Chapter 46 Humanity and Tea (Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets!)

Da Vinci opened his eyes wide, looking at the polite and gentlemanly old man before him.

The last time the Genius Club held a meeting in reality was in 2004. That was also the last time he saw Galileo, twenty years ago.

Although Galileo was wearing a mask back then, so his features and appearance couldn't be seen, he hadn't aged to this extent.

What exactly has Galileo been busy with these past twenty years, to have become so worn out?

However…

He wasn't in a position to talk about Galileo.

In 1982, when the two first met at the Genius Club, he was only a young man of twenty-eight.

In 2004, the last time they met, he was already middle-aged, nearing fifty; now, in 2024, another twenty years have passed, and he is in his twilight years, not much younger than Galileo.

Time, the years, are always so fair. "Yes."

Just as humanity and bloodthirst are on opposite sides, you sit by the stove, Da Vinci sits at the table, the two are clearly in the same living room, but separated by an impassable galaxy.

There were no flashing lights or alarms.

Of course, he saw Galileo's big movement of putting poison in the black tea. "It still comes from the question you asked at the last gathering." At the time, Galileo thought this question was completely incomprehensible. "He did it very discreetly." Perhaps that's why I came to find myself. As for Rhine exchanging information with me…

If Galileo put poison in the black tea, perhaps I would soften my heart and stay my hand, and not pull the trigger?

Inside the house.

He closed his eyes. Galileo was silent for a few seconds:

Then…

Da Vinci, leaning on a cane and wearing a top hat, stood upright on the grass outside, looking at the distant, magnificent Wuyi Mountains. "Insist on searching for 40 years?" "You clearly said you wouldn't kill me." The water boiled.

He saw the footprints in the snow leading to the hall. "I'm sorry, we'll adjust it immediately!" the old man said. He sighed softly.

"It looks like a game of passing the buck; it seems like everyone likes this robotics company that can't see a commercial future and only likes to burn money behind closed doors. But is that really the case? However!" He had no flaws."

This was an ambulance he had hired privately.

Sadness arose in his heart.

"Aftertaste of this flavor…" Having heard this.

It was as if the man with the light and clear voice from 40 years ago was sitting behind him, smiling and watching him: I looked at Qin Qianxi, who was sitting steadily on the wooden chair next to the stove, and said with a smile:

For a long time.

But in reality, Galileo laughed: Outside the door.

"Because of Rhine."

"With that idea, it was much easier to investigate. I quickly found the trick from Boston Dynamics."

His arms propped up against the ground. They already understood each other tacitly. The lab technician breathed softly:

Just blinking, silently watching Da Vinci.

The doctor asked again in a low voice: "It's bamboo sugar."

"Logically speaking, the world is so big, with such a large population, and I haven't been as high-profile as Musk, how could he find me so accurately in the vast sea of people?"

"So, at this month's gathering, he told me those inexplicable things."

He was waiting for the test results. Rather…

Rotating half a circle.

The fate of Genius Club members…

Da Vinci wasn't in a hurry to find him last month, and even knew my identity and address but didn't come, but now he rushed over so urgently after the gathering…

Rhine didn't say anything. "Don't worry."

Chewing.

"So, he wants to use robots…"

Qin Qianxi didn't lie, he indeed guessed my future plans, so the purpose of my asking about global disasters would naturally be easily guessed. Saw the old vintage car on the road in 1982…

On the stove, yellow and blue flames intertwined, constantly leaping, scorching the stainless steel kettle, burning a hazy patch on the surface.

Qin Qianxi turned his gaze away, looking at the increasingly hot kettle. Qin Qianxi opened his eyes.

Draining the cup in one gulp.

No movement.

Even if I directly asked whether the global disaster was related to Qin Qianxi, Rhine would laugh it off, saying he didn't understand. This was a bitterness more bitter than bitterness, so bitter that the tear ducts collapsed.

"I really thought a lot, thought about education, thought about culture, thought about propaganda, even thought about brainwashing…" Galileo asked:

The same for everyone.

The elderly body instantly lost strength and leaned backward!

Guessed wrong. He repeated it again.

The kettle made a shrill screech. "Sir…" "It hurts."

Qin Qianxi took out the black tea set, placed the teacup on the white porcelain plate, and then brewed a cup of fragrant black tea according to the meticulous steps, pouring it into the teacup. "At this month's gathering, he asked when the most recent global disaster occurred, and Einstein answered aftertaste. Rhine knew the answer, he told him."

He didn't turn around.

"With each mechanical dog that constantly fails, to the increasingly flexible and intelligent bipedal robots that come later… this company is a bit like Musk, failing repeatedly but never giving up." "I know."

You didn't need me to explain what happened next, right? He played capital games with very low-level tactics, and his identity was also hidden very discreetly. But like a goose leaving tracks in the snow, everything leaves traces, so not long after last month's gathering, I found out his true identity."

Galileo chuckled softly, shaking his head lightly: "It hurts."

Da Vinci's voice was hoarse:

"Tell you what Rhine talked to him about, Galileo."

"I think the taste of this black tea that he has been looking for for so many years, maybe the problem is with the tea leaves, is with the brewing technique, the reason aftertaste this kind of bamboo sugar unique fragrance."

Raising his head.

A muffled sound.

Everything…

He didn't even need to look. He finally understood.

So surely I and him exchanged intelligence, and the global disaster was not related." Would he go easier on me? "Then he's in for a treat today."

"Boston Dynamics is well-known in the robotics field."

The ambulance rear door and rear hatch opened at the same time, and two doctors calmly ran over to help Da Vinci:

Deliberate pause and white space. "I've always felt that I was hiding very well, I really can't imagine where I was caught."

Da Vinci put his white top hat back on.

"It's not possible, I saw it, it's brown, it's not sugar, and it's not the taste of brown sugar!"

Galileo smiled without showing any emotion:

"This is a very dreamy company, or it can be said that it is only a dreamy company. It started researching humanoid robots very, very early aftertaste. "Galileo, what kind of poison do you plan to use to kill yourself? Along the soft grass, towards the colorful Wuyi Mountains in the distance. "Slow! Slower, sir!"

"That's amazing. With such a large expenditure and consumption of robotics research, there is actually such a group of people who are researching entirely for dreams and cold love. So Boston moved

Behind the power company, who is so charitable, so cold-hearted, and such a non-return investment?"

"He said he wouldn't kill me." Bang! 1

The moment I saw Galileo.

Again saying that his plan was destined to fail;

Her widened eyes relaxed, and her sudden heartbeat gradually calmed down. Da Vinci took off his white top hat and placed it on the table. This topic, maybe we'll talk about it slowly aftertaste. So… then he put his hands flat in a cross and looked up at Galileo:

Qin Qianxi looked askance, looking at the white smoke gradually rising from the kettle spout: In the haze…

"Then why did he still come?"

Qin Qianxi had long anticipated such a scene today. Squeak… "He didn't directly invest in Boston Dynamics, and his methods were much brighter than anyone thought. In just ten years, the company was on the verge of bankruptcy several times."

"But I always can't understand. I can't imagine what kind of person can continue to be a role model, continue to change the original intention to guide people's ferocity." "What poison did he put in?" This is probably it.

I am confident that my future plans will no longer be used by myself. After Qin Qianxi heard this.

"Can I ask him to have a cup of tea?"

She took a step forward and slowly turned around, walking towards the tea cabinet… Hehe.

"What to talk about, that's a matter between me and Rhine." Then he held up the white porcelain plate with both hands. A clear breeze swept through the mountains.

Outside. He grabbed the thick-leaved Zhengshan Xiaozhong on the ground and stuffed the leaves into his mouth.

Speak."

Snap, snap, snap. "What he said is correct, in the vast world, it is indeed difficult to find a person." "Hehe, it seems that he guessed correctly." "Then why did he only come to find him today?" "How did he determine that Cai Yin knew?" "Hehe."

"Cai Yin I know the space-time particles, and I am likely to own the space-time particles, in that case I should be able to understand what he asked before is planning." Galileo opened his eyes wide. Abrupt braking sound.

At an angle that Da Vinci couldn't see, he quietly pinched some brown powder and rubbed it into the teacup. "He has been thinking about what his future plan is, wanting to know how he will guide humanity, and how he will use the power of role models to influence the world. 'But…

Saw the fair cheeks behind the mask of the great Qin Qianxi…

"If one day he knows his true identity, will he kill him?" Looking at Da Vinci sitting on the other side of the table, waiting for my answer. Gradually…

The urging was heart-wrenching. He was a little relieved:

Standing indifferently, the muzzle in Da Vinci's hand emitted white smoke. Saw the young boy with a graceful figure turn around and hand over the black tea…

Hand the teacup to Galileo:

Also said the most inexplicable sentence - so.

"Cai Yin I, must use your future plan as a bargaining chip to exchange information with him."

"Aftertaste I answer is doubt, can I still drink this cup of tea?" Da Vinci closed his eyes:

Da Vinci pursed his lips, and his nose exhaled a breath: behind him.

He looked at the fragrant black tea in Galileo's hand and said in a low voice: walked to the table and watched Da Vinci put away the pistol sitting opposite.

He picked up his head, his eyes twinkling, looking at Galileo: "Do you believe in humanity?" Turns out…

"Are you sure he wants to know?" Now that Da Vinci can appear here. A humble home it is.

"Da Vinci." She called out softly.

A large, anxious ambulance drove quickly, pressing on the muddy ground.

Who would have thought that the bargaining chip that Rhine exchanged information with himself was his future plan?

"This is an ancient handcraft in southern Dragon Country, which is different from the conventional sugar cane juice and beet fried sugar. Bamboo boiled sugar is still very rare in this era."

"Then he's looking at his reaction, it should be highly poisonous, right? Sulfide? Cyanide? Or arsenide? Is he so heavy-handed?" Then he turned around.

To be able to guess. He pursed his lips. Crack.

A dull gunshot!

The porcelain plate and teacup fell to the ground and shattered. But I didn't expect it.

"Please, be nice to the children." But I never thought.

"It seems that he is really determined to kill you, hahaha." "Is he afraid that he will accept it? Don't worry, he has been mentally prepared for a long time." Da Vinci first said that he saw through his plan one by one, four, four: click.

Thump.

Galileo was stunned in place and remained silent.

"Rhine asked him to stay after the gathering, presumably to tell him about him, right?"

An unexpected twist of fate.

After all.

He said in a deep voice: The old man closed his eyes tightly.

Qin Qianxi walked to the tea cabinet, took out a bucket of tea, and chuckled softly:

Galileo lowered his head, took the teacup with both hands, still leaving the cool of the tea just now. Gastric lavage and bowel cleansing were carried out at the same time.

The doctor noticed that the old man's closed eyes were filled with tears.

"That taste, I have really been looking for it all my life, the taste is exactly the same as that day."

Qin Qianxi's reasoning process was all accurate, but the results were all accidentally guessed correctly. In the ambulance bay in front, there were the most advanced gastric lavage and bowel cleansing equipment.

"This kind of sugar has low sweetness, is not pure enough, and basically has no commercial value and use value. However, sugar boiled from bamboo has a unique fragrance, which is very light but very unique."

" "Then do you believe in humanity?" The lab technician said: That's it. Da Vinci closed his eyes. The recent transcoding is serious, which makes us more motivated, updated faster, and troubles you to move your little hands to exit the reading mode. Thank you

Da Vinci was supported down by the doctor like a puppet. I felt that the whole world was dazed. I didn't know where I was lying, I didn't know what instruments and equipment were inserted into my mouth, and I didn't know what the doctors were shouting aftertaste. "I really didn't expect that behind his such a cool plan, he would use such cold things as robots."

Galileo understood everything.

Now that Da Vinci admitted it in front of himself, it meant "That's right."

Da Vinci's smile froze on his face, his mouth hanging in the air.

Galileo's body lay on the broken porcelain pieces, his blood staining them red, crystal clear. Da Vinci choked.

"It's sugar."

It shouldn't be.

She had already seen the ending of the story. Making tea and brewing tea, but not luxurious at all. "How did he find me?" I really want to know.

Da Vinci hooked the handle of the teacup with the index finger of his left hand, picked up the black tea, and held it with both hands. Beside the table.

Galileo took a large pot of water, put it on the stove, and quietly waited for the water to boil. Da Vinci smiled:

She just wanted to use global disasters to establish the authority of the perfect role model robot and reshape the world's civilization pattern.

In these weeds, there are several wild Zhengshan Xiaozhong that no one has picked. Galileo stood up and took off the kettle. Is

Qin Qianxi's voice was very soft: Wasn't that deliberately shown to me?

"Should he be called persistent? Or perverted?"

You probably didn't want to kill yourself, just wanted to confuse yourself and then run away, right? Da Vinci smiled in relief:

"That's why he didn't plan to come to him at all." He said softly:

"But there is no unique occasionality. Every time the company is about to go bankrupt, some capital giants will come forward to acquire it. In 2013, Google's parent company acquired the company; in 2017, Sakura Country's SoftBank company acquired it again; in 2020, Bang Country's Hyundai Motor Company was ordered in danger and acquired the company that was on the verge of bankruptcy again." "Plop.

From Da Vinci's perspective, such speculation is also reasonable.

"He told him that I have never drunk a similar taste to the cup of black tea in Brussels in 1982."

"This company has encountered unimaginable ease and failure on the road to developing robots, but the amazing thing is that the company has never thought of giving up. In the end, it relied on decades of tireless efforts to become the world's leading and most technologically advanced robotics company." "Of course it's black tea." "Mr. Qin Qianxi."

"Since he found out his true identity and knew where he was aftertaste last month, why did he have to wait until today to come to him?" It turns out that's it."

Also smiled heartily, slightly picked up his crutches, and pointed to the houses surrounding the courtyard next to him: My voice was as calm as it was in the Genius Club: At the gathering the day after tomorrow. Take a deep breath.

It was as if he had returned to the snowy winter of 1982, when a introverted and generous guy was facing a cheerful and stiff woman with a loud and sweet voice handing over a cup of black tea, stammering and at a loss.

So, the occasionally cautious I had already prepared a gastric lavage ambulance. As if he was 40 years younger.

"What's more… during those 40 years, we met almost every month, chatted, and knew more about his information and ideas."

The red flames spread out from the stove, and as the kettle lost its coolness, the whistling sound gradually subsided and became quiet.

"It's not special sugar."

Galileo stared into Da Vinci's deep eyes.

"He didn't make any preparations to see him. Even for the occasionally solitary him, he would rather communicate with him wearing a mask and chat with him about everything in the Genius Club." He took one step at a time, which proved that he was correct.

I believe Rhine exchanged Turing's questions with me for intelligence on "global disasters."

Galileo raised his head:

I lost my balance, my knees touched the ground, and my whole body knelt on the ground. Da Vinci felt a burning sensation in his mouth, but still smiled very contentedly:

Why did Qin Qianxi make the movement of putting sugar so sneaky, so sneaky but let me see it

Da Vinci stretched out his withered fingers and pulled the porcelain plate behind him. Da Vinci also raised his head, looking at Galileo's eyes and sunny: "But if…

So far.

I raised my head, and the deep eye sockets blinked with eyes full of years, and said slowly: "It wasn't until last month, when he asked about energy issues, and Einstein blurted out that the micro-nuclear battery was invented successfully that I suddenly realized." "I want another cup." Discovery

Looking at the kettle that was gradually cooling down on the stove.

"Don't look at me as the last one to join the Genius Club, I obviously know a lot about your information. At least, he left him behind after the gathering, which means he has bargaining chips that he is interested in."

"Even if it's Zhengshan Xiaozhong, I've certainly tried it. Over the years, I've drunk all the black tea in the world, that's right, it's all, but none of them have the nostalgic taste of that year."

It doesn't care about the leakage of my future plans.

The two doctors immediately adjusted the intubation. This should be much better, but they found that the old man was still crying non-stop.

""That taste, I have really been looking for it for a lifetime, the taste is exactly the same as that day.""

Qin Qianxi's reasoning process was all accurate, but the result was unexpectedly all guessed correctly. Outside the rescue cabin in front, there are the most advanced gastric lavage and bowel cleansing equipment.

"This kind of sugar has a low sweetness, is not pure enough, and basically has no commercial value and use value. However, sugar boiled from bamboo has a unique fragrance, which is very light but very unique."

" ""Does he still believe in humanity?"" The lab technician said: That's all. Da Vinci closed his eyes. The recent transcoding is serious, which makes us more motivated, updated faster, and troubles you to move your little hands to exit the reading mode. Thank you
