Chapter 446 The First Experimental Subject
Yun Jing said that the ultimate goal of all Yun Qitian's plans was to take the entire Yunqi Group away from his mother.
At that time, Yunqi Group was not called this name. It was the life's work of Yun Jing's grandfather.
"My mother only likes to teach and is not good at doing business. Yun Qitian seized this point and constantly persuaded my mother to hand over the control of the group to him."
Yun Jing's mother was wary of her husband who was good at scheming, but she couldn't stand him nagging her all day, so she asked her father to arrange a position for Yun Qitian in the group.
Although Yun Qitian was a guy with bad character, his ability had to be admired. He started from this small position, constantly expanded, and gradually held power in his own hands.
At that time, Yun Jing's grandfather suddenly passed away, and his mother suffered a great blow.

"My grandpa was killed by Yun Qitian," Yun Jing said with a slightly unstable voice, "He thought I was ignorant and didn't understand his behavior of adding dosage to grandpa's medicine bowl, but I already remembered it at that time."
Yun Jing told his mother, but Yun Qitian, as always, was very good at superficial work and took care of his wife who lost her relatives in every possible way. As for Yun Jing, he was just "an ignorant and lying child" in his mouth, and his mother, who was exhausted physically and mentally, had no energy to distinguish the truth from the falsehood of this sentence.
The father-daughter relationship between grandpa and mother was very deep. After the former passed away, Yun Jing's mother could not get away from his death for many years, which also gave Yun Qitian an opportunity to take advantage of it.
"He cheated the group from my mother and renamed it Yunqi. They had been married for many years at that time, and my mother treated him as her own family, and thought it was good for her husband to take over.
But Yun Qitian's desires can never be satisfied. After he took control of the Yunqi Group, he tore off his hypocritical face and began to treat my mother harshly, letting her get sicker and sicker without caring about anything."
Yun Qitian had long seen Yun Jing's hostility towards him, so he sent him abroad to study as early as junior high school. Since the death of his grandfather, Yun Jing's mother's health has been getting worse. She tried to reduce going out as much as possible because it would be difficult to recover if she got sick. Yun Jing didn't want his mother to be tired, and his own schoolwork was very heavy. So the way they get along is limited to video chats three times a week.
In every video, Yun Jing always talks more, and his mother always smiles and occasionally agrees.
"But gradually, I found that there was something wrong with the mother who was talking to me on the screen. Although she responded less in the past, she responded seriously to every sentence.
But later, my mother changed. The tone of her response to me became particularly programmed, as if she was installed with a fixed program. At that time, when I tried to say more at once, her reaction became sluggish, and it seemed that she could not quickly complete the analysis of this paragraph."
Yun Jing's words became more and more horrifying. The gentle and kind mother, lying on the hospital bed, obviously had the same gentle eyes as before, but her inner core had been replaced.
Zheng Xun was also a little surprised.
"Artificial intelligence? The video was synthesized?"
"I have thought about this too. But later, as I got to know Yunqi Group better, I suspected that this was a bionic man they made."
"...Bionic man?"
Zheng Xun couldn't help but think of the "Zheng Xun" with different personalities he had seen in the copy, and Lin Yisheng's words, a scene similar to the "Zheng Xun Recycling Station" he had seen in the Siming Building.
At that time, Zheng Xun thought that these replicas were just the same models made by the White Tower through data. Could it be that things were more complicated than he imagined?
But in his impression, it seemed that there was another "person" running out of the White Tower copy.
"Yun Jing, can the boss or NPC in the White Tower leave the copy?"
"Hmm? Judging from the information I have learned, it is not allowed. But some of them with high levels seem to be able to break away from the limitations of the inherent copy and enter and exit other copies."
Zheng Xun said "Hmm".
"Go on, Yun Jing."
Yun Jing discovered that his mother was abnormal, and he secretly returned to the country and returned to the Yun family. When he arrived at home, he did not find his mother. He asked the aunt at home, but the aunt hesitated and refused to tell the truth.
Yun Qitian happened to return home, and Yun Jing confronted him, and the two had a fierce quarrel.
Yun Jing insisted on seeing his mother, but Yun Qitian just said that his mother was receiving treatment. Because he was afraid that he could not be cured, he kept it a secret from his son.
Concealment was also his mother's intention.
Yun Jing did not believe it. This concealment was very harmful to him. He did not think his mother would do this.
He suspected that Yun Qitian had imprisoned his wife in a hospital. He spent a lot of effort and tried every possible way to finally find out the whereabouts of his mother.
"Senior, do you know the empty house?"
Yun Jing asked Zheng Xun.
"Empty house? Is it... that magic?"
"That's not just a magic," Yun Jing tried to keep his voice steady, "It's a channel, from a one-way channel to a two-way channel..."
"What does channel... mean?"
"We call the White Tower a 'game' because it is really presented in the form of a game for people in the One World. At the two ends of the four-sided computer screen, people sitting outside are people from the One World, and the game world on the screen is the real Second World."
In the initial version, Yunqi Group optimized the White Tower game many times, developed a variety of functions, and its control over the Second World became stronger and stronger.
But their desires are endless. If they only control the second world through the screen, then they can at most be regarded as a group of players who play the game well.
What they really want to achieve is to be able to freely shuttle between the two spaces and truly turn the second world into something they can plunder at will.
But this is not an easy task.
"The Empty House Project was a plan that started before the White Tower Game. Yun Qitian has always been eager to crack the secrets of time and space. This is a continuation of his research direction when he was studying and a fanatical obsession in his heart.
He used high salaries to gather a group of the best researchers and built the "Empty House". Because this plan is top secret, Yun Qitian and I fell out early, and I don't know a lot of things.
I only know that during the implementation of the Empty House Project, an opportunity appeared. After that, Yun Qitian focused on the White Tower Game.
And my mother became one of the victims of his experiment."
The first step of the Empty House Project is to transmit objects to other time and space. When the experiment of the object is successful, the second step is to transmit people.
Before the White Tower appeared, Yun Qitian had already reached the second step. Yun Jing's seriously ill mother was the first to bear the brunt and became the first experimental subject.
"The experiment failed. When I found her, there was only a hospital gown soaked in blood."
