The sky was bright and clear, and the warm yellow sun shone hot. Xie Jinzhi felt a chill on his back, instantly soaking his whole body.

And he still looked at her calmly.

Xie Jinzhi knew very well that before today, he had never seen this man. After a moment of silence, she spoke: "Strange power, I never believe it. The clear and delicate eyes looked directly at him without avoidance: "You have sound limbs and good looks, don't do this kind of swaggering and deceiving thing in the future." ”

The wind blows gently in my ears, and people come and go. The sun shone on his face, and the eyebrows were exceptionally clear and quiet.

He was silent, not knowing what he was thinking.

Xie Jinzhi took another step to go.

Unexpectedly, he raised his arm again to stop it, and she almost didn't bump into the soft and clean white shirt.

She was a little annoyed and looked at him coldly.

He spoke, his voice as soft and calm as unmoving water: "You have nothing to deceive me. ”

The first thought that popped up in Xie Jinzhi's heart: He said this, but there was some truth. But when you think about it, it's a bit insulting.

"Then why do you conclude that something terrible has happened to me?" She stared at him.

He was quiet for a few more seconds.

"Because I'm ......," he replied, "top hackers." ”

Xie Jinzhi was stunned.

He let go of his hands behind his back and slipped them into his trouser pockets. He stopped looking at her, and turned his gaze to the mountains and blue sky in the distance.

"When it was cold, 189XXXX3598."

As if he was sure that she would call him, after saying this, he turned around and walked towards the temple gate. There were a lot of people coming in and out, and soon his figure disappeared into the crowd and was no longer visible.

Xie Jinzhi stood in place for a while, then took out his mobile phone and wrote it down.

——

The Provincial Library is located in the center of Jiangcheng City, looking from afar, the gray and strict buildings stand in the traffic of the city. After graduating from university last year, Xie Jinzhi can be regarded as a regular employee of the provincial map.

At noon, the sky turned from sunny to overcast. Vast expanses of clouds, like a continuous and pale brocade, obscured the whole world.

As soon as Xie Jinzhi walked into the hall, Ran Yu behind the workbench immediately got up to greet him. Big black eyes looked at her with dripping: "It's really good?" ”

Jinzhi took her hand: "Okay." You see, I'm coming to work in the afternoon. ”

Ran Yu nodded, turned around and said to another person behind the workbench: "Zhuang Chong, Jinzhi has not felt well these days, you should do more work." ”

The man named Zhuang Chong buried his face behind the computer, his tall and thin figure sat still, and let out a soft "um".

Jinzhi chuckled and pushed Ran Yu's hand: "Don't bully him." ”

Ran Yu glanced at her: "Where did I bully him?" Don't look at him sitting precariously, just a little lunch break, the game is playing happily. ”

The afternoon was as quiet as usual.

Today is a working day and there are not many people. After finishing some of the work at hand, Jinzhi supported his chin with his hand and looked up. Zhuang Chong was standing between two rows of bookshelves, looking up and tidying up, and his side face looked fair and delicate under the lamp. He joined the company at the same time as Jinzhi, don't look at the usual silence, just now Ran Yu told him, he really did most of the work alone. A typical image of a hard-working engineering man.

Ran Yu sat in her seat, humming a minor tune, and lowered her head to sort out the book labels.

Xie Jinzhi's gaze slid over her and landed on the computer in front of her. Then a row of computers came over, and finally the computer screen in front of me. The light is bright and the pattern is clear. This is the new computer that was uniformly equipped in the museum at the beginning of this year.

She looked along the power cord again, and finally her gaze jumped to the computer room not far away. Behind the glass door, the huge body of the library host looks gray and black and thick. It occupies an entire room.

This entire computer system was also imported from the United States just at the beginning of the year. As a result, the provincial map has become one of the largest and most advanced libraries in Central China and even in the country.

The hall was quiet, and Xie Jinzhi seemed to be able to hear the low and continuous sound of the host running in his ears.

She picked up her phone, got up, pushed the door and walked out.

There was no one in the stairwell, it was dark and quiet. She lowered her head and blew on the ground and sat down on the steps. Then he called Xie Jinxing.

Xie Jinxing was probably busy, and it took a long time to pick it up. If Jinzhi's personality is quiet, then this brother's temperament is several times more introverted and rigid than her. However, it is said that in scientific research, he often puts forward many bold and groundbreaking ideas. So under thirty, he is already an associate professor.

"Jinzhi, what's the matter?" Xie Jinxing asked with concern in his voice. He also knows this sister's temperament, and she is very steady. If it weren't for a hundred thousand urgent matters, she wouldn't bother during working hours.

Jinzhi held the phone, and the fingers of his other hand were gently scratched on the ground, stained with a lot of dust.

"Xie Jinxing, I have a question for you. If the computer ...... In particular, mainframe computers do not act according to instructions, and there is a chaotic and autonomous performance, what is the reason for this? ”

Xie Jinxing was obviously a little surprised. After a moment of silence, he replied, "Generally speaking, there are two reasons. One, is hacking. ”

He mentions "hackers", and the face of the young man he met in the morning flashes through his mind.

"After being controlled by hackers, what kind of behavior the computer will behave depends on the intention of the hacker. Surely you know that, too. Xie Jinxing paused, and there was a shallow smile in his voice, "The second reason, which is common among us scientific researchers, but far away from your life, is artificial intelligence." ”

Xie Jinzhi was quiet and listened to him continue: "You know, countries have been studying artificial intelligence for many years. However, whether it is for us, Japan, or the United States, research is still in its infancy. I have a classmate who does this at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The situation you're talking about — chaotic, autonomous, computers that don't follow instructions — is probably a lot to see in their labs. ”

Xie Jinzhi let out a soft "oh".

Jin Xing asked again: "What problem did you encounter?" ”

Jinzhi's voice was slightly dull: "Maybe it's the first one, but it's also possible...... is the second type. ”

At this time, Xie Jinxing was silent.

"I remember, you introduced a system in your hall this year?" He asked again.

"Yes." She paused and replied, "That's it." ”

There was silence on the phone for a moment.

In the end, Xie Jinxing said: "You don't do anything first. I've been in a closed project for the past few days, and I can't use my phone for a while. I'll come over next week and we'll talk. ”

——

In the evening, the clouds are getting thicker and thicker, and the storm is coming.

Xie Jinzhi's rented house is near the provincial map, a seven- or eight-minute walk. As soon as she stepped into the house, she saw the rain falling outside the window. Soon there was a crackling sound, and the rain was not small.

Several unopened express cartons are piled up in the hallway; The couch was littered with her clothes; The quilt on the bed was folded, but its shape was slightly distorted. Naturally, the table is also a mess.

Ran Yu once commented on this. She said that Xie Jinzhi is a typical "unwise outside".

Jinzhi is calm, she thinks this is very good and warm. Clear the table out of a clean place and put down the rice bowl she had packed from the cafeteria. Sit down and eat while typing in your phone's browser:

"When it's cold."

The search yielded no results.

Photographs, biographies, biographies...... Nothing.

Could he really be a hacker?

She looked up and out the window. In the rain and fog, the library building not far away, the black lights are blind, like a gray giant, standing in the twilight.

"Ding Dong", Jinzhi looked down. In the corner, the sweeping robot she bought a few months ago is starting to work.

Just a few days after I bought it, Jinzhi followed it with great interest, wandering around the room and observing it. Later, I got used to its presence.

At this moment, she put down her chopsticks and got up, walked over, crouched down next to it, and watched quietly.

It is said to be a "sweeping robot", but it is just a gimmick of the merchant, but it is actually a "sweeping machine", which can be bought for thousands of yuan on the market. Round, like a metal flatbread, a cleaning device is installed. There is a camera at the top and a chip inside. According to the topography of the room, the sweeping route can be easily planned. Then start it regularly every day, clean the whole house, and go back to the electrical outlet by yourself, completely unattended. （＊）

Xie said that artificial intelligence is far away from her life. He is such a diligent and tidy person, probably never used a sweeping machine.

I just don't know how advanced the "primary artificial intelligence" he said is in the research stage than this sweeping machine?

It was completely dark, and the rain was constantly sounding.

Jinzhi sat in front of the window, turned on the lamp, and read a book. I had just turned a few pages when my phone rang.

It was Ran Yu who only separated when she got off work, and her voice was very anxious: "Jinzhi Jinzhi, do me a favor!" Be sure to do me a favor! Please, please! ”

"Say it." Jinzhi turned the page again, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "What's the hurry." ”

Ran Yu's tone was frustrated and guilty: "When I got off work today, there were a few windows in the basic ancient books area, and I forgot to close them......"

Jinzhi's fingers turned through the book and stopped.

"I know it's raining so hard, it's inconvenient." Ran Yu still said anxiously, "But my family lives across the river, and it's too far to rush back to the museum." I called Zhuang Chong, but you know that kid plays games as soon as he gets off work and doesn't answer the phone at all. Only you live closer, please, please! If a precious book gets wet, I won't be slaughtered by the curator! Alas, I'm so frizzy, I'm sorry I'm sorry! Can you ...... Take a run, huh? Tomorrow I will treat you to a small hot pot, okay? ”

Jinzhi felt that the situation was really terrible, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Ran Yu also noticed her silence, gritted her teeth and said, "It's really not good, I'll run by myself." It's okay. ”

"No, it's not." Jinzhi interrupted her and looked up at the buildings again. The outline of the building is no longer visible, as if it has melted into the wet night.

The night before, she went back to the museum alone, also in the middle of the night.

Then, I saw those bizarre things.

If I go again today, will I encounter it again?

"I was thinking about something else." She said, "I'll be right away, don't worry." ”

Xie Jinzhi held up an umbrella and went downstairs with a flashlight. With such heavy rain, there were hardly any people on the streets. The car also ran fast, as if it wanted to escape from the heavy rain immediately.

The street lights were dim, and Jinzhi stepped on a pool of stagnant water, large and small, and soon arrived outside the library.

There weren't a few cars parked in front of the door, and she didn't usually pay much attention to them. But today there is one car that stands out, the bright Porsche two-seater sports car. One look at the exaggerated low body and streamlined shape, you know that it is extremely expensive.

Jinzhi glanced twice and walked into the library.

When she got downstairs, she put away her umbrella, swiped her card to enter the door, and reached out to turn on a light in the hallway. The white light, like a spreading tide, spread in all directions from where she stood. The color fades and fades, slowly transitioning into the dark and deep corridor.

Jinzhi calmed down, took out a flashlight, and went upstairs without hurrying.

The author has something to say: Come on, come on, buy and leave, who will be such a sassy sports car? Hey.
