Love, death, and false man

Chapter 38. Cold Mountain
When a base station generates language information synchronized with real-time behavior, it will refer to the instantaneous state of the generated object. Since conventional base stations cannot read people with a soul fire intensity of 1024 joules or more, it is only an experience model and instantaneous reference. A lie that is 90% true is the most effective.

When considering sensitive content, it will be displayed as normal information; topics that are not informative do not require much modification.

Therefore, under high pressure, it is easy to develop a biased mindset. If someone is pointed at with a real gun, they will most likely panic or beg for mercy, but if their real-time reaction is very calm, that's not right, unless they are a very good actor.

When asked about dangerous topics, the server will generate false answers or perform a thought experiment. However, if it becomes too aggressive and demands that the monitored subject explain the reasons for abnormal behavior, the answers will gradually become inconsistent with the generated information, leading to a loss of synchronization and exposure.

In a typical social setting, this language information generation is completely reliable.

Grabbing Ji Wei's hand as he stood up, Fang Yan was completely oblivious to the strangeness in her words. His mind was racing, and he had already decided whether to have a Chinese-style wedding or a Western-style wedding. He couldn't possibly go to the ends of the earth with his seniors; that would be too cruel.

This woman is incredibly beautiful with a fantastic figure, and even... incredibly cute? I rarely use "cute" to describe a woman, but this time I'm genuinely smitten. She seems to have a special scent about her, maybe pheromones? Is this what they call physiological attraction? I've never experienced anything like it before.

Although military regulations prohibit using thought reading to gain social status and benefits, ... he has terrible luck with women and never wants to go to the Cold Wonderland.

The latter half of Fang Yan's internal monologues was completely altered by Wei Xing into fantasies that even bordered on obsessive.

Ji Wei felt a little uncomfortable. Although she always gleaned sexual repression from the male high school student's mind, this guy... was probably the king of sexual repression. She should hurry up and send him away to end the conversation.

I noticed some sweat on his forehead.

"Would you like some water? Here, have some."

"Need not."

Fang Yan calmed himself down. This was a critical moment; he needed to find the assassin and the contact, not to pick up girls.

He picked up his bicycle and continued riding towards the center of the lake.

Ji Wei only read "I will pretend to casually demonstrate a three-point shooting posture in front of you," and watched Fang Yan ride away in confusion.

What an odd person. Perhaps it's just my perception, but there seems to be some deviation in their thoughts and behaviors, and the scar on their face is hard not to notice.

Let's just open the box.

Photo comparison, database filtering, Fang Yan was exposed on the spot, all information was laid bare, of course, all of it was just routine information in the Soul Master Satellite algorithm, and mental disorder, summer vacation manslaughter, acquittal.

This level of sexually repressed fantasy is completely beyond what someone with a mental disorder could conceive, right? It's highly suspicious.

Considering the upcoming coordinated operations in a few days, and the lack of energy to perform additional tasks, this year's routine surveillance targets have already been achieved ahead of schedule.

"Pheromones?"

Ji Wei sniffed the scent on her hands, and then suddenly shuddered – this was too perverted.

I'll continue with physical training. The coastal trails in the Bay Area are also quite suitable for long-distance running, so I'll make this my long-term training location.

9/29—21:30
As night deepened, there were not many people left in the lakeside park. The streetlights in the park were scattered and located in remote areas, which was somewhat eerie.

Fang Yan spent the entire day in the lakeside park but found no suspicious targets. No one attacked him, and no one contacted him. What was the meaning of that message? Was it a diversionary tactic? Was he deliberately lured here to his home...?

The more he thought about it, the worse it seemed. He realized he had been completely tricked and hurriedly called his grandfather, only to be met with a severe scolding, which ruined his entertainment at the nightclub.

"Hmm...how weird."

Fang Yan sat alone on a park bench, with no one around. The only sounds were the occasional splashing of fish and the chirping of insects from the artificial lake.

Looking back, it hasn't been long since the 11th, about twenty days. I've been in a state of high tension the whole time, but now I've inexplicably relaxed completely.

Perhaps it's because the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack. To defend this lakeside park, all you have to do is kill the people running across the pier, which reduces a lot of psychological pressure.

The terrifying burdens, such as summer nightmares and death high schools, have been lifted.

Fang Yan didn't want to go anywhere right now. He just wanted to sit in this chair forever. He even had the idea of ​​sleeping here for the night. Perhaps it triggered some kind of circuit breaker protection mechanism. For some reason, his nose felt a little sore. He thought, "Damn it, I'll kill his mother."

Suddenly, I heard running footsteps in the distance.

Fang Yan tensed up again. Considering the mysterious news from earlier in the day, he didn't slack off in the slightest. Something big was probably about to happen. He unzipped his satchel so he could take out his submachine gun at any time and be ready to execute the orders.

But all that came was a woman jogging at night, and it turned out to be the same stunningly beautiful woman I'd met during the day.

This time, Ji Wei really felt something was strange. She went back to eat, rested for a while, and came back here. Her night run had already ended, but this guy was still there. Her hand instinctively pressed the pistol tucked into her waistband, ready to fire at any sign of trouble.

[Instructions received from Lieutenant Sylvia Christie.]

You have been issued a combat mission.

The execution date is October 4th, and detailed task information has been sent to the terminal.

[Completing the mission will earn you 1000 merit points; eliminating the traitors will earn you additional points.]

[Your direct superior has sent an additional message: I apologize that your leave must end early. The only operational date is October 4th. Private First Class Fang Yan, you are now a legendary figure in the 10th Army. You are capable of even more legendary feats. Best wishes for your continued success in your military career.]

at the same time.

Xia Bing also messaged him on WeChat, saying she had a job and wanted Fang Yan to come to her house immediately to discuss a feasible infiltration plan. She added that it would likely require him to leave Binhai for a few days. Xia Bing had already skimmed through the mission details; the difficulty level was extremely high.

The timeline is 2030, and the objective is to coordinate with people from the future in a time-based operation. This means the target can only die at a specific time. There are two options: pre-arranged kidnapping, but this would attract significant attention and be highly dangerous, resulting in a relentless pursuit and killing by enemies; the second option, killing at the designated time, is far more difficult to execute and requires numerous contingency plans.

Fang Yan hesitated for a moment, glanced at the girl in the baseball cap whom he liked so much, but unfortunately they were not meant to be. He zipped up his bag, got on his bicycle, and left the lakeside park.

Ji Wei didn't pay much attention, only thinking that there were indeed some mental problems that couldn't be judged by common sense.

Damn it, where was that line in the movie again?

Lying on the well in Saliswanger's place, it's like a madwoman gazing into its secrets, only to see returning souls?

We've given up. Physical training will continue tomorrow, and we also need to familiarize ourselves with the tasks in advance. Every aspect needs to be carefully considered, as it's a matter of life and death.

Given that the Soul Master's satellite will have the strongest dominance in 2030, it can easily obtain a stable identity to infiltrate it. After that, all that is needed is to eliminate the target, and maybe take care of a few Salvation Army members in the process. This time, the target is the people of the Holy See.

“Pheromone…”

Ji Wei shook her head; there shouldn't be anything that far-fetched.
