 …

 Amidst the ice and snow, the medical room was silent.

Icy blue manjus and sandalwoods bloomed everywhere. They are obviously flowers that represent death and despair, but they bloom like brilliant spring jasmine flowers. The surrounding glass cabinets, medical boxes, operating tables... were all covered with a beautiful layer of frost, and everything fell into the ice cave.

Su Mingan loosened his grip on Beiliseer, and there were faint traces of frostbite on his hands. He exhaled softly, and white mist lingered in front of his eyes.

In front of him, the white-haired boy had turned into a beautiful ice sculpture. The boy's head was hanging slightly, his arms were stretched out, still maintaining the hugging posture. Hundreds of ice flowers were dotted on his thin frost body. , as beautiful as a painting.

His blue pupils were covered with a thick layer of ice, and it was no longer clear what was reflected in the pupils. Su Mingan took a few steps back, and the ice shards on his body fell.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

 A USB flash drive fell to the ground. Su Mingan steadied his steps, picked it up, and inserted it into the personal terminal he carried with him.

 …

　　【According to the transfer authority of (North Lisel), you have obtained the Caiusta administrator rights of (North Lisel). 】

 …

At the last moment, North Lisel transferred the authority as one of the nine seats to Su Mingan. Now Su Mingan also has the authority to enter and exit the building's rooms.

 Insert the USB disk into the personal terminal, and the picture will appear on the screen. It was that valley many years ago, with swaying peach blossoms and spring in all seasons. A group of strange-looking people with household appliances crowded in front of the camera.

 “Xiaobei.”

　　Some mute mechanical sounds came out, they stared at the camera, their tone was very gentle.

 This should be a screen recording before the gods broke into the valley, and everyone was still alive.

“Today is September 1st, 1970, Xiaobei, I wish you a happy birthday. There are only two years left before 1972, and we want to leave our words to you.”

“The valley is not an absolutely safe place. Sooner or later, as the world becomes more and more dangerous, we cannot escape the flames of war.”

“If one day, we really leave you, don’t be sad. Those of us should have died in the war many years ago. Even if we live in home appliances now, we are just ghosts with bodies.”

"How do humans evaluate free will? With the body, with the brain, or with the ethereal soul? With human sensibility, compassion, or the similar behavior of reciting poetry in suffering? If all the parts of a ship have been replaced , will it still be the same ship as before? If human consciousness is extracted and poured into these ugly appliances, will we still be us?"

"But even if we become a lifeless mechanical body, our heart of loving you and caring for you has never changed."

“About Asa Akto, we were once told by him to protect you when you enter the two-dimensional world. But I didn’t expect that it would be your turn to protect us in the end.”

"We support you in continuing to wait for him, no matter what, this is your wish. Life is a long dream, some are beautiful, some are absurd, and death is just waking up from a dream. We should also give blessings."

"in addition."

"[We are still willing to serve as test samples in the box for you to complete this round of three-dimensional simulation. I hope to achieve a more perfect ending. Not only for the survivors, but also for the wider world and the future... no matter how small it is. However, we are all willing to try. Perhaps, this is the embodiment of human nature. Even if we become electronic sheep in a box, we will still want to leave more grass for the sheep.】"

 “These topics are a bit heavy, and we usually don’t bring them up when we play with you.”

“But if one day you find this USB flash drive hidden in your pocket, please know that [death and life do not mean the end for us, but may be the beginning.]”

 “So, please keep smiling.”

 “Don’t be sad, don’t cry, don’t be confused by the aging of your soul.”

 “We love you, we love you, we love you.”

 “If one day, spring really comes and we are no longer here.”

“[We are also willing to leave you alone to live in the spring scenery].”

“If you want us to come back, you can build the Ship of Theseus and allow our consciousness and body to be reborn virtually. You can call this plan [Garden of Eden].”

 “Or, dreaming.”

 …

 The screen flashed and all playback on the USB disk ended.

Su Mingan moved and heard a "click" sound on his back. The scarlet hose behind him fell off due to the extremely low temperature. Beilisel used the last burst of life force to help him get out of the dilemma of emotional resonance.

Without the pull of these hoses, Su Mingan immediately used spatial displacement to reach the corridor directly above the medical room.

 He holds up the hidden realm of space and walks in the corridor. There were constant sounds of smashing and smashing from below. It should be that the gods and others were trying to force their way into the medical room. Su Ming'an did not have much time to move freely. If the gods found out that Su Ming'an was no longer in the medical room, they would definitely raid the entire building.

 Su Mingan granted AI Yaya the nine-seat authority over North Lisel, allowing it to find the key to the building.

"Doctor, we have two places to go." Ten seconds later, AI Yeya replied: "One is underground of the building, and the other is the lobby near the rooftop. The entrance permissions of these two places are the highest, but there are two different places inside. What is it? Time is limited and I cannot investigate it for the time being. I wonder where you choose to go?"

"That's it." Su Mingan said, "Go underground first."

AI Yeya was quite impressed and said: "As expected of a doctor, for such a two-choice topic, a slightly wrong choice may affect the fate of the entire world, but you are so decisive. You must feel that the underground has the highest priority, so you decided to go first Underground. I wonder what is the basis for your judgment? Can you let me learn from your thinking mode? "

Su Mingan used the space to hide, and stepped on the air conditioner from outside the building and slipped down.

 “Guess.” His expression remained unchanged.

 AI Ye Ya stopped talking.

 Obviously it finds nothing worth learning from this mode of thinking.

Two minutes later, Su Mingan arrived at the basement entrance. With the help of spatial displacement + spatial concealment barrier, and the monitoring assistance of AI Yeya, he felt like he was in a deserted place in the building.

Su Mingan heard the clear voice of Xiaomei outside the window.

Team Mu told her that in this world live broadcast, she can talk about any topic, as long as what she says can instill her feelings, and the more sincere the better. Once her voice reaches people's ears, Team Mourinho can begin to decipher the resonance.

“…Human beings have liked to watch exciting things since ancient times, with twists and turns, exciting and interesting things. Because my life is too boring, I yearn for such scenes.” Xiaomei’s voice was a little trembling, but her words were clear:

“But I am just a boring person, and I have never dreamed of writing any legendary stories outside of my difficult life.”

“I wanted a wishing machine that could make any wish come true, and I wanted a carefree childhood, but in the end I only had a static time, and no matter how much I fantasized, I couldn’t let myself grow wings and fly into the sky.”

“When I was a teenager, I picked up some storybooks in a garbage dump, and I began to imagine that I could save the city of measurement, or one day liberate the fringe area, so that everyone could live freely and equally...”

 “But nothing changes, everything is monotonous and boring repetition.”

“I think even if a crisis breaks out and the doomsday comes, I can’t be a superhero. I’m just cannon fodder underneath the hero and will be kicked to death by the minions.”

"Now I want to find a job, but I find that no one seems to like me. I want to go out and relax, but I don't have the time or money. I want to relax, but I am tortured by guilt and pressure all the time. I want to be healthy, but I still stay up late every day. . I want to pursue my dreams, but I am always suppressed by reality.”

"When I was very young, I was driven to the street, waiting for someone to pass me at night. At that time, I suffered from lung disease and was always coughing. Who cares about the diseases and misfortunes of inferior personalities? They only value me. s face…"

Su Ming'an listened for a while. He didn't expect Xiaomei to say such sincere words. This was a live broadcast that hundreds of millions of people listened to, but she revealed her past so **** and exposed it to everyone.

Although people in the two-dimensional world may not understand the topics Xiaomei talks about such as "marginal zone" and "city of measurement", it is enough for people to understand how miserable her life is.

Facing one’s past is not a good thing, it can even be painful, let alone taking the initiative to uncover these painful scars.

“Team Mu, tell her that there are some things that don’t need to be discussed in too much detail,” Su Mingan said.

 He had already heard Xiaomei starting to talk about her night work, which had always been her nightmare. Perhaps she over-understood Team Mu's instructions. She believed that as long as she spoke the most sincere words, she could save more people who resonated with her. For this reason, it didn't matter even if the whole world heard her bleakness and filthiness.

  In any case, she will be the only one who is rejected in the end and feels inferior and miserable. It's good if everyone is still alive. That's what she thought.

 Xiaomei is indeed a silly girl.

She has no understanding of the cruelty of the world at all. Even if she reveals this information to help everyone, when the limelight passes, they will still secretly dislike her dirty past and criticize her family background.

Su Mingan knew this kind of thing very well when he was a child.

　　　…”

 The text box in front of him flashed for a while.

 …

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 (23:06)：For her to tell the truth like this is beneficial to the situation and helps me crack the resonance. I will not persuade her. 】

 …

"You are really crueler than me." Su Mingan glanced at the blue bar and immediately moved into the basement.

 …

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 (23:06): You don’t have to be cruel, you can have compassion, and I will be cruel for you. 】

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 (23:06): We are in the basement, so be silent. 】

 …

There was no light in the basement. Su Mingan groped for the wall and heard a buzzing sound when he walked through an open door.

 “Click—”

There was a crisp sound, and the surrounding area was bright. In the center of the half-moon curved table in the basement is a swivel chair with its back to Su Ming'an. There is a figure on the swivel chair.

Su Mingan immediately became alert and took a step back. He was silent all the way. Logically speaking, no one should be sitting here waiting for him.

There was a creaking sound from the swivel chair, and it slowly turned from its back to Su Ming'an until the figure was facing Su Ming'an directly—

 In Su Mingan's shocked gaze, the figure spoke with a smile:

"Welcome here."

"Hello."

 “I am Asa Acto.”
