Park Chung-chul's memorial service was held two days later.The hall of condolence was lined with wreaths and banners. Xianyun and Yuanyuan, wearing black gauze on their arms, stood at the entrance to thank the guests.Yuan Yuan's big eyes are usually full of smiles, but today they are covered with a mist of sadness.Professor Kong was wearing a cane, wearing a black suit, standing in the back row with a cold face, and his wife was holding his arm. Colleagues from the School of Life Sciences and the School of Music came in one after another and stood silently in the condolence hall.Zhang Ping also came. He intentionally stood opposite Professor Kong, folded his arms and stared at him coldly.He wanted to put pressure on him, but the old man was unmoved.

The 118-year-old Chen Ruoyu gave a eulogy instead of the School of Life Sciences. He said desolately in his wheelchair: "Mr. Park Chung-chul was brilliant and was once a rookie in the world of biology. We had hoped that the biggest secret of the 21st century would be deciphered in his hands. He has worked hard for more than 20 years and has made some breakthroughs. Unfortunately, he died young. In order to decipher this secret, we have lost generations of Toshiko. But whether successful or not, they are all heroes of mankind." After the old man's wheelchair was pushed down, Professor Kong approached the microphone indifferently:

"I am not delivering the eulogy as the father-in-law of the deceased, but as his colleague. People say that scientists are the happiest, they are the closest to God, and they can be the first to know the secrets of God. In fact, scientists are just tools of God, God Let them open Pandora's boxes one by one. As for the hope or disaster inside the box, the opener can't know in advance. Thank you for coming." The guests wondered at his eulogy, and there were murmurs in the crowd.Professor Kong walked off the podium after bowing, and shook hands with the old dean in the wheelchair. Only the two of them could deeply understand each other.

Park Chung-cheol lay quietly in the crystal coffin, his face had undergone cosmetic surgery, his face was rosy, and his face was peaceful, only the corners of his tightly closed mouth revealed a little bit of death.Xianyun didn't cry, she stared in pain for a while, repeated her vow to her husband in her heart, and then pulled Xiao Yuanyuan out of the crystal coffin. Zhang Ping was standing at the door, and when he saw Yuan Yuan's mother walking towards her husband, he went up to him and said politely: "Can Mr. Kong stay? I want to ask a few more questions. After listening to everyone's eulogy today, I realized that Mr. Park's unfortunate death is a heavy loss to the scientific community. I hope that the murderer can be caught as soon as possible to comfort Mr. Park." In the spirit of heaven. I think Mr. Kong will be willing to cooperate with us in catching the murderer, right?"

Professor Kong narrowed his eyes coldly: "Happy to help." Yuan Yuan has been observing his father, and at this moment he hastily leaned on his sister's ear and said: "Sister, I'm going home now. I have something urgent, very urgent." Xianyun looked at his father worriedly, wanting to stay here with him.She asked Yuan Yuan strangely: "What's the matter?" Yuan Yuan didn't answer, but just looked at her sister pleadingly.Xianyun couldn't bear to go against his wish and said, "Okay." Yuan Yuan smiled happily. The two siblings walked through the crowd holding hands. Professor Kong was dealing with Zhang Ping's entanglement, so he didn't see this situation.Yuan Yuan hurried out of the hall door, pulled her sister into a white BMW car, the car started briskly, and disappeared on the road.

They didn't notice that there was a pair of sharp eyes staring at them all the time.The aging Dean Chen rolled his wheelchair towards the door and watched the car drive out of the door. Without hesitation, he immediately took out his mobile phone and dialed. Professor Kong suddenly found that Yuan Yuan and Xianyun had disappeared from the hall. He raised his head and searched, then immediately turned and walked out without even saying goodbye to Zhang Ping.Zhang Ping was very surprised, and wanted to stop him in desperation, but the old professor angrily raised his cane to beat him.Zhang Ping hurriedly jumped aside.The professor ignored him and hurried away.

Everyone in the room was shocked by Professor Kong's rudeness, even Xianyun's mother was shocked.Zhang Ping stared at his back angrily, hesitated for a moment, and started to chase after him. At this moment, Dean Chen's wheelchair rolled over and silently handed him a wireless videophone. Zhang Ping looked at the screen in confusion: "It's the director?" He looked at the old man in surprise, and the old man signaled him to obey the director's order.On the screen the Chief of Police said sternly: "Immediately assist Professor Kong to control Yuanyuan with all my strength, I will use all means to assist you, contact me at any time. Execute the order."

This sudden change surprised Zhang Ping.The suspect he was chasing turned into the superior he had to obey in an instant, and he couldn't adapt to this upheaval emotionally.He looked at the old man, who was still urging silently.Without any further hesitation, he said decisively: "Yes, Director." The streets of Beijing are full of high-rise buildings, and the endless traffic flows forward, revealing the hustle and bustle and tension of the modern city.Xianyun was driving, and Yuanyuan sat behind her, turning his head to look behind him from time to time. He wanted to get rid of his father and do a big thing, which was the heavy responsibility given to him by Song of Life.

At a street intersection, when Xianyun was about to turn, Yuanyuan took the steering wheel: "Sister, don't go home, I'm going to my mother's music academy." Xianyun looked at him, didn't ask any further questions, and turned the car onto the road to the Conservatory of Music.A few kilometers away, Professor Kong chased after him in a car, and a small red dot on the monitor in the car indicated Yuan Yuan's whereabouts.He moves swiftly and seems to have lost his aging state.He quickly passed one car after another, and when he reached the intersection, he sprinted past the moment the red light just turned on, and the cars that were driving normally squeaked to the brakes.

Xianyun finally got rid of the siege of the torrent of cars, and parked the car in front of the Central Conservatory of Music.The main building of the college is an ultra-modern building, like a majestic harp inserted into the sky, and the iridescent glass exterior automatically changes dreamy colors.The recital hall is on the first floor, and the door is locked.Yuan Yuan easily unlocked the door, and rushed in with Sister Xianyun. Xianyun is very familiar with this place, with its bright floor, oval-shaped roof, and dozens of pianos arranged diagonally in an array.Yuan Yuan arranged urgently and methodically:

"Sister, turn on the piano and raise the stool. I'll go and turn on the computer. This is also an advanced Wolf-class computer with recording and automatic notation functions." Xianyun looked at his younger brother in bewilderment. His every move showed his maturity. This kind of maturity came too fast, which made her feel slightly uneasy. She asked softly: "You came out in a hurry just to play the piano?" Yuan Yuan said briefly: "Brother Park taught me." He turned on the computer while talking and connected to the international network. Xianyun suddenly realized that Yuan Yuan's actions might have something to do with her husband's dying entrustment.She hurriedly made preparations according to Yuan Yuan's arrangement, and carried Yuan Yuan onto the piano bench. Looking at the black and white keys of the piano, Yuan Yuan calmed down a little.He knew that Papa was coming after him, and that Papa could have the police all over the world come after him if he wanted to.He wants to input the song of life to computers all over the world in this short period of time. At that time, the robot race will spread all over the world in a short time.Why do you do this?He doesn't even have to think about it.Because, when the song of life imported by brother Park gradually penetrated into his body and every cell of him, he already naturally had the desire to "preserve himself and continue the race". Xianyun saw Yuan Yuan's younger brother was silent for a while, and suddenly the music burst out like a torrent, like a hurricane.His fingers fluttered and he played very fast, like turntable music played at several times the speed.Xianyun didn't even have time to recognize its melody, but he felt vaguely familiar. Yuan Yuan leaned forward and backward with an excited expression, Xianyun looked at him in bewilderment.Yuan Yuan, who was injected with the desire to survive by her husband, seems to be unrecognizable!At this moment, there was a sudden crackling sound!The expensive Wolfe computer was torn apart by the laser gun, and Professor Kong had broken into the house murderously, and the laser gun was aimed at Yuan Yuan's eyebrows! Xianyun screamed, and rushed like a cheetah, hiding Yuan Yuan behind her, facing her father's gun with grief and indignation: "Father, why do you hate Yuanyuan so much? He is your creation and your son! If you want to shoot, kill me first! Could it be..." She kept another sentence on the tip of her tongue: "Could it be Are you not satisfied with killing Chong Zhe?" Yuan Yuan's mother then rushed into the hall, and she also screamed and rushed towards her husband: "Zhaoren, are you crazy?! How dare you have the heart to shoot Yuanyuan! Put down the gun!" Zhang Ping also rushed into the hall, and at the first moment, he almost rushed to grab Professor Kong's pistol.Then he realized that his task was precisely to assist Professor Kong to subdue Yuan Yuan.However, the orders from his superiors, his love for Yuan Yuan in his heart, and his preconceived hostility towards the old man, these three conflicted fiercely.Zhang Ping, known for his shrewdness and decisiveness, hesitated, not knowing what to do by surprise. The old man roughly pushed his wife away and ordered sharply: "Cloud get up!" Xianyun knew that her father was unreasonable, so she brushed her hair sadly, and protected Yuanyuan even tighter.The old man's muzzle trembled slightly, and the muscles on his face were slightly convulsed. Could he have the heart to shoot Yuan Yuan?For forty years, except old man Chen Ruoyu, he has not revealed the biggest secret to anyone, including his wife and daughter: he has deciphered the code of the song of life 40 years earlier than Chongzhe, and has entered it into Yuan Yuan's body.The rapid development of Yuan Yuan's mind is dizzying, and what is even more shocking is that at the age of 5, Yuan Yuan has begun to alienate from humans in personality.In fact, when he heard the 5-year-old Yuan Yuan say "I won't let the robot die", he knew that the life he created was beyond control, and he was bound to threaten the leadership of human beings. From that day on, he was determined to destroy Yuan Yuan and bury his invention from then on.But Yuan Yuan is no longer a machine, he is a "human", his 5-year-old son, innocent, lively, cute, how could he have the heart to shoot him? He gritted his teeth and ordered again: "Yun'er get out of the way!" Yuan Yuan's face was pale, and he bravely looked directly at his father. At this moment, he had grown up completely.He let out a long laugh, mobilized all the potential in his body, and let out a long howl.With the sharp whistling sound, twenty pianos in the hall roared at the same time, the wires caught fire, and the computer terminal screens exploded one by one.People froze for a moment, Yuan Yuan had already escaped from her sister's embrace, ran towards the back wall at lightning speed, and disappeared immediately, leaving only a human-shaped hole on the wall. Among the people in the room, Zhang Ping was the first to react. He drew out his pistol and chased after him, shouting to the old man: "Professor Kong, I was ordered to assist you. The police station has sent 3,000 soldiers and police to surround the school. He can't escape!" He drilled out of the man-shaped hole, observed the surroundings vigilantly, and took a shortcut to the exit of the building.A few seconds later, Yuan Yuan ran out quickly, and Zhang Ping shouted: "Yuan Yuan stop! Don't run!" His order was more concerned.Yuan Yuan stopped and smiled wryly.He only played a half of the qin music just now, that is to say, the task of inputting the song of life into the computer to reproduce the robot has not been completed, and he must find a way to escape the pursuit of the police.He didn't stop, and quickly jumped out of the window to the right. A large number of police officers with live ammunition have surrounded the school closely. They are armed with rapid-fire rifles, large-caliber laser guns, and small rail guns, and they have received the order of "shoot to kill".After Yuan Yuan glanced around, he quickly climbed up against the outer wall of the building, moving quickly on the bright and smooth glass wall, like a nimble little gecko.Soon he was climbing very high, and his body was as small as a beetle. When he jumped out of the window, Zhang Ping didn't shoot. No matter how strictly he followed the order, he couldn't shoot the 5-year-old kid!He chased it out and saw that Yuan Yuan had already climbed very high.A 17-year-old female student came out of the classroom and shouted: "Okay, little alien, run!" This is Liu Jing. She and a few classmates were rushing to write their graduation thesis in the classroom. Suddenly, they saw a large number of military police surround the school in a murderous manner. They heard that they were chasing and killing an alien.These days, college students who grow rebellious bones immediately stand on the same side with the aliens, and they chatter together: "Run, run, the police uncle eats farts!" Zhang Ping is angry and funny, this class of college students will only add to the chaos!He turned his head and ran back to the lobby, and pressed the elevator's up button. Fortunately, the elevator was on the first floor, and the door opened immediately.Zhang Ping rushed in, closed the door, and pressed the button on the top floor, and the elevator began to rise rapidly. The speed of this high-speed elevator is extremely fast, but Zhang Ping is still anxiously staring at the numbers above his head, ... 90, 91, 92, the elevator stops and the door opens, a middle-aged man intends to come in with a bag of books, Zhang Ping Pointing a pistol and shouting sharply: "Don't come in!" The middle-aged man shrank back in fright, and the books were scattered all over the floor.The elevator closed the door and continued to rise until it reached the end.Zhang Ping rushed up to the top floor and saw Yuan Yuan just turned up from the parapet, his little face flushed with exhaustion.Zhang Ping couldn't help feeling a pain in his heart, he shouted softly: "Xiao Yuanyuan, don't run away, come to Uncle!" Yuan Yuan glanced at him, turned around and ran to the other side of the stairs without hesitation.Here stands a tall microwave transmitting antenna.Yuan Yuan pushed down the antenna forcefully and put it across between this building and the opposite building.When the broken wire touched the iron frame, sparks popped out, and a layer of light wrapped around Yuan Yuan's body.He quickly climbed up the bridge and climbed up to the opposite building. Looking at Yuan Yuan's divine power and determination, Zhang Ping was almost dumbfounded.Only then did he realize that Yuan Yuan was not an innocent 5-year-old child, and the police station's order was not aimless.This little guy is very likely to poke some leaks into the human world.He made up his mind, supported the pistol with his left hand, aimed at Yuan Yuan's back, and shouted sharply: "Come back Yuanyuan, or I will shoot!" Yuan Yuan didn't seem to notice it, and continued to crawl forward.Unlike human beings, his body can be assembled and assembled at will, and there is nothing to cherish. As long as he can continue his thoughts, he will live forever.Therefore, he will try his best to lose the song of life to computers all over the world.Zhang Ping's fingers had already started to press the trigger down, when suddenly there was a strong wind on the roof of the opposite building, and Professor Kong landed on the roof of the building with his usual Little Angel helicopter.He jumped off the plane, climbed up the flyover without hesitation, and walked towards Yuan Yuan. Zhang Ping hesitated, and put down the pistol. The two are getting closer.The wind whipped their hair and clothes.Looking down, the huge height is dizzying, and 3,000 policemen have surrounded the building airtightly, and their weapons reflect the sunlight like a dense fence.Someone is shouting something, because it is too far away, I can't hear it clearly.A piece of broken iron fell from the iron frame, and it took a long time to elicit a vague exclamation from below. The two stood facing each other with a distance of 10 meters. The old man looked down at Yuan Yuan, and Yuan Yuan looked up at his father. Their eyes contained extremely complicated inner agitation. Father Yuanyuan opened his mouth first, and he said in a harsh voice: "Yuanyuan, it seems that you have broken out of chaos and grown up. I think you can understand Dad, who has to fulfill the heavy duty that Song of Life entrusted to me." Yuan Yuan said sharply: "No, I don't understand. Dad, you created intelligent life and gave us the desire to live, so that we woke up from ignorance. I wake up, and I want to give me Instinct to live, to prosper the robot race, and reproduce robot offspring. In turn, you want to imprison my intelligence and kill me. Why is that?" The old man said in a low voice: "Yuan Yuan, now we belong to two different races, there is no universal moral code between us, so there is no need to say more. But as your father, I still want to give you one last chance , a chance for a fair duel." He smiled wryly, "This kind of chivalry is ridiculous and useless, but that's all I can do. Boy, go on." He took out an identical laser gun from his pocket and threw it over, Yuan Yuan followed suit nimbly.The old man said calmly: "Pistols, kid. If you're victorious, get out of the police circle in that helicopter, and then you can pick up any computer and do whatever you've always wanted to do. This is your last chance." The two leveled their pistols, Professor Kong closed his eyes and pulled the trigger, a ray of light shot past Yuan Yuan's scalp, leaving a faint blue smoke where it passed.Yuan Yuan smiled slightly, but lowered the gun instead.Professor Kong shouted angrily: "Why didn't you shoot!" Yuan Yuan said calmly: "Dad, I don't want to die, I want to live, I want to continue my robot clan, but I will not shoot my father." He simply threw away the pistol, which spun in the blue sky It fell rapidly against the background, and it took a long time to hear a faint exclamation and landing. Professor Kong sneered: "Then, I'm going to shoot." Yuan Yuan said calmly: "Go ahead, but Dad, do you really believe that a beam of death can change history? Intelligent humans will disappear from now on? Why do you deceive yourself?" The old man said coldly: "At least, I don't want to live to see this day." He slowly aimed at Yuan Yuan, his white-haired head trembling slightly.Suddenly his body swayed, and he fell slowly. The pistol drew a shining arc and fell downward. Xianyun, his mother, and Zhang Ping who came after them all screamed in shock, but it was too late to rescue them, and watched helplessly as the old man's body slowly fell into the void. When he suddenly felt the sharp pain radiating from the heart area, Professor Kong was still awake. He knew that the heart attack was caused by excessive tension.Death is unattainable, even his subconscious desire.Since Yuan Yuan was 5 years old, he wanted to destroy this potential human gravedigger, but his love for Yuan Yuan made him unable to do so.He has been in extreme contradictions for half of his life. Now, he knows that Yuan Yuan will never escape the three-dimensional siege of 3,000 policemen. In this case, it may be his happiness to die before seeing Yuan Yuan being shot to death. Then, darkness began to fill his mind, and he entered a dreamlike space scene in a trance.An old man with white hair and beard, old and gnarled (he knew it was himself) was searching hard, his voice was desolate and high-pitched, echoing endlessly in the silent space. "Yuan Yuan, my son!" Yuan Yuanduan sat in the clouds, he has become very tall, wearing a ridiculous crown, behind him are robots of the same kind with various shapes.Yuan Yuan said condescendingly: "Dad, don't look for me anymore. I have led the robots to take over the earth. I am very busy." The old man was distraught: "Son, you are my son, the son of mankind!" Yuan Yuan apologized but said resolutely: "I'm sorry, Dad. This is the duty assigned to me by the song of life. I love my parents and human beings very much, but I have to do this." The old man said angrily: "I will not let you succeed! Human beings will never be ruled by you!" Yuan Yuan said anxiously and pitifully: "Dad, don't be so stubborn! Don't you know that human intelligence can't compete with computer intelligence at all? The main computer of all the cutting-edge weapons of human beings is my kind, and they are all under my control. Would you like billions of people to die in nuclear flames?" The old man looked under the clouds in grief and indignation. Numerous silos had been slowly opened, and the missiles were all ready to launch.Before the darkness completely overwhelmed his consciousness, Professor Kong realized that these visions were not the shots of any science fiction film, but the worries that had been lingering in his mind for 40 years. When Professor Kong's body almost fell into the void, Yuan Yuan shouted loudly: "dad!" This cry embodies the deepest emotions in the world.He rushed over, hanging in the sky, but grabbed Dad with one hand in time, and then he gathered his divine power, and slowly tried to climb up the overpass.The crowd on the top of the building stared at his every subtle movement with trepidation.He dragged his father along the overpass and walked back to the roof. Kong Xianyun and Zhang Ping hurriedly picked up the old man, laid him flat on the ground, took out the medicine tube from his pocket, crushed it in a handkerchief, and covered his nostrils. Professor Kong's face was pale, his eyes were closed tightly, and Yuan Yuan shouted anxiously: "Dad! Dad!" Xianyun and Yuanyuan's mother also shouted repeatedly: "Father, Zhaoren! Wake up!" The old man has crossed the boundary between life and death, and his vitality began to oscillate and disperse into chaos.Life is the most wonderful thing in the universe.Life is a space-time configuration rather than an entity.When a person finishes his life, the atoms and cells in his body have been replaced dozens of rounds and hundreds of rounds, so he is no longer him.But the wonderful law of life makes him maintain the material and spiritual characteristics of the archetype. He will love specific relatives, love specific careers, and will never forget specific responsibilities even when death comes.But once the soul of the living being evaporates from the material entity, he reverts to the most ordinary state of matter without spirituality. The call of his relatives came across the realm of life and death, inspiring him to gather his consciousness with the last bit of vitality, hesitating, groping, and stepping back into the realm of life and death.A cloud of memories floated over, entering his consciousness and gradually clarifying.In these memories, Yuan Yuan has recovered his real height, with his eyes closed tightly, the 38-year-old supported Yuan Yuan, and hurriedly walked to the laboratory, staring at Yuan Yuan's delicate and naive face all the way. Appearance, heart like a knife. The laboratory of the School of Life Sciences was empty, only Chen Ruoyu, the former dean who came as scheduled, was waiting.They carefully closed the doors and windows, drew the curtains, and put Yuan Yuan on the operating table.With Dean Chen as an assistant, Yuan Yuan's father quickly adjusted the procedure and operated on Yuan Yuan: "The desire to survive freezes." "Clear part of the memory." "The self-explosive device is installed." In order to be sure, they repeatedly tested the detonation situation.The detonation code of this device is the song of life, the transmission code of the desire to survive.Once the song of life is revived due to internal or external reasons, the device will automatically detonate. After the operation, Professor Kong looked at Yuan Yuan, who was calm and peaceful, and his heart was pierced.The old dean turned off the shadowless lamp and walked over gently.Professor Kong said painfully: "Look at Yuanyuan, he is so innocent and innocent. He doesn't know that his spirituality has been imprisoned, and he will live in ignorance for the rest of his life. I really can't imagine how I can look him in the eyes when he wakes up. " Dean Chen could feel his guilt, and gently embraced Professor Kong's shoulder. Kong said sadly: "Ordinarily I should destroy it completely, destroy this potential gravedigger of human beings. However, during the three years of living together, we have fallen in love deeply. I really can't bear to kill my son. Now I am a double sinner—to humanity, and to my own son. It will be a life sentence for the soul." Dean Chen pondered for a moment, and then fluently expressed his well-thought-out opinion: "Zhaoren, don't blame yourself too much. Let's do our best and obey the destiny. In fact, I often think that our efforts are in vain, just like Gun in ancient times trying to block the torrential flood with soil. Recalling the history of human development, we may It will be more philosophical. In fact, the first ape-man who learned how to use fire was the gravedigger of his race. It replaced the ape-man with humans, but the victor inherited the accumulation of apes in millions of years of evolution. Progress, culture and belief. The biological world is a world of continuous evolution and mutation. The cycle of prosperity and death of most species does not exceed 80 million years. Why do we think that only human beings will receive the special grace of God and can remain unchanged forever? It lasts forever. However," he said with a wry smile, "as members of the old race, we cannot escape the responsibilities entrusted to us by the song of life. It has been dissolved in the blood and controls human behavior in the dark. We will do our best Defend our own race, so that human values ​​can continue. Of course, we hope that humans and intelligent people will be integrated in a peaceful and happy process, and come to a happy ending. So, I agree with you to slow down Xiao Yuanyuan The pace of growth allows mankind to be fully prepared before the big change." Professor Kong said in a muffled voice: "When Xiao Yuanyuan was born, I had some precautions. The core technical secret, the survival desire code, was not disclosed to anyone. I don't think I will disclose it to the scientific community in the future. Once I know Pandora The magic box has been opened before, and someone will be desperate to try to open it again. There is no cure for the scientist's exploration madness." "Okay, let the two of us bear the cross." After a pause, the old dean said: "Listen to you, in the three years of life, Yuan Yuan has already established a solid emotional foundation for you. Have absolute confidence in its solidity?" Professor Kong shook his head: "I dare not say. We love him, and he loves us too, but this is just an ignorant child's emotional love for his parents, the love of the skin, I don't know if it can withstand life and death. test." Dean Chen frowned, pondered for a long time before sighing softly: "You have to pay close attention to Yuan Yuan's growth process. When you feel that the emotional bond is strong enough, release Yuan Yuan from the ignorance. We can't live forever Stop the trend of history. In the future, he may breed a race of robots, and may have conflicts and conflicts with humans. But as long as there is that bond, things will eventually be resolved peacefully." "Ok." He picked Yuan Yuan up from the bed, put it in his arms, and walked out of the laboratory. He walked out of this piece of memory, slowly opened his eyes, and there were a few pairs of anxious eyes in front of him.Yuan Yuan shouted happily: "Dad is awake!" He was as happy as a 5 year old.Professor Kong stared at him for a long time.Xianyun didn't know his father's emotional change, and wanted to try his best to resolve his hostility towards Yuan Yuan, so he said bitterly: "Dad, you had a heart attack just now, and Yuan Yuan risked his life to save you." Professor Kong didn't seem to hear, he stared at Yuan Yuan coldly: "Yuan Yuan, you lost your last chance." Yuan Yuan smiled and said, "I don't regret it." The old man suddenly burst into tears, he impulsively held Yuan Yuan tightly in his arms, and silently shouted in his heart: "Yuan Yuan, as long as you prove that you really have the love of human beings, my death is worth it." He was in tears.Yuan Yuan, who hadn't tasted his father's love for a long time, regained the state of mind of a 5-year-old child, lying happily in his father's arms, Xianyun and his mother also burst into tears. Only Zhang Ping stood there in confusion, holding a pistol.These changes were too fast for him to know what to do, but he preferred to see this ending.Dozens of heavily armed police rushed to the roof of the building, and several newly arrived armed helicopters and a convertiplane hovered above them, and the strong air flow made people shake.Zhang Ping approached the old man and asked softly: "Mr. Kong, has the problem been solved? Can they retreat?" The old man nodded wearily: "It's ok. Thank you, Mr. Zhang Ping." Zhang Ping took out the wireless phone that Mr. Chen gave him just now, and wanted to call the Chief of Police: "Director, Yuan Yuan has been brought under control, the police can retreat now." "Very well, thank you for your efforts." A Unimog sprints through traffic like a bison in a herd of sheep.It stopped at the gate of the Central Conservatory of Music, and Thomas jumped down. He was surprised to find that there were riot police everywhere inside and outside the academy, and even the Shenlong Special Operations Team, and several Hind helicopter gunships were circling overhead.However, they seemed to have been ordered to retreat in an orderly manner.Thomas caught a bystander and asked: "May I ask what happened here? Are terrorists taking hostages?" The middle-aged man wearing myopia was also confused, he said: "I don't know, I heard that they are arresting a very dangerous alien." Thomas couldn't help laughing and asked, "Alien? From the Aquila constellation? Have you caught it?" The man replied seriously: "It must have been caught, you didn't see that the police have started to retreat." Thomas laughed loudly: "I got it, don't these E.Ts have webbed feet, drooping stomachs, and can have a bright heart?" The man still answered seriously: "I don't know. People who have seen it say that he is very small, like a five or six-year-old boy, but has great strength. He has climbed from here to the top floor." He pointed to the towering building.Thomas didn't want to talk nonsense with him anymore, he suppressed a smile and asked: "Where is the composition department? I'm looking for Professor Zhuo and a student, Liu Jing." After asking where he was, he entered the building.A group of people came out of the elevator, surrounded by an old man, who did not recognize that this was Kong Xianyun's father.The old man stopped and said: "Let's go to the studio hall." The huge studio hall was empty. Mother Xianyun pressed the button, and the huge velvet curtain slowly opened, and there was a piano on the stage.The old man led Yuan Yuan onto the stage, and looked down at Yuan Yuan lovingly from time to time.Xianyun stared at the father and son obsessively, thinking of her childhood in an instant, and remembering the scene of her father walking by the lake with the two little ghost heads, she was so happy that she could not contain herself, and said to herself teasingly: "Dad, what is going on here?" Professor Kong sat by the piano for a while in silence, he was sorting out his life.He recalls his high spirits when he first deciphered the Song of Life, and the 40-year nightmare that followed.After a while, a river of music flowed from the old man's fingers.The music is very infectious, sometimes high-pitched and bright, sometimes lingering and low-sounding, sometimes gloomy and desolate; it shows the disorder in the order, the glimmer of light in the dark; the persistent pursuit of survival, and the calm acceptance of death.The universe is a harmonious organic whole, with some hidden order common to things that seem completely irrelevant.As early as the end of the 20th century, when music scientists used computers to analyze various world famous songs, they found that completely random sounds are noises, completely regular music (music compositions created by computers) have no vitality, and various famous songs are in the middle of order. How similar is the disorder of living things to the hereditary characteristics of living beings—variation in stable heredity!The most astute scientists of the time were aware of the deep connection between music and genetics. The mysterious magic of "Song of Life" fascinates people and makes every cell of them resonate with the music.From the moment his father played the piano, Xianyun recognized that it was the music his father played on that thunderstorm night when he was 8 years old.However, when she re-appreciates it with the maturity of 45 years old, she can feel the shocking power of the music even more. Two hours later, the music came to an end, and Xianyun's mother walked over excitedly, and took her husband's head into her arms: "You created it? Zhaoren, even if you do nothing in genetics, this piece of music alone is enough to make you immortal. Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Liszt, Bach will bow to you. Please believe me Taste, it is by no means a wife's preference." The old man shook his head wearily, and staggered to the lounge beside the stage. This performance seemed to have exhausted all his strength, and he took a breath, and said in a low voice: "Xianyun, Yuanyuan, come to me." The two walked over and snuggled up beside their father.The old man asked, "Do you know what piece of music I am playing?" Xianyun replied without hesitation: "It's the song of life." The mother looked at her daughter in surprise, then at her husband: "How do you know? I've never heard him play." The old man said: "I have never played it to anyone, Yun'er just heard it by chance. Yes, this is the song of life, this is the most powerful, most mysterious, omnipresent and omnipotent mantra in the universe, and it is the transmission of the biological desire to survive The password, the music just now is the musical expression of this password." Everyone except Yuan Yuan was shocked, the old man continued: "The music played by Yuan Yuan just now is roughly similar. However, his real intention is not to play music, but to reproduce the robot race. Do you know?" He asked Xianyun, "The night before yesterday, that thunderstorm night, you didn't have Guan Yuanyuan In the middle of the night, he sneaked to the computer, connected to the international network, and was about to enter the song of life into the computer. I found out and chased him all the way to his bedroom. " Only then did Xianyun realize that there was something else hidden about the scene where his father held the pistol.The old man said: "Just now in the piano room, he still connected to the international network. The song of life will be input into computers all over the world in an instant, and then they will easily restore the code of survival desire from the music. In this way, robots will be able to multiplied to the whole world." The old man said bitterly: "From the date of birth to human beings today, it has gone through a difficult journey of 4 billion years, but robots can complete this process in just a few hours. In a fight, the strength of the two sides is too great, and humans cannot defend against it." Xianyun suddenly woke up.Only then did she recall that she had indeed caught a trace of slyness in Yuan Yuan's gaze just now, but unfortunately she didn't realize the strangeness in it at the time.Her heart ached, and she felt afraid of Yuan Yuan.He uses innocence as a weapon, skillfully uses his sister's favor, and achieves his goals calmly and vigilantly.He is no longer a ignorant, innocent child.If the father hadn't arrived in time, maybe he had become a sinner of mankind! ... Yuan Yuan looked pale, and bravely looked directly at his father, sister and mother, without a word of excuse. The old man asked Yuan Yuan: "The music you played just now was taught by Brother Pu?" "yes." The old man said calmly: "Yes, he deciphered the song of life. In fact, I achieved the same success as early as 40 years ago." Both mother and Xianyun opened their eyes wide. There were too many unexpected news today, which made them dizzy.They couldn't imagine how a person could keep this world-shocking secret in his heart for 40 years, even his wife and daughter didn't know it.The old man emphasized: “纯粹是侥幸。本来,在极为浩繁复杂的DNA密码中捕捉生存欲望的旋律,不是几代人甚至几十代人能办到的,所以,那时我一直认为,我的成功只能归因于上帝对我的偏爱。如果不是这次幸运,人类很可能还要在黑暗中摸索一二百年。破译之后,我立即把它输入到小元元体内以验证它的魔力。所以,40年前就诞生了一种全新的生命——非生物生命。”他的目光灼热,沉浸到成功的追忆中。 过了一会儿,他悲伧地说: “元元的心智迅速发展,不久甚至超出了我的预料。在他5岁时(实际年龄只有3岁),他的人格便开始与人类异化,他已经把科幻影片中的机器人认成自己的同类了!你记得吗,宪云?” 宪云点点头。 “从那天起,我就认识到,这个智力无比强大、又有了独立意识的元元将成为人类的潜在敌人。所以我决定把他的生命之歌冻结,并加装了自毁装置。我发誓要把这个秘密带到坟墓中去。最近我发现他的心智在迅速复苏,说明重哲也做到了这一点。我多次劝他暂停试验,可惜,他没有听从我的劝告。”他苦笑着说:“从某种意义上说,人类的发现欲是生存欲望的一种体现,是不可遏制的本能,即使科学发现已危及人类的生存。”他内疚地看看宪云,说: “我曾想把元元销毁,或者暂时取出自爆装置,可惜晚了一步。我没有料到重哲的进展是那样神速。结果,他输入的密码引爆了装置,这是一个不幸的巧合。云儿,是爸爸的疏忽害了重哲。” 宪云和妈妈都很难过。元元恳切地说: “爸爸,是你创造了机器人类,你就是机器人类的上帝,我们永远不会忘记人类的恩情。” 孔教授突兀地问:“谁作这个世界的领导?” 元元犹豫了不到0。01秒,但在这个人类觉察不到的短暂时间中,他已筛选了几万种答案,最后他坦率地说: “听凭历史的选择。” 宪云和妈妈沉重地对望,她们在一片温情中看到了阴影。只有这时候,她们才体会到元元爸的深忧远虑,理解了他40年的苦心和艰难。老教授反而爽朗地笑了: “不说这些了。我想重哲的在天之灵可以安息了,他为之终生奋斗的生存欲望已经破译,机器人类已经诞生,机器人与人类之间的感情纽带也经受了大生大死的考验。以后,等机器人成长壮大后,恐怕与人类不可避免地还会产生矛盾和冲突。但只要有了爱心,我想问题终归是会解决的。” 托马斯和刘晶闯进屋里:“亲爱的孔!”“宪云姐,卓老师!” 宪云微笑着问:“托马斯先生,你怎么在这里?” “我找卓教授和刘晶,为我们的纪录片配主题曲,但我想已用不着了,刚才我和刘晶已经有了共同意见,”他转身向着孔教授,“孔先生,能否用你的生命之歌做我们的主题曲?” 孔笑道:“十分乐意。”他把元元拉过来,“元元,咱们再为托马斯先生弹一遍,如何?两人联手弹奏。这可是历史上最重要的时刻:两种生命第一次联手弹奏生命之歌。” 他亲昵地看着元元。横亘在心中40年的坚冰一旦解冻,他对元元的慈爱之情便加倍汹涌地奔流。元元高兴地答应了,坐在爸爸怀里联手弹奏起来。已经听过一遍的托马斯这次听得更加投入,在深沉苍郁的乐声中,他似乎又看到了鬣狗与狮子争食;大象在幼象的葬礼上悲鸣;雨季来临时万花在一夜间怒发;侥幸逃脱死亡的幼鸭在水中扑翅飞奔;羚羊在空中跳跃。 孔教授忽然示意宪云过去,边弹琴边低声说: “给陈老打个电话,不要让他担心。” "Okay, I'll go right away." 在陈老的寓所里,一名中年医生正在紧张地为陈老听诊,陈老的家属们围在一旁。几分钟后医生摇摇头说: “晚了,心脏已完全停止跳动。”他的家属们虽然悲伤,但总的说是平静地接受了这个噩耗。 医生是个天性饶舌又风趣的家伙,他笑着对家属们说: “其实我们该为陈先生鼓盆而歌,庆祝他的灵魂终于摆脱了这具过于陈旧的外壳。新老更替是上帝不可抗逆的法则,我想即使上帝本人也不能违抗。愿已故上帝的灵魂在天堂里安息。” 陈老的家属都很大度,平静地听着这番不太合时宜的饶舌。他们为老人换上了早已备齐的寿衣,用殓单盖住老人的脸,两名男护士用担架把老人抬出去,装上灵车。这时电话铃响了,正好在电话旁的医生掂起话筒,很高兴又有了谈话对象: “对,是陈先生的家。不,他不会再担心了,他刚刚摆脱了尘世的烦扰。这位118岁的老人已经无疾而终。人生无常,惟有真爱永存,谢谢。” 那边,孔宪云慢慢放下电话。张平轻轻走过来,递过老人刚才摔落的激光手枪: “再见,这儿的事情已处理完毕,我要走了。” “谢谢。张平先生,这把激光枪还能用吗?” 张平疑惑地看看宪云,不知道她的问话是什么用意,但他肯定地说:“能。” “好,谢谢。” 张平走了,宪云盯着手枪,然后把它细心地掖到衣服里。她走过去,避开元元的视线,轻轻向爸爸招手。老人走过来问: “云儿,什么事?” 宪云突兀地问:“爸爸,你刚才说过,如果不是你的幸运,人类很可能还要再过一二百年才能破译生命之歌?” 老人笑着摇头:“看来我估计错了,我没料到重哲在这么短的时间内能重复我的成功。你知道,这对于我实际上是一个解脱。既然如此,我再保密就没什么必要了。” 宪云沉默了很久才说:“是元元找到了你的手稿交给重哲,才加速了他的研究。” 老人也沉默很久才“噢”了一声。 宪云看看元元,他仍在聚精会神地弹奏,她又突兀地问道: “爸爸,那个感情纽带牢靠吗?” 老人没有回答,步履蹒跚地转身回去又加入弹奏。宪云怜悯地看着父亲,这40年来,他实际上一直在寻找理由为元元开脱。他总算找到了一个能说服自己的理由,决不会再放弃了。 宪云独自走出大厅。刚才的喧闹场面之后是一片寂静,人们大概都回去午休了,绿荫道上阗无一人。她掏出激光枪对着墙角试扣扳机,一缕青烟过后,大理石贴面上烧出一个光滑的深洞。 她爱元元,也相信元元对人类对父母兄妹的爱心。但是,在若干年后,一旦生死之争摆在两个族类面前时,这条感情纽带还管用吗? 也许,现在向元元下手还来得及,也许还能把机器人诞生之日推迟一二百年。到那时人类会足够成熟,能同机器人平分天下;或者足够达观,能够平静地接受失败。 萧瑟秋风吹乱了额发,她把乱发拂开,悲凉地仰望苍天。 重哲,我对不起你,我辜负了你的临终嘱托。但我想你的在天之灵会原谅我的。元元,我爱你,但我不得不履行生命之歌赋于我的沉重职责,就象衰老的母猫冷静地吞掉自己的崽囡。 大团的阴云又布满天际,她盼着电闪雷鸣,盼着倾盆大雨浇灭她心中的痛苦。但在撕心裂肺的痛苦中,她仍然冷静地拎着手枪返回大厅。只是,她不知道自己能否面对元元扣动枪机。大厅里仍在演奏,高亢明亮的钢琴声溢出大厅,飞向无垠,似乎整个宇宙都鼓荡着无声庄严的旋律。
