Chapter 71 Severe Punishment of Tu Hengyu
"Oh, mom, I'm afraid of the dark!"
Under the ruins, a little girl was sobbing, her body trembling with fear.
"Don't cry, baby."
"Someone will come to save us soon."
In the dark, cramped and cold corner, every minute and every second of waiting was so long. I couldn't count the number of times I had this conversation.
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly felt the wall she was leaning on vibrate.
rumble rumble
The sound of machinery can still be vaguely heard.
The woman was pleasantly surprised.
Boom——
The next second, a thick and powerful mechanical arm moved away the collapsed wall.
Bright sunlight pours in.
Two orange figures walked in under the sunshine and walked straight towards the mother and daughter huddled in the corner, as if gods descended from heaven.
"How are you doing?"
"I'm fine, save my daughter first!"
the woman said nervously.
"The structure here is very stable." The orange figure said gently, "Don't worry, we will leave together."
The rescue team helped the mother and daughter into the sunshine.
Similar scenes occurred in many places.
With the help of advanced equipment, people are being rescued from the rubble every minute.
When he thought about the place where his ideas were exhausted, he picked up the enamel cup, took a sip of the imported milk kindly sponsored by Tu Hengyu, the son of the richest man, then shook his eyebrows and continued to plunge into the quagmire of thoughts.
clatter! clatter! clatter!
"Why should you punish me severely?"
Tu Hengyu said while typing the code: "I'm already dead, they won't dig me out."
Digital Tu Hengyu has done all kinds of bad things, what does it have to do with me, Tu Hengyu?
What an injustice!
Ma Zhao glanced sideways at Tu Hengyu.
He thought to himself that the degree of brain development and the hormone content in the body would affect personality. Tu Hengyu's body is currently only two years old, and his personality is much more cheerful than in his previous life.
Ma Zhao said seriously: "Don't worry, you are a minor, they can't do anything to you."
His mentality has also become much younger.
Suddenly, there were footsteps outside the door.
Hao Xiaoxi opened the door and walked in. She asked, "Two professors, have the hard drive to imprison Digital Tu Hengyu been ready?"
Tu Hengyu remained silent.
"Here I am."
Ma Zhao opened the drawer and took out a brick-like storage device with great effort.
This is Digital Tu Hengyu’s cell.
After the digital map Hengyu went through MOSS calculations, the electronic volume became larger than the rhodium, cesium, and beryllium learning materials, and it was enough to fill an entire cabinet server when fully expanded.
Even after multiple compressions, the final data size is staggering.
The storage light flashes green.
This memory has an independent computing unit, and the digital map Hengyu is sitting behind the bars carefully designed by Ma Zhao, waiting for his trial by the coalition government.
"Director Hao, what are you going to do with him?" Tu Hengyu paused, "I'm just curious, nothing else."
Digital Tu Hengyu is his digital life. In a sense, it can be seen as him in another dimension, so he wants to know what the next fate of Digital Tu Hengyu will be.
Hao Xiaoxi hesitated.
The trial of Digital Tu Hengyu has not yet begun, and a lot of information is not suitable for disclosure to the public.
But considering Tu Hengyu’s special status,
Hao Xiaoxi considered it: "We are ready to destroy him, but there are still some differences on his definition."
Tu Hengyu pursed his lips.
Although he had long expected that Digital Tu Hengyu would not end well, after receiving Hao Xiaoxi's confirmation, he still felt an indescribable sense of disappointment.
It's not that he sympathizes with his digital life.
I just always feel uncomfortable.
Ma Zhao asked: "What disagreement?"
"According to scientists from various countries, although the digital figure Hengyu is just a string of data, he actually has the same autonomous consciousness as human beings and is a living entity with personality."
Hao Xiaoxi said slowly.
"That is to say."
"We should try him as a human being."
She showed a helpless smile.
"But if Digital Tu Hengyu is tried as a human being, it means that the coalition government recognizes that digital life is also life. This will definitely cause a great storm of public opinion and even rekindle people's reverie about digital life."
"There are huge problems in all aspects."
"This is something we cannot accept for the time being."
Ma Zhao nodded,
He used to be the director of the Institute of Digital Life of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. He has a good understanding of digital life and knows that digital life has great social controversy.
The controversy mainly centers on ethical aspects.
If you keep cutting, it will become messy.
Hao Xiaoxi continued: "But if you don't treat Digital Tu Hengyu as a human being, then Digital Tu Hengyu is a virus, and we should hold those who spread the virus accountable."
She looked at Tu Hengyu.
Tu Hengyu's little face suddenly froze.
Ma Zhao showed a thoughtful expression and nodded: "Then Tu Hengyu must be held accountable. After all, it is his digital life, and he uploaded it to 550W."
Tu Hengyu couldn't squat anymore.
He suddenly stood up from the chair and tried to defend himself: "It was him who did it, not me."
Clumsy and cute.
Hao Xiaoxi couldn't help but laugh. Looking at the two-year-old child with forty years of working experience in front of her, she suddenly felt a bad taste.
"If convicted of this crime," she said, holding her chin, "it should be life imprisonment, and no commutation or parole is allowed. He will have to stay in prison for the rest of his life."
"ah?"
Tu Hengyu was stunned for a moment.
"Teacher Ma, what did you say?"
Tu Hengyu looked in disbelief.
Ma Zhao had no expression on his face.
"You can't arrest me!" Tu Hengyu said anxiously,
Tu Hengyu was a little impatient.
He uploaded his digital life at that time to enter his password and help the Beijing root server go online.
Who knew his digital life would become like this?
If he is really sentenced, his name will no longer be called Tu Hengyu from now on, but his name will be changed to Sai Dou'e!
"Professor Tu——"
Hao Xiaoxi smiled and said: "I never said I would arrest you. Don't be nervous. We will hold a press conference in a few days and you can take a look at how to deal with it."
"That's good, that's good."
Tu Hengyu took a sip of milk to calm down his shock and squatted down again.
"Goodbye, professors."
Hao Xiaoxi walked out with the storage device: "There is a very important meeting with the coalition government. At the meeting, disaster relief plans, restrictions on the scope of use of intelligent systems, and some things related to planetary consciousness will be discussed."
