Chapter 311 Causal Dice
The conversation shifted to Jack the Ripper, and the warning of the triple shackles was lifted.

Jack the Ripper is a real person in his previous life, and he does not belong to "reincarnation information" in the strict sense, and any form of mention is not a violation.

Chino directly pointed out the key point: "When you told me about Jack the Ripper, you mentioned that she has a dice, and she used this dice to evade the catcher many times."

The look of the past is a bit strange: "It's just a legend, who knows if it's true or not, maybe Jack deliberately made up those stories in order to highlight his mystery. It's like the ancient emperors in the East who claimed to be the real dragon emperor, but Biologists have never found dragons in archaeology."

Kino really wanted to tell the past that there were dragons, and there really were dragons, but you have never seen them.

But every time he has this thought, the warning will follow him like a shadow, which means that his every move, and even any thought change caused by the brain current nerve are under the control of the supreme being.

Kino didn't get entangled in the dragon issue, and continued: "According to Jack the Ripper's literature, what is the method of using that dice? You can reproduce it completely for me."

Past: "My No.1 claim to play Jack?"

Chino: "Yes, you just think you are Jack now, and I'm catching you, how do you use this dice to escape?"

In the past, he opened the storage warehouse of the secret room, found out the packaged dice, and then coughed lightly, and said slowly: "Will I be captured by Chino today? 8."

She rolled the dice, and it landed, showing 1.

Seeing this, the past lazily spread out his hands and said: "Okay, you failed, at least today, you can't catch me anyway, not anyone else."

Kino stared at the dice, a little puzzled: "Why?"

In the past: "Because the points are not correct, the dice show a negative attitude-that is, I will not be caught by Kino today-so, even if I wander around in front of you, you can't catch me. Calling you away, an out-of-control car knocking you into the air, and even a meteorite falling from the sky... No matter what the reason is, you can’t catch me anyway.”

Chino: "I don't understand. If she is unlucky and says 8 on her mouth, and the dice also shows 8, she will definitely be captured by me?"

In the past: "First of all, you misunderstood one thing. This has nothing to do with luck, let alone gambling. It is not a question of guessing right or wrong, but a kind of "prediction".If I were to explain the definition here, it would be like a concept in dialectical materialism—the law of causality. "

"You should know that our world is a huge chaotic system, everything is moving irregularly, uncertain, unrepeatable, and unpredictable."

"But have you ever thought that the so-called chaotic system is only observed and defined from the perspective of our three-dimensional creatures. If there are higher-dimensional creatures, the basic vectors in their eyes are different, and the things they observe are also different? Maybe all What seems random and unpredictable is actually a fixed program that cannot be detected from a three-dimensional perspective."

Without any warning, Kino drew out his dagger, stabbed his palm, and then showed the bloody wound to the past: "You mean, my behavior that comes from a single thought is also a fixed procedure?"

In the past, while bandaging Kino's hand, he lazily said: "Now you stab yourself without warning in order to prove the unpredictability of the chaotic system. In your eyes, this is a temporary, completely random and unpredictable behavior. .”

"But in fact, the fact that you suddenly stabbed yourself may have been doomed long ago. The 'unpredictability' you thought was just a well-written program that was triggered at a specific point in time. The person who wrote the program You can see it clearly, but you can’t perceive it yourself.”

Kino shook his head: "This is idealism, which completely negates the objective existence of human beings, and is already out of the category of materialism."

In the past, he shook his head and said: "Materialism, idealism. These are just philosophical schools, defined from the perspective of humans. If the legend about Jack is true, if you want to understand it, you must separate yourself from the perspective of humans— —You regard yourself as a god, an omnipotent god, and don’t be bound by any so-called human ethics and scientific axioms.”

Kino closed his eyes and remained silent for a moment, then opened them and nodded, indicating that he had changed his mind.

The past: "Then let's continue. As I just said, Jack's dice has nothing to do with luck. It doesn't mean that guessing right is rewarded, and guessing wrong is unlucky. It just provides a channel for Jack, so that she can use the points of the dice to predict. The outcome of something—in layman’s terms, foreseeing the future.”

"That is to say, the result of the dice prediction has long been doomed. It just tells you the result through points. For example, the result that I will not be caught by you today has been determined. I The number spoken in the mouth is 8, and the dice expresses negation, so the number it throws must not be 8, even if I throw it a thousand times ten thousand times, I will only get 123456790, not 8."

Whether this dice is really as miraculous as it was said in the past, Kino doesn't know for the time being.

If it is true, it would be too exaggerated. This is already a power that completely surpasses cognition. Let alone in the previous life, even in the extraordinary world, it is an unimaginable power.

Moreover, Kino had a vague premonition that this kind of power might really exist.
In the game he and Bolton set up before, the whole set of schemes was closely linked, and there was no flaw in it, but the reincarnated people were hundreds of miles away, and they had no spiritual powers, so they somehow saw through the scheme and insisted on not taking the bait.

If there is this dice
Not to mention in the past, this dice is just a medium, it is just a very ordinary dice, there is nothing special about it, but Jack who has that kind of power just chose to throw the dice to display his ability.

Strictly speaking, dice are not a necessity, but just Jack's personal hobby. She can completely replace it with any method such as tossing coins, drawing lots, or drawing lots.

An opponent who can predict the future. This is too outrageous, this is no longer the power of the same dimension.

Kino thought for a long time, and then asked: "I have a question, assuming that I am Jack, after predicting the future, can I use specific means to modify the future result?"

Past: "What do you mean?"

Chino: "In the theory of causality, cause and effect are a kind of cycle. If Jack foresees the 'effect', he should be able to change the 'effect' by modifying the 'cause'."

"For example, Jack is going to city A today, but she knows through the dice that if he goes to city A, he will be caught by the arrester, so she directly modifies the 'cause' - he will not go to city A today - so that, There is no 'fruit' of 'Jack was caught by a catcher in City A'."

In the past, he simply shook his head: "No."

Chino: "Why not?"

Past: "First of all, you imagine the world as a program without any bugs. Then you think, as a piece of code in the program, even if you can see other codes, can you modify them?"

Chino: "Then what I just mentioned about city A is a paradox?"

In the past: "It's not a paradox. Suppose Jack knows that she will be arrested in city A today, it is logically judged that as long as she does not go to city A today, she will not be arrested - but in fact, this cannot be done. established."

"The future 'effect' has been determined. No matter how Jack modifies the 'cause', he will eventually reach that effect. She tries her best not to go to city A, but she will eventually arrive there for various reasons—such as the city she lives in. Suddenly there was an earthquake, and all the residents were forced to transfer to city A; for example, she boarded a plane and wanted to escape to other places, but the plane broke down and had to make an emergency landing in city A; Find clues and come to arrest her, she was forced to run away all the way, and finally caught in city A"

"Once the 'fruit' is doomed, there is no way to modify it."

Chino: "Then what's the use of this dice or Jack's power? Since the outcome cannot be changed once it is doomed, then if Jack foresees something that is not good for her, she can't make any changes. That power Can it be of any real use?"

In the past: "Strictly speaking, from the perspective of pure profit, it is really useless. But that power is terrible because it denies the unpredictability of this world. Do you understand what this means? It means that this world It doesn't make any sense, everyone is a program, fate is predestined, your every move is programmed."

"Others can't foresee their own destiny, but Jack can. Even if she can't change her destiny, "foreseeing" itself is already a power beyond imagination. She directly peeped into the unknown horror of this world law.It can even be said that she has a pair of god-like eyes and can see cause and effect!Isn't this scary? "

Kino fell into long thought.

Those metaphysical things—whether the world is a program, whether human beings have objective existence, whether everything is real or not. These Kino don’t care. A person without empathy will not feel solemn about any existence, nor will he Fear the truth.

The only thing Kino cares about is Jack's power, and the essence dismantled under that power.

see cause and effect
Chino asked slowly: "So, regarding Jack's ability, can I sum it up in one sentence - she can see the future, but cannot influence the future."

In the past, he snapped his fingers: "100% accurate."

Chino: "In other words, what she foresees will definitely happen, and no one can change it."

Past: "That's right."

Kino chuckled lightly and joked, "If I were her, I'd be playing dice every day."

Past suddenly jumped up, waving his arms in a "boom" motion, and said with a playful smile, "Surprise! This topic is finally here, don't you think there is no limit to this ability?"

Kino was stunned for a moment, and said angrily, "Can you finish the conversation at once next time?"

Previously, he purposely made a fool of himself and said lazily, "Such an interesting thing, of course we have to talk about it slowly. Suppose there are creatures that transcend dimensions in this world, let's call them gods, and the law of causality is the manuscript written by the gods." , it’s not something that mortals can peek at if they want to.”

"At least in the letter left by Jack the Ripper, there is a mention of this dice—or the restrictions on the use of this ability."

Chino: "Say it quickly, or your salary will be gone."

In the past: "Limit one, time. Jack can only foresee what will happen within today based on 0:[-] midnight."

"Like she asked 'will I get caught today', okay."

"But if she asks 'Will I get caught,' no."

"The word 'today' must be added, and nothing beyond 0:[-] midnight can be foreseen."

Kino thought for a while: "Even if there is such a time rule, if she foresees different things several times a day, theoretically speaking, the restriction will not exist."

"Limit two, the number of times." The past interrupted Chino's thoughts, "Jack's ability can only be used twice a day, so he can't do infinite foresight."

Kino nodded, the number of times plus time is already quite a weakness, but he also thought of another possible "cheating" method, and asked in a deep voice: "If Jack puts the dice?"

"Restriction three, user." The past quickly picked up the topic, "I told you before that what really matters is Jack's ability, not the dice itself, so it is useless for other people to hold the dice, so there is no need to use the dice." There is a cheating method of passing the dice to someone else to bypass the limit."

Without Kino's reminder, Pastor continued: "There is one last limitation, and it is also a very critical one. Jack's ability can only foresee 'himself'."

Kino murmured: "Myself."

Nodding in the past: "That's right, she can only use herself as the main perspective to predict the future. In other words, the question format must be 'how am I today'."

"For example, she asks 'Will I die today?', 'Will I be killed by Kino today?', 'Will Kino be killed by me today?'. These questions involve 'I' , is all possible."

"But if she asks 'Will Chino die today?', 'Will the past die today?', 'Will the dog neighbor upstairs who karaokes in the middle of the night die today?'. These don't involve 'me' There will be no answers to the questions.”

Kino kept all these restrictions in mind, and in order to avoid panting when he spoke in the past, he specifically asked: "Is it gone?"

Past shrugged: "No, these four restrictions are mentioned in Jack's left hand letter. If there are any restrictions, it can only be that she didn't write them."

Chino nodded silently: "Understood, the answer is much better than I expected, at least let me know that this is not an unsolvable opponent."

Suddenly, the past reached out to hold Kino's shoulders, and the expression of the old hippie smile has long since disappeared, replaced by an unprecedented seriousness and profoundness: "Be careful, I know you very well, you don't know how to respect those unknown people. This is your greatest weakness."

"Always remember that what you are facing is not only the serial killer who made the entire fog tremble back then, she is also the first generation leader of our organization, a terrifying existence who can foresee the future."

"So... put away your arrogance and be careful."
