period of time like Murong. ”

"You're gambling."

"The bet is without 100% certainty. I don't bet anymore. "I can be sure that you will not let me down. ”

Suzaku shook his head: "This confidence of yours is actually ridiculous. Everything will change, and so will the city in the sky. From the universe to the cells, things are always changing. You used to think that the city in the sky was just an incomparably sophisticated instrument, without emotion, and arrogant, but after the war, they would choose a different path. ”

Gu San looked at her puzzled: "Then what do you want to tell me?" Tell me that Sky City has changed, it is no longer hostile to me, and is willing to exchange Murong Yuhua back? ”

"What are you thinking?" Suzaku said contemptuously, "How could we possibly give up the chips we got in hand?" ”

"Isn't that all there is to it?" Gu San pulled out the gun again, and the ten minutes were coming quickly, and she had long been impatient, "Finally, I'll give you some more time to tell me your intentions, I'm not interested in talking to you anymore." ”

"I'm here to tell you everything about Murong."

"Are you that kind?"

"Of course not. But there are some things that we may only have to ask for your help - oh no, it's not help, for you, Murong's life is all that matters, and you will want to save him, no matter what happens. ”

"Then you're wrong. While I do want to save him in most cases, if something happens irreversibly, I know it's time to give up, and just because sticking to something doesn't mean it's going to end well. ”

Suzaku took out a mobile chip from his palm and threw it into Gu San's hand: "Then it seems that this decision can indeed only be made by yourself." ”

Gu San took it, and she suspiciously plugged the chip into her handheld computer. Suzaku stood aside and said to her, "Actually, you didn't guess wrong at the beginning, it was Sky City that planned to bring Murong Yuhua back. Your next judgment is also right, among so many generations in Sky City, there is almost no second genius guy like Murong Yuhua, he has the ability to solve problems with his own vision, and he can always create something completely new with a different vision. This is an extremely scarce existence for the city in the sky. ”

Gu San listened to Suzaku's words while opening the video in the chip. In the video is a silent, dimly lit room. The room was covered with paper, and on the paper, there were some characters that Gu San couldn't understand.

Suzaku continued, "We have no way of believing that Murong Yuhua will remain loyal to Sky City, but we also can't just give up everything that Murong Yuhua has invented—and his greatest invention, without a doubt, is you. ”

The girl approached Gu San with a bit of obsession in her eyes.

"You can't be called human anymore, and there is no part of your body that resembles a human other than your brain and mind. But the soul ......," Suzaku's gaze slowly drifted away, "the human soul is the most ethereal thing, just like the 'personality' you often say. What exactly is a personality and what can be called a soul? I still don't understand why a being full of intelligence can't be called a soul. Over the years, we have also created AI with different personalities, some of them are extroverts and some of them are introverts. But when these were brought to Murong Yuhua, they could be identified immediately. He would immediately point out which one was a real human and which one was not. ”

Gu San never answered Suzaku's question, and she stared intently at the picture in the video. The whole room is closed and oppressive, and the only skylight hangs high on the roof. The walls were painted with one straight character after another, and the gray places on the walls were inexplicably stained with dark red blood.

The paper was like sand that almost buried the ground, and there were poems, equations, musical scores, and even some strange symbols. In the midst of the messy waste paper, a human figure bulged. Someone pushed open the door and walked in, still holding a gun in his hand, and the man who came was still wearing armor, and he kicked into the waste paper somewhat roughly, and from under the pair of papers, a man staggered and fell out in confusion.

"Wake up."

The moment Gu San saw that person, his pupils contracted slightly. The person in the picture is already skinny, and his beard seems to have never been properly cared for. He fell out of bed like a dead man, but the moment he hit the ground, he could see his breath blowing the paper.

He's alive.

The guard, however, looked panicked, and he sat down and tried to pull the man off the ground, slapping him in the face over and over again, and even trying to wake him up in a very rough way, but all was useless, and no matter what he did, the man kept his eyes closed.

Gu San didn't hesitate to raise her gun and head at Suzaku, she knew that doing so would not actually cause any substantial harm to the woman, but the moment she saw everything that happened in the picture, she still couldn't restrain her anger.

The bullet passed through the girl's body, leaving a scar on it, and Suzaku stood there indifferent, occasionally taking a few steps back from the shot.

Gu San suppressed his anger and gritted his teeth and asked, "What the hell have you done to him!" ”

"He's the leader of the rebels, and you should know that he's just going through everything he deserves. Do you still expect the city in the sky to take good care of him? Stop dreaming. Suzaku shrugged, "Of course, we were the first to have the court try him for life imprisonment, and most importantly—we listed all the punishments that could be inflicted on him. You have to do this, we can't afford to take on some other rebels. ”

Gu San shot her in the eye again: "What I'm asking now is what exactly you did in this video." ”

"Your anger is a little inexplicable. You should have guessed what we were going to do to him. Suzaku didn't care about the injuries on her body at all, she didn't have the slightest fear, after all, this body was not one of her many carriers, "This situation is not caused by us, Gu San. All we want from beginning to end is everything in Murong Yuhua's brain. But he's really too smart, you know? It was his own choice, I don't know what he used, he closed his brain. ”

“…… You mean he did it himself? ”

"No one has been able to wake him up, and we are trying to use some other technological means to revive him, but Murong Yuhua seems to be determined not to let any of us spy on his mind. In fact, we were thinking at one point that we would dissect his body and dissect his body—thus using external technology to detach his mind from his body. ”

Gu San looked at them, and his gaze gradually became a little cold: "You guys are really a bunch of crazy people. ”

"Crazy? Then the man you're looking for seems even crazier than we are. Suzaku approached Gu San step by step with a bullet hole, "It wasn't until he completely closed his mind that we finally discovered that he, as a living person, had almost completely transformed himself into a non-human. He trapped his mind in that man-made body, and whenever we tried to get a peek into his mind, or we destroyed his body, the whole process would have a chain reaction, and he would destroy everything in his mind on his own. It's like a safe, if someone moves a little, the bomb will explode suddenly. ”

"I see." Gu San pulled the chip off the handheld computer and threw it to Suzaku, "Since this is his choice, I will respect it." You should study it. Maybe one day you'll figure it out? I obviously don't know anything about these programs. ”

"But have you ever thought about what kind of changes we can bring to human society if we can really see through everything Murong Yuhua left behind?" Suzaku said urgently, "The social structure we are accustomed to today, everything we see today, will eventually disappear, be banned, erased, replaced by a more vital system, and be continued by a new population, and this population, obviously, is what Murong Yuhua is trying now, is a combination of artificial humans and humans." ”

Gu San began to pack his things. Suzaku followed closely behind her: "No matter how dirty we are using today, after thousands of years, everyone will be grateful to us." Just as the starry sky we see now is a shining light billions of light-years away, what future generations can see may be nothing more than the struggle and blood and tears we have left behind, and from the good point of view, no matter how dirty we have spurned. Time is always left to future generations with a filter. ”

She watched Gu San step into the car without hesitation.

"Even if it's the image of one of us through the filter of our tongue."
