my world my king

The egg-shaped consciousness compartment split into four like petals and split from the middle, the nutrient solution in the compartment poured onto the ground, and was quickly sucked dry like a sponge, leaving no trace of liquid.

Li Wei stood wet in the middle of the eggshell, like a newborn baby that broke out of its shell. The 360-degree bathing equipment around the consciousness cabin automatically turned on, and water mist sprayed out. After 3 minutes, Li Wei was washed clean and covered with quilts. Wear soft casual clothes and comfortable shoes.

Li Wei walked out of the storage area of ​​the consciousness cabin, went to his office chair and sat down. The wall in front of him was automatically lit up. It was a huge screen, and data and graphs of various colors flowed rapidly on the screen.

After watching it for a while, Li Wei began to lose his mind, and the flowing data stopped, as if he was waiting for him to regain his mind.

"Anyone leave a message for me?" Li Wei leaned back on the back of the chair, and the chair automatically deformed and adjusted to a massage chair suitable for lying down.

"No." Zhinao said considerately, "But colleagues are very worried about you. As long as you set the status of the studio to welcome visitors, they will come to visit you immediately."

"Forget it. I'll see them after I read the memory."

The colleagues mentioned by Zhinao refer to colleagues in the same department, people who work together.We have a good relationship, but we don't have many personal acquaintances. We are not full of friends above acquaintances. When we are together, we talk about work the most.Every time someone comes back from the world of creation, everyone's topic is the story of the world of creation.

Four hours later, Li Wei retrieved the memory of his experience in the 503 creation world—the version without emotion.

Memories poured into his brain quickly, as if he was watching a movie that made people play.

The movie itself is fine, it just doesn't feel real.And this sense of distortion is exactly the purpose of taking out the emotions in memory.

Because for people in the world of creation who need to experience countless lives, feelings are a burden and a drag.

When the construction industry is immature, more than 99% of practitioners have psychological problems.

It's all because I'm too deep into the play to be able to play.In mild cases, they are depressed, and in severe cases, they may even commit suicide because they confuse virtual reality with reality.

"I want to get back the emotional version of the memory." Li Wei said.

Zhinao counted the ways to get back the emotional version of the memory, and asked, "Do you want to resign?"

The creation world defaults that practitioners must act rationally without emotional burden, so incumbents cannot obtain emotional memory.But if you're changing careers, and you insist on getting your relationship back, then your wish will be granted.Of course, if you have psychological problems due to those feelings in the future, you have to bear the consequences yourself.

"I'm actually not suitable for this job." Li Wei said.

"You do better than most people."

"It has nothing to do with doing well or badly. If I do something else, I will do well."

Zhinao laughed dryly: "What I admire most about you is that you are full of confidence."

"You're laughing at me. Am I setting your humanity too high?"

"Probably not, after all, you can do well in everything."

Li Wei laughed, and stopped arguing with Zhinao, but said: "You should have seen my memory in the creation world just now, what do you think?"

"Your memory has a lot of loss, which may be caused by the damage of consciousness. However, your memory of falling in love is not lost. It seems that you have preserved this part of memory very well."

Li Wei retorted: "Maybe those lost memories are more in-depth versions of love and romance?"

"So, you have nothing serious to do but fall in love. Or is falling in love your business?"

"You are so humorous." Li Wei smiled, "Contact Bai Qi for me."

Zhinao saw Li Wei's memory in the creation world and knew who Bai Qi was.

"Okay." Almost immediately, Zhinao said, "He blocked the signals of strangers as always."

Li Wei laughed helplessly: "As always, he is an isolated island that no one can approach."

Zhinao comforted him: "This is good news: no one else can get close to him, and he will remain single as always until you find a way to go ashore."

"Do you think he will check the memory this time?" Li Wei felt that as long as Bai Qi looked at the memory, although it was a memory without emotion, the ambiguity between them in the world of creation could not be ignored, so he used this as a breakthrough point. There should be some progress in their relationship.

"If he is interested enough in Zuo Hong's case, he should check his memory." Zhinao analyzed.

Li Wei was dissatisfied: "Why can't you be interested in me?"

The brain is silent, it knows that Li Wei doesn't want to listen to it analyze the data now.

Li Wei followed the brain's train of thought for a while, and suspected that Bai Qi had little interest in Zuo Hong's affairs.

As far as he knew, Bai Qi never checked his memory in the creation world.This habit is actually good - for Li Wei, it is his desire for monopoly, and he hopes that the percentage of himself in Bai Qi's memory can be larger.

Bai Qi should not be willing to look at the memory just because his partner is Li Wei, or in other words, just because his partner is Li Wei, it is even more impossible to make an exception.

"He doesn't look at his own memory, but maybe he is willing to look at mine?" Li Wei said to himself.

Zhinao said: "This kind of behavior is too intimate."

"Intimacy is good." Li Wei smiled, a little silly.

Brain quickly scanned its mentally handicapped owner, and the results showed that both the brain and body were fine.

"What I mean is: he avoids intimacy."

Li Wei sighed as if waking up from a dream.

"Come to work, work fills me up. Contact Kay for me, see if he is free now, I want to talk to him."

"Ok."

Kai is a senior figure in the fortune maker department. Like Zuo Hong, he is the veteran of Wanwu Company, but he is much more reliable than Zuo Hong. He is like a consultant in the department. No matter who has a problem, he can solve it. Ask him for advice.

This time, Kai participated in the investigation of Zuo Hong's illegal entry into the creation world and the murder of his colleagues.

When Li Wei just returned to the real world and before the memory was archived, Kai chatted with him for a while, because his consciousness was weak at that time, so Kai quickly let him recover.

Kai immediately replied that he was free and sent a virtual room number.

Li Wei gave a verbal command to Zhinao: "Log in."

"Ok."

A helmet protruded from Li Wei's chair and covered his head.His consciousness logged into the network, and then he appeared in a garden-like virtual space, where the sun was abundant and the flowers were intoxicating. He looked around and saw a red-haired boy sitting on a swing under a tree, and walked over: "Kai. "

Kai has always appeared in front of people as a teenager.

Li Wei guessed that it was either his personal preference or his racial characteristics.

The red-haired boy raised his head and smiled, "Welcome back, Li Wei."

"You've already said it." When Li Wei had just returned from the world of creation.

"Have you checked the memory?" The meeting between the two when Li Wei just came back was also archived.

"I see. But my memory is incomplete. What about the others, are they all right?"

"It's all right."

"That's good." Li Wei laughed, looking very happy.He sat down on another swing next to him, held the swing rope with his hands, kicked his feet on the ground, and the swing swayed happily.

Kai's smile deepened, and he asked with concern: "How do you feel now? Has the damaged consciousness been repaired?"

"10% to 30% damage, I was a bit scared, but it has been repaired and I feel good now."

"The damage is very high. Fortunately, you are fine. You are very strong. You are the only one who survived the shooting of the soul destroying gun and the collapse of the world."

Kay is also of the "consciousness is life" school.The founders mostly held this view.

Consciousness exists in human beings, and the disappearance of consciousness is equal to the death of human beings.

In their view, digital consciousness is simply artificial intelligence.A person with a digital consciousness is just a high imitation version of a real person. The biggest flaw of a high imitation is that it cannot create things.

Because of this flaw, the creators would remain skeptical even if digital consciousness were accepted throughout the universe.

Li Wei smiled embarrassingly: "You are too much."

Kai shook his head: "I'm putting it lightly. It's two world collapses, one can kill people, and two times can't survive."

The memories of colleagues in the same project team as Li Wei show that Li Wei survived the two world collapses alone until the end.

When the first world collapsed, Li Wei was even left alone in the world of creation.The result of the second time was better, the channel was connected in time, and everyone returned to the real world smoothly.

"I don't remember the collapse of the world, but the taste of the soul-killing gun should be very unpleasant." Li Wei checked the memory before not only without emotion, but also without pain, but it should be very painful to look at the picture.

Kai nodded: "The pain level of the soul destroying gun is said to be equivalent to the pain level of the body collapse."

Li Wei recalled that Bai Qi's body had collapsed when he was Lian Tianheng, and he blurted out: "Is Bai Qi really alright?"

"Bai Qi, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't even know that haogrnyw4891's name is Bai Qi." The red-haired boy said with a teasing smile, "Of course he's fine. Everyone else is sealed in amber, but he's the only one who is held in your arms." .”

"I don't remember, I don't have this memory." Li Wei smiled dryly, "What happened before I came back? Can you tell me?"

Li Wei's memory only ended when the virus merged and tried to make trouble in the creation world, and the subsequent memory was lost due to the damage of consciousness.

"Judging from haogrnyw4891's memory, you persevered to the end. We speculate that you should have eliminated or sealed the virus, and then restarted the world of creation. After the passage was opened, when I took people down to check the situation, you, haogrnyw4891 and Zuo Hong were in the same situation. In a coma, everyone else stays intact in your amber."

"You didn't find the virus at the time?" Li Wei asked.

Kai shook his head.

Li Wei frowned: "I'm a little worried that it's still in that world."

"It's okay, no one will enter the 503 creation world in the short term."

With so many accidents happening in this world, no one would go in and seek death until they were sure it was absolutely safe.

"Zuo Hong should have a way to find the virus. There seems to be a special connection between him and the virus." Li Wei said.

"His consciousness is more severely damaged than yours, and his memory loss is also more serious. I guess he can't help with this matter. Would you like to tell me what you know about Zuo Hong?"

In fact, Zuo Hong's consciousness has been damaged to as high as 80%, and he has lost his self-repair function. From Kai's point of view, he is already "dead".However, it is inconvenient to tell Li Wei about this aspect for the time being, because he is the person involved in the case.

From the perspective of those who support the digitalization of consciousness, Zuo Hong actually still has a chance to repair his consciousness—to use the backup digital consciousness to repair it.

However, because Zuo Hong is being investigated, it is not possible to determine whether to restore his digital consciousness until the results of the investigation come out.If it is determined that he has committed a felony, he will lose the opportunity to digitize, which means that he will die completely.

But even if Zuo Hong's consciousness is repaired, his memory will not come back.Because memory is dependent on consciousness, the so-called "without the skin, the hair will not be attached", the basic consciousness has already gone wrong, how can the memory attached to it be intact.

Li Wei was silent for a while and then said: "Zuo Hong is my biological father. The place I stayed most often when I was a child was the laboratory. He locked me in a closed instrument. The longest time should have been more than a month. I was six years old, and it's strange that I survived..."

Li Wei shuddered.

Kai said softly: "You can stop what you don't want to say."

"It's okay. In fact, I don't remember much, and I don't have anything to remember. It's the same day, day after day."

Li Wei also talked about some memory fragments.

"Have you ever considered suing him for child abuse?" Kay asked.

Abuse incidents are very important cases. As long as the parties file a lawsuit, generally speaking, they will get a relatively satisfactory solution.

Li Wei said: "My childhood experience was quite complicated. After escaping from Zuo Hong's laboratory, I climbed onto a cargo spaceship, which was robbed by star robbers halfway, because I was hiding in the cargo hold, so I was also taken away by the Star Thief. I lived with the Star Thief for four years. Later they were besieged by the army, and I returned to normal society.

"After returning to the normal society, I was busy adapting to the new life. At that time, Zuo Hong was on a distant planet a few light years away. I had no time to miss him, and I didn't want to remember him. I don’t want to think about the complicated issue of whether to sue him.”

A gust of wind blew by, and there was a shower of petals. Li Wei stretched out his hand to grab a petal, pinched it between his fingers, held the petal under his nose and smelled it, then let go of it and let it go.

"I should have seen a real flower for the first time when I was nine years old. There was a star thief who was a plant lover and planted a few pots of plants... Sorry, I'm getting too far."

Kai shook his head: "It's okay. Are you going to sue Zuo Hong for his previous abuse?"

Li Wei sat in the wind and thought for a while, then said: "No. Just sue him for the murder this time. He used a soul-killing gun. I think he really wants to kill me."

If Zuo Hong was sued for abusing him when he was a child, then he would have to provide his memories of that year as evidence.He didn't want to do this, and he would never allow anyone to review his childhood memories anyway.

If Zuo Hong knew this, he probably wouldn't have chased him down.Zuo Hong pursued and killed him just because he didn't want to ruin his reputation—at least at first.If Zuo Hong knew that he didn't intend to threaten himself with the events of the past, he probably wouldn't take the risk.

Kaidao: "Some investigators believe that Zuo Hong didn't necessarily use the soul-destroying gun to kill you—he only fired one shot, which would not cause death to the Creator with strong consciousness, but constituted intentional injury. crime. He may just be trying to threaten you, such as threatening you not to sue him. But because you are both impaired in consciousness and incomplete memory, this view cannot be proven."

"Then he used viruses to try to cause the world of creation to collapse? Is he trying to kill me?"

"It can't be proven either. He put the virus into the creation world, but it can't be proved that he did it to kill you."

"So you mean he's just trying to threaten me?"

"It's not what I mean, it's someone who has this idea."

Li Wei raised the corners of his mouth and smiled: "I understand. In short, there is no doubt about the crime, and the murder is not established."

"This is the result deduced from your existing memories."

Li Wei's archived memory is only Zuo Hong's memory of shooting him, as for what they talked about before the shooting, he couldn't save it.However, even if those memories remain, it will be troublesome. What kind of master key, core code, no matter whether it is true or not, such things are too eye-catching.

"Where is Yu Qing? Does his memory help the case?" Li Wei asked.

Yu Qing is Duan Gang's identity in the real world.

"His memory does not involve conscious murder. It can be said that he is very loyal to Zuo Hong, and he especially listens to Zuo Hong—following orders regardless of the reason." Kai then took the initiative, "Aisha and Alec's memory There is no evidence of murder either."

Aisha is Zhong Yi, and Alec is He Sicheng.

Li Wei sighed: "Okay."

"Don't be too pessimistic. Even if it can't be proved that Zuo Hong wants to kill you, his crimes of spreading high-risk viruses, smuggling and abusing high-risk weapons, illegally invading the world of creation, and intentional injury are enough to prevent him from using digital consciousness restoration."

Digital Consciousness Restoration is a medical entrustment service. If a person who has purchased this service loses or is severely damaged in consciousness, a professional organization can restore his digital consciousness—implanting a backup digital consciousness into his brain.

But a dangerous criminal has no right to this service.Otherwise, wouldn't it be equivalent to allowing high-risk criminals to live forever?Normal people would never allow this to happen.

"What will happen to Yu Qing and Aisha? Aisha helped me." Li Wei said.

"Aisha is fine, she was cheated, but she is smart and woke up early. Yu Qing is an accomplice, and she will definitely go to jail for a while."

Li Wei nodded.

Kai laughed: "Do you know what impressed me the most about this incident?"

"What?" Li Wei asked calmly.

"That's a creator." Kai sighed exaggeratedly and heavily, "Are you sure that your reason is not dominated by the desire to conquer?"

Li Wei was startled for a moment, then laughed loudly: "Not sure."

"Then you came to Wanwu Company only for haogrnyw4891?"

"Well, I just came here for haogrnyw4891. I've been looking for him for a long time. As for Zuo Hong is also in Wanwu Company, to me, it's just a coincidence. I can't give up the person I like just to avoid an annoying coincidence."

Kai nodded: "Yes, you can't give up the flower you like just because there is a pile of shit next to it. It's just, creator... your taste is a bit special."

Li Wei smiled and said, "Yes. That's why I'm considering resigning."

"what?!"

"We work in two departments that discriminate against each other, which is not conducive to developing relationships,"

"...I suggest you take some time off to clear your head."
