Chapter 220 - Death and Conspiracy (23) (2/2)
Jin Shengping did not seem to be surprised by the question at all. “What if I deny it?”
“Actions speak louder than words!” Lu Jia’er said.
“Then what were the actions?” Jin Shengping asked.
“When you found out my identity, you were too calm.” Lu Jia’er pointed it out.
Jin Shengping laughed. “That is not enough to support your argument!”
“Yes, that wouldn’t be enough. However, there are too many causes for suspicion.” Lu Jia’er went on.
“Do tell!” Jin Shengping looked at her with a smile.
“First of all, it is about your inner voice. You leveraged signal isolation and showed me what you wanted me to hear and isolated what you didn’t want me to hear. When I first met you in China, I thought it was because a scientist like you probably had become immune to the unusual and your mind was settled as still water. However, during this visit to the States, I consistently had the feeling that something was off. The second point is a hypnosis. Yesterday, when I was chatting with you, I tried to hypnotize you and Professor Jin Xianglan but it did not work. At that moment, I found another missing piece to the theory I had, the coordinate provided by Ian had led us to your house. In the beginning, I failed to notice the correlation but now, I understand it. Also, Ace did not find any people suspicious in his investigation on the researchers studying the combination of AI and humans. But he had ignored someone important—you! I read the papers you published. You have always been interested in the development of AI and your son’s company is a leader in the field of Artificial Intelligence!”
After Lu Jia’er finished her piece, Jin Shengping smiled. “You are smart indeed!”
“No, I am not smart enough.” Lu Jia’er did not agree with his comment on her.
Jin Shengping cut her off. “Don’t depreciate yourself.”
Lu Jia’er looked at him. “So, can I assume that I am your greatest work?”
“For now, yes.” Jin Shengping gave an honest reply.
Lu Jia’er asked another question. “Then what about Ace?”
