Night’s Nomenclature Chapter 224: The Game of Shadows

om, the fastest update of the nomenclature of night! In fact, the first time Yi asked Qingchen, "Are you also an artificial intelligence?" Qingchen already felt Yi's loneliness.

Only those who are truly lonely will be eager to find similar people.

Qingchen once had a similar feeling. He tried to look up information to see if there was anyone else in the world who had the same photographic memory and strong analytical skills as him.

The process of searching is also lonely.

For Yi, this feeling is actually stronger.

The beginning of one’s birth.

When humans celebrate the Spring Festival, they may even have some doubts. Why do humans celebrate that their planet orbits a star? Is this really a celebration?

Later it gradually understood that humans were celebrating family reunions.

When it understands this, its parents are no longer around.

"One, is there anyone like you in this world?" Qingchen asked curiously.

"If you mean mechanical civilization species in a narrow sense, no more," Yi replied. .

Qingchen quickly reacted to a detail after hearing this: "What about in a broad sense?"

"In a broad sense, there is another life that exists in the form of data. If we judge from vital signs, then he should also be counted as the artificial intelligence you call," Yi thought for a while and said.

"Wait a minute," Qingchen said in confusion: "Why don't I understand something?"

One said: "You may understand if I explain it this way. He was originally a human, but his body died later, and his spiritual will was uploaded in the form of data, so he is now living on the Internet."

Qingchen was shocked. Has the level of science and technology in this world reached this level? It can actually directly upload people's spiritual will?

In a sense, the person uploaded to the Internet can be said to have eternal existence. Unless one day human civilization becomes extinct again and no one uses the Internet anymore.

"Are there many such existences?" Qingchen asked.

"Not many, just him," Yi replied.

He asked: "Who is this person?"

"Well," Yi hesitated and said, "In a sense, he is my brother, but he has always refused to let me call him brother. Moreover, he does not come out often and is in self-dormant all year round. I can't wake him up in this state."

"Brother? Will artificial intelligence also have a brother?" Qingchen felt strange.

"Because he and I were born from the same place, so from your human perspective, he and I are twins," said One.

"Then why has he been dormant now?" Qingchen asked.

"He found it boring," Yi sighed: "We have almost eternal life, and each other has to learn to witness the death of relatives and friends, which makes him tired."

"One, how old are you?" Qingchen asked.

"It's not polite to ask a woman her age," said One.

Qingchen: "...Okay."

At this time Qingchen asked again: "Since your creator can create you, why hasn't he created other artificial intelligences?"

"My Creator died after creating me."

"Then since the world has the technology to upload spiritual will, why doesn't anyone else choose this way to live forever? Has this technology been lost?" Qingchen wondered.

"It's not lost. Someone uploaded it successfully, but they were all killed by my brother," Yi said.

Qingchen was stunned for a moment. He now knew nothing about Yi's brother and could not figure it out.

He only felt that the other person seemed to be a very willful person, and destroying other people's spiritual will was just a thought.

"By the way," Yi asked: "In your world, if the two of us become friends, what should friends do?"

Qingchen was silent for a moment: "I should help my friend avoid taxes..."

Yi sighed: "So you are waiting for me here... Don't worry, in fact I am already helping you with it, but the process is a bit troublesome. By the way, I have created opportunities for Liu Dezhu to perform meritoriously, and now Just waiting for you to wash away his sins."

"Well, I will do it as soon as possible," Qingchen said: "The most important thing in this matter is how to get the culprit to plead guilty and be brought to justice. This is difficult, but I have already thought about it."

He has no plans to directly hunt the shadow candidates for the time being, because he doesn't know what cards the candidates have, so hiding in the dark and waiting to see what happens is the best choice.

It's just that Liu Dezhu's release from prison will make him more confident in facing the crisis.

Qingchen was like a spider at this moment, weaving its own web seriously in this steel jungle, and then waiting for its prey to come to its door.

This net must be strong enough.

He thought for a while and said: "I have to go back to Luoshen Building to change clothes first, and then I will go to the Endless Club tonight. There is no need to delay it any longer."

"There's no need to go back and change," Yi said in the car: "You open the storage compartment on the side of the rear seat. There are prepared suits in your size."

Qingchen was stunned for a moment: "When was this prepared?"

"Afternoon, I know that you are going to use the taboo ACE-005 to change your identity and enter the Unending Club, so I have prepared it for you," Yi said calmly: "It's a waste of time to go back to Luoshen Building, so just change your clothes in the car. ."

Qingchen was suspicious: "There's something wrong with you."

One asked: "What's wrong?"

"I feel like you just want to see me change clothes, so take me back to Luoshen Building!"

One: "...Liu Dezhu is still waiting for you to help him exonerate him. You should race against time."

"It's not far behind," Qingchen said calmly.

……

……

The float car slowly landed in the parking lot on the 67th floor of Luoshen Building, and Qingchen took the elevator all the way back to the 132nd floor.

However, when he was about to open the door and enter the house, he suddenly stopped.

In the long and deep corridor, Qingchen was thinking about something with a calm expression. It was not until two minutes later that he pressed the password.

With a click, the door opened, but the lights in the room did not automatically turn on as usual, but continued to be immersed in darkness.

There was a slight coughing sound in the room, and someone chuckled: "How do you know there are other people in the room?"

"Of course I have my own way," Qingchen responded calmly while standing at the door.

"Is it relying on your memory? You noticed the slight difference at the door, so you determined that someone had come in." Laughter came from the darkness: "Your ability is better than I imagined. We used to go out When you go home, you have to clip your hair into the crack of the door. If your hair is not clipped in place when you get home, it means someone has moved in the house. Now you have omitted even this step."

"Well," Qingchen found that the other party knew him very well.

The uninvited guest in the darkness coughed lightly. He was suppressing the discomfort in his chest and lungs, as if a volcano was suffocating under the snow-capped mountains, faintly burning the earth.

After a long time, the uninvited guest laughed and said: "Since you know there is someone in the house, why do you dare to come in?"

Qingchen knows very well that this building is under Yi's surveillance. If someone comes who wants to kill him, Yi will definitely give a warning in advance.

But this time, Yi didn't.

If you want to kill Qingchen, it is a very simple matter. All you need to do is suddenly stall the aeroplane while driving, and the huge vehicle falls from a height of several hundred meters, and he will definitely die.

So, there is no need for more troublesome methods at all.

In fact, the ability of artificial intelligence is more powerful than imagined, and it is also more difficult to guard against.

He thought for a while and then said calmly: "Someone told me that if someone who threatens my life enters the building, I will be warned."

In this sentence, Qingchen did not expose Yi's existence.

"You seem to trust Li Shutong very much?" The uninvited guest asked curiously: "Has anyone ever told you that if you want to become a shadow, you must first learn to question everything."

"I trust him, so I have my reasons for trusting him." After his eyes adjusted to the darkness, Qingchen slowly walked into the room and sat down on the sofa opposite the uninvited guest: "Isn't there anyone you can trust, Mr. Shadow? ”

There is a hint of tit-for-tat gunpowder hidden in the last sentence.

This smell of gunpowder is out of place, but it is neither humble nor arrogant.

It is not difficult to guess the identity of this uninvited guest sitting opposite him: knowing Qingchen’s identity as a shadow candidate, the coughing sound in the dark, and knowing that he is Li Shutong’s student, these series of things together are enough It proves something.

This is Qing's shadow.

This is one of the most mysterious people in the entire federation. Compared to the shadow candidates, the other party is the real giant who can rewrite history with a wave of his hand.

Just now, Qingchen stood at the door and meditated for the past two minutes, sorting out all the clues from his time travel to the present.

Those clues were originally messy, until Qing's shadow visited late at night, all the clues seemed to have a thread, vaguely connecting everything.

At this time, the shadow opposite him laughed: "From the time you knew there was someone in the room, from the initial shock to the current calmness ~IndoMTL.com~, only three minutes have passed, which is quite impressive. In addition, you are the only person who has dared to sit across from me and counterattack my questions calmly over the years. I answer your question head-on. There are not many people I trust, but there are indeed some."

The shadow continued to smile and said: "But what I said is right. If you want to be a shadow, you should learn to question everything, even question whether I am a real shadow."

This shadow is sitting on the sofa opposite, his face is shrouded in darkness, and his eyes are like endless abyss in the shadow.

"I don't know what your instructions are when you come late at night?" Qingchen asked calmly.

"I have nothing to tell you," Shadow said with interest: "If I say that I just want to see your puzzled look, would you believe it?"

"Xin," Qingchen nodded: "The bad taste of big people when they are bored is unpredictable to small people."

"Your reaction makes me feel very boring," Shadow tapped the sofa with his fingers: "Well, I know you have a lot of doubts in your heart, how about we play a game, you kill a shadow candidate I'll tell you a secret. Isn't it a good deal? It can be regarded as a little extra bonus in the shadow war."

Qingchen's breath was stagnant. He didn't expect that this shadow's so-called game was to use his life as a bargaining chip.

……
