"Lin Xiaoyun, I think you're crazy in your lab! Do you know how much of a social problem this research can cause if it goes out? ”

"So what! Teacher, don't you know the significance of this achievement? This is a miracle that the authority of the god of death has been directly put into the hands of humans! What a miracle! ”

Lin Xiaoyun looked directly at the mentor in front of him who had taught him for four years, and did not give an inch. The mentor also seemed to be familiar with her character, and did not admonish, but only threatened:

"Lin Xiaoyun, I'll leave you here, if you dare to leak this technology, I will dare to ask the above to cut off your experimental funds!"

After saying this, the tutor threw away the report in his hand, turned around angrily, and immediately slammed the door and left, leaving Lin Xiaoyun standing alone in the lecture hall.

She took a deep breath, softened her cheeks, which were flushed from the argument, and crouched down to sort through the papers and reports that had been thrown around by her mentor, thinking back to herself three years ago.

Three years ago.

"Yunyun, are you really going to that research base?"

Lin Xiaoyun nodded, looked at the concerned face of her boyfriend in front of her, reached out and pinched his shoulder, and reassured:

"Rest assured, I'm just tackling a biotech problem. As soon as the problem was solved, I came back immediately. ”

When her boyfriend heard this, his face looked better, he handed her the luggage in his hand, and instructed: "Pay attention to your body when you get there, don't ignore anything at the beginning of your research, take good care of yourself." ”

"Got it~"

Lin Xiaoyun took the luggage, responded to him with a long voice, turned his back and left, and waved his hand,

"Let's go, don't miss me too much."

on the train.

Lin Xiaoyun looked out the window, and the scenery on both sides kept receding. It was the depths of winter, and the woodlands on both sides of the road were depressed, just lifeless white.

After looking at it for a while, she seemed to be tired of it, so she turned her eyes to the technicians who were traveling with her, and found that one of them was carrying a computer, and was a little surprised, and asked, "We... Isn't it tackling a biotechnology problem? Do you need to bring your own computer? ”

The other party was obviously stunned by her question, and then asked rhetorically: "I received a notice asking me to update computer algorithms, why aren't you studying computers?" ”

Lin Xiaoyun did not answer. She was well aware that the information she had received was from a very reliable source and that it was impossible to fool them with such details. There is only one possibility, and the technology itself that they are involved in involves a wide range of fields.

She was not very surprised, after all, it is a huge project, and it is strange that there are not many talents in a few aspects to ensure the smooth progress of the project.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoyun told the other party his opinion. The man also looked appreciative and said:

"When the researcher informed me this time, it was mysterious, and at first glance it was that kind of high-tech project, and it was normal for us little people to know less."

The topic ended in Lin Xiaoyun's echo and harmony. Out of boredom, she turned to reading some biology books to pass the time.

Outside the window, the wind and snow gradually rose, and the snow flakes adhered to the peeling, and the symmetrical lines on the top were crystal clear, like flowers that never withered, resisting the cold of the years.

Research Institute No. 076.

"Not because of the distrust of all of you, but because of the importance of our research project, we are now going to conduct a two-week assessment of your technical ability and ethics."

The instructor on the stage was talking, and the personnel in black uniforms on the side observed the demeanor and movements of the crowd, writing and drawing on a piece of paper, as if they were doing something psychological.

In the leisure time of the train, Lin Xiaoyun thought that maybe this project would be more serious, but he didn't expect the momentum to be so huge.

She even saw a lot of academic seniors who had won international cutting-edge science and technology awards in the crowd under the podium, and the instructor seemed to see everyone's doubts and chuckled.

"I know that everyone is very curious about the specifics of this research. Due to confidentiality regulations, I can't tell you all about it now, but I can explain that the concept of the main body of our project is ......"

The instructor still maintained that kind of polite smile on his face, waved his hand, and motioned the technicians in the audience to open the PPT behind him, and the two large black characters were particularly eye-catching on the white background board.

“…… Eternal life. ”

Next.

"Eh, your name... Lin Xiaoyun, right? What is the task assigned to you above? ”

Lin Xiaoyun raised his head, looked at the previous fellow traveler who came over in front of him, was suspicious, and said vaguely:

"Something about... The study of the human brain. ”

The man didn't seem to be satisfied with the confusion of her attitude, and was about to continue to ask, but was pressed down by two security guards who came out from the side, pressed his head, folded his hands, and directly handcuffed them.

Lin Xiaoyun was taken aback, but heard one of the security guards smile gently at him and comforted:

"It's Dr. Lin, right? This person is a spy of a malignant organization outside the country, suspected of crimes against humanity, and we only found out yesterday, you are frightened. ”

She hurriedly waved her hand, signaling that they were doing official business, which she could understand, but her doubts about this place had increased sharply in her heart.

The fact that such a scientific research institution can be infiltrated by malignant organizations shows the danger of this research project and the great value of its results.

Reason drove her to hurry up and hand in her resignation and leave this dangerous place immediately. But the instinct of scientific researchers to seek the truth stopped her.

After some thought, she set her sights on the experimental topic assigned to her hand - "On the Thinking Bottleneck of the Human Brain". Compared to a biological research topic, this one I was assigned was more of a philosophical question.

But since this project team is so rigorous, it will never assign topics casually. They must be convinced that with their expertise and knowledge, they will be able to interpret in their own field.

Is it a "bottleneck in the human brain" in the biological sense?

Lin Xiaoyun thought of the computer major passenger on the train, his eyes lit slightly, and he seemed to vaguely understand the meaning of "eternal life" they said.

With the help of the 24-hour continuous light in the laboratory, she wrote a paper that would be called the "devil's box" by later generations.

——"On the Feasibility of Combining the Human Brain and Computers".

Two weeks later.

"Xiaolin, we've read your paper. The arguments are rigorous and the ideas are creative. I don't know... Do you have any specific implementation plans, plans or whatever? ”

Lin Xiaoyun glanced at the instructor with a kind smile in front of him, and then glanced at the surrounding contact talents of various majors, and replied tentatively:

"There are several research directions in my dissertation, but all of them require a lot of funding and technical support. If I can be given enough time and capital to tilt, I should be able to come up with a solution that is most feasible for the current technology. ”

The instructor said a few words to the two scientific authorities around him, and then smiled apologetically at Lin Xiaoyun, and said gently:

"Xiao Lin, you also know our situation, and it will take time to coordinate the sudden tilt of resources of this magnitude. You go back first, and I'll let you know when there's news. ”

On the way back, Lin Xiaoyun fell into an inexplicable reverie, like an ethereal daydream.

It was an endless ice field, and there seemed to be a crack in the rock-solid ice, and a branch protruded from it, and then a white flower bloomed.

The flowers and leaves are gorgeous and dazzling, like white spirits dancing on the ice, and it seems that they will never wither or decay.

Rather than believing in the strength of the institute's resource mobilization, Lin Xiaoyun is more aware of the epoch-making significance of his paper, and also knows that once this technology is successfully developed, the impact on human society will be unprecedented.

This excitement and apprehension about the possibility of going down in history continued until she received a notification from the research base that her plan had been approved in its entirety and that she herself had been appointed chief engineer of the project.

She didn't care about the specific content of the notice, Lin Xiaoyun only knew that her name would go down in history and become an epoch-making turning point in human history.
