It has been a month since the tsunami passed, and after the foundation of the new house is laid, construction is being carried out at an astonishing speed every day.
The sentinel seemed to have endless strength, and often looked at Hua Mu in a stunned and regretful manner—why wasn't this strength spent on her
Fortunately, the eldest lady was still somewhat reserved and rational. Looking at her slightly swollen legs, she silently swallowed bitter tears.
Rehabilitation time is always boring, let alone in such a situation where there is no way to advance or retreat. In addition to occasionally developing Luna's abilities, Hua Mu spent most of her time looking at that big box of materials.
She had already counted the number of documents, a total of 132 books, including 38 items, in alphabetical order, there are two items from A to L, and one item from M to Z.
This is obviously only the tip of the iceberg in the entire "Hand of Angels" plan, but the staff who have access to 32 projects are certainly not grassroots employees.
The naming of the projects is very arbitrary, although most of them are named after the name of the former cancer cell line - such as "A431", "A549", "RAJI", "MCF-7", but there are also projects such as "Bazinga" and "Bleach". Means unknown project name.
When Hua Mu was sorting out, he found that not all projects were named in the form of letters and numbers, but after explaining it through White Pillow, he realized how pretentious and careless these so-called scientists are.
It took Hua Mu a long time to finish reading the two projects starting with A. One was because she didn't know much about the terminology, and the other was because she was distracted by the way she was working with a white pillow.
Each project has 3 to 4 documents, the observation report should be recorded by the staff of the project, and only one of them is the discussion and summary record of the project by the two responsible persons.
Because many projects are carried out in parallel, Hua Mu sees the two people citing the results of other projects in the record book - the "Hela" project quickly caught her attention.
Hela, not only the word for a dead woman in a certain region's mythology, but also the name of the first cancer cell line in history that was successfully cultured in vitro. It proliferates faster than other cancer cell lines and even contaminates many other cell lines during laboratory culture.
Hela is called an "immortal" cell because it avoids the Hayflick limit by maintaining telomerase activity during division.
This project is obviously a top priority, and even has the strong support of a certain Eastern Empire royal family, which is one of the reasons why Hua Mu is interested.
She skipped all the other items between A to H and read its material first.
The original intention of the Hela project was to cultivate the legendary dark sentinels who did not need wizards. Because the experimental individuals were cultivated with royal genes authorized by a certain monarch, their status was very special in the whole plan - it can be said that many projects are working for it serves.
For example, "bleach" can be understood as bleaching, or as a result of the project, which can be extended to the meaning of death according to a once very popular comic, and finally used in Hela.
Not only has the ability of a sentinel and a guide, but also has a rapidly recovering body, able to grow rapidly and never die. It can neither feel pain nor have feelings, it is the most ideal, most powerful and most dangerous weapon.
However, Hua Mu did not know the final result of this experiment, and the last pages of the materials were torn out.
Because she was so engaged, she even forgot to make lunch.
Hua Mu still feels horrified by those cold descriptions, still feels heartache because of the cruel experiments suffered by the experimental subjects, and still thinks that such experiments are extremely unethical.
But on the other hand, she couldn't help being curious, couldn't help wanting to explore, couldn't help wanting to know the result.
She is a young lady who has almost never been in the field of scientific research. How can those scientists not be crazy
Judging from the previous process, this project is very likely to be successful, but the result of tearing it off still makes Hua Mu feel lost. This loss shocked her and quickly aroused her vigilance.
Is she expecting the result
Hua Mu threw the information on the table, feeling a little annoyed at herself - she must have been bored on the island for too long, so she was fascinated by this kind of thing.
Bai Zhen didn't see Hua Mu making lunch for a long time, and saw her lying motionless on a chair from a distance, thinking she was unwell, put down her work and hurried over.
"Miss, what's the matter with you? Is there something wrong with you?"
The surrounding trees have all been cut down by White Pillow, and there is almost a few hundred square meters of open space for the two of them to work and rest. The reclining chairs are placed under the shade of trees, so that you can take a rest and read a book.
"No... I'll make lunch right away, you can rest for a while."
The taro was simmered in the fire early in the morning, and it should be fully cooked by this time, and then make a bacon and mushroom soup to make do with it.
"I'll do it at noon, you have a good rest."
Seeing her dispirited expression, Bai Zhen was a little worried.
"I'm fine, I'm just tired of reading. Just make a soup. You go wash your hands first. The mushrooms dried well this time, and you'll have a good time."
There was not much left over from the hoisin sauce made before, so Hua Mu had to hit the fungus. Fortunately, the white pillow is a sentinel, and he is born in the tropics, and can judge what can and cannot be eaten.
Although the lunch was not rich, it still made people move under the skillful hands of Hua Mu. The marinated wild boar slices are boiled with bamboo fungus, which not only makes the soup delicious, but also saves sea salt. Taro dipped in oyster sauce, fish sauce or mushroom sauce does not require any special cooking.
Bai Zhen didn't feel that Hua Mu was perfunctory at all, and ate with relish. Hua Mu had a hard time swallowing, propped up her chin and sighed faintly.
"Ugh… "
"What's wrong with you, Miss? Are you unhappy?"
The sentinel tried hard to think about whether he said something wrong or did something wrong to make her unhappy.
Hua Mu glanced at her and sighed again.
It was all to blame that the sentinel was ineffective, causing her to have time to read books, and then to think wildly.
"Miss, eldest, what did I do to make you..."
"No!" Hua Mu was so angry that it wasn't what he did, but what he didn't do!
"Then how do you..."
Forget it, she knows, the white pillow is for her sake.
"It's not because of those things. How can you say that humans are so cruel sometimes?"
Because cruelty is human nature.
Bai Zhen pursed her lips and was silent for a while, then slowly said: "Do you think they are cruel?"
"Of course it's cruel. Creating life for human experiments is extremely sinful in every way."
"But they say that this is science, for human progress... or evolution. They say that the path of human development was originally built up by life. Isn't there animal experimentation in conventional laboratories?"
"How can it be the same? Human experiments can only exist in clinical medicine, and the principle of informed consent of subjects must be strictly followed. Comparing people with animals... Where does this sophistry of extreme animal protection people come from?"
"Then what if these research subjects are 'non-human'? You should have read some materials. Regardless of the opinions of the two discussants, it can be seen from the report that the researchers did not regard the experimental subjects as Humans. After gene editing, there are some experimental individuals who don't know what kind of organism's genes are mixed in, and they can't be called human for a long time."
Hua Mu didn't know why Bai Zhen said such a thing. It could be seen that she was not trying to argue for these people, but looked like she was looking for an answer.
"I don't know who gave them the power to define what is human, is it from God? In my opinion, each of these subjects is a living human being. What's more, in their coding with human genes When they started, they were already conducting human experiments. Rather than saying that the subjects of the experiments were non-human, these researchers were more like inhumans, right?"
Curiosity is more of an animal nature, not only universal in humans, but also in many animals. It can be said that it is a major driving force for animal survival and human progress. As scientists, these researchers will naturally have a greater spirit of exploration.
But the reason why human beings are human beings, the reason why they can maintain human arrogance, and the reason why they can look down at animals condescendingly, is because human beings follow the so-called ethics.
In Hua Mu's view, rather than saying that human life is more noble than that of animals, it is better to say that the life of the same kind is the last bottom line of human beings who are above all things. This is the last constraint that human beings impose on themselves. If a person cannot even follow this, then he is not worthy of being a human being. If the whole society cannot follow it, then society will collapse.
Bai Zhen looked at Hua Mu and seemed to be stunned.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like this?" Hua Mu touched her face and asked suspiciously, "Is there anything on my face?"
Bai Zhen smiled and shook his head slowly, "No, Miss, I just think you're right."
Hua Mu cute listened to the white pillow complimenting herself, and smiled proudly.
"Of course, how could I be wrong?"
"Then what do you think... what if these experimental subjects survived and returned to society?"
This is a very real problem, although it should have been solved decades ago.
As the heir to the throne, Hua Mu, even if he was not taught deliberately, would subconsciously put himself in that position to think. This is Hua Mu's contradiction and also her preciousness.
"It's not them who are wrong, they are also victims. If they are rescued and have the opportunity to return to society, I think the state has the obligation and responsibility to make appropriate arrangements according to the specific situation. Of course, children with physical defects must receive necessary treatment, and healthy Children, those who are young and do not remember anything can be sent to ordinary families to raise them, and those who are sensible should be psychologically counseled to help them live an ordinary life. If it is not possible, set up special funds and institutions to deal with it. Said that? This kind of experiment is still going on in some dark corners, and it is necessary in the long run."
White pillow nodded and praised: "Miss, you will definitely become an excellent queen."
Hua Mu raised his chin, showing a proud look. It's just that the complacency didn't last for a few seconds, and when she thought of the reality, she felt a little shy.
"What are you talking about as a queen now, do you want to be a queen on this island? Be the king of animals, the king of the forest, the king of the ocean? You don't even have a subject!"
The sentinel suddenly held her hand boldly and said seriously and cautiously: "Miss, you still have me, I am your subject. I will respect you, protect you and take care of you... I love you, even if I am your only one. Subject, I will also make you a unique queen."
Mom! ! !
Hua Mu is about to explode! ! !
The sentinel of her house, the wife and wife are hidden! What kind of fairy love words are these, so that she couldn't help but want to dry firewood on the spot!
Queen Preco is okay!
