The Mechanic

However, cross-dressing and pheromone sprays are not enough, they need to buy themselves an identity so that they will not trigger an alarm if they are caught by any camera. And the woman in black leather was a connection person Diego knew before. She was in charge of negotiating the price with them, and then notified the internal informants working in the population system, quickly searched the system for populations that matched their appearance, made some minor modifications, and then passed the verification information over, engraved it into a three-dimensional code and stored it in It will be sold to the database of the three of them.

This is what Zhang Xun did last time when he went to the city to collect data. It's just that with the support of Paradise Lost at that time, he didn't need to worry about the details of obtaining a fake identity. Zhang Xun is worried that Adam already knows that he has mixed into the ordinary world, and that there are traitors in the population system. If Adam had already communicated with Eden, would this method still work now?

James and Diego came over, and the woman in black had already stepped on a suspension-powered motorcycle and sped away, leaving only a blue light that hadn't had time to disappear.

"It's all arranged." James said, handing a round silver button-shaped device to Zhang Xun, "Your name is Shen Tong, born in Hangzhou, China, and settled in North America when you were sixteen. A college student in electrical engineering."

"College student?" Zhang Xun glared at James with an expression of "Are you crazy?" "Do you think I look like a college student?!"

"You're Asian and you look forever in your twenties." James winked at him with his right eye.

Zhang Xun was speechless, but even such an unreliable identity took a lot of trouble to get it. He attached the metal disc called "Button" to the back of his hand, and felt a delicate feeling of adsorption similar to being stuck.

Button is a portable database commonly used in the general world at present, which stores everyone's identity certificate, wallet, various people and people, people and Eden, various extended AIs, and messages sent and received with the network. It will bind to the owner after scanning the owner's facial outline for the first time and taking a DNA sample from the skin. Once it has not been in contact with the owner's skin for more than two days, all data will be destroyed by itself.

After the Button is activated, a layer of blue light floats on the surface. A line of phantoms are projected from the center of the circle, "Please wear smart lenses or dock 'chord'. If you want to turn on external projection, please say 'external'."

In order to protect personal privacy, few people will choose to let Button release the content that the owner is browsing. Some will opt for smart lenses, while others will opt for a device called a "chord" implanted in their heads. The smart lenses come in contact lenses and framed glasses, and when worn, they can be paired with a Button or any device with a screen. And the chord is a docking device attached to the sun xué, and the connected several thin nanometer transmission lines are connected to specific positions in the brain through a simple and quick operation. After completion, Button users can embed it on the docking device, so that people and Button can be integrated into one body. If you want to browse some web pages, you only need to use verbal instructions or concentrate on sending instructions with brain waves to open them.

Of course, Button was developed by Eden in the past ten years with the assistance of YOU, the world's largest electronic product company. Continents, almost everyone uses them. At that time, Zhang Xun asked James to bring back a damaged one, and together with Pan it took a lot of effort to disassemble it and study the structure inside.

Now it seems that Button and chords are probably the first foreshadowing for Eden and Adam.

In the future, if Adam's experiment in Paradise Lost is successful, Button will be his ship to pull the ordinary world into collective consciousness.

Zhang Xun and the other three all chose contact lenses. The moment the pairing was successful, he could see many things that did not appear in reality in his field of vision. Road signs, location introductions, 3D advertisements, and various colorful decorations on buildings make the originally simple and remote town suddenly become radiant. The fusion of 3D and reality can be achieved to the point of being fake, just like the beautiful woman with devil horns on her protruding head who walked near them, so real that she could touch it with her hand.

Only a faint blue halo at the bottom of the image can distinguish which is virtual and which is reality.

They quietly entered among these virtual images and real buildings and pedestrians, without causing any commotion.

This is the first time Zhang Xun has seen so many people from the ordinary world in nearly ten years. As he had heard before, 80 percent of them were women, but the gender identity was already very blurred. Some women were much stronger than him, even taller than James. The men I occasionally see are very thin and slender, with complicated and delicate clothes and bright colors. But most of them follow their wives or hostess obediently, and few of them go out on the street by themselves. There is always an instinctive humility in their demeanor, which is completely different from the male image that Zhang Xun is used to in Paradise Lost.

The streets managed by cleaning robots are spotless, without any fallen leaves or garbage in sight. The walls are white and flat, without any traces of graffiti, and there are flower beds that are maintained and managed extremely neatly but lack creativity. Everything presents a regular geometric form, without any abruptness or collision.
