Chapter 10 Everything in the world has a definite number, and the definite number must be solvable
This kind of floating car, which looks like a coffin and a throne, is too enjoyable to sit on. Probably the only downside is speed.....
But it's also normal. After all, this type of floating car is essentially just a viewing car. On the way, Delphinium even saw an even more outrageous version—
Some kind of giant sea creature floats slowly through the streets with its tail wagging; A huge two-story palanquin is carried by a group of headless robots, and a huge mechanical icon sits on it.
The icon had the head of a heron, one hand spread out on his chest, an illusory, flowing projection screen reflected in his hand, and his other hand seemed to click on it.
There is also a heavy soldier in the shape of a golden bull with a shell made of gold, walking slowly and heavily down the wide streets.
"That..... It's supposed to be a whale, right?" Delphinium whispered to Russell.
Russell glanced at this and replied, "Well, that's a killer whale, also known as an orca. A very ferocious whale."
"Do the people of Sogo Island still worship whales?"
"I guess it's from Springspring Island..... They are close to the ocean, and they should have whale worship. But I don't think there was one before..... Maybe it's only after I'm gone."
As he spoke, Russell casually asked, "God of Beauty, when did the whale belief appear?"
"I don't think you've seen it before," Meijin replied gently and gently, "that special float with a whale exterior was built two years ago in the winter, before you left Sogo Island. Also, it's not a whale faith, it's a sign of the "killer whale gang."
Hearing what seemed to be the name of some kind of gang, Delphinium finally felt a rare sense of familiarity.
She suddenly got up, sat up straight, and asked the beauty god with some restraint, "Sogo Island..... Are there gangs too?"
"Yes, quite a few."
At this, Russell smiled, turned to the delphinium and said, "Do you remember the Godfather?" "You mean..... "
"Hmm. There is a real "godfather" on Sogo Island, and it is not only in the sect, but in many fields.
"The ethos of Sogo Island is to avoid conflict and trouble..... But conflict is not something you can run away from if you want to, and it can't always be avoided.
"When there is an inevitable violent conflict between the two sides because of their own interests, no one will back down easily. Even if both sides are soberly aware that if they fight at this time, they will definitely lose in the end, but if they retreat here, it means that they will eat all the losses completely.
"They're like two people on motorcycles who collide – if either of them doesn't take the steering wheel off, they're going to die together; And those who choose to flee first will not only lose their majesty," but they will also be exposed to the risk of their own dangerous actions.
"At this point, a third party is needed to "talk about the numbers." The most common method is to invite an old man or old lady with a high status in the industry to be the godfather or godmother of both parties. Take, for example, a Dr. Zambai.
"Since both parties have the same godfather or godmother, then according to our custom here, they can actually be considered a family. The old man can use his own face to ask both parties to give him a face..... That's it.
"So the two motorcycles that would have crashed into each other would have chosen to stop together because there was one more person in the middle. Because both sides are equal, and peace is chosen by the concession of the superior, then there is no one who is more "cowardly" and "flees". And because of their own disputes, they can recognize an old man with a high status as a godfather and godmother, and they will become more face-saving—in a way, they have also become a "family" with the mediator's previous mediator.
"Those seniors have become their "relatives and friends" because of this. If they can take this opportunity to please their godfathers and godmothers, they can have a year-end sacrifice or something
During the festival, I received an invitation from the elderly, so I joined the social circle of the elderly and met some seniors who have been famous for a long time. And that's something to be proud of."
「.... But does it make sense?"
Delphinium's expression became complicated: "Since in Sogo Island, none of these social interactions involve interests...... It's just a matter of face, right?"
"In Sogo, face is the most important thing. But it's really hard to live a decent life...... That's why there are "gangs" that allow a group of losers to help each other and gain the respect of others. Even if it's just respect in your own gang."
Russell reiterated, "After all, here, everyone wants to be a respected person." ..... You really don't look like a Sogo native."
Delphinium looked at Russell and sighed, "I can't see any traces of Sogo's customs in you.
"You are completely unassimilated by this land.....
You're so normal—Delphinium wanted to say that.
But considering that the beauty god was still watching them, Delphinium hesitated for a moment, and chose a more euphemistic statement: "Is this also your talent?"
"No, I've been deeply affected by Sogo Island."
Russell looked out the window and whispered, "Alice said it..... She wanted me to be a great big guy, and that's what I did first;
"I'm tired of the goalless but never-ending progress of Sogo Island, so I gave up my efforts and chose laziness in the Island of Happiness; Those leisure and entertainment that you can't experience at all in Sogo will be enjoyed when you find the opportunity...... Even if it's just a bottle of Coke or a bag of potato chips, I can be satisfied. Because in Sogo Island, although most of them can survive..... But it's hard to improve your life and learn skills.
"If I weren't the chief of Sogo University and the student of the tutor, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to find those 'odd jobs' with low salaries..... So you know how amazing it is for Alice to be able to become a doctor here."
Alice can use her psionic powers to directly touch the lesion. This is a great advantage.
The bullet can be removed directly without the need to open the knife and leave a wound; It can also put its hand into the other person's body and directly return to the dislocated, broken, and broken bones; Or sterilize, anti-inflammatory, zero-distance direct administration in the lesion, without worrying about infection.
Not to mention the troublesome surgeries that require another surgery, correction or treatment once they are not completely removed. If you can save the time of the next surgery, it means that the rest time of the other party can be greatly reduced.
Minor surgeries such as installing, repairing, and removing heart stents, or replacing and maintaining prosthetic livers and kidneys, can also be much safer. Because Alice didn't need to cut open her body to get those things out.
You can directly insert your own hand or the projected "Immortal Device" into the opponent's body, set the "contact-only" thing, and then project something such as a furoshiki to wrap the target and act on the "Immortal Instrument", and then you can take out the prosthetic kidney that needs to be replaced, and then pick up a new one and put it back on..... It's not even much more complicated than rewrapping your phone.
If it goes well, the surgery can be done in about a minute, and even anesthesia is not required.
— For example, the same is true for clearing blocked cardiovascular and cerebrovascular vessels. Without the use of nanoscalpel technology, which is monopolized by ampoule biomedical, the operation would have become much more cumbersome. However, Cute Lisi can directly insert the unsurviving device into the affected area, and set up the psionic energy to make herself "only contact with the blood clot".
It's so easy to fish, even the patient won't feel anything, and the thrombus can be fished out directly by her.
From this point of view, Alice's ability is irreplaceable in a sense.
Her psionic redshift strength is only level three, but she can be used so well precisely because she also has enough medical knowledge and practical experience. And she has a blue shift that is much higher than her own redshift level, which makes her psionic energy completely controlled.
user
If you don't have enough medical knowledge, you won't be able to define exactly what you need to touch and what you don't touch, and even if you do, you may not be able to maintain it.
It can be said that many people have changed their futures because of Alice's surgery.
It's not that you can't be cured, it's because it takes too long to recover.
No matter how old they are or what kind of work they are doing, their wasted lives will leave them far behind than they are at the same time..... Eventually, let them become "losers".
From that point of view......
The delphinium suddenly looked at Russell in amazement.
— That probably means that Alice's identity has already been discovered.
Her abilities are so important, her appearance is so good, she lives alone with her young children, how can she not be investigated, harassed and attacked on weekdays?
I'm afraid there's only one answer.
That is, Alice is actually sheltered - a big man has long guessed that her identity is wrong, and ordered it in advance and took care of it.....
So, who is the highest-ranking big man in Sogo? Is it Dr. Zambai?
Or rather.....
Are they the Three Sages?
Delphinium didn't ask about it in the car.
Until they reach their destination..... It was a small, hidden church. The two wise men said that "there is still something not ready," and after solemnly apologizing, they entered first, while Russell and Delphinium waited at the door of the church.
Only then did the delphinium cautiously whisper in Russell's ear. Russell didn't lower his voice.
He said casually in the volume of his usual conversations and chats, "Actually, I understood Alice's past when I knew it..... The Three Sages did know about this.
"However, AI emphasizes evidence and logic. The Tower of Babel is an organization wanted by dragons, and there is no reason for the "true god" to seek the truth for me...... However, the god of goodness is an artificial intelligence that pursues the 'greatest sum of good', so he is reluctant to attack Alice, who treats many civilians; And the underlying logic of the beauty god is to maintain order and avoid side problems, and Alice has always kept a low profile and obeyed the law, and she had no reason to attack Alice before she took the initiative to reveal her identity and start making trouble.
"—In other words, I'm actually the hostage of the Three Sages controlling and spying on Alice." Russell replied calmly, "I've had a chip in the back of my head since I was born.
"You also know that if you hack into someone else's chip, you will be able to access all of their personal information. And then there's the ability to hear everything he says and see what he sees.
"This is true for the Three Sages. There is no artificial intelligence that is more powerful than them...... Not to mention, this chip was originally issued by them. Just as Tianen Group can access the chip permission at any time, the three sages can also do it.
"In other words, as long as it's within the Sogo network..... There is no secret to any citizen of Sogo Island. Even if it is ***, you can complete the monitoring through the surrounding facilities.
"Even the messages and emails you sent me, it's the same. They don't care, but that doesn't mean they can't see it.
"The original body is the "god" that lives in the virtual network world, and there is no restriction that human beings can only do one thing at the same time, and it is also in the network created by oneself, and each individual has its own terminal that is personally distributed.....
"They were able to control all the vehicles on Sogo without delay or confusion, so they could naturally check the mail of all the residents, and they could hear what they said and saw.
"That's why Sogo is able to achieve 'crime predictions' – the Enforcement Department is notified before the offender officially starts committing the crime, even before they make a decision. And the moment they start committing a crime, they are arrested and the crime is forcibly terminated.
"In other words, the Three Sages actually understand people's hearts better than humans..... In the "suspect" has not yet determined whether he is or not
At the time of the crime, the Three Sages already knew the answer. Those who do not choose to sin will not be able to, and those who will choose to sin can also be calculated by the three sages before such a thought arises.
"From this point of view, what talents do each person have, and what kind of person do they eventually become..... The three sages actually know it. They didn't announce it, and it was based on [gentleness]..... Or rather, 'not necessary.'"
Russell said leisurely, "I'm afraid, the fact that we are all members of the Tower of Babel is already known to the Three Sages." But it doesn't matter. Because I'm going to be "Sal", they will know about it too. And they have a request for us."
「... That's why we're stuck at the airport with two Dr. Zambai." The delphinium reacted.
"You're so smart, Flody."
Russell rubbed Delphinium's ears affectionately: "You also know that we didn't really accept the company's commission to come here to help them deal with something. That's just an excuse to fool the people of Happy Island.
"We were only able to access the internet when the airboat arrived at the border of Sogo. From that time to our landing, it was less than half an hour. In other words, the three sages already knew our identity the moment we connected to the network..... Two Dr. Zambai were sent to the airport. They have a request for us, and it's a deal..... It's a kind of sincerity. By exchanging a sufficient amount of benefits to enable them to acquiesce to our existence."
Russell looked at the closed door of the church and said quietly, "Rather, do you think that with the assistance of the three sages, there will really be a situation where the guests have already received the door, but suddenly you find that you are "not ready" to hang the guests at the door?
"It's obviously because the beauty god guessed that you had something to say, so they specially asked them to put us at the door and give us some time. This is so that I can make these words clear to you..... It's really a kind of gentleness that is quite in the style of the three sages.' It's as if they were able to judge people's limits early on, but they didn't tell these poor people.
This is Sogo Island. Everything here is in the calculations of the Three Sages...... Destiny has been wedged.'"
」.... Then why do you always guess what they do?"
Delphinium felt a strange sense of disobedience: "It's like ..... You've been on the same level as them all from the very beginning."
"Because they're too human."
The corners of Russell's mouth rose slightly, and he replied softly.
So, when I reunite with the god of beauty...... He has already completed the "copying" of the god of beauty. Because of this, the Three Sages should have understood Russell's twilight nature.
As the saying goes, "It's easy to talk to smart people." Two people who can perceive each other's essence no longer need words to communicate after a moment of contact.
So Russell sneered, "Isn't it over talking here now? If nothing else, they're almost 'ready.'"
Russell's voice had just dropped less than two seconds.
Dr. Zambai, who had a red pentagram on his chest, opened the door to the chapel just right.
"I'm really sorry that I didn't have anything ready before..... Now everything is ready."
The old man said in a kind and kind voice, "Please come in with me."
