When talking about telomeres with Zhou Litao, Zheng Ren and Su Yun shut up at the same time.
The research project about telomeres and what follows is part of Berta's research project. Breakthroughs in tumor treatment based on genetic mutations in bats cannot be said casually.
When you don't know the truth, you can treat this topic as gossip. Everyone can chat casually, and it doesn't matter. But once you get involved, you will always feel a sense of caution.
"No more chatting, let's go see Mr. Cui." Su Yun ended the topic without hesitation.
Zheng Ren and Su Yun walked out of 912 and stood at the door waiting for a car.
"Boss, to be honest, I always have a bad feeling." Su Yundao said.
"What does it feel like?"
"I am Legend, have you seen it?"
"I've seen it. It's said that the virus that creates zombies was accidentally discovered when humans were researching cancer treatment drugs. In the end, it almost destroyed mankind." Zheng Rendao, "I think you are overthinking."
"I hope so." Su Yun rarely argued, but murmured.
"Think more of something useful. Although there may be unknown changes in modifying telomeres based on the genetic variation of bats, we always have to move forward." Zheng Ren squinted his eyes and looked at the sky.
"Human life is too short. I'm really curious about what's out there."
"My thoughts have blinded you." Su Yun said, "We will never see it again in this life."
"Almost." Zheng Ren smiled, but he didn't know clearly what he meant, and then asked, "When will the car arrive?"
"I've been chatting with Mr. Zhou for too long. It's the peak period." Su Yun sighed and said, "Do you remember that I am the butterfly in the legend?"
"What's wrong with you today?" Zheng Ren asked doubtfully.
"After returning from Bota, I occasionally wondered whether we would become sinners of mankind." Su Yun said.
"..." Zheng Ren was startled for a moment, then laughed and said: "You think too much. If you want to become a sinner of mankind, you must have that ability. I, maybe, but you, I guess it will be quite difficult."
"You can't say nice things in a polite way!" Su Yun said contemptuously.
"Tell the truth." Zheng Ren said with a smile: "Does the fallen angel Sheila have the power that even Satan is afraid of? This was the fear and thinking about genetic engineering at that time. It's okay, what do you think we will do if we encounter the end of the world? "
"A knife and a dog." Su Yun said contemptuously.
"The West is waiting for Noah's Ark, bullshit redemption. We are mending the sky when it leaks. We just do it when we encounter something. We think so much." Zheng Ren patted Su Yun's shoulder.
"It's not like your character to be reckless all the way to the end."
"I don't have a personality, I always have something to do. Don't think so much. Do you think it's bad that we don't take anything with us every time we visit Mr. Cui?" Zheng Ren asked.
But Su Yun still had no intention of stopping the topic. He ignored Zheng Ren's statement and asked: "Boss, you said that after genetic changes cure cancer, what if the little stone mutates?"
"Human beings will eventually become spiritual bodies. It's too difficult for our brains to understand these things." Zheng Ren said, "Don't think about it. You won't grow up if you think too much. You said that Xiao Shitou has difficulty breathing, What’s the matter with the phlegm?”
"I didn't understand." Su Yun sighed, "Today's record said that Xiao Shitou coughed up about 100ml of phlegm every day. It was all phlegm like water. Even after two tests, no bacteria were found."
"I didn't understand it either." Zheng Rendao, "I can only guess that the drug stimulated the tumor tissue, causing some unpredictable situations to occur. Or it happened to happen, and the relevant symptoms appeared at the right time when taking the drug."
"Botta's email said they are working on improving the drug and it will take a few days."
"Take your time, I hope nothing happens." Zheng Ren looked at the flaming clouds in the sky and said softly.
The clouds today are a bit beautiful, red and layered, a bit dazzling, but can be seen directly.
After a while, Su Yun finally got into the car, and the two rushed to Mr. Cui's house.
After ringing the doorbell and going upstairs, the nanny saw the two of them after opening the door, greeted them and went to work. A man in his fifties wearing an apron was cooking. Zheng Ren guessed that he was Mr. Cui's son. He greeted him politely.
"Hello, we are doctors from 912. We are here to see Mr. Cui." Zheng Ren explained his identity and purpose of visit.
Before the man could speak, Mr. Cui's weak voice came from the back room, "Xiao Zheng, you are here, come in."
The voice was very weak, even weaker than the last time he came to see Mr. Cui.
After changing his shoes and entering the house, Zheng Ren glanced at the kitchen, smiled and greeted the people inside, and then entered Mr. Cui's room.
The system panel has begun to turn white, but Mr. Cui seems to be in good spirits, not like a dying old man.
"Xiao Zheng, Xiao Su, sit down." Mr. Cui tried hard to sit up.
But he didn't have much strength, so it was difficult to do such a simple movement. Zheng Ren wanted to help, but Mr. Cui pushed him away.
"It's okay, you should always do some proper exercise." Mr. Cui said with a smile.
His left arm was propped on the edge of the bed, exerting force. The skin on the dry, thin arms was loose and loose. Every time he exerted force, the muscles under the skin seemed to be trying hard to burst out some strength. But every time it was just a little bit off, I still couldn't sit up.
Zheng Ren and Su Yun watched quietly, watching a stubborn old man trying hard to sit up.
In the end, Mr. Cui gave up.
When he first decided to give up, Mr. Cui's expression was a little depressed, but then he became calm and calm. The old man had silently accepted all these changes.
He lay on the bed and looked sideways at Zheng Ren and Su Yun. Looking at their overflowing vitality, he smiled and said, "I'm really old. I could sit up on my own three days ago. To say I'm old, I still can't. It’s really not something that people can resist. When I was as young as you, I felt that I would always be so energetic. It was so good at that time, like a wild ass.”
"Mr. Cui, look at what you said." Su Yun said with a smile, "Let me tell you, there is less than a month left. We are going to Stockholm to receive the award when it starts to snow, and the boss has to make a speech. , don’t you want to see it with your own eyes, why don’t you come with us?”
"But I can't walk." Cui Lao's voice was weak and weak. He wanted to shake his head, but his movements were barely visible. "You did very well, very well, far beyond my imagination."
"It's not enough." Seeing that his boss didn't seem to know what to say, Su Yun took over Mr. Cui's words and said, "Mr. Cui, what do you think we have been busy with recently?"
