Brainoid

It is actually very simple for Qi Min to find the brain-like body user named "Hui Qianshi".

She connected to the brain-like body as a constructor. After her consciousness entered the virtual world, she appeared in the scientific research department of the brain-like body company as she did when she was twenty-eight years old.

In reality, the scientific research department of Brainoid Company is divided into two parts, namely the Beijing branch and the St. Petersburg branch. However, in Brainoid, there is no need to consider geographical location, so the two parts are integrated into one. The virtual building of the Scientific Research Department is a rare object among brainoids that obviously violates the laws of physics, and the space where it is located also contains paradoxes.

Looking up from the Beijing area, the building of the Brainoid Research Department floats high in the sky, looking like a B2 stealth bomber. However, looking up from the St. Petersburg district, or any other district, the same view can be seen. This also means that the mapping relationship between the near-earth area and high altitude in the brain-like virtual world is not unique. Points with the same coordinates on the ground in each area correspond to the same high altitude, and the Scientific Research Department is the only building in the high altitude.

Of course, you can only see the Scientific Research Department at high altitude from the ground, and there is no way to actually get here. This design is not only for management considerations, but also to protect the safety of ordinary players. There are a large number of constructors active in the scientific research department building of the Brainoid Company who have the authority to modify the scenes of the Brainoid. Their job is to "imagine" scenes and objects in the virtual world out of thin air. This makes the area where the Scientific Research Department building is located very unstable and potentially dangerous. Especially due to the randomness and uncontrollability of consciousness itself, others or oneself may be accidentally modified if you are not careful - this is why Qi Min strongly discourages her daughter Mimi from entering a brain-like body.

Since the brain-like body originally came from Mimi's imagination, she has full authority over the brain-like body. Theoretically, as long as she knows the method, she can see any corner of the brainoid body, view the files and history of any person in it, and modify the data of any person, any object, or any scene. To be more precise, the brain-like virtual world itself is an expansion of a conscious scene when Mimi was three years old. It was created as an ownerless data connection, but when the little girl first connected it, it was occupied and assimilated by her consciousness. When other people enter the brainoid body, it is equivalent to entering Mimi's external brain. Therefore, when Mimi returns to the brain-like body, her own thinking activities have the highest priority, which is quite dangerous for other people in the brain-like body.

The next highest priority is the constructor of Brainoid Company. And when the constructor boarded the brain-like body, it was equivalent to the whole person's consciousness completely entering the brain-like body, so the resolution of thinking activities was not limited by frequency.

But because everyone's brain is somewhat different, the local structure of the neuron-like cells in the brain and the architects that go into them must be different. Therefore, the longer the constructor's consciousness stays in the brain-like body, the greater the degree of assimilation by the brain-like body, and the more serious the sequelae caused by not adapting to the original brain structure after coming out (this is why Mimi entered the brain-like body for the first time There will be no sequelae after coming out of the body - the brainoid body itself is assimilated by her, and what she gets after reverse assimilation is still herself). However, this time Qi Min entered the scientific research department area in his own image, just to check the files of Eqianshi 2184, and would not stay for a long time.

In fact, viewing files does not need to be in the area of ​​the Scientific Research Department building - obviously, the physics of the brain-like virtual world itself is fictitious, and whether it is in a specific area has no impact on retrieving data. However, because the last time Qi Min exited the brain-like body as a constructor, he was in the scientific research department, so he will still be in the same place when he logs in as a constructor again.

She brought up the search interface and checked the profile of the player whose ID number was 2184 and whose name was "Hue Qianshi". It showed that she was currently online and was stationary in an alley somewhere southeast of the outer circle of the old city.

After remembering the location clearly, Qi Min quit his status as a constructor and appeared on the top of a tall building in the inner circle of the old city in the image of an autumn harvest.

——

Qiu Shu put down the rope and came down from the roof.

In fact, many players simply don’t dare to do this operation at all. Since the buildings in the old city were conceived by a three-year-old girl, their surfaces are very smooth and there are no footholds. There is only a fence built on top of the building. To climb to the top of the building, you need to first throw the hook of the rope up to hold the fence, and then rely on the motor to drive it up. The same goes for coming down.

It's just that for example, experienced players of Autumn Harvest don't need a motor when going downstairs. Instead, they directly use their feet on the wall and an elastic rope to slide down section by section. This skill was something she practiced during military training when she was a child.

After descending to the ground, Qiu Shuo loosened the hook and put away the rope, and rushed to the location where Echiyo was found.

In the dimly lit alley, Qiu Shuang saw a blond woman wearing a gray initial suit lying in the corner, seemingly asleep.

This is weird because not many people sleep in brainoids. In fact, sleeping in a brain-like body is no different from sleeping in reality, but people will hardly feel physiological fatigue in a brain-like body. Even if they can feel tired, it is because they receive overflow signals from the body in the real world when their consciousness oscillates.

The brain-like body company has to charge timely fees for every ordinary player who goes online. Although the cost of simply going online is actually not high, most people will not spend money sleeping in a brain-like body.

But since the person he was looking for was sleeping, Qiu Shuang was waiting nearby. The density of zombies in the outer circle is low, so you don't have to worry about being bitten and seriously injured by the zombies that gather while you sleep.

While waiting, Qi Min entered the identity of the constructor again, jumped back to the scientific research department area, and checked Jifusheng 3096. After discovering that Kifusheng was not online, she gave up the idea of ​​informing Echiyo to come over and watch it together before she woke up.

Returning to her identity as Autumn Harvest, she saw Echiyo turning over and looking like she was indeed fast asleep.

Not wanting to waste any more time, Qiu Shuo knelt down and patted the blonde woman on the shoulder. Echishi sat up immediately, but what came out was a somewhat hoarse young male voice: "What? What's wrong?"

"Hey..." Qiu Shou couldn't help but frown, stood up and took a step back, "Eqianshi, right?"

"Yes, yes." Echiyo looks like a petite woman with blond hair, but her voice is obviously that of a man, "What's wrong? Oh... your name is Qiu Shuo... Qiu Shuo is still a celebrity in the old city..."

Judging from his uncertain tone, it seemed that he was not familiar with the player ecology of the old city. However, he is currently ranked first in the standings. A player who is not familiar with the old city has brushed up points and reached the first place. This is a bit strange no matter how you think about it.

"It's not particularly famous." Qiu Shuang folded his arms and said, "You are now at the top of the list."

"Do you have anything to do with me?" Eqianshi asked.

"Well, I want to see the goods." Qiu Shuang tentatively said.

Echiyo did not answer directly, but took out a business card from the pocket of his sportswear jacket, but did not hand it to Qiu Shuo immediately. Instead, he said: "I have to check your real address first."

Qiu Shou didn't expect it to be like this, so he narrowed his eyes and asked, "Why?"

Echiyo didn't have any special expression, she just stated: "This is the rule."

"Then how do you verify whether my real-life address is true?" Qiu Shuo asked.

"I will find a way to verify it at home." Eqianshi just said.

From this point of view, it is probably true that personal information is sold on the black market, but we don’t know what proportion this personal information can cover. In fact, before the advent of the era of brain-computer interaction, the personal information of most people has been sold by BAT and mobile communication companies. The people in the black market of brain-like bodies may be the original team of outsourcing companies that bought user information. . But it's really scary that they still have a way to update it.

"Forget it, I think you probably don't have what I want." Qiu Shu said deliberately.

"Well, see you later." Eqianshi nodded.

However, Qiu Shuang then asked: "Eqianshi, you just started working on the old city project not long ago, right?"

Although he speaks Mandarin with a northern accent, he is brushing up points in the old city without knowing about the autumn harvest. It is likely that he has just been hired by a black market merchant to brush up points and has not communicated extensively with local resident players.

Echiyo raised her head slightly and looked at the autumn harvest with her beautiful sky-blue eyes. He looked like he had spent a lot of money to create his image, but he was dressed like a poor man and didn't even have a flower rope to tie his hair.

"Well, I just returned to Beijing last week." Eqianshi replied.
