Gundam: The Wind That Blows Through Space

Chapter 682 Independent Investigation Power

"The so-called photocopy person hides an innocent life. Are you willing to watch your loved ones return to the human world in this parasitic way?"

A week later, Mina's holographic projections began to appear on the square screens in major cities, from PLANT to North Africa. The wide coverage clearly showed that Mina was determined about this, and it could even be said that he was ready for a civil war.

After receiving the combat suit video footage exported by Hilde, Mina spent nearly a week to reach a unanimous resolution with the political groups under his command, which was to implement the "Photocopy Killing Act" and at the same time increase the intensity of the crackdown on the remnants of the library.

In the original timeline, the Library organization had never been exposed to the public from its birth to its destruction. The organization's biggest boss, Preya, did not recognize the Library's philosophy and even took the lead in opposing the photocopier's technology.

Finally, with the help of ND, the entire library was destroyed by Shewei, Luo and others before the technology could spread, and all the technology was taken to Mars. It can be said that the impact on the world was almost zero.

However, Siegfried's butterfly wings changed everything. First, Durandal turned to cooperate with the Library under the relentless pressure of the upgraded version of Orb, which directly led to the armed intervention of this organization that was supposed to be independent of the world since the Junius Fragment incident.

After using two copies, suspected to be Pleia and Gold Weia, to forcibly destroy a relay point, Durandal fell in the tide of time along with Requiem, but Siegfried's copy inherited his legacy and went to Earth, where he joined forces with the Tuner by chance, and the situation became out of control from then on.

In fact, when Orb first shared information about the library, Dongya was determined to completely destroy it, and after the theft of the sour berries, Dongya's determination to destroy the library reached its peak. He even carried out several political purges internally against the existence of the photocopiers.

The harm of the photocopiers is not just as simple as being used as spies or copying some ace pilots. This kind of creature has already posed a threat to the human group from a social structure perspective. No matter if you are a commoner, a billionaire, or a government official, if a substitute with genes exactly the same as yours suddenly appears one day, everyone will fall into an extremely terrifying self-proof trap. Siegfried's "Photocopier Kill Order" was passed precisely for this reason.

In the initial deduction, Hilde was prepared to quickly cut off the transmission path of the Copy Man at the lowest cost, so as to seal this anti-human technology. However, with the emergence of Van Dyson and the signal of Frey's amnesty, the Orb side began to realize that it was an impossible task to quickly defeat the Copy Man.

The video footage brought back by ND and Ingrid did not cover the entire internal situation of the factory, but Mina focused the camera on the young daughter of the Minister of Finance through post-production, thus completely unveiling the mystery of the "resurrection of the dead."

"The death of a loved one is an unhealable wound for anyone, but are the loved ones resurrected by the photocopy really the same person we remember? As a victim of the photocopy, I believe that even if the appearance and genes are exactly the same, the resurrected photocopy can never replace the softest existence in our hearts!"

To increase the persuasiveness, Mina even inserted a passage about the Purple Heretic during the Second Battle of Orb. You have to know that Gina's original body is at most an ambitious but incompetent man. To say that his ambition is not worthy of his ability is almost the best summary of his life, but the copy Gina has completely fallen into madness, especially the scene in the end when he wanted to kill Mina. If Siegfried hadn't fallen from the sky, it would have become a complete tragedy of human relations. "Today, you resurrected your deceased relatives, but don't forget that living people can also be copied. If one day you can't even prove whether you are the original or the copy, you will definitely regret what you did!"

Mina knew very well that it was wishful thinking to try to use ethics and morals to impress those politicians who had already tasted the sweetness of photocopying technology. She knew very well that those people's moral standards and humanity were almost infinitely equal to zero. If it weren't for the fact that PLANT artificial organ technology had begun to become gradually popular, Mina even dared to guarantee that someone would send organ matches to the front line to die.

Therefore, Mina knew very well what the weaknesses of these people were. Power and wealth were the only magic weapons that could ensure that they were superior to ordinary people. But if one day, they were facing their own photocopies and even the legitimacy of their identities could not be guaranteed, then no matter how high the power and how much wealth they had, it would only be a wedding dress for others.

However, Mina did not choose to make all the information public. At least Hilde could confirm one thing through technical reverse deduction, that is, the technical threshold for copying people is extremely high. As far as we know, the upper limit of the combat power created by the other party is Lao Lu Cruze, followed by Cong Yunhe. These two people have one thing in common, that is, there are no secrets in the genetic samples.

In fact, if you want to clone a complete "person", it is not enough to simply have a hair or a DNA sample. Lao and Cong Yunhe are man-made products, and it can be said that their genetic samples have been studied to death.

However, Kira, who is also a man-made product, has never been successfully photocopied. In addition to the fact that Dr. Xiang did a good job of keeping it secret, it also shows that the strength of the individual is the biggest obstacle to the success rate of photocopying.

The remaining Siegfried is an outlier among outliers. Durandal tried his best to just copy himself before the time travel. Unexpectedly, Siegfried single-handedly opened up a new direction for human evolution. Similar to him is Canard, the "fool number two" in Hilde's words, who also took the first step as a reformer. Even if someone copies Canard of that year, there will be essential differences between the two.

"With the current technical means, we are unable to quickly and accurately distinguish between the photocopies and the originals, but the emergence of the Reformers has changed all of this. They possess brain quantum waves and are naturally the nemesis of the photocopies! The Human Revolutionary League will never allow this technology that violates human ethics to continue to exist. We allow mistakes to be made, but we must not make the same mistake over and over again!"

'The world is not just black and white, more often than not, it is actually a delicate gray.'
In Grana, Damina told Cagalli earnestly why he left a loophole for his political enemies. Seeking common ground while reserving differences is an extremely critical political skill, especially when the high-end combat power of both sides is almost equal, and even Van Dyson has a slight advantage. Killing them all is not a good choice.

Before the whole world had time to recover from Mina's news, Aslan Zala returned to the world's attention as the commander of Celestial Being. Wearing a special red military uniform, he announced that from now on, Celestial Being will initiate an independent investigation, directly targeting the possibility that the beam cloak that appeared in the Berlin terrorist attack has some connection with the subsequent Black Knight.

"I hope Luo Pan can cooperate with us in this investigation and clear themselves of suspicion. If they don't want to be decent, then I will help them be decent."
