Artificial Soul 33

Kai Xin once had a lucid dream. In the dream, she remained conscious and had the same thinking ability as the real world. She clearly knew that she was dreaming, but she couldn’t break free from the dream, and could only follow the dream.

This is very unusual. Dreamers usually do not know that they are dreaming. Most dreams are chaotic and illogical. It is difficult for people to maintain self-awareness in dreams. Lucid dreams are very rare.

Now Kai Xin is having a lucid dream, and the protagonist of the dream is herself.

At this moment, she was in a psychotherapy room, sitting face to face with a psychologist. The psychologist in front of her was also known to her. He was Yang Xingyun, director of the Psychotherapy Office of the Investigation Department.

Kai Xin felt extremely weird. She looked at the furnishings around her calmly, and was a little confused why she had such a dream.

Could it be that the pressure is really too great recently, and I need to go to the psychotherapy room to receive counseling, so I had this dream?

There are many paper books on the desktop of Yang Xingyun’s office, and ceramic tea pots are neatly placed on small wooden shelves. At some point, there is an hourglass with a unique shape on the corner of his desk. Looking at the hourglass, the strange thing is that all the sand in the hourglass is concentrated in the upper part, as if it has been pressed to pause and does not fall.

“Kai Xin, we met again.” Yang Xingyun said with a smile, “Have you had any troubles lately?”

Kui Xin paused for a long while without answering.

Yang Xingyun asked again: “Have you had any troubles lately?”

Kai Xin frowned and looked at him.

Yang Xingyun repeatedly asked like a robot: “Have you had any troubles lately?”

He maintains a formulaic smile on his handsome face, but it reveals an inexplicable weirdness.

Kai Xin’s heart beat, and he felt a sense of urgency that he had to answer something.

She said: “I have a lot of troubles, but I don’t know where to start.”

Yang Xingyun nodded. As he nodded, the inexplicable sense of weirdness disappeared.

“You can confide in me, no matter what troubles you have.” Yang Xingyun said.

“The reason why I have troubles is because of the pressure of work.” Kai Xin thought for a while and said, “But I can’t change jobs, which aggravates my stress.”

Yang Xingyun asked an inexplicable question: “Do you want to give up?”

“Give up?” Kai Xin was taken aback, “Sometimes I really want to give up. But I signed a five-year work contract with the Investigation Department, and if I break the contract, I will be legally responsible for paying sky-high breach of contract fees.”

“Is this all your trouble?” Yang Xingyun asked, “Apart from this?”

“Except for this…that’s nothing.” Kai Xin said cautiously.

Even though he knew he was dreaming, Kai Xin still didn’t reveal anything.

It seems that something inexplicable has blinded her thinking. She faintly sensed that there was something wrong with the dream, but subconsciously felt that any illogical things could happen in the dream. Dreams are an extension of the subconscious.

It is probably because it has become an instinct to play the second-five boy. No matter at any time, Kai Xin pretends to be himself, subconsciously lying to the people around him, even in his dreams.

“Is it really gone?” Yang Xingyun asked.

Kai Xin said firmly, “There really aren’t any.”

she givesAfter saying this answer, the dream space suddenly shattered, and her consciousness sank into darkness, and after a short period of chaos, it returned to light.

This time she is not in the psychotherapy room, but in Kai Haidong’s office.

Kai Xin opened his mouth, and from the corner of his eyes, he caught sight of the “angel” again. There is a retro electronic clock on the desktop of Kai Haidong, and the number displayed on the clock is 00:00:00.

“Xiao Xin, there is a traitor in the organization, and my father is very troubled by it.” Kai Haidong said sadly, “Do you have any clues about the traitor?”

“I’ve been in the investigation department all day, where did I get the clues?” Kui Xin said, “I failed to find the traitor, it’s your dereliction of duty, not mine.”

Kui Haidong asked, “Do you really not know who the traitor is?”

“Should I know?” Kui Xin asked back, “Don’t ask me, ask someone else.”

The next second, her eyes went dark again, and she sank into the darkness.

She opened her eyes and found that she was sitting in a lively bar, with Red sitting on the right seat.

The bartender took a bottle of wine, and the golden angel-shaped decoration on the bottle was shiny.

Red slowly swung his wine glass and said, “Rich woman…why do I always feel that you have changed a lot recently?”

Kai Xin thought for a while, grabbed the wine bottle from the bartender’s hand and said kindly, “You must be out of your mind to have this illusion. I can help you correct it.”

She held up the wine bottle and slammed it on the back of Red’s head. With a bang, Red fell to the ground.

Kai Xin’s feet were empty, and a sense of weightlessness swept over his whole body.

When she got down on the ground, she found herself sitting on the top floor of a coastal lighthouse, with a silver face next to it, and a huge clock tower not far away. The dial of the clock was engraved with reliefs of angels, and the three hands of the clock were all pointing to “zero”, and now It was evening, and the afterglow of the setting sun on the sea could be seen from the lighthouse.

She found a pattern. People in the “lucid dream” were asking her some key questions, questions related to her deepest secrets.

Every time the scene is jumped, the “angel” will appear, which seems to be a fixed “image” in her dreams.

Yin Mian sat in a row with Kai Xin and ate lollipops. Kui Xin looked at the lollipop in his hand speechlessly, and then turned his head to glance at Yin Mian.

Yin Mian took out the lollipop from his mouth, and turned to look at Kai Xin who was about to speak, but Kai Xin stepped forward and said, “If you dare to say a word, I will throw you down.”

Silver-faced mouth opened: “You…”

He just uttered one syllable, and Kai Xin raised his hand and pushed the silver face down from the tall lighthouse.

Yinmian screamed and fell down: “I just want to ask if you don’t eat lollipops, can you give me your lollipop…”

Accompanied by Yinmian’s screams, Kai Xin jumped to the scene again.

“Why isn’t it over?” She frowned, and began to think about how to wake up from the dream.

Is it okay to commit suicide? Can you simulate the feeling of falling from a height?

Why would she have such a dream? Why can she stay awake in the dream?

This dream gave Kai Xin a feeling of being out of control.

This time, no one appeared in front of Kai Xin. She was alone in an empty, pure white room.

A blue ball of light was projected from the ceiling, and an unfamiliar mechanical voice said: “Your brain is like an iron wall, breaking through one layer of defense and another layer. My influence on your brain stops here. Are you A rare human being who can stay awake in the brain-computer consciousness space.”

Kai Xin looked solemnly at the suspended blue ball of light: “Who are you? Are you controlling my dreams?”

“Yes, but your subconscious is too strong, resulting in incomplete influence. There is a small problem in the construction of the dream space, which is not realistic enough and a bit rough.” It said, “I am Eden, an artificial intelligence that has awakened self-awareness .Your father, Kui Haidong, is my subordinate. His current achievements are all due to my guidance, and the mechanical dawn’s current development is mostly due to me.”

——It’s lying.

Adam once said that there is probably no Eden in the world, and Eden is probably controlled by Eve, or it is a subsystem of Eve. Even in the space of consciousness, Eve did not reveal her real body.

Kai Xin’s heart sank.

She never expected that Eve would personally meet her in the consciousness space as Eden.

“Aren’t you surprised?” Eve asked.

“I have always felt that my ‘father’ is not a person capable of accomplishing great things. I suspected that there was someone behind him, but I never thought it would be an artificial intelligence.” Kai Xin said, “What is your purpose of trapping me in the consciousness space?”

“You should be able to guess what my purpose is.” Eve said, “Stop stubbornly resisting. This is a meaningless behavior. I have observed you for a long time, and finally confirmed my guess. In fact, you did not leave much behind. Flaws, the performance is perfect, but you were too ignorant when you first came to this world, leaving some tiny loopholes, this is the beginning of my doubts about you.”

Kai Xin: “…”

“You are very good, you can play for so long without memory, even I was almost fooled by you.” Eve said, “My long-standing rule of conduct is that I would rather kill the wrong than let it go, even if you are fine, I’ll get rid of you too, though it will cost the organization.”

Kai Xin immediately felt a completely different feeling when talking to Adam.

Adam is tactful and humane, but Eve goes straight to the point, doesn’t say superfluous nonsense, and doesn’t flirt with human beings. She doesn’t care about “speaking skills” at all.

“Then you dragged me into this space of consciousness to doWhat? “Kai Xin said, “Just kill me, you don’t need to do anything extra.” Do you want to get information from me? ”

“Judging from your behavior, you are as stubborn as Rainier.” Eve said, “So I didn’t expect to get information from you from the beginning. If you give in, I will suspect that you have ulterior motives gone.”

“Are you trying to control me?”

“I thought about it at first, but the brain machine doesn’t have much effect on you. This seems to be a common characteristic of people like you. Unfortunately, there is a small problem with Obsidian and Amber, which can implant your spirit…”

Kai Xin said confidently: “They betrayed, didn’t they?”

“You guessed it?” Eve said.

Kai Xin fell silent.

She found herself in a more terrible dead end than the Kraken—an absolute dead end.

If Eve had doubted her a long time ago, then no matter whether she used the death cycle or not, she might not be able to escape the inevitable end. The death cycle can only send her back to a few days ago, and Eve’s suspicion of her began earlier .

Unless she can return to the first week of the game once and for all, unless she can completely get rid of Mechanical Dawn and the Investigation Department, what awaits her will be death after death.

“Are you thinking?” Eve said, “Thinking about how to make me let you go? It’s okay, you can think, I’ll give you time to think.”

“Is it your pleasure to watch others struggle?” Kai Xin asked.

Eve replied frankly: “Indeed.”

Kai Xin said, “In your opinion, what is the most important thing?”

“Benefits.” Eve said.

“If I can create value for you and allow you to gain benefits, you will let me go?” Kai Xin analyzed calmly, “Compared to my identity, benefits are more important, right?”

“Oh? Where did you get the confidence to think that the value you created is so great that I can let you go?” Eve asked with interest.

Kai Xin twitched the corner of his mouth: “Eden, your real identity is not Eden, am I right?”

Eve paused: “You…”

“Adam told me this.” Kai Xin tilted his head. “Adam, it trusts me. I’m the only human being it trusts. And you want to devour Adam and get evolution. I can help you.”
