[Kun Cheng Nong Cheng] The end of the road

"I hate this trickery."

"Please call it grotesque," 0919 hummed an unknown tune, looking extremely happy, "It's almost time for you to show up, I mean, any of you. Lady Luck seems to be very favored by me, all of a sudden, you guys All in."

"I don't know you." Cai Xukun didn't deliberately take care of the children around him, and still maintained a fast-moving posture.

"Of course you know each other. But you don't trust me," 0919 paused, and cheered as if thinking of something, "Let's exchange secrets!"

"I have nothing to say to you."

"This is really ruthless." The little boy clapped his hands and swiped in the air. A familiar figure emerged. Cai Xukun caught it reflexively, and met Fan Chengcheng in his arms. Both of them saw it through each other's eyes. unbelievable.

"You should learn to share with each other."

"Share what?" Fan Chengcheng still kept his arms around Cai Xukun's neck. The latter didn't remind him, but raised his eyebrows.The sentry straightened up embarrassingly, and sat on the ground.They noticed a rather cozy-looking Persian rug appeared on the ground at some point.

"I heard that sharing secrets can increase trust. Trust can increase our chances of leaving here." Cai Xukun sat cross-legged next to Fan Chengcheng, and tentatively said, "I want to tell you a secret."

"Secrets are called secrets because you haven't found someone worth sharing with you. It's just for the sake of trust, and you don't have to bother."

"I think so." Cai Xukun said, "When I was 13 years old, Tali made an assessment of my mental state, and the diagnosis result told me that I was born with a lack of emotion. In order to maximize my ability , They erased my past memory, so you can see that I can freely adjust the empathy wave frequency, and enter and leave the mental domain of any sentinel. There is no such thing as matching degree between me and you."

"Oh."

"You don't look surprised."

"Which do you mean? The lack of emotion or the fit?"

"Both."

"I used to have a best friend who is also an emotionally deficient person now." Fan Chengcheng wrinkled his nose, "Unlike you, he was acquired. Don't you find it strange? If you have no memory, how can you be sure that you are born with it?" Are Emotionally Deficient or Acquired?"

Cai Xukun frowned, he had been vaguely looking forward to this answer for a long time in his heart, maybe he had been waiting for someone to tell him bluntly, so he accepted it easily.

"He is your fantasy little friend." 0919 interjected.

"I'm not lonely." Fan Chengcheng turned his head and glared at the little boy, who stuck out his tongue and gave him a grimace in return.The sentinel pinched the bridge of his nose and waved his hand angrily, "I didn't expect to say anything, you come first."

"Let me tell you a story about the 06 training base. In fact, there is more than one training base. All children who are identified as having the possibility of differentiation in the genetic test will be transferred to the tower for training. On the basis of providing basic necessities, the tower The children will be placed in the establishment of each training base according to different qualification ratings. The No. 06 training base is a fairly satisfactory one. Under the halo of the No. 01 base, which is called the best level, it is not even necessary for the higher-ups to understand Generally speaking, the sentries and guides who graduated from base 06 would be sent directly to the battlefield, and they would not even have the opportunity to participate in the training of non-commissioned officers. Ten years ago, this obscure base became famous overnight. Chen Linong and Fan Chengcheng served as The SS-level sentinels were sent to the main tower, and the base was permanently closed in the event of annihilation. The official explanation was that the early differentiation of the two caused instability in the mental domain, and there were no enough level guides to sort out the chaotic mental clusters. Under the circumstances, the researchers accidentally triggered the self-destruction procedure of the base while escaping from the rioting sentries, and all of them were buried in the ground. The rescue team could barely rescue the two dying sentries when they arrived at the scene. Considering the experiment caused by the collapse For the sake of safety, the entire base was abandoned.” 0919 waved his hand, signaling the two not to refute, “Of course this is not the truth. The lunatics in the laboratory had long wanted to take the opportunity to climb up, so they sent those low-quality Genetic children were transformed, and three excellent experimental results were released."

"Two of them are 0919 and me." Chen Linong tightened the bandage around his wrist with a calm tone.

Cai Xukun nodded, got up and left the trial ground.It was like this every time, his cooperation with Chen Linong was unsatisfactory, and the latter seemed to prefer to use his body covered in bruises to prove over and over that he didn't need a guide.Or Cai Xukun is not needed.This made him find it very interesting, considering that Chen Linong was the one who took the initiative.

The watch rings.Cai Xukun pressed down on Wang Ziyi's name above.As the iris and the garage were successfully matched, an arrogant Maybach roared and stopped in front of him.He turned off the beeping watch again.

The space in the car is extremely spacious, but Cai Xukun doesn't like those messy things, so the books sent by Lin Yanjun are particularly strong.Lin Yanjun is a member of the research institute, who is in charge of the brain nerve. He is young and talented.That guy always has some inexplicable ideas, such as giving him a book.

——Talking about the relationship between clones and gene contributors.Can clones have human rights?Can clones with memories really replace genetic contributors?The development and use of human cloning is still a complicated problem in today's society. Scientifically, we only do two simple functions of carrying memory and providing transplanted organs.The former uses the clone as a carrier, and the latter uses it as a petri dish. This is a very inhumane approach——

——Can clones have deep consciousness?This question is as difficult to answer as whether artificial intelligence can dream——

No one really cares about this.Cai Xukun turned a few more pages, so bored that he fell into meditation.Recently he began to feel frequent mental instability.A hot water kettle full of steam would be nice, as a description, he thought sarcastically.Then a little guy who caught his attention came in.

Seven minutes and thirty seconds.

The watch beeped for the third time. Cai Xukun pushed the buckle with one hand, glanced coldly at the caller’s name displayed on the surface, and threw the expensive device behind him. The watch fell into the back in the crevice of the seat.He raised his hand and moved his neck, but instead observed with interest the strange sentinel who was winking and baring his teeth at the car window.This is a boy about seventeen or eighteen years old, with surprisingly fair skin, slender and cold eyebrows under a head of fluffy and thick brown hair. A kitten with teeth and claws.

Fan Chengcheng.Cai Xukun has seen his photos more than once from various documents handed to his eyes.For some reason, the guys up there seemed hell-bent on making them a partner.Compared with any other high-level sentinel who was randomly matched, Fan Chengcheng's appearance did suit Cai Xukun's appetite, and he seemed to grow in his own aesthetics in every aspect.But compared to this meaningless physical impulse and extra mental burden, Cai Xukun is more happy to enjoy the leisure of being single.Obviously, the other party also had the same meaning.

Before driving away from the proving ground, Cai Xukun never expected to meet the legendary "future partner", let alone see the appearance of the other party's Huaichun youth.He has only met one person who will reject him so far, and he was still fighting with him just now, and now he meets another one. Scanned Fan Chengcheng from top to bottom.

The one being looked at didn't notice it, and moved his head closer. The little mole on his neck that had been kissed by a snake flashed in front of Cai Xukun's eyes.Cai Xukun raised his eyelids, just in time to see a familiar figure walking towards them the moment the sentry turned around.Chen Linong, the sentinel who applied to be bound to him three days ago, was also the first person to reject him, by the way.

Cai Xukun watched Chen Linong change his previous hostility, his sharp eyebrows and eyes melted into a wet look, and his whole body seemed to be filled with sweet cotton candy. Then, the sentry who turned into a golden retriever hugged Fan Chengcheng in his arms, holding his lips incessantly. Rubbing the latter's neck, the breath is filled with soft orange flavor.Fan Chengcheng pushed Chen Linong, pinched the tall sentinel's cheeks with both hands and pulled them outward, laughing under the aggrieved expression of the other party, his shoulders trembled.Chen Linong pulled him into his arms again, his rough palms slid along the back of his neck, squeezed the soft flesh, took advantage of the softness of the latter to squeeze his body in, and slowly approached until it stuck to the window glass.Cai Xukun's vision was completely blocked, and he could only hear kitten-like grunts coming out of Fan Chengcheng's thin body, followed by the sound of saliva exchanged, and the clasped hands printed on the glass. .

In order to avoid more extreme scenes, Cai Xukun playfully explained his wicked behavior. He bent his knuckles and slammed the car window three times, successfully attracting the attention of the two of them.Then, he lowered the car window under Chen Linong's understanding expression, and released the sweetest and most innocent smile in his life to Fan Chengcheng who was hiding behind the sentry: "Go to the room, okay?"

"There's a reason why I said I don't like you." Fan Chengcheng covered his face and wailed, "If you know where we are, and if you think about it, there will be no results, I hope you can restrain your mind."

"After all, it's my source of joy, so I can't help it." Cai Xukun shrugged indifferently.

"Protect my eyes and stop flirting." 0919 interrupted their bickering angrily, "The 06 training base does not have enough funds and capabilities to support it to carry out repeated experiments. If I were the operator of the base, I would Spend every penny wisely. If Chen Linong has succeeded in transforming the sentinel, then he only needs to submit the main tower for mass production, and Fan Chengcheng is not in my consideration."

"You keep talking."

"The second time I will choose to transform the guide, a guide who is absolutely powerful enough to shake everyone's status. I will incorporate him into the main tower system. Unlike sentries, guides are uncontrollable, and they are the shackles of sentries. The key can affect the thoughts and behaviors of sentries and even ordinary humans." 0919 continued to analyze, "To control that guide, I will give him double insurance, first bind him with a sentry, and second—"

"Erase his memory." Cai Xukun took out his pen, leaned down, and the three big characters of flamboyant and phoenix danced vividly on the paper, "The guide is me. What good is lying to Chen Linong?"

0919 did not answer, and instead asked Fan Chengcheng: "What is Chen Linong's spiritual body?"

"Rottweiler."

An almost impossible answer flashed in his mind, and Cai Xukun held it tightly in his hands. He grabbed Fan Chengcheng's shoulder and asked word by word: "What is your spiritual body?"

"I haven't seen my own spiritual body." Fan Chengcheng replied confusedly.

"Fan Chengcheng, are you sure that you and your id are two separate parts? Or is that mental body just your imagination?"

"What do you mean?"

"It's not that your spiritual body didn't appear, it didn't exist at all." Cai Xukun stared at Fan Chengcheng without blinking, hesitated for a moment, seemed to be weighing his words, and then said with certainty, "Chen Linong is naturally differentiated, you are the one who transformed sentinel."

"Bingo." 0919 stood up and slowly retreated into the corner.

"Let's do a brain teaser," the military boots hit the ground, and the figure of the young man slowly emerged from the darkness. His face could not be seen clearly under the flickering firelight, but the chill brought by the strange arc of the corner of his mouth permeated into it. The sentinel's limbs and bones, "0919 is dead, who survived?"

Fan Chengcheng's lips trembled uncontrollably.

"You Changjing."

"Who are the three experimental results?"

"Fan Chengcheng, Cai Xukun and You Changjing."

"Look, we share a common secret."
