After Ye Zhou asked this question, the examiner opposite him was obviously stunned for a moment, but in the end he nodded solemnly.

"We will consider it."

"I'm not saying we should consider it. This is the only safe way! If it doesn't work, you can arrange a closed sanatorium! My only request is to eliminate as much as possible all opportunities for him to come into contact with the matrix project!"

"If you don't believe me, you can lock me up with him!"

The middle-aged man had already walked to the door of the inquiry room. After hearing Ye Zhou's words, he turned back and asked:

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

"I'm pretty sure!"

Ye Zhou nodded firmly.

The man sighed helplessly and said:

"This is indeed our alternative, but for humanitarian reasons, we have put it on the back burner. But if you take the initiative... I will report it to my superiors."

Ye Zhou held his hand gratefully. This scene was very strange. A man who was about to pass the review and regain his freedom was now desperately begging the other party to imprison him.

However, this is the only solution Ye Zhou can think of.

The next second the man walked out of the inquiry room, the plot began to jump quickly. Ye Zhou felt happy and realized that his choice was the right one.

After the picture became clear again, Ye Zhou found himself in a villa.

The sea is right in front of his window, and there is no trace of human habitation as far as the eye can see, but both the climate and the natural scenery are surprisingly superior.

It seems that the official finally chose a relatively humane approach, but fortunately judging from the feedback from the simulator, this approach will not cause the simulation to fail directly.

He opened the door and walked out of the room. What appeared in front of him was an extremely spacious living room, and sitting on the sofa in the living room was a man he was already very familiar with.

"Are you up?"

Wang Hai said hello to him naturally.

"Well, get up."

Ye Zhou responded, walked straight to the other party and sat down.

According to the memory fusion, this was the first day they entered this so-called nursing home, and the other party obviously knew their situation.

"How was it? I slept well."

"Yeah...it's quite comfortable, but I don't know how long I will stay here."

There was no expression of complaint or dissatisfaction on Wang Hai's face. This was the same as Ye Zhou predicted. Although the other party had undergone some unknown transformation of the brain and thinking by Chou Guo, in the basic part,

There were no problems with his personality or beliefs.

This is also the reason why he passed the review.

"It doesn't matter, come on, Anzhi. You know how to surf, right? We can go surfing."

“Can we still surf here?”

Ye Zhou asked in surprise.

"Okay. By the way, let them prepare some sunscreen. There are more than just cloudy days here."

Ye Zhou glanced out the window and saw that the sky was clear and clear.

In these short conversations, he had a vague feeling of strangeness. This feeling was not based on logical cognition, but was triggered by his talent as a planner.

However, when he tried to grasp that feeling, the trace of abnormality slipped from his mind in an instant.

So he had no choice but to continue chatting along with what the other party said.

"Yeah...but the sun is quite nice today."

"That's right. Breakfast is on the table. Do you want to eat it?"

Wang Hai took a deep breath of his cigar, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Being placed under disguised house arrest did not seem to have any negative impact on him. Ye Zhou could even tell that the other party enjoyed this state to some extent.

But that's right, he has worked hard as a scientific researcher for half his life, and it is time to enjoy himself.

Thinking of this, Ye Zhou calmly leaned on the back of the sofa, and then answered:

"I won't eat. How do you feel? I'm afraid we have to stay here for a long time."

Wang Hai smiled and replied:

"This is a rare break. Where is your family? Will they come to see you too?"

"Both my parents are in my hometown, and the official should have already said hello... If you put it this way, are visits still allowed here?"

"Yes. However, they are not allowed to leave once they are here. I will let them come over in the last few months. My child will graduate from high school the year after next."

Ye Zhou nodded and continued:

"Very good...have you discussed it with your wife?"

Wang Hai glanced at Ye Zhou in surprise and did not answer his question. Instead, he asked in a matter-of-fact tone:

"How could it be? Did I say that?"

Hearing these words, Ye Zhou's heart suddenly stopped, and then all the muscles in his body suddenly tightened.

The planner's talent was stimulated, and an unprecedented sense of danger surged up. At this moment, he finally clearly perceived where the anomaly he had captured lay.

Did I say that?

That's right, Wang Hai never said anything similar to "He has already agreed with his family to visit him in the last few months."

But from his words, Ye Zhou automatically deduced this information.

Because, Wang Hai's words were shattered.

This was the abnormality he perceived, because from the very beginning of the conversation, all of Wang Hai's language was jumpy, default, and even distorted!

The first declarative sentence he said to Ye Zhou was "How was it? I slept well."

There is nothing wrong with this sentence at first glance, but if you analyze it carefully, you will find that an important connecting sentence is missing in his words, which is the question "Did you sleep well?"

The second sentence is "It doesn't matter, come and make peace with it. You know how to surf, right? We can go surfing."

This sentence lost the prerequisite. He did not ask Ye Zhou whether he knew how to surf or whether he was interested in surfing, but directly asked him "if he would go".

The third sentence is "Okay. By the way, let them prepare some sunscreen, there are more than just cloudy days here."

The front-to-back logical inference process based on objective facts is lost.

According to normal people's diction habits, they should first say "The sunshine is very good today" and then "It's not just cloudy".

Every sentence after that has more or less this problem.

Such wording habits will make people feel uncomfortable, but it does not fundamentally affect the understanding of semantics. Only in very rare cases will it cause a situation similar to Ye Zhou's question, "Have you discussed it with your family?"

"The misunderstanding of such a question.

But even this misunderstanding can be resolved with just one additional question.

Therefore, language is not the point.

The point is, the absence of logic in his language.

Ye Zhou finally understood why the previous reviewers did not find the problem.

The reason why the inquiry room is called an inquiry room is because all review processes are based on inquiry.

Such language habits will not cause any abnormalities when dealing with problems. However, once it enters the statement context, problems begin to emerge.

Logically speaking, the interrogators should have discovered such a problem, but another extremely coincidental inducement obscured their judgment. They probably attributed the confusion to pdst, which was what their reviewers mentioned to themselves at the time.

Past content!

Ye Zhou finally understood what all the "brainwashing" was doing.

The enemy modified Wang Hai's language structure through some kind of electrical signal stimulation.

But their purpose is definitely not to make his language more difficult to understand, but to trigger changes in his thinking through changes in language.

This is the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis.

Or called, linguistic relativity.

This theory was proposed by Sapir. The main theory can be summed up in a simple sentence: the cultural concepts and classifications contained in different languages ​​will affect language users' cognition of the real world. In other words, users of different languages ​​will

Differences in language lead to differences in ways of thinking and behavior.

A language without logic will eventually lead to the absence of overall thinking logic.

In a simple proof question, we can easily deduce 2-1=1 from 11=2, but if the logic is missing, 11=2 will no longer be a prerequisite for 2-1=1, and some derivation processes will

Used as an axiom by users of such languages!

Ye Zhou carefully recalled Wang Hai's previous conversations. Just as he judged, there were no logical connectives in all the other party's sentences.

Then, he realized a more serious problem.

Language is transitive.
