Finch, who was walking with Grace on the streets of a small country in Eastern Europe, suddenly felt the phone, which was supposed to not ring, vibrate.

He glanced at Grace, who was enjoying the afternoon sun, and quietly pulled out the special phone.

When he read what was written on it, his pupils shrank suddenly, and even his heartbeat increased a little.

There was no doubt that the text message was from a machine he thought was a child.

It's just that he entrusted it to Du Wei when he left the base, and it stands to reason that under Du Wei's auspices, no one will pose a threat to the survival of the machine.

Unless...... That man was Du Wei.

Almost instantly, Finch, who had figured out the cause and effect, couldn't help but hesitate in his heart.

He was out now, and if he did, he would undoubtedly step into that maelstrom again.

As we all know, it's not so easy to get out of the whirlpool.

And now he has a rare opportunity to enjoy a peaceful time with Grace, he really doesn't want to bury this opportunity by himself, and let Grace wait for him who doesn't know life and death.

But what Finch didn't notice was that his hesitation had already fallen into the eyes of Grace, who didn't know when to turn around.

As a lover who knows each other, Grace can detect Fincher's difficulties from the slightest clues.

So while Finch was still immersed in making any choice, Grace was the first to speak:

"Finch, I'm glad to have you with me during this time.

But I also know that there is something in your heart that you can't let go.

Go ahead, go and deal with your last concerns.

I'll be waiting for you here, as always."

Hearing this, Finch came back to his senses in surprise.

Grace's understanding made him even more convinced that she was his destined love.

With the support of his lover, Finch no longer hesitated.

He put a special cell phone into Grace's palm, and then spoke:

"Don't worry, I'll be back, as always."

Hearing Finch repeat her words, Grace smiled, and then playfully held out her little finger and said to Finch:

"Shall we pull the hook then?"

Finch smiled as well and hooked Grace's little finger with his own.

"Of course."

Finch then walked to the airport with Grace in her reluctant eyes.

After Finch completely disappeared from view, Grace had a worried look in her eyes.

She naturally understood how dangerous the events Finch was involved in were.

But she also knew that the events that would make Finch entangled and hesitate must be something he could never let go of in his heart.

She didn't want Finch to have regrets for the rest of her life, so she let him go.

All she wanted now was that Finch would finally come back alive as she had done before.

……

Sitting on the plane, Finch looked out the porthole at the airport that was getting smaller and smaller, and his thoughts were overwhelmed.

As the proud work of his life, he also has a special affection for it, which is more like a father and daughter if measured by human emotion.

Although he adds a lot of impersonal restrictions to the machine, such behavior is more like an educational method for parents to prevent their children from going astray. ….

In the final analysis, what Finch hopes is that the machine can truly become a person with its own correct three views, which will impose many restrictions on it.

But also Finch doesn't want the machine to disappear completely, because it's the brainchild of his heart, his ...... Child.

However, the problems faced by the machine at this time also made Finch feel that it was difficult.

If there is a problem that is difficult to solve with the current machine capabilities, it is difficult to change anything even if it is added.

But when the child encounters a crisis, how can he, as a father, give up the child's life because of the danger?

So even though he has it

He may not be able to come back, and he will go to save the machine without hesitation.

Now he only hopes that things don't turn out to be the worst.

Thinking of this, Finch dug up his old friend's phone number from his phone's address book.

It's been a while since he'd been away from The Salvation Organization, and everything there feels strange in retrospect.

He had to learn more about it so that he could make a reasonable arrangement.

Therefore, his first call was to Reese, and it was he who gave the Murky Reeser hope to live.

Reese is also a partner that Finch can fully trust.

On the other end, Reese, who was drinking with Frank in the bar, saw the number that had not been beating for a long time reappearing on the screen of his phone, and he quietly put down his glass and said:

"I'll go to the bathroom."

Frank, who was drinking vigorously, was stunned for a moment, this is just the first round and someone is ready to escape?

How can this work?

Frank grabbed Reese by the shoulder and pressed him back into his seat, then filled Reese with five glasses of wine:

"Huh? Reese, where are you going to the bathroom?

You don't want to wait until we're done drinking a round and you're going to drink us down, are you?

That's not going to work.

Come, let's drink these five glasses of wine first!"

Seeing that Frank would never let him go if he didn't drink, Reese could only helplessly pick up his wine glass and start drinking tons and tons of sea drinking mode.

In less than ten seconds, Riser directly swept away the wine in the glass in front of him.

Taking advantage of Frank's stunned appearance, Risser, who couldn't help but burp, quickly walked past Frank's side and walked to the bathroom.

Finally, the second when the ringtone was about to disappear, Reeser successfully connected to the phone.

Reese, who was standing in the bathroom, spoke in a deep voice:

"I thought I'd never see you use this number again in my life."

Hearing a familiar voice, Finch sat on the plane and breathed a sigh of relief.

This deep voice is indeed Risser.

And since Reeser was able to talk, it proved that he was still alive.

Then things were nowhere near as bad as he had expected.

It's just that before leaving, he clearly gave Reese a key to unlock all the restrictions of the machine, if the machine really had a problem because of Du Wei, then Reese should have unlocked the restrictions according to the preparation he made before leaving.

But at the moment Reeser didn't mention it.

Sensing that something was wrong, Finch didn't care about greetings, and asked straight to the point:

"Reese, I wonder how you've been doing? ….

How about Dewey? Are you still trying to save more people?"

Reese, who was in the cubicle, was a little strange about Finch's question, but he answered truthfully:

"It's been okay lately, but Gen and Xiao seem to have the intention of quitting the organization.

As for Du Wei, he's pretty good.

Under his leadership, we dealt a heavy blow to the many forces of the High Table.

The most obvious thing is that the nine remaining seats at the high table are not so high-profile anymore.

But the elders, the former leaders of the high table, have been a little nervous lately.

However, Du Wei has already started to target them, but the Elder faction that has developed the android technology does not seem to be so simple.

Even Du Wei couldn't easily collapse them for a while.

That's about it.

Finch, why are you asking? You don't want to come back, do you?"

After listening to Reese's report, the expression on Finch's face was very complicated.

However, he suppressed his doubts for a moment and asked about the machine instead.

"How's the machine doing? It's not out of control, is it?"

"Machines? Probably not.

High table in New York

The forces have been cleaned up by us.

So lately the scope of our activities has not been in New York.

In many cases, machines are of limited use because they have internal networks.

So most of the time the machine is still giving us the number of the 'irrelevant person'.

But now it's a killer named Rog who has worked as a detective and is very skilled.

With the help of our new hackers, they've handled it pretty well."

"New hacker?"

"Yes, after Gen left, Dewey had a guy codenamed 'Mr. Robot' do instead."

Mr. Robot?

Naturally, Finch had heard of the top presence in the hacking world.

He just didn't expect Du Wei to really recruit this person to his command.

Could it be that the machine sends a distress message because of his presence?

After a short thought, Finch finally said:

"Okay, I see, I'm on the plane to New York right now.

Don't tell anyone about it, let's meet in private."

Reese didn't understand what Fincher was hiding for, but out of trust in Fincher he agreed.

After agreeing on a meeting place, Reeser put away her phone and returned to the wine table.

Seeing Reeser return, Frank placed ten overflowing glasses in front of Reeser and spoke:

"Reese, we've had two rounds of drinks just now, and now it's your turn."

……

On the plane, Finch, who hung up the phone, only felt that his thoughts were more chaotic.

Judging by Reese's description, after he left, Dewey did even better.

After all, when he was still there, they had only taken a seat at the high table.

But now Du Wei has made the high table more cautious, and even forced out the hidden force under the high table - the elders' faction to appear.

It is a well-known fact that targets in the shadows are far less difficult to deal with than targets in the open. ….

If the elder takes the initiative to bring out his own power, then there will be a way to take it down.

It just takes a little time.

But these seem to be unrelated to the crisis encountered by the machine.

He didn't see anything of the danger of possible destruction for the machine.

Mr. Hackerbot, the only one that can pose a threat to the machine, is no match for the computing power of the machine today.

After thinking about it, Finch turned out the second number in the address book - Genmei.

This time, the call was quickly connected.

It's just that Genmei's tone is not very good, as if she is angry.

"Finch, you'd better have something important, or be careful that I don't make it possible for you to use your communication equipment in the future."

Listening to Genmei's gunpowder-scented threat, Finch cautiously asked:

"I wonder if the machine is okay?"

Hearing this question, Gen Mei sneered:

"Did the machine contact you?

It's no wonder you're reaching out to me from your vacation.

I know what you want to ask.

I'm sorry to tell you, I do know the answer.

But even you can't solve it.

Because Dewey restarted the Samaritan, or a better Samaritan.

I think you can imagine what the final result of the collision of two AIs will be."

Hearing this unexpected answer, Finch was stunned on the spot.

He didn't expect the truth to be this at all.

Du Wei actually restarted the Samaritans?

It's no wonder that machines generate a sense of crisis.

In the first confrontation, the machines had been at a disadvantage, if they hadn't destroyed the Samaritan consciousness

In the machine room, I'm afraid the machine will be devoured long ago.

Now Du Wei's intention to restart the Samaritans is of course self-evident, and it must be a preparation to suppress the machine.

At the same time, he also understood the reason why Genmei was angry, as Genmei who regarded the machine as her own belief, Du Wei's move was undoubtedly creating a strange god.

It's a blasphemy!

Finch, who finally knew the reason, hesitated for a while, but still asked:

"Did you ask Dewey why he did this?

Did he tell you about the end of the machine?"

Genmei continued to sneer:

"Ask? Heh, do you still need to ask?

He hired Mr. Robot to optimize the Samaritan.

This matter was done directly from us.

So what he wants to do is very simple, naturally he wants to replace the machine.

By the way, I found out that you bought the ticket under a pseudonym, you can't be preparing to go to war with Du Wei, right?"

In the end, Genmei's words had a complicated meaning.

Hearing Genmei's sharp question, Finch suddenly sensed that something was wrong.

From his point of view, there was no point in Du Wei going to war with him.

And Du Wei never does meaningless things.

Finch had another answer in mind, so he tried to analyze it from another angle:

"If it weren't for the worst outcome, I didn't want to get to that point with Du Wei.

He's a terrible opponent and I don't have the confidence to beat him.

But from what I know about him, he's definitely not the kind of person who is ruthless.

There must be a deeper reason for his actions.

If he doesn't want you to know what he's done, I don't think you'll ever know.

So he deliberately divulged that he was optimizing the Samaritans, did he deliberately get you to leave the Salvation Organization so that you could live your own lives?"

Genmei, who was still in a state of anger, was stunned when she heard Finch's understanding from another angle.

If you think about it, there is a real possibility that Finch's words exist.

After all, although Du Wei's work cannot be said to be leaky, it is not so easy for them to discover the truth.

Could it be that behind Du Wei's actions, there is really a meaning behind them to leave the Salvation Organization and live their own lives?

Did you blame Du Wei for being wrong?

Thinking of this, Genmei immediately shouted:

"Shaw, go buy two tickets back to New York tomorrow...... No! Just buy tonight!"

After speaking, Gen Mei said to Finch on the phone:

"Looks like we should all talk to Du Wei."
