Chapter 34: Dr. Xing (22)

"Xiaoxiao, it's useless. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 info It's escaped, it's already out there, there's no way we can stop it in the lab anymore. Bai Yuelu let out a long sigh, folded his arms and was silent for a while, then raised his head: "Just report it to the department." ”

"Nothing good." Cen Xiao shook his head. "When we report it, they have to review it again and have a meeting. College efficiency, you know. They would ask us to hand in a lot of reports and lab materials, and we didn't have that much time to spend with them. ”

"But it's beyond the reach of the two of us." Bai Yuelu tried to persuade her, "If those professors, or even academicians, can take a look, they may solve the problem faster than us." ”

"Nope." Cen Xiao immediately objected: "This project is too big, if they know it, it will take a long time to grab the project first." Don't you remember what happened to us before? I don't want to risk being reported by a bunch of old men as important thesis material at this juncture. ”

"But we've done everything we can." Bai Yuelu looked at her, but the posture of her body entered a state of preparing to attack. "Besides, we can't guarantee that charging that thing will actually increase its mobility. We can't afford to take that risk anymore. ”

"We have to take the risk of trying whatever might work, it's the only way to solve something we haven't seen before." Cen Xiao said: "I will start with a small dose of battery, connect it to the lead box, and then measure the surrounding energy value. ”

"We don't have that much time!" Bai Yuelu raised his voice a little, making it a little easier for me, the eavesdropper. I continued to listen to the young woman say with a little panic, "The villagers don't have that much time. The death of the chicken shows that the thing is completely lethal, just because the chicken is relatively small, but it will always spread to humans. As she spoke, there was more fear in her voice: "Oh my God, think about how many villagers have already developed symptoms..."

Cen Xiao let out a "hum" sound from his nose, which made me very incomprehensible.

I know it wasn't unintentional. But I can't understand why she would make a sneer that borders on disdain at such a critical juncture, on such an issue of human life. I can understand her dislike for some of the villagers. But as far as I know, there is Bai Endeavor in the list of diseases, there is no need for her to be so disdainful.

This made me have some different thoughts about Cen Xiao. I watched her stand up straight, and I could even feel the muscles in her tense back. After a while, she said in a very calm, almost unforgiving voice:

"We can't control anyone else now. We need to concentrate on deciphering the laws of communication with that cosmic wave, and maybe we can establish communication with it. Only then will it be possible to really solve the problem, otherwise it is only a matter of time. ”

"Then you're going to leave my family and my folks alone?" Obviously, the first words of the other party's mouth completely annoyed the young woman who was already in a state of anxiety, and she immediately choked back: "You plan to go back like this, continue to hide in the laboratory and do research, and then no matter how many people die outside, right?" ”

"The more we study this kind of thing, the more we can save the villagers." Cen Xiao was also a little anxious, "Yes, I think it's better to stay in the laboratory and work hard." Because we're astrophysicists, that's where we can have the most effect. ”

"You just want to find a safe place to hide, you don't want to come into contact with more patients in the village." Bai Yuelu said coldly.

I watched as the distance between the two lights gradually widened, retreating from the original intimate distance to personal distance. Both men put their weight on their legs behind them, folded their arms, and took a defensive stance. There was a thick tension throughout the conversation.

Cen Xiao lowered her head and looked at the ground for a while, I guessed she was digesting the emotions that had just surged. In my opinion, Cen Xiao is an overly rational person - almost ruthless, like a robot. She doesn't like to use her emotions, and until now, her tone has been calm.

Although her tense voice could be heard between the lines, as if she was trying to restrain herself.

After a long time, she raised her head and looked at Bai Yuelu levelly: "No, I just hope that you can take on your responsibilities as a scientist." It's your job to study that thing, just like Mr. Sun's job is to prevent the epidemic, and I hope you don't waste time making up for the guilt in your heart. ”

Even I, a bystander, felt a little too unkind when I heard this.

Sure enough, Bai Yuelu immediately retorted: "Those are my family, my acquaintances, people who watched me grow up, and gave me money. ”

"But you can't help them much." Cen Xiao's voice was still calm.

"I can study the treatment for this disease, how it damages human cells. Maybe I can find a way to reverse this process. Xiaolu hurriedly said, but only got a basin of cold water from the other party:

"You're not capable enough, and you don't have enough knowledge of biology." Cen Xiao tried to pull her hand, but was thrown away by the other party.

"Fawn." She sighed, looking tired: "I know you're anxious, but I really need you." You're smart, you're very sensitive to astrophysics, and with you we might be able to analyze the physics of this thing, and then we can come up with solutions. ”

She said, "Come back with me, this is our last hope." If we let this thing spreadβ€”" She didn't say any more, letting the air silence fill in for the gravity of the matter. "It's not just this village that we want to save, it's not just us. We have first-hand data, the most observational experience. We've already had some results, at least we've done some talking, aren't your symptoms gone? We can't stop researching, so that even if we fail, we can still leave valuable material for future researchers and leave a little hope for humanity. ”

The two men stared at each other, and the atmosphere was at a stalemate. After a while, Bai Yuelu retracted his gaze and said in a low voice, "My brother is sick, I want to go back to see him." ”

"Little deer..."Cen Xiao sighed.

"I can take more samples outside, look at them up close, and then analyze the mechanism of infection." She whispered, laughing self-deprecatingly, "It's fine." You're there to confront the source directly, and I'm out there touching patients. I don't know which one is more daring. ”

"Little deer..."Cen Xiao just wanted to step forward to pull her, but was stopped by the other party waving his hand.

"I'm going back to take care of my family and see how the villagers are doing." The young woman said with some weakness: "There is something to contact with the walkie-talkie." ”

Then their light vanished, and I was not given the figure of two people who had once been close to them parting ways.
