Soviet Union.

"Yuri, good morning."

The psychiatrist smiled at little Yuri.

"Good morning, Uncle Swan."

Yuri also smiled at the other party.

Swann breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.

It seems that my work is completed.

"Well...relax, little Yuri, I have some questions now that I want to..."

Swann looked into Yuri's eyes and unconsciously fell into a coma.

"Well, okay, as usual. Tell me what happened recently."

"Yes..." Swann's eyes were unfocused: "There are rumors that the KGB is investigating an organization called 'seele' recently, but this related information has been strictly blocked. In addition, Andropov is preparing to

Visiting China..."

Swann told Yuri everything about the recent major events.

"Well, okay, I am as usual now, everything is normal, but I lack family affection. You have to suggest to the superiors that I live with my father."

"Yes, Master."

Swann nodded mechanically.

"Okay, that's it."

As soon as little Yuri finished speaking, Swann's eyes regained their vitality.

He sighed and glanced at little Yuri.

What a lovely child this is! He should not be here, but should be like other children and need the protection of family affection.

Well, yes, what I should do now...

Swann immediately thought of what he should do.

Let the child live with his father.

His mother is missing now. If possible, this is a consolation...

…

Hive Labs.

After the five-sensory synesthesia experiment made no progress, the experiment on Catherine's ontology was given priority.

"It's too bad, I didn't even notice that there was something wrong with the corner of the table... Now I have lodged a protest with the manufacturer... Well, they promised to give us a set of the latest luxury series of furniture."

Elsa was talking to Catherine about what happened in the house at this time.

"Just replace it. It's only a few hundred thousand dollars anyway."

Catherine was indifferent to this.

"But next time, let's change the style of the house. Well... fantasy style, or science fiction style. Both are good."

"Well, let's try the sci-fi style first, and then we'll switch to the fantasy style... But, wouldn't it be better to build two houses? It would be a pity to have to change them."

Catherine touched her head: "That seems to be the case..."

"Well... let's just design two more houses. They can be used as secret bases or something..."

"Okay Kate. We can start now."

At this moment, Jenny walked in.

"What's that in your hand?"

Catherine noticed that Jenny was holding something like a black hose in her hand...well, actually it looked more like a hornworm hand.

"Hehe. This is a good thing..."

Jenny seemed very happy: "This thing will never affect our experiments. It can be in a dormant state..."

Jenny touched this indescribable thing, and then, this hornworm hand thing started to twist like a bug!

"Three in total, Kate, even the FECS system will not make you lonely..."

"Wait a minute, what do you mean you won't be lonely?!"

Catherine couldn't help but ask.

"Ah, it's nothing. Let's talk about the experimental process first... Well, the first step is to install the fecs system to achieve liquid breathing. At the same time, we will install a braces retainer in your mouth to seal your mouth. But other than that

In addition, the clothing does not have any mechanical equipment, and we will also fill the gaps with t-x materials.”

Jenny changed the subject.

"..."

Catherine probably already knew what the other party was going to prepare.

She originally wanted to refuse sternly.

However, just when she was about to say the words, Catherine hesitated.

(Is it really what Ada said...?)

Catherine squirmed.

"Okay, having said all that, we should start now. Kate, go get ready!"

Jenny's expression became fanatical again.

"All right."

Catherine shrugged. Then after disinfection, she came to the sterile room, and Jenny and several female assistants had also finished dressing and walked over.

It took more than six hours to install the entire fecs system.

In fact, it didn't have to be so troublesome originally, but according to the original plan, installing the fecs system required incision. But now Jenny and the others are using complete micro-manipulation technology, and they can install the system, which is still very good.

As the fluid was pumped into Catherine's lungs, Catherine's breathing began to shift from breathing gas to breathing liquid.

In fact, Catherine does not need to breathe at this time because the pressure pump will directly replace the fluid.

In this state, Catherine's adaptability to various pressures will become amazing.

Not to mention the environment in outer space.

After all the dressing is completed, even boiling water, Antarctica, and the deep sea, Catherine can adapt to it all.

Correspondingly, while this costume provided complete protection measures, it did not increase the attack power much. But in Catherine's view, even if she was like this, no one would be able to resist.

Hmm... Speaking of which, Catherine now wants to drive a big wood of her own and go tyrannical...

"Okay, here's this..."

Because the equipment was installed, Catherine is now unable to speak. Her lungs are now full of liquid, and the entire cavity above is sealed.

At this time, Jenny took out the indescribable object that Catherine saw at first.

To release or not to release, that is the question.

After struggling for a long time, Catherine thought it would be better to let the other party give it a try.

At worst, I will force the other party to take off this thing tomorrow...

After that, it’s the lower-level processing.

The ear part is the most troublesome, because even a partially deaf person can actually hear sounds - just like Beethoven.

So this part of the processing took a lot of time.

The eye area is quite simple, just coat the inside and outside. Because it is a mild material, it will not hurt the eyes.

The nasal cavity is already closed at the beginning, so after that, it is the outer layer.

"Phew... Done."

Jenny would never notice that the Catherine in the experiment was somewhat similar to the cover of the "Book of the New Century Gospel" placed in the shelter where Camille was...

When the helmet is equipped, the experiment is complete.

"Okay, Kate. Can you hear me now?"

After the equipment was completed, Jenny asked.

"Can."

Catherine did not nod or write.

But suddenly such a meaning was transmitted to Jenny's mind.

"——You, how did you talk?!"

Jenny's face was full of astonishment.

"No, it's just... I can let you know... I didn't speak."

Catherine was silent.

"I can't see, hear, or feel anything right now. However, there is an unprecedented strange feeling that makes me... makes me feel like I want to explode."

Catherine shook her head.

"This is……?"

Jenny didn't hear any sound.

Even this voice did not appear in Jenny's brain.

However, Jenny's brain waves suddenly formed a signal about what Catherine meant.

It was not Catherine and Jenny talking, but such a thought suddenly appeared in Jenny's mind.

Even the adjective "transmission" cannot be used.

Because this information was not transmitted from Catherine to Jenny. Instead, Jenny had such a meaning in her mind at this moment.

In a sense, it is similar to auditory hallucinations.

"No, this is not a sound... this is an expression of meaning..."

Jenny covered her mouth.

As a scientist, Jenny discovered that she did not "hear" Catherine's voice just now.

It's just the emergence of such a consciousness.

"But it feels good."

Catherine stood up.

At this moment, Catherine felt very strange.

Although his whole body was sealed and he lost all sense of his body, at this time, there was something strange that seemed to be magnified unprecedentedly.

In an instant, the world became clear.

However, this world is not perceived by the senses known to man.

Rather, Catherine "knows" as she is observed by a consciousness in a quantum state.

Although she didn't speak, Catherine had a strong feeling - it seemed that she could let Jenny know the meaning of what she wanted to express.

Not only can she know the outside world, she can also let the outside world know herself.

It was not through brain waves or anything else, but simply through a kind of quantum induction that allowed Jenny to have such feelings emerge from her heart.

Strictly speaking, Catherine did not express anything, and Jenny did not engage in any "communication" with Catherine on the current physical level. There was no so-called dialogue in modern cognition between the two parties.

Catherine just let Jenny "know", but for Jenny herself, it was just an idea of ​​"knowing" that emerged in her heart.

Magical and mysterious.

This is quantum mechanics.

"It seems like a kind of power is about to burst out from the body..."

Catherine stood up. She could observe every move in the Hive Laboratory at this moment.

No...she is not observing, she is just "knowing" this fact.

Just like this world. The world does not exist because of humans, the world itself is there.

Catherine does not need to use her senses to observe the world.

Because "truth" does not need to be observed.

He...is right there.

Just know it.

"By the way...and this..."

Catherine suddenly thought of the hornworm hand, but it hasn't been started yet, so she hasn't felt it yet.

Do you want to give it a try...?

…

Sorry, it’s late. I was studying the Cthulhu Mythos recently, and I suddenly discovered that in the face of quantum mechanics, Cthulhu is completely inadequate. Cthulhu makes people lose their sanity, while quantum mechanics directly changes people’s sanity.

Negative to infinity...
