Not long after Yun Shu's front foot left, Yuan Yuan appeared in the research room, and saw Ji Rong packing up the materials, Yuan Yuan knocked on the door, and when Ji Rong turned around, she smiled: "Is Professor Ji ready to get off work?" ”

Ji Rong snorted and asked her, "Is there anything wrong with Assistant Teacher Yuan looking for me?" ”

"It's a matter of work, I want to ask you, since you're ready to get off work, I'll come back tomorrow." As he spoke, he turned to leave.

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry to get off work at this time, I'll take a look at any problems."

Yuan Yuan entered the door at this time: "Then I'm sorry for you." "Hand the information in his hand to Ji Rong," It is a new project set up by the dean, although the original vision is good, but it is really difficult to study, I don't know what Professor Ji has to offer? ”

Ji Rong quickly scanned the information and looked at Yuan Yuan: "I heard that this Jian Yì was proposed by Assistant Teacher Yuan." Yes, if the R&D is successful, it will also be a great contribution to society. ”

Hearing Ji Rong's rare compliment, Yuan Yuan was overjoyed in her heart, her face was slightly red, and she heard Ji Rong say: "I can't say anything about good Jianyi, I will tell me my thoughts, I hope it will help you." Among the existing drugs, there are many drugs that already have neuro-enhancing functions, such as Ritalin, ********, donepezil and so on. When determining drug targets, you can take a look at these drugs. However, the regulation of the physiological activity of the target should avoid side effects. Like Ritalin, although it can improve concentration, it can affect the creation of zào force. Your original intention should be to develop a specific functional enhancer that can be used by the general public, so there can be no side effects, otherwise the gains outweigh the losses, and in the end it will not be accepted by the market. ”

Yuan Yuan listened carefully, silently remembered it in her heart, and looked at Ji Rong gratefully: "Thank you Professor Ji for your suggestions, this is a great inspiration for our research." ”

Ji Rong waved his hand: "It's easy to say, the specific research work depends on you to do it in a down-to-earth manner." He paused and looked at Yuan Yuan, "Biomedical science is the science that tests patience and perseverance the most. ”

"I understand, I'll try." Facing Ji Rong's encouragement, Yuan Yuan felt for the first time that work could also bring such a great sense of achievement, she smiled at Ji Rong, "I delayed your rest time today, I have to go back to write a report, see you tomorrow." ”

Ji Rong nodded, waited for her to leave, and continued to pack her things.

When Yun Shu returned, the lights in the living room and basement were on, and she went down the stairs, but there was no one in the room. When she turned around, she realized that the door to the chamber was ajar. From her position, it was clear that the professor was standing in front of the freezer with his back to the door, motionless. The back looked so desolate.

Yun Shu stood quietly for a while before entering the secret room and whispered, "Professor." ”

Ji Rong came back to his senses and looked at her: "Are you back?" Did Mr. Mo go back? ”

Yun Shu nodded, looked at the pale and blurred face under the freezer, and asked Ji Rong in a low voice, "Do you miss her?" ”

Ji Rong showed a weak smile: "After so many years, many memories have been blurred. If she weren't still lying here, even her appearance would be a little illusory in my memory. I just want to save her, but it is getting stronger and stronger day by day, and over the years, it has become my survival criterion, engraved into my blood and bones. He paused, looked away from the freezer, and looked at Yun Shu, "I've thought about it, I'll do my best to arrange for her surgery." Because of my timidity, I always want to wait for the technology to be perfect and then wake her up, but the technology will never be perfect, and no matter how long you wait, there will be risks. I wish she would wake up sooner and see me. ”

Yun Shu was silent for a moment: "Then let's arrange the operation as much as possible." Optimistically, in fact, there is still a chance of her resurrection, and the freezing safety issues we were worried about before may not happen. The original effect of freezing the human body is likely to be elastic, and the body's functions can return to their pre-freezing state on their own. ”

Ji Rong took a deep look at the woman under the freezer, then turned around and walked out of the secret room, took a pen in front of the case, and said while writing: "In the process of heating up, the most important thing is to control the speed and temperature, which will affect the damage to the body's functions." If we can wake up, the memory loss that we are worried about is no longer a problem. ”

He looked at the mouse in the cage of the real platform, Yun Shu didn't remember that there was such a real mouse, and was puzzled, listening to Ji Rong say: "This is a mouse that was frozen by me six years ago, I thawed it, and the EEG shown in the brain is almost exactly the same as before freezing." ”

Yun Shu showed a hint of joy: "In other words, our previous assumption is correct, long-term memories, thoughts and consciousness will not be lost due to long-term freezing." ”

Ji Rong nodded: "Unless it is an instantaneous memory, or a short-term memory, it may be lost because it has not been written into the synaptic structure of brain cells." ”

"But it doesn't affect a person much." Yun Shu said.

Ji Rong bowed his head, his eyes sank, and he spoke with difficulty: "If you can't wake up, you have to seize the first few hours and reverse the death process." He paused, and a deep feeling slowly filled his eyes, "If you fail, you have to freeze it again in the shortest possible time, and maybe one day, you can find a way to preserve your memories." ”

"For living beings, there are many ways to preserve memory, but if Sister Yunqing can't wake up, it can almost be concluded that the proteins, neurotransmitters, and DNA in her brain have been severely damaged, and it is probably impossible to extract memory information from here."

Ji Rong's face became even more sad: "I don't know that such an idea has violated the biological theory I currently have, but I still have a fluke, who knows what biotechnology will develop in a few decades." ”

Yun Shu didn't speak, there was silence in the air, and Ji Rong sighed deeply: "If the physical body dies, even if she can preserve her memory, it may not be what she wants, right?" Sometimes, I'm not sure if it's for her or the obsession in my heart to keep her in this world. ”

The surgery was scheduled a month later.

This month, Ji Rong and Yun Shu rarely went to the hospital, and were busy preparing various equipment and materials. There are not many things that really bother Ji Rong in the hospital, which can basically be solved on the phone, and Zhang Yue will often go to Ji Rong's residence to transmit information.

However, Dean Wen was a little worried about Ji Rong, and personally visited Ji Rong twice, and saw that Ji Rong was fine, so he was also relieved. As for whether Ji Rong came to the hospital or not, and what research he was busy with, Dean Wen didn't ask much. Dean Wen is a smart person, he only knows that no matter what achievements Ji Rong makes, according to Professor Ji's indifferent personality of fame and fortune, he will benefit the most, and this alone is enough for him to put Professor Ji at the tip of his heart.
