Chapter 2122: Chapter 2122: Clues on the Ship
The boy remained silent, and Xu Huo presented the data he had just checked in front of him. "Zone 008 was capable of precisely screening and editing genes a hundred years ago. Although gene editing went against human ethics and was never recognized, genetic screening beca quite common. Unwanted child traits like laziness, naughtiness, and violence could be screened out, resulting in many achieving their ’ideal next generation.’ Thus, within just twenty years, genetic screening beca legislated and gradually improved, with the most enhancent seen in gene elimination. An energetic, naturally optimistic next generation with a loyalty complex could maximize benefits for Zone 008."
"However, ten years after strict genetic selection was implented, an uprising broke out in Zone 008. You can learn about the process yourself. The result was that the Zone 008 governnt was forced to abolish regulations related to genetic selection and banned most genetic screenings, retaining only checks for major disease genes."
"In other words, a century ago, there’s a high probability that soone as theatrical as you wouldn’t be born."
"And now, it’s the sa. Since you were born, it ans you didn’t inherit any kind of irrevocable, unsalvageable gene, which is why you’re enrolled in a special school to study."
"If genetic screening didn’t filter
out, why am I confined here?" the boy questioned after hearing this.
"Do you still need to ask
such a simple question?" Xu Huo said indifferently, "The one responsible for you has to be responsible for others too."
The boy let out a peculiar laugh, "Then why can’t you confine the others?"
"If you’re able to, you can do that too," Xu Huo didn’t dismiss his idea.
The boy beca silent again, then after a mont he asked, "Why, why am I labeled as an outlier, while you are not?"
Xu Huo chuckled softly, "Why do you think you’re an outlier? You’re just an ordinary person."
"Extre good and extre evil are both hard to achieve. You’re just an ordinary person stuck in the middle, so there’s no need to consider yourself so special."
The boy seed to catch onto sothing useful and imdiately stared at him, "You’re trying to convince , to make
think there’s no difference between
and those hypocritical people out there!"
"Do you think there’s a difference between you and them?" Xu Huo retorted.
The boy fell completely silent, tightly sealing his lips and refusing to converse any further.
Xu Huo had no intention of persisting with him and stood up, "Today’s counseling session is over, go back to class."
After leaving the counseling room, he told the surveillance in the corridor, "I want to take a walk."
A woman’s voice quickly responded, "You will be notified if there’s a class, you can arrange your ti freely otherwise."
Xu Huo left the school building, walked around the school, and then headed towards the Rabbit Ear Playground’s warehouse.
Upon nearing the area, he could see workers coming and going. He found the right mont to place the Girl in the painting, who had transford into a painting, into a transport vehicle, letting her follow the vehicle onto the ship.
After sitting in a nearby small park for an hour, the Girl in the painting sent a ssage. She learned from several staff mbers that initially, Rabbit Ear Playground had reserved another ship, and everything was almost set up, but Haiyun Technology temporarily borrowed it. So Rabbit Ear Playground had to replace the ship last minute and was now rushing to prepare.
"They said there’s insider news, Haiyun Technology will pay a large sum because they damaged the ship."
"Thank you, co out now," Xu Huo replied.
The Girl in the painting quickly mingled with the garbage truck and left the ship. Having been instructed beforehand, she maintained her painting form as she disembarked.
Xu Huo collected the painting and reassured her, "This division has a lot of surveillance, and it’s hard to escape if monitored. We ca here for a serious matter and need to make good use of our ti."
Zone 008 doesn’t have a Super Player, but the dense surveillance and targeted detection instrunts here easily expose traces. There’s also a high possibility that this division was granted a backdoor by the Ga Governnt. The absence of Super Players in this zone doesn’t an they won’t co from elsewhere, so the Girl in the painting appearing less frequently is safer and also reduces trouble for him.
The painting paper shook slightly and then cald down.
Finding a nearby portal, Xu Huo arrived near Haiyun Technology’s headquarters.
The level of protection at tech companies is different from ordinary companies. From afar, you could see the environnt-following barrier over the company building, making it nearly impossible to spy on the interior from outside. Every employee entering and exiting practically wears an emotion monitor, which not only checks the employees’ psychological state to prevent internal incidents but also serves as an alarm. In ergencies where there’s no ti to report, the device quickly decides whether to contact the nearest ard institution based on their emotional state.
So it’s very challenging to infiltrate or cause disruptions in the workplace.
However, due to Zone 008’s high moral standards for ordinary people, to avoid rebound, wearing emotion monitors isn’t mandatory after work hours. Besides, psychotherapy is also a popular industry here, and people won’t discriminate against those undergoing psychological counseling.
Xu Huo squatted outside for several hours, tailing two won who went together to see a psychotherapist to a psychological therapy institute.
The two won had booked appointnts in advance, one reserved machine treatnt, and the other booked with a psychotherapist. When the latter entered the treatnt room, Xu Huo was already sitting on the chair and looked up to invite her to sit.
"Isn’t Doctor Jiang working today?" the woman asked as she sat down, "Are you a new doctor? You’re quite good-looking, can I ask for you all the ti in the future?"
Xu Huo gave an apologetic smile, "I am not yet a formal employee and don’t have a fixed work schedule. However, whether I can stay on depends on the client’s satisfaction level."
The woman smiled coquettishly, "Then let’s get started."
The woman’s file showed she had certain psychological issues and didn’t want to communicate with machines, so she always t with a psychotherapist. After she lay down, she first stated her request, "I’ve gone through so things lately and can’t find inner peace. Because of this, I haven’t slept well for several days, and I hope to have a good night’s sleep tonight."
Xu Huo instructed her to close her eyes and lean back on the lounge chair, then moved his chair closer to her, albeit maintaining a two-ter distance. He gently said, "Inner secrets may be difficult to express verbally, but they don’t have to be. To find inner peace, the only thod is to balance one’s emotions."
"I am setting a scene for you, try to see if you can find your inner scale."
"Suppose you’re on a ship now. Imagine the size and scale of the ship, its setup, the environnt it’s traveling in, and who is on board according to your current imagination, visualize it one-to-one."
"Once that’s complete, you can begin to imagine your state on the ship."
