Start with a Mechanical Hunter Chapter 657

“Grandpa, what's out there in the sky?”

A little girl raised her head and looked at the dark clouds, which looked like black marshmallows.

“It's the starry sky.”

“I really want to go outside and have a look.”

"Why?"

“Because I heard it's beautiful outside.”

“The starry sky is not only beautiful, but also has terrifying monsters.”

"But," the girl looked at a huge mechanical city rising from the ground. The city gate was like a **** mouth: "But, I think there are monsters here."

“The monsters here don't eat people.”

'boom! '

The storage room was slammed shut.

“Suzi, you killed another rich man in action. You know it will be difficult for us to explain to the outside world.”

“Explain what? Explain that this rich man kept more than a thousand little android girls in captivity, abused them, and insulted them?”

“The old civilized moral values are not applicable to this world. These are black goods, low-level androids that are not protected by the “Bionic Man Law”. Those robots themselves don't care, so what do you care about?”

“…You talk too much, partner.”

The scene changed again. It was a dim electronic hall, with countless eyes staring at the ponytailed girl in the middle.

“Motoko Yagami, you are now appointed as the leader of the Ghost in the Shell mobile department and the first action team. I hope you can implement the will of the department and maintain the integrity of the test site.”

"yes."

In an office, a bald old man looked at him, with a smile on his cold expression.

“Congratulations, Motoko Yagami.”

“Thank you for your cultivation, Minister.”

“Do you know what the integrity of the proving ground is?”

　　The girl with the ponytail frowned and said: "The interests of giant companies, the results of experiments, and the transformation of human beings."

“You don't like any of this?”

"yes."

"Why?"

“I am one of the first orphans after the civilized era, and a certain Mr. Aramaki also cultivated my inappropriate civilized moral values in my childhood. I think this may be the main reason.”

“You talk more than you did when you were a kid, Motoko.”

　　The corners of the minister's mouth curled up, and the ponytail girl's expression softened a bit.

"Since you have come this far, I will teach you the last lesson. The integrity of the testing ground is not what you said. These are, at best, just its appearance."

The minister stood up and turned to look at the huge floor-to-ceiling windows and the huge neon world behind them.

“Morality is the final integrity of the testing ground.”

“That's the funniest joke I've heard this year, Minister.”

“Old morality is squeezed out to create a new social order. Before the new order gives birth to new morality, the order is subverted again by technological transformation, and the cycle repeats endlessly.”

The minister said softly:

"But if there is really no morality at all, this testing ground will completely lose its use value, just like those bionic people whose experiments failed. You know where those bionic people go, right?"

“I've been to all the android cemeteries, or to be precise, garbage disposal plants.”

The girl with the ponytail said expressionlessly:

“With the evolution of bionic human technology, I can feel that their intelligence, physical strength, and perception are beginning to be infinitely close to humans. After two or three generations of improvements in bionic components, it is possible to surpass native humans and even transform humans. expected.

But based on the cases I have handled over the years, I can confirm that they are not like humans at all. They do not have the empathy generated by chemical brains, and their emotional systems are indifferent and utilitarian. I think that bionic people will not dream. Electronic sheep. "

“So, you think androids don't have souls?”

“If the soul refers to a high-level information body, then the androids have indeed not evolved to that point.”

The minister chuckled lightly:

“So, conversely, do you think that the ultimate goal of bionic people is to completely become a native human?”

“I am not an expert in this field, but I have heard a saying in the scientific community that the ultimate goal of bionic people is to kill native people, from a civilized perspective.”

“Now do you understand what the integrity of the test site is?” the minister asked.

The girl with the ponytail frowned, seeming to understand, but also not understanding.

“There are monsters in the starry sky, Suzi.”

　　Iori Motoko suddenly opened her eyes.

"Good morning, Miss Suzi," Miss Ke's concerned voice sounded, "During your 2 hours, 13 minutes and 51 seconds of sleep, your cortex showed signs of heating. It is initially concluded that your brain nervous system is storing data. A special processing of information, in the parlance of civilized times, dreaming.”

Motoko Yagami stood up. The one-piece tights has the ability to keep warm, massage, and make simple repairs. It is the best 'quilt'.

“I did remember something.”

Motoko Yagami stood up. The curvature of her chest was very large, which can be used as a good protective pad for falling. Moreover, due to the improved reinforced muscles implanted, it can also be bulletproof.

Her purple eyes are filled with strong alertness and danger, giving people the first impression of a female leopard.

She got out of bed, went to the coffee table, and made herself a cup of coffee.

Although everything has been automated for a long time, she is still used to having a cup like this by herself in the morning. According to ancient books, this is called a 'sense of ritual'.

“Would you like a drink, Miss Shell?”

“I have no taste system and no digestive system.”

“You can install one for yourself, and the feeling of drinking is one of the few joys in this boring era.”

"As a large-scale data processing system serving the Ghost in the Shell mobile department, I must ensure that every piece of data generated is in its own processing mode, and the processing of 'emotional data' is very difficult, with an uncontrollability of 41.5% .”

　　　 Yagami Motoko heard what the other party meant.

"You want to say that there is something wrong with my emotion module?" "No, what I mean is that you should process the redundant data you generated last night and re-adjust the artificial nervous system to ensure that such a thing does not happen It happened a second time.”

“You want me to stop dreaming?”

“I just want to make sure that, as one of the strongest combatants in the department, your body's operating efficiency is always in the most efficient mode.”

“Interesting idea.”

“But you will refuse, as always.”

　　　 Yagami Motoko drank the last sip of coffee and said: "Please report today's process, Miss Shell."

“At 8 o'clock in the morning, you need to participate in a group meeting at the headquarters. All ten group leaders will be present. This is also the last regular meeting before the arrival of the new minister.”

“At 12 o'clock, you need to go to the 'Digital Space'. According to monitoring, more and more data refugees have appeared there recently. You have to participate in the questioning process of the Diwang Group.”

“16 o'clock, battle training as usual.”

“At 22 o'clock, as the interim minister, I will participate in the meeting of the six ministries online.”

“Let's go to the headquarters first.”

　　Iori Motoko simply put on a red jacket and went out wearing tights.

Soon, an autonomous flying car flew out of the high-end data apartment in the mother city and drove into the magnetic energy channel.

“Miss Shell.”

"I am here."

“What kind of person do you think our new minister is?”

“We have dealt with each other before. Ever since the appearance of 'Scenery of Life', there has been an 81.4% probability that Mr. G was the one who blocked us in 'The Escape Game'.”

“Is that a biological monster?”

"Yes."

“I mean his character, strong? Mild? Ambitious? Or crazy?”

"According to the information I have collected, Mr. G is not a male who likes to be in the limelight. In most cases, he hides behind women and will only come forward unless absolutely necessary; according to gossip, he I have an extremely close relationship with Ms. Black Rose in the android world and Ms. Du Zhaodi in the mercenary world."

“He seems to have a natural affinity for strong, powerful, and powerful women. I believe you will get along very happily with him.”

　　Iori Motoko was stunned for a moment.

Until the flying car fell, and the flying car automatically deformed and was installed into the floor, Yagami Motoko was still thinking about the origin of Mr. G's strange personality.

According to biology, when a cub is in its early stages of growth and lacks the protection of its mother, certain hormones will be insufficiently secreted, which will cause it to prefer a powerful mother when looking for a mate.

So this Mr. G lacks maternal love?

“Sister Suzi!”

"team leader."

Yagami Motoko nodded expressionlessly. She glanced around and saw Hitomi sitting at her work station, chatting with her little sister. The content of the gossip was that a rich man married a female bionic star, and then discovered that the The celebrity's company was still producing 'love companionship models' for female celebrities, so they angrily took the company to court.

"Captain, new news," the lazy Chappie came over and gloated in a low voice: "It is said that the combat captains of several groups are not angry with us for engaging in insider trading and decided to look good to the new minister."

"Um."

“Huh? Captain, how come you don't express anything at all?”

“What should I say?”

Chappie scratched his cheek. Did the new minister offend Captain Motoko? Impossible, Mr. G likes strong women the most.

The captain is beautiful, powerful, and has a high status, which perfectly matches the opponent's XP.

He was wondering whether to say something nice again, after all, Mr. G had saved his life before; unfortunately, Yagami Motoko had already entered the conference room.

'Motoko, you are not suitable to be the head of the Ghost in the Shell mobile department. '

'Minister, you are not dead! ? '

　　'I have a good candidate, and I hope you can recommend him. My connections in the ministry will also help you accomplish this. '

'why it's not me? '

'Do you remember the story I told you? '

　　'The test site is intact, are there monsters under the stars? '

In the darkness, Yagami Motoko could feel the regretful look in the other person's eyes, which made her clenched her fists slightly.

'I teach you the ethics and laws of the civilized era, which gives you a humanity that is incompatible with this era. But if you want to control the monster 'Ghost in the Shell', humanity alone is not enough. You must have no humanity. But , no human nature does not mean bestiality. '

　　　'You have human nature and you also have animal nature, but you are not yet incapable of being without human nature. '

　　'He can do it? '

　　'I think he can. '

By the time Yagami Motoko came back to her senses, the meeting had already ended and she had been sitting for a while.

“Miss Shell.”

"I am here."

“Connect me to the digital space.”

"yes."

At the same time as the wall opened, a kind of electronic socket split out on Yagami Motoko's temples, shoulders, thighs, and feet.

This is a 'brain-computer' technology that cannot be mass-produced.

The computing power it requires is definitely not something that normal people can afford.

Yagami Motoko walked into the wall, and the next moment, eight data cables were inserted into the jack, and in a signal cable that covered the entire Gonghuo Mobile Department building, an illusory figure flashed away, traveling through space and time. , all of a sudden, I came to the "digital space" like the deep sea.

“Welcome, Captain Suzi,” a wise man smiled.
