Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution

Chapter 859: Strange Video



Generally, when a video is opened, it should start playing from the beginning or from where it was last closed. But the content being played in this video now is something that Lin Shen had not seen before. That is, the content being played now is after Lin Shen had closed the video. The person in the video is still playing a game, but the game he is playing now is not the one Lin Shen had watched before; it was clearly a different game. "Smart Brain, has this video been playing in the background continuously?" Lin Shen asked Smart Brain. "The video was not playing in the background, it had been closed," Smart Brain clearly answered. "Then it's strange, if it wasn't playing in the background, how could it open at later content?" Lin Shen tried turning it on and off several times, but each time he opened it, the content was something he hadn't seen before and completely different from earlier. It seemed as though after Lin Shen had closed the video, the content still kept playing continuously. This feeling was not like watching a video but more like watching a live broadcast or a TV program. But the chip was clearly just a storage device containing some prerecorded videos; how could it possibly be a live broadcast, much less a TV program. "What exactly did you ask me to come here for? Just to show me this?" Tian Xin asked skeptically while looking at the holographic image. "Can you see the person in the image?" Lin Shen, setting aside his own confusion for the moment, pointed at the person in the image and asked Tian Xin. "Nonsense, my eyes aren't blind, of course, I can see there's someone in the image," Tian Xin retorted with a snort. Hearing this, Lin Shen brightened up; since Tian Xin could see the person in the image, did that not mean he had found another person who possibly possessed the Heaven Defying Bone Fire Seed? "Is this person a man or a woman, what do they look like?" Since the video had no sound, Lin Shen hadn't even determined the gender of the person in the image. "How should I know their gender or what they look like? My eyes can't remove the mosaic," Tian Xin's comment left Lin Shen stunned. "You can see the mosaic?" Lin Shen asked, looking at Tian Xin. "Nonsense, the mosaic is covering the person, who wouldn't see such a huge mosaic? What's wrong with you, why are you saying such strange things today? What's the deal with this video, who is the person being mosaic-censored?" Tian Xin inquired. "I just want to know who they are," Lin Shen replied. "With all due respect, bumpkin, you really have no idea, it's just a mosaic. Just have it removed; you can command Smart Brain to do it," Tian Xin disdainfully said. "It can do that?" Lin Shen genuinely hadn't thought that Smart Brain could handle such a task; it seemed he had missed something in the past. "Idiot." Tian Xin directly instructed Smart Brain, "Remove the mosaic in the video." "Initiating mosaic removal analysis," Smart Brain accepted the command and started using software tools to optimize the image. However, after a while, the mosaic in the image was not removed, instead, Smart Brain reported, "Unable to resolve mosaic removal, video error." "What a lousy Smart Brain, it can't even handle a mosaic; bring the video to my place, I'll use my Smart Brain to help you remove the mosaic, I have experience with this," Tian Xin felt an urge to smash the Smart Brain. Lin Shen closed the video and called the staff back, asking them to make copies of the videos. But despite the staff's efforts, the videos could not be copied and kept giving errors. "This R&D department you're using has such a lousy Smart Brain, you should replace it with a better one," Tian Xin remarked while waiting. "Because the lab was previously destroyed, we just recently replaced the Smart Brain; this model is already the latest one, the inability to copy has nothing to do with the Smart Brain, it must be an issue with the video itself or the storage device," the staff member speculated. "There are two options now, I can help you transcribe a copy, but we need to open the video and directly record the content, which will take as long as the video is. Another method is to print an adapter on this storage device, Mr. Lin Shen, then you can take it and play it on other Smart Brains." "Let's print the adapter then," Tian Xin promptly made the choice for Lin Shen. Lin Shen didn't mind, knowing the person in the video initially had a mosaic and did not carry the Fire Seed, he felt somewhat disappointed. If not for the strangeness of the video, wanting to figure out what was going on, he might have lost interest in watching it. The staff member used equipment to print an adapter on the chip, and Lin Shen and Tian Xin went to Tian Xin's residence together. Tian Xin opened the door to his study and woke up his newly purchased, top-of-the-line Smart Brain, connecting the chip to it. Tian Xin's Smart Brain surprisingly performed even better than the one in the lab; no telling how much he had spent on it. "Lu, open the first video," Tian Xin directly commanded the Smart Brain. "Alright, master, the video is open, mosaic detected, should I immediately correct and remove it in ultra-high-definition quality..." Lu, the Advanced Smart Brain, impressively even offered proactive services. "You really do have experience with this," Lin Shen said to Tian Xin with a half-smile. "Researching technology is quite normal," Tian Xin replied and commanded Lu, "Remove the mosaic." "Alright, immediately removing the mosaic..." Just as Lu was about to remove the mosaic, the person in the image disappeared. "He just walked out the door," Lin Shen informed Tian Xin, who hadn't noticed. The two waited for a while, but the person did not return, and Tian Xin grew impatient, directly ordering Lu to speed up the video playback. However, Lu also reported an error with the video, unable to increase the playback speed. Tian Xin tried fast-forwarding and rewinding, but still could not manipulate the footage; they could only watch it as if it were a still image. "It must be a problem with the storage device, or maybe the adapter the staff member made," Tian Xin speculated after fiddling with it for a while, as the video continued to play like a frozen image, unable to be fast-forwarded or rewound. "Let's look at the other videos," Tian Xin closed the video and went on to open another one. "There's nothing to see in the other videos, they're all just room scenes with no one in them," Lin Shen commented as Tian Xin opened another video. However, Lin Shen was stunned when he saw the content of the video; in the luxurious room shown in the video, the figure with the mosaic appeared. But when Lin Shen had watched it before, there had clearly been no one in this video. "Could it be that this video was also continuously playing after being opened, and it has finally reached a scene with someone?" Lin Shen wondered.
