Wen Xu pursed his lips and said, "I'll find time to talk to Qiao Dian first. Qiao Dian has been a local boss here for so many years, he can help me find a shortcut!"

Gu Che nodded slightly, "In fact, these people are very loyal. After Qiao Dian came here, Kang Lai often brought people here to take care of the business, and also warned his subordinates to address Qiao Dian as Master Qiao. If you want to take over Kang Lai's power, it will be much easier with Qiao Dian's help."

Wen Xu leaned back in his chair and sighed, "I wonder what tomorrow's exchange will be about, and whether anyone will show up!"

"Do you need me to accompany you?"

Gu Che also knew that this exchange meeting was related to the mysterious force behind the scene, but he did not find out anything from President Mai Rui of the Children's Foundation.

All I can say is that the other party is hiding very deeply.

Wen Xu shook his head, "No need, I don't know the other party's purpose, and I don't want you to appear early!"

He had experienced being betrayed by the organization once in his previous life. If He Yexing was behind the mysterious force, he probably had bad intentions and was no different from the Zhishen Society.

If it was a trap, she would have gone in alone, no need for another one.

If Princess Shan and Wicks were behind the mysterious force, the situation would be better.

She really didn't have a good impression of He Yexing, so there was no need to mention the things that happened in the past.

What matters most is that after the zombie virus broke out, the four of them worked hard to complete the mission, but were abandoned when they were in the most danger and needed the organization the most!

After dinner, Wu Bei called Gu Che. There were still many things to be done in the imperial capital regarding the brainwashing list of more than 3,000 people, and they needed Gu Che to arrange them.

The identity information of all the people on the list has been investigated clearly. Some of them can be taken away directly for investigation, while some have special identities. If they are taken away, it may cause panic, so we need to make careful plans.

Gu Che went to do something, and Wen Xu went into the bathroom with his phone.

She opened her mailbox, downloaded the file sent from PocketCHIP, found the folder of photos, and looked through them one by one.

Except for the two photos of old friends she had seen before, the rest of the photos and videos basically revolved around a woman.

Princess Shan.

Spanning half a century, from girlhood to old age.

There are photos with friends, intimate photos with lovers, and videos of children wishing each other a happy 60th and 80th birthdays.

Of course there are also family portraits of more than a dozen people.

The elderly Princess Shan was surrounded by her children and grandchildren in the middle, and the young Zhou Zhan stood behind Princess Shan with his hands on her shoulders.

Isn't this a kind of fate?

Many years later, Wen Xu used the technology taught by Princess Shan to repair the machine and preserved the precious photos she left in this world.

Perhaps it is destiny and guidance from some unknown source.

As for why Zhou Zhan gave her that card, it was unclear whether it was because of the mysterious organization or because of Princess Shan.

Wen Xu took a deep breath and suppressed his surging emotions.

Send the old-fashioned group photo of He Yexing, Wicks, Princess Shan, Gou Ji and Aris to the chat software of the four-member group.

When they saw this photo, Luo Feng and Ning Chu were both very excited and kept asking her where she got this photo.

Wen Xu also told them the information he knew.

The two of them had the same idea as Wen Xu. They were now certain that the so-called book-traveling that they had always found incredible was not as simple as they had thought.

Nan Chi never showed up while they were chatting. Wen Xu took a shower, picked up his phone and entered the chat interface. Nan Chi suddenly replied.

Nan Chi: Do you know the "Consciousness Immortality Project"?

Immortality of consciousness?

Wen Xu frowned slightly. She was not clear about this plan, but she understood it a little from the literal meaning.

Consciousness uploading and virtual world were proposed and studied by scientists in the early 2000s, but there has never been a real case of realization.

Experts have previously predicted that this might be achieved by 2045, but the zombie virus will strike by then.

If it was just the four of them, Wen Xu might not have thought of the virtual world and would have always believed that he was in a book and brought his brothers with him.

but now……

Probably!

Luo Feng: What is the immortality of consciousness?

Nan Chi: About ten years ago, I secretly hacked into He Yexing’s computer and found a hidden file. The so-called "Immortality of Consciousness" is to extract the consciousness of a human being after his death and upload it to a carefully crafted virtual world.

Nan Chi: That document was just a plan. I thought it was impossible to realize at the time, so I just glanced through it and don’t remember the details.

Wen Xu: What this means is that when a human is about to die, the brain undergoes certain processing and is "resurrected" in "digital form".

Luo Feng: It means that we are actually dead and are now living in a virtual world. Is that what you mean?

Wen Xu: Well, to put it simply, it is like we are in a constructed world and now we have become the NPC characters of this world.

Nan Chi: Yes, I think this is most likely the case, which is why I thought of that plan. I have never believed in the so-called time travel without any reason. If He Yexing and the others are there, there is a high possibility that their consciousness has been uploaded to the virtual world.

Ning Chu: If we are digital life, then are we alive? Or are we characters controlled by someone outside?

Luo Feng: If I were a created game character, and someone chose a young loli identity for me, I wish he would be impotent for the rest of his life.

Nan Chi: For us, this world is real, which is equivalent to living again. We have independent consciousness and no one can control our lives. It’s just that in the real world, our bodies have died, but our consciousness continues to survive in this virtual world.

Ning Chu: It is equivalent to our thinking being liberated from the imprisoned brain and transferred from the biological brain to a computing matrix to continue life.

Nan Chi: Well, if we are really being implemented into the “Consciousness Immortality Plan”, then we are now living in a “non-living body”.

Luo Feng: Just digital consciousness? Then are we still ourselves?

Wen Xu: Even if our previous biological thinking is copied to the computing matrix, you are still you, and I am still me. The previous world is a grave for us, and this place is a place of rebirth.

Wen Xu: I think there is no difference for people like us.

Ning Chu: There is one thing I can’t understand. If the world we are entering now is the world of the novel that Wen Xu is reading, why did He Yexing and the others also enter this world?

Luo Feng: Yes, we were the ones who picked up Kindel. I have also read two chapters of that novel, and the characters and world are indeed the same.

Luo Feng: It can’t be that He Yexing created this virtual world based on that melodramatic Mary Sue novel about a domineering boss!

Nan Chi: Let me first tell you my understanding and speculation. I have read some information before, which said that after the consciousness is uploaded, a machine will scan the information content in the experimenter's brain, and the information in the brain may affect the constructed world.
