under one roof

fourteen

Yu Chen operated a bit, and a map-like pattern gradually stretched out on the screen.Yang Jian was puzzled and asked, "What is this?"

"I don't understand either." Yu Chen replied earnestly with a thoughtful look on his face, "The arrangement and combination of this number is not like an address, but more like a coordinate."

Yang Jian asked: "Can it be located by coordinates?"

"Let me try." Yu Chen compared their locations and positioned the close coordinates, "There are two locations that coincide, and they are in the company. The other one should be in the hospital, eh? Why is there one on the road? "He was talking to himself, then suddenly stopped, opened a window again to search for the name of the road, and sure enough, there was a traffic accident last month, and the driver died on the spot.

"It's a dead person." Yang Jian made a judgment, "I guess the one in the hospital shouldn't have died normally."

"Collect dead people?" Yu Chen's shocked tone was filled with fear, "Isn't this too infiltrating?"

Yang Jian said: "To be precise, it may be the dead soul. Do you remember that Black and White Impermanence said before that they have encountered great obstacles in their work recently, and there are always souls that cannot be recruited. I think it should have a lot to do with this." relation."

Yu Chen was confused, he scratched his hair, took out a cigarette and lit it, and said, "Wait until I figure out the logic."

"No smoking."

"I can't think without smoking!" Yu Chen said. "With the development of science, there are still people pretending to be ghosts and being quite successful? Assuming it is done by humans, then first of all he needs to make sure that there are ghosts and gods in this world. With super technical ability to crack NO.4 to steal data. And, most importantly, how can he ensure that the people he locates will die? This logic doesn’t impress me, so there is only one possibility.”

"The other party is not human." Yang Jian concluded his statement, "and collecting these souls should be just a means, not an end."

"What's the purpose?"

"I don't know." Yang Jian shook his head.He paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, "At first, I came to the human world to investigate the abnormal energy. From the results I learned and the feedback from the Heavenly Court, the problem should be No.4. I I thought you were related to this matter, but I didn’t get any valid conclusions, then Li Zhaodi died, Black and White Impermanence asked me to investigate this matter, and judging from the data from NO.4..."

"My God, this is too complicated." Yu Chen yelled, "Is it time for a detective? According to what you said, everything is focused on NO.4."

"I want to ask a question."

"what?"

Yang Jian turned around and looked directly at Yu Chen: "Will NO.4 have its own ideology?"

"No." Yu Chen replied crisply, "Any human matter is just matter. With the development of science, machines can constantly update and simulate or even replace human beings, but they will never have human consciousness."

"why?"

It's hard for Yu Chen to answer this question, and he can't say why, maybe it's because of his work and knowledge structure that he still can't make any idealistic judgment.He thought about it for a long time, then pointed to his chest, and said, "Because of it." He looked at Yang Jian and smiled, and said, "There is no way to make it here, it contains a lot, and it may have feelings. , language, thought, etc. Machines will never be equated with humans. According to your logic, it can also be explained. Humans have emotions, so they can only approach God infinitely, or surpass God, but there is no way to become God. I I think it's the same thing."

Yang Jian stood and digested for a long time before saying: "Then NO.4 can be simply regarded as a tool."

"Wait." Yu Chen interrupted Yang Jian, "I also have two questions to ask you. First, is there anyone like me who can see that your kind... exists? Second, if there is something inhuman If there is something collected through NO.4, there is an unexplainable logic here, that is, you have unnatural powers that cannot be explained by science. Isn’t it faster to use these powers? Why rely on human science? I don’t think database searches The engine will move faster than your fingers."

Yang Jian said: "There will be people who can communicate with psychics, but very few. As for why NO.4 is used instead of their own abilities, you may have to ask him himself."

"Ah?" Yu Chen was embarrassed, "Then...then what shall we do?"

Yang Jian shrugged: "I can't help it."

"Hey!" Yu Chen punched Yang Jian's chest, "I was dragged into a boat by you! Then you said you can't do anything?" He wanted to play with Yang Jian, but accidentally his fist was too straightforward, The shot was taken at the position where Yang Jian was injured.Although it was a flesh injury, Yang Jian still felt the pain in his physical body, and frowned.Yu Chen realized it, put the cigarette between his fingers and hurriedly said: "I didn't mean it, I was joking with you! Does it hurt?" He fumbled around, and the cigarette butt fell on Yang Jian.

It got messier and messier.

Yang Jian pushed Yu Chen's hand away, not looking angry, and said, "It's okay."

"Oh..." Yu Chen's frizz was dismissed by these two words, he was like a drop of passionate and unhesitating water, but it was a pity that the drop fell into the sea, the sea did not need him, and would not be moved by him.

He tilted his neck, scratched his forehead, put the half of the cigarette on his fingertips back to his mouth, and returned to the look that he didn't care much about.

Yang Jian went back to his room to tidy up, and changed his clothes when he came out, as if he was about to go out, Yu Chen asked, "Where are you going so late? Don't you have dinner?"

"Do you want to come with me?" Yang Jian asked back.

"Yes!" Yu Chen nodded sharply.

A pitch-black car stopped at the entrance of the building. The door opened, and the man who came out was dressed in a well-tailored black suit. He was tall and tall. Although he wore sunglasses, he couldn't hide his strong aura, as if he was dressed up for a banquet.

The premise is to ignore the oil bottle that followed him.

"I decided to give you a name." Yu Chen said with a fake smile, "How about Yang Aotian? It fits your temperament better. The name Yang Jian is too common, and it's not suitable for walking in the world."

Yang Jian said, "You can shut up."

"You don't like this name?" Yu Chen continued, "Then Yang Kuxuan Yang Lenglie Yang... Hey, wait for me!"

Yang Jian has long legs, so he threw away Yu Chen in a few steps.

Yu Chen caught up with Yang Jian, looked around, and asked, "What are we doing here? Are we eating?"

Xihai Banquet is a well-known high-end club in this city, and it is full of delicacies from mountains and seas.The chef of his family was invited from somewhere, and he couldn't dig it out if he couldn't see it. There were a few special dishes that could only be made by Xihai Banquet.Not to mention the dishes, but just looking at the bustling location where Xihai Banquet is located, the price is also very beautiful.

Seeing Yang Jian's familiarity, Yu Chen thought he was a regular customer, but he murmured in his heart.Yang Jian found a seat by the window and sat down, and a waiter came over immediately. Yang Jian curled his fingers and tapped the table rhythmically with his backhand, and said to the waiter, "Tell your housekeeper to come out and talk."

The waiter understood, looked at Yang Jian, and said, "The boss has gone to Europe, so he's not here."

Yang Jian didn't seem to hear what the waiter said, and said to himself: "Go and tell him, I'm here."

Yu Chen couldn't understand what kind of riddle they were playing: "Who is his boss?"

Yang Jian didn't answer, but said instead: "Are you hungry? If you're hungry, order something you like, and I'll go to the bathroom." After that, he left with one hand behind his back.

There was no one in the bathroom at the moment, so Yang Jian hung up the cleaning sign before entering the door, then counted the third door panel of the cubicle, and smashed it open with a fist.

"boom--"

The people inside looked at Yang Jian in panic with their clothes half-drawn.

Yang Jian raised his eyebrows and asked, "What did you do?"

"Didn't I tell you! He's going to Europe!"

"Ao Lie, don't fart for me!"

"When did you become so vulgar?" Ao Lie's big eyes widened.He straightened his modest clothes, and pushed Yang Jian out, "I was having dinner with my foreign friends, and Dionysus brought his newly brewed fine wine, which was delicious. , just served the table...I didn't hear that you were here, so I hurried back." His tone was extremely dissatisfied, as if he had been wronged by the sky.

Yang Jian held up his white coat and said, "What are you wearing? Dance God?"

Ao Lie patted Yang Jian's hand: "Why are you so old-fashioned? Haven't you seen all the gods on Mount Olympus dressed like this? I'm just doing as the Romans do." He said as he took off a thick golden hair from his neck. The chain dangled in front of Yang Jian, and said ostentatiously: "Look, this was given to me by Mortis, and it has been opened!"

Yang Jian didn't know what to say for a while.

Ao Lie saw that Yang Jian's face changed again and again, so he stopped joking and asked, "Why are you looking for me in such a hurry?"

"I'm not looking for you, I'm looking for that monkey."

"Hey, hello!" Ao Lie rolled his eyes, "Then you go find it directly, why are you running to me?"

Yang Jian said nothing, just raised his hand to hold Ao Lie's hand.For a moment, Ao Lie's expression became extremely nervous, and he asked Yang Jian in a low voice: "What happened? Your mana..."

Yang Jian smiled: "Things are a bit complicated, I may have to tell you slowly. Now you just need to know that my call is not working every day. After thinking about it, you are the one who can clearly find it. Fortunately, you are a foodie, and you love to open restaurants in the world, with so many industries, you can still find them if you want to."

Ao Lie puffed up his cheeks and gave Yang Jian a hard look.

He dragged Yang Jian back to his office on the top floor like a thief and changed his clothes.Ao Lie's tall and handsome appearance was revealed only by ordinary casual clothes on the upper body.His skin is fair, his hair is black and soft, half long, the ends of his hair will gently sweep across his shoulders with his movements, and there is a bunch of white hair behind his left ear, which was originally fashionable, but Yang Jian said he killed Matt .

"The poor monk has been roaming all over the world these years, and you have long since stopped asking about the affairs of the heavenly court. It may take some time for you to explain to me clearly." Ao Lie said, "But if you want to find my senior brother, I think you can do it too." Don't have too much hope. You know his temperament best, and besides, how much trouble will alarm my big brother? The sky is going to fall?"

He called "My Senior Brother" on the left and "My Senior Brother" on the right, but Yang Jian turned a deaf ear to it.When the two returned to the lobby, Yu Chen was still staring at the menu in a daze.

"Did you order anything?" Yang Jian asked.

"You're back!" Yu Chen raised his head happily, saw that there was someone beside Yang Jian, and asked him in a low voice, "Who is this non-mainstream?"

Yang Jian's always serious face burst into a "puchi" laugh, and Ao Lie couldn't say a word.

"My name is Ao Lie." Ao Lie stretched out his hand.

Yu Chen shook hands with him, although he didn't know him, but he still pretended to have admired his name for a long time: "Oh——!!!"

Ao Lie stamped his feet, twisted Yang Jian's arm and shouted, "Yang Jian, he bullied me!"

Yu Chen was dumbfounded at that moment.
