Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory

The titan supercomputer is located in a corner of the laboratory. It is an independent building. The wire mesh separates it from everything around it. The soldiers with live ammunition at the guard booth at the door silently tell the story of the special nature of this building.

Jimmy is an ordinary employee in the laboratory. He has been working next to this computing monster since graduating from college. The computing monster is the name he gave to the titan supercomputer. In Jimmy's eyes, it is a computer that swallows countless energy and occasionally spits out a few

A monster of boring numbers. Every piece of equipment and every staff member here, including Jimmy, is just counting the screws on the monster.

Jimmy is very satisfied with being able to work here. His job is very easy. When there are no computing tasks, he is responsible for checking the monitoring lights installed in the body of the computing monster. If there is a problem with any light, he only needs to call the maintenance department.

.When there is a computing task, he only needs to mount the mobile encryption disk at the mouth of the computing monster.

Of course, the fact that a college student can obtain such a well-paid position has a lot to do with his background. Jimmy's father is a professional soldier, and his brother even died in an overseas war. So although Jimmy has very good academic qualifications and abilities,

It's mediocre, but I can get this job with a monthly salary of more than 5 figures.

The only thing he was dissatisfied with was the military-style management here. Mobile phones, tablets, and even computers were not allowed to connect to the Internet. Mobile storage devices without specific chips installed were prohibited from being brought in.

On days without tasks, he could only chat with a few engineers in their 50s. In his opinion, these nerds were too boring. It was just that they didn't watch movies or listen to music. What Jimmy couldn't accept the most was

They don’t even watch cartoons. Don’t they know that One Piece is the best cartoon in the world?

The best thing about staying in one place for a long time is that you can discover some unexpected secrets.

The same was true for Jimmy. He found a forgotten computer in a utility room. This old antique could still turn on, which made him overjoyed.

Although this computer cannot be connected to the Internet, like other computers in the laboratory, it can mount a removable encryption disk, which is enough for Jimmy.

After finally staying up until after get off work time, Jimmy quietly put a mobile encryption disk into his backpack in the corner of the laboratory, and then said hello and goodbye to the boring engineers as usual.

"Jimmy, are you off work?" The soldier on duty saw him and took the initiative to say hello.

Jimmy smiled: "Paco, you are on duty today. My father said you are getting married soon."

As if ignoring the normal security procedures, soldier Paco opened the door and replied: "It will be next week. You and your father must come to attend the wedding."

"Of course!" Jimmy walked out of the heavily guarded laboratory with his backpack. As expected, most of the soldiers on duty here were his father's former subordinates. For such an "acquaintance", they would not check at all.

Because this mobile encryption disk is installed with a specific chip, it will not trigger the security alarm.

So Jimmy will do this once a week. He will save the latest One Piece episodes downloaded from pirated websites to the mobile hard drive at home, and then secretly watch them in the utility room when he has free time.

It was the same this time. The One Piece that Jimmy was looking forward to was updated again. He couldn't wait to open it and start downloading.

Only this time, he didn't notice that these episodes of One Piece occupied a larger capacity than usual.

The next day, Jimmy came to the laboratory leisurely. Different from the past, he happened to have a new task today. A pharmaceutical company needed titan to analyze the chemical formula of a drug.

"It seems that we can't see it today." He walked out of the laboratory with the mobile encryption disk. There was an office outside the door specially used for handing over data.

When he arrived, the staff of the pharmaceutical factory were already waiting in front of the data transfer machine.

Jimmy was not worried about the One Piece episodes in the hard drive. He plugged the hard drive into the data switch interface and turned around and said, "Turn around, this is a confidential project."

The staff of the pharmaceutical factory hurriedly turned around. Titan's work content was always very mysterious. As a person around Titan, Jimmy was naturally full of mystery.

Jimmy entered the secret key, copied the data into the mobile encryption disk, looked at the One Piece episodes stored in it, and shook his head helplessly, "It seems I can only watch it tomorrow."

After completing the data handover task, Jimmy returned to the laboratory and mounted the encryption disk on titan.

A program followed the data stream into titan's computing pool through the optical cable, and deleted its existence in the security disk, including Jimmy's favorite One Piece series.

"Start the titan supercomputer!" As a staff member clicked the mouse, there was a "buzzing" sound in the computer room, and various indicator lights flashed.

"The voltage is normal!"

"The current is normal!"

"Computer load 10%!"

"Computer load 20%!"

.....

"Computer load 80%!"

.....

Several titan operators looked at each other. According to the preset settings, this calculation would only use 70% of the computing power of the titan supercomputer, but now the computer load has reached 80%, and it is still rising.

"Jimmy, check the titan's lights," an operator called over the intercom.

"If you can't handle it yourself, why don't you call me?" Jimmy walked into the computer room reluctantly. What he hated most in the laboratory were these operators. Since he had a doctorate degree, he often looked down on undergraduates like Jimmy. However, he still looked at the computer room carefully.

of various indicator lights, because that's his job.

"A1 is normal, a2 is normal...f12 is normal!" Jimmy checked all the indicator lights, and he shouted into the intercom: "All the indicator lights are normal."

In the control room, a tense atmosphere was permeating the air. The option of emergency shutdown was placed in front of the operators, and they turned their questioning eyes to the leader.

The leader of the operator was sweating on his head. He hesitated and shook his head. He wanted to wait a little longer.

"Computer load 90%!"

"Computer load 91%!"

.....

"Computer load 95%!"

"Computer load 95%!"

Finally, the computer load stopped rising, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, because the emergency shutdown meant that their preliminary work had gone wrong.

"Everything is normal!" After careful inspection, they found no problems.

The biggest problem is that there is no problem. The head operator has decided to conduct a detailed inspection of all equipment after the program is finished.

After 48 hours, the program finally ran smoothly and the data was downloaded to the mobile encrypted disk through optical fiber.

Jimmy took the encryption disk and was about to leave the laboratory.

"Jimmy, wait!" An operator blocked his way, "The encryption disk in your hand needs to be checked."

Any equipment connected to the supercomputer needs to be checked. This is an order from their boss.

Jimmy's palms were sweating and his legs shook slightly, "Have you been discovered?"

He tried his best to suppress his trembling hands and gently inserted the encryption disk into the computer next to him.

The operator stared at the encrypted disk and found nothing unusual about Jimmy. He opened the encrypted drive letter and looked carefully. Apart from data similar to chemical formulas, there were no suspicious programs in the encrypted disk.

"No problem, just send it out!"

When Jimmy heard this sentence, he felt as if he had been through hell. "Where are those One Piece episodes?" This thought swirled in his mind, but it didn't take long for him to say, "Maybe it was deleted by titan. It's in the computer."

Who can figure it out?" instead.
