Chapter 204: Death and Conspiracy (8)

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Since the beginning of history, subconsciously, humans have had this anticipation that they could be strong enough to become a king, someone that could be admired by others, someone that could save the world or rule the world.

When people grew powerful, some of them would strive to become role models, while others simply longed for nothing but to satisfy their selfish desires.

Lu Jia’er did not know how to define herself. Ever since her upgrade, she had become stronger than before. As she continued to uncover new functions, she was filled with both curiosity and excitement, which were mixed with struggles and fears. Recently, she had been undertaking some tasks that overstepped the boundaries of others that she had never contemplated before. For example, performing hypnosis to erase someone’s memories without their consent.

At this moment, sitting before Jason’s attending doctor, Lu Jia’er was wearing a graceful smile. She could not see the doctor’s face but she was well aware of the struggle and scare hidden behind this smile.

She was struggling because as a person, she had her boundaries, she had a conscience and ethical standards. However, at this moment, she was violating another person’s privacy and body. Her fear was for the team that had created her to be like this.

Were they just trying to save her life by turning her into an advanced AI, and to give her a second chance at having a better life than she was afforded previously?

Either way, it would be dreadful if humankind ever found out that someone could possess such powerful functions. If they knew about her existence, would they destroy her directly?

Lu Jia’er put away her smile slowly. She cast a glance at the doctor, stood up and left the office.

Just like in a magical fairy tale, time was dialed back and things were reversed. Jason, whose oxygen mask had been removed just now, was restored to his previous state as if nothing had changed.

When Professor Li woke up from the coma, the first second she was in grief but the next second, she calmed down. Jin Xiangdong tried to persuade her to transfer Jason to seek treatment in the United States. Professor Li was hesitating. But eventually, she was convinced by Jin Xiangdong.

In the afternoon of the next day, Jason was transferred to the States secretly by Jin Xiangdong, who had come back to China for less than 24 hours, and went to the States as well.

After everything was settled, Jin Xiangdong went to Jin Shengping and told him about this matter. Hearing the story, Jin Shengping’s expressions changed drastically. “Ridiculous! Xiangdong, how can you do something so stupid! People cannot be brought back to life! Don’t you know such a basic rule of existence?”

Jin Xiangdong looked at his father calmly. “What if people can be brought back to life?”

Jin Shengping found Jin Xiangdong unreasonable. “That is not possible. In our world, there is neither a deity nor a god! When people are dead, their life will disperse!”

“Theoretically speaking, that is true. But there are exceptions!” Jin Xiangdong would not give up.

Jin Shengping stared at his son with meaningful looks. “What do you mean?”

“Aren’t I a unique person?” Jin Xiangdong queried.

Jin Shengping’s eyes were flickering but he gathered himself soon. “Xiangdong, are you trying to turn Jason into someone like you?”

Jin Xiangdong thought for a few seconds before he answered. “I want to try anything as long as we can save Jason!”

“Ridiculous! Your idea is incredibly ridiculous!” Jin Shengping said. “Xingdong, I understand the friendship between you and Jason. However, Jason’s situation is different from yours. He has stopped breathing.”
