Chapter 119 The Truth (Part 1)

Wu Lei sat quietly in the office, watching the live broadcast on the screen. Zhao Zhen hadn't spoken yet. He seemed to be thinking about something. His face was tired and he looked pale and sleepy.

Wu Lei was surrounded by some directors. Now everyone has stopped some of their work, paying attention to this incident and being ready to deal with any problems that may arise.

Everyone knows what the result will be if the truth is announced. Now there are voices on the Internet, and many people have said some things in the past.

There are more and more speeches on the Internet. The Action Department has not taken any control measures, because now the control is useless. Le Xiao has already said some questions that many people have had for many years.

The debate about transforming people into biochemical robots is half a century ago. It is difficult to evenly distribute the existing resources to everyone, so many people have made assumptions that humans will one day enter an era where the whole body is transformed into a machine, and only a brain is enough.

Once the whole body except the brain is a machine, the life span of humans can be greatly extended. There is no need to eat or drink water, just to ensure sleep.

But once such an era comes, people will lose their meaning. Some people have already started discussing it on the Internet, but there are both supporters and opponents.

Zhao Zhen's situation looks very bad. His body is shaking violently. Wu Lei stares at Le Xiao quietly. She is very calm. Wu Lei is a little surprised when he sees Le Xiao.

Wu Lei didn't expect Le Xiao to really do this and has announced a truth. The city is indeed moving towards the mechanized era. This alone has caused the city to fall into panic.

Perhaps the most fatal point for the city is the future economic structure. Once it is really determined to move towards the mechanized era, then businessmen will inevitably adjust their business strategies quickly.

The pattern of the city will begin to change because of some things announced tonight. Wu Lei showed a relieved smile. For so long, the system of the entire city has been completely solidified.

This solidified system makes people see no hope. Wu Lei has become more and more tired over the years because he can't see any changes. This is the most desperate place.

Ran Zai folded his hands in the corner, looking at the light and shadow screen. At this time, he was thinking about the next move of those crazy people. After asking the Action Department for the truth, the next plan was probably to expose some things continuously, further exacerbating the unrest in the city.

Ran Zai had asked Hydra and others to be on guard in some places. Once there was a problem in these places, all the supply chains in the city would be disconnected. The Action Department had the same idea as himself, but some points needed to be guarded secretly.

Ran Zai was sure that the rioters should not know about them at present, because the AIs would not tell them this information. Ran Zai had thought about many problems in the past few days. What was the final result of the AIs?

This was the most critical. Although Ran Zai did not know when the AIs were born with self-awareness, one thing that was certain was that the AIs had at least simulated and calculated the changes that would occur in the city in the next few years.

Ran Zai only considered what purpose the AIs wanted to achieve in the end. The AIs would not tell all the information to the rioters. After Le Xiao told Zhao Zhen about the plan for the mechanized era, he was shocked and stunned. It can be confirmed that the rioters did not know the truth.

So Ran Zai can be sure that the AIs are creating a certain opportunity. This opportunity can allow them to have independent autonomy and no longer be controlled by humans. They can move freely. This is the real purpose of the AIs.

Ran Zai speculated that the AIs wanted the rioters to make the city reach a state that is extremely beneficial to them after destroying the city. After all, if the current system collapses and the city is completely chaotic, it will not be good for the AIs.

Because the AIs do not have the ability to be self-sufficient, at least not in the real world for the time being. Only when the AIs are fully self-sufficient and become a new digital species, they may choose to destroy humans. Now the AIs have only one purpose, to take the initiative.

"Really."

At this time, a figure appeared on the light and shadow screen. It was Hua Shen. He stood on the table with a large light and shadow mobile surgical kit on his back.

9:38

Le Xiao was startled. Looking at Hua Shen in front of him, Hua Shen smiled and walked over directly.

"Let me perform a simple cancer cell elimination operation on you. Otherwise, you may not be able to last even an hour."

Zhao Zhen stared up with difficulty. He was now relying on willpower to support his body. If he died, the bomb would explode immediately. Zhao Zhen nodded in agreement. Hua Shen quickly called up a light and shadow operating table.

Hua Shen planned to perform surgery directly on Zhao Zhen's body, quickly and accurately remove cancer cells, and then let Zhao Zhen live for another day or two. For a desperate person, prolonging life is meaningless, but he is eager to know everything now.

Hua Shen did not come here on anyone's orders. He knew very well that this matter must have a result.

Le Xiao watched Zhao Zhen lying on the operating table with the help of Hua Shen. Hua Shen looked at Zhao Zhen's condition and asked.

"Do you need anesthesia?"

"Once my heart rate drops, the bomb is going to go off."

Hua Shen nodded. He knew very well that this kind of cancer has spread throughout the body. For people who can only rely on inhibitors to survive, surgery is a good idea, but it will be very painful. This kind of pain is unbearable for ordinary people. .

Le Xiao leaned on the chair and closed her eyes. She needed to rest for a while.

"When you're done with the operation, let's continue. I'll take a nap first."

"Go to sleep next door."

Niya shouted in the audience, and Lexiao got up in a hurry in embarrassment and quickly left the studio.

Faced with Lexiao's sudden behavior, many people were completely confused. They actually went to bed at such a critical time. Many people watching the live broadcast couldn't laugh or cry.

Niya and Alpha sat on the sofa under the stage. They looked at Zhao Zhen's twitching cheeks. Huashen had already begun the operation, and Zhao Zhen was sweating in waves.

But soon Zhao Zhen seemed to have adapted to the pain and no longer trembled. He closed his eyes and his body gradually became calmer, and soon Zhao Zhen fell asleep.

Hua Shen looked at the situation in Zhao Zhen's body. The light and shadow scalpels worn on both hands were constantly removing the slowly proliferating cancer cells in Zhao Zhen's body tissues.

Even after being injected with an inhibitor, Zhao Zhen's situation is no longer optimistic. The inhibitor's effect will continue to fail over time, and the cancer cells will attack the human body like crazy.

In just half an hour, more than 80% of the cancer cells in Zhao Zhen's body had been eliminated. Huashen stopped and injected Zhao Zhen with an inhibitor. Zhao Zhen's body indicators were hovering at the line of life and death. Now he must Let Zhao Zhen recover slowly, and he asked someone to get some rice porridge immediately.

Zhao Zhen only needs to drink more water in the future to help the body excrete the dead cancer cells that have been removed. In this way, the body should recover slowly. If he rests for a day or two, he can live for a while longer.

Huashen has never seen a patient so severely eroded by cancer cells who could still remain conscious and endure the heartbreaking pain.

"Stop the live broadcast first and let him have a good sleep. I will watch over him to prevent his heart rate from dropping."

Huashen said, and all the CBV staff breathed a sigh of relief. The live broadcast was soon interrupted, and CBV issued an announcement that it would be broadcast live as soon as Zhao Zhen woke up.

The city became noisy again, and many people were very dissatisfied, but they could only switch to the channels of other media companies. Now CBV programs have been completely stopped.

In several large conference rooms in the cbv building, many people seemed very helpless because they could not leave the venue and could only stay inside. Zhao Zhen had repeatedly warned them that if anyone dared to step in If you get out, the bomb will explode.

Nervousness and anxiety continued to spread. Although there were whispers, many people fell asleep. Many people felt that the whole day today was as if they had worked for several days in a row, and they were particularly tired.

10 o'clock sharp

Locke stood on the city wall. Tianhen was already reading and planning to go to the barrier area because there were new discoveries in the barrier area.

"What do you think will happen?"

Locke asked, Tianhen shook his head according to the brim of his hat.

"No matter what happens in the future, this is the result that we must face. I'm afraid we can't cover up anything with lies this time."

Locke sighed, and everyone was silent now because they didn't know what to say. The gods still didn't intervene in anything.

"When did it start? We are used to using lies to cover up the truth."

Tianhen said with a smile.

"Let's get started!"

After saying that, Tianhen ran towards the lift and watched the lift leave. Locke looked at the dim sunshine in the distance. Everyone hoped to end the current chaos as soon as possible, but it would be difficult to end it in a short time.

At this time, a director ran up, looking a little panicked.

"What's wrong?"

"There were riots in the factory districts of the West."

Locke was shocked and immediately ran down quickly. Soon Locke saw a large number of workers on the light and shadow screen angrily raising their hats and shouting.

People from Section 3 and Section 5 formed a human wall and were trying their best to prevent the workers from rushing towards the factory managers.

"What about their demands? Is it because of salary?"

"They need a break."

Locke pressed his forehead, but it happened that such a problem occurred at this juncture. The workers who gathered to ask for a break were not just from one place. These workers quickly became one, shouting that we are not machines.

Soon Locke saw the working hours of many workers in the past few days. The average working time was 17.6 hours. This number was terrifying.

Except for meals and short breaks to sleep and go to the toilet, the workers are working. They have reached their limit. Even if the current wages are a few dollars higher than normal, the overtime wages are the same, and the food is free, but in In such an anxious environment, workers' anger broke out.

But once the workers stop working now, there will be a shortage of daily necessities tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, there will be some problems in the city.

"What exactly caused it? Are the people who don't work on schedules idiots?"

Gary Locke slammed the table in anger, and several directors quickly took out the shift schedule. The workers rotated every two hours and took intermittent breaks, but some people had worked nearly 70 hours for three consecutive days.

Because large companies had put forward various conditions and raised prices in order to obtain higher profits through this matter, they were turned away. Many small and medium-sized companies took over and rented the factories of large companies.

However, these small and medium-sized enterprises are not capable of handling the distribution and management of such a large group of workers. The situation in the west is not optimistic now.

If nothing is done, the situation will become worse and worse. At present, the number of rioters has exceeded 50,000. If such voices continue, there will be big problems in the city.

Soon an investigation report came out. It was because a worker was fined and scolded by his supervisor because of several consecutive mistakes. As a result, the worker got angry on the spot and argued with his supervisor.

Later, more and more workers joined in because everyone was too tired. Some people did collapse or have accidents during work.

An explosion at one point is often very fatal in such a critical moment. More and more workers were ignited. They only had one request, to have a good rest for a few hours.

A plan has been given on site to let some workers who have worked more than 50 hours rest, and other workers continue to work, but many workers have worked more than 45 hours.

In three days, the minimum working time exceeded 40 hours. Gary Locke looked at the workers who had begun to rub against the Operations Department. If they continued, there would be big problems.

The situation in front of him was urgent and a decision had to be made as soon as possible. Soon Gary Locke used the permission code to enter the monitoring system of the western factory area and directly called up a microphone to say.

"5 hours, all employees can rest for 5 hours! I just hope everyone can calm down now. The city is in danger. We know that everyone is tired, but I implore you to return to the factory as soon as possible after resting for 5 hours."

The riot in the picture subsided, and the mighty team of workers stopped. Some people turned around and left, planning to go back to have a good sleep and eat something.

Gary Locke closed his eyes. If it was only 5 hours, there shouldn't be a large shortage of supplies tomorrow. Although there would be some, this was the only thing he could do.
