Zhou Mingrui didn't expect that he would have to study hard after traveling through time. And the thing you study hard is still a binary language. Fortunately, he has some understanding of the basic principles of computers, so it is a little easier to understand. He only needs to memorize these permutations and combinations.
"What others only need to learn once, I need to learn twice. It feels like a waste of time." Although he thinks this way, Zhou Mingrui is still not able to do what Klein does when the other party controls his body. stay awake.
In fact, it's not that he can't do it, but that he didn't give control of his body to Klein when he was awake. Because he was sleepy, he needed to rest. When he needed sleep, he gave up control of his body. Naturally It's impossible to know what's going on outside.
Just like Klein needs a period of time to rest during the day, he also has no ability to perceive the outside world.
This is determined by the physiological structure of the human body. Normally, if the human body does not sleep, it will not have too harmful effects. What really needs to rest during sleep is the brain, and even if it is built with the digestive system The thinking center of the body, like the brain, needs to rest through a sleep-like state.
But there are animals in nature that basically don’t need sleep. For example, dolphins can let their left and right brains work in turn, and now Klein and Zhou Mingrui are in a similar state. The thinking centers of the two people work in turn, but they both also need sleep, but the sleep time is staggered.
Zhou Mingrui is still in charge now, so he doesn't know that he can actually observe everything happening outside as a subsidiary consciousness in his body.
He looked at the content in the book and tried hard to keep up with Klein's progress. He studied until the afternoon and finally caught up with the progress. Looking at the time, it was almost time to get off work, so he followed the previous appointment with Dunn Smith. Location, took the subway and rushed there.
When he came out of the subway station and walked around a lot until he came to a relatively classically decorated neighborhood, he saw the destination of his trip. On the vertical sign, there were the words "Black Thorn Security Company" written in large characters.
Zhou Mingrui: ""
Are all the extraordinary people playing this fancy nowadays? When he stepped inside, he saw a brown-haired girl reading a newspaper at the front desk. There was a bag of coffee brewing in his hand, and a plastic bag of instant coffee could be seen on the table.
Zhou Mingrui: "..."
He estimated that the entire lower class of society has now switched to drinking instant coffee. The once classical style has now been destroyed by these cheap industrial products of the Mohist family. Only the nobles can continue to insist on their style. .
The brown-haired girl panicked when she saw him, and quickly put down the newspaper in her hand: "What can I do for you?" This was an unprofessional reply. It seemed that she almost never received customers. She wanted to come to this security company. I'm afraid business is not very good on weekdays.
Zhou Mingrui said that he was invited by Dunn Smith. It is said that he has the opportunity to join as a civilian employee. The girl became happy when he heard this. After all, Klein's body is still somewhat handsome. He can recruit such a person here. The handsome guy is naturally a good thing.
"I just forgot to introduce myself. My name is Luo Shan. I am also a clerical staff here, responsible for reception." After saying that, he took Zhou Mingrui to the office and found Dunn Smith.
The captain was rummaging through a document on the table at this time. He forgot where he had put the document. This was a rare thing for extraordinary people, because extraordinary people would more or less be aware of their own affairs. His memory, understanding ability, etc. have been strengthened to some extent, even if not much. It is probably rare to be as forgetful as him.
However, Luo Shan was not surprised at all. Her captain was like this. Apart from being quite reliable in business matters, he was always messing up.
He looks like an old man, and some people even think that his catchphrase is actually: "One more thing!"
"Have you made your decision? I must remind you that joining us may not be safer than continuing your normal life. After joining us, although there is a probability of becoming a member of the extraordinary in the future, you will also need to face many horrors. Not many of us can retire normally and safely."
"I have decided that it may not be safer than continuing my ordinary life, but I hope to be able to hold my own destiny in my own hands. If I encounter any danger and die, it will be because I am unable to protect myself. yourself instead of regretting not taking the opportunity before.”
Dunn looked at him deeply, then nodded: "Okay, then you sign this document first. Although the threshold for becoming an extraordinary person is now much lower, you can still only serve as a civilian employee for the time being. After a period of Only after the test of time, or if you perform meritorious deeds, can you become an extraordinary person and join the Nighthawks team."
Zhou Mingrui signed another entry contract this time. His next work will be relatively leisurely. Moreover, during the period when he first joined the company, he was not focused on work but on relevant training, which is to learn a series of things about the extraordinary world. Basics, and then he will continue to work here as a civilian until he understands these.
After he signed the employment contract, he finally returned to a calm and regular life in the next few days. His sister was a little worried that if he worked during the day and part-time at night, he would be tired and have physical problems. Although she was a girl from science and engineering, she still tried to persuade him: "It doesn't matter even if you don't pass the interview. This new job you found is already good." Even if there is a gap between your income and your ideal job, don’t use this method to make up for the difference. The money you earn from your current job will be used to treat diseases when you get older."
"Don't worry, I have been in contact with the Mo family. I participated in an experimental project organized by them. I can't say what it is specifically. I signed a confidentiality agreement, but they can guarantee that while my body is full of energy, I will not If they cause too much harm, they will be responsible for any physical damage to the end. You should believe what the Mo family says."
After hearing this explanation, Melissa stopped talking. At first, the Mohist family's words did not have much credibility, but when the Mohist family said they would build a new urban transportation system for them, the road was widened. And it was established, saying that a power grid would be laid for them, so the telephone poles and underground cables were pulled out, saying that the prices of agricultural products would not skyrocket with the increase of industrial products. Striving for the lowest welfare for the workers, all these were realized, and more and more people believed what the Mohists said.
And now their words are even more credible than the government's statements. Trust is built up little by little.
So the two took turns controlling the body. During the day, they went to the Blackthorn Security Company to learn knowledge about the extraordinary world. After get off work, Zhou Mingrui learned basic electronic languages to catch up with Klein's progress. At night, when he went to bed, it was Klein. Control your body and work the night shift at Mo's house.
Time passed day by day, and in such a regular life, no accidents happened. No one followed him, and no one tried to assassinate him.
It was not until five days passed that the two of them finally learned the basic electronic language, and then they took the Mo family's test. However, Klein was obviously better at learning than Zhou Mingrui, and this test was conducted during the day.
Zhou Mingrui tried it and found that he could also let Klein control his body during the day. And after he tried it, he discovered that after he handed over control of his body, if he was not asleep, he could see and hear things. It's just that I can't control my body.
Nighthawks have holidays on weekends. Although they are on shift leave, among the civilian staff this week, Klein does have his turn to take leave. He can just go to the Mo family to complete the test. The Mo family is very efficient. As long as he can pass the test, he will be able to complete the test on the same day. You can start advanced training immediately.
Klein controlled his body and took the subway to the Mohist headquarters with ease. He took the elevator to the fifth floor. The sixth to ninth floors were the library, and the fifth floor was an area specifically used for exams. All major types of exams were held. It is held here. On average, each type of exam will be held here for three rounds a day. In each round, up to thirty people will participate in the exam. The staff will work here from six in the morning to ten in the evening. The shift system, two shifts, is to improve work efficiency. After all, there are too many people applying for the assessment. Without this level of efficiency, too many people would queue up to wait for the exam. It is a huge waste of social resources.
Klein's appointment was for the noon round of exams. He arrived half an hour early, sat on the waiting chair and took out a book to review. Many people waiting for the exams were also like him, and the large screen above his head would display There were thirty numbers in each round. When it was his turn, he entered the examination room. Klein saw three numbers displayed on the big screen at the same time, including himself.
So they quickly entered the examination room. The examination venue was three very well-soundproofed cubicles. The three of them each entered one of them. Each person had ten minutes. They needed to read out a 1,500-word essay within ten minutes. Articles, articles are all written in digital language. This binary language is densely arranged on the paper. It looks like a mosaic. A piece of paper is full of small black dots, which may even trigger trypophobia. disease.
Although Klein was a little nervous, he was already very familiar with the meanings of these symbols, so he read aloud quickly. This put a certain test on personal speaking speed, but as long as he could maintain fluency when speaking normally, it would basically be fine. Because of your own speaking speed, it affects the results of the assessment.
If you have a person who is born with a stutter, you can apply for non-verbal assessment content. Such an exam is to read an article and then give the answers to the questions just like reading comprehension questions, but it does not require analysis like reading comprehension. What the author means is that you only need to prove that you understand every word of this article. It doesn't matter whether you can understand the hidden meaning that the author wants to express. After all, this is not Chinese language. The test here is just whether you can read or not.
Although Klein was a little nervous, he was quick to talk. He quickly read through the 1,500 words, and there were actually two minutes left in the assessment time.
"Well done. You are the most fluent I have seen among the candidates in this round. Next, I will say the words. There are eight buttons in front of you. Press the buttons according to the words I said to form the corresponding characters. Not only do you need to be able to recognize the combination of these symbols, but you also need to be able to write or express them. Don't worry, the rhythm of dictation will not be too fast. There are a total of twenty-five characters. If you can spell more than twenty correctly, you will pass. .”
Klein concentrated on using the fastest speed he could. After inputting characters one by one through the strange keyboard in front of him, the examiner also showed a satisfied expression on his face. All the characters were entered correctly. The memory and understanding ability of the candidates applying for the assessment have reached the standard, and they have reached excellent standards.
"Your results are beyond expectations. According to regulations, you can participate in advanced training and apply for mechanical implantation of an artificial spine."
"What is a mechanically implanted artificial spine?" Neither Klein nor Zhou Mingrui understood, but the examiner did not explain it to him. Instead, he asked him to ask at the service desk. He also had to seize the time to receive the next batch of candidates. .
When the two people who were one body and two souls came to the service desk, they inquired and learned that the initial version of the Mohist promotion rules they saw was only a general framework. For details, they needed to borrow a tome from the library to check.
Of course, you can also consult directly with their relevant staff: "If you have time, I suggest you borrow that book and read it, so that you can better plan for your future life, just like this choice. It is very important to you. Fortunately, you have reached the standard of excellence, otherwise you may have missed this opportunity.
There are two ways to implant artificial spine. One is to use extraordinary power to directly transform your body. In this way, after implanting an artificial spine, most of your body's human abilities will be retained, including getting married and having children, but you will lose the ability to become an extraordinary person. opportunity.
This is the most common implantation method and the most cost-effective. It only requires you to take a car to Backlund. If you are lucky, you can come back on the same day.
The so-called mechanical implantation is to perform a real operation on you, using all realistic and natural science-level technologies to help you complete the implantation of the artificial spine. The cost in this aspect is quite high, so it can be said that it has passed. Only one in a thousand people who take the digital language assessment can obtain this qualification, because the cost is really high, and there are only a few people in the entire Mohist family who are capable of performing this kind of surgery.
The biggest advantage of mechanical implants is that your body is not affected by extraordinary power, and you can still become an extraordinary person like a normal person in the future. Here is the application process for mechanical implants. The assessment content does not conflict with the normal promotion process. It just postpones the process of implanting an artificial spine. "
