Chapter 240 The respective answers
"You really are..."
"I am, without a doubt." Before Lan Tian could finish the question, Gu Yanqing gave her an affirmative answer.
At this moment, Lan Tian's expression was extremely weird. Thousands of thoughts came to her mind, and she didn't know how to face it for a moment. There was love, hate, relief, and a sense of security that was enough to make her let go of all the peace of mind.
What she has been trying to investigate all these years is not a false hallucination when she was dying. Although the form of existence is very strange, at least the person standing in front of her now is a living person who can be seen and touched. The other person told her in a positive tone, "I
yes".
These two words alone are enough to make Lan Tian feel happy.
"I didn't think too much when I saved you, and I didn't expect to put you in that situation. Now I don't know whether I did you a favor or harmed you by saving your life." Looking at the front of me.
A girl with mixed feelings, Gu Yanqing also has a lot of thoughts. They are each other's turning point in fate, but unfortunately in Gu Yanqing's eyes, this turning point is downward.
"I don't know if I should blame you. You gave me a chance to survive, but you made me lose my freedom." After being silent for a while, Lan Tian whispered.
"Hate if you want, you deserve it." Gu Yanqing stared at the blue sky, "Whether you are the child who is now occupied by me, you are all victims of my self-satisfaction. One person feels that he
When you are omnipotent, you will always do some ridiculous things. You and she are in this situation because of my arrogance. You are qualified to take revenge on me."
"I don't want revenge, that means nothing." Lan Tian just shook his head after hearing this.
"Whatever you want, I will try my best to compensate you."
"I want the truth. I want to hear from those who witnessed it at that time what happened. I also want to know if I can turn back into a human being." Lan Tian didn't hesitate and directly stated his request.
"The truth, okay, actually you know it very well in your heart. What you know is almost the same as what I know." Gu Yanqing sighed softly, "Your mother collapsed that night. She killed your father first and then tried to kill you.
Then she committed suicide. I guess it was her remaining motherhood that made her unconsciously hold back her hand when she attacked you, so you were still alive when I came to save you."
"Why are you there?" This has been Lan Tian's confusion for a long time.
"Have you ever heard of ghost roaming?" Gu Yanqing asked.
"Choose a random point to invade. There is no purpose and no traces will be left. It's just for fun or to practice..." Lan Tian, who is also a hacker, understood halfway through her words, "Is it that simple?"
"It's that simple. I also lived in District 9 at that time. When the ghost wandered into your home's surveillance system, I happened to witness the whole process, and then found that you were not dead." Gu Yanqing shrugged.
"No conspiracy? It's just a coincidence." Lan Tian gave a pale smile. Over the years, she had been fantasizing about whether her murder was involved in some big conspiracy. Maybe thinking this way would make her feel better and feel that she had something special.
place.
"There was no conspiracy, it was just a coincidence. That was the first time I saw a live broadcast of a murder." Now that she has the final answer, everything is just a delusion.
"...I understand, next question." Lan Tian exhaled a deep breath, "Can't there be any other way to save me at that time? Can I just remove my brain alone?"
"No, I'm not a doctor, I'm just a hacker." Gu Yanqing shook his head, "At that time, your body was already in systemic failure. You might be able to save your life if you were sent to the highest-level hospital in time, but that was the first hospital more than ten years ago.
In District 9, how could any high-end hospital send you to save your life? If I hadn’t been researching dream-making technology at that time, and if I hadn’t already performed several operations on my head, I would have just watched you die."
"..." Lan Tian didn't know what to say for a moment. He had to perform surgery on his own head. How crazy would he have to be to do this?
"You think I'm a madman." Gu Yanqing was keenly aware of her thoughts.
"Isn't it wrong?" Lan Tian asked back.
"Yes, I am indeed a madman." Gu Yanqing admitted generously, "Sooner or later I will pay the price for my madness. It's a pity for those unlucky people who were tired of my madness. They didn't mess with anyone.
.”
"It turns out you are self-aware."
"If you hit the wall too many times, even a lunatic will know the pain." Gu Yanqing pointed to her forehead with a wry smile, "My current situation is similar to yours, and you can best understand my feelings."
"They are trying to fish you out, I am just their bait to catch you." Lan Tian is very self-aware of his own position.
"Oh, fish me out. Even if I come out, will they be able to catch me?" Gu Yanqing's expression suddenly became distorted, "As long as these people still retain their selfishness as human beings, they will never be able to catch me.
To deal with one ghost you have to rely on another ghost."
"You!" Lan Tian's eyes suddenly changed, "Have you completely given up your body?!"
"Yes, these are also one of the reasons why they want me. Not only because I know all their identities, but also because my existence has achieved immortality in a sense. Who doesn't like immortality?" Gu Yanqing sneered.
.
"Hiss..." Everyone present took a deep breath.
Give up the body? Eternal life? Although scientists brag every day that today's technology is just short of breaking through a layer of window paper between uploading personality consciousness, this layer of window paper has been as impenetrable as a city wall for decades, let alone even if it is technically possible to achieve this.
This thing doesn't make sense in terms of ethics in today's society. People can't even define whether the being who achieves immortality is still a human being or a complete artificial intelligence that only inherits the personality of the deceased.
"If you are really as powerful as you say, why don't you just reveal the identity of the person pretending to be you to the world?" What surprised Gu Yanqing was that the first person to wake up from the shock was not the person she thought understood her best.
Lan Tian, but the inconspicuous policeman Chen Long.
Gu Yanqing didn't say a word, and the strange silence proved that Aaron had just asked a question that Gu Yanqing didn't want to answer, a question that went straight to the core.
"Do they have the back-up plan to die with you?" Aaron saw something from the silence, and asked as if he was blessed.
Gu Yanqing still didn't say a word, but this silence was considered acknowledgment.
"You're a ghost that's completely invisible and intangible." Aaron laughed at him.
"I'm a ghost, not a god." Gu Yanqing retorted angrily.
"You still have one last question for me, can I return to a normal human being?" Seeing Aaron chatting away in just two sentences, Lan Tian hurriedly asked his own question.
"It depends on how you define human beings in your eyes." Gu Yanqing replied.
"You know what human beings I'm talking about." Lan Tian stared at her stubbornly.
"That can't be done." Gu Yanqing shook his head, "You and your brain have adapted to the mechanical body for too long. Even if you can clone a new body by extracting DNA, your brain will not be able to adapt to a machine with poor functions.
If your natural body is damaged, the result of forcibly changing clothes will be that you become a vegetative person paralyzed in bed, and your nervous system is completely unable to process the signals sent by the brain that is accustomed to high-performance terminals."
"But you are not now..."
"That's because I gave up everything that originally belonged to me." Gu Yanqing interrupted her coldly, "I don't need a brain to adapt, I only need to adapt to this girl's brain, it's software and hardware.
Difference, don't tell me you don't understand."
Lan Tian is speechless. If she accepts the other party's method, everything will be put before the horse.
"Sorry, I will help you if I can." An apology came from Gu Yanqing's side.
"Let's go, I have nothing else to ask." At this moment, Lan Tian's interest has waned. Although the questions in her heart for many years have been answered, the hopes she had held for many years have also been shattered. Now she just wants to be alone and quiet.
Slowly sort out your emotions.
"Wait!" At this moment, Miss Luo suddenly stood up and stood in front of Gu Yanqing. Her legs were shaking slightly because of fear and nervousness, but she still stood up.
"You want your sister back." Gu Yanqing looked at her calmly.
"You gave me hope, and you have the responsibility to make it come true!" Miss Luo knew that her words were nonsense, but so what if she was nonsense, things in this world are inherently unreasonable.
"I can give you back a terminal that has the same appearance and voice as your sister, has all the memories of her life except before she was killed, and has a personality that roughly matches the impressions of you and your mother, but she will never grow up.
It will never change. People cannot be resurrected after death. All I can give you is the ghost of the past. Do you want it?" Gu Yanqing stared into her eyes and asked very seriously.
"I..." Miss Luo's eyes briefly became confused, but quickly solidified again, "I want it!"
"Believe me, the final outcome will be only pain." Gu Yanqing gave the final warning.
"I want it!" Miss Luo's voice sounded louder, as if she was fighting for something with someone.
"I understand." Gu Yanqing nodded bitterly, "Give me three days, and what you want will come to your door."
"It's a deal!" Miss Luo shouted with all her strength.
