Return, questioning
"The anomalous energy source captured this time is indeed different from usual. It seems to have some vague self-awareness, although not much, but enough to allow it to perceive human emotions.
Even more surprising is that we discovered it wasn’t a completely natural evolution.”
A white-haired old professor said to the two people beside him.
Bai Yan's expression was serious: "Are you saying it's a form of artificial intelligence?"
The old professor nodded and shook his head: "To be more precise, it is an energy body formed by the combination of artificial intelligence and space-time particles.
We have named this energy body πai. The emergence of πai is incredible, and perhaps it will allow humans to further expand the boundaries of current technology. "
After Bai Yan chatted with the old professor for a few words, he and Jiang Yan, the head of Group 9, went to another laboratory.
Bai Yan immediately saw Bian Senlin standing in a daze beside the πai energy body device.
Because Bian Senlin has an inexplicable sensory connection with the energy body, he will act as a translator while cooperating with the researchers.
Bai Yan asked Jiang Yan: "How is he doing now?"
Jiang Yan shook his head: "Not very good."
Jiang Yan remembered that after the jump mission was completed, Bian Senlin begged them not to hurt the πai energy body when he handed it to them.
At first, Bian Senlin stood by with concern, but after making sure that they had not done anything harmful to the πai energy body, he felt relieved.
Since then, he has been in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking. Sometimes it would take him a long time to come back to his senses even when the researcher called him.
"He is very depressed and his reactions are very slow. In his current condition, I do not recommend that he participate in the next mission."
Bai Yan pondered for a moment and asked, "Isn't Su Qingzhu from the execution team cooperating with you on the affinity research? How's the progress?"
Jiang Yan said helplessly: "We still need time."
Jiang Yan understood Bai Yan's meaning. If Bian Senlin's condition made it impossible to carry out the mission, then Su Qingzhu, whose affinity had been greatly improved in the last mission, would undoubtedly be a better candidate.
But, again, it takes time.
Bai Yan shook her head: "This needs to be done as soon as possible! If necessary, Group Nine can be authorized to use the time anchor point."
Jiang Yan was stunned for a moment, then responded carefully: "I understand."
Bai Yan walked out of the Group 9 building, looked at the gloomy sky and sighed.
Lu Cen Cen offered a cup of hot tea at the right moment and consoled him, "Teacher, why are you so anxious? With the exception of the 2021 and 2024 nodes, all other abnormal nodes have been resolved smoothly, and the situation is moving in a positive direction. We'll just have to take our time with the rest."
Bai Yan sighed silently again: "I'm afraid that a storm is about to come. Time waits for no one."
Lu Cencen’s heart tightened when she heard Bai Yan’s words.
Lu Cencen quickly went over the latest information in his mind and thought: Could it be because Captain Wei brought back news about the 30-year-old Bian Senlin this time?
She also thought that the teacher who had always supported the "Key Plan" seemed more inclined to activate the alternative plan today.
Although it is normal not to place all your bets on one person, Lu Cencen was still keenly aware that this represented a different trend among the upper echelons.
Lu Cencen thought of the young man with a pure personality who always called her Sister Cencen, and couldn't help feeling a little worried about his fate.

"Dr. Bian is really capable!"
The head of the monitoring team, Xing Yun, appeared on Dr. Bian's path and blocked his way with a smile.
Dr. Bian looked at him calmly and asked, "What do you mean, Team Leader Xing?"
"Ah, it's not interesting at all." Xing Yun said nonchalantly:
"I heard that the communication equipment of the execution team has been upgraded and can achieve cross-time and space communication under strong interference. Did Dr. Bian put in a lot of effort?
I also heard that Dr. Bian participated in many research group equipment upgrades?"
Dr. Bian smiled politely. "Team Leader Xing is well-informed, but do you have any objections to my fulfilling my technical support duties?"
"I have no opinion." Xing Yun had a signature smile on his face, but his eyes were fixed on Dr. Bian.
"I'm simply impressed by Dr. Bian's ability to remove the miniature bomb and monitoring system from your wrist terminal in such a short period of time with his many contributions."
Dr. Bian looked back at Xing Yun without showing any weakness, his tone still calm. "This is all completely in accordance with the procedures. If Team Leader Xing has any objections to this, he can appeal to the higher authorities."
After saying that, Dr. Bian walked around Xing Yun and prepared to leave.
"Dr. Bian!"
Xing Yun restrained his smile and raised his voice.
Dr. Bian paused, "Team Leader Xing, do you have any further advice?"
Xing Yun turned and looked at him: "The execution team brought back the abnormal energy source that caused this space-time accident, and the research team found traces of artificial intelligence in it.
And Dr. Bian’s research direction...if I remember correctly, it is also in the field of intelligent emotions, right?
Don't you think this is too much of a coincidence, Dr. Bian?"
Dr. Bian turned his head to look at Xing Yun and said, "Thank you, Team Leader Xing, for telling me this news. However, I'm not the only one doing research in this area. You're worrying too much."
After saying this, Dr. Bian ignored Xing Yun's nagging and left.
Xing Yun looked at Dr. Bian's receding figure and sneered, "Oh, so slippery."
Dr. Bian's last sentence was that he didn't know the news before and it had nothing to do with him.
"Why do you always target him like a dog-skin plaster?" Chen Lie appeared out of nowhere.
"What the hell is this?" Xing Yun pointed at his nose and looked at his childhood friend in disbelief.
"There are so many suspicious things about him that I'm almost blinded! It would be fine if the monitoring team just let him go, but now all the monitoring measures have been almost completely removed!
You're asking me why I'm targeting him?"
Chen Lie yawned leisurely, feeling that this man had gone crazy.
“Hey, no…” Xing Yun put his hands in his pockets and looked at Chen Lie: “Isn’t your attitude right?
What? You went on this mission with that little sheep, right? Because we're comrades, you've become attached to him?"
"Screw your love for the house and its dog!" Chen Lie really wanted to pour out the water in this person's head: "I just think that boy is not bad."
After a long silence, Chen Lie suddenly said, "Do you still remember what happened in the two years after I learned about my parents' sacrifice?"
Xing Yun paused while lighting a cigarette, then put the cigarette in his mouth and said vaguely, "I remember, of course I don't remember.
We were all only sixteen or seventeen back then, right? You were a real troublemaker, a troublemaker that everyone avoided, until your uncle threw you into the military camp.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed. Things and people have changed. The former devil has become a ruthless warrior. As for myself back then... well, let's not talk about it.
Chen Lie recalled how his parents had passed away suddenly and how he had abandoned himself and done many things that angered God and the people.
However, the boy called "little lamb" by Xing Yun was able to complete his duties alone after learning about family changes and the death of loved ones.
Chen Lie shook his head and sighed, "That kid is much stronger than I was back then."

Dr. Bian came to the office of the director of the Institute of Intelligence and knocked on the door.
"Come in!"
The director of the Institute of Intelligence is Wang Zhixing. He is already in his sixties, but he is full of energy.
Dr. Bian came up to Professor Wang and asked, "Professor, are you looking for me?"
Professor Wang put down the information in his hand and looked at Dr. Bian for a while: "Xiao Bian, your teacher and I have been friends for many years.
I still remember how he looked when he recommended you to me. In the blink of an eye, several years have passed. Who would have thought that he is no longer here.
Dr. Bian replied solemnly, "Yes, I will always remember the kindness you and the teacher have shown me."
Professor Wang stood up and walked to Dr. Bian, looking him over. "In that case, I want to ask you something. Please answer me honestly."
"You ask, and I'll tell you everything I know."
Professor Wang's eyes were sharp. "Do you have anything to do with this Level 1 space-time incident?"
