I HAVE TO SAY THAT QI MIN IS PLAYING VERY HIGH IN THE BRAIN-LIKE VIRTUAL WORLD. Although Mimi's existing build was something she couldn't touch, and even after Mimi left, she didn't get the full permission to modify it, Qi Min just picked up bullets and hit zombies and knocked over the window by the way, and played for a long time.

She found that in the brain-like world, she didn't seem to feel tired at all, and she didn't experience any physical decline. After participating in two fake celebrations about "winning the National Science and Technology Progress Award" in a row, Qi Min finally felt that he should find a way to get out.

And it seems like a real problem. Qi Min had only seen from the experience of cynomolgus monkey experiments before, and the second consciousness that entered the brain-like body should be able to go out automatically after a few hours. But she hasn't found a way to leave the brain-like body now, and it is obviously easy to make psychological hints to Mimi, but Qi Min is an adult with a stable world view and strong logical thinking ability, and it is generally difficult for this kind of person to be deceived, and of course, it is even more difficult to deceive herself.

After trying to psychologically suggest himself four times in a row, Qi Min finally thought that maybe he should try something else.

The first thing she thought of was a way to run in one direction like in "Rick and Morty" so that the scene didn't have time to generate. The storage space of the brain-like body is limited, and according to this conjecture, if she keeps running in one direction and the data that generates new scenes overflows too much, maybe she will be able to wake up from the brain-like body.

So Qi Min picked up the gun and started running out. It didn't take much effort for her to run out of the outermost circle of the blue-purple building, but there was no clear boundary outside the circle, but a vast expanse of sand.

There is nothing special about this sandy land, it is all exactly the same as the eye can see. Qi Min realized that if the automatically generated scenes were like this, then even if she ran to death, she would not be able to rely on this to blow up the "Nimbus" supercomputer.

However, Qi Min also thought that since she had left Mimi's original construction range, the degree of freedom here might be greater. In the newly generated scene, maybe there will be new buildings as well?

As she thought about it, she ran when she saw an oasis in the distance. When he got closer, Qi Min found that there was a small clear lake there, with a large clump of reeds growing on the edge of the lake and lush grass growing around. Behind the reeds is a clean and beautiful wooden villa, and there is a large date forest behind the villa.

It's such a great place to rest. Qi Min's previous subconscious scenes were inevitably exaggerated, and at this time, he should indeed change his style to level out his aesthetics. Although her consciousness did not seem to be tired, Qi Min entered the wooden house generated by her consciousness, put down her gun and took off her jacket, jeans, and hiking boots.

There was a large bed covered with a sheepskin blanket in the bedroom of the wooden house, and Qi Min lay down on the bed, thinking that he would sleep for a while before thinking about how to leave the brain-like body.

——

In his sleep, Qi Min seemed to hear someone crying.

She wanted to open her eyes to see who it was, but she felt so tired that she didn't even have the strength to open them. In an instant, Qi Min understood that she was no longer in the brain-like body.

A wave of ecstasy struck again, and Qi Min couldn't wait to make the brain-like virtual world public in the real world, as if the real scientific and technological progress award and the real TENURE were beckoning to her......

Qi Min tried her best to open her eyes, but saw Anton lying next to her bed - he seemed to be crying? What is there to cry about, Qi Min wants to tell him what she sees in the brain-like body, and she will soon take him to see it, fight zombies in the world built by their daughter, and go to her awards ceremony - the highlight of her life. It's really not that she's arrogant, it's really luck that can't stop it!

And yet she seems to be ...... Can't move?

Qi Min tried hard to sit up, but it was as if she had forgotten how to exert herself, even though she had thought about this simple action dozens of times, her back and leg muscles still did not move.

She heard the people around her say that she was awake, and she heard Anton call her name in surprise, but she couldn't move - when she could successfully pretend to be X with one sentence, she suddenly couldn't open her mouth, which is really fatal!

Qi Min closed her eyes again, and when she opened them again, she seemed to recover instantly.

She sat up from the hospital bed, pulled the chip from her head, and hugged Anton in front of her, who was crying with joy.

"I discovered a new world." She whispered in Anton's ear, "Really, I'll show you later." ”

"Min, you're too strong, you're so strong." Anton said excitedly, letting go of her and kissing her cheeks and lips.

Qi Min held his head and kissed him deeply, and he accidentally swept over the glass window opposite, but was surprised to see that he was wearing a hospital gown on the window, as well as the long hair he had before.

She realized that something was wrong, that her hair had been shaved off before she could be connected to the brain-like body in order to facilitate the installation of the callosum interface, and that the "Nimbus" center was not a hospital and could not have a hospital gown for her to change.

Qi Min let go of the "Anton" she imagined, lay back on the hospital bed and closed her eyes.

The feeling of exhaustion and powerlessness returned, and Qi Min struggled to open his eyes again, and finally saw the real Anton - and the real Ke Li, Ms. Zhou Xiaoshan, and the company's technicians.

She finally really woke up.

——

When Qi Min was unconscious, everyone who was involved in this matter was called. Since this was a relatively serious experimental accident, even the laboratory building in the "Nimbus" center was temporarily closed, but the news was suppressed and not released, for fear of attracting greater attention and making things more chaotic.

Because Qi Min's emergency contact number was the old mobile phone number she used for Anton, Qi Min's parents were not notified. The Chinese Technical University did not rush to notify for the time being, and it turned out to be correct.

Soon after Anton arrived at the lab, Mimi, who had been initially connected to the brain-like body, woke up. The little girl didn't seem to be fine, she was in a normal mental state, but as soon as she woke up, she dragged her father and told her that she had a dream that her mother had come to save her by beating monsters with a gun......

The more she said that, the more it made Anton feel uncomfortable. He couldn't help but feel that he was too harsh on Qi Min when Mimi fell from the building, which caused her to risk her life for Mimi now.

Although Mimi's fall from the building or being connected to the brain-like body is indeed Qi Min's fault for poor care, whether it is from the objective benefit maximization or subjective feelings, it is irrational for Qi Min to risk his life to correct this mistake. If she really chose to save Mimi by risking herself this time because of the accident last time and Anton's resolute attitude, it would inevitably make Anton feel that he had harmed Qi Min.

In fact, even if he was angry again, he never thought of letting Qi Min exchange legs for legs and life for life. Even from a certain politically incorrect point of view, it can be said that Qi Min's individual value is higher than that of Mimi—objectively speaking, a healthy and highly educated adult in his youth is indeed more valuable to society than a child—even though Mimi is his daughter, Anton never wants to deny this.

Qi Min was able to wake up, making him feel that no matter how much he had to pay for it, it was worth it.
