The next morning, Wang Ren still got up at 7 o'clock, and the seniors in the same dormitory got up as early as yesterday, and he woke up after hearing Wang Ren's movements.

Wang Ren read the book last night and saw two points, and learned a lot of examples of vaccine development, but he still didn't see the situation like yesterday.

Wang Ren arrived at the real yàn room at 7:40, Teacher Zhang had not yet come, the management staff saw that the students were coming and began to open the door, and after the door was opened, the lights were not turned on, and they heard the exclamations from next door one after another, Wang Ren turned on the lights, so he saw that the white rats that had been vaccinated yesterday were all dead.

And the coat color has changed.

Wang Ren took a closer look and confirmed that the white rats had no vital features, and then began to observe, the color of their coats had changed to red or darker, and their bodies were broken, and it was obvious that the early stage of death was very painful, and the utensils were coated with blood, which was very scary to look at!

He took out a notebook to record the details of the dead rats.

At 8 o'clock, Mr. Zhang arrived at the real yàn room on time, he looked at the dead white mouse, his expression was as usual, and only ordered Wang Ren to dispose of the white mouse corpse, recorded the state of the dead white mouse, and began to be real again.

Wang Ren took out the white rats one by one with special gloves and put them in the designated box, he carefully looked at the real yàn room in his hand, almost every white mouse, whether the coat color changed to dark or red, the skin and flesh turned black, but the blood was still red.

What kind of virus is this? A vaccine that has been inactivated and diluted so many times is still so lethal? After carefully disposing of the corpse of the rat, he cleaned the utensils, and after a while, someone came to receive them, and soon after that, a new room was delivered. Looking at the situation, it is probably used to such things happening?

Wang Ren found that today's teacher Zhang is developing a genetic recombinant vaccine, which actually takes a very long time, Wang Ren just happened to see the development of a genetic engineering vaccine last night, and the gene fragment encoded by the antigen of the pathogen is □□ into the expression vector, or the virulence gene of the pathogen can be deleted to get the vaccine.

Maybe Wang Ren did a good job yesterday, Teacher Zhang sometimes asked Wang Ren to participate in the real yàn, Wang Ren observed the number while paying attention to his hands, and he found that this virus is contagious, and it is very contagious! At least classify it as Type A! Such a contagious virus? There is no major outbreak of influenza in country Z, how was this virus discovered in the first place?

With so many people coming to study it, why didn't the institute come to study this vaccine? Wang Ren doesn't know what the level of the research institute is, but at least this teacher Zhang's level should be very high, the technique is very skilled, he can see that he is experienced, his mentality is stable, and if he fails, he will immediately adjust to the best state to prepare for the next time!

Seeing that Mr. Zhang failed to obtain the antigen code again, Wang Ren was even more puzzled, and asked with curiosity on his face: "Mr. Zhang, what kind of virus is this?" So virulent and so contagious? ”

Teacher Zhang glanced at Wang Ren, there was no joy or anger on his face, but his mouth was tightened: "You have also signed a confidentiality agreement, and we are the same, but even if you have signed a confidentiality agreement, all the experts present do not know what this virus is, they don't know how it came about, I have also carefully studied its characteristics, I have never seen a virus with this characteristic after living for so many years." ”

Saying that, I continued to invest in the real yàn, but there was no result this day, the antigen code failed to obtain, and the deletion of the toxic gene was not the original characteristic of the DNA, because the toxic gene fragments were too many.

In the next few days, there was no result, either the toxicity could not be eliminated, or the vaccine could not produce antibodies, many experts had to give up, but Mr. Zhang still persevered until the last day, he conscientiously repeated the development every day, adjusted every detail, recorded the number of failures, Wang Ren was also waiting on the side, he did learn a lot.

Although Mr. Zhang did not speak, his assistant occasionally pointed out, and Mr. Zhang's steps to do the real yàn were very organized, of course, this is also thanks to Wang Ren's daily knowledge in the past few days, more or less able to keep up, the last day, there is still no expert to develop a successful vaccine, and Mr. Zhang finally stopped working after the last practical failure.

The employment time has ended, this is not their job, this time the development of the vaccine is only a private short-term hiring, the employer said at the beginning, please do your best, and did not ask for results.

Almost all of the researchers who were hired were well-known researchers, but none of them got results, and although the employers had no right to blame, they felt uncomfortable, and of course they had experienced a lot of such uncomfortable times.

Wang Ren looked at Mr. Zhang's reluctance to let go, the virus could not be brought out without permission, the first article of the contract was written, he frowned, and finally let go.

Then he suddenly spoke to Wang Ren, his expression was still stern, and his face was the same as when he was doing it, and asked, "Which school are you a student in?" ”

This is the first time that Mr. Zhang has taken the initiative to tell Wang Ren anything other than the truth.

Wang Ren replied: "A big, come and learn from you, thanks to you for this time." ”

Teacher Zhang bowed his head and asked, "How do you want to develop after graduation?" ”

Wang Ren thought for a moment and replied, "I probably want to go to graduate school, and after that... I'd love to go to graduate school. ”

Teacher Zhang suddenly smiled slightly, looked at Wang Ren and said, "Not bad?" How old are you? ”

Wang Ren: "Freshman." ”

Teacher Zhang was a little surprised, but his expression did not change much, and he said with some regret: "It's a pity, I thought that you want to enter the graduate school in the future, and I want you to be my assistant first, I thought you were just young, a junior or senior student, not many classes, even if you are a freshman, there are quite a lot of classes." ”

Wang Ren felt that the surprise came too suddenly! His heart jumped, but his face was very calm, and he asked, "Teacher Zhang is a researcher at the research institute?" ”

Teacher Zhang nodded.

Wang Ren doesn't care about any classes, this is an opportunity, since the other party has moved his mind, it means that there is still a play! He looked at Teacher Zhang sincerely and said, "Teacher, it is a blessing for me to be your assistant, I am really interested in this aspect, you can consider me, I can arrange my time!" ”

Teacher Zhang glanced at Wang Ren, his eyes were calm, he couldn't see what it meant, he always felt as if he was not as satisfied as he was just now, and said lightly: "Since you really want to come here, I will accept you, but I don't let you come for an internship now, the institute will be able to accept you in the future, you have to think about it carefully." ”

Wang Ren nodded.

The teacher looked at him for a while, sighed and said: "The university is really important, you don't have a foundation, you have the ability to dig the bottom all of a sudden, and you are floating when you start doing things, you come for two months first, and then you will continue to keep it if you feel that it can become, you are very smart, I don't want to miss you, the graduate school only has one day off a week, you come one day on Saturday, pick another day by yourself, and come two days a week." He paused and continued: "If you regret that you have studied less in college in the future, don't blame me, I will remind you now." ”

Wang Ren was stunned, and then he figured out that what Teacher Zhang was worried about was this, Wang Ren actually had a plan in his heart, the major must not be mistaken, the book must not be read less, the time is squeezed out, Wednesday class is the least, but there are professional classes can not be warped, as long as there are no professional classes on Friday. However, Wang Ren is also very grateful to Mr. Zhang, although he is not many people and cold, but he considers his position, he is even more sincere in his heart, looking at Mr. Zhang and saying: "Thank you, Mr. for thinking about me, I have a plan in my heart, you see me go on Friday and Saturday, okay?" ”

Teacher Zhang nodded, and said again, "When you come, let the security guard call me to confirm" and then didn't speak.

Wang Ren went to the cafeteria to eat, and felt that the students' feelings were a little low, and they were still in the ivory tower and were taught a profound lesson: the road to scientific research was not as easy as imagined, and even very difficult.

People always have to have some experiences, for example, a frustrated college entrance examination, a job search that hits a wall, or a difficult beginning. Some people will go further because of such setbacks, and some people will never get up again. Before becoming strong, any difficulties encountered are to make people strong.

When Wang Ren was about to go back to the dormitory, there were already few people in the cafeteria, and as soon as he went out of the door, he saw Zou Yun.

It seems that he came to wait for him, but if Zou Yun doesn't look for him, he will also find a chance to meet him alone.

Zou Yun smiled, looked at Wang Ren and said, "You are quite calm, you don't come to ask me these days, you don't have any questions in your heart?" ”

Zou Yun stood casually, the white coat was still wearing, the whole person looked very transparent, the nails were neatly cut as always, the fingers were slender and beautiful, his temperament was very special, the whole person exuded coldness, but his face was gentle and elegant, which made people comfortable.

But Wang Ren didn't have the heart to appreciate it, no matter how he looked at this Zou Yun, he felt weird, what was so special about him? Is it worth his attention?

He froze down, looked at Zou Yun and asked directly, "Do you know the virus that developed the vaccine this time?" ”

Zou Yun nodded and said, "Of course I know, this virus is what I provided." ”

Wang Ren frowned and asked, "What does this mean?" You provided, where did the virus come from? ”

"It's literal." As he spoke, he opened his fingers and placed them in front of Wang Ren and continued: "I never keep my nails, do you know why? ”

Wang Ren shook his head.

His eyes narrowed slightly for a moment, and his ice-gray pupils carried a strange light, and he said: "Because I'm afraid, accidentally, some creature will be infected with the virus - it is the virus that developed the vaccine this time." ”

Wang Ren instantly had goosebumps, and his heart was shocked beyond measure! Looking at Zou Yun again, it's like the whole body is cold! In front of me, I shook the tragic situation of the death of the real yàn rat, and a little farther away, I remembered the previous life - the flu that broke out in City A, and the lost and failed real yàn monster that was developed.
