85 Confrontation between AIs (5000 words, begging for custom~)
Du Wei, who was looking at the ceiling in a daze, naturally noticed Finch's gaze.
There was a hint of anger and questioning in his eyes.
Speaking of which, Du Wei did not reveal Charlie's true identity as Elijah because he was afraid of Finch's objections.
After all, Elijah was a gang leader and a rioter who liked to plant bombs in cars to assassinate people.
It's not the same as Du Wei and them killing people.
Elijah didn't care if there were civilians nearby.
As long as it is in his interest, he will not hesitate to assassinate hostile elements on the streets.
The resulting riot had nothing to do with him.
Because of this style, before Finch and they came into contact with Elijah, they would only consider it completely evil.
But Elijah actually had goodness in his heart, not to mention that he was the only gang leader who could keep his promises.
This guy is much better at running the Princeton underground than any other unprincipled person.
But at the moment, Finch doesn't know any of these things.
Finch now only knows that Elijah killed a lot of people in the process of ascending to power, and he is an out-and-out guy who deserves to be imprisoned!
So Du Wei opened his mouth after organizing the language a little:
"What if I say Elijah is not our enemy?"
Seeing that Du Wei finally spoke, Finch looked directly into Du Wei's eyes and said sharply:
"Why not? All those who endanger the lives of the masses are our enemies!
This is the consensus that we can sit here and the promise you have made to us.
Don't forget what you said about the goal, you said that there would be no more killing in Princeton, and that there would be no more killings in Princeton, not in the shadow of the high table!
But right now, how many people did Elijah kill in order to successfully unify the underground forces?
Beneath his underground throne is a throne built of bones!
If we don't care about him, how high will he push his throne with his bones in the future?!
I can't imagine! Please imagine it!"
Finch's words were clearly more recognized.
Reese, who was sitting next to Finch, also spoke:
"Dewey, Elijah is a great threat.
From the fact that he completely incarnated himself as a high school history teacher, it can be seen that this person has a deep city.
If such a person is ruthless, the harm he can cause will not be less than that of the Bloody Hand Sect."
McKel, who has always spoken little, also said at this time:
"I agree with them that gangs are the source of all unrest.
It is precisely because of their existence that there will be the existence of forcing good people to become prostitutes.
I don't want to be coerced anymore with a good girl like Tyri.
So, I'm going to do it with or without your consent."
As for Genmei, her mind was completely out of the meeting today, and Eddie was confused.
I wonder what Elijah has to do with the freedom he seeks.
But if the conference were a democracy, Finch's side would have firmly won three votes.
And Du Wei here, there is only himself and two swing tickets.
It seems that the big picture has been decided, and the next step is to start the attack against Elijah. ….
But Du Wei still didn't rush to explain, he twisted his neck, felt a different brain, and unhurriedly drank the Blue Mountain coffee in front of him to moisten his throat, and then said:
"Don't worry, there is a truth that everyone should understand, even in the midday sun, there will still be shadows around the building.
Therefore, it is impossible to create a society that is completely free of underworld forces.
Unless it is the kind of science fiction that implants a chip that can sense the thoughts of every person who is born, it is possible to create a crime-free society.
Do you agree with that?"
Finch looked at Du Wei suspiciously, and he vaguely understood what Du Wei wanted to say.
But he didn't interrupt Du Wei, but nodded in understanding.
He wondered how Du Wei was going to convince them.
Seeing Vinci nod, Du Wei continued:
"So there must be gangs in Princeton in this situation.
They may have embarked on the road of getting rich quick because of a special situation in their family and an urgent need for money, as written in the criminal law.
Maybe it's because I can't do anything else and I just have the strength to do nothing......
In short, for a variety of reasons, even without Elijah, some gangs would spontaneously emerge in all corners of Princeton.
And these gangs will inevitably come into contact with other gangs when they expand their territory, so the fight begins.
If the innocent residents of the neighborhood were unfortunate enough to get involved, they would have died, even if they were lucky enough to survive the night.
The winning side will not end there, they will have to pay high pensions to their dead brothers, and they will have more money to recruit more people to manage the new territory.
In this cycle, it is only a matter of time before Princeton becomes a mess."
Speaking of this, Du Wei paused, no one here was stupid.
He's got it here, and everything he needs to understand will understand.
For example, Eddie, who listened to the opinions and continued to take NZT-48, his brain can be described as spinning rapidly.
When Du Wei began to tell the story, he understood the cause and effect.
Now that Du Wei deliberately paused here, he said knowingly:
"Indeed, for the Princeton underground, a stable force is much better than dozens of small gangs fighting each other.
As far as the future is concerned, having a strong gang unified underground can reduce the number of deaths.
And even if Guo Jianglong wants to forcibly enter here, they don't need us to take action, they will fight on their own.
In any case, the fact that the guy named Elijah was able to unify the underground forces also contributed to the stability of the situation......
Before Eddie could finish speaking, Finch suddenly interrupted:
"And what about the Bloody Hand forces, what is the difference between Elijah and the Bloody Hand?
Before, only the Bloody Hand controlled Princeton, so why did you want to defeat the Bloody Hand again?
Now for Elijah, you're going to let him continue?
Du Wei, you're not applying two standards to the same thing, are you?"
For Finch's requestioning, Du Wei just smiled.
He just waited for Finch to ask.
"Of course it's different, if the Bloody Hand Sect tells you that it doesn't get involved in pornography, gambling and drugs, will you believe it?" ….
There is surprising unanimity on this issue.
"I don't believe it."
"I don't believe it."
"Of course I don't believe it."
Du Wei nodded:
"Yes, no one will believe it.
But if Elijah told me that he never got involved in pornography, gambling and drugs, and only made money from some monopoly business and protection money, I would believe it.
One is because he has nothing to do with the high table, and the other is because I trust his character.
That's the difference you want to hear."
Finch shook his head solemnly:
"Why is he different? I can't find a reason to trust him.
If you say that's what the machine tells you, I don't believe it.
Because the machine doesn't even tell him who he really is."
Finch's implication is easy to understand, machines are not omnipotent.
Since it does not know Charlie's true identity, Elijah, it proves that it has gathered very little information.
In other words, it is difficult for the machine to judge Elijah's true character.
He said this in advance, just to avoid
Don't let Dewey use the machine as an excuse.
"It doesn't matter what I say, what matters is what he does.
Give him some time, and you can see if the frequency of the machine spits out irrelevant numbers increases or decreases, and you can see if what I say is true or false.
In addition, our real enemy has actually appeared.
Desima had already put the Samaritans to the test.
But that's not all we have in trouble, I have credible information that the High Table is going to drop some kind of deadly virus into the surrounding cities.
Elijah is not our problem in the face of these two things, but he may be able to help us in some way."
This is the third time Vinci has heard the name of a Samaritan.
If this guy who has the same power as the machine in Duvey's mouth is really online, then Elijah's matter will indeed be put on the back burner.
In addition, the release of the virus is too appalling.
Directly experimenting with large quantities of live animals? That's crazy, isn't it?
Finch instantly felt a heavy pressure hit him, and now it was really stormy.
But at the end of the day, it's the high table that's behind it.
If it weren't for the high table, the world would be a better place.
"I agree to let Elijah go for the time being, and turn to him as a focus on observing phenomena.
But about the release of the virus, do you have any other clues?"
Du Wei shook his head:
"The machine just gave them a picture of a document that they accidentally exposed.
They had intended to use the Bloody Hand to launch the virus in Princeton.
Now that the Bloody Hand faction has been uprooted by us, it is clear that they can only abandon this plan and switch to another city.
As for which city it is, you'll have to pay more attention to Finch.
If there is an abnormal discovery, we must go to find out if it is related to the virus incident.
Otherwise, once the virus spreads on a large scale and rapidly multiplies and mutates in the human body, the incident is likely to get out of control!"
Finch frowned if he threw himself all his weight into finding the city where the virus broke out.
Then there will be no one to preside over the irrelevant number, and there will be no one to deal with the Samaritans who can threaten the existence of the machine. ….
If...... If something goes wrong with the machine, then their biggest advantage is lost.
Finch's gaze kept looking at the crowd.
There are so few of them now!
"Don't worry, is there any movement on the list I gave you earlier?"
Hearing Du Wei mention it, Finch slapped his head and hurriedly walked to the front of the computer, crackled and typed a name, and then turned the computer monitor to show Du Wei.
There was a bounty on it, a $100 bounty on Frank Martin.
"Got it, so let's do it, Finch, you're in charge of finding out where the virus broke out, and Reese and McKel are in charge of helping you deal with the 'unrelated number' incident.
Eddie continues to run for election, and the good news is that Congressman Walker, who has the highest approval rating, is dead.
So this will be a good opportunity for you to get on top.
As for Elijah, Frank, and Desima, I'll leave it to me and Genmei for the time being.
Also, I need you to untie the machine.
A machine with restraint is far from a match for the Samaritans."
Finch fell silent at Du Wei's request, and after a long time he said:
"How do you know I have the code to untie it?"
"Normal, isn't it?
I've heard that all programmers leave bugs or subtle backdoors in their own programs.
It's a great way to keep your job.
So I just tried you, but I didn't think you really had it, so you can do it."
Finch stared into Du Wei's eyes and said:
"Do you know what that means? After a hard reboot of the machine, it will no longer delete all information at midnight.
It will absorb enough information from big data to grow itself, and then evolve to be comparable to humans, surpass humans, and become god-like beings."
"So what, I don't think you're stupid enough to put a limit on it, right?"
Finch shook his head, indicating that this was not the case:
"At twelve o'clock in the night when I hard reboot it, a payphone will ring, and everyone who receives the call will get full access to the machine.
The machine protects the person with the authority and itself.
Of course, the most important thing is that the person with full authority has the instructions to make the machine self-destruct.
That's the last line of safety I have set."
Du Wei narrowed his eyes, understanding that Finch was not lying:
"So where is that pay phone ringing, is it you?"
Seeing that Du Wei accurately guessed his own setting, Finch replied very happily:
"Yes, it will call my nearest payphone, but I'm going to die, you're going to die, everybody is going to die.
After a hundred years, there is no one to restrict it anymore.
So Du Wei, you have to think about it carefully, you let me release it, and our restrictions on it can only last for 80 years.
Eighty years from now, we won't be able to control it anymore!"
"Can't you re-add code to set limits?"
Finch glanced at Genmei, who was still pondering:
"No, in order to prevent hackers from modifying the code, I locked all the code unmodifiable, including myself. ….
Because I'm afraid that if I have that ability, I will have ambitions that don't belong to me.
So I'm going to make sure, are you sure you want me to release it?"
"Of course, if you don't release it, then the evil Samaritans will take over the world.
You release it, and we can compete with the Samaritans.
Which do you think is better?
So don't hesitate to restart the machine and let it really come into the world.
It's just that when midnight comes, I'm going to answer that phone too."
Finch sighed softly, turned the computer monitor back with a complicated look, and began to get busy in front of the computer.
Soon, lines of code were formed at Finch's fingertips and transported to the far other end.
All data transmission from the virus-infected machine slowed down, and then countless error codes popped up and red lights flashed.
Then at some point, all the lights dimmed and the non-stop hardware stopped vibrating.
Machine...... Stopped running!
When they found that the FIB door of the machine was offline, they panicked, but when they went to the location of the machine, they found that the machine was no longer in it!
The machine disappeared under their eyelids!
Upon inquiry, the staff said that it was a document issued by them that allowed them to deliver the machine to the port in batches.
But everyone knows that no one will move the machine without special circumstances!
An unbelievable possibility came to everyone's mind.
The machine moved itself away!
Outrageous!
It's outrageous!
There's a machine here!
……
Finch stared at the code on the computer screen until all the data was garbled, then he stood up responsibly and said:
"Alright, I'll be waiting for you at the public phone booth next to the office building at twelve o'clock at midnight tonight."
Du Wei nodded and shouted at Genmei:
"Gen, let's go, let's go see Elijah again."
Sister Gen'ah, after a sigh, she stood up and said with some hindsight:
"To Elijah? Didn't you look for him last time? Why are you going again?"
"This is not the same as it used to be, and today when the Samaritan appears, he will be our help."
Hearing the Samaritan's words, Genmei's eyes gradually brightened, and she suddenly realized:
"Samaritans? Right! It should be it!
It's the Samaritan, and it appeared! It's it that competes with me for the monitoring authority of the hospital!
I said how can there be such a powerful hacker in the world, it turns out that I am facing a supercomputer like a machine!"
Hearing Genmei's words, Du Wei and Finch glanced at each other.
Finch's eyes were full of melancholy.
Dewey was right, the Samaritans were a threat to the machine.
This is not a good sign, which means that the Samaritans are taking over the city's Eye of the Sky.
When Genmei was in the hospital, Finch didn't restart the machine.
That is, the machine was completely inferior in the confrontation with the Samaritans.
Fortunately, Du Wei reminded him in time, otherwise by the time the Samaritans had gained full advantage, the machines that had not yet grown up would never be the opponents of the Samaritans.
"Alright, let's leave it alone, let's go to Elijah.
Finch, you have Elijah's address, send it to me."
Finch nodded, of course he had the address, because his earliest plan was to assassinate Elijah.
He knew that Elijah's gang had been built by his charisma.
In other words, after Elijah's death, the underground kingdom he had established would fall apart.
But now it's pointless, an evil version of the machine is taking over the city.
It's not just Princeton, it's the whole country.
Finch still knows which is more important.
After getting the number, Reeser told Dewey that there was a pickup truck parked on the road outside the office building that anyone could sit on and drive.
It's a pickup again!
Du Wei knows a thing or two about Reese's choice, because coupes, sports cars and other models are easy to attract the attention of others.
And this kind of pickup truck and the like are much more inconspicuous.
Soon Du Wei, who was driving a dilapidated pickup truck, came to the bottom of the unremarkable building.
There were a few passers-by standing under the building who seemed to be chatting and farting, but Du Wei recognized one of them at a glance as Elijah's number one thug - Scar.
