“…… Yesterday, the First Academy of Sciences of the League gave a closed or warning punishment to three researchers who violated the rules to carry out human experiments, and it is reported that the three scientists tried to cultivate a cloned human embryo, which violated the Memorandum of Understanding on the Control of the Harmful Science Act between the League and the Privy Council...... The internal website of the Academy of Sciences of the Alliance once again issued an article, calling on all researchers to keep in mind their mission and refrain from acts harmful to human beings. ”
—League Weekend, May 2, 2177.

"Jeunse!"
Located at the Arlington Confederate outpost, even when the clock hand pointed to 10:30 p.m., it was still noisy.
However, I don't know if it was deliberate, the alliance avoided Arlington Cemetery, which has a large open space, when setting up its headquarters, and mainly concentrated on the town of Arlington in the west, although it seems a little crowded, but it is barely enough as a temporary base, anyway, everyone knows that this liberation operation will not last long.
Jeunse. Miele had just handed the notebook back to the troops who had withdrawn from the front line -- the battle for Washington was far less easy than the reporters had described, with large numbers of ACA soldiers putting life and death aside to set up ambushes everywhere they could, and while Allied troops had moved into the city, large swaths of residential areas north from Liberty Avenue had yet to be cleared.
Jeunse waited for some time for the unit to return, and when the hour hand pointed to nine o'clock in the evening, she finally waited for the notebook's owner's comrades—fortunately, this time there were only two seriously wounded, and neither of them was in danger of life.
In saying goodbye to these smoky and bloodstained bodies. After the exhausted soldiers, Jeunse did not immediately return to the command vehicle, nor did she go back to the hospital, and like Linya, Jeunese never came to Washington, D.C., standing outside the walls of Arlington Cemetery. Looking east, it was in the direction of the Victory Monument, Washington's tallest monument that pierced the sky like a white blade, and was now in the spotlight, as if it would not be possible to show that the Allies had retaken the city.
As Jesse leans against the façade of Arlington Cemetery and walks slowly toward the Potomac River to the northeast, she is suddenly stopped by a voice.
"Mr. Han Fei, good evening."
Jesse turned and waved her hand. Smiling at the young man in the white coat.
"Hmm......" Han Fei nodded, stepped forward, and stopped about a meter or so away from Jiesi, he frowned and hesitated, but he still said his intention bluntly.
"I have something to look for you," Han Fei raised his hand and pushed his glasses, "Or rather." There is a request. ”
"Well, what request?" Jesse nodded. Asked.
"I need you...... I need your permission to make a clone of you. ”
Han Fei was silent for a moment, but still made this request, as if realizing the madness of the request, Han Fei shook his hand, motioned to Jiesi not to interrupt him, and then gave his own reasons.
"I know a little bit about your body. I believe that as long as there is enough practice, you will be able to completely solve your problems. As if to emphasize his grasp, Han Fei nodded heavily.
"Is it to solve 'my problems', or to create a 'flawless me' or a group of 'me without defects'?"
Hear Han Fei's request. Jeunsy was stunned for a moment, then narrowed her eyes, still with a smile on her face, and slowly spoke.
"As long as I solve these problems, I can naturally save you." Han Fei also narrowed his eyes and looked at Jiesi without evasion, "Until then, you can go through guò cryosleep or some other method......"
"Mr. Han Fei, you don't know the existing cryosleep technology, even TF can't withstand it, the body will be greatly traumatized when it thaws, and the probability of survival is extremely low." Jeunse shook her head again, turned to Han Fei, put her hands behind her back, opened her eyes, and her blue pupils stared at the young man in the white coat, "Han Fei, if you have anything to say, now is the time." ”
Han Fei's gaze fell on the girl's eyes that reflected his face, and the fiery gaze made him want to escape for a moment, but he finally took a deep breath, raised his head, and looked at the girl in front of him.
"I like you, or rather, I love you."
Han Fei licked his dry lips, he clearly heard his heartbeat accelerating, which made him panic, as if this sound of his heart trembling violently would be heard by the girl opposite, as if to cover up this sound, he spoke again.
"So I don't want you to die, I don't want you to die worthless like this, so no matter how low the probability is, I'll try...... Cryosleep is also a principle, as long as the brain is preserved, or memory extraction technology is used...... There's always a way! ”
"It really doesn't look like a scientist saying it, although I don't mean it in a pejorative sense." Jesse raised her hand and gently pulled her hair, "Let's not discuss whether my death is worth it, what if I refuse?" ”
"I don't understand why you refuse, it's a matter of life and death for you!" The calmness on Han Fei's face finally collapsed at this moment, "And this research will save a lot of people!" ”
"Then let's make a decision one by one," Jess still didn't have any change in expression on her face, she stared at Han Fei with a sharp arrow-like gaze, "Are you sure to save me in the physical sense who is standing in front of you now, instead of replacing it with a more perfect substitute?" Mr. Han Fei? ”
"This ......"
Han Fei wanted to nod and agree, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't speak-
Because it's not a certainty, it's simply not possible.
The best way to save Jeunese is to "make" a Jeunse again, and the girl standing in front of him now is a mess of garbage in a physical sense, and there is no need to keep it at all!
"It doesn't matter at all, you don't have to save zài in the physical sense!" Han Fei wanted to say something else. But in the end, under the burning gaze of the girl, he said his fundamental thoughts, "From a scientific point of view, only spiritual continuity gives you the meaning of 'you'!" ”
"Can you guarantee that my replacement is 100 percent the same as mine?"
Jeunsy slowly closed her eyes and didn't look at Han Fei's expression, because she knew that as long as Han Fei still had the least respect for the facts as a scientist. The answer to this question is yes.
It is simply impossible to completely replicate a person in the philosophical sense, and it is only a fantasy for prehistoric civilizations, let alone human beings.
"Maybe I'm unsound, but this unsound is also part of my philosophy, and I'm healthy, Karin. Rasmussen, perhaps, will become a critic. Maybe he'll be a pianist, maybe he'll be a warrior, maybe he'll be a chief knight, but he'll not be a 'Jesse. Miele'. Jiesi sighed and smiled meaningfully, not dwelling on this question that Han Fei couldn't answer, "As for what you just mentioned, research will save a lot of people. After my death the cavalry will expose all my body counts, I hope. There can be someone, or rather, Han Fei, you can use this information to save those who are troubled by the Molly Index. ”
"It would be great if I could ask you like that."
Jiesi bowed lightly to Han Fei, the Molly index not only bothered the mechanical TF, but also those who used mechanical organs with congenital disabilities. Or ordinary people with damaged organs, lesions.
"I'm ......" Han Fei gritted his teeth, as if he wanted to say something, but Jiesi spoke softly.
"Han Fei, do you know why the Cavalry Force is prohibiting practical cloning research? All clone research must be under the joint control of the Alliance and the Cavalry. Do you know why it is only at the level of theory and necessity, and prohibits any party from having the ability to independently mass-produce human cloning? ”
Han Fei shook his head gently, and Jiesi took a breath and continued.
"Once the clones have the exact same abilities as humans, the entire human order will collapse." Jessy's voice was very low, but with a faint sadness, "Anyone has the ability to create a terrifying army, not to mention, if you clone the TF gene, you can even have a TF army, which sounds beautiful, but in this world, this will only intensify the solidification of the class - when the people at the bottom even lose the opportunity to sell their labor or sell their lives to the upper class, then the whole society will move towards true sociality, and the final demise of mankind is already an inevitability." ”
"I don't know, Mr. Han Fei, have you ever heard of such a view, that is, 'the right of military service determines the status of the people in society', simply put, when a group is subjected to external pressure, the status of the people will be improved, because the ruler cannot go to the battlefield to fight on his own, and the people must be given more rights to let them defend their homes and the country, but on the contrary, just imagine, if the ruling class has an army that is absolutely loyal and sleepless, then what will happen to the people? Not to mention democracy, I am afraid that because the people still have to possess the resources of survival, even the right to live will be deprived. ”
"Therefore, the cavalry team has always claimed to be the 'protector of mankind', and one of the important jobs is to prevent any form of human cloning research, Mr. Han Fei, your kind of thinking and ability is really very dangerous." Jess shook her head with a smile and blinked half-jokingly.
"I don't want to say it, but it's ridiculous." Han Fei raised his hand and pushed his glasses, "Do you think that if I don't study, no one will study?" This is an inevitability, this is the only way for science, this is the search for truth, and it is an inevitable law of nature. ”
"If you only know how to obey the laws of nature, why are you human?" Jiesi raised her right hand, looked at the metal joints, and then moved her mechanical wrist, as if Han Fei's words had evoked some memories for her, "What's more, it's not that I don't go to research, but I don't want to put it into practice." ”
"A scientist, before being a scientist, a person should first be a human being, should have human emotions, we study science because we want to reveal the laws of nature, because we want to understand what is self and what is the world, but this does not mean that we can condone ourselves in the name of science."
"So, if you want to study, I won't stop it, after all, even if it's dangerous, you have to know why it's dangerous, and I agree with the limited truth, after all, it's the only way to find the truth, but if you want to make a clone of me, I'm sorry, I can't agree, and even if I die, someone will have to stop you." Jiesi raised her head and looked at the starry sky that was a little blurred due to light pollution, "Thank you again for your kindness, I sincerely thank you for what you have done for me, but my morality does not allow me to agree to this condition, although I also want to live, I also believe that you have this ability, but ...... It's too dangerous, your intentions may be good, and I believe in your morality, but there are a lot of stupid and arrogant careerists in this world...... So, please, don't do it. ”
"I still can't understand it." Han Fei sighed, and wanted to try to say something, "The moral law of human beings is only based on their own survival, so in order to survive better, the so-called moral law is simply a piece of waste paper. If science itself is bound by the naïve morality of man, it is simply not capable of pursuing the truth, like the Inquisition! ”
"That's right, Mr. Han Fei, the moral law is based on human survival, I want to add that even science itself is also based on human survival, if science goes in the direction of destroying human beings, human beings will naturally stop the progress of science, which is why no one creates a nuclear war in order to study the ecology of the earth's nuclear explosion, and no one will smash a meteorite on the earth in order to study whether the dinosaurs are really extinct because of a meteorite attack." Facing Han Fei, who was obviously a little angry, Jiesi still only shook her head gently, "I said, we should study science as human beings, only in this way can we remain humble in front of science, human beings cannot create laws, nor can they control laws, they can only use laws, at least for now, at least in the foreseeable future, this will not change, if there is no such humility, then nothing can be brought except ruining miè." ”
Han Fei didn't answer, or rather, couldn't answer, and silence spread through the air for a long time.
"At least, I hope in my own name, I beg you not to do it." Jesse sighed, then bowed deeply.
"You're one of my best friends, and I, Jeunse. Miele, it's a pleasure to meet a friend like you, who loves science and admires nature, and if I really have an afterlife, I think I will also become a scientist. ”
Jesse straightened up, closed her eyes, and spoke slowly.
"With love for human beings and reverence for nature, to explore the world, the ultimate secret."
"Finally, allow me to express my gratitude once again, and, I'm sorry."
"I already have someone I love dearly."
Jeunse breathed a sigh of relief and gave a soft but firm answer to Han Fei, then turned around and quickly disappeared into the night.
The evening breeze blew and lifted the hem of Han Fei's clothes, which was standing alone on the dark lawn.
