I participated in the development of EVA

"If you are really tired, just take a night's rest before going back."

Ikari Fumihiko was just stunned for a moment, a little shaken in his heart but finally shook his head. He himself was not a man with strong willpower, just an ordinary person who was a bit slow in doing things. Now he invested so much energy in the Three Sages System, maybe he wanted to change something with it, and he really valued the Three Sages System.

But more often than not, there is some dissatisfaction because one cannot get what one wants.

In this terrible world, he has never thought of saving the world until now, because he knows that he does not have that ability, so his desire has never changed.

Have a complete family.

"If I don't go back and keep an eye on it, I'll be a little worried."

Ibuki Huimi opened her mouth but in the end said nothing.

It was Fumihiko Ikari who broke the silence.

"Have Li and the others gone to bed?"

"Ah."

Ibuki Huimi responded and continued speaking.

"Go take a shower and change your clothes."

"Ah."

Ikari Fumihiko followed Ibuki Megumi's instructions, took a shower, changed his clothes, and prepared to leave.

When I reached the door, I stopped.

I wanted to say something, but changed my words because I didn't want to make the atmosphere more awkward.

"Remember to give them New Year's money."

"Ah."

Get on the helicopter and fly towards the research institute.

Ibuki Emi watched this scene.

Misato Katsuragi also watched this scene. Unlike Ibuki Keimi, she was just unable to sleep today because she was reminded of the past buried deep in her heart. When she closed her mind, the images that emerged were either the suffering her mother had endured over the years, or the scene when her father gave her his last hope of survival.

At this moment, she wanted to ask others, "What should I do?", but no one could give her an answer that she didn't know.

Also thinking about it at the same time.

If my mother had not endured so much suffering and had not died of the illness, or if I had not accepted the hope of survival given up by my father.

Will everything be different?

She looked down at Ibuki Huimi who was standing at the door, and an inexplicable feeling surged in her heart.

Will these two become like their parents in the future? But fortunately...

They have no children.

Even if there was, it definitely wouldn't become like me.

Not everyone has the opportunity to experience enlightenment, and naturally they won't encounter the same difficulties as she is facing now.

……

After returning to the project team, Fumihiko Ikari did not go to see Naoko Akagi, but lay down in the medical cabin to restore his spirit to its peak state.

Seeing him come back, Naoko Akagi took the initiative to talk to him.

"I thought you weren't coming back tonight."

"take a break."

"Ah."

After Naoko Akagi left, Fumihiko Ikari did not take over Naoko Akagi's work personally, but directly handed the work of data analysis and organization to the project team members. Naoko Akagi liked to do this kind of thing herself, worried that others would make mistakes, but he was completely different. He liked to be a hands-off boss, or rather... he trusted others' ability to do things.

However, despite trust, he still set up two control groups to prevent any problems in this environment.

There is no way around it because these data are too important. Future research directions are all based on these data. If there are any omissions, we may have to start all over again.

Before I knew it, three days had passed in a flash.

The fifty old plans that were initially determined have all been verified, and no breakthrough progress has been made, only a large amount of complex data has been collected.

At this moment, Ikari Fumihiko, Ibuki Huimi and everyone else were sitting in the conference room, analyzing and organizing the data.

Fumihiko Ikari watched as Naoko Akagi filled the sorted and analyzed data into the digital model.

"It's a pity that the computer performance is still a bit poor. If the computing power is stronger, I can write an algorithm to deduce it based on the existing data through the computer. This should save a lot of time."

Even if the world had not suffered a second impact that caused at least a three-year window in the development of civilization, the computer performance at this stage of normal development would not be sufficient.

Akagi Naoko didn't even raise her head.

"It's not impossible. The performance can be compensated by algorithms. I'll try it when I have more data."

It took the project team of more than one hundred people a full month to sort out the huge amount of data and build a digital model. People had a better understanding of the EVA brain and soon confirmed the transformation plan for the third batch of biological brains. During this time, Fumihiko Ikari learned a lot of knowledge and was barely able to participate in the transformation plan meeting.

Even after the third batch of biological brain verification experiments began, Dr. Ito's paper was officially published.

The biggest commotion this time was not caused by scholars, but by...

Ordinary people.

People initially marveled at medical advances and were curious about treatments.

As more and more people are curious, naturally some people will start to popularize science.

As people have a general understanding of the treatment plan, their attention has shifted from the treatment plan to the neural connection device. They are not curious about the technical difficulty of this equipment, because that is something that only the academic community will care about. What ordinary people care about is... the incredible concepts involved.

Dreams? Inner world?

Are you sure—

What you are popularizing is science, not metaphysics! ?

Or is the end of science really theology? !

This was being discussed everywhere, and Misato Katsuragi naturally paid attention to the news as well.

Fumihiko Ikari, the developer of the neural connection device! ?

"It can't be someone, right?"

A figure of about her own age appeared in her mind.

"Ritsuko, this isn't a homonym, is it?"

Now that the relevant information has spread everywhere and everyone knows it, Ritsuko Akagi felt that she could answer it and gave an answer.

"No."

"No way? Is he really that powerful?"

17:16:12

311. Too Similar (The Fuxuan card pool will be updated as soon as I wake up, right?)

After just a quick search for relevant information on the Internet, Misato Katsuragi was left speechless by this so-called neural connection device.

"So are these dreams and inner worlds real?"

"I am not sure as well."

This time it was not that Ritsuko Akagi was hiding information, but she really didn't know, otherwise she would have kept silent. She had indeed seen incredible scenes in the base, but she only knew some one-sided things and did not know much about the specifics, let alone the top-secret neural connection device, which she actually did not know before.

"It feels magical. Is this really something that can be developed by modern science?"

Ritsuko Akagi did not answer, but silently browsed the relevant information on the Internet.

Seeing this, Misato Katsuragi stopped disturbing her.

After a long time, Akagi Ritsuko raised her head with a look of realization. Seeing this, Katsuragi Misato asked curiously.

"Well, did you figure out anything?"

“You’ll understand after reading this article.”

"That's too many words. I don't want to waste my brains on it. Just tell me the result."

It would be fine if it was just a few more words, but the main thing is that the article is all in English. Misato Katsuragi cannot read it as smoothly as Ritsuko Akagi. She needs to translate while reading, and even look up the dictionary when she encounters unfamiliar professional terms. It's really too tiring.

"The content is roughly about this person speculating on the operating principle of the neural connection device from the perspective of brain science."

"Hmm? What on earth was that dream about?"

"It is probably connected to the temporal lobe in some way. Simply put, dreams are connected to the memory area of ​​the human brain."

"I see……"

Halfway through, Katsuragi Misato's face changed, "Isn't that just reading memories?"

"That was just a simple overview, the actual situation is much more complicated, and it was just that person's speculation."

"Is it really impossible to do that?"

"It shouldn't be possible. Not to mention how complex the human brain is, just trying to circumvent the brain's protective mechanism is a difficult problem to overcome."

The more Misato Katsuragi listened, the more confused she became.

"So what exactly is this device?"

“Do you know about brain-computer interfaces?”

"I have a rough understanding of it, but this neural connection device and brain-computer interface are completely different in nature, right? I remember that the brain-computer interface can only simply read information on the surface of the brain, but this device can interact with the mind. Well, it feels like a device that allows people to interact at the soul level."

"It shouldn't be that exaggerated, it's just that the interactive information is deeper, right?"

In fact, Ritsuko Akagi is not much better than Misato Katsuragi, and she also doesn't understand the details of the neural connection suit.

There is too little information released about the neural connection device, and related discussions are all inferred based on the academic name of the device and its performance effects.

"Forget it... This thing looks too complicated. Even if the technical information is laid out in front of me, I still can't understand it."

Misato Katsuragi focused her attention on the developer, Fumihiko Ikari.

Many of Ikari Fumihiko's past experiences were dug up, and after reading them, she was completely unable to connect the above content with Ikari Fumihiko.

"You can't judge a book by its cover. He may look ordinary, but his achievements are not ordinary at all."

"He's just not that obviously handsome."

"You still don't think he's handsome even when you look at him through a filter. Isn't that ordinary enough?"

"..."

Seeing that Ritsuko Akagi didn't say anything, Misato Katsuragi realized that she had said the wrong thing. Ikari Fumihiko had a girlfriend, and she shouldn't have made fun of such things.

Misato Katsuragi lowered her head in embarrassment and continued to read the relevant comments.

The voices on the Internet are not completely one-sided, and there are still many doubts about this achievement.

Just then, Misato Katsuragi's cell phone suddenly rang.

Akagi Ritsuko subconsciously took a look, it was just a string of phone calls, no names were marked. Katsuragi Misato just looked down and frowned before hanging up, but the call came back a few moments later, and after this happened several times, Katsuragi Misato couldn't help but put the call into the blacklist.

Ritsuko Akagi was a little curious, but didn't ask.

Not long after, the phone rang again, but this time it was Ritsuko Akagi's cell phone.

It's an unknown number.

After a moment's hesitation, she answered the phone.

"Hello."

"Hello."

"you are?"

"Uh, sorry, I was so nervous that I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Kaji Ryosuke."

Ryosuke Kaji?

She had no impression of the name at all, but in order to avoid the call coming from the research institute, she asked.

"I'm Akagi Ritsuko, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"No, I want to look for Katsuragi-san."
