I Picked a Mobile From Another World - Chapter 28
Episode 28 [Eve (2)] When
Eve’s translated text was spread on the Internet, portals, bulletin board administrators, and search programs recognized Eve’s post as a rumor.
They immediately reported it to the police and deleted the post.
However, a while after it was deleted, the post was re-posted under a different name, and the police were unable to find out who posted it.
After a series of battles, Eve eventually won.
The post she left was seen by countless people on the Internet, and everyone started talking about it.
When things got to this point, the media and individuals eventually came forward.
Fearless small media outlets began reporting, and people also posted what they saw and heard.
Families of captured mutant humans posted posts, and soldiers who fought mutant monsters left posts.
And eventually the flood exploded.
[This afternoon. Researchers at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services have made a declaration of conscience. This is already the fourth declaration of conscience since the one that hit the Internet three days ago.]
Stories of people who made declarations of conscience continued to play on the large TV on one side of the conference room.
People watching the broadcast shook their heads.
“I can’t stop it anymore.”
“No, who posted that on the Internet?”
“What we did to buy time ended up creating more problems.”
“This was done at the request of the United States, right? They must take responsibility.”
“You’re talking as if we didn’t agree.”
“The Ministry of the Interior and Safety abstained.”
The conference room quickly became noisy.
The President, who was sitting at the head of the table and watching the scene, sighed.
The state of the National Security Council, which was held at first, was not at all funny.
This was done with everyone’s consent anyway. Even those who were trying to withdraw now were not involved.
“Stop,”
the president said, and the conference room became quiet.
The President tapped his desk to organize his thoughts. Whether I was sighing or feeling drained, I had to get things done first.
The President first asked about the scandalous bastard who did this.
“Three days have passed. “Did you find out who posted the document?”
At his question, the head of the National Intelligence Service shook his head.
“Of course, other countries, including the United States, failed to track him down.”
The president looked at him with a puzzled expression.
“Is that possible?”
If it were only Korea, dozens of countries where the article was posted all traced the origin of the article.
“It’s basically impossible. Even if other countries did, the United States tried its best and failed. Moreover, he continued to post after that. In the CIA’s opinion, a mutant human with hacking abilities may have appeared. …”
At the president’s bewildered face, he added,
“It’s just a hypothesis.”
The President sighed again. There was still a lot of time left in my term, but there was a lot of work I couldn’t handle.
‘Well, this situation itself doesn’t make sense.’
The president ultimately postponed the issue of who posted the message.
“There’s no problem with the mutant humans in quarantine, right?”
The Minister of Public Administration and Security answered with a confident expression.
“Except for the initial securers managed by your military, we are doing well without any problems.” Hearing
the Minister of Public Administration and Security say, the President pressed his forehead.
This time, the problem was with the early securers.
They secured them before the mutants were announced and acquired several They were the subjects of various experiments,
and when they revealed everything, they became the most problematic.
***
When mutations first appeared, the World Health Organization and the U.S. government judged them to be an extremely dangerous infectious disease.
All over the world . A pandemic disease that occurs at the same time and is also contagious to humans, with unknown causes and transmission routes.
They thought it was a major disease that could set civilization back decades if mutations were made incorrectly. The
World Health Organization and the U.S. government immediately We hid this with the cooperation of the governments of each country.
It was because it was difficult to handle social chaos.
Most countries agreed, and the mutation disappeared from the media and the Internet.
We kept it a secret from the general public and made every effort to discover the cause of the disease. Meanwhile, things were going strangely.
People began to doubt that it was an epidemic. The
way it started was strange enough to be called an epidemic, and contagion was almost non-existent.
Meanwhile, people began to become greedy for the mutant’s abilities.
In each country . We began research on this mutation.
Of course, there were countries that proceeded reasonably, but there were many more that did not. And Korea was the latter. Since
things turned out like this, we had to push our plans further.
“As the United States announced, we also Let’s announce it. “After I apologize to the public and announce the Mutant Human Registration Act, everyone will wear electronic ankle bracelets.”
The Minister of Public Administration and Security countered the President’s remarks.
“They may reject your registration because of those documents.”
“shit. That document again. Was it called Eve?”
A harsh sound came out of the president’s mouth.
The Minister of National Defense shook his head at the words of the Minister of Public Administration and Security.
“It will be difficult to refuse. These are people who have dangerous weapons. Public opinion will also flow that they need to register, not to treat them as criminals, but simply to prepare for danger.”
The President and other ministers nodded their heads, but the Minister of Public Administration and Security argued again:
“But if what is written in those articles is true…”
An article saying that mutant animals are becoming stronger and can only deal with mutant humans.
In today’s society, that phrase has been the most controversial.
“It is possible to stop it now, and there will be no problem in the future. And if the military cannot stop it, no one can. There is no way that an ordinary human can surpass the firepower that humanity has built up.”
The Chief of Staff, who had been listening quietly all this time, opened his mouth. I couldn’t just listen to this matter and move on.
The minister who had raised a counterargument to the Chief of Staff’s words closed his mouth.
Honestly, all this talk was meaningless if the military didn’t work. There was no way for a country or government to survive without an army.
As for the future, the story has come to an end. Now the most important problem remains.
The Chief Secretary spoke on behalf of everyone.
“We need someone to take responsibility for what has happened so far.”
Everyone looked at the President’s mouth as the Chief of Staff spoke.
The President sighed and opened his mouth.
On the 50-inch TV screen next to the desk, the Minister was bowing his head and apologizing.
[I take full responsibility and will resign from public office. .]
A flash filled the screen, and the screen switched studios.
[After the announcement of Minister of the Interior and Safety Nam Cheong-ha’s resignation, the prosecution announced that it would conduct an investigation without sanctuary, including the arrest of Minister Nam. Then, the opposition party complained about the need for a government investigation…]
After a while, the news ended and commercials began to appear.
Kyung-hoon, who had been concentrating on his work for a while, said to Eve,
“If you’ve finished watching, can you turn off the TV screen?”
– Okay.
Side . An answer came from the cell phone placed on the screen, and the TV immediately turned off. Perhaps
because it was a smart TV, Eve could be used as a remote control.
It was an artificial intelligence that turned the world upside down and surpassed its time, but Kyung-hoon felt more like an artificial intelligence now. After a
while, Kyung-hoon After finishing this work, I got up.
This was Kyung-hoon’s studio. It was his factory.
A partition was set up on one side of the empty factory and he was using it as a studio, but even this partitioned studio was very spacious for me to use alone.
– Congratulations. It’s been three days since I posted this. We received the surrender of countries around the world, including the United States. In addition to apologies from heads of state, there were six ministerial-level resignations, seven investigations by the National Assembly, and large-scale rallies in many places. “Where did you learn to say that?
”
-I am getting information from the Internet. I am trying to correct my speaking style using words that are used today as much as possible.
Kyung-hoon glanced at his phone while inserting a bullet into the magazine. Rather than learning such phrases, I thought it would be better to change my stiff speaking style.
Artificial intelligence Eve seemed quite proud of what she had accomplished for the first time. I collected all kinds of articles and broadcast materials and reported them from time to time as I do now.
Kyung-hoon was also excited about the unexpected result. Although follow-up measures have not been announced yet, it does not seem to be much different from expectations.
Although there is still a long way to go, this time he has advanced the work on his own.
But even such a great victory could not change the reality in front of us.
Kyunghoon looked at the magazine filled with bullets with regretful eyes.
“Eight rounds. Not even a single magazine was filled.”
Eight bullets. This was the number of bullets engraved with patterns that were recovered with reloading equipment.
Bullets that were recycled from the bullets given by Hyerin and the bullets that he recovered as much as possible.
At least I was able to use the gun again , but
it was a ridiculously insufficient amount.
Please come to the factory here as soon as possible . It was necessary to produce bullets with engraved patterns.
To do so, machine tools were needed and people’s help was needed.
“That would require more money.”
But now he had very little money left.
After buying the factory, paying taxes, and purchasing equipment, all that money was almost gone.
I had to make money again, but I didn’t know if I would have the same luck again.
At that time, Eve responded to Kyung-hoon’s self-talk.
-If you want to make money, I think you should invest in various industries or companies.
“Are you telling me to buy stocks? What do I know about stocks? All I know is that if I do it, I will fail.”
-It’s not just stocks. Anyway, it seems like the best way to make money. Hearing
Eve’s words, Kyung-hoon looked at his phone with expectant eyes.
“Surely, Eve, you’re the kind of AI that’s extremely good at stocks like in the movies?”
-Is there such a movie? Anyway, many expert systems are still involved in the stock market, and there are many skilled experts. There is too little information to deal with them in one go.” Kyung-hoon looked at his phone with cold eyes. “Then
invest
. “What is the story about?”
-I’m talking about long-term investment.
“Long-term investment?”
-You left quite a lot of information in the document, but you still know a lot of information alone. How the world will change, what industries will rise and what industries will sink, and beyond the history that Kyung-hoon saw at the exhibition hall, Eve knows what happened in the other world
. I knew what was happening.
Registration and surveillance of the awakened people. The defeat of the military and the crisis of the world economy. And, information about the activities of the awakened people and the world being reorganized. Lastly, even the humans who lost their cities and left. Mana that much information
. It was stored inside the stone.
Kyung-hoon’s cold eyes sparkled. He saw money. He politely asked Eve.
“So, what should we do first?”
-Of course, initial funds are needed.
Kyunghoon twitched his eyebrows.
“You’re back to the first story. No, money has become more important, right?”
– It’s clear that if he hadn’t bought this factory, he would have had enough initial capital.
Kyung-hoon glared at his phone. I couldn’t tell if he was just telling the truth or teasing me.
“What the heck… .”
Kyung-hoon, who was looking around the factory in a daze, saw glass bottles.
They were potions that had been taken out for a special purpose. When
Kyung-hoon saw the potions, he remembered something from not long ago.
“Was this? A strawberry-flavored potion?”
Kyung-hoon took out the potion that cured Eun-hye’s father.
It seemed like there might be a way to make money.
