Chapter 12 Puzzle Clearing
"Why help me?" The man in black asked as he stared at Vito without blinking, his face pale and his gaze grim in the light of the emergency light.
"I'm afraid they'll mistake us for accomplices." Now in his own home, the fear in Vito's heart is not so strong, he has no intention of hiding his thoughts, and tells the other party very bluntly.
The face that looked very similar to Yang Qin grinned: "That's right, it's self-help, I didn't expect this layer, you are very smart." ”
He raised his head and looked around at the room that belonged to Vito and said, "This is your home?" ”
Vito nodded, no squeak.
"How dare you lead me into your home?"
"I helped you, you shouldn't expose me." This is what Vito really thinks in his heart.
The man in black shook his head: "That's not what I'm talking about, don't you know that your rooms have surveillance equipment?" The cultural administrator of the unit building is always watching you. ”
When Vito heard this, he was immediately stunned, his eyes widened, his face was cloudy, and his heart became a pot of porridge: There is surveillance, isn't everything he has done in the past two days seen by the cultural administrator? But why didn't he come to him?
Seeing Vito's flustered expression, the man in black seemed to have guessed something, and he asked expressionlessly, "Did you do something forbidden?" ”
Vito didn't answer his words, but his expression betrayed himself.
"What's your name?" The man in black suddenly changed his question.
"Vito 1000." He replied subconsciously.
The man in black nodded and continued, "Let's talk about it, maybe I can solve some questions for you, I still have about two hours, and it will take so long for them to fix the system." ”
Hearing his words, Vito guessed that he must be a natural person, a natural person like Yang Qin, and maybe there was some kind of connection between them.
Vito now has a strong urge to inquire, because there is so much confusion buried in his heart.
"I looked at some forbidden stuff in my room."
"What's that?"
Vito motioned for him to follow him, led him into his bedroom, and then took the leaflet out of the bathroom and handed it to him.
"This."
The man in black took it in his hand and looked at it, and the corners of his mouth showed a mischievous smile: "You picked it up?" ”
Vito nodded.
"Why don't you give it to the cultural administrator?"
"I only picked it up in the afternoon, and I haven't had time to hand it over yet." Vito didn't say what he thought this time.
The man in black took the leaflet in his hand, looked at it over and over again, and asked with a smile, "What do you think after reading it?" ”
Vito didn't answer his question, a question flashed in his mind, and he opened his mouth to ask, "You wrote this thing?" ”
The man in black shook his head: "No, my brother wrote it." ”
"Your name is Yang Zheng, and your brother's name is Yang Qin?" Vito burst into voicing his conjecture.
The man in black looked up at Vito in surprise: "How do you know?" There was a wariness in his tone.
"I'm a file management programmer at the Donghu City-State Police Headquarters, and I've seen all your brother's materials today, and you look alike."
"Oh." Yang Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and let down his guard.
"You just said that we are all being monitored, where is the surveillance?" Vito was very worried about this issue.
"The wireless phone at the door is the monitoring device, it can use sound wave imaging, and the administrator can see everything in your room through it, but if you don't usually have excessive violations, the cultural administrator will not turn on the whole process of monitoring, after all, they have a limited number of people, and it is impossible to monitor so many people at the same time."
"In other words, what I did before has not aroused their suspicion."
"It's understandable, you're smart." Yang Zheng glanced at him, folded the white paper, and put it into his pocket: "I'll take this away, it's no good for you to keep it." ”
Vito nodded, he had written down all the contents, there was really no need to keep them, so there was no obstruction, he had been hesitating whether he should say the doubts in his heart, after all, these questions were now bothering him and could not be at peace.
"What do you mean you have two hours left?"
Yang Zheng smiled and pouted at the lamp on the roof: "It's okay to tell you, is this blackout, I did it, I used the fiber worm conductor to invade all the incoming power supplies in the seventh district, and it will take them at least two hours to repair, so your room is also safe at the moment." ”
"In other words, you're still going to stay with me for a while."
"Yes, but if anything is inconvenient, I can leave." Yang Zheng looked calm and authentic.
"No, I didn't mean that, but I have a few questions for you, and if time permits, and you know the answers, please clear them up for me."
"I know everything." Yang Zheng did not hesitate at all. Vito lowered his head and sorted out his thoughts, because time was limited, he had to pick up the key points to ask.
"The first question is, what is the difference between me and you, that is, what is the difference between natural and synthetic people." Vito was afraid that he wouldn't understand what he meant, so he asked very clearly.
Yang Zheng was surprised once again when he heard him suddenly ask this question, he didn't expect that the synthesizer in front of him would actually ask the point of the question with one mouth, he looked Vito up and down, and asked, "Do you notice anything abnormal in your body?" ”
Vito shook his head: "No, it's just that I'm confused by some of the provisions of the code that restrict people like us, such as the right to marry. ”
"The right to marry, do you know what the right to marry means?" Yang Zheng asked solemnly.
"Know one thing, it is to love each other, form a family, physically unite, have children, and live together." Vito was succinct in his words.
Yang Zheng has already been impressed by this synthesizer Vito 1000 from his heart, he doesn't know why this person understands this, but he can be sure that this Vito 1000 is completely different from other synths, but he has his concerns, he doesn't know if he can accept it once he tells the other party the truth, and what kind of mental state will he be in the future.
"Vito, before I tell you the truth, I want to remind you that the reality is very cruel, and knowing it is not necessarily a good thing, it takes courage, so are you sure you want to know this?" Yang Zheng was also greatly surprised that he took such care of the other party's thoughts, which was contrary to the purpose of his constant call.
Do I have compassion for him? He asked himself in his mind.
"I'm not as fragile as you think, as a human being, whether I'm a synthetic person or a natural person, big enough for the world, small for me personally, I have the right to know, I should know the truth of all this, please help me." The solver* jumped in his heart, chaos and confusion had been bothering him for too long, and he wanted to follow the guidance of his mind to explore this blinded world.
Vito's earnest attitude touched Yang Zheng, and he nodded gloomily: "Let me explain all this for you." ”
He lowered his head and muttered for a while, as if thinking about how to speak, when he raised his head, looked at Vito with an extremely serious expression and said: "Wisdom is like Alfred, he gathered and referred to all the research results of the sages for hundreds of years, established his own laboratory, after tens of thousands of failures, he successfully solved the mystery of human genes, and on the basis of his research results, synthesized the first synthetic biochemical living person in human history with biochemical refining substances, he is a male, With a full life and his own name, Alfred named him Austin, and during the five years he lived in this world, Alfred was by his side every day, at first to obtain his research data, but later, they became friends who talked about everything, and finally Alfred buried Austin with a sad heart, and he released his research results to the world, a research result that would change the course of human history, It is also powerful enough to detonate the attention of people all over the world, it is the greatest invention of human bioengineering, and Alfred has become the ancestor of synthetic cyborgs. ”
But less than a year after he released his research results, the war for the global unification of the republic broke out, when the superpowers, all continents fought each other, the war was cruel and tragic, indescribable, the war lasted ten years, causing direct deaths of more than 1.5 billion people, and the number of deaths from disease, hunger, climate and other causes could not be counted, until the end of the war, after the reunification of the republic, according to statistics, the total population of the world was less than 2 billion, and a considerable part of them were old, weak, sick and disabled, As a result, there was a shortage of labor at that time, coupled with the rapid deterioration of the living environment, and the reproduction and continuation of human life were facing a fatal threat, so some people remembered Alfred's research results and wanted to use his research results to solve this biggest crisis, but these shrewd ruling classes considered the unpredictable consequences that may be brought about by the large-scale production of cyborgs, and they came up with a desperate plan, they asked researchers to study and control the secretion of gonadotropins from the pituitary gland, and control the secretion of prostate, seminal vesicles, bulbourethral glands, and accessory gonads* Functional methods, and then carried out a series of experiments, and finally successfully synthesized a biochemical living person with no sexual function and infertility, and then they studied female biochemical people, and the same principle, researchers developed a method to control the secretion of sex hormones and eggs by female ovaries. ”
"So with the support and guarantee of these cutting-edge technologies, the Senate began to implement a large-scale biochemical creation plan, building a brood in each city-state to create biochemical humans, and at the same time formulating strict and even harsh laws and regulations to restrict and manage the production of synthetic biochemical humans, after nearly seventy years of large-scale production, cyborgs have surpassed natural people, and the world is close to three billion..."
When Yang Zheng saw Vito's eyes turn from red to red, he didn't dare to say any more, he didn't know if the person in front of him would go crazy if he continued to talk about it.
Vito leaned against the wall, his whole body trembling violently, the flames of anger burning in his chest, he felt that he could not breathe, his legs could no longer support the weight of his body, and finally he slowly slid down the wall to the ground, collapsed, hissing "uh-uh" in his throat, but he couldn't form a complete sentence.
