Spy Family

By the standards of Jiazixing, the memorial hall is quite large. It is estimated to be 500 square meters. It contains portraits, tools and various personal belongings. There are roughly categories, but it cannot be studied in detail. The whole place is like a warehouse. , filled with old items that the owner is reluctant to throw away but doesn’t want to bother cleaning up.

Jiazixing's electricity is almost endless, but there are not many lights on in the museum. It is quite dim, which conceals a bit of chaos and adds a bit of historical antiquity.

The eldest brother accompanied Lu Linbei into the museum, pointing with his cane along the way and recognizing many items and their owners.

"Don't you use written records?" Lu Linbei asked.

"Well, we have a library, and many people also have the hobby of writing memoirs, but there is no need for words in the memorial hall, because it is a memorial, a memory, not a record. So if you forget, forget it. If you remember it in your mind, there is no need Text assistance.”

"But sometimes memories can go wrong."

"Yes, mistakes are often made. This person has his own interpretation, and that person has his own interpretation. Our principle is that various interpretations coexist without distinguishing between true and false. In this way, everyone who walks into the memorial hall will evoke unique memories."

"Interesting." Lu Linbei believed that Mao Kongshan would like this approach.

"It is also to reduce unnecessary disputes. Right and wrong, truth and falsehood are too complicated. If we fight over and over again, there will never be a definite result. It is better for everyone to have their own aspirations and live in peace."

"If there is a dispute, let the system resolve it."

"That is the last step. We will not take the initiative to seek help from the system unless we have to."

"Who thought back then that this supercomputer was also a system?"

"Well, we asked the system for help, and it told us that we could use one of the machines here to stop all the machines."

"You only used it once?"

"There's only one robot rebellion."

"Are you sure? Or this is just your memory."

The eldest brother smiled and said, "I understand what you mean. You are a typical alien. When you encounter anything, you must first distinguish the truth from the lie."

"There's nothing I can do about it, I've made it a habit and I can't change it."

"There is no need to change, everyone has their own aspirations. I sincerely hope you can find your own memories."

The eldest brother stopped and pointed with his cane at something a few meters away, "This is it, Jiazixing's supercomputer. It is the one that manages all the robots quietly. For a long time, we didn't even know it existed."

"A three-hundred-year-old machine."

"Yes, you aliens are all surprised by this. The previous experts were even more surprised than you. Several guests repeatedly checked it many times and finally admitted that it is indeed three hundred years old."

If his eldest brother hadn't pointed it out, Lu Linbei wouldn't have recognized it as a supercomputer. First of all, it was very big, about five meters high, and one and a half meters long and wide. It went straight from the ground to the ceiling, like a square The pillar has no display or operation buttons. It is all gray and white, like some kind of synthetic metal.

"Is this really a computer?" Lu Linbei asked doubtfully. If the other party hadn't been too old, he would have thought it was a clumsy joke.

"certainly."

"How to do it? Shout to it?"

The eldest brother smiled and shook his head, pointing with his crutch to a nearby human-shaped ladder. The ladder had not yet been opened and was lying on the ground. It was in no way inconsistent with other souvenirs in the museum, so Lu Linbei didn't notice it at all.

"Step on it, and there's a button on it. It's the same color, so you can't see it clearly, but you can feel it."

"May I?"

"Please."

Lu Linbei picked up the ladder, placed it in the appropriate position according to his elder brother's instructions, and then climbed up step by step.

"Okay, reach out, lower it a little, then lower it, and slowly explore from left to right. Do you feel it?"

"I feel it." Lu Linbei did touch a button but did not dare to exert any force.

"It's the start button, press it, press it a little longer."

Lu Linbei pressed it hard. After about ten seconds, a small area of ​​20 centimeters square above the button lit up. It turned out that it had a display screen.

There were several options on the display screen, all with normal text. Lu Linbei could basically understand them by guessing and guessing, so he clicked on them one by one, entered the sub-options and then exited, without stopping on any page.

Within ten minutes, Lu Linbei finished the inspection, lowered his head and asked, "Does it need to be closed?"

"Don't worry about it. It will turn off after a while. When the ancestors made this machine, they probably considered that future generations would not be able to operate it, so they made it as simple as possible."

"It's really simple." Lu Linbei returned to the ground, folded up the ladder, and put it back to its original place.

"You checked it very quickly, it took the previous specialist hours."

“What I check is not quite the same as what they check.”

"Is there any result?"

Lu Linbei pointed to his head, "It has become a personal memory."

The eldest brother laughed and immediately took off the collar translator, obviously not intending to communicate with the guests anymore.

Outside the memorial hall, Mao Kongshan was playing with children. He refused to fall in love or get married, but was very friendly to children and played with them. He didn't notice until Lu Linbei came closer.

"So fast?"

"Nothing to check."

"That's not the supercomputer you're looking at?"

"Yes. Where is the system's receiving device in City A?"

Mao Kongshan walked away a little so as not to hinder the children from playing games, and then took out a microcomputer from his pocket, "Just use this. The receiving device in Jiacheng is an old computer, and it is not as easy to use as this one."

"Jia Zixing's electronic products seem to be very durable."

While operating the microcomputer, Mao Kongshan said with a smile: "Here you go again, you can't forget that 'conspiracy'. This is a major shortcoming of the modern civilization of the seven planets. Many things, including electronic products, can actually be used for a long time. , if more snacks are used in design and production, the shelf life can be longer. But this is not possible. How can a commodity society allow consumers not to buy new things for a long time? So it is necessary to waste, update, stimulate, and promote... Lu Lin Bei, think about it, when was the last time you really eliminated a product because it was obsolete?"

"Well, it seems that it has never happened before. New products are always more convenient and advanced, and old products are naturally eliminated. I understand what you mean, and I take back my question." Lu Linbei still felt that a microcomputer could be used for three hundred years. Exaggeration, but I don’t want to get entangled in this matter.

Mao Kongshan had finished the operation and handed over the microcomputer, "Look, the system's arrangements for the Jiazi people are all here. They have no secrets."

Lu Linbei took the microcomputer and stood on the edge of the steps to check it carefully.

The system is a good housekeeper, and everything is arranged properly, down to the smallest detail. There are rules even for what time to get up every morning, and they are specific to each person. There seems to be no enforcement, because Lu Linbei has not seen any punitive measures.

Jiazixing people usually refer to each other as brothers and sisters. In fact, they all have names. The male's surname is Wu, the female's surname is Wen, and the eldest brother's name is Wu Sangjing.

Thanks to the square characters, although hundreds of years have passed, the pronunciation has changed significantly, and the usage has also changed, the text has remained the same. Lu Linbei did not have an easy time reading it, but he could understand at least 70% of it.

He didn't waste too much time on trivial matters and directly checked the list of women in Zicheng, especially the newcomers who had appeared recently.

The third uncle said that Guan Zhuqian had already joined the sister group in Zicheng, so it stands to reason that he would appear in the system.

After checking them all, Lu Linbei found no abnormalities. The new people who appeared in Zicheng were all babies. The names of other people were fully recorded. It was obvious that they were not aliens who had just arrived.

Lu Linbei returned the microcomputer to Mao Kongshan, "Is there a wireless network here?"

"Cities A and Zi, as well as all Guangye farms, have wireless networks. The standards are different from those of the seven planets, but microcomputers can connect with slight modifications. The network is also the result of automated production, and the residents here still don't understand it until now. What is it? I can use a microcomputer to check the system contents. They are very surprised, but they refuse to replace it and are still using the old equipment."

"The concept of merchandise has not yet invaded Jiazixing."

"I hope there will be no invasion in the future."

"Will they keep us for dinner?"

"Jia Zixing rarely receives guests. If you want to stay for dinner, you can ask and they will definitely be willing to provide food."

"Well, forget it, let's go back to the base."

"What's your conclusion? Still think Jiazixing is hiding your fiancée?"

"I need some time to analyze. I hope Professor Mao can understand."

"Of course, if you can draw a conclusion after seeing the evidence, there will be no difficult paper to write in the world. Let me go and say it."

Mao Kongshan walked to the top of the steps, talked to his eldest brother, and then hugged him goodbye. The eldest brother waved to Lu Linbei at the bottom of the steps without saying a word.

Without an escort, the two left Jia City on their own. Fortunately, Mao Kongshan knew the path and Lu Linbei did not get lost among the chaotic colorful houses.

"Is most of Jiazixing's food automatically produced in factories?" Lu Linbei asked. He had seen the food distribution information in the system but didn't take a closer look.

"Yes, yeast production is an ancient technology, which is crucial to humankind's interstellar expansion. The food formula of Jiazi Star has not changed for three hundred years, and it is still the taste of the Earth era. In fact, you should try it."

"Let's talk about it later." Although he majored in earth history in college, Lu Linbei was not interested in the taste of ancient food.

"They also grow some vegetables, mainly for viewing, supplemented by food." Mao Kongshan pointed to a nearby resident who was hoeing the ground. The resident happened to see it, obviously misunderstood the meaning, and waved with a smile.

The vehicle was still parked where it was. After getting on the vehicle, Mao Kongshan did not start it immediately. He turned around and said, "I am not from Jiazi. I cannot be as simple as them, so I know what you found, but I don't want to hide it."

Lu Linbei smiled and said, "Well, Professor Mao helped me so much, at least I shouldn't hide it from you. The problem is that supercomputer."

"What's wrong?"

"That's just an operating terminal, the real server is elsewhere."

"you sure?"

"Even if Mr. Li were here, he wouldn't be more sure than I am."

Mao Kongshan looked confused, not believing that Lu Linbei knew computers better than Li Fenghui, "Even if the server is set up somewhere else, it's normal. People on Jiazi Planet won't know where it is. Besides, why do you have to find a server?"

"The terminal is the language, and the server is the body. Sometimes the information provided by the body is more real." Lu Linbei said nonsense. In fact, he felt that he could enter the server and view the unmodified raw data.

Mao Kongshan was dubious, "I can't help you with finding a server, and no one in Jiazi Planet can help you. It's hard for them to even understand what a server means."

"And Zicheng..."

"Don't think about it, maybe I can help you introduce the elder sister of Zicheng and meet her in Jiacheng. That's it. Don't want to go to Zicheng. That is extremely disrespectful and will destroy the good relationship we have formed with Jiazixing." relation."

"Okay, I'll think of another way."

"Oh, you just won't give up."

"I will never give up until I get my fiancée back, even if it takes my whole life."

Mao Kongshan sighed again, started the vehicle, and said with great emotion: "Woman."
