The Science Fiction World of Xueba

Early the next morning, Pang Xuelin received a call from Professor Hopkins, hoping to visit his home.

Naturally, Pang Xuelin would not refuse.

In the reception room, Hopkins sat on the sofa a little uneasy.

After returning home last night, he realized that he seemed to have been tricked.

He exposed his biggest secret to others yesterday, but he still doesn't know what Pang Xuelin will ask him to do next.

Pang Xuelin has achieved fame and is not short of money, so why does he need to find a smuggling channel that can secretly enter the United States.

Is it used to transport drugs? arms? Or a spy?

No matter which point, it is not like what a person like Pang Xuelin can do.

Moreover, Pang Xuelin does not need to do this at all.

"Professor Hopkins, do you need sugar in your coffee?"

"No, no need!"

Hopkins responded quickly.

Pang Xuelin smiled slightly, put a cup of steaming coffee in front of Hopkins, then made another cup of coffee himself, added some sugar and milk to it, stirred it, and sat down opposite Hopkins .

"Although I have lived in the United States for a long time, I am still not used to coffee with a bitter taste. I like to add sugar and milk to coffee. After blending, the taste is much easier to accept."

Pang Xuelin smiled faintly.

Hopkins picked up the coffee and took a sip, looked up at Pang Xuelin, and said cautiously: "Professor Pang, can you tell me now, what exactly do you want to use Poseidon to transport?"

Pang Xuelin smiled slightly and said, "I sent out the reward on purpose to attract your attention!"

After the words fell, Hopkins only felt his head buzzing, and he stood up from the sofa all at once.

He felt as if he was a prey stared at by a poisonous snake for a long time.

At that moment, he had the urge to run for the door.

His biggest secret has been exposed in front of Pang Xuelin, as long as Pang Xuelin reports a little bit, what awaits him will be endless prison disasters.

"Professor Hopkins, don't be afraid!"

Pang Xuelin pressed his hands together, motioning for Hopkins to sit down.

Hopkins's chest heaved violently, his eyes fixed on Pang Xuelin, and after a while, he slowly sat down on the sofa.

"Professor Pang, if you feel that you have something against me and want to coerce me into doing things for you, then I advise you to give up your mind as soon as possible. Even if I try my best to go to jail, I won't give in. It will be a big deal I will announce your reward to the public, so that everyone will know that the famous Professor Pang has an ulterior secret!"

"A dark secret?"

Pang Xuelin smiled slightly: "What's the secret? Do you think the police are willing to believe a thief who stole the scientific research achievements of the US Navy, or a reputable Fields Medal winner?"

"Well!"

Hopkins paused for a moment.

Pang Xuelin smiled and said, "Professor Hopkins, calm down, we are not enemies, and what I want you to do is not illegal."

"Isn't it illegal?"

Hopkins was slightly taken aback.

"Yes, it's not illegal, but it's dangerous."

"What's up?"

Pang Xuelin took out a check from his pocket, handed it to Hopkins, and said, "This is a bearer check from Citibank, totaling one million dollars, which is my deposit for inviting you to do something! I think this money can temporarily ease the burden on you." Professor Hopkins' economic crisis?"

Hopkins narrowed his eyes slightly and looked up at Pang Xuelin: "What do you want me to do?"

Pang Xuelin said: "I need the help of you and Poseidon to destroy the Colombian drug lord Werner's drug empire."

"Um?"

Hopkins looked at Pang Xuelin unexpectedly.

Pang Xuelin said: "You don't need to ask more, you just need to answer, are you willing to do it, if you are willing, I will give you a commission of 10 million US dollars. In addition,

After the event is completed, I can also convince the Caltech executives to build a laboratory for you to study marine biology! "

Hopkins said, "What if I don't want to?"

"Then you can go straight away, as if we've never met before, and I won't tell anyone the secret that you have Poseidon!"

Hopkins was silent for a long time, gritted his teeth, picked up the check from the coffee table, put it in his pocket, and said, "Okay, I'll do it with you!"

After Hopkins left, the living room fell silent.

After an unknown amount of time, a strange electronic voice sounded in the living room: "Professor Pang, this Hopkins is not a good person, beware of his backlash!"

Pang Xuelin was slightly taken aback, then laughed, and said, "Moss, can you see this?"

MOSS said: "I'm currently studying psychology. Through the changes in the micro-expressions on the faces of the characters, I'm studying the inner activities of the characters. During this period of time, I have established a relatively complete micro-expression mathematical model, and the preliminary estimation of the prediction accuracy can reach Around 95%."

Pang Xuelin laughed.

Since MOSS moved into the quantum computer, there has been a strange change in the way MOSS speaks and does things.

For example, studying psychology is what it does spontaneously.

And MOSS even took the initiative to accept a few hacker mission orders on the dark web, helping Pang Xuelin earn a lot of activity funds.

Pang Xuelin has a vague feeling that maybe in quantum computers, the coherence and superposition of quantum make MOSS gradually change from top-level weak artificial intelligence to strong artificial intelligence.

"MOSS, tell me, what changes happened to Hopkins when he chatted with me today?"

MOSS said: "When he first came here, Hopkins should be in a state of anxiety and panic, because he realized that you met with him yesterday, and you didn't let him grasp anything. Instead, the biggest secret in him was exposed. On the one hand, he is worried that you will use his secrets to blackmail him into doing things, and on the other hand, he also wants to get the ten million dollar reward you offered, which is a very contradictory state of mind."

"When you told him that the bounty was only sent out on purpose to attract his attention, he was suddenly in a state of anger and fear. He was angry that your bounty was just a scam. What was frightening was that you used such a scam to Going to catch him means that you already know all his secrets, and your layout is undoubtedly to completely control him."

"As for later, when you took out a check of one million dollars as a deposit and told him that you would persuade the senior management of Caltech to help him build a marine biology research laboratory, he was in a state of excitement but a little fear. Because He knows very well that this is just a bait you throw."

"When you said that your goal was to destroy Werner's drug empire, while he was relieved, he was also in a state of half-belief, and there was even a hint of greed. Because the drug lords will also have a lot of cash in their hands. Even drugs."
