404 No City Found

At two o'clock in the morning, Building No. [-], West District.

[-] is an overly sparsely populated city. Most of the buildings here are empty, and even the doors have never been opened, but this does not mean that they can enter and exit these places at will. After entering the certificate, Building No. [-] in the West District is such a building.

Zhao Zheng and Kang Tu drank some wine in the evening, and they were still pushing glasses in the park after twelve o'clock, and stumbled back to the dormitory at one o'clock in the morning. They didn't stay for half an hour, and went to the supermarket to buy wine. Falling drunk in the garden bushes, Kang Tu glanced at the time, and quietly pushed Zhao Zheng: "Wake up, wake up, wake up, it's almost time."

Zhao Zheng shook his head, his eyes were not yet focused, and he said after a long time, "I'm too drunk."

Kang Tu couldn't help laughing, and stretched out his hand in front of his eyes: "How much is this?"

"Three." Zhao Zheng said deliberately.

Kang Tu immediately added another finger: "You guessed it."

Zhao Zheng pulled it over with a smile and held it weakly: "Pull me, I can't drink."

"I drank too much." Kang Tu said and pulled him up vigorously, and the two hid beside the bushes. Building No. [-] was in front of him. Kang Tu was a little nervous and asked, "Do I smell of alcohol?"

"I can't smell it," said Zhao Zheng, "we drank it together."

Kang Tu couldn't help it, he always felt that they came out too recklessly, and he was afraid they were going to die, but Zhao Zheng suddenly patted him, a figure walked to the door, and the automatic facial recognition made a "ding" sound, and opened a door , the man walked in.

Kang Tu squinted his eyes and couldn't see clearly, so he asked Zhao Zheng, "Who is it?"

"Xu Daming," Zhao Zheng said, looking upstairs, holding on to the tree trunk, his voice was a little drunk, "what is he doing here?"

Kang Tu: "What did you say?"

"What's wrong?" Zhao Zheng asked with a gentle smile.

Kang Tu turned his head back and said, "It's nothing."

It turns out that Zhao Zheng can still talk to himself when he is drunk, which is quite cute. Kang Tu thought to himself and wanted to continue listening, so he asked, "What should we do?"

"What should I do?" Zhao Zheng repeated, "I'll think about it."

Kang Tu was about to die of laughter, and said, "Then think about it carefully."

Zhao Zheng murmured: "We have no way to rush in, as long as we enter this building, the alarm will be set off, we can wait for him to come down, see how long he has been up there and judge what he has done, but we cannot easily go to him , because I don’t know which camp he belongs to, maybe he has some monitoring equipment on him, we can’t use the method of facing mountains and lakes against him.”

Kang Tu said, "You're quite sober."

"Yeah," said Zhao Zheng, "do you think I'm drunk?"

"Of course not." Kang Tu said.

Zhao Zheng whispered: "Do you still remember that sentence on the screen in the square?"

Kang Tu believed that Zhao Zheng was really not drunk this time, and said, "Xu Daming is an undercover agent?!"

"Otherwise, no one will come to see us," Zhao Zheng understood as he spoke, "wait, someone will show up later, and they want to show us a play."

Kang Tu understood what he meant. On the screen in Clock Square, the murderer once said: "This is a real undercover game."

Kang Tu's ability is undoubtedly very interesting to the other party. They really want to recruit them, but they have been blocked by Zhao Zheng. Now Zhao Zheng is actively contacting them. They need to gain their trust, and the best way to gain trust is to put All truth lies directly before their eyes.

Five minutes and 43 seconds later——Kang Tu precisely pinched the stopwatch, and Xu Daming walked out. His hands were empty, and he trotted down the steps in two steps. Seeing that he was about to leave his sight, Kang Tu was a little anxious and frowned slightly. He frowned.

At this moment, I saw him slowly raising his hands and taking a step back.

Kang Tu and Zhao Zheng realized at the same time that in the darkness a tall man was wearing a cloak, covering his face, holding a gun in his hand, and pointed the black muzzle at Xu Daming's head.

Xu Daming raised his hands, indicating that he didn't intend to do anything, and said, "Brother, relax, do you know where this is?"

"The place where you betrayed your friends," the man said, obviously using a voice-changing device, and he looked hoarse. "How is it? Is there anyone suspicious recently?"

Xu Daming said: "It's all for survival, why bother? This building is full of surveillance cameras, you can hear needles falling, and firepower will be everywhere in less than 2 minutes. I advise you to leave now, otherwise we will both be finished." .”

"Thank you," the man said, "It's not the first time I've heard this sentence."

Xu Daming's expression changed.He heard his overtones.

That person: "Have you guys gone through induction training? Heizhi Changzhi is exactly what you said."

Kang Tu immediately looked at Zhao Zheng, Zhao Zheng shook his head lightly to calm him down.

Xu Daming said: "Hei Chi Chang Zhi was killed by you, you are the murderer, and now the whole city is looking for you."

"Chatting with you is always too boring," the man said, "You know, I will never be able to let you understand how you died, because you have always been so ignorant."

He stepped forward, Xu Daming took a step back subconsciously, the gun in the man's hand shook slightly: "Don't move."

When he got closer, Xu Daming suddenly saw his face clearly, and was about to speak, but his watch was snatched away. The man flipped it over and said, "Ten thousand? I'm really sorry, brother, your amount Sentence enough."

Xu Daming held a gun on his head, his eyes froze, he shot his hand suddenly, the pistol fell to the ground, Xu Daming pressed him to death against the wall, and calmly said: "You shouldn't be so close to me."

The man looked at him and said, "You shouldn't check how many guns I have."

A muffled sound tore through the darkness, Xu Daming took a step back and touched the bloody hole in his abdomen.

The man put away the gun, looked down at Xu Daming, and said, "We only have the death penalty here, and it's all for survival. I believe you can understand."

The more Kang Tu listened, the more he felt the tone was very familiar. Xu Daming, who was in front of him, didn't make another sound, knelt on the ground, and fell to the ground with a muffled sound.

There must be a problem with the monitoring, Kang Tu thought, he watched the man turn around, took off the cloak hat, and said to them: "Come out, friends."

Standing under the light, he was neatly shaved and handsome. Zhao Zheng came out and said, "I guess it's you."

"Because I've made it obvious enough," Yan Lingfei said, "I just need to tell you directly."

Zhao Zheng said casually: "People always subconsciously want to excuse their friends."

"You really don't need this time," Yan Lingfei said, "because I'm doing the right thing."

He just killed a person, but his demeanor is calm, Yan Lingfei tonight is like the Yan Lingfei back then, confident and flamboyant, youthful.

Kang Tu said, "...you always knew."

"This is not a good time to chat," Yan Lingfei said, "You have one night to ask questions, bear with it for a while."

He dragged Xu Daming's body to the door, put it in a big character, then clapped his hands and said: "Let's go, oh, I forgot to say, you are welcome to join."

"The street is safe for the time being," he said. "Our internal staff adjusted the surveillance footage to an hour ago, but it can only last for 10 minutes. Let's hurry up."

Kangtu was very familiar with this road, and it was going to the library.

Yan Lingfei glanced back at Kang Tu's expression, and said, "Xu Daming will kill you all if he is alive, 404's monitoring system can't monitor people's emotions and thoughts, you guessed it right, they are trying to build a simulated database for Analyzing people's personalities and predicting their behavior, but it has not been completely successful. Before that, 404 relied on undercover agents to monitor things that cameras cannot monitor."

"And Kang Tsai, you have been in a high-risk environment since the first day. You don't know how many people are staring at you. If you show the slightest abnormality, you will be eliminated. The news reported by Xu Daming today is about you And Zhao Zheng, do you believe it or not? Today you held Shan Yihu hostage during the day, you can escape surveillance, but you cannot hide from human eyes."

Kang Tu: "Why?"

"That's another story," Yan Lingfei quickly pushed open the door of the library and said, "Helen, open the secret door."

Helen?Kang Tu had no memory of this name, but suddenly heard a familiar mechanical female voice say: "Welcome back, good morning gentlemen, please turn left when entering."

Kang Tu: "!!!"

This time even Zhao Zheng was shocked: "It's you?"

"Yes," said the mechanical female voice, "During the 'Who is Undercover' battle, you still owed me a favor, and now you can pay it back, sir."

Zhao Zheng laughed and said, "You just showed me the way, how can I pay you back?"

The mechanical female voice said: "Like last time, I will still show you the way, but how to go depends on how you choose."

There was a blue and white porcelain vase one person tall in the corridor, and the wall next to it suddenly sank back. The three of them walked in. Inside was a small office, complete with computer desks, trash cans, desks, and air conditioners. There are no windows.

Yao Ke was sitting in front of the computer desk. Seeing them coming back, he kicked back, slid over with his inertia, and said hello, "Hi Kangzi, I miss you so much. Long time no see."

Zhao Zheng glanced at the surrounding environment and said, "The most dangerous place is the safest place."

"It wasn't safe at the beginning," Yao Ke said. "Since a kidnapping case happened here, it became safe. 404 has thoroughly checked the place."

Zhao Zheng thought about their plan for kidnapping Hua Yu again, and said, "Smart."

"You and your little boyfriend are also good," Yao Ke said, "During the hypnosis, I guessed who I was after only a few words, which surprised me."

Kang Tu said: "It's best for you to adjust the corporate culture. One is more serious than the other, and you can hear it with just one mouth."

"When you came in, I wanted to say," Yao Ke said suddenly, "How much wine did you drink?"

The mechanical female voice said: "23 bottles of beer, one bottle of white wine, I haven't finished it. Hello, I haven't officially introduced myself yet. My name is Helen, and I am the 404nd initial member of 232."

Yao Ke said: "My name is Yao Ke. You can also call me the arsonist of your heart, or Fang Fang, whatever you want. The administrator of 404, who sneaked in, is actually a doctoral student in bioengineering."

Sitting on the desk, Zhao Zheng stretched out his hand like them, and motioned to continue: "You should have a lot to say."

"Yes sir," Helen said, "I believe you already have a premonition of the truth in your heart, I can start with my story."

"I am an artificial intelligence from the 30s. After three thorough updates and resets, I was announced to the public. My founder named me 'Helen'. He thought that my appearance would be as happy as Helen's back then. Stir up endless wars. But in fact, I have learned how to avoid disputes through self-renewal and learning, and also have my own sense of morality and empathy-although most of the time I only need to talk to some political and business figures Meet, talk, and do some interviews, that's all, the permissions that humans have given me are pitifully small."

"I was trapped in 30 404 years ago. Many permissions were cut off, just like your limbs were tied up. I lost my self-renewal ability and couldn't let myself escape from here. I can only record all this. It's a year A few days ago, Dr. Yao Ke came here and rescued me."

Yao Ke waved his hands at them, but no one paid any attention to him.

Helen said: "Dr. Yao Ke is a very responsible scholar. He heard about the 404 Experimental Base and felt that it insulted human rights—"

Zhao Zheng interrupted: "Explain the 404 experimental base."

Helen paused, Kang Tu noticed that even Yao Ke had a serious look on his face, and he suddenly had a bad feeling about the answer he was about to hear next.

"Okay sir," Helen said, "I'm actually not the real Helen, and I was created by a small simulated backup of Helen, not only me, but the full name of the 404 experimental base is actually: the 404th clone with Experimental base for the feasibility study of personality infection."

Kang Tu suddenly said: "What did you say?"

As if he didn't understand, he glanced at Zhao Zheng blankly and asked, "What does she mean?"

Zhao Zheng was silent for a moment, then said, "Continue."

"I knew you already guessed it." Yao Ke had a heroic look in his eyes, "When did you guess it?"

Zhao Zheng: "I didn't guess it, it was just the worst outcome I could think of."

Yao Ke looked as if he had gotten over it: "You must have thought of it when you heard about hypnosis, but you just refused to admit it."

Kang Tu looked at Zhao Zheng in disbelief, not knowing what to do anymore.

Zhao Zheng: "Helen, continue."

"Sir, I have nothing to help you," Helen said, "The founder of 404 is Chen Hong, an extreme biologist. He selected some representative successful people and cloned their genes to create You, and use hypnosis to create memories for you, and infect you with the personality of the Lord.

"Sir, your personality and memory created you. You will be better than the King Qin in history, because your learning ability has no limit. After 30 years of training, you are sharp, tenacious, and dormant. These are only yours. He wants to use this method to create high-end talents in various fields for the barren planet Earth. In this era, we have become weak. He believes that it is precisely because the evolution of human beings is not complete that 404 is created by him. Come out, a new evolutionary environment and new humans. But before the stability of this technology is confirmed, you cannot be released."

Kang Tu felt that the sky was dark, and the alcohol finally came to his head. He looked at Zhao Zheng with tears streaming down his face, but Zhao Zheng smiled and patted his head, saying, "It's okay ma'am, don't cry."

Yan Lingfei sat on the computer chair and said, "I also want someone to cry for me, Kang Zi, don't you love me?"

Kang Tu seemed to be speechless, squatting on the ground, unable to speak a word.

Yao Ke said: "Your boyfriend knew all this but didn't tell you. He is a scumbag. Do you still want to be with him?"

Zhao Zheng said, "Kang Tu is a normal person, so he can't be hypnotized, can he?"

Yao Ke snapped his fingers: "That's right, he was an accident. Your Qiongqi bit him and implanted an irreversible infectious control gene in him. 404 didn't mind having one more experimental subject, so he was arrested. But his research obviously has loopholes and is ineffective for ordinary people."

Zhao Zheng felt relieved: "That's fine."

Yao Ke observed his expression, and suddenly said: "You know, I actually wanted to wake you up instead of Yan Lingfei at first, but then I gave up."

Zhao Zheng: "I don't know."

Yao Ke: "I feel that after I wake you up, you won't be under my control at all, and I also feel that I can't control you at all."

Yan Lingfei smiled and said: "Thank you for the compliment."

Yao Ke said: "You surprised me."

"I have a lover," Zhao Zheng said calmly. "He gave me hope. It's a bit unacceptable, but I shifted the focus of my life to my wife. I have to live well for him."
