The sorted old materials were taken by Yan Suizhi and the others to the Ivy Hospital together.
The people in Lin Yuan's laboratory also stayed all night, relying on espresso and refreshment to continue their lives. The last time they worked so hard was when they were rushing to make epidemic vaccines.
At 8:00 in the morning, just after the first bottleneck period, Lin Yuan urged the researchers to go to the next lounge to catch up on sleep. All reaction processes were switched to encrypted mode, leaving only one researcher to watch the door.
There is a lot of space on this floor of the building, but in fact there are only two chief doctors who study the core—Lin Yuan and Curly Jacques Bai. Other than that, it's all labs and lounges.
The two of them are of the same age and rank, and the environment provided by the hospital is basically the same.
The desks are head-to-head, and the separate lounges are on the east side of the corridor and the other on the west side of the corridor. There are also two rest rooms for research assistants.
After so many years, Lin Yuan didn't feel anything special, but today is an exception.
Because Mervyn White, Curly's adoptive father, came.
When Mervyn Bai appeared at the door of the lounge, Lin Yuan choked half to death with a sip of coffee, coughing so hard.
"What? Am I so scary?" Mervyn Bai patted his junior angrily.
Honestly, it's really scary.
The father and son who used to have a good relationship have not seen each other for too many years, and have been deliberately avoiding all possible occasions, especially this Ivy Hospital. Lin Yuan couldn't figure out how many years this state had lasted.
Although it was a pity, he really thought that this state would continue forever, but he didn't expect Mervyn Bai to make an exception today.
His braided uncle actually stepped into this Ivy Hospital and took the initiative to reach this floor.
Isn't it just living hell in the blue sky and daytime!
If the curly hair happened to appear at this time, and then happened to bump into the landlord, it would be a veritable hell!
Lin Yuan couldn't help but imagine that scene, feeling a little exciting.
Unfortunately, he looked in the direction of the elevator several times, but the curls did not appear.
"Don't look at it." Mervyn Bai knew exactly what he was thinking, and snorted, "The watch is scrolling on the big screen downstairs."
Lin Yuan couldn't remember the day in the past few days, and he was stunned for a while before he remembered. According to the usual schedule, Curly Hair rested today.
Why the fuck are you off today? !
Dr. Lin rarely cursed people in his heart.
Twenty years after resignation, Mervyn Bai has almost forgotten the professional content, but he still remembers some important details in the research process very clearly.
Lin Yuan poured coffee, and while chatting with him, he wrote and drew on those research manuscripts, memorizing a lot. The originally vague key was opened, and the mess opened.
They even chatted and argued, and came up with two plans. Lin Yuan dug out various data and compared them for a long time, and finally made the first set.
"This program is well-established. From person to person, you only need to rely on the simulator that comes with the analyzer to conduct virtual experiments to get results. Because the process is highly controllable, the results of virtual experiments are almost zero difference from in vivo applications." Lin Yuan Explaining the reason, "Once it is successful in the instrument, it can be used immediately on those old people and Ke Jin, and the success rate is the same. As for the second set of plans..."
The second set of protocols is derived from Mervyn White's original research manuscript.
When they constructed the basic gene segment, they left such an incision in case they needed it in the future. Later, the research became more and more complicated, more and more people participated, and the division of labor became more and more detailed and unrelated to each other. So much so that this incision was almost forgotten.
Even Mervyn Bai himself remembered it when he was reorganizing the research manuscript.
"This project is inspired by the bullfinch. Yes, the most common and inconspicuous bird that can be seen everywhere."
Mervyn Bai recalled their ideas back then, "It is well known that although this kind of bird is inconspicuous, its vitality and adaptability are amazing. We have done research in the early years, and the time flow rate and environment of different planets are very different. Most creatures will have uncomfortable reactions. Among them, people are already very adaptable. But the weak also have some symptoms, such as nausea, dizziness, repeated fever, such as unstable blood pressure, immune system Decline. Even if the adaptability is strong, it is acquired through training, such as those like you who can issue annual shuttle cards—"
The landlord said, looked at Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan, and made a joke: "Who hasn't vomited in other planets when he was a child! Before I was 15 years old, when I heard the word "shuttle machine", I started looking for the bathroom and vomited first. Five minutes later."
Yan Suizhi said with a smile, "I haven't vomited, but I always have a fever. When I got on the shuttle, my body temperature started to rise."
As he spoke, he looked at Gu Yan curiously, "Are you vomiting?"
Gu Yan thought about it for a while: "At first, I got airsick, but I didn't vomit. I just didn't like to talk when I was dizzy."
Yan Suizhi: "Is this different from not being dizzy?"
Gu Yan: "..."
Attorney Gu stared at him for a moment with a paralyzed face, then turned to signal the landlord to continue.
"In short, as long as it is alive, it will almost always have adverse reactions, with the exception of the bullfinch. This little thing can adapt to all changes, because it has a balance mechanism. Its body is like a backup machine at any time. Equipment, once it is not running smoothly, will automatically return to the last backup point and return to the most healthy state. This makes them alive most of the time and have a very long life. Of course, this balancing mechanism consumes a lot of energy every time it operates. They have a lot of energy, so they can eat very well without getting fat."
The second set of plans they devised is to borrow this trait of the bullfinch and transplant it into patients, allowing them to adjust their body functions and return to a "healthy" state. That way, the problematic gene segment is rejected, and it can be safely removed with normal genetic surgery.
But the up-front risk of this regimen is high, because bullfinches and humans are two completely different species, and the side effects and rejections are likely to be severe. It is not enough to rely on the simulator of the analyzer to do virtual experiments. A certain number of in vivo experiments are necessary.
In vivo trials of formal medicines must be approved by the alliance to openly recruit volunteers, and they need to provide a complete risk statement.
With the assistance of virtual experiments, there are actually very few people needed for in vivo experiments, but the approval process is very strict, ranging from one month to six months. Those elderly people in the hospital with systemic organ failure can't afford to wait at all.
So Lin Yuan put this plan aside.
Their discussion continued until noon.
The hospital logistics sent two carts of lunch boxes here. The researchers didn't rest for a long time. They got up and took a few bites like sleepwalking.
After the landlord finished his lunch, he patted his butt and wanted to leave, but was stopped by Yan Suizhi and the others.
"In your current situation, is it not safe to live alone?" Lin Yuan looked worried.
Gu Yan said something unprecedented, "I have a guest room over there."
The landlord said with tears in his eyes, "I won't go. You two can't wait to receive a stack of threatening emails. I'll go join in the fun again, and three of them will be a good deal."
Lin Yuan said again, "stay with me."
Landlord: "Then you sleep in the lab every day, what's the difference between me and living alone?"
Lin Yuan: "..."
The landlord rarely looked like an elder, and said earnestly: "It's not the first time that Manson and the others have set their sights on me. It's not just my face that I can live so long. I know it!"
All three looked suspicious.
Landlord: "The safest thing to do now is to maintain the normal state on the surface. Isn't that what you said before? The normal state on the surface is where you should live. It's too obvious to move. The family is here, we can come and go safely, and focus on solving the problems at hand, and we can’t do without their secret protection.”
He said, took out his black market smartphone, and called up a message.
The From column shows a name: Devore Everth.
The content of the message is only four words:
- Rest assured.
"I received this message ten minutes ago," the landlord said. "Obviously, the enthusiastic young master conveyed the trouble I encountered to his father. In fact, I have never trusted businessmen, all businessmen. I I thought that they were all the same people, and they valued profits over friendship. Even before the bombing, I still had such doubts and had reservations about Mr. Eves. But I changed my mind later, and now I see such information, Thinking of the promises you two barristers gave before, I just feel fearless, all worries are superfluous."
He said to Gu Yan, "I heard that you have a good relationship with that young master Qiao? Remember to say something to me when I look back, when these rubbish things are over, I will write an apology letter for the past, and come to his father to do three things. 10,000-word review."
Gu Yan said: "It's better to tell me directly, I'll give you Qiao's private communication number."
The landlord quickly waved his hand: "No, no, save me some face as an elder."
Lin Yuan and the others were sent downstairs, and the landlord waved his hand and went home first. Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan entered the Gene Building to take a look at Horace Ji, who was brutally murdered by a nurse.
In the end, Lin Yuan was the only one who returned to the laboratory floor.
He also stayed up for a long time and did not sleep, and planned to go into the lounge to take a nap. Just as he was about to open the door and enter, he saw a tall and thin figure walking out of the lounge at the other end of the corridor.
Who is it if it's not curly
"Jacques???" Lin Yuan almost thought he was sleepy and had hallucinations.
Curly raised his hand at him, "Good afternoon."
His voice sounded hoarse, not as if he had slept at home, but more as if he had been in the hospital all night, at least.
Lin Yuan: "Didn't you rest today?"
Curly hair came closer and said, "Work overtime."
Lin Yuan really wanted to ask which class he joined, but he obviously didn't have anything to do with him recently. But he wanted to say more: why didn't you come out earlier? !
As long as three minutes early, the curly hair can hit his dad head-on!
"What are you doing, this look of beating your chest and stomping your feet?" Curly hair pressed against the tip of his nose and yawned twice. This made him look a little tired and lethargic. But this is not like the tiredness of staying up all night, but with a morbid exhaustion.
However, at this time, Lin Yuan didn't notice this subtle difference, so he hurried to the floor-to-ceiling window and glanced outside the hospital door. Unfortunately, the landlord had already left and couldn't be called back.
Lin Yuan gave a "tsk", glanced at Curly Hair with hatred, shook his head and said, "Forget it, I'll go to the lounge to sleep for a while. Do you still have to work overtime? Is the project progressing?"
After he asked this, he turned his head.
Curly also just looked back from the floor-to-ceiling window. He still pressed his nose to the tip of his nose, yawned two more times, then pinched the bridge of his nose and lowered his eyes, and said, "Well, there is still some work left."
"Have dinner together?" Lin Yuan asked.
"No." Curly said, "If you don't eat, it should be almost the afternoon. I will import the checked data into the analyzer and leave."
At that moment, Lin Yuan hesitated for a moment.
However, he quickly remembered that except himself, other people's authority to the instrument is only about 25%. The things he is studying now are encrypted, and even if other people use the instrument, they can't see the specific content, including the curly hair.
Instead, he can check everyone else's project progress and research.
Lin Yuan nodded, "Okay, then you finish early and rest early, see you later."
"Well." Curly hair paused for a while, "See you later."
