Chapter 76 There is no choice but to take a desperate gamble
And just two weeks later, the experiment finally came to fruition.
It can even be said that it is the biggest breakthrough.
As early as the period of Qian Yikang and Gao Minghua, the SIR2 protease activity experiment had reached the stage before the breakthrough, and after I took over their work, the breakthrough of the SIR2 gene experiment can be said to be logical, it is only a matter of time.
But what I didn't expect was that the breakthrough of that experiment brought me the biggest challenge.
I think that if there is no breakthrough in the experiment, I am afraid that I will not finally break with Brother K, and I will not make the most dangerous move.
The beginning of the final battle with Brother K was on the second weekend of Xueqi's winter vacation.
Early that morning, while Xue Qi was still sleeping, I received a call from a rat from one of the experimenters who performed the SIR2 protease extraction experiment, and he told me that the SIR2 gene and the NAD coenzyme were limiting by 70% In the case of calories, they are already 60% sure that the SIR2 gene can replicate the tail chain of biological genes, and inhibit the wear and tear of biological genes by destroying the original worn gene tail chain and replacing it, so that the aging of biological life can be inhibited in the case of the loss of a part of the cell body. If this technology is to be applied to humans, the biggest problem now is to find a suitable test subject.
I asked rats what would happen if they were implanted with this gene.
The mouse told me that the SIR2 gene is a gene that destroys the wear and tear of the human body by repairing the tail chain of the human gene, just like a lizard shedding a dead broken tail and then regrowing the broken tail with dividing cells, the new cells and genes will be more vigorous than the original ones, but it takes time for the new cells to grow.
The cell replacement cycle of the human body is about 7 years, so if the human body is implanted with this gene, it may cause a large number of cells throughout the body to die and peel off, and then after a period of coma, on the basis of stripping off the dead cells, the new cells will form the original organs and tissues, however, all kinds of organs in the human body, except for the bones that have been solidified, may degenerate for 7-10 years.
What the rat told me was a theoretical result, and since no real experiments on living organisms have been conducted, it is difficult to determine the true effect of this gene, so it is difficult to say the result. However, the mouse told me that if I wanted to find someone to experiment with at this stage, I had to find someone whose bone line was not closed. That is, it is possible to succeed in the experiment before the end of development, otherwise even if the experimenter's organs are degenerated, but because the current bone degeneration technology is not yet mature, if the experimenter with the bone line has been closed, the result will be the experimenter's body tissue, and the direct result will only be the death of the experimenter.
Mouse told me that if I wanted to find someone to experiment, the experimenter had to be a woman under 18 or a man under 20, and the younger the better.
When I heard the words of the mouse, my heart fluttered to the ground.
Women under the age of 18 or men under the age of 20......
When I heard the news, I felt like I had been struck by lightning.
In an instant, I suddenly understood why Brother K pulled me into the trap.
I also understood what the real test of the people of the agency was for me.
Female subjects under 18 years of age......
Xueqi!
Xue Qi's face flashed in my mind, and a sense of fear and oppression that made my whole body tremble involuntarily transmitted from all directions.
No wonder Brother K asked me for this experiment.
No wonder he thinks I'm the best fit.
It turned out that he had already planned it.
"I see. Let's experiment on molluscs first. I hung up the mouse's phone, and then I went to the balcony, where the confinement was playing the violin, and when she saw me coming out with a heavy heart, she knew that I was in trouble, but I made a silent gesture to her, and the confinement immediately didn't ask me much.
I opened the collar and dialed Brother K's phone.
"Hey, Brother K. I asked in a voice devoid of any emotion.
"If you have something, just say it. You should have called me so early to report on the progress of the experiment, right?" Brother K's lazy voice came, and the thin voice made my teeth tremble.
"The trial product of the 2 gene has come out. Now we are in the stage of experimenting with organisms. If the test is successful, it can be applied to humans. "I reported the progress of the experiment to Brother K word by word.
"Tut-tut, that's good. Yang Jiandong, you really didn't disappoint me. Yes, that's good. β
Brother K replied to me in a weird voice of yin and yang, I really don't know if he was born with this voice or deliberately pretended to be this voice to me. But this sound that makes people want to vomit really makes me hate it.
"Well, then, I'll wait to hear your good news. Yang Jiandong. Thanks to your work, you might be able to climb up soon. "After listening to my report, Brother K seems to be in a good mood, which is the best thing I have heard in a while.
"Wait a minute, Brother K, I have one more thing to tell you. Hearing that Brother K seemed to be about to hang up the phone, I hurriedly stopped him.
"Say~~"
"Now that the SIR2 gene experiment has reached the stage of organism experimentation, I estimate that I will try human experiments in a while...... According to Mouse, the test subjects should be men and women whose bone lines are not closed, so I want to ask Brother K to help me find some test subjects. Whether it's an abandoned baby or a disabled person, as long as you can find one. "I told Brother K the truth.
However, before I could speak, Brother K replied a little impatiently:
"Is there a mistake, Yang Jiandong? Look for me for this kind of thing? Hahaha, what do you think of me, are you doing it? If you can't solve this kind of thing yourself, don't want to continue to mix in our agency. As for me, I'm very busy, and if you have a bit of a difference, I can help you calm it down through connections. However, don't bother me about looking for experimental subjects, because looking for experimental subjects can be regarded as an investigation of you from above. Brother K rejected my request with very unkind words, and every word of Brother K could arouse the anger in my heart, and at that moment, I really wanted to pinch the collar on my wrist on the spot.
"If you don't find me a test subject, don't try to go on. At that moment, I almost forcibly suppressed the anger in my heart and said these words to Brother K, "The people above will also ask you for guilt." β
"Mmmm~~ You want to use the people above me to suppress me, what are you?" Brother K laughed again, "Yang Jiandong, don't be too self-righteous. Otherwise, you will only suffer. Since you want to test the subject, I'll give you a suggestion. Subjects under 18 years of age...... Don't you tell me I can't bear to experiment with her. A word of caution, the top authorities take this experiment very seriously, and if this experiment succeeds, you can hopefully climb to the same status as me. β
"It's up to you how you do it. When the experiment is successful, notify me, I will give you the transaction address of the experimental data and the finished product, and you will come to me alone. β
Brother K reminded him with a smile, and then he hung up the phone.
The voice in the collar stopped abruptly, but the shuddering voice of Brother K still echoed in my heart.
When there was no more sound on the other end of the phone, I felt like my blood was clotting all over my body.
There's no way Brother K can help me find a test subject......
What am I going to do?
Am I going to sacrifice Xueqi and conduct experiments?
What are you kidding, how is that possible?!
What to do?
What am I going to do?
Can I continue this experiment?
"Damn, what the hell am I supposed to do!!" In a fit of rage, my fist slammed into the railing, and the sharp pain from the collision of iron and fist made me a little more sane.
"Brother. The voice of the moon came from the side, and I gasped heavily, but I saw the moon standing beside me depressed, with a melancholy face.
"Yuezi, did you hear the call just now?" I raised my head and looked at Yuezi, but Yuezi's beautiful face couldn't infect me at all.
At this moment, in the face of a great threat, I was surprised to find that no emotion, any memory, or beauty could enter my heart.
"I hear you. Brother, calm down. Yuezi walked up to me with a calm face, she took out a handkerchief from her pocket with a violin in one hand, and carefully wiped the beads of sweat from my forehead.
Feeling the softness of the confinement handkerchief and looking at the amber eyes of the confinement child, I calmed down a little.
"Yuezi, I can't help it. When Yuezi's handkerchief left my face, I said to Yuezi, "Zhou Qishi asked my experiment to be an illegal human experiment. And the subject must be a minor...... You say, what should I do?"
Yuezi looked at me steadily.
Her eyes were also complicated.
At such a time, it is really difficult for personal talent to turn the tide.
"You're not going to sacrifice Xueqi, are you, brother?" Yuezi looked me in the eye and asked me.
I looked into her eyes, but in my mind, there was chaos.
Will I let go of Xueqi?
Speaking of which, the reason for joining Sanxin in the first place, in the final analysis, can be traced back to Xue Qi. If it weren't for Xueqi, I wouldn't have joined Sanxin, and maybe I wouldn't have today.
"......" I took my eyes off Tsukiko's face and looked at the gray sky.
In my heart, I was thinking about Xueqi.
Fourteen years.
It's been fourteen years since I picked up Xueqi.
It's incredibly fast.
Fourteen years ago, I was just a ridiculous hairy boy who didn't know anything, but now, to some extent, I am a man with a relatively successful career.
However, I also carried more on my back.
However, Xueqi has always been the closest person to me in the circle of life.
I think that if I draw a circle in my life, the person standing in the middle must be me, and then, the closest to me should be Xueqi, of course, now I have a confinement. However, emotionally speaking, Xueqi and I have a stronger relationship. This kind of relationship is not a lover relationship, it is more like a family relationship where blood is thicker than water, and it is a bit like a brother and sister relationship...... It's really indescribably complicated.
Then, there are my uncles, aunts, cousins and sisters-in-law who are closer to me, but my cousins and sisters-in-law are now far away in Beijing, and my uncle doesn't communicate much with me because of work. As for Tang Mengyan...... She and I are already passers-by, and we have long been in different worlds, and we have never crossed paths.
There are also colleagues in my company, some friends who deal with me, but I can't always be honest with them.
If my life is compared to a bamboo shoot, then the first to be stripped off must be my colleagues, followed by my friends, and then Ma Yike and Yuhui...... In the end, the remaining bamboo shoot cores must be me, Xueqi, and Yuezi.
Without them, my life would be completely incomplete.
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for me to give up Xueqi and Yuezi.
"Of course I won't sacrifice Xueqi. I replied confinement. "Even if I am killed by the people of the agency, I will let Xue Qi and you live well. β
"I want her to live in peace and quiet, and not have anything to do with the agency. β
Listening to my words, Yuezi's expression seemed to be a little relieved, and the gaze in her eyes became firm.
I've known Yuezi for a while, and seeing her expression become firm, I know she must have something on her mind.
"After listening to your words, I feel much more relieved, brother. Yuezi hesitated for a long time, and finally, she still spoke to me, "Listen to my method, maybe...... There is still a way out. Although, it is a very dangerous approach. β
I looked at Yuezi strangely, but her expression told her that she was not joking, and then Yuezi groaned and told me her plan in front of me.
At first, listening to the confinement plan, I thought she was crazy, but later, ...... I was still persuaded by her.
Also accepted.
Because, I don't have a choice.
This is my last way out.
Other than that, there is no way out.
In the end, when I nodded my head heavily at the confinement, I knew that the final battle between me and Brother K was about to begin.
