Chapter 5 Chapter 4 The computer management system is reversed

However, Brother Chen spoke very seriously, so I showed disapproval and waved my hand vigorously. The Chen brothers were silent, but Liang Chenmei urged him again: "Tell me, what weird experience did you have?" The two were silent for a while, before saying: "How many times did it happen? To be precise, there are four times in total. Whether there are more times, it's just that we didn't experience it personally, or we didn't receive a report, so we don't know. " I was shocked, and unknowingly, I also used the tone of the Chen brothers: "This building has been swallowed four times?"

The Chen brothers couldn't help laughing again: "It's not a person, it's an object, an object that shouldn't disappear, but it disappeared." Liang Chenmei opened her eyes wide and looked at them.The Chen brothers said: "The first time, it was a stack of documents—to clarify, it was a document that was going to be distributed to all employees, and a single document was equivalent to a 100-page sixteen-page magazine. .” When they said this, they looked at us and asked, "Is this statement clear?" Liangchen Meijing and I nodded together, and they said, "There are six thousand copies in total."

Six thousand copies, that is quite a large and heavy object.If it is said that 6,000 pieces of information are missing, it is naturally an extremely weird thing. The Chen brothers continued: "The files are sent through the delivery system." When they said this, they stopped for a while, and turned their eyes to the beautiful scenery of Liangchen.And the two of them really didn't understand. The Chen brothers then explained: "Advanced office buildings all have a transmission system design. There is a document in an office on the 21st floor that needs to be sent to another office on the 48th floor. What should I do?"

They suddenly asked Liangchen Meijing such a question. As a bystander, I had to listen quietly. Liang Chenmei said: "Ring the bell, call a younger brother, and send him to see you off." Most of them also knew that their answer must be wrong, so their tone seemed very hesitant. The two Chens shook their heads: "Of course not. When the building was being built, a file transfer system was designed so that it can be sent directly between every office." Liang Chenmei didn't believe it, looked at me, and I nodded: "If a building is only built for the use of an organization, it will have this kind of equipment."

I added another sentence: "This kind of equipment is controlled by the computer center. If the entire building is controlled by the computer center, then this part is naturally attached to it." The Chen brothers have no objection to my explanation.At this time, Liang Chenmei heard the smell, and asked urgently, "What happened to the six thousand documents?" The Chen brothers looked quite strange: "A large box of documents entered the distribution center, and everything was operating normally. The computer records showed that the conveyor belt had never stopped at all, but, but..."

When the two of them said this, they paused for a while, and then said: "But among the six thousand documents, none of them reached the office where it was supposed to be, and disappeared during the transportation process." They each swallowed a mouthful of saliva, Liang Chenmei suddenly stood up, quickly circled a few times, and shouted together: "This is unreasonable, didn't you look for it?" The Chen brothers shook their heads: "You still don't understand the structure of the building. The passages for conveying documents are all concealed. Between the wall and the beams, they are designed for conveying documents. Naturally, they will not occupy too much space. There is so much space, people can’t get in at all, so how do you find it?”

Liangchen Meijing was shocked: "So, what if something goes wrong?" Liang Chen said: "There is very little possibility of failure. Yes, the computer will show where there is a failure. There are TV camera tubes running along the entire transportation channel, and the failure can be seen on the fluorescent screen. Usually, there is no need to repair it. Once you understand the cause of the failure, you can correct it.” Before Liang Chenmei asked again, the two Chens had already said: "I have observed through the TV camera tube, and none of the 6,000 documents were found. They all disappeared and were eaten by the document delivery system of the building."

At this time, not only them, but Liangchen Meijing and I also showed extremely weird expressions. The incident told by the two Chens is simply unbelievable, but they have absolutely no reason to make up such a story to deceive us. Liangchen Meijing asked, "What happened next?" Liang Chen smiled wryly: "What happened afterwards? It disappeared all the time, so I had to reprint it. When it was distributed for the second time, it went very smoothly. There was no fault in the whole system at all, and it has been normal since then—this kind of thing, tell me No one will believe that not many people in the organization know about this matter, and we strictly prohibit those who know it from talking about it and making it public."

Liang Chenmei blinked: "Why?" Liang Chen took a breath: "Don't you think it's too weird?" I said in a deep voice: "If such things happen one after another, it will be more than just a monster." The Chen brothers stretched out their hands and wiped their faces: "The second missing is a batch of cleaning tools, which are stored in a storage room on the forty-sixth floor and belong to the cleaning team under the affairs department." Liang Chen Meijing curled her lips: "We thought that your building has advanced to the point where it is all managed by computers, including cleaning work."

The Chen brothers ignored them and said to themselves: "What are missing are two large vacuum cleaners, a batch of cleaning agents, and some other cleaning supplies, such as rags." Liang Chenmei lowered her voice: "Will someone steal it?" Liang Chen shook his head: "Who would take such a big risk to steal those worthless things? If someone could have such skills, they would have stolen valuable things long ago." I frowned, just feeling that things were incredible.Just now, they used words such as "swallow" and "swallow".If the disappearing items were really "eaten" by the building, then the "appetite" of the building would be very strange, documents and cleaning tools, what's delicious.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shake my head vigorously, because this kind of thinking is really absurd. Liang Chen went on to say: "The third time happened in the document erasure processing department. Because there are many operations of spying on secrets in commercial activities, generally speaking, documents need to be eradicated—collected together, through a large-scale Shredders, cut into pieces, and then mixed together, compressed, automatically packaged, packaged shredded paper, sent to waste paper recycling plant for processing. " At this moment, Liangchen Meijing shouted: "This is the second time paper has been eaten. It seems that your building is very interested in paper." What they yelled coincides with my weird idea just now.So I said: "The 6,000 documents that were missing last time is a large number. How many are missing this time?" The Chen brothers replied immediately: "Four tons." I was very surprised: "How come there are so many?" The Chen brothers explained: "This processing center is very advanced and automated. Packed shredded paper will automatically enter a box and be arranged neatly. The big box can hold four tons. Once it is heavy enough, it will automatically notify the management. system, the management office will send someone to deal with it.” The Chen brothers sighed at this point: "The recycling price of this kind of shredded paper is very cheap, and it's not even enough to pay for transportation, so no one will steal it." Liangchen Meijing made a gesture, signaling them not to interrupt, and quickly narrate what happened. Liang Chen said: "At that time, everything was normal. The management center was notified of the need to deal with it, and sent people to deal with it as usual - all the process is also automatic - the conveyor belt will put a large box containing four tons of waste paper, It was sent to the loading and unloading site in a cellar of the building. Then, the crane lifted the big box onto the truck, and the truck drove away. It was very simple, but that time, after the big box appeared, the crane lifted the big box up. The weight displayed on the crane's instrument is only 150 kilograms." When Liang Chenmei heard this, she couldn't help but let out a strange cry, and the two hugged tightly. I also quickly thought about it, and mentioned a few possibilities, and the two Chen explained one by one: "The signal of the notification management center will not be wrong, because it has been more than forty days since the last time it was cleaned up, and the accumulation of waste paper , it is true that it is time to clean up again, and the whole system has been operating without any pause. In other words, there should indeed be four tons of waste paper in the big box. But after the big box was hoisted by the crane , four tons of paper scraps are gone, 150 kilograms, just the weight of that big box──There is nothing inside, not even a small piece of scraps of paper left.” I tried my best to suppress the weird thoughts again, and analyzed rationally: "According to this situation, the paper shreds disappeared during the transportation process." Liang Chen nodded vigorously: "Yes, the long distance of the conveyor belt is 120 meters. The entire passageway of the conveyor belt is not covered by the sun, and there is no need for light. In the dark, what will happen? , no one knows, nor can it be predicted.” I waved my hand vigorously: "One after another, such strange things happen, and you don't deal with them?" Although the tone of the Chen brothers is very polite, it can be seen that they are not very satisfied with my statement. They said: "Mr. Wei, how should we deal with it? Naturally, we can ask Wei, who has great powers and specializes in solving problems. Mr. Wei asked for advice, but Mr. Wei may not be willing to see us." I snorted: "I'm not 'supernatural powers, specialize in solving problems', I believe you have also conducted investigations?" The Chen brothers sighed: "There is no way to investigate, everything depends on the computer management system, and the information we have obtained is: everything is normal." Liang Chenmei huddled together: "The computer management system is deceiving people." The Chen brothers remained silent, with heavy expressions on their faces. Liangchen Meijing said again: "You... two buildings are very strange, they seem to have become ghosts." The Chen brothers looked more serious: "We have thought about it carefully, and we don't think that this kind of strange thing happened only in our building, but also in other buildings. It is very likely that every building has happened, but everyone Like us, hidden away." They paused for a moment, and then said again: "This time, it's people who are missing, so it's hard to hide it." What the Chen brothers said was quite reasonable--a batch of documents, some cleaning supplies, and some shredded papers were missing. Although it was a strange thing, it was very easy to conceal it. become a big deal. Liang Chenmei lowered her voice: "All the buildings that have handed over the management work to the computer and the management computer are all deceiving people." After they said this, they suddenly showed a look of extreme astonishment, and looked at me, and I knew what they were thinking: "What strange ideas did you think of, but it's okay to say." Liang Chenmei blinked: "Those eight people disappeared almost at the same time. Could there be a connection between the buildings? It is very simple to connect the computers." I had expected that they would have strange ideas, but I couldn't help being stunned for a while when I heard them say this.Their words can't even be understood after a while.However, after understanding what they mean, it is unavoidable to make people chill. The beauty of the day means that the computers that manage each building are connected to each other. Not only can they communicate with each other, but they can also collude with each other. That's why eight people disappeared in different buildings at almost the same time. If their idea is to be established, several conditions must first be confirmed. First, the building is under the control of the computer and has special actions that can make objects or people disappear (how the process goes is unknown).Secondly, the computers that control the operation of the building are no longer under the control of human beings. Human beings know nothing about the commands and orders they issue. Only by affirming these two points can we have the assumption of a beautiful day.However, these two points are too incredible to be sure. I said what I thought, Liang Chenmei's eyes widened, and the Chen brothers couldn't help shaking their heads. It was obvious that all kinds of assumptions were very weird and made people feel extremely at a loss. The Chen brothers said in a low voice: "The computer management systems...unite...to oppose...what good will it do for them?" The question itself is quite weird, and they look at the question very directly, so the words they use are also very weird. They once said that the building "swallowed" people, and at this time, they said that the computer management system of the building "rebelled"── At first glance, it sounds neither fish nor fowl, but when you think about it, you don't think it's appropriate.If the disappearance of objects and the disappearance of people are all caused by the computer management system of the building, then what is more appropriate than the word "reverse"? After I listened, I kept silent, because my thoughts were very disordered, and I couldn't sort out a clue for a while. But Liangchen Meijing didn't respond, they sneered: "Businessmen value profit, don't ask anything, just ask what is good." The origins of Liangshimeimei are very strange. They retain a considerable degree of old ideas, including contempt for businessmen, so they will naturally show it.The Chen brothers are obviously used to it, so they are not angry, but "follow the good guys", and immediately changed their words: "What purpose do they have?" Liang Chenmei said: "Perhaps doing this will make them happy, and it's a kind of pleasure. There are many things that people do the same. There is no purpose, no benefit, just for fun." The Chen brothers took a deep breath: "In this way, the war between humans and computers has begun." Liang Chenmei cried out: "Your empress dowager has realized that the war is already over." The words of these two little girls were astonishing, but after they said this, they not only looked at me under the astonished expressions of the Chen brothers, but also pointed at me: "He said. Moreover, the war The winner is the computer." I sighed: "I didn't say that, I just said that human beings have created computers, relied on computers, used computers, and gradually fell into a situation where they couldn't live without computers." Liangchen Meijing snorted: "This does not mean that humans have surrendered to computers. Computers have defeated humans." I sighed again: "If you insist on saying that, of course you can." For a while, everyone fell silent—discussing the mysterious disappearance of two people, it was naturally unexpected that they would reach such a conclusion, so for a while, they didn't know what to say. It was Liang Chenmei who broke the silence, and they said: "So, should we thoroughly check the computer management system of the building?" The Chen brothers smiled wryly: "If they have the intention to rebel, how can they find anything for you?" I waved my hand vigorously: "Your imaginations are too rich. If the computer management system of the building ... rebels and joins forces to deal with human beings, then everyone in the building will suffer, but don't forget, we Right now, in the building." I said this because I wanted to deny the "rich imagination" of the two twins, but I didn't expect it. Instead of denying it, it gave them new inspiration. The grotesque idea of ​​beautiful scenery on a good day is like a powerful and unconstrained style. At this time, Wen Baoyu was not present. If he was, I am afraid that he would also bow down to them.They first let out an exclamation, and then said: "No, if they suddenly become murderous, all the people in the building will really suffer." The Chen brothers immediately responded: "Yes, they can seal all exits, stop air conditioning, or greatly increase the temperature, cut off the electricity, and besiege everyone in the building." Liang Chenmei's pretty face turned pale, and she was so frightened by their own assumptions, which can be regarded as a masterpiece, they said: "It's so troublesome, it's so easy to create a fire, all the people in the building will be burned to death── " When they said this, they suddenly stopped, but then they shouted again: "Let's get out of here quickly, and announce to everyone, so that everyone will never enter a building managed by computers again." As they talked, their figures flickered, and they really wanted to leave. The Chen brothers looked hesitant, and they didn't know what to do. The situation was chaotic and absurd. I shouted loudly: "Come back!" Liang Chenmei stood at the door, still looking shocked: "If the whole building is engulfed in flames, it will be too late to leave." I raised my voice: "You guys are messing around, what are you talking about? How can a good one catch fire?" The Chen brothers refuted my words: "It's too easy. The electricity consumption of the building is all controlled by computers. It's a breeze to create a leak and cause a fire—" Before they finished speaking, I almost punched them. I raised my hand and looked angry: "Destroy the buildings, and they themselves don't exist. Take your words: what good will it do them?" Seeing me getting angry, Liangchen Meijing and the Chen brothers stopped talking.But although they didn't make a sound, they looked unconvinced.If they are not allowed to speak, it will appear that I am overpowering the small with the big. So I waved my hand again: "Tell me, let's see if you have any alarmist words." Liang Chenmei pouted: "Cancer cells revolt in the human body, causing people to lose their lives. When people die, they die too. What good is there?" I didn't expect them to cite such an example, and it was hard to deny it for a while.But the Chen brothers denied their statement: "This example is inappropriate. The computer does not have to die at all. The building is destroyed, and what is destroyed is only the computer equipment. All their data can be transferred out beforehand to continue to survive. " Liangchen Meijing was startled for a moment, then understood what Liang Chen meant, and said in a voiceless voice: "Yes, their souls can be transferred, and their bodies are nothing to them at all." After saying that, the four of them looked at me together.I raised my hands high, then slowly put them down, shaking my head: "The more you talk, the more mysterious it becomes. You seem to be sure that the computer system of the building is at fault." They didn't make a sound, but still looked at me, and it was self-evident that they were asking me: "What else is possible?" I spoke very slowly: "Attributing some mysterious things to computers is naturally one of the assumptions, but this assumption cannot be proven." When I said this, Liang Chenmei and the Chen brothers acted in the same way: they first looked at each other, and then looked at each other.Seeing their comprehension, it seems that they have already made some kind of agreement with each other, but at this moment, I have no way of knowing what kind of plan they are planning. I said again: "This kind of assumption is very... surreal. If it is more realistic, I'd better ask the police to search it." The Chen brothers made a gesture of approval, and at this moment, the intercom rang, and one of the two Chen pressed the button, a little annoyed: "Didn't you say don't disturb us?" There was a panicked voice from the staff on the intercom: "There is a team of police officers with police dogs who say they want to search... the entire building. The police officer leading the team asked to see the owner of the building first." Without waiting for Chen Chen to respond, I said, "That police officer should be invited up." The Chen brothers accepted my opinion and gave orders. After a while, the police officer who led the team came up, and it was Huang Tang. Since the matter was very mysterious, it was expected that a senior police officer like Huang Tang would personally lead the team. Huang Tang was very happy to see me.As soon as I saw that the police officer leading the team got acquainted with me, the Chen brothers' hostility was greatly reduced.I first introduced Huang Tang's identity to them, which made them know that Huang Tang was not an ordinary police officer, which naturally increased their respect. "How do I get started?" they asked. Huang Tang looked serious: "We brought two police dogs. They have received special training and are the best Scottish search dogs. They have been familiarized with the smell of the two missing persons." Liang Chenmei was very interested: "Can you find the missing person just by smell?" Huang Tang is very remarkable, it is a very strange phenomenon for Liangchen Meijing and the Chen brothers to be together, but since Huang Tang came in, he has not been particularly surprised.At this time, his answer was: "Theoretically, it is so. Just now, in the lobby, they immediately sniffed out which elevator the missing person took to reach the conference room on the 50th floor." The Chen brothers also asked, "Where are they now?" Huang Tang said: "Still in the lobby." I said: "Please start working immediately." In Liang Chen's office, there is a dedicated elevator leading directly to the lobby. We quickly saw the two search dogs, which looked inconspicuous, not tall and mighty, but gray in color, like stray dogs.
