Global Examination

tuk tuk-

There was a sudden knock on the door.

Yu Wenyun gave Lao Yu a few arrows, raised his head and asked, "Who is it?"

A confused voice came in: "I."

"Brother?" Yu Wen stepped over the bag on the ground and leaned over to unlock the door.

Besides You Huo, there were Qin Chen and Chu Yue outside the door, Yu Wen was stunned for a moment and said, "Are you leaving? Lao Yu and I are still packing up."

You Huo Yue Guowen glanced inside - Lao Yu was rolling up his sleeves and zipping up his backpack.

Perhaps because of the lighting, Lao Yu was a little thinner than before, with a vague dividing line between his face and neck, and his arms had vaguely muscular outlines.

In this way, he finally has the appearance of being a soldier.

You Huo suddenly remembered that Yu Wen once said jokingly: "My dad has such a reckless personality, and he likes to brag when he's drunk. He even bragged about beating dogs with his bare hands when he was young, but he didn't brag about life in the army. I guess He's not a very good soldier."

All he knew was that Old Yu had been a soldier for several years, had no big ambitions and his education was limited, so he retired soon.

Occasionally someone asks about it, but Lao Yu always shakes his hands and laughs, saying: "Hey—forget it, I'm so fat if I don't mention the brave man back then."

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that he really seldom mentions the past.

Lao Yu stood up with his bag in his hand and asked, "Leave now?"

You Huo came back to his senses: "No, there's no rush. Let's go to Dr. Wu to ask something, come together?"

Old Yu was taken aback: "Now?"

"Ah."

"Then..." Lao Yu glanced around, put the scattered things into his jacket pocket, and said, "Okay, let's go together then. What's the matter now?"

"Find something." You Huo shook the brown wallet in his hand.

Old Yu didn't suspect him, so he went out with Yu Wen.

He thought it was a meeting with all the staff, but You Huo didn't call anyone else.

This made him a little puzzled.

She was the only one in Wu Li's room, and the other two girls went to the bathroom together to change the hemostatic stickers for the three students.

Wu Li was a little surprised when she opened the door to see them.

She glanced at the old clock on the wall and asked, "Didn't you make an appointment to leave at 11 o'clock at night? There is still an hour and a half left."

Chu Yue said straight to the point: "I'm not leaving early, but I'm here to ask you a few questions."

"Ask?" Wu Li was taken aback.

Boss Chu always speaks straightforwardly, and they have a good relationship, so they rarely use such words.This shows that what is being asked is very serious.

Wu Li signaled them to close the door: "Sit casually, what's the problem?"

"You mentioned a project before entering the examination room." You Huo reminded.

Wu Li once said that she participated in a project.It's just that the system was monitoring in all directions at the time, so it was inconvenient for her to say more, and she kept saying that she had to wait for the right time.

They jumped into this examination room because there is a place where they can whisper.

Although the secret space that Chu Yue mentioned was not found, they got help from 154 and all members were blocked.Unless a bonus or deduction point is stepped on, the system can't hear or see them.

This is the best time to whisper.

Wu Li is an extremely rational girl who can always accurately judge when to say something.

So, she spoke very simply.

"I participated in the project five years ago, and I followed my uncle, who is your attending doctor." Wu Li said, "Xiao Yang told you that he would not go to the clinic normally, right?"

You Huo nodded.

Wu Li said: "I heard that he treated you for brain injury and eye injury at first. I was very surprised. But when I think about your memory and that project again, I am not surprised."

"I was still a PhD student at the time, and my professional ability was much worse than it is now. I never thought that I would join the project team, because my uncle had very high demands on me. According to his standards, I was not qualified to participate." Wu Li recalled: "I didn't realize until two years later that he probably needed a helper he could trust completely."

At that time, Wu Li was young and had little qualifications.It is said to be involved in the project, but in fact, it has been hovering on the periphery from beginning to end, and has never touched the core.

"What I want to do is some observational research. The research object is a group of—" She thought for a while, and said in a way that is easy to understand for them: "Patients with atypical brain disturbances are similar to the situation of the two of you. Same."

She pointed at You Huo, and then at Qin Chen.

"That batch of patients included both domestic and foreign patients, and the span is very large. I thought they were volunteer patients recruited by the project team to study new treatment methods."

At first, Wu Li didn't have any doubts.

She carefully recorded the conditions of those patients every day, carefully observed every common point and difference, and sent more than ten notebooks.Although she has no access to the core research, she will ask about the progress of the research on the treatment method from time to time.

After following her on and off for two years, she finally realized some problems.

"The first is the identity of the patient." Wu Li stretched out a finger and said, "The information I received initially included the basic information of each patient, such as height, weight, age, etc., including occupations, written in a variety of ways. The data should be inaccurate, because most of those patients came from the army."

"At that time, I could still convince myself that the dedication of the soldiers was relatively strong, and it was understandable that they accounted for the majority of volunteers. But then another problem arose."

Wu Li stretched out her second finger: "My observation objects have increased."

"Initially there were only 6 people, and it gradually increased to 14 within four months, and then there were two more in six months. It stopped suddenly in the second year, and no new patients were added."

"Why is it a problem to increase the number of observation objects?" Yu Wen was a little curious.

Wu Li said: "Because the sample is a very important thing, within a research cycle, the change of the sample is a big taboo, which will directly affect the accuracy of the conclusion. Generally, even if there is an increase or decrease, it is the end of a cycle, and after the phased conclusion is obtained .”

"Besides, the increase and decrease are also planned and purposeful. Add 8 people in four months and 2 in six months? This kind of addition is too chaotic and irregular."

Yu Wen let out an "oh" and almost understood.

Wu Li stretched out her third finger: "There is one last question—the location was changed in the middle of the project."

"What do you mean?" You Huo asked.

"About the fifth month or so, my uncle informed me that I had changed a laboratory. At the beginning of the second year, I changed again. The last time I moved directly abroad."

At the beginning, Wu Li felt strange that this kind of relocation was already considered frequent.

"And after two years, the so-called treatment plan has almost stagnated, at least I have not seen any substantial progress." Wu Li said: "I was vaguely aware that there was a problem with the whole project. Compared with researching the treatment plan , they seem to be hiding from something."

It was as if... while protecting those patients, she was avoiding something.

"After moving abroad, I stopped participating." Wu Li said, "But because of those doubts and questions, I have been looking for relevant information, and I have paid special attention to the situation of my uncle. After three years, I have a little clue—— More than ten years ago, my uncle participated in a joint research project as an expert consultant in medicine. Judging from the current situation, it should be this screening examination system. The main developers involved are both domestic experts and foreign experts. Yes. I’ve seen group photos.”

"Some problems occurred during the operation of the system, as if the artificial intelligence suddenly had a mind close to that of a human being. For reasons of punishment or self-protection, it interfered with the memory of some people's brains. Those of my observations came from Therefore, they don't remember anything related to the system, which makes the uncle and other related personnel a little bit confused."

"I later found out that my uncle was actually very nervous in the past few years. Because the former chief creative staff had frequent accidents, I kept wondering if those people were also pulled in by the system. Xiao Yang mentioned to you how I and her are. Was it pulled in for the exam?"

You Huo nodded: "At your uncle's house."

"Yes, when I came out of his study." Wu Li said, "I kept thinking that the system might have pulled in the wrong person. It wasn't me and Yang Shu who wanted to take the exam, but my uncle. I The two just collided at the point of the gun."

"Not necessarily." You Huo said, "Maybe it wants to pull you and your uncle."

He suddenly remembered what 154 had said. He said that the screening criteria of the examination system were "dangerous people".Perhaps the original definition is some partial talent that can be absorbed by the army, but as the system loses control and becomes autonomous, its definition of "dangerous" will also change.

The person who created it always knows it best, including its strengths and weaknesses.

To the system, these people are ticking time bombs, living threats.

Wu Li thought for a while, then said softly "ah" and said, "I don't rule out this possibility, after all, I'm also a half participant. No wonder my uncle advised me not to accept military-related projects for the past two years. I thought he I was afraid that I would discover something. Now that I think about it... maybe I regret pulling me into the project, and I hope I stay far away so as not to be affected."

"I can understand that he kept it from you." You Huo frowned and said, "But why didn't he tell me? I have been recuperating in the hospital for so long, and he had many opportunities to tell me the ins and outs. But he only said that I was a trainee. injury."

Wu Li said: "I shouldn't dare to say it. He has been very vigilant in the past few years, and sometimes he is overly sensitive. It may be because you have stayed in the system for a long time. He suspects that you have been disturbed by the system and became its owner." help."

You Huo remembered his own eyes, and suddenly became quiet.

Also.

His relationship with the system is almost symbiotic. Who can guarantee that his position will always be firm and pure?

No one dares to take this risk.

Wu Li glanced at him and added: "Don't blame him for his high vigilance. I have found from his calls, messages and occasional chats that they have been contacting the army for help and organized some people. It's similar to the death squad, but it has never been successful. If it were me, I would suspect that someone has been helping the system."

"I met a man at my uncle's side, who should have been arranged by the army. I had a chat with him at the time, and then... I never saw him again. I think it must be more ominous."

She didn't speak for a while, seeming to be remembering.

After a while, she said softly: "As you know, the personnel of this death squad are selected. Most of them are people who have nothing to worry about. There are no complicated social relationships and no worries. In case of accidents, the scope of damage can be minimized."

This is actually very euphemistic.

To put it bluntly, the best candidates for death squads are lone wolves without parents or relatives.If unfortunately there are casualties, no one will find out except those who know, and no one will feel sorry for them.

The damage with the smallest scope is only affecting themselves.

You Huo didn't expect to hear this from Wu Li.

He froze for a moment, then suddenly turned to look at the people around him.

Qin Chen nestled on the sofa, resting his chin on his elbows, his expression remained unchanged from the beginning to the end, as if he was listening to something irrelevant.

Feeling the wandering gaze, he turned his head and smiled silently.

This kind of smile is what he often has, with a nonchalant attitude and a trace of comfort.

Maybe this is the person picked out by the Death Squad, this is the so-called trait of a lone wolf.

Even at this time, his first reaction is still to appease the person he cares about the most, and tell the other party - don't worry about me, I'm fine.

……

But I have.

You Huo grabbed the hand beside her, pursed her lips straight.

This person named Qin Chen will never be able to control the scope of the damage to himself, because there is another wandering around him.

He has a relationship, he will be sad.
