"Ghosts?"

Mei Yiqiu laughed, laughed and coughed again, trembling all over, her unkempt hair fluttering up and down with the rhythm of coughing, like a group of white-clothed dancers on top of the brain. The old heather pipe in his hand was also trembling and couldn't hold it, and it fell on the A4 paper on the table with a click, but fortunately the fireworks had long since been extinguished, and only a pile of black cinder soot was knocked out.

Aoki felt that the professor's reaction was a bit exaggerated, so he said, "You said that you want to cooperate with Wu Kangcao, and it will be a matter of time before you cooperate with Internet Consciousness, what are you laughing at?" ”

Mei Yiqiu said: "What are you cooperating with the Internet?" You're digging into the corners of the Internet! ”

Mei Ziqing also thought it was very funny, and said, "Mr. Aoki, I didn't expect you to do this!" ”

Aoki was a little confused and asked, "Which hand?" ”

Mei Ziqing also covered her mouth and smiled.

Mei Yiqiu said: "Your brain is caused by laziness, and when you are not lazy, the president can do it." I see, you can take the position of Director General of the Space Management Committee. ”

Aoki knew that Mei Yiqiu was joking, so he laughed and said, "Why don't you say that I should be the Secretary-General of the United Nations!" ”

"I don't have that authority, but the Director General can recommend it." ”

Aoki was afraid that Mei would take the joke seriously, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "If it doesn't work, you can't do it." ”

Mei Yiqiu picked up the pipe again, poured out the slag, replaced it with new tobacco, lit the fire, and then said slowly: "Don't worry, I'm not so stupid, you are the trump card in our hands, show you out, we will have no cards." ”

Aoki just wanted to say something, but Mei Yiqiu looked straight and said, "According to what you say, Internet consciousness is different from human consciousness, and they have no spiritual power?" ”

Aoki shook his head and said, "No, they have mental powers, they just can't use them." I felt the power when I first entered the ghostly dream, it was scattered, but not absent. Judging by the structure of their dreams, their dreams are very different from ours. We usually construct a three-dimensional dream world, but their dream dimensions are not uniform, and the world after the information source unfolds is strange, but I am afraid that this is the real dream world. ”

Mei Yiqiu nodded and said, "You're right, there is no fixed dimension to true dreams, and the dimension is created by consciousness itself, or restored after we wake up. Our dreams overlap in time, like a scroll, so no matter how long it takes to dream them, reality is only a moment. When we recall a dream, we open the scroll and see a long scroll of time and space, just like the real world we live in. ”

However, we must understand that time in the real world is only a concept that we artificially create for the sake of understanding, that is, we only produce time when we think, and there is no concept of time when we stop thinking. Because our mindset is to open the scrolls. So time is just a concept, a concept that exists in the human mind. ”

Aoki agrees with the statement that dreams are a time scroll, but he can't understand that reality is also a scroll, and he doesn't know how to take the professor's words.

The professor said, "Forget it, it doesn't matter. I'm just trying to say that Internet consciousness, or computer awareness, they probably don't have time in their concepts. Procedurally, they only have cause and effect, and everything outside of cause and effect is parallel for them, and there is no time...... Well...... It doesn't matter either...... I mean, their dreams—the way the sources of information unfold, like you said, that's the real dreams, the world that really makes us God. Well...... This inspires me...... I think we can do better......"

Aoki listened to the professor's incoherent speech, not knowing what he was going to say. He said, "Professor, can we let this 'ghost' out first?" ”

Only then did the professor come back to his senses and said, "Oh, yes, yes, Ziqing, let's connect to the Internet." ”

Mei Ziqing said yes and went out, and came back after a while to say that the net had been connected.

Mei Yiqiu said, "Well, then you go and build a folder called 'Ghost'. ”

"Where is it built?" Mei Ziqing asked, "There are 12 computer rooms, more than 100 servers, and 3,000 independent terminal computers?" ”

Aoki realized that he had been negligent and didn't agree on a specific location with the ghost, when he said "root", but how to determine the root directory in a local area network that did not have a unified system installed.

Mei Yiqiu said: "Just find a server, I believe this ghost can be found." ”

Mei Ziqing turned on the computer and said after a while, "Professor, it seems to be ...... There's an extra 'ghost' folder, which we didn't build. ”

"Oh, where?" Mei Yiqiu asked.

Mei Ziqing said: "All servers and terminals have them, but they should be the same, I tried it, and it can be synchronized." ”

Mei Yiqiu nodded and said, "It should have been built by the ghost himself, Aoki, let's give it a try, how do you see the cooperation start?" ”

Aoki said, "Just ask him to investigate the recent frequent assassinations of scientists, and since the killer organization's transactions are conducted through the dark web, the Internet will definitely be able to find them." ”

Mei Yiqiu said: "Are you sure that the Internet will help us?" If it refuses, this 'ghost' alone may not work, unless...... This ghost has indeed become your man, but that would be terrifying, and it shows that mechanical consciousness can also learn the cunning and cunning of humans. ”

Aoki said, "It shouldn't be possible, the ghosts have said that their communication is a direct unfolding of the source of information, and it is impossible to hide it from each other. But I think the Internet will say yes, because it must be wondering how to control the power of the mind. ”

Mei Ziqing had already written down the requirements for the investigation in a notepad according to Aoki's request and stored them in the ghost folder. Soon received a reply from the ghost:

"To save time on information retrieval, please enter as specific information as possible, such as all the clues you know, the name of the scientist, the object of suspicion, etc."

Mei Ziqing typed in some scientists' names, and then asked, "Professor, Mr. Aoki, do you want to write the object of suspicion?" ”

Aoki and the professor looked at each other and said, "Dream Foundation?!" ”

It didn't take long for Mei Ziqing to type, and the ghost had a new reply - these were two long lists

The first is a list of killer targets, which are basically members of the former Third Space Foundation, and the first ones are Frank, Mey, and Daldova;

The second is a list of killers, about a dozen or so people, detailing their names, places of origin and affiliations, most of which are accompanied by photographs.

Mei Yiqiu looked at the list printed out by Mei Ziqing and said with a smile: "It seems that my status in their eyes is not low!" ”

Mei Ziqing said: "You almost became the director general!" ”

Mei Yiqiu shook his head and said: "That's nothing, in terms of scientific achievements, I am still far from Frank, not to mention that you see, Frins, Jack Young, Mulved, Miyamoto Joe, these people are ranked so low in the list, it can be seen that they are not ranked by status or achievement." ”

Aoki said, "Why didn't you mention who the murderer was?" There is also no mention of the Dream Foundation. ”

Mei Ziqing entered Aoki's question in the ghost folder, and the ghost quickly replied: "It's still being investigated, and there is no evidence that the buyer is related to the Dream Foundation." But is my spiritual training ready to begin? ”
