Chapter 43: A Meteor Flying Backwards
"What do you mean, why didn't I understand?" Shirahoshi scratched his head and expressed his doubts.
"Literally, in your mind, the part of the prosthetic body is loaded, can you still call it human?"
"Eh, why are you asking me this question all of a sudden?"
"Well, because I don't quite understand the kind of spiritual power you are talking about, but your explanation probably means that this power is linked to your physical body, right?"
"I think it may have something to do with your cognition, after installing the prosthesis, did you repair the damaged part, or completely lost that part?"
"This ...... I never thought of that...... "Shirahoshi said hesitantly.
"Well, you can think about this problem more, if you can solve it, maybe it will help you."
"And this cognitive problem, in fact, is not complicated, but it is not simple to say."
Victor leaned back in his chair and began to reminisce about the past.
"As a prosthetic doctor, I have already installed and replaced many people, and even though I have tried my best to help them avoid the deterioration of cyber psychosis, it is a pity that ......"
"You know, a lot of these people are because of their self-perception."
"When the prosthetic body on the body is more and more, the body begins to slowly approach the inhuman, and the difference from the people around them, or alienation, makes them begin to doubt themselves, and eventually they all deteriorate completely."
"I see......
Shirahoshi nodded thoughtfully, he seemed to understand something, but he was a little puzzled.
Is the prosthetic part really still ...... itself?
This question shackles Shirahoshi from the old era, who has never lived in the cyber world full of prosthetics since he was a child, and has always had some ideological barriers to this thing.
Perhaps, deep down in his heart, he still can't agree that loading a prosthetic body is a kind of repair or something.
Just like the brain machine in his head, Shirahoshi always thought that it was something else in his brain, a built-in device rather than an organ.
"Alright, that's all for the conversation, I'll have a guest for the reservation later." Victor said, "Of course, this conversation is confidential, and since Regina is willing to recommend it to you, then trust me to have a reputation with you, right?" ”
"Well, Lao Wei, I believe you, not only because of Regina's protection, but also because of my intuition."
"Hahaha, intuition." Victor smiled, "Sometimes you can't rely on intuition, but I don't have anything to evaluate, maybe you just say that kind of people who are born with super intuition?" ”
When Shirahoshi walked to the door, Victor suddenly stopped him again.
"You might be able to talk to Misty when you go out, she still has something to do with her divination, maybe after talking to her, you'll be able to figure it out a lot."
"Well, thanks again, Lao Wei."
Shirahoshi exited the basement and returned to Misty's shop, and his eyes saw a very familiar person.
"Rebecca? Why are you here? ”
The double ponytail Lori was also very surprised to see Shirahoshi.
"I originally came here to find the prosthetic doctor to pretend to be a prosthetic, a pair of gorilla arms, so that I could use a more powerful weapon."
"You mean Lao Wei?"
"Yes, eh, you also know Lao Wei?!"
"Hmm...... Well, actually, I just found out......"
"By the way, what did you mean by 'originally'?" Shirahoshi noticed something special in Rebecca's words.
"Alas-" Rebecca sighed and said, "Isn't there no money, the lung prosthesis that I replaced in the hospital used up all the money I had prepared this time, so I had to cancel the ......"
After that, Rebecca's eyes lit up as if she had thought of something, and she asked, "Wait! Bai Xing, you are also here, and you have just come out of Lao Wei's prosthetic clinic, you can't have already thought about changing your lungs! ”
"Well, it's not completely decided yet......" Shirahoshi could only touch her nose and answer her with a wry smile.
"Cut—" Rebecca was stunned, but she quickly adjusted her mood.
"I still hope you can put it on sooner, and if you cure this thing sooner, there will be nothing?"
"I'll take your opinion into account."
"Ah, yes, yes." Rebecca walked past Shirahoshi in a huff, nodding her head like a chicken pecking at rice with an "ahh
"You're always like that, saying I'll take your opinion into account, but in the end you're not going to do it according to your own will."
"It's better to be like me and follow your own way from beginning to end." Rebecca turned her head, leaving Shirahoshi with a delicate side face.
"No matter what problems you encounter, just rush and you're done!"
"You're living at ease."
"Hey, of course."
Bai Xingmu sent Rebecca to the basement, thinking that he would have nothing to do, so he would just wait for the other party.
Thinking of this, he simply found Misty and planned to simply take a small divination.
"Hello, Misty, can you tell me a divination?"
"Of course, no problem." Misty pointed to her desk and motioned for Shirahoshi to stand across from her.
Shirahoshi stood still in front of her, looked at the empty table, looked up at Mysty, who had been staring at her, and couldn't help asking:
"Hmm...... Generally speaking, isn't there supposed to be some props for divination? For example, tarot crystal balls or something. ”
"That's just one medium, and there can be many kinds of divination mediums, such as face to face and palm and so on."
"And Mr. Shirahoshi, your fate is dazzling, dazzling enough for me to see it through your eyes."
"yes, what do you see?"
"I saw a powerful spiritual force, like the brightest star in the night sky, and like a shooting star."
"But the stars will also be obscured by darkness, and your spirit is not perfect enough, and this meteor, after reaching a point, will begin to reverse."
"Reversal? What does that mean? ”
"A shooting star flying backwards, this will be your end, the stars usually represent hope, maybe it means that you can bring hope to everyone to turn everything around."
"But the meteor will always have a home, whether it will reach your destination first, or extinguish your light before reaching your destination, I won't see the rest of it."
"It's up to you, Mr. Shirahoshi."
"Thank you, Misty." Although Shirahoshi heard something in the clouds, he thanked Misty out of politeness.
"Oh yes, that, how much is divination—"
"I won't take your money this time, Mr. Shirahoshi." Misty smiled and said, "The light of the stars is beautiful, and this beautiful scene should be regarded as the reward for this divination." ”
"Hmm, is that really good?"
"It's okay, I just hope my words will be useful to you."
