When he returned home, Sun Yuanrang was the only one sitting on the sofa in the lobby of the base, looking intently at something on a tablet.

Bai Ling put the box aside and glanced at Sun Yuanrang's tablet. He was surprised to find that this mature and steady researcher was watching a soap opera...

Although people's habits do vary greatly, is your aesthetic changing a little too quickly?

Bai Ling remembered that Sun Yuanrang used to despise soap operas and science fiction, and he would watch his R-rated movies and dark power struggle dramas every day. His favorite ones were Peaky Blinders and La Casa de Papel.

Why are you suddenly watching soap operas now?

As he passed by Sun Yuanrang, Senior Sun looked up and said, "Ah, the prophet!"

Bai Ling tapped his screen: "Why are you looking at this?"

He was really a little curious.

After taking a look at the kissing scene on his screen, Sun Yuanrang said a little embarrassedly, "Oh, I can't help it. My girlfriend loves to watch it."

"It's just that I didn't pay much attention to her some time ago. Recently, she also found out some of the situation on our side. Although she didn't say anything, I still felt a little guilty. So I took some time out to accompany her and watch TV shows with her online."

Sun Yuanrang paused the conversation and said, "Isn't this drama a big hit recently? I thought why not catch up on the beginning of it first, so that I won't be clueless when I connect with her later."

Halfway through his speech, Sun Yuanrang seemed to have remembered something and quickly said, "Ah, of course the work has not been neglected! I am just going through the motions and taking a look. It will definitely not affect the subsequent research!"

Hearing this, Bai Ling couldn't help but chuckle.

Could it be that Sun Yuanrang thought he was a boss who only exploited his employees? How could that be possible? Since his subordinates wanted to do some leisure and entertainment work, Bai Ling certainly agreed with both hands. This would not only allow them to relax, but also maintain their family harmony and allow them to show higher enthusiasm at work.

Isn't this a good thing? Thinking of this, Bai Ling picked up a bottle of mineral water from the side, unscrewed the cap and said casually: "It's okay, as long as it doesn't affect you."

Hearing this, Sun Yuanrang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although his reasons were barely plausible, no matter how you look at it, this was equivalent to being caught by the boss while slacking off.

If it happened outside, it would at least be a verbal criticism.

And Sun Yuanrang didn’t actually explain it very clearly.

It was as if he himself was actually very interested in this thing, but he didn't tell Bailing about it.

If I tell Bai Ling, wouldn't the nature of watching TV series change from "completing a task" to "enjoying one's own enjoyment"?

As a qualified worker, I must choose some noble reasons instead of telling my boss that I am giving up! Thinking of this, Sun Yuanrang couldn't help but feel complacent.

Apart from anything else, this drama is really good. Even someone like me who has absolutely no interest in soap operas can experience the rare joy of watching a drama.

Really good! Just when he was about to replay it and watch the show in front of Bai Ling.

Bai Ling put down the mineral water bottle, stood behind him, glanced at the screen, pointed at the male protagonist on the screen and said, "This guy had a car accident in episode 45. He was thought to be dead, but he survived."

"But in episode 51, he got cancer and died," Bai Ling said casually. "In episode 55, the heroine followed the second male lead, but he also died later. In the end, the second male lead's girlfriend, the second female lead, went to comfort the first female lead in person, and the two found out that they had been secretly in love for a long time, and soon they got together."

"But in the end, the second female lead's family went bankrupt, so the two were forced to break up. The ending is that when the second female lead came back after years of hard work and wanted to find the female lead, she found out that more than ten years ago, when she just went bankrupt, the female lead committed suicide out of despair."

"Then the second female lead never got married until she found a little boy who looked not much different from the first female lead. The little boy was the child of the first female lead and the first male lead. Then the second part is about the series of developments in which the little boy fell in love with the second female lead."

Bai Ling patted Sun Yuanrang on the shoulder and said, "That's about the outline of the story. Remember it well. You can show off your skills when you talk to your girlfriend on the mic later."

Sun Yuanrang, who was originally happily planning to continue reading, was stunned.

He subconsciously glanced at what he was watching. The male and female protagonists were still sweet and loving, while the second male protagonist was heartbroken beside them. The second female protagonist was looking at the second male protagonist and the female protagonist with jealous eyes.

How come...it turned into a weird ethics drama after more than fifty episodes?

And I've only watched episode 11...

Looking at the male and female protagonists on the screen, smiling sweetly and showing love to each other.

Sun Yuanrang couldn't help but shed tears.

The current audience probably never dreamed that the screenwriters of the future would be so disgusting that they would turn this thing over and over, simmer it over high heat, and finally scoop out a spoonful of extremely disgusting feces...

Strictly speaking, Sun Yuanrang is now in as much pain as if he were eating a chocolate cake and the chef next to him told him that this thing is just shit covered with a layer of chocolate. However, he has to eat it anyway even though there are people watching him.

Glancing at the sad Sun Yuanrang, Bai Ling's lips curled up slightly.

He really doesn't care whether his subordinates are slacking off or not.

But he doesn't really like the kind of behavior that is done under the banner of seriousness but is actually done to satisfy personal ideas.

And...you're showing off your affection in front of me?

There is no such good thing.

Picking up the carton again, Bai Ling said casually, "That's right."

"I'm going to be alone for a while," Bai Ling said, "Don't come to me for anything."

"I have some things to take care of."

Hearing this, Sun Yuanrang also turned his eyes away from the trashy soap opera.

He did not ask Bai Ling the reason, but nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."

Facing Sun Yuanrang's attitude, Bai Ling nodded slightly.

"Then you continue to watch, I won't disturb you."

After saying this, Bai Ling pulled the thick cardboard box out of the hall and went to his small room alone.

In this base, Bering's room is in the middle.

The base was originally not small because it was built underground. Not long ago, Bai Ling went to the Countermeasures Bureau and obtained more exemptions and qualifications from them, and began to expand it.

Up to now, there are twenty living rooms for people to rest.

When I opened the door, the light hanging from the ceiling suddenly lit up.

The style of the whole room is pure white, with a white bed, a white lamp, and a white wardrobe. There is no other color, as pure as a bright glass bulb.

At the same time, the moment the door was closed, the TV next to it turned on automatically, and a "Welcome to Mingzhou" logo suddenly appeared on the screen lock.

Judging from the appearance alone, it is extremely formal and can be said to be a systematic and unified organization.

However, Bai Ling knew that this was actually the work of a certain artificial intelligence alien.

It really never gets boring. Even now, it still acts as the "terminal" of a salvation organization with great enthusiasm.

How should I put it, it’s really convenient.

With a smile, Bai Ling pulled out the chair next to the big bed and sat down, folding his hands on the desk.

Then he bent down and took out a tube of medicine from the carton, pinched it between two fingers and shook it gently.

The color of the potion is pure white, just like the color of the room at this moment, so flawless that it makes people feel hazy and dreamy.

This is the "tranquilizer" of the Countermeasures Bureau - its function is to temporarily increase concentration, allowing people to do something without being distracted and not being affected by the external environment.

This thing, in the eyes of the Countermeasures Bureau, is useful but not too useful. But to say it is completely useless is also wrong.

It can't improve people's IQ or reaction speed, it can only make people more focused on doing certain things. It's like putting a lock on the consciousness block, or locking you in a small dark room, and you can't get out until you finish the task.

So it is more suitable for repetitive work, such as screwing...

For innovative work, this may even have the opposite effect.

Because it really will turn you into a "machine"-like state, so focused that it will be difficult for you to even come up with new ideas.

If you really want to put it in a different way, this thing will turn people into "robots" that can think. They can only complete what they are programmed to do, but they know nothing beyond what they are programmed to do.

In addition, drinking too much of this stuff has side effects - if you drink too much, you will suffer from neurasthenia and your consciousness will be greatly reduced.

That’s why the Countermeasures Bureau has not put this thing into large-scale use.

After all, the effect is indeed useless, and the side effects are also obvious.

For talents with special skills, the intensity of consciousness, that is, the strength of the soul, is far more important than the strength of will.

Just like Qi Guang, if he wants to use Balder's power perfectly, he needs a strong enough consciousness.

However, this shortcoming is not a big deal for Bering.

Because his consciousness is really strong.

Besides, he really needs a "tranquilizer" now.

Looking at the pure white potion, Bai Ling's eyes flickered slightly.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally made up his mind and thrust the tranquilizer into his neck! Soon, the white liquid flowed into Bai Ling's body, flowing in his blood vessels like a new lubricant that replaced blood.

When the "tranquilizer" flowed upstream through his blood vessels and reached his brain, Bering closed his eyes and calmed his mind.

At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind.

"I'll look at my phone and write down what I need to pay attention to in the next ten minutes, and then write it down on the A4 paper in front of me."

This is the "program" that Bering will continue to implement after he is about to become a "machine"! Once such an idea takes root, Bering will only mechanically execute this program until this tube of tranquilizer completely loses its effect! Under such a program, Bering may be able to see the future of ten minutes ten minutes later! When Bering was conceiving the ability to predict, he had an idea - can he predict the future in the first ten minutes and see the future of the second ten minutes? For example, Bering could only see what would happen ten minutes later. But in the future of ten minutes, he tried to activate his ability again, and then based on the future, he saw a more distant future.

In other words, it is actually the superposition of predictive abilities.

This is not difficult to understand. After all, the ability to predict the future transcends time. "Ten minutes" is only the limitation of Bai Ling himself, not the limitation of this ability.

If you try to use your abilities at the end of the tenth minute, you may be able to see the future of the twentieth minute. This is probably the basic logic of ability stacking.

Bering had tried this before, and it was successful, but only for a short period of time.

This is because the activation of predictive ability requires "common sense" and "sufficiently reasonable".

It was just like the last time when Bai Ling was looking for a compatible "Night Hidden" potion for Luo Hongzhe and his group of people from Yunshang College. Why did Bai Ling specifically ask Wang Weizheng to come along and ask him if he was ready to "kill everyone"?

That is because only after saying these words can the precognition be activated correctly.

If it was Ding Yan instead of Wang Weizheng who followed Bai Ling at that time, then no matter how much Bai Ling talked, he would not have been able to see the future of those Yunshang College graduates being stabbed with a syringe by Ding Yan.

Because Ding Yan is not that kind of person, such "irrational" behavior will never happen, so it is impossible to predict the future.

But Wang Weizheng is different.

After saying that, Wang Weizheng was ready to find someone who was suitable for "Yeyin" even if it meant killing someone.

So even if Bai Ling didn't say it, just standing in front of that person, the future would present a scene of "Wang Weizheng inserting the needle without hesitation"!

This is both rationality and the primary condition for the activation of predictive ability.

If it is not rational, then it is impossible to see the future.

When Bering tried to use the superposition ability before, it was because Bering did not have a persistent idea or plan.

He would always interrupt the process of "recording what happened in ten minutes" because of various things and thoughts. It might be because he was lazy, because someone else asked him something, or because he forgot.

This is a very complicated process. If there is even a slight omission in the middle, it will be impossible to continue observing it. At most, we can only see the node before the break.

In short, each superposition he had tried before could only last for about an hour at most.

But this time, after taking the "tranquilizer", Bering was obviously different.

He dismissed his attendants in advance and refused to allow anyone to disturb him. At the same time, he allowed himself to concentrate and persevere. All external and internal factors that might affect him had completely disappeared.

Now, there was nothing in front of his stack.

Now, it’s time to see what the future will look like in an hour.

He would see the contents of the second ten minutes within the first ten minutes, and then the third ten minutes within the second ten minutes. If he recorded what he saw, he would be able to see the future thirty minutes later...

Thinking of this, Bai Ling opened his eyes.

A blue light flickered slightly in his eyes, flowing around his pupils.

Like a great river surrounding time itself.
