"Ahββ! Lina! Why don't you just fly the big-eyed dragonfly (TPC's cadre transport plane), and if it doesn't work, we can't just take the Shinkansen? I've looked up on the Internet that it should only take 100 minutes to get from Tokyo to Izu, and it will take at most 20 minutes to get there. That's just two hours. β
"What are you talking about? It's coming soon! It's not likable for a man to be too wordy! Lina sat in the back seat of the SUV, chatting happily with Mayumi, the beautiful sister of Xincheng, and was interrupted by Tianyun, so naturally she didn't have a good face to show Tianyun.
"That's it! It is! Sky Cloud! Lina is right! You've complained several times along the way! Isn't it good to enjoy the view of the seaside road along the way? The view of the seaside in late autumn is quite special! Mayumi echoed Rina in the back.
"Ahββ! Let me die! Can I keep my head peeled to enjoy the scenery around me while driving? And it's been nearly five hours since you told me two hours ago that you're almost there! Tianyun continued to wail.
"That's where we lied to you! Are you stupid? I don't know the distance to Izu, but I don't even know how to look at the highway navigation system? Lina peeled off a large orange and handed it to Mayumi beside her.
"Isn't that cooperating with you? Give me a bit! I'm dying of thirst! And starving! If the Marine Research Center can't determine what kind of marine creature it is, where else can we go to consult? Could it be that this creature will become a new species discovered on Earth? β
"It's not something you need to worry about! Here! Mouth! Lina shoved half an orange into Tianyun's mouth in one go.
"Ahββ! Ahemββ, are you trying to choke me? β
"As members of the headquarters, we all know your combat effectiveness as a foodie, and you will definitely not be sacrificed because of this half of an orange. You say yes, Mayumi? β
Mayumi nodded seriously, "yes! Our colleagues in the medical class are betting that if Tianyun goes to participate in some food god competition, let alone win the first place, it is possible for one person to eat all the food prepared by others! β
"Who said that?"
"Wellββ, it seems that Professor Chen said that your physical fitness is really a bit exaggerated, and he estimates that as long as the food reaches your stomach and turns three times, it will be about the same as someone else's digestion in a few hours, so our colleagues in the medical class will make this kind of bet."
"Sure enough, it was Devil Chen who said it, this guy is definitely the same as Carrot and the others, except that one of them deliberately corrected me, and the other three corrected me unintentionally." Tianyun gritted his teeth and stared at the road in front of him, as if he wanted to eat people.
"Turn right at the intersection in front of you and you're in the parking lot!"
"Thank goodness! It's finally here! β
Carrying a special bio-storage box, Tenyun followed behind Rina and Mayumi. "Well, the working environment of the Marine Research Center is good!" From a boardwalk near the sea through a dense forest, the scenery in front of you is suddenly brightened up when you pick up the tough branches that have not been on the road for a long time. In front of you are a few small white buildings, and the few near the sea are all low cylindrical shapes. On the left-hand side is an endless sea of light blue, with several speedboats parked at the dock near the shore. Several paths built into the sea connect several huts deep into the sea, and you can see mobile cages floating in the sea with the waves near the huts. Two dark gray artificial breakwaters block the research center's research and breeding area outside the beach. Looking further out, there are only a few buoy-like pontoons floating on the surface of the sea that I don't know what they do. Taking a few deep breaths of the air near the sea with a hint of the unique smell of the ocean, Tianyun and the three of them walked into the Marine Research Center.
Due to the reasons that had been contacted before, as soon as the three of Tianyun stepped into the door of the laboratory, a staff member greeted them. After the necessary greetings, the black-rimmed uncle-level figure led Tianyun and them into a laboratory equipped with various experimental and analytical instruments. At the beckoning of this uncle, soon a researcher took over the biological storage box in Tianyun's hand, and then conducted a variety of experiments and analyses on the strange fish in this storage box, such as knife slashing, fire, special liquid immersion, and various ray irradiation.
[Huh? Why does it feel so familiar? Cha! Isn't this a copy of the simulation training scene that the obscene old bean gave me? Well, poor strange fish, you and I are in the same sickness! Whining! Pray for you and me devoutly! γ
"Tianyun, what kind of expression do you have?" Lina asked strangely as she looked at the rapidly changing expression of Tianyun beside her.
"Tianyun, are you grieving for this strange fish? You are so compassionate! When Mayumi heard Lina's inquiry, she also looked back at Tianyun's expression, and then said an extremely unreliable guess.
"Sorrow for the fish? He must be a pity that he can't taste this strange fish! Lina gave a conjecture that was closer to the nature of a foodie.
"Hehe, I'm lamenting my own miserable life that I can't escape from in the future!"
"Shhhh What an answer that doesn't make sense at all! Yes? Director, are you back? β
"Well, the results of the analysis of the DNA composition are out. It contains recombinant DNA factors caused by radioactive energy. Based on the analysis of other experimental data, we judged that this strange fish must be a creature that originally existed on the earth, and it is very likely to be a deep-sea fish similar to the deep-sea giant silver axefish, of course, this needs to be further studied to accurately judge. But in terms of size, it's much larger than the known giant silver axefish, you see! The director pointed to a computer screen beside him, "We have restored the original size of this strange fish through technical means, it is 34 centimeters long, while the giant silver axe fish is usually only about 11 centimeters long. β
"Could it be a variant caused by a mutation caused by the radiation energy shown in the analysis?" Tianyun listened to the director's conclusion, and guessed the possibility of creating an enlarged version of the giant silver axefish.
"Well, quite possibly! After all, we humans have conducted many large-scale nuclear explosion tests underground and in the sea, and there is no doubt that large amounts of radioactive materials remain in the sea through underground rivers and other means. The director nodded in agreement with Tianyun's conjecture, "And it takes a long time for radioactive materials to decay." For example, cesium takes 33 years, plutonium takes 24,000 years, oh, and uranium, it takes hundreds of millions or even billions of years! β
"Huhββ? Doesn't that mean that even if humanity may perish, the effects of nuclear explosion tests on the planet will persist! Mayumi opened her mouth wide and came to a startling conclusion.
"That's right! However, the problem of mutation of marine fish due to radioactive materials is also one of the research topics of our Marine Research Center. β
"Director, your research here is great!" Tianyun praised very insincerely.
And our uncle didn't care, "Haha! Thanks for the compliment! Walk! Since you're here, let's take a look at our research center. The uncle led the three of them through a corridor into a room larger than the previous laboratory.
"Director, is this the command center of your research center?" It's no wonder that Yumi asked, as there were six huge monitors mounted on the walls around this room, various data graphs calculated by various advanced instruments flashing on the screen, and two rows of computer seats with controls and adjustments installed in front of it. At first glance, it really looks like a scaled-down version of the staff command center in the ABP.
"It's pretty much the same! However, the functions of these instruments and machines are naturally different from those big guys in your ABP. This hall is a data center that aggregates the monitoring data detected by the instruments placed in various parts of the sea in our research center and allows for real-time observation. The director turned back to Mayumi and explained.
"There aren't many staff here." Tianyun looked at the few staff members in the hall who seemed to be very busy, and muttered quietly.
"That's right! First, because of the advanced science and technology, we don't need to arrange more personnel to be on duty here, and second, today is a weekend, so naturally most of our colleagues enjoy the holiday. "The director's hearing is very good, and he even heard Tianyun's little muttering." This is the new equipment we have recently developed and installed, the full name is 'Ultrasonic Fish Induced Signaling System'. Uncle Director walked to a console and pointed to the console, "Simply put, it is to use ultrasonic waves to gather fish to come, and then use programs such as the switch of multiple transmitters to control the swimming path of various fish to a certain extent." β
"So this system can also help marine life get out of dangerous waters?" Lina asked thoughtfully.
"That's right! In recent days, many submarine earthquakes have occurred in many parts of the Pacific Ocean, which have led to the eruption of many submarine volcanoes, and we can use this system to effectively help fish avoid these dangerous seas and help them reproduce more and better their offspring! You see, this is a buoy with a transmitter on it! "We have set these buoys on the sea surface around the world, not only can we bring a lot of effective data to our marine science through these instruments and equipment, but also effectively improve the fishing efficiency of fishermen." β
"Great! This means that I will be able to eat more delicious seafood sashimi in the future! Uncle Director, your research is really far-reaching! This time, Tianyun's praise was much more sincere.
"Haha!" The director laughed when he heard Tianyun's praise, "Yes, I just caught fresh sea fish and fresh sashimi today!" Let's eat and go! β
"Huhββ! Long live Uncle Director! Tianyun shouted excitedly when he heard this.
"Uhββ, well! And Tianyun, can you not highlight your already famous foodie name so much? Lina agreed to the invitation of the director on behalf of everyone, and then did not forget to kick Tianyun hard.
"As long as there is food, it is nothing to be kicked by you!"
"Hahaha!" The surrounding staff were amused by Tianyun's words.
