Three months later, in a four-story residential building in Cambridge, Emma was calling Gabi in her room.

"Sister, don't you really need our help over there?"

"No, you can live over there in peace, school is about to start, right?"

"Well, Xiaolan and I and Gibson are going to start school next week, but it's very close to home, so we can live at home. ”

"Well, so you don't have to be separated, Anna?"

"Anna and Mason are already attending a school in the neighborhood, and I think Mason loves the way it looks. Anna is fine, but Leo is in some trouble!"

"What's wrong with him? Wasn't the last two days good?"

"I shouldn't have listened to him in the first place, what kind of fake death! Sure enough, Xiaolan said it, it's only been three months, and he can't help it! Every day he rushes to go out with Mason. And when he pretended to be Mason, he was always out and about, and Mason had to help him deal with it the next day!"

"Haha! No wonder you said he was premeditated, now it seems that he has wanted to impersonate Mason for a long time!

"Of course it does, Xiaolan said that if he really can't do it, let Gibson's family help Leo get another identity, and he can't always let him go on like this. But Leo doesn't agree, so he wants you to get him some clothes!"

"What clothes?"

"I don't know the specifics, he should be able to call you in a moment!"

"Okay! I'll ask him when he calls. But you've got to watch him, he's not that peaceful!"

"Got it, you and the boss are also paying attention to your body over there, if there's anything you need our help with, you must tell me!"

"Got it! If I can't handle it, I won't be polite to you!"

Emma and Gabi spoke on the phone and walked out of the room to the first floor. It was breakfast time, and everyone else in the kitchen on the first floor, including Merelin and Dr. Merelin, was sitting at the table eating breakfast.

Leo asked the doctor, "Doctor, how is your research going, and are there any breakthroughs?"

The doctor sighed and said, "Hey, there is still no progress, it seems that in our genes, the brain activity can only reach 35%, and if we want to improve it, it will not be possible, as if we are limited to 35% by something." If you want to improve again, you may have to change your genes first!"

Xiaolan asked, "How can I change the gene, and can the gene be changed?"

The Doctor laughed and said, "Changing genes? It's so easy, because you've changed a lot." In other words, you can no longer be counted as human!"

Several people present, except for Mason, all showed surprised expressions, and Xiaolan asked, "Our genes have changed? Why don't we feel it?"

The doctor said: "Your genetic changes should be changed by the brain on their own, not by external forces, so even if they change, you will not feel it." This was the conclusion reached by analyzing your blood samples six months ago. The difference between your current DNA and that of a normal human ranges from 5% to 8%, and the biggest difference is Leo, which may have something to do with his ability to control his body. ”

Knowing this result, everyone didn't react much, but Xiaolan showed a worried look and asked, "Doctor, what are we now?"

The Doctor said, "I don't know how to position you, and in your abilities, I can say responsibly that you have surpassed humanity by too much. Maybe you should be called superhuman, or new human. ”

Leo smiled and said, "Superman? I like it! I like to be a hero!"

Xiaolan reminded: "Leo, don't be happy yet! Doctor, haven't you given your research results to anyone else?"

The doctor nodded and said, "Of course, I haven't perfected my research yet, and if I publish it, I will be laughed at! Besides, if it does, it may have some impact on you!

Xiaolan got up from her seat, bowed politely to the doctor, and said, "Thank you, doctor, for thinking so much about us!"

The doctor glanced at Xiaolan with deep meaning, and said with a smile: "Why are you so polite! You are like my children, how can I do something unfavorable to you!"

"I'm not exactly here for that, I want to ask you, please never publish your research!"

The others all looked at Xiaolan in astonishment, only the doctor looked at Xiaolan meaningfully. Anna asked, "Why not let the PhD be published, it was his life's work and it has been successful." We are the best example of this! I think a Ph.D. could win the Nobel Prize in Biology for this work!"

Xiaolan said: "I don't know if the Nobel Prize in biology will be won, but Fan human sin, it will definitely be awarded to him!"

Anna asked, "Why?"

The doctor smiled and said, "What Xiaolan said is not wrong! I already know what to do! I still have to see if I can update this project, if not." I'm going to destroy everything! I'm going to let anyone but Mason know. After saying that, he looked at Gibson and said, "Gibson, can you make me a program or device that can destroy everything in the computer with one click? ”

Gibson nodded and said, "That's fine! It's very simple, I'll do a program when I get back." You can also make an external switch, just press it!"

Confused, Anna asked, "What's wrong with you, why did you destroy the doctor's research, and if they were destroyed, what would happen to our snacks?"

Leo smiled and said, "You snack! The doctor must have a way to solve it, I can't starve you!"

The Doctor smiled at Anna, and Ran explained to Anna, "I'll tell you, why don't you let the Doctor publish his research." What do you think of the current capabilities of the eight of us?"

Anna said: "Of course it is very strong! Whether it is the body or the mind, it is several times or even dozens of times that of ordinary people!"

"Yes, I can say that we're already a bunch of supermen now." And we are all very self-disciplined, and we also have a good outlook on life and values, which is all due to the doctors and Merelin. So we can be the real supermen who protect humanity, but what if there is a group of people who use their superhuman abilities to do evil? So what? That will bring disaster to mankind instead of welfare! So we can't let things go in the worst direction. The best thing to do is to destroy all the data. ”

Emma said: "After Xiaolan's reminder, I thought of another question. That's the controllers, whether they've been genetically modified. How could they be so strong! Are they also developed by the brain?"

Everyone fell into thought, but soon Xiaolan said: "I can't rule out this possibility, because I heard from the boss that the body of James who was killed by Mason was snatched away, and they even used dozens of people to snatch the body." This shows that they care a lot about James's body, and if it is obtained by the Federation, it may be unfavorable to them, so they have to take it back. ”

Leo rolled his eyes and said, "It seems that our enemies are not ordinary people! But even if they are not ordinary people, they will die, as long as they die, we will have a way to deal with them!"

At this time, Gibson, who was listening to the analysis of several people on the side, didn't know what he remembered, and his face suddenly turned red. After that, he was a little embarrassed and asked the doctor, "Doctor, do you think our genes will be inherited?"

Leo was a little younger, not knowing what Gibson meant, while Ran pursed her lips and snickered and didn't speak. Emma blushed more than Gibson and glared at Gibson with her eyes.

When the doctor saw the reactions of several people, he laughed and said, "Of course it will be inherited! And after the recombination of inherited genes, more powerful genes may appear!"

Leo and the others listened to the doctor's explanation before they understood what Gibson meant, and Anna smiled without giving face: "Brother Gibson, you want to have a little Superman with Sister Emma so soon? You don't seem to be eighteen years old, are you? Are you already ......?"

Emma finally couldn't stand the teasing glances of the others, and stood up and said to Anna, "Don't talk nonsense! Then he ran upstairs.

When Emma went upstairs, all eyes were on Gibson. Gibson surrendered, "I just wanted to ask! We really haven't done anything." I ask this question, mainly for the boss!"

The eyes of several people showed that they did not believe Gibson's words at all, and then the doctor spoke: "Don't be happy yet, the question of this next generation is one of my worries. Because your genes have changed so much compared to ordinary people, don't look at the difference of 5% to 8%, if it is in nature, it will take millions of years of evolution to occur. And this difference will lead to no offspring between you and ordinary people!"

"What?"

Several people who were still making Gibson jokes, including Merellin, were shocked by the doctor's words. Leo and the others didn't expect that the difference between himself and ordinary people would be so big. Although they look the same as humans on the surface, from a biological point of view, they are no longer the same species as ordinary humans!

The doctor continued, "Not only that! Because there are also some genetic differences between you. So Gibson, it's not easy for you and Emma to have a child of their own! It's the same with Robert and Gabby, so they've been in the same room for almost a year now, and Gabby hasn't been pregnant, and it's related to your genes. ”

At this time, Emma, who stopped on the stairs to eavesdrop on them, also came down and said, "Why is this happening? Sister Gabby wants to have her own children the most, but they haven't been, and she thinks it's because of her own body?"

Everyone was shocked by this conclusion and couldn't speak, Xiaolan suddenly felt a little confused, she muttered to herself: "Doctor, what are we now? are we really superhuman or new humans? I think we are just a group of stronger mules" (Mules are the offspring of donkeys and horses, mules are stronger than horses and donkeys, but they do not have their own reproductive ability!)

The doctor said to Xiaolan: "Don't position yourself so pessimistically, let alone deny yourself, I only said that it is difficult for them to get pregnant, but I did not say that they must not be able to conceive naturally." And you're not mules, you're definitely new humans. Not only do you have brains and bodies that ordinary humans don't have, but I think you're going to be the result of the natural evolution and development of humanity, and you're just a little bit ahead of time. Not only can your genes be inherited, but your offspring will grow stronger and stronger. So don't look at it that way! You are the most powerful human beings, if you still think you are human. ”

"Of course we are human, because we have not only mothers like Merelin, but also brothers and sisters who look like us. We are all still human beings, we have the same appearance, the same language, and similar emotions to others, which means that we are human beings, but we are a little smarter than ordinary people. ”

After listening to Emma's words, everyone also felt more in their hearts that they were human beings, maybe this was just their self-deception, but this was the premise and foundation for them to be able to integrate into the overall human society in the future.

If they really think that they are already new humans, superhumans, then they will value this difference more and more, and even have a sense of rejection for ordinary people. The consequence of this is either that they use their abilities to rule the entire human world, or that they are destroyed by the entire human world. This is also the last thing Xiaolan wants to see, so they can only choose to deceive themselves. For now, this is the best thing to do.
