"You can know gains and losses by using people as a mirror, and you can know the rise and fall by using history as a mirror." Dulan said: "If you don't look at history, how can you know that human beings are always making the same mistakes? As science and technology develop, some things will regress, and then everyone will
They will shirk the responsibility on technology, but will not reflect on themselves."
"So you sympathize with these criminals?" Togusa said.
"Are they criminals? They make worthless orphans create value. As far as the island country is concerned, what they do is not a crime. After all, island people judge their social status based on their annual income. Without an annual income, they are not considered human beings. So.
What they do is just animal experiments. They will not arrest people with annual income, but will only attack refugees and orphans. This is not the fault of the criminals, but the fault of living in this country." Duran said: "Everyone
Equality, but some people are more equal.”
"..." Togusa couldn't accept this statement and asked: "What do you think of life?"
"It doesn't matter what I regard life as. As long as this society operates like ancient Greece, this kind of behavior will inevitably occur. In the end, even the soul will have to be marked with a price. It's useless if you think it's wrong. That's how it works. You think it's wrong?
, those 500-barrel households, 300-barrel households, and 200-barrel households think this is the case, and they are not differentiated by blood, but by each person's annual income."
Togusa stopped talking. He solved the case first, then went home to read books and study history. After studying, he would come back to confront Dulan.
A little boy wearing a data collection jacket ran out of the almshouse and was chased by an armed security guard. The boy ran forward helplessly, panting heavily and not stopping, as if there was hope ahead.
This is a workhouse, and there are only children inside. Is it necessary for the security guards to wear exoskeletons and carry rifles? This is obviously abnormal.
This almshouse has a relationship with a number of smart companies, and its background is very complicated. Obviously, the so-called disappearances are actually human experiments, and the missing people died as a result of cruel experiments.
The content of the experiment is to stimulate human nerves and collect body data. Human consciousness enters the network and conducts various experiments on the network. When consciousness is disturbed, the body will also react. This is the purpose of the experiment. This data can be used to design attacks.
Software can also be used for body transformation and treatment...
In short, the more data, the better. The almshouse is a place for human experimentation.
Now that a boy has escaped, Section 9 immediately rescues and launches an attack.
Another case was solved, but no one was very happy. When a cockroach was found in the house, it meant that there was already a nest of cockroaches in the house.
Whether it was the soul of a refugee girl or the human experiments on orphans, Section 9 realized that human experiments in this country were no longer being carried out all the time.
Even Motoko Kusanagi herself was the result of human experimentation. She was the first generation of human beings with full-body prosthetics. It is said that because of the plane crash, all the passengers on the plane died, and she was the only survivor. She was only a few years old at the time, although she was still alive
, but her body was seriously damaged. At this time, the company took the initiative to find her and proposed that the whole body except the brain could be prosthetized.
Finally, she agreed and became the first generation of prosthetics.
But occasionally she would wonder if this part of the memory was a scam implanted by the prosthetic company? Today's technology can rewrite people's memories. It is obviously not her own story, but she still believes it.
Even the soul has been interfered with, and memories and emotions are not worth mentioning. It is possible to write fake memories to look like real ones.
The two cases made everyone feel bad. After all, this kind of human experiment has no bottom line.
Dulan thinks it's normal. After all, capitalists dare to take risks if they have 300% profit. As long as you master the technology of artificial intelligence and create better robots, you can make a lot of money.
There is nothing the Nine Lessons can do about black-hearted companies. Even if they are exposed, they only need to bow and apologize. The company will continue to develop without much interference.
Because a company is its territory, and it cannot be destroyed. What about the employees of the company? These people also need to work. So just bow and apologize. These cases are just the tip of the iceberg in Lesson 9. There are also foreign spies, internal struggles in parliament, conflicts between natives and refugees, and some high-intelligence crimes.
There are many cases because this is the autumn of troubled times. Technology is developing and human beings are regressing.
The placement of victims is not the task of Section 9. Their job is only to arrest people. As for whether the victims will be used by other companies, it has nothing to do with them.
But arresting people is useless, because the current soil will make more and more criminals.
"It is precisely because there are more criminals that special mobile units like Section 9 have been established. Just like if there are monsters, scientific special search teams are needed. If there is no demand, there is no need to establish a small team." Dulan felt that chaos was better.
It just needs chaos to be lively.
Togusa looked at Duran's smiling face and wondered whether the other party really had no sympathy? Didn't he have empathy? He couldn't help but ask: "What are you laughing at?"
"Am I smiling?"
"You are obviously laughing, a kind of mockery that seems to be there but not at all." Togusa said.
"Although you haven't installed electronic eyes, your observation ability is pretty good. Well, I am indeed laughing. The Nine Laughter Lessons are doing useless work. No matter how many cases are solved, it will not change any problems. Let's talk about the security issues of refugees, whether they are refugees or not.
Crime is still a crime against refugees. As long as the conflict between refugees and islanders exists, crime will not stop. In this era, law-breakers can do whatever they want, and law-abiding people are restricted everywhere," Duran said.
"..." Togusa really couldn't stand Dulan. This guy always said depressing words and always denied other people's efforts. He couldn't help but said: "Has anyone ever told you that your words are not pleasing to the eye?"
"
"I have said that some people say that I am just trying to make a point, and many people don't like me. But I think the reason why they don't like me is because I like to tell the truth. The truth always hurts people, and is unacceptable and unacceptable to everyone.
Face it." Duran said.
"Don't make it sound like you are the only smart person. You say that the work of Section 9 is meaningless. Instead, tell us what to do in the face of ever-changing criminal behavior and the ever-expanding public security problems."
Togusa couldn't help but said: "You also have a family, don't you want to protect your family and children? Don't you want them to live a good life?"
In fact, Togusa also knew that his efforts were of little use, but he had to receive a salary because he still had a family and children. He did not want his children to grow up in chaos, so he had to work hard to maintain peace.
"This is just trying to stop the boil. If you don't let the refugees integrate, or drive them away, public security will only get worse. Even if you can prevent crimes again and again, your wife and daughter are still living in danger. You
After cracking down on this crime, there will be next time, and next time... there will be countless crimes, and your wife and daughter will never have peace. So the best thing is to solve the problem itself, and crime is just a manifestation of the problem."
"It's impossible to drive away the refugees. These are all decided by the people above. They need refugees as political achievements. Even though many people oppose it, refugees continue to come in." Togusa said disappointedly.
War is going on, between countries and companies, and between companies. The war has caused many people to be displaced and become refugees.
In order to enhance its international presence, the island country has also absorbed a lot of refugees. As a result, many conflicts have occurred, some refugees have become criminals, and there are also crimes against refugees. The refugees alone have made public security a lot worse.
Togusa also knew that even if Nine Lessons stayed awake, criminal activities would still continue, and his family might be killed. Even if he was a law enforcement officer, he could not ensure the safety of his family. But how could he solve the refugee problem? It was simply impossible.
solve.
And it’s not just refugees, there are also black-hearted companies, cunning politicians, dangerous lunatics, and rampant machines...
These people threaten the safety of innocent people at all times, and there is no way to fundamentally solve it.
