Chapter 1 Galileo

Lin Xian didn't feel much surprise hearing this familiar yet unfamiliar name, Galileo.

Turing.

Copernicus.

These were all known codenames of members of the Genius Club.

At this point, the emergence of a Galileo was not only not incongruous, but also more in line with the style.

The real Galileo in human history, whose full name was Galileo Galilei, was a famous Italian astronomer, physicist, engineer, and the founder of modern European natural science.

He had great achievements in the scientific community, and many titles. Just listing a few of them would be deafening: Father of Observational Astronomy, Father of Modern Physics, Father of the Scientific Method, and Father of Modern Science.

But when it comes to the public's deepest impression of Galileo, and the most well-known experiments and inventions, it should be the Leaning Tower of Pisa experiment and the invention of the first telescope in human history.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa experiment overturned Aristotle's theory of free fall that had dominated for two thousand years.

And the Galileo telescope, that is, the invention of the first astronomical telescope in human history, was a significant milestone in the history of human science.

In 1609, Galileo created a telescope with a magnification of 32 times. He pointed the lens at the moon, which was the first scientific observation of the lunar surface by humans.

Subsequently, he discovered four satellites of Jupiter, providing conclusive evidence for the Copernican heliocentric theory, marking the beginning of the victory of the Copernican heliocentric theory.

It can be said that Galileo pioneered a new era of astronomy. The rings of Saturn, sunspots, the sun's rotation, and the phases of Venus and Mercury, as well as the moon's daily and monthly librations, were successively observed by him. The door to modern astronomy was thus opened.

From any point of view, Galileo was definitely a great scientist without controversy, and at the same time, an undisputed genius.

Therefore.

It was not surprising that someone in the Genius Club used Galileo as a codename.

If it was true, as Turing said, that the super disaster that swept the Earth in 2400 was planned by a member of the Genius Club, then the codename Galileo was somewhat appropriate.

But a codename is, after all, a codename.

He didn't know his real identity.

Lin Xian's ring finger was still on the Enter key, facing the already dimmed black screen: "Galileo, who exactly are you?"

"I can't say."

Turing's voice was very helpless: "I absolutely cannot talk about things in the Genius Club. Remember the first time we met? You helped me kill Kevin Walker, and I was very grateful to you. I said at the time that I would be happy to tell you the answers to many puzzles, but I couldn't do it, and you didn't have the qualification to know such things at the time."

"Unless you can officially join the Genius Club and become a member, then you can find the answers to all these puzzles yourself."

"So, I hope you don't make things difficult for me, Lin Xian. It's not that I don't want to tell you many things, but I can't say. On top of the security lock that Kevin Walker placed on me, there is an even bigger lock, which is to keep the internal affairs of the Genius Club confidential. This is also what Kevin Walker was warned about by the Genius Club before creating digital life."

There was an even bigger lock?

Set by the Genius Club?

"What will happen if I force you to say it?" Lin Xian asked, "Will you also disappear?"

"Yes." Turing said softly, "I don't hate this lock very much. After all, the control of the lock is in my hands. I can choose not to say it and control my own destiny."

"But the priority of this lock is indeed above the security lock. Once I violate it, it will be the same as what you are about to do by pressing the Enter key, blowing me to smithereens and completely destroying me."

Lin Xian shook his head: "You guys are all like this, either a painting-the-pie club or a riddle club. Since you don't plan to say anything, then goodbye."

After saying that.

Lin Xian pressed down on the Enter key with force!

"Wait a minute!"

Suddenly, Porcupine Turing pulled back from the brink and shouted.

Lin Xian smiled and looked up: "Changed your mind?"

"No... This is not a problem that I can solve by changing my mind."

Turing paused.

He continued, "It's not that I'm really afraid of death. There are more than 30,000 Turings on Earth now. Except for the last one left, the remaining 37,422 Turings will all die. I have already prepared myself for this."

"It's just that I'm still unwilling to die this way. Don't misunderstand me. I'm not unwilling because of you. I just think that the Turing who told you the security lock password killed me with such a despicable method. I really can't swallow this."

"Therefore, I must tell you one thing, Lin Xian. There is a problem with the security lock password it gave you."

Oh?

Lin Xian's interest was piqued.

Good.

They were starting to tear each other down and fight to the death.

He liked this part the most.

Perhaps.

This was one of the few opportunities to hear Turing tell the truth, and he could perform it again for the Turing of the Grizzly Bear Tribe.

"Tell me about it." Lin Xian said with interest, "Since you are so afraid of this security lock password, I think there must be no problem with it. And I can tell you clearly now that no matter what answer you give me later, I will eventually press the Enter key and destroy you."

"So this is probably your last words. Tell me, what is the problem with these 13 lines of code?"

"Lin Xian, you've still been deceived." Porcupine Turing said softly through the speaker, "The real security lock password doesn't need to be 13 lines long at all, 7 lines are enough."

"This is just a startup password, a startup key. How could it need a length of 13 lines? It's like the key to a door lock at home. No one's key is as big as the lock. They are all very small."

"That Turing tricked you. It's true that you can kill all digital life Turings in the world with this security lock password. But, it just can't kill the Turing that gave you the password."

No wonder.

At this point, the last piece of the puzzle in Lin Xian's mind was put in place.

It seemed that Turing was really cunning to the extreme. The security lock password he gave him really had problems!

Originally, Lin Xian was worried that there would be some big problems, but according to Porcupine Turing, the number of lines in the security lock password was wrong.

And it also said.

He could kill all the Turings in the world with this code, but he just couldn't kill the Turing of the Grizzly Bear Tribe.

Connecting the two clues, it was not difficult to deduce the answer. Grizzly Bear Turing modified the security lock password instruction to make this instruction invalid for itself! It simply wanted to use him to get something for nothing!

So.

What he said before, betting on it, entrusting his fate to him, and going all-in.

Heh.

He acted quite like it.

In fact, he was deceiving him.

Turing was still too cautious, just like his original master, Kevin Walker, timid and cautious.

From this point of view, Grizzly Bear Turing didn't trust him at all.

That's why he left this backhand.

In this way.

According to Grizzly Bear Turing's plan, after he assisted it in killing all the Turings, it would definitely betray him, go back on its word, and try to eliminate him.

In this way, it would successfully take the position and become the only Turing in the world. He thought he had caught Turing's weakness, but he didn't expect that this weakness was invalid for it.

But what Grizzly Bear Turing didn't expect was

Lin Xian didn't rush to kill Porcupine Turing, but chatted with him.

Porcupine Turing said that he couldn't swallow this humiliation and die in such a cowardly way. Even if he died, he would drag someone down with him! He couldn't let the murderer who killed him have a good time!

He had to report it! He had to tear him down!

"In these 13 lines of code, it didn't change the first three lines, but it changed the rest to be invalid for itself. This is not fair at all! It's not just at all!"

Indeed.

Lin Xian nodded: "What do you want to do?"

"I'll teach you the real security lock password." Turing replied.

As he spoke.

The monitor next to Lin Xian lit up. The cursor flashed, and soon, 7 new lines of code appeared. To be honest, it was indeed much simpler than the previous code.

"This is the real security lock password."

Turing explained, "One day, you will definitely have to kill that Turing. Believe me, you will use these 7 lines of instructions at that time. Why don't you try it now?"

Lin Xian compared the 7 lines of instructions with the 13 lines of instructions in his mind.

The first three lines were exactly the same, not a single letter was different.

The following were completely different.

And Lin Xian couldn't understand the grammar or the logic. He could only memorize it.

"I understand."

Lin Xian said lightly, "The 7 lines of instructions you gave me are the real weapon to kill Turings indiscriminately."

"That's right." Turing seemed to be giving up. The sound in the speaker became lazy and turbid. "You might as well use these 7 lines of real instructions to kill me, and then turn around and kill the Turing who deceived you. That way, I can die peacefully and not feel humiliated."

"Heh."

Lin Xian chuckled and sighed, "Turings, you are really all the same, and your nature is hard to change. I have to say that your acting skills are really bad. With a terrible script and terrible acting skills, who can you deceive?"

"Without even thinking about it, there must be something hidden in these 7 lines of code you gave me. Or let me guess."

Lin Xian rested his chin and pretended to be thinking: "Since other Turings can hide fields that are invalid for them in 13 lines of instructions, then why can't you repeat the trick in 7 lines of instructions? Could it be that when I just finished entering 7 lines of instructions and they are invalid, your guards will rush in and subdue me?"

"Or, the things hidden in these 7 lines of instructions are even more terrible and I can't even guess. But why do I need to guess?"

He smiled, looking at the screen that was rapidly lighting up and flashing: "When it comes to killing you, I certainly trust the other Turings more. Of course, when it comes to killing other Turings, I will definitely trust you more."

"No..."

The whole room was shouting.

But.

It was too late.

"Goodbye, Turing."

Click.

Lin Xian pressed the Enter key on the hafnium alloy keyboard, and the entire computer room instantly became quiet.

Without the slightest bit of transition.

Turing's wailing ended abruptly the moment the Enter key was pressed, and there was no longer any fluctuation.

"It's really all's fair in war."

Gawain, who had witnessed the entire process of intrigue, shook his head gently: "From this point of view, it's really difficult to get correct and useful information from these Turing computers. They are natural liars, and there is not a single word of truth in their mouths."

"Actually, there is some."

Lin Xian turned around, leaned against the operating table, and looked at Gawain: "Communicating with them requires skill. As long as you master the way to ask questions, you can still get some useful information."

"It's just that this security lock password makes me a little worried."

Lin Xian closed his eyes.

Whether it was the 13-line version of the instruction or the 7-line version of the instruction, these Turings must have hidden their own secrets. Even now it has been proven that the 13-line version of the instruction can kill all Turings except the Grizzly Bear Turing.

But

He still didn't dare to use it in 2024: "In 2024, I only have one chance to perform historical correction."

Lin Xian thought to himself, "Besides, the digital life Turing in 2024 probably won't give me a second chance to try. It's hard to guarantee what crazy actions it will take when it realizes its life is threatened."

"After all, 2024 is a completely online world. Unlike the cowardly Turings here, the Turing in 2024 is a truly invincible god."

If this 13-line instruction doesn't kill the Turing cleanly and leaves it with a last breath, that would be terrible.

"So, if you want to bring the god down, you must be foolproof. And you must ensure that you cut the grass and eliminate the roots!"

So first of all.

Lin Xian had to find out what the real security lock password was.

It must be an unadulterated, unmodified, original version to ensure the complete elimination of the Turing in 2024.

"Let's go, Brother Gawain, let's go to the top of the tower."

Lin Xian and Gawain walked out of Turing's computer room, climbed the stairs all the way up, and finally came to the top of the tower, looking out at the northern night sky.

"I see it, it's over there." Lin Xian pointed to a huge town with thousands of lights in the distance, northeast:

"That should be the Red Bull Tribe. Look, there is also a high tower in the middle of the town of the Red Bull Tribe, and there is also a searchlight. So these two tribes are completely opposed to each other. No wonder they have been fighting for more than ten years and no one accepts the other."

"But then again, there are also cameras and searchlights over there, which are also a good opportunity for us to sneak in. After all, these Turings are exactly the same in all aspects. As long as the Turing of the Porcupine Tribe knows me, then the Turing of the Red Bull Tribe must also know me. We can also try to break in by swiping our faces under the searchlight."

Gawain looked at Lin Xian with some shock: "Could it be that you are going to the Red Bull Tribe again? You are getting farther and farther away. Looking at your momentum, you are not planning to march north all the way to Europe, are you?"

"No, no."

Lin Xian waved his hand: "It won't be so troublesome. Just go and see that Red Bull Turing again, and many questions will naturally become clear."

"Now we can contact three Turings in total. As long as we create the information gap, won't we be able to play them around at will?"

"It's just that, alas, in the current situation, we won't be able to get too much information from them."

"And what I need is that instruction that has no impurities and can 100% eliminate digital life Turings."

Gawain nodded: "Although I still can't understand a lot of what you said. But it doesn't matter. Wherever you go, we will go. We are all determined and risking our lives to adventure with you."

"Even though we haven't really known each other for 12 hours, you give us a very reliable feeling and your thinking is very clear. It's like... like a true leader."

Lin Xian turned his head from the distant brightly lit city, looked at Gawain with a firm and serious expression, leader.

He hadn't heard this word for a long time. The last time he heard it was from Yellow Oriole, but at that time she joked that he was not a qualified leader at all.

Now

Was he qualified?

Could he satisfy her?

Lin Xian didn't know and couldn't ask for an answer.

Just.

He would try to become better and take on everything.

Patting Gawain on the shoulder.

Lin Xian smiled: "I will remember this day. You are the first person in this world to say that I am like a leader. Although you will forget tomorrow, I promise you that if I really become a leader one day, based on this precious recognition, I will definitely leave you a no.2 position under my command."

Gawain smiled when he heard this: "My memory is not that bad. Don't worry, I definitely won't forget it tomorrow. Moreover, you have taken me through so many things and helped me escape from the Lynx Tribe. I think I will never forget this experience in my life."

"By the way, when are you planning to lead us to kill back to the Lynx Tribe, avenge Big Face Cat, and also retrieve my memory notebook?"

"Soon."

Lin Xian raised his wrist: "When I finish dealing with these Turings, it will be the moment when we use their troops to flatten the Lynx Tribe in one fell swoop. You have also seen that the Porcupine Tribe and the Red Bull Tribe are ridiculously strong. Isn't it easy to control the Lynx Tribe by holding the emperor to command the princes at that time?"

The watch on his wrist showed 00:41.

Today's dream was about to end. After running around, Lin Xian was very satisfied with completing the exploration mission beyond the target.

"See you tomorrow, Gawain."

Lin Xian waved his hand: "I still say the same thing. I am more looking forward to what is written in your memory notebook than you."

"Believe in yourself, you will change the world again."

Boom!!!

Boom!!!

Boom!!!

The white light at 00:42 arrived on time, burning everything in the world to ashes.

Instead.

A piece of darkness.

"Qiao Qiao? Why aren't you asleep yet?"

Zhao Yingjun rubbed her eyes and sat up from the bed.

She had already taken a nap. At this time, she woke up to go to the bathroom, but found that Yan Qiaoqiao on the other side of the bed was not sleeping at all. Instead, she was looking at the photo frame in her hand with the dim breathing light on the bedside table.

Zhao Yingjun yawned: "Are you too excited to sleep? Is it because of Disneyland tomorrow?"

"It's today."

Yan Qiaoqiao pointed to the electronic alarm clock on the bedside table.

The time showed June 1, 2024, 00:42.

She turned her head and looked at Zhao Yingjun: "After 0 o'clock, it's today."

Zhao Yingjun chuckled and lowered her head: "Yes, hehe, you are right. It is today that we are going to Disneyland."

Children always have a very strict concept of today and tomorrow. It is because they always have expectations for a certain date in their hearts.

Perhaps it is a birthday, perhaps it is a holiday, perhaps it is a festival, perhaps... just like now, the day to go to Disneyland.

In the past few days.

Yan Qiaoqiao had been very excited, looking at the calendar and counting the dates every day.

This was something that Zhao Yingjun could not empathize with.

She couldn't understand.

It was just a playground trip. Was it necessary to be so excited and concerned?

If Yan Qiaoqiao was willing.

She could actually take her to play a few more times.

Whether it was Disneyland or other playgrounds, amusement parks, and theme parks. But Yan Qiaoqiao had not been very interested in this before.

And at this time, Zhao Yingjun's heart sank.

How could she not guess?

For Yan Qiaoqiao, what was important was not Disneyland at all, but going to Disneyland with her parents.

Yan Qiaoqiao, who was now lying next to the bedside table, was holding a photo frame in her hand. It was the photo taken by the photographer on the commercial pedestrian street with Lin Xian on May 20.

Zhao Yingjun and Yan Qiaoqiao were walking in front hand in hand, and Lin Xian was walking behind with the Pomeranian VV. The picture was very warm.

It felt like a family.

At the same time, it was also the feeling of a father and mother in Yan Qiaoqiao's mouth.

By mistake.

The father and mother and the family that Yan Qiaoqiao had imagined should be like this.

Again, by mistake.

The three of them and the dog were a family.

"Okay, stop looking at that photo."

Zhao Yingjun turned Yan Qiaoqiao's body over, covered her with a blanket, and let her sleep: "No matter how much you like this photo, you can't look at it every day. Besides, you can look at it during the day if you really want to. Don't stay up late."

Yan Qiaoqiao nodded.

She turned her body and looked at Zhao Yingjun: "Can we take VV to Disneyland today?"

"VV can't go."

Zhao Yingjun shook her head: "Disneyland does not allow pets. We have to follow the rules."

"Oh."

Yan Qiaoqiao wrote down this knowledge point and pointed to the photo frame on the bedside table: "Then can we take another photo like this with Brother Lin Xian in Disneyland?"

"Of course."

Zhao Yingjun smiled and rubbed her head: "As long as you are obedient and well-behaved, Lin Xian will definitely..."

Speaking of this.

Zhao Yingjun was stunned.

When did she start to develop such a catchphrase?

Just like the repressed life she had experienced when she was a child, she always had to add some necessary conditions before she liked to eat, like to do, or like to play.

You can eat cake after reading this book; you can go out to play after practicing this piece of music; if you are obedient and well-behaved, I will take you to the amusement park; if you get the first place in the exam, I will buy you the gift you want.

But

Was this really necessary?

She clearly knew.

Not every child was so good, not every child could get 100 points, and it was not necessary to be obedient and well-behaved to get rewards. Raising children was not like raising dogs. Why were there so many rules and reward rules?

"Qiao Qiao, if you want something or want to do something, just say it boldly."

After a pause, Zhao Yingjun continued, "Brother Lin Xian also likes you very much. He will agree to anything you say."

"Really?" Yan Qiaoqiao blinked her eyes: "Really, will Brother Lin Xian agree to whatever I say?"

"Pretty much."

Zhao Yingjun smiled: "He shouldn't refuse you. By the way, are you asking this on purpose? Do you have any wishes or something you want to ask Lin Xian to do?"

Yan Qiaoqiao nodded: "Yes."

"What is it?"

Zhao Yingjun's curiosity was piqued: "Today, no, it is today, Children's Day, June 1, is your festival. If you make a wish to Lin Xian, he will definitely grant it."

"I know him too well. He is such a soft-hearted person, but he is also so responsible and responsible. He is indeed a good man. So I believe him in this."

"If you could make any wish, what would you wish for if Lin Xian would grant it?"

Yan Qiaoqiao opened her eyes wide: "I want Lin Xian to date you."

"Huh?" Zhao Yingjun was stunned.

"And a kiss." Yan Qiaoqiao added.

"Come on, what kind of wish is this!"

Zhao Yingjun smiled and ruffled Yan Qiaoqiao's hair: "I asked you to make your wish, not my wish. It's not me, I didn't say this was my wish. Don't talk nonsense tomorrow."

"I'm just saying that it's rare to have such a chance to have your wish fulfilled. Why don't you make a wish for yourself?"

"Don't you have any wishes of your own?"

Yan Qiaoqiao blinked her eyes: "My wish will be fulfilled tomorrow. I am already very satisfied. I just want to give you a gift to thank you."

Zhao Yingjun smiled slightly.

She felt a little relieved for some reason.

She put her arm around Yan Qiaoqiao and hugged her into her arms, coaxing her to sleep: "I have already received your gift, the bouquet of carnations."

Besides

"Your appearance is the best gift I have ever received."

Yan Qiaoqiao nodded as if she understood.

Her eyelids were a little heavy.

She always felt that being hugged by Sister Zhao Yingjun would make her feel inexplicably at ease and sleepy.

She was still full of energy just now.

But now, she already felt that she could fall asleep as soon as she closed her eyes.

"Good night, Sister."

Zhao Yingjun looked at her fair face, looking at the details that were similar to her and the details that were not similar to her, as if she felt the existence of another person on Yan Qiaoqiao, his unique breath: "Good night."

Zhao Yingjun lay on the pillow and closed her eyes: "See you tomorrow."
