Most Wanted [Interstellar]

Chapter 95

After the disaster, the capital opened the gates of all the canals, and many heavy excavating equipment were transported by water to the accident site.After some people were the first to throw red dye into the river to protest the terrorist attack, others followed suit, and now a bird's-eye view of the planet is like looking at an animal full of blood vessels.

Although there are no particularly close relatives and friends in modern society, everyone is still angry. In our memory, human beings have never been so disturbed. Today's experience is like returning to ancient times, and human beings have become some kind of predators. prey, and this predator is still their own kind.

"Chairman, there is a gang ahead, and the road is blocked by gangsters." The driver said to Grotius.

"Don't worry, take a walk around, Mr. Lott can probably foresee this situation, and he will forgive us for being late."

Grotius was just saying this casually. In fact, he only met that Lott once, and that was at the reception celebrating the launch of Owen-Misterioso not long ago.Although Planck made a special trip to introduce them to each other at that time, he could feel Planck's contempt for him.Planck was such an odd man, well-mannered, courteous and unassuming, yet inadvertently exuding a contempt for those far less capable than himself.He also revealed it to Grotius, and that feeling was the same as the way he looked at Lott that day.

In all these years of getting along with him, if there are any exceptions, Irwin and Annie are probably the only ones, so Grotius already knew that these two people would be very special to Planck.

This is probably why the two of them have stepped on the bottom line so many times and are still alive.

Thinking of this, he really sympathized with Lott.

"The Association of Colleges has arrived, Lord Chancellor."

"Okay, thank you, stop on the ground, don't be photographed by the media." Grotius told his driver.

Although the public has not pointed their finger at the federation, the federation is not clean either. The suicide incident attracted a lot of policemen, and the hall was very lively.As soon as he entered, he saw Prosecutor Angela standing outside. He had a higher position than Angela, so the other party put down what he was doing and came over to say hello to him.

"Are you here to investigate suicide?" Grotius greeted her.

"Where, where, just cooperate with the police and give them some suggestions." Angela and Shire have completely different personalities. She has never left a strong impression. "From the scene, the motive for suicide is obvious. I don't think the case will be filed in the end, how about you? Justice? It's really rare for a judge to come to the crime scene."

"It's as rare as suicide," Grotius teased her. "Especially in an institution like the Federation with generous benefits, I haven't heard of anyone committing suicide in recent decades."

Angela did not refute him: "Yes, this is the first case in the past 50 years. You must know that there are several million researchers in the Federation."

"So?" Grotius looked at her with a smile, "If your colleague Charles Fernand came to do it, what would he say?"

"How would I know what he's going to say." Angela spoke impeccably. "In short, the motive for suicide is obvious, and the scene is clean. The police found no evidence of murder. I can only say, it's a pity."

"You are such a kind prosecutor!" Grotius sighed, "Will we have a chance to cooperate in the future?"

Angela knew that he was alluding to the Erwin incident, and she pretended to be very enthusiastic and leaned closer to his ear: "Who knows? After all, this is not something that our prosecutor's office can unilaterally determine."

"..."

"Also, did you have an appointment with someone?" Angela pointed behind him, "That is Mr. Lotter's assistant, he is the acting vice president, do you think he is looking for you?"

"Thank you!" Grotius was not angry, he looked back at the anxious assistant, "I believe we will cooperate, 'Miss I can't tell you'."

Angra winked at him: "Thank you for the nickname you gave me. You are a scholar, and I look forward to your advice in court."

The fruitless conversation between them finally came to an end. Grotius, who hadn't contacted the Capital Prosecutor's Office for nearly ten years, thought that all these new guys were quite interesting, didn't Angela?See you later in court.

Seeing that the two officers had finally concluded their conversation, Lott's assistant stepped in to remind the justice that he had a long-overdue appointment.

"To his office?" Grotius asked.

"Uh...it's a laboratory."

Probably because he was late for too long, Lotter entertained the judge in the laboratory.

"Meet you again, Justice Grotius." Lott greeted him affectionately.

"Sorry, I'm late. There are so many people here. The gate of the government is full of people." Grotius' tone seemed to be talking about other people's affairs, "If the government can't bear the pressure, I think someone will The one who broke the news of Alvin's arrest."

"Yeah, yeah," Lot said in a state of desperation, "President Planck has already explained to me, and I will take you to see him right away."

This is true, although everyone has no evidence, but only Alvin can commit such a level of crime, right?Need to pay for someone else's mistakes?Of course not, if the public continues to exert pressure, there will be 'insiders' who will reveal the truth, right?If Alvin's existence was exposed, what would he say to the public?That was why Planck was in such a hurry to have his court friend come to him to see the hot prisoner.

Lotter thinks Planck thought so.

Of course, Planck really thought so.

But Grotius had more than that in mind.

He is a person who is not ready to act rashly until he finds out the truth of the matter, so before that, he has other things to be sure.

"The researcher's suicide has also been reported by the media." Grotius was not in a hurry to see Erwin, he seemed to be interested in other things, "Why didn't you block it?"

"The researcher put the news on the Internet before committing suicide." Lott said helplessly.

Grotius had already seen the video of the suicide in advance. The researcher seemed to be in a daze for a while after talking on the phone, and then the derailment accident happened. Later, when the Owen chip lost control, his reaction was not special. Seriously, it took only 5 minutes from falling to the ground with convulsions to getting up. After that, he seemed to realize something suddenly, went straight to the computer and wrote something, walked to the window and jumped upstairs after finishing writing go down.

"It's really impossible, you tried your best." Grotius patted him on the shoulder, and then he felt Lott's emotions relaxed, "I will handle this matter properly, not to mention the people's concern for the federation. The impact has been good, don't worry too much."

"Yeah, yeah." Lot motioned him and himself to see Alvin.

"Oh? What research are you doing?" Grotius was unmoved, he looked into the laboratory curiously.

"Is this?" Out of politeness, Lott had no choice but to draw him closer, "After all, Owen's chip was out of control. Although it was only a few minutes, it was a major accident that had never happened before. We replayed the mistake that day. We need to verify once again how much the loss of control of the chip affects human beings."

There are six 'volunteers' of different genders in the middle of the experiment area, and the code is being replayed on them now. Sure enough, people of different genders are affected to different degrees.

"Alpha is most affected, followed by beta, and finally omega."

The code was re-recorded again. Alpha really fell to the ground first and began to convulse. After the other people reacted, Alpha's symptoms were basically still there. Except for convulsions, their limbs were no longer under the control of consciousness, and they began to crawl on the ground indiscriminately. up.

"It's weird, I thought we were the strongest." Grotius laughed at himself. "I wasn't so scary when I lost control that night. I just broke a glass."

"We magnified the effect of the code." Lott said, "Probably because the material of the chip came from an omega. In this accident, we found that alpha is more dependent on the chip than other genders. This may be the reason for this. cause of this phenomenon.”

"Where did the people who participated in the experiment come from?"

"It's all laboratory staff who voluntarily participated."

"You scientific researchers are really great." Grotius never hesitated to praise, "Won't it cause harm to the body?"

"No, the chip can only control the body to the greatest extent, but it will not control human consciousness, nor will it cause any harm to consciousness. This kind of experiment was done when the Owen chip was launched 50 years ago. It is not a machine. It's biological, and consciously we're isolated, so the Owen chip is absolutely safe."

"Oh..." Grotius said modestly, "I'm a layman, let me understand, do you mean that no matter what happens to Owen's chip, my brain is still my brain, and no one will change it my thoughts?"

"Yes."

"This is not a new achievement, is it?"

"Of course not. Who would launch a product that poses a major safety hazard to humans? These experiments were done 50 years ago, and we just re-tested this code alone."

"You can't control your mind, but can you control your body?" Grotius was like a curious student.

"Yes," Lott selected several previous experimental pictures for him. "After the convulsion occurs, although the consciousness is not damaged, the body will be temporarily out of control of the brain, and the chip can execute some behavioral commands." Lott Patiently explain to him.

"It's terrible," Grotius said to him with a smile, "Technology has reached this level, think about it, writing a piece of code to Owen's chip can make a person's body controlled by the chip, obviously he His consciousness is clear, but he was instructed to go to the computer, write a bunch of meaningless words, just to announce his death, and then... he just... watched his body fall from the upstairs Jumping down...it's as exciting as a science fiction novel, don't you think it's Mr. Lotter?"

"Huh?" Lott seemed to have been shocked suddenly, "You...you? What did you say?"

"I'm just talking about a hypothesis." Grotius put his arms around the other person's shoulders. "After all, I'm a layman. When I hear some technical terms, I can't help but think wildly."

Lot wanted to laugh with him, but his expression froze on his face.

"This is probably a judge's professional habit? After all, we have to judge the truth from the words of all parties. This kind of reasoning ability is essential. You won't laugh at me because of it?"

Grotius' expression was particularly sincere when he said this.

"Now, I think I can go to see Erwin. Professor Herman," he looked at the time, "Sorry, I seldom participate in specific cases now, and I'm too lazy to waste your time, really Excuse me," he lifted the briefcase from his feet, "then...let's go...please."
