Chapter 15: Reasoning
The experimenter in position A is the software. When the first experiment reached a certain behavioral time, that is, ten o'clock in the software diary, he was naturally indifferent.
This corresponds to Phenomenon 1 of the experiment. Brother Shui gave the instruction to hit the ground ten times with his right hand, telling him to go back in time, and when the time reached ten o'clock again, he made a corresponding action. At ten o'clock, the software makes a corresponding action, which corresponds to the phenomenon of the experiment2. Brother Shui will kill the software, and order the experimenter in position B, I remember it is Liangmin, and ask Liangmin to go back in time and act accordingly......
That's not right......
Why does this diary appear on Brother Shui's desktop?
The time of the injection potion written in the software diary is half past nine, as long as the good people go back to the time, what happened after half past nine should not have happened! The time is ...... Half past ten.
It's so confusing......
Why is that?
There is no mention of any action in the journal of the software, indicating that Phenomenon 345 has not yet appeared, and of course it is not excluded that the software has not been written.
Assuming that Phenomenon 345 does not appear, it means that the experiment is only carried out until the software completes the corresponding action. Why was the experiment interrupted? Did Brother Shui kill the software? Does the bloodstain on the notebook mean that Brother Shui has already done it? This notebook appeared on Brother Shui's desktop, indicating that Brother Shui had come back between ten and half past ten. It should be between ten and ten fifteen to be exact, after all, it has been a while since I came into Brother Shui's dormitory.
What was the reason for the interruption of the experiment? Good citizens do not cooperate with the experiment? Brother Shui should continue to coerce and lure him in the basement, instead of taking the software diary back to the dormitory. If something happened that caused the experiment to fail early, then it was time for him to re-experiment in time after such a long time.
Or was Brother Shui stimulated by the software's insistence on writing a diary before his death, and suspended the experiment to calm down? There is some possibility of this explanation. He went to great lengths to win my trust and get me to cooperate with his experiments, just to use me and erase his memory of the process of doing human centipede experiments. So in fact, Brother Shui is also under huge psychological pressure when he does this experiment.
So why do you have to do it? Why would Brother Shui obey the words of the soldiers who killed his friend? Brother Shui claimed to be the first person to drink the potion, and theoretically no one could go back in time before him.
So in the face of all unfavorable factors, unless he dies suddenly, he can avoid it by going back in time. No one could threaten him, but he did experiments that he didn't want to accept. Could it be that Brother Shui's claim to be the first person to drink the potion is also a lie? There is a time backtracking that drank the potion earlier and could threaten him?
Threaten him......
Actually, I can threaten him now.
I just need to go back in time and tell him that I came back with a verification code for the results of the human centipede experiment, and he will definitely do his best to meet my request. Because he never wants to know that he has completed the experiment in another timeline and has to do it again.
But does that make any sense? Experiments with this timeline have already begun, and it's not even the first loop. As long as I don't do anything, my roommates will go back to the same after they have endured the pain over and over again, including all my memories of the moment.
Can I convince Brother Shui with a fake experiment conclusion and make him stop doing this experiment? I don't even know the checksum. And if this experiment is not done, what about other experiments in the future? Am I interfering with this experiment just because I know it exists, and what I don't know has nothing to do with me?
Pretend to know the results of the experiment and threaten Brother Shui not to do other experiments again? What's the point? Brother Shui couldn't get the results of the experiment for a long time, so he would only go back in time to erase my memory and start the experiment again.
I couldn't even figure out what the experiment was doing, whether it represented justice, whether my roommate's sacrifice was worth it. What exactly is my value scale? Can you go back in time to before everything happened, that is, it didn't happen? If I interfere with the experiment, is it the destruction of a game designed by a wise man by a philistine?
First of all, I need to figure out what this experiment is doing, right?
The experiment is called the human centipede experiment, and it is also called the "verification experiment of memory coexistence at similar points in time", so in the final analysis, it is to verify whether memories at similar points in time can coexist, right? The proximity of time in this should refer to the proximity of the time when the potion was drunk. Therefore, the experimental rules require that the injection method be used to ensure that the effective time of the potion is similar.
Memory coexistence? Does it mean that time has been retraced, and other people's memories still exist? That's understandable. As we have just analyzed, after the death of the software, the good people should go back in time with different instructions. Phenomenon 3 only occurs when both the good people and the software remember what they need to do and act together at ten o'clock. If you go back in time to a similar starting point and do not erase each other's memories, then Phenomenon 4 will also occur, and the experiment will be successful.
Under what circumstances will an experiment fail? If you are close to each other, you will still clear each other's memories, and you will fail. And why does this experiment require a lot of attempts, and even if it fails, it has a 1 in 6 success rate?
Sixth......
Three people......
The denominator of the combined number is not six, and if the number is arranged, it ...... Full arrangement? If Liangmin wants to go back in time and not clear the memory of the software, his potion will take effect later than the software, and the order of Yongqi and Liangmin will be the same......
That's right! That's one in six! There is only one case, and it is the same as a broken clock twice a day.
Everything makes sense. Essentially, this experiment is to verify whether the behavior of going back in time at a similar point in time will also erase memories of each other. That made them centipedes...... Kill the previous experimenter each time......
What's the point?
Isn't it enough to make sure that the three experimenters don't collude with each other? Is it necessary to kill people like this? Did I miss something, and I didn't use it in this way, and even the tranquilizers were saved, so the experimenter himself could relax and retrace the time, so why bother doing it multiple times......
And with such a lot of effort, isn't it more difficult to finally sew up the mouth of the experimenter in position A to avoid communication than to find three people who can be completely trusted?
Although I haven't figured out a lot of details, I can figure out the general idea and purpose of this experiment. Am I also qualified to make a ...... on the plausibility of the experiment? Reviews and suggestions?
If Brother Shui hadn't lied, he was indeed the first experimenter to drink the potion, and there was no need for him to obey the experiment instructed by the civil soldier, right? And just to verify this phenomenon of memory coexistence, there is no need to do this, right? If I can discuss with Brother Shui to change the experimental method, I will have no problem finding two trusted friends to cooperate......
Or am I simplifying the complex problem again......
It's really annoying......
Is it possible that from the very beginning, all this was fake......
Is it possible that as long as someone drinks the potion and decides to go back in time in the future, everything that happens in between is fake. These things are just rehearsals for the brain's from the moment the person drinks the potion......
But if he doesn't go back in time in the future, won't all this become real again? If everything that happened in the time being retraced is fake, how can it tell when it is fake? There is no guarantee that the experimenter will or will not go back in time to the present. Isn't this a violation of the law of cause and effect......
But it's similar to Wheeler's delayed choice experiment. Light can predict whether there is a semi-reflective lens on the subsequent path, and thus decide whether it will exhibit particle or wave. If we live in a world that can also predict the future, whether someone will go back in time to decide whether the present is real, or if it is just a rehearsal of someone's brain......
But I'm just an ordinary computer science college student, but I usually like to read some fragmented and nutritious popular science knowledge, and I don't even know how Huilin potion works. It doesn't make much sense for me to analyze and speculate on such a complex matter without any basis......
