Emmalie was silent for a while and sent a document to An Nan. After opening it, she placed the holographic projection in front of the sand sculpture.
"What's this?"
Emmary asked him to scroll down to the end, and he finally remembered after seeing the editor's name and photo.
"Nano bugs? This thing was my invention ten years ago, but it was banned due to technical reasons. How did you find these materials? If I remember correctly, these materials should have been secretly destroyed.
"
Emmary shook her head and said: "Although the external news is that it was destroyed secretly, no one actually saw the data being destroyed with their own eyes. All people saw were the videos of the destruction of nanobots and the destruction of laboratories."
Sha Diao frowned, and Mu Ran thought about one thing clearly: "You mean... they didn't actually destroy the information, but kept it secretly?"
"It is possible. At present, we suspect that someone has been infected by this kind of nanorobot. Now I want to know what is different about the nanoworm you invented?"
He recalled that when he invented the nanorobot ten years ago, he discovered that the nanorobot would fuse after coming into contact with organic matter in the human blood. After the fusion, the nanorobot became more like some kind of strange parasite.
Once they enter the human body, it is difficult to remove them from the human body.
"Those nanorobots, I call them nanobugs, because once they enter the human body, they will evolve into organic mechanical parasites, attach themselves to cells and host the human body. Over time, the nanobots will inhibit the secretion of human emotions and emotional hormones.
For example, generally speaking, the relationship between lovers will gradually weaken and eventually part ways, which will either make people feel low or high..."
At this point, he suddenly paused and recalled what those people had said to him. They told him that the nanorobot he invented seriously endangered the safety of human life and social order, saying that his invention violated human ethics.
, violated their moral conscience, so considering the disastrous consequences of the invention, they destroyed the evidence and permanently revoked Shadiao's status as a scientist.
He was silent for a while and continued: "Once people's emotions are weakened or even eliminated, can you imagine the consequences?
People who love each other separate, people who know each other gradually become distant, and when a loved one dies, my heart remains indifferent...
Until the end, everyone becomes cold-blooded and ruthless, and some even lose their minds, become extremely irritable or extremely weak...
'This is a weapon capable of annihilating all humanity', this is how they judged my invention..."
silence.
He could only remain silent. The world is like this. You can't resist the rules of this world. While it gives you benefits, it also prepares you for bad things in the future, leaving you unable to refute it and can only sink into the world's rules.
The cage, that invisible and intangible transparent shackles can never be opened.
…
After the interrogation, Annan and Liszt returned to the Southern District Branch. Before leaving, Su Shiding and Liszt had a verbal battle as a farewell gift.
The next morning, An Nan entered Duke's room before he woke up, sat on the chair opposite the bed and closed his eyes to meditate.
It wasn't until the alarm clock rang suddenly that Duke and An Nan were awakened at the same time.
Duke sat up panting, looking like he had a nightmare. He looked at An Nan again, staring at him calmly, looking at him sitting there shirtless, with not too obvious muscle lines, and he was fair and fair.
Her skin is like that of a woman, delicate and smooth.
Duke suddenly spotted An Nan in his peripheral vision, turned his head suddenly and stared at An Nan, and asked her in surprise: "How did you come in, and when did you come in?"
An Nan stared at his bare arms, his eyes sliding from his neck to his navel. When he was about to go down, Duke had already put on his clothes.
"There's something I want to talk to you about."
Duke wondered: "It doesn't have to be so early. How did you get in?"
An Nan pointed to the door of the room and said, "You don't even lock the door when you sleep, aren't you just waiting for me to come in?"
Duke glanced at the door, put his hand on his forehead and shook his head repeatedly. While shaking his head, he quickly thought of the reason for smoothing things over: "I never lock the door when I sleep at home. Besides, the door was not closed tightly after the senior left my room yesterday, so I also
I haven’t been out for days.”
"Okay, okay." An Nan interrupted him and said, "Let's change the topic. I came to you because I have something to ask you."
Duke nodded and said, "Ask."
An Nan adjusted herself, cleared her throat and asked, "I saw the cryptex your father left behind once a long time ago."
Duke was surprised again and also doubtful.
"Have you seen it? When and where?"
Seeing his reaction like this, An Nan thought about it but didn't know where to start.
"It's... my aunt's business..."
Halfway through her words, she accidentally saw Duke's indifferent eyes and asked him worriedly, "Are you...are you okay?"
Duke shook his head but remained silent. An Nan didn't know what to say at this moment. Emmali told her that Duke might have nanobots on him. If she hadn't seen Duke's reaction now, she might not have believed it.
If she didn't know about this kind of nanorobot that can control human emotion hormones, she might think that Duke is a cold-blooded person.
She touched her earlobe and changed the topic to get rid of the current dilemma: "Do you have any idea about the cryptex?"
Duke took out the cryptex from the drawer, looked at the sun totem on it, and was silent for a long time.
"There is something that feels very strange to me, but I can't put my finger on what is strange."
He opened the lid and looked at the broken screen inside, and continued without any sadness on his face: "My mother... died. When I saw that scene, I really, almost collapsed, but now... I
, but my heart is extremely peaceful. Even if I think about the pictures I saw and every bit of life with my mother, I still can’t feel sad. I... I really don’t understand what’s wrong with me.
…Is it because I know they are not my biological parents?”
An Nan lowered his head and recalled that incident. At that time, they were still members of the Stegosaurus Special Forces. When they participated in the first actual combat mission, their mission goal was to kill a man holding a metal cipher box and seize it.
The cryptex in his hand, but they killed the target in that mission, and the cryptex was taken away by that person's bodyguard. It wasn't until she saw the identity information of Duke's parents that she knew that the bodyguard was actually Duke.
Father who has passed away.
Blinking, she looked up at Duke and told him what she had just recalled.
At this time, Emmary was walking towards Duke's room, her expression serious and worried.
When she reached the door, she pushed it open without saying a word. She glanced at An Nan and immediately turned her attention to Duke: "Get up and take you for a checkup."
