Chapter 993: Two Thousand and One Sisters (Part II)
Imagine if you met someone who looked exactly like you on the street one day, your first reaction would definitely not be to walk up and shake his hand...... Of course, it is impossible to encounter such a hellish thing in reality, after all, the law restricts the development of cloning technology, and it is impossible for modern society to allow such anti-human experiments. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
When Jiang Chen took Lin Yi back to the fish bone base by helicopter, it was already night. At this time, it was very inconvenient to arrange accommodation for Lin Yi outside, and Jiang Chen was not worried that she would stay outside alone, so he took her home.
And this also brings a problem, Lin Ling is afraid that she will meet this unmasked sister tonight.
"Who is she!"
Standing in the living room of the villa, when she saw Lin Yi for the first time, Lin Ling's two pairs of wicker-like eyebrows rose up, and she glared at her vigilantly and said.
As if frightened by Lin Ling's movements, Lin Yi shrunk his neck and hid behind Jiang Chen in fear.
Lin Ling would have such a reaction, which was also expected by Jiang Chen. Sighing, he stretched out his big hand and rubbed Lin Yi's head, patted her back gently, and gently sent her to Lin Ling.
"Your ...... Sister?"
Somatic cell cloning, it should be a sister, right?
Jiang Chen couldn't figure out exactly how to define the ethical relationship between the mother and the clone, and even gave this declarative sentence a questioning tone. This is not to blame him, after all, there are no cases at hand that can be referred to, and I am afraid that another person will also have to make it difficult for this problem.
"I don't remember that I had a younger sister!" Lin Ling looked at Jiang Chen with a serious face, and put on a very serious appearance, and said word by word, "Tell me, this woman, where did you pick it up!"
This sentence came out of Lin Ling's mouth, how Jiang Chen heard it and felt that it was wrong, but for a while, he couldn't say where the taste was wrong.
Perhaps hearing the movement downstairs, Sun Jiao and Xiaorou also went downstairs to the living room curiously.
When she saw the little girl standing behind Jiang Chen, Sun Jiao was obviously stunned, and then looked at Lin Ling with a strange expression.
"Your long-lost sister?"
Different from her sister's reaction, Xiao Rou looked at this side with interest, a pair of beautiful eyes fell on Lin Ling for a while, and then fell on the little girl who was hiding behind Jiang Chen like a little squirrel, covering her mouth and chuckling a little darkly, "Ah...... Looks like we need to add a pair of chopsticks to our house?"
Hearing this, Lin Ling shouted as if she had exploded.
"No way! How could I...... How could I live with someone who looked exactly like me! It's so weird, there's definitely something weird in it...... Wait! Without an electronic eye, it shouldn't be a cyborg...... Woo woo, damn it!"
Lin Ling jumped to Lin Yi's side, ignoring the frightened fawn-like eyes, stretched out a pair of claws, and pinched left and right at this "fake". As a result, she fell into frustration and entanglement because of inexplicable jealousy and other complex emotions.
A pair of chopsticks?
Jiang Chen's expression was a little embarrassed.
He hadn't told Lin Ling that at the bottom of Poyang Lake, there were still 1999 clones modeled after her lying in the dormant chamber......
……
In the living room of the villa, regarding Lin Yi's question, Jiang Chen, as the head of the family, held a "family meeting" after a long absence. Even Yao Yao wore a loose nightdress, stepped on bunny slippers, and went downstairs into the living room in a daze.
He doesn't remember the last time the family sat together like this to discuss issues, and he doesn't remember it very clearly.
Facing the eyes of the women who were curious, inquiring, puffing up, or not waking up, Jiang Chen cleared his throat, sorted out his thoughts in his mind, and said everything. From his conversation with the director of Vault 118 in the sixth block to the "treasure" he opened at the bottom of Poyang Lake.
“…… That's the basic picture. ”
After spending half an hour explaining the ins and outs of the matter, Jiang Chen glanced around at the women helplessly, "About this little girl...... I'd like to hear from you. ”
Speaking of this, Jiang Chen paused and looked at Lin Ling, the old Gao who was sitting next to Lin Yi and pouting.
Of course, the most important thing is Lin Ling's opinion. ”
Unexpectedly, Jiang Chen would suddenly point the topic at herself, Lin Ling's face turned red, but she was a little embarrassed, "I, me?"
"After all, it's your clone, and there are still 1999 cloned from your body cells sleeping at the bottom of Poyang Lake," Jiang Chen looked at Lin Yi, who was sitting in the corner of the living room not far away, and said with a somewhat complicated expression, "You have the right to decide whether to accept her, and them." ”
Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Lin Ling was slightly stunned, and then lowered her head with some distress.
What to do? She wasn't sure what to do.
Although Lin Ling is usually more vicious, her nature is not bad, and she can even be said to be a kind girl.
Although she can't accept these "fakes" cloned from her own DNA, either physically or psychologically, she also can't draw cruel conclusions about their fate.
After some ideological struggle, Lin Ling gritted her teeth and finally made up her mind.
"Accept them...... It's not impossible. ”
Hearing Lin Ling's words, Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief, looked at her gratefully and smiled, "Thank you." ”
Lin Ling blushed, looked to the side with her little head, and muttered in a low voice.
"Again...... It's not for you, don't be sentimental. ”
Two thousand scientists are indeed important to Jiang Chen, but he can't completely ignore the feelings of the people around him. Lin Ling is naturally best if she can accept it, if she can't, he won't force her, and place these clones at the bottom of Poyang Lake or in Camp 27 to isolate them from others, and still give full play to their scientific research value.
It's just that the efficiency may be a little lower, and it is always a pimple in Lin Ling's heart.
Since Lin Ling expressed her willingness to accept the two thousand clone sisters, Sun Jiao, Xiaorou, and Yao Yao naturally would not have any opinions.
It's just that after solving the big problem of "going to stay", there is still a big problem in front of everyone.
"The key question is where to live?" Sun Xiaorou put her index finger lightly on her lower lip and said thoughtfully, "It doesn't matter if it's just one or two pairs of chopsticks, but more than two thousand pairs of chopsticks ......"
Speaking of this, Sun Xiaorou looked at Jiang Chen with some embarrassment, and asked a very realistic question, "Even if our family is twice as big, I'm afraid it won't fit so many people." ”
Where to stay? That's a real question.
It is definitely impossible to put 2,000 "Lin Ling" into the house, but if you put them outside, it is difficult to reassure. After all, their minds are almost no different from those of two or three-year-old children, and it is clearly not suitable for contact with survivors now.
But at this moment, Sun Jiao made a good suggestion.
"Why don't we build a research institute next to each other in the back of the villa......? Aren't clones all scientists in various fields? It's safer to let them live in the institute than to run around outside. Sun Jiao proposed. (To be continued.) )
