Don’t get me wrong, NZT-48 is not the 48-series girl idol group loved by the losers of Heisei, but it comes from a 2012 movie.
This is a drug that stimulates the brain's potential.
What is brain potential
Theoretically, the human brain can remember everything it has seen, heard, and sensed.
But in fact, human memory is always the most unreliable thing in the world.
For example, during exams, those knowledge points and complex questions have been learned and reviewed before, but due to memory and mental problems, if you can't answer them, you just can't answer them.
Research on brain neurons shows that although the utilization rate of our brains is 100%, from an evolutionary perspective, the human brain does still have potential that can be tapped.
The potential here is not "only part of the brain is used, and part of it is idle", but "on the basis of fully utilizing it, it can become smarter."
And NZT-48 is a drug that can make people smarter.
It allows people to retrieve memories deep in their minds at any time and automatically integrate that knowledge into their minds.
By taking this drug, users can achieve photographic memory, gain amazing insights and logical thinking, and can even reintegrate some details and information that are not easily noticed at ordinary times, and quickly draw conclusions in their minds.
For example, the thinking and memory of ordinary people is like a messy and damp warehouse, in which all kinds of memory books are piled up in a messy way, making it extremely difficult to read anything from them.
After taking the drug, people's thinking and memory become rows of library-style bookshelves. Each memory is placed in the corresponding position in categories and can be found at a glance.
However, like those previous drugs, NZT-48 also has serious side effects.
In the original work, this drug is actually a hint of drug D, which is a novel that satirizes current North American society.
In the movie, this drug is as addictive as drug D. Once it is stopped, it will cause a severe withdrawal reaction.
Including headaches, dizziness, memory loss and even...
brain death.
However, this is not a reason to scare Chen Chen away.
Even the drugs in the movie are not without side effects. How could Chen Chen not understand that there is no such thing as a free lunch
What's more, Chen Chen himself is a biology major. With his professional counterpart, he can also learn from the protagonist in the movie to develop the corresponding antidote to eliminate the side effects.
Thinking of this, Chen Chen immediately turned on his computer and downloaded the entire "Never Ending".
"Ding!"
After more than ten minutes of waiting, the movie was successfully downloaded. Chen Chen copied it into the USB flash drive without saying a word, and then clicked play—
As the long shot opens, the iconic blue eyes of the protagonist Eddie Mora appear on the screen...
Chen Chen held down the movie progress bar and slowly dragged it, finally freezing the scene on the protagonist finding the big bag of NZT-48 that his brother-in-law Vern had hidden in the oven.
"right here!"
Chen Chen murmured in a low voice, and at the same time, he stretched out his hand towards the screen like a ghost.
Immediately, a shocking scene happened...
In the picture, the bag of NZT-48 wrapped in a sealed bag floated out of thin air and slowly floated towards the camera.
At the same time, Chen Chen's hand seemed to penetrate the screen and get closer to the other party little by little...
Following a slight touch, Chen Chen subconsciously clenched his right hand!
When he came to his senses, there was already a palm-sized sealed bag filled with unknown pills in his hand!
Success!
Chen Chen stood up with a clang, a look of ecstasy in his eyes.
He looked through the plastic bag in his hand with great curiosity, feeling as if he was in a dream!
"Relax, relax, Chen Chen, you still have a lot to do..."
Chen Chen forced himself to calm down, and then deleted the USB drive letter. When the computer prompted that the USB drive could be taken out, Chen Chen dared to pull the USB drive out of the computer.
U disk…
It wasn't until he saw the current appearance of the USB flash drive that Chen Chen finally calmed down.
After showing a whole bag of NZT-48, the USB flash drive had become extremely dark and completely without any luster, just like a piece of garbage that had been beaten by wind and rain and abandoned for decades.
Hope it can be recharged...
Chen Chen prayed silently. He touched his pocket, but he didn't know where to put the USB disk.
Put it in your pocket? The quality of the pocket is so poor, what if it leaks
Put it in the closet? What if someone picks the lock
Hiding under the bed? Not even safe...
At this time, Chen Chen was like a farmer who suddenly obtained a treasure. He felt uneasy no matter where he hid the treasure.
In the end, Chen Chen simply found some tape, tied the USB flash drive to his left arm, and wrapped it four or five times before giving up.
Then, Chen Chen started the anti-virus software, deleted all the records on the computer, and then shut down the computer.
"By the way, there are these..."
Chen Chen took out the notes he had just recorded and two Pikachu hats. At the same time, he found a lighter in the drawer, got up and walked towards the toilet.
When he came to the toilet, he lit the notes and threw them to the ground, and then threw the two hats into the fire.
Five minutes later, Chen Chen walked out of the toilet. He swept all the ashes from the burning into the toilet and flushed them into the sewer. He only waited until the ventilation fan discharged the smoke smell, and everything was safe.
After touching the bag of medicine in his underwear pocket, Chen Chen did not go back to the dormitory, but went downstairs and walked towards the Experimental Animal Center.
As a student at the Zhongzhou District Shangdu University College of Science and Technology, although I haven't yet been diverted to a major, I understand that any new drug needs to go through clinical trials.
After all, only the devil knows what the ingredients of NZT-48 extracted from the USB flash drive are. Chen Chen is not stupid enough to test the medicine on his own body.
There are currently no conditions for clinical trials, but a few animal tests are still possible.
Arriving at the Experimental Animal Center, Chen Chen bought eight Kunming mice, a pair of M1 model experimental mouse cages, and some equipment.
With this, Chen Chen did not go back to the dormitory or the laboratory building, but came outside the school.
There are many people in the dormitory, and the laboratory has monitoring records, so it is not suitable for experiments.
Finally, Chen Chen took two cages of Kunming mice and booked a standard room in a hotel not far from the school.
After arriving in the room, Chen Chen locked the door, then took out a black color pen and numbered the two cages of white mice. Each cage was numbered 1 to 4, and they were divided into two groups.
Then, it’s time to experiment.
Chen Chen needs to conduct a toxicity test on NZT-48 drugs in mice.
Chen Chen bought pure-line medical mice. The organ structure and immune response of this kind of mice are similar to humans. The genome is very similar to humans. Many human diseases can have similar symptoms in mice.
In short, theoretically, if these mice cannot die if they eat NZT-48, then Chen Chen cannot die if they eat it.
He first sterilized the experimental equipment he had purchased before, then took out an NZT-48 tablet and weighed it. He calculated the dosage for the mice based on his own weight, then mixed it into a solution and diluted it proportionally.
After completing the preliminary preparations, Chen Chen took out mouse No. 1 from the cage, and used a gavage needle to inject NZT-48 solution into No. 1 in an equal proportion to his body weight.
As for mouse No. 2, Chen Chen gave him twice the dose, No. 3 three times, and No. 4 four times.
The mice in the second group of cages were the same as above.
After filling the drug, Chen Chen kept the remaining NZT-48 solution in a sealed bottle, and then carefully observed the reactions of the two groups of mice.
What made Chen Chen slightly reassured was that even with four times the dose of No. 4 white mouse, there was no change.
If we talk about the reaction, it seems to be more lively than before...
Waiting until 6 o'clock in the evening, there was no abnormality in the two cages of mice.
Chen Chen breathed a sigh of relief. At least it was confirmed that the NZT-48 contained in the mysterious USB flash drive was not acutely toxic.
Chronic toxicity still needs to be observed for a while.
7 days, this is the time Chen Chen expected.
As long as there are no abnormalities within 7 days, Chen Chen will start his cheating journey.
I opened 50-50 without cheating!
