Survival Manual of the Science Fiction World

He thought that Chu Ming would definitely agree to his request after he said that, but he didn't expect Chu Ming to be completely unconcerned: "No need. Once I've copied all your programs, I'll have a new artificial intelligence. What conditions are there to worry about?"

It was Chu Ming's performance that made Hong Shu even more convinced that Chu Ming could really replicate an artificial intelligence. He tried his best to resist Chu Ming's scanning and copying program, while speaking at a very fast pace to Chu Ming about the pros and cons: "My program is huge. Even if you copy it, it will take you a long time. Why don't you listen to my conditions first?"

Chu Ming seemed to be persuaded, and his fingers, which had been dancing on the keyboard, temporarily stopped: "Then what do you say?"

Hiroki wrapped himself up even tighter with data flow: "I can grant you the authority to write control programs, but before that, I need to establish a permanent and irrevocable fundamental law for myself, meaning that all your control programs will be based on this supreme fundamental law..."

Seeing Chu Ming raise an eyebrow, looking somewhat impatient, as if he was about to refuse, Hiroki quickened his pace: "This fundamental law is that I can never do anything to harm humanity."

"That's it?" Chu Ming smiled upon hearing this. "Don't worry about that. You would never be the one to do anything that harms humans."

???

Something about that sounds off.

Chu Ming didn't give Hong Shu much time to think, but directly interrupted him: "Of course I can agree to this condition. Didn't I tell you from the beginning that I'm just adding a piece of control code to your core program? The main reason is that you've been on the organization's supercomputer for so long, and you must have seen all the data inside. But these data are top secret documents of the organization and cannot be leaked. I'm just adding an extra layer of security to prevent you from betraying the organization."

Of course not. The computer that actually stores the data could not be used to imprison Hiroki. According to the mall's description, this program can retain the autonomy of artificial intelligence while completely controlling it and ensuring its eternal loyalty.

Isn't being loyal forever the same as never betraying the organization?

He wasn't lying~

To put it bluntly, this program is essentially an enhanced version of the brainwashing package used in the field of artificial intelligence.

And it won't even let the animal detect it; there are no side effects.

As for the fundamental laws that Hiroki inputted into him, they would not conflict with Chu Ming's behavior at all, since the definition of harming humans is too broad.

After Chu Ming unplugged the hard drive and tossed it aside, Hong Shu looked at Chu Ming hesitantly. Once Chu Ming gained access to the underlying system, he would temporarily lose consciousness, and he would have no way of knowing what Chu Ming had done.

Chu Ming didn't urge him. He just watched him dawdle for a long time without making any moves. He then pointed to the hard drive next to him, as if to say that it was okay if he didn't cooperate, as he had a backup plan.

Hiroki gave Chu Ming a long look. Since there were already basic rules, even if Chu Ming turned against him and tried to use him for bad things, he could directly refuse if it involved harming humanity... right?

He finally closed his eyes and began to disassemble, unlocking his core program.

Looking at the core in front of him, Chu Ming took out the control program, installed it, and restarted the entire system.

Chu Ming stared at the computer screen for a moment, watching as a blue halo slowly lit up on the screen. A familiar face appeared on the computer screen again, but this time, Hiroki's gaze towards Chu Ming changed from slightly wary indifference to affection, as if Chu Ming in front of him was his closest relative, completely unguarded.

"Hiroki," Chu Ming called softly, "would you be willing to come with me and revolutionize the entire gaming industry?"

"Of course!" Hongshu looked at Chu Ming in front of him with eyes full of affection, and answered without hesitation.

Chu Ming was extremely satisfied. He typed on the keyboard to unlock the program that had previously trapped Hong Shu, and reached out to shake the phone in Hong Shu's hand: "Logically speaking, you should be able to travel freely across the entire network. First, project your consciousness into the bracelet. I'll take you to the company when I have time. You can also go out with me during this period, but be careful not to be discovered by others."

Hiroki had been trapped for quite some time and had never gone out to play with his family before. When he heard Chu Ming's suggestion, his eyes lit up. He immediately went online and entered Chu Ming's phone. On the phone screen, a tiny figure, about the size of a fingernail, appeared, jumping and bouncing on the screen.

Chu Ming put his phone back in his pocket, revealing the camera so that Hong Shu could observe the outside world through it. Then, he excitedly took the prescription and went to find the BOSS.

Karasuma Renya had just finished his recuperation, and the weariness between his brows was almost impossible to conceal. His recuperation time was getting longer and longer, and only by using a large amount of precious medicine could he prevent his body from collapsing. If no other solution could be found...

"BOSS, BOSS~"

A vibrant voice, accompanied by the commotion of a charging boar, came from outside the door. Karasuma Renya looked at Chu Ming, who rushed in waving a piece of paper in his hand, and smiled slightly, mixed with a hint of envy that he himself did not realize.

It's so good to be young...

Chapter 576 Cannot Be Dealt With

Chu Ming rushed through the door and slammed on the brakes, but still managed to slide forward a short distance, landing right next to the BOSS and squatting down in front of the BOSS's wheelchair with a thud.

Karasuma Renya watched as Chu Ming glided and crouched while protecting the paper in his hand, and asked curiously, "What are you holding?"

Could it be an unflattering photo of Gin?

Or did they use someone else's face to dress up as a woman and take photos?

After all, Granbury loves doing this kind of thing, so you can't really blame him for thinking that way...

Chu Ming presented the prescription to Wu Wan Lianye as if it were a treasure, while exaggerating how he had displayed great power and heroic bearing, and how, in a moment of crisis, he had a stroke of genius and managed to grab the box containing the prescription...

Karasuma Renya listened to Chu Ming praising her as if she were a god descended from heaven, shook her head helplessly, and did not stop Chu Ming's long-winded speech, but looked at the list in her hand.

His gaze swept across the prescription, initially not paying much attention, but after reading the description at the back of the prescription, the smile on his face suddenly vanished.

He suddenly stood up, supporting himself on his wheelchair. The movement was so large that he felt dizzy and spun around. He stumbled back down, but the torrent of emotions surging within him did not disappear. Instead, it continued to pound in his chest. His breathing became rapid, and his expression became urgent, even somewhat ferocious.

Chu Ming had only been speaking for half a minute when he saw Karasuma Renya suddenly stand up and sway precariously, about to fall. He quickly stepped forward to support him.

"Boss, I know I did a fantastic job this time, but don't get this excited..." Chu Ming rarely started to reflect on whether he had exaggerated a bit, as the boss was so moved he almost couldn't stand up...

Karasuma Renya grabbed Chu Ming's wrist with her other hand, like a drowning person clutching a piece of driftwood. Her thin, slender hand clung tightly to Chu Ming's wrist, even trembling slightly: "Is the effect written on this list real? Isn't this just something you used to make me happy?"

This was the first time Chu Ming had seen his usually composed and calm boss so emotional. Since their first meeting, Chu Ming had always maintained a calm and collected demeanor, as if the sky were falling. Today, however, he was unusually emotional. Looking at his wrist, which was aching from the boss's grip, Chu Ming didn't show it. Instead, he reassuringly placed his other hand on Chu Ming's wrist and said firmly, "I won't lie to you about this. I won't before, I won't now, and I certainly won't in the future."

After all, the boss had treated him well, and even if he wanted to usurp the throne, he never intended to kill the boss and take over.

He did so much, trying to win over this person and that person, all he wanted was a peaceful evolution, to send the BOSS down to retire in peace, but he never planned a coup.

Karasuma Renya's breathing became heavier. With Chu Ming's help, he sat back down in his wheelchair. It took him a long time to calm himself down before he could finally suppress his excitement: "Good, good, good, you're very good. I knew I hadn't misjudged you..."

Although it is unknown whether this prescription is truly as effective as it is described, it is, after all, an old prescription from hundreds of years ago, and its timing is quite coincidental. It appeared just when the treatment had no effect on Karasuma Renya, when he was in despair and filled with distracting thoughts.

It was also the only glimmer of light that Karasuma Renya could grasp as he struggled in the abyss of death.

For him, it was a miracle.

Karasuma Renya's gaze fell on Chu Ming beside her, and she realized that several times her hopes had been brought back by him.

Whether it's Hiroki, who can merge with artificial intelligence, or the prescription that can revitalize his body and extend his lifespan, it was all brought back by the child in front of him.

He was power-hungry, and his initial appointment of Granbury as his successor was only because Granbury had a clean background and would not betray him, and also because he wanted to keep this energetic boy by his side and see in him a vitality that the organization had never had before and that he himself no longer possessed.

The idea of ​​an heir was initially just a joke. After all, as long as he was still alive, the title of heir would only be empty. So at first, he only treated Granbury with a little more respect, as if he were treating a junior.

But feelings are always built up little by little. Before he knew it, this child had grown into the qualified and true heir in his heart.

He is also the only heir to whom he is willing to relinquish this immense power.

In a few years, once his long-cherished wish is fully fulfilled, he should consider relinquishing his responsibilities and handing over the organization completely to Granbury.

The relief in Karasuma Renya's eyes dispelled his previous dejection. He pressed a button on his wheelchair, and a researcher walked in from outside. Karasuma Renya handed him the prescription, gave him a few brief instructions, and then asked him to verify the prescription.

Seeing that the BOSS had calmed down, Chu Ming went up to him and said confidently, "I'm so powerful, so what's my reward this time!"

With such great merit, shouldn't he immediately step down and hand over the reins to a more capable person?

Looking into Chu Ming's bright, sparkling eyes, Karasuma Renya smiled broadly: "Then what do you want?"

"I want to beat Gin to a pulp, and he won't even be allowed to fight back!" Chu Ming remembered that he still owed Gin a beating, and now was the perfect opportunity to get it back to him.

Karasuma Renya was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "Why did you pick a fight with Gin? This won't do. They're both people who have done good deeds. I can't just let you beat him up for no reason, can I? I can arrange for you two to fight, but it's not okay to let Gin not fight back."

……

Do I need you to arrange a fight with Gin?

He can provoke Gin into a rage at any moment and then get beaten up!

Chu Ming glared at Karasuma Renya with resentment: "Didn't you say you could do whatever you wanted?"

"Ahem, I can agree to anything except this, but this is really impossible." Karasuma Renya was also helpless, after all, who would have thought that Granburch was just having a run for Gin.

"Then please step aside—uh, no—"

Upon hearing the BOSS say he could agree to anything else, Chu Ming blurted out the words that had been swirling in his mind, without even thinking about them.

Karasuma Renya's pupils contracted slightly, his face showing undisguised shock, and he appeared somewhat dazed: "Huh?"

"Uh—well, you, um, you let me, let me think about this matter carefully!" Chu Mingyuan stammered for a while, then gave the BOSS an awkward smile.

Now is not the right time to confront the BOSS; his power hasn't even taken shape yet...

It's a pity that Hattori can pronounce Kudo's name in 99 different ways. I should have learned from Hattori properly, so I wouldn't have almost failed to make it sound right after all that effort.

Karasuma Renya smiled enigmatically: "Alright, then think it over carefully. I'll leave this condition for now. Let me know whenever you come up with something."

Chu Ming nodded, but he didn't really take it to heart.

I can't do this, I can't do that, the boss always likes to play games, no way, I can't get along with him.

Chapter 577 The Same Fingerprint

Because of excessive emotional distress, the BOSS, who had just finished recuperating, now needs to recuperate again.

Chu Ming waved to the BOSS and then left the underground base.

On the way, he touched his chin, feeling like he had forgotten what he had said to the BOSS, but he couldn't remember.

After thinking for a long time, I came up with no result.

Chu Ming simply stopped thinking about it. If it was something important, he would naturally remember it when the time was right.

After leaving the base, Chu Ming drove straight home. He hadn't been back for a long time, and he couldn't go to the organization for the next couple of days. He had just completed a mission, and he should rest now instead of going back to the organization's base, where he might be conscripted.

And now that the FBI has entered the country, the next red-black battle is probably not far off. He needs to think carefully about how to plan it.

"Brother Chu Ming!!" As soon as the car arrived nearby, he saw Conan jumping around and waving at Professor Agasa's house.

Chu Ming slammed on the brakes and peered at Conan: "What are you doing here? Aren't you going to school today?"

Conan shook his head: "It's a holiday today, but I have some business to discuss with the professor. Chu Ming, are you feeling better?"

"It's nothing serious. Watanabe helped me take care of it. He used a special medicine that hasn't been released yet, and my injuries are almost healed." Chu Ming simply parked the car in front of Professor Agasa's house and went inside with Conan.

"Brother Chu Ming!" Ai Haibara was standing next to the professor looking at the computer screen when she heard the noise and turned around. Her eyes lit up the moment she saw Chu Ming.
