Chapter 518: Pitmans Secret (1/2)
The first snow after the winter has finally arrived.
The fluttering snow falls from the lead-gray sky and gently covers every inch of Cecil City. All the bell towers, roofs, walls, and sentry towers are covered in a short period of time. White, in this boundless and gentle snow, the boundaries between heaven and earth, the boundaries between the city and the wilderness, the boundaries of houses and streets, all boundaries are blurred.
Tyre cautiously squirmed in front of the porch. She poked her long tail out of the porch and poked the thicker snow under the porch with the tip of her tail. Then a burst of visible shock followed. The tip of her tail spread all over the body - Miss Kraken slammed hard and took the tail back straight into a group: "Ice is dead! I don't go out in this ghost weather!"
However, Rebecca stood in the middle of the courtyard, and turned back to Tyre to make a strong move: "It’s rare to take a vacation on Wednesday, you can try it! It’s fun to play snowball! I like snow when I was young!"
In Cecil, people have eight days of work a week, and every Saturday and Sunday are rest days. However, due to the recent progress of a large number of research projects, Rebecca has not taken a vacation for a long time. The first snow made her finally have a reason for the holiday, but also reminded her of the happy time when she was a child in the snow. Although she has grown up, although the world has been turned upside down, it is snowing, as always, people happy.
Tiel, who was born in the deep sea, couldn’t understand Rebecca’s source of happiness. This is the second winter she spent on land. It’s snowing, freezing, and the water is not active. There is no fun at all: "It’s not that the snowballs are thrown at each other and thrown away. You humans like to throw things away and throw them away when you throw stones. I can’t understand this love sign... and You have to fight the snow, at least wait for the snow to stop, so now this snow is enough..."
As the Miss Haiyue said, she worked harder to put the tail together and tried to retract the upper body back into the ball formed by the tail: "I am sleepy, I want to go back to sleep..."
However, her voice did not fall, and a cold little snow mass suddenly flew up and slammed into her head.
"Wow!!" Tyre’s balance was instantly broken, and the tail of the disk almost slid toward the back. “I said no to play!”
"Not me!" Rebecca also saw the snow mass on Tyre's face, and quickly put his hand on it. "The snowball is from another direction..."
Her voice did not fall, and suddenly a snowball flew out of the corner of the courtyard, and this time she slammed into her head.
"……amber!!"
Tyre finally screamed, and her scream reminded Rebecca, who was still in a circle. The two men looked up together and looked at the direction in which the snowball flew—where a snowball was condensing out of thin air. There are sneaky footprints on the snow...
In the still snow that was still flying, a small melee was unfolding in the courtyard of the Lord's House.
"Young is so good..."
After the floor-to-ceiling windows of the study, Gao Wen took back the sight of the courtyard below and sighed softly.
Pittman sat on a chair on the side of the desk. He took a sip of hot tea and raised his eyelids to look at Gao Wen: "Your body is only 37 years old - still quite young."
"Thirty-seven years old is already an age that is not suitable for **** in the yard and the younger generation," Gao Wen returned to the back of the desk, sat down in his large seat, and grabbed the tea cup in front of him. "Drink in the study." The tea is quite good."
Pittman smiled: "It's a pity that the old man who is in the middle of the room is sitting opposite you."
Gao Wen didn't answer, but slowly took a hot tea, then watched that Pitman seemed to be able to maintain the hippie smile face under any circumstances. After watching it for two seconds, he said: "I heard You solved the technical problem that Carmel encountered - is it called artificial nerve cable?"
“Yes, the product of the combination of druid technology and alchemy engineering can not be imagined by ordinary people.”
"The general druid can't think of that kind of thing," Gao Wen said quietly. "That is the technique of the sleeper. Strictly speaking, it is the depregated druids who created everything, and then passed to the sleepless." Then, the neural connection technology improved by the biochemical engineers of the sleeper."
Pittman’s expression finally had a hint of gloom, then he shook his head, with a helpless smile on his face: “I thought you didn’t know this – since you know, why not tell Carmel? Just to let me Say it?"
"No, I don't like to test or investigate my subordinates in this way. The situation is just an accident for me," Gao Wen said calmly. "The reason why I didn't tell Carmel is because of this. Technology is inhuman, and it has a huge hidden danger: implanting artificial neural cords can dramatically change the personality of the receptor, and even the risk of mental breakdown."
"...It's true, artificial nerves are a very uncontrollable thing," Pittman nodded. "It seems that you really know a lot about the secrets of the eternal sleeper and all things. I am very curious, you are in contact." After their knowledge, what do they think of them?"
“They have mastered highly advanced technologies in specific areas, and they seem to have a sense of mission. I even suspect that they think they are saving the world – this is from some of their big plans. But this can’t be Changing the facts of their sinfulness does not prove that their goals are correct.” Gao Wen put the teacup on the table and said it without hesitation. “If the direction is wrong, the more knowledge, the more reactionary, if the means is wrong, work hard. The more you sin."
Pittman’s eyes changed at that moment. Gao Wen couldn’t tell the specific reason and content of the change, but at this moment, he really felt Pittman’s disguised hippie smile and cynical appearance. Dissipated, a heavy and lonely temperament actually appeared on this little old man - but it was only a short moment.
