Chapter 36: A Theory of the Self
Chapter 36: A Theory of the Self
==============================
The rehabilitation facility is located in Aoba District, surrounded by land designated by agricultural planning—it’s midsummer, and green fruits can already be seen on the patchwork peach trees here; Come to life; you have to pass through the peach groves, and the flat white square buildings will be exposed to your sight.
Under the cover of greenery, the tranquil and peaceful atmosphere of the rehabilitation facility makes people unable to help but relax their nerves.The staff inside are also amiable. As soon as they saw you walking in, a lady in a green suit came over——
"Hi, I'm Nakahara Chuya who made an appointment, and the purpose is to visit Shirase and Yuxing." Nakahara Nakaya bowed cautiously, and he took out his mobile phone to signal, "Here is the appointment code, and the appointment time is from ten o'clock to Eleven o'clock."
"Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Zhongyuan." The staff member smiled sweetly. She took out a square box and quickly scanned Zhongye's appointment code.With a beep, the picture on the screen jumped to the cute artificial guide.Seeing this, the woman bowed, with a professional and considerate tone, "There is still a period of time before your appointment, you can take a break with your friends. Afterwards, our mascot Ke Meisha will guide you along the route. Wishing you and your friends a great day!"
"Yes, thank you very much."
You and Zhong also returned a salute.
Seeing the other visitor smiling and walking towards the next visitor, you elbowed Nakaya on the back: "It's unexpectedly formal, this rehabilitation facility."
"After all, it is one of the government's image projects. It is said that the financial allocation required for annual operations accounts for one-sixth of the welfare expenditure." Subconsciously pressing the brim of the hat, the orange-haired youth realized that he was not wearing a hat, so he had no choice but to wear it. I got used to it and pulled down my tie, "Really, if I knew it earlier, I wouldn't have to bother you."
"Hey, I've had lunch anyway, I don't care," you blinked and stretched indifferently.But it is such a small action that makes you notice something strange——
The camera in the upper left corner seems to follow your movements, moving a bit?
"...Hey, Zhongya, did you notice?" You seemed to be walking around the orange-haired young man casually, and you could clearly catch the fine-tuning movement track of the camera out of the corner of your eye, "Is the surveillance here a bit too tight? ? Visitors like us will also be monitored in real time?"
"...Sorry, I forgot to tell you this before." Zhong Yuanzhong had also discovered the monitoring facilities a long time ago, and he was also pressing himself to resist the beating nerves.However, through the investigation before the visit, the man was somewhat prepared for this kind of monitoring. "The monitoring here is completely automated by the Sibilla system. It is said that it uses high-tech, so the data is fully covered in real time."
"It's a bit perverted, it sounds," the instinct of the dark world clamored that it was not good, your face was calm, but your heart gradually became irritated, "You mean, even if the data is uploaded, it is safe and reliable?"
"After all, in the database at Sibilla, you and I should be missing values." Recalling the distance from the automatic monitoring equipment, Zhong also looked quite calm, "As visitors at the terminal of the rehabilitation facility, our information At the beginning, it was recorded into the central system. All subsequent activities can be completed by using that electronic authority, and there is always a price to sacrifice for efficiency.”
Hearing this, an almost absurd guess arises in your heart——
"Hey, Chuya, are you a supporter of the Sibyl system?"
"Not really, but that thing does solve some problems."
As you talked, you have unknowingly reached the end of the first floor.This is a coffee room converted from a wide hall. The main body is a small booth composed of scattered soft chairs and small potted shrubs. Except that drinks can only be obtained from vending machines, this place is not much different from ordinary shops. difference; even, you can still see many [patients] in striped hospital gowns gathering together in twos and threes; in the soothing music, every visitor seems to be quite relaxed.
So you also do as the Romans do, and choose a slightly hidden location next to the floor-to-ceiling windows.
"Here, because I don't know what you want, so I just bought black coffee." The orange-haired young man threw you a can of coffee, and then threw himself into the soft chair, "Where did I just say, J? Ah, Sibyl..." Seemingly considering his words, he paused for a moment and continued, "Didn't that thing really reduce the crime rate in Yokohama?"
"...Are you serious?" You can't believe that, as a high-level member of the Hong Kong gangsters, Zhongyuan Zhongye is not a clear-cut opposition. This incident simply subverts your cognition, "But Mr. Billa's? So, why...?"
"Because BOSS firmly believes that he can bear the fate of the organization; therefore, he also believes that everyone can bear the responsibility behind the choice?" Zhong Yuanzhong also smiled. For some reason, you always feel that his tone is somewhat With a bit of bitterness, "Of course I believe that BOOS can do it, and I am willing to dedicate my blood to it... However, my experience tells me that the choice of mediocrity is just a one-way ticket to hell. Sibylla just helps them a little It’s no big deal to correct your own life.”
After hearing this reason, you are even more confused: "But just now, you were clearly persuading me to make a firm choice?"
"Because you are someone who can afford to choose," Zhong also said without hesitation, "but most people can't even accept the consequences. There is nothing wrong with letting them live in a toy box safely. .”
"……But"
Before you could say anything more, a deep and heavy voice interrupted your conversation: "Forgive me for saying this, young man."
A face popped out from behind the bushes. The person with short blond hair and blue-green eyes looked past his age.You really can't imagine that such a middle-aged gentleman would dare to intervene cheekily after eavesdropping on other people's conversations; Zhong also looked slightly unhappy, and an inconspicuous storm was quietly brewing in his cobalt blue eyes.
"Hahaha I'm sorry, it's really because the orange-haired boy's statement is too far from our original purpose of establishing Sibylah," the elegant man was unexpectedly hearty, and he laughed and explained, "As a technical support One, it's hard for me to keep silent at this time no matter what."
"The original purpose?"
"Technical Support?"
You and Zhong also looked at each other, and then shouted in tacit agreement.
Hearing this, the blond man smiled kindly, and briefly introduced himself: "I am one of the technical support staff who came to make a return visit. My name is Alexis Reiskinen, and I am called Reisginen or Any professor can."
You are a little uncomfortable to see yourself criticizing the founder of the system suddenly.Zhong also seemed much calmer. After digesting the identity of the other party, he asked directly: "You just said that there is a huge difference, professor, isn't the Sibyl system originally created to reduce the crime rate?"
"Reducing the crime rate is just the most insignificant addition." Stretching out a small distance between his index finger and thumb, Professor Reiskinen explained with a smile, "Think about it, young man, the Sibyl system represents a A nearly perfect science and technology decision-making system that can cover the entire country, such a dreamlike achievement must have a value that matches its identity, right?"
"But there are huge loopholes in the actual operation, professor." Recalling Sibyl's poor performance in the last chaos, you couldn't help but retort, "It's just a city like Yokohama, and the Sibyl system cannot be perfectly supported. Coordinate the operation of all parties. As the founder of Sibilla, do you praise this system a little too much?"
"Is that really Sibyl's fault, kid?" Not offended by your offense, Mr. Professor kindly threw out a rhetorical question, "Think about it carefully?"
Unable to refute.
Seriously recalling the so-called mistakes, you suddenly find that those technical deficiencies are more caused by the government’s inaction and lack of support, rather than Sibylla’s own problems: if the scanning and testing facilities are covered in all directions, Yokohama’s In fact, the situation will not deteriorate to that extent—to put it more bluntly, if you don’t let these [extra variables] go unchecked, maybe the system will maintain a long-term peace?
Seeing you thinking deeply, Reskinen nodded, and then he looked at Chuya again:
"Choices in life are certainly not the only purpose of Sibyl. In fact, meritocracy and fair distribution are behind it. If we can objectively evaluate the quality of each person and distribute them, there must be more talents who can achieve their own goals. In such a society, there is nothing wrong with pursuing self-sufficiency—sufficient creations have already provided us with a stable Garden of Eden!"
very ideal, very beautiful;
But for some reason, you always feel that something is not right.
However, due to the lack of understanding of the Sibyl system, you can't say anything substantive.
Fortunately, the other party suddenly received a text message, apologized hastily and left.
Looking at Reiskinen's back, you frowned and said, "Hey, Chuya, what do you think of this guy's speech?"
"Just listen to it, J." Zhong Yuanzhong was not at all confused, he looked at his phone, and the reason he gave was simple and rude, "There has never been a perfect system and system, and everyone benefits equals no one." Benefits. Instead of worrying about idealist ideas, you might as well think about what to say to Shirase and Yuxing for a while."
"Oh? I want to say it too? I don't even remember them!!!" Suddenly attracted by Chuya's words, you grabbed your hair, frowning, "Is it time? Is it time?! I have to think about it Lah! I can’t just say that I have amnesia, isn’t that weird?”
"Whatever, let's go."
Throwing the empty can into the trash can beside him, Nakahara stood up, shook his phone,
"First Shirase, then Yuxing. Hurry up, time is limited!"
"Yes Yes!"
One after the other, you also hurriedly left the rest hall...
