Jiao Shensan's Importance

"He."

"That's Jiao Shensan, the 68-year-old you met before, who's the Research Society Chief Scientist."

His physical body has been diagnosed with cancer.

"Even with current Nutrient Pod technology, this type of cancer cannot be cured."

Jiao Shensan slowly said, "Of course he would know about his illness in advance, and he also knew that his days were numbered."

"But he's just too important."

"Bearing countless responsibilities, countless burdens, and countless scientific achievements, they await his review and refinement."

"This even concerns the fate of all humankind."

"So."

"He created eight Digital Human, seven of whom, carrying his life's knowledge, were deployed to various Metaverse."

"You may not know this, but when Digital Human are first created, they actually lack spirituality, so they must undergo certain trials, such as experiencing various aspects of human nature."

Jiao Shensan straightened up. "And I am the eighth Digital Human, a blank slate with only basic ideas."

"And the purpose of my existence is to integrate seven sets of mature data."

"Seven... data entries imbued with humanity."

"In this way, I can successfully become 'a person,' replacing the seriously ill Jiao Shensan, and continue to shine and benefit humanity."

The boy listened quietly, his expression unreadable, then asked, "Then why did he commit suicide? In other words, why did he want to die prematurely?"

Blank Slate Jiao Shensan, stared directly at the boy. "Because all of this is an established fact."

The boy had a question.

But then the Blank Slate Jiao Shensan continued, "The 68-year-old me, the human Jiao Shensan, has already seen everything in my memories. He knows of your appearance and that you have collected all his digital clones. Therefore, only you can ultimately gather these seven sets of data."

"And all of this began with his suicide."

"That way, you can complete all the steps while still having a lot of questions."

"This is what's called 'cause and effect,' right?"

The boy, who was casually flipping through an electronic document on his desktop, suddenly looked up and asked, "So, Jiao Shensan is using me?"

"We had no choice."

Blank Slate Jiao Shensan laugh, "Even those Information Management Bureau members you met, they were forced into it. They were very anxious, and even I am anxious right now!"

"Your Yiguan, look."

But then Blank Slate Jiao Shensan, came to the conference table and pointed to a stack of documents. "The project in there is called ' Surreal Governance,' which means that we are asleep in the Metaverse, but govern the real world through indirect technological means."

"This project aims to improve the soil on a large scale, multiplying crop yields many times over and even adapting them to various extreme conditions. Once this project is completed, the residents of Rust City will be able to eat real food and will no longer need to consume those energy blocks!"

"What this project lacks right now is Jiao Shensan's knowledge of geology and geomorphology!"

Upon hearing this, the boy slightly opened his eyes.

This actually concerns Rust City.

"Yiguan, take another look at this project."

Blank Slate Jiao Shensan, "This project is called ' War Simulation.' It has to be said that even now, conflicts still exist between countries around the world, and war could break out at any time."

"And War Simulation."

"This is based on the premise of absolute impartiality, and involves collecting information on each country's weapons reserves, weapons technology, and so on in advance."

Suppose two countries intend to go to war.

"Then the War Simulation will use sophisticated algorithms to calculate the damage rate of weapons exchanged between the two countries."

"Including casualty rate, breakout rate, probability of successful landing, extent of economic losses, etc."

"Then."

"This war will be decided without gunfire or death, and that cannot be refuted."

"This applies both in the Metaverse and in reality."

"Then, it can be done directly which country should apologize, which country should back down, and what kind of treaty should be signed."

"Hehe."

At this point, Blank Slate Jiao Shensan smiled, "I heard that Jiao Shensan has already completed preliminary calculations, concluding that China is the strongest in the world!"

then.

Blank Slate Jiao Shensan's eyes dimmed slightly. "Currently, what this technology lacks is the programming knowledge of hacker Jiao Shensan. With it, the world will definitely see a reduction in a large number of deaths and a reduction in a large number of displaced refugees."

The boy stared at the Blank Slate Jiao Shensan in front of him.

He was 66 years old and looked very much like the deceased Jiao Shensan; he was old, but his back was straight.

The first seven are the Seven Deadly Sins of mankind.

And it is a blank slate.

Perhaps if humanity removed the Seven Deadly Sins, would a little bit of... conscience remain?

Suddenly.

The boy looked up and asked, "What kind of cancer did the real Dr. Jiao Shensan have?"

"Forehead..."

Blank Slate Jiao Shensan, "Um... sorry, you must have found this amusing. You know, I don't understand anything right now... hehe."

The boy smiled and said, "It's nothing."

Immediately.

The boy handed over a black memory device.

"Here you go, these are the data from Jiao Shensan."

"After you merge, you must contribute more to humanity."

Blank Slate Jiao Shensan's eyes lit up as he stepped forward.

Then, it couldn't wait any longer and went to one side of the conference room, where there was a humanoid device. The principle was very simple; it was a reverse version of the information management 'high-tech vacuum cleaner'.

Blank Slate Jiao Shensan placed the memory into the device and then walked into the isolation chamber.

The machine started up, and countless blue codes appeared, then gathered like a storm on the Blank Slate Jiao Shensan, making its eyes appear increasingly wise.

Separated by glass.

Blank Slate Jiao Shensan, facing the boy, bowed at a 90-degree angle, his face full of gratitude.

The boy responded with a smile.

Blank Slate Jiao Shensan looked at him and felt that his smile was strange, but also normal.

But at this moment, the boy's body transformed into countless lines of code and vanished into thin air.

Blank Slate Jiao Shensan was slightly taken aback.

"Yiguan, I'm giving you this information..."

"It violated at least 30 laws, making it one of the most serious crimes of our time."

"And I'm also a police captain."

"After being executed, I have to come back to life and then execute myself again."

"Do you realize how serious this is?"

Officer Wang, puffing on his cigarette, slowly said into the communicator, "So, after you've figured out the whole case, the agreed-upon service fee will be reduced by 5,000."

The boy nodded quietly, "Okay."

"Oops, did I not bargain enough?"

"Uncle Wang, you're a policeman, after all."

"Okay, okay, here you go!"

The boy looked at the words on the communicator.

-- Central City No. 003, Residential Building E4965.

The boy narrowed his eyes.

I never expected that.

Is Dr. Jiao Shensan's physical body living right beside me?

To be precise, it's the nearest Central District!

Dr. Jiao Shensan, why did you wait until I appeared before choosing to commit suicide?

Was it really planned in advance?

There is another possibility.

because.

I am the 001 in his memory.

In the meeting room just now, during the conversation between the boy and Blank Slate Jiao Shensan, he seemed to be reading a document casually, but in fact, he was deliberately reading it.

' Jiao Shensan's Notes: About Owner No. 001 of the Brain Dark Zone.'

'001 has no record of applying for Nutrient Pod.'

'001 was able to log into the Metaverse Experimental Zone.'

'And within the entire Central District, there is no video or image recording of 001.'

'He's an Castoffs.'

'Speculation: 001 must have some method to infiltrate the Central District, possibly to steal other people's Nutrient Pod.'

A smaller line followed. "He may be the only one capable of ending it all."

The boy smiled.

There is a typo.

I don't need to 'borrow' someone else's Nutrient Pod.

But I can indeed... sneak into the Central District without anyone noticing!
