The campus of the National Science and Technology University.
After completing the enrollment procedures, Wang Peng had just put his luggage in the dormitory when the instructor called.
"Someone is looking for you."
"Looking for me?" Looking at the instructor in the holographic interface, Wang Peng asked casually, "Who is it?"
"It's someone from the Security Bureau. Come to the administrative building."
"Okay, I'll be right there."
Although Wang Peng didn't know why the people from the Security Bureau suddenly found him, since it was official business, he still took it seriously and immediately went to the administrative building of the school.
When he came to the conference room on the second floor according to the address given by the instructor, he saw a strange man wearing a gray coat standing in front of the conference table.
While Wang Peng was looking at him, he was also looking at Wang Peng.
"You are?"
"Shi Jin." The man in the gray coat reached out his right hand and handed out his holographic business card. "You can call me Mr. Shi, or by my name."
Pan-Asian Cooperation Security Bureau, Agent.
Except for the name and basic work unit, there was no other information written on the business card.
Wang Peng put the holographic card in his watch and looked at him.
"What's the matter?"
"When we checked the relevant files about the Forest of The Universe Foundation, we found that your name appeared on it."
Wang Peng nodded and spoke.
"I was the one who compiled the earliest file."
"As we know," Shi Jin said with a serious expression while looking at Wang Peng, "For the stability of the community of human destiny led by China, we hope you can contribute your strength!"
"But I probably can't help you." Wang Peng frowned and said, "My knowledge and skills are completely out of touch with the times. If the foundation is still developing over the past century, the information I have is probably outdated. It might even mislead your work."
Shi Jin: "It is precisely because the foundation has been developing for a century that it has infiltrated our society to a very dangerous degree, so we need your power even more."
"Sorry, you should find someone else." Wang Peng shook his head and said, "After completing my preparatory course, I will reconsider your invitation … If you still need me at that time, I will not be stingy to contribute my strength."
"In fact … I'm afraid the difficulties we are facing are more severe than you can imagine."
With an embarrassed expression on his face, Shi Jin continued in a difficult tone, "At first, our task force was only set up to investigate the mastermind behind the assassination of Academician Lu. We didn't expect to drag so much mud out of this mess. Whether it's enduring or getting resources from the Security Bureau, it's quite limited. "
"Based on the information we currently have, we can infer that this foundation has infiltrated our society to a dangerous level. At the same time, they may have a terrible virus in their hands. This virus can change the underlying logic of the robot's memory, making civilian robots that are originally impossible to be criminal tools become their crime tools.
"Nowadays, robots have become an inseparable part of our society. This is a fait accompli formed over the past half a century. If there is a virus that turns an absolutely safe tool into an unstable bomb, it will not only destabilize our economic prosperity, but also our society! "
Hearing what Shi Jin said, Wang Peng's face gradually changed.
As a dormant from the 21st century, he could not fully feel the irreplaceable role of robots in modern society, but they were actually targeting Academician Lu. This was no small matter.
And this was the first time he had heard that Academician Lu had been assassinated.
"Assassinated … Academician Lu? What happened? Why … Why are they targeting him? "
How come I haven't heard of it from Lu Zhou at all?!
Shi Jin shook his head and spoke.
"We are also quite confused about this. However, according to the informant, the foundation's judgment is that his existence may affect one of their plans."
Wang Peng took a deep breath and spoke calmly.
"In fact, if you think about it carefully, it makes sense that they would target Academician Lu."
Shi Jin looked at him, waiting for him to continue.
After a pause, Wang Peng continued.
"… About a century ago, in the ILHCRC experiment on the verification of extra dimensions, a physics professor named Galette Miro once proposed the theory of universe animism, which is probably the theoretical cornerstone of The Spirit of The Universe Foundation."
"Galette Miro?" Shi Jin raised his eyebrows slightly and said in an unexpected tone, "This is an unfamiliar name. I haven't seen it in the file."
"It is normal that it did not appear in the file. After all, after our investigation, his identity was confirmed to be just an ordinary physicist. As for the theory of animism in the universe, it's just a weird academic paper. "
Shi Jin: "But how did you determine that The Spirit of The Universe Foundation has nothing to do with Professor Galette Miro?"
"Because that person is dead." Wang Peng continued while looking at Shi Jin, "Just after Lu Zhou's report on the theory of extra dimensions, he made some modifications to his paper and uploaded it to his personal blog. Then, he committed suicide in his dormitory."
"This sounds like an urban legend … A dead physicist and his paper became the starting point of a new era of religion? But Professor Galette Miro, I have never heard of his name at all. "
"It is impossible for history to remember everyone's name, especially when most people agree with another point of view."
Shi Jin: "That seems to be the case."
"Through limited intelligence, we can only make such an inference. If The Spirit of The Universe Foundation is under the banner of Professor Galette Miro, then the identity of Professor Galette Miro is undoubtedly their prophet. As the person who sent their prophet to hell, it is understandable that they would have a natural hostility to Academician Lu. "
"This is very valuable information. It seems that my trip was not in vain." Shi Jin seriously wrote down the information and reached out his right hand. "Although it is a pity that we failed to persuade you to join us, we will remember your help."
"Who said I don't plan to join you?"
Shi Jin was slightly stunned when he saw Wang Peng suddenly speaking.
"But didn't you just say …"
"Although an old man advised me to leave the future to the future …"
After a pause, Wang Peng continued.
"But after thinking about it carefully, I still can't feel at ease leaving this matter to you and staying out of it."
Hearing this, the surprise on Shi Jin's face instantly turned into joy, and he said with a laugh.
He laughed and said, "Welcome!
"We will write an employment application for you. Your answer will be transferred into the Security Bureau agent database and will be kept there until you leave and start a new life."
Although he didn't know why his attitude changed 180 degrees, for the task force that was short of manpower, this was definitely something worth celebrating.
"This kind of thing probably won't happen." Wang Peng said self-deprecatingly, "A nosy person like me will probably never be able to get rid of my old job."
To be honest, sometimes he envied his old friend Li Gaoliang.
Although Li Gaoliang was a bit careless, it was precisely because of this that he could do well in any era.
"Haha, there's nothing wrong with this. I like my current job." Shi Jin smiled and reached out his right hand. He said in a sincere tone, "From now on, you are the special operations consultant of our task force!"
