Fooling Tomoko into being a system

"Hey...Brother Mo...Are these people stupid? They actually think that under the destruction of the world, they will agree to the public ownership of technology. Isn't this a mental illness?" Li Lin spread his hands and faced Mo Ciyu said.

"They're not fools, it's a matter of costs and benefits."

"If the United States and Russia really agree, that's great, and the interests of the United States and Russia will be harmed. If they don't agree, they can also put forward other conditions for the United States and Russia."

Mozi thought to himself that human beings are such hopeless animals and will never cooperate in the face of the end of the world, so we need the Lord's salvation.

"Will the United States and Russia agree to the other conditions they propose? I feel it is impossible."

Li Lin listened to Mo Ciyu's answer and felt tired that human civilization was still scrambling for power and profit even when it was facing destruction.Perhaps in their eyes, the power in their hands is more important than the distant doomsday.

Mo Ciyu smiled and said: "Of course not. It is more likely to raise another issue to divert the public's attention. For example, escapism is very good. Define it as an illegal behavior and use it to satisfy the public."

"Impossible. When facing a powerful enemy, escape is the first rule of survival. As long as I run far and fast, the enemy will not be able to catch up with me. Just to appease the public, do you want to condemn escapeism?" Li Lin said in surprise.

"The big shots above only care about the votes in the hands of the people," Mo Ciyu asked deliberately: "Xiao Lin, are you a fugitive?"

"Of course not." Li Lin immediately denied that he did not want to be randomly labeled as an 'escapeist' element.

"There is nothing to deny. There are escape tickets for sale outside. If you want to run away, you can buy one. Your descendants can board the ship and set off in a few decades." Moji joked.

"Brother Mo, don't cheat on me. I can eat enough for myself and the whole family is not hungry. How can I have money to buy escape tickets for my children? This ticket sounds more like cutting leeks on the stock market. The endless sales of folk legends are a lie." stuff."

"Haha..." A burst of laughter came from the security booth.

"Brother Mo...I thought of a fairy tale." Li Lin sighed to Mo Ciyu.

"what story?"

"Frog at the bottom of the well!"

"Human civilization and Trisolaran civilization are like the frog and the poisonous snake in the story."

"Your story is wrong. It's not a fairy tale. It's a fable. It's about the frog and the turtle."

"Uh... do as I say."

"Haha... no problem." Mo Ciyu also wanted to know what Li Lin thought of humans and Trisolarans.

A long time ago, there was a frog in the Heping Well. It had lived in the well since it was a child. There were no poisonous snakes in the well. The frog had been living a leisurely life with no worries about food and clothing. The frog thought it would live happily like this forever.

Suddenly one day, the frog found the poisonous snake standing by the well and said proudly: "Look how happy I am. I can eat when I want, sleep when I want, and I can jump when I feel like it."

The snake envied the frog and said, "The world outside the well is very big and the sky is very high. Would you like to come out and play with me?"

"No, I am the owner of this well. This well is warm in winter and cool in summer. Why don't you come in and play."

The serpent entered the Well of Peace.

At the end of the story, the frog was eaten by the poisonous snake.

"Humans are frogs, the three-body snake is a poisonous snake, and the earth is a well?" Mo Ciyu affirmed.

"Yes."

"Is there any special significance to this story?"

"Of course! It's also related to escapism."

Mo Ciyu said curiously: "Please interpret your story for me."

“Can a frog in the food chain defeat a venomous snake?”

"Of course not."

"Does the frog know that the snake wants to eat it?"

"Maybe it doesn't know, because it has been in the well for too long and has never seen a poisonous snake."

"The frog has never seen an eagle. It has never been out of a well and does not know that poisonous snakes are afraid of eagles."

"The frog in the well that cannot escape will eventually be eaten by the poisonous snake. If the frog jumps out of the well, it may be more dangerous, but at least there is a chance of survival. But if you stay in a peaceful well, you will inevitably die."

"In my eyes, escapeism is the last resort of mankind. Humans and Trisolarans are like ants and humans. According to the previous speculation, escapeism may be the last hope of mankind!"

Mo Ciyu thought thoughtfully: "Are you desperate?"

"No, the Trisolarans will not come for another 400 years. Before they arrive, the human civilization I am familiar with will have long since died, and so will I."

"You know the famous Ship of Theseus!"

"Of course I know, it's very famous." Mo Ciyu said.

"To me, human civilization today and human civilization 400 years from now are a bit similar to the Ship of Theseus."

"I am living now and have no obligation or ability to make choices for human civilization. I am waiting for how they will treat escapism. Maybe I already know the answer." This is more like Li Lin's angry words.

Li Lin complained: "Why don't you think about it from another angle? This is not an escape, but Columbus's discovery of the New World."

"In the end, I can only send my blessings to the frog in the well."

Li Lin thought in his mind that the earth had been monitored by sophons for a long time, and he just lied to Mo Ciyu and brought up the topic of 'escapeism'. Mo Ciyu's appearance showed that he was suffering from social anxiety. He had been like this before. How can you ask so many questions directly? It's better to be careful and fool him.

There are many people on earth who want to run away, and there are many people who want to buy ferry tickets.It shouldn't be a big problem to say this nonsense. Who cares about what you think if you are just a piece of shit?

On the earth monitored by sophons, it is very difficult for Li Lin to help human civilization. If he is not careful, he may face the same fate as Mr. Luo Jiluo. He will be on Eto's assassination list, and even worse, he will suffer from a three-body attack. Gene missiles.

But for Zhang Weiguo's kindness in saving my life, I still have to find a way to leave some gifts when I leave the Trisolaran Universe.

Time passed quickly during the chat, and Mo Ciyu returned home.

Trisolaris meeting room:

Head of state: "Based on Mozi's observations and the story he gave, it can be determined that he is not an earthling and is likely to know the laws of the dark forest."

Military Consul: "What to do? Kill?"

Agricultural Archon: "What if we kill and anger the civilization behind it? They have discovered human civilization and the Trisolaran civilization may have been exposed long ago. They may threaten us to hand over our technology. It is recommended to obtain more information before making a decision. .”

Technology Archon: "I agree to continue to observe, and now we have to find a way to deal with this problem."

The Trisolarans are in trouble.
