Xie Xuan and Xie Ji didn't spend too much time reminiscing about the past, mainly because Xie Xuan didn't remember anything and there was nothing to reminisce about.
To Xie Xuan, Xie Ji was just a rich man who looked like her and claimed to be her brother.
If we add a few more modifiers, he is a rich man who is about to go bankrupt but is a nice person.
As for the relationship between Chongming and Xie Ji, there is even less to say.
The three people walked into Xie Ji's office, and Xie Xuan couldn't help but look around.
As far as she could remember in her two lifetimes, this was the first time she had walked into the CEO's office of such a large group company.
However, Xie Ji's office was a little different from what Xie Xuan had imagined. Like the outside, it had a futuristic minimalist style. Even the desk, office chair, sofa and coffee table in the reception area were in a minimalist style with gray and white colors.
Xie Ji asked them to sit on the sofa and brought Xie Xuan a bottle of drinking water.
Xie Xuan hadn't eaten for a long time. She took the water, said "thank you", unscrewed the bottle and took a sip.
It tasted like ordinary water. Luckily, she hadn't turned into a vampire and couldn't eat normal food.
Xie Ji sat down on the single sofa next to them and began his conversation with, "You may already know that the situation inside the wall has changed a lot since you contacted me four days ago."
Xie Xuan nodded. "If you mean that the Ecological Organization is coming to discuss the future of humanity with the top leaders of Districts 6, 67, and 8, and that Si Xun is about to be tried and that Noah Technology is being accused by the Ecological Organization, then I've seen the news."
Xie Ji smiled bitterly, "The most important things right now are probably these three things."
As for the less important one, it should be Xie Yuheng who is still unconscious.
Thinking about this, Xie Xuan asked Xie Ji, "How is Xie Yuheng doing now?"
"Nothing has improved. Noah Technology's research and development focus in recent years has been on artificial intelligence and bionics. Research and treatment options for mental infections and infectious diseases are practically monopolized by the Ecological Bureau."
Xie Ji paused and said, "Now the Ecological Bureau is leaning towards the Ecological Organization, and Noah Technology is at odds with the Ecological Organization. Even if the Ecological Bureau offered to treat Xie Yuheng at this time, I wouldn't dare to hand him over without worry."
"So are we just going to leave him alone?" Xie Xuan frowned. "Although I don't know much about this, the longer we delay, the lower the chance of him waking up, right? If all else fails, I'll kidnap a few researchers from the Ecological Bureau."
Chongming glanced at Xie Xuan, "Xie Yuheng and I both uploaded the backup."
Xie Xuan was stunned. "But isn't he an ordinary human?"
Xie Ji said, "He is indeed just an ordinary human, but he regularly uploads his consciousness to a local area network that is not open to the public. In simple terms, he creates clones of his own consciousness."
Xie Xuan felt that this matter was unreliable no matter how she listened to it. "Can the consciousness clone still be considered as his real self?"
"We've conducted many experiments before, and 89% of consciousnesses will automatically disappear within 24 hours of being awakened. 9% of consciousnesses will evolve into independent personalities, completely different from the uploaded consciousness. Only 2% of consciousnesses maintain their original personality and memories. However, these consciousnesses cannot survive for long in machines or networks. A month is the maximum survival limit for these consciousnesses."
Xie Ji spoke in detail, while Chongming summarized it simply and crudely: "This is a very imperfect technology. We can't awaken Xie Yuheng's consciousness now unless it's absolutely necessary."
Xie Ji nodded. "Uploading a consciousness is a very energy-consuming and time-consuming task. Xie Yuheng only has seven consciousnesses so far, and the earliest one was uploaded three years ago. We can't gamble on a 2% probability."
"In other words, is it more realistic to kidnap two researchers?" Xie Xuan asked.
Chongming sighed.
Xie Ji also sighed, "That's not the case. In fact, I've asked several experts in this field to look at Xie Yuheng's condition, and they all concluded that the probability of Xie Yuheng waking up is less than one percent."
Generally speaking, if severe mental infection caused by A-level areas is treated in the early stages of infection, the probability of awakening is more than 10%.
Xie Xuan frowned, "How could that be? Didn't you say he just attended a meeting via holographic projection?"
Xie Ji nodded gravely, "That's the problem. The Ecological Organization is more terrifying than we imagined. We have no idea what Xie Yuheng saw and encountered in the Ecological Organization. Even Bai Ze's information about this has been completely erased."
Xie Xuan finally understood. After all, the answer was simple. "Xie Yuheng won't wake up again, right? And we can't awaken his consciousness in the short term. By the time the technology matures, we might all be dead, right?"
Xie Ji and Chongming's expressions were calm, almost indifferent.
"Yes. He is as good as dead to us." Xie Ji said.
Xie Xuan suddenly felt an unspeakable pain.
It seemed as if she had been repeating the process of loss ever since she woke up in this world.
Strangers on the street, familiar teammates, friends and relatives.
She always thought that she didn't have much sense of belonging to this world, but when faced with separation, her grief was always so strong and real.
Xie Xuan was silent for a few seconds before taking a deep breath and looking up. "Who killed Xie Yuheng?"
Xie Ji avoided Xie Xuan's gaze and said, "Sorry... I don't know."
"At present, it is judged that he is a very powerful psychic, whose psychic ability is or includes the ability to attack with the mind," Chongming said. "Bai Ze analyzed Xie Yuheng's current brain waves, and they show a very strange pattern. If this psychic attacks again next time, I should be able to identify him by the victim's symptoms."
The reason why people who are severely mentally infected cannot wake up is that they will continue to replay the illusions implanted in them by the bacteria that infected them throughout their lives.
And these are often painful circumstances.
This doesn't even have to do with the willpower of the person experiencing the hallucination, because persistent mental infection will cause their brain structure to die, and they will fundamentally lose the possibility of waking up.
Xie Xuan felt that if she continued with this topic, she might not be able to resist and directly blow up the branch of the ecological organization in District 6.
She took a deep breath and said, "I will definitely kill him. So let's get back to the topic we started with. Si Xun's case will be heard tomorrow. What should we do?"
