"I think all mature enough people can understand that there must be something wrong with this world." In the dining room, where the main plate had been removed, dessert was placed in front of them, and the red wine was halfway down, Tom said with a smile, "It can be said that the atomic bomb destroyed all this—after World War II, the rate of human reproduction became faster and faster, but the main regions could not be attrition through war, except for Africa, Europe, Asia, and the Americas...... As the population continues to increase and the ugliness becomes more and more apparent, you will find that there are many people in this world...... They are more like beasts, the instinctive evil and the stupidity that is most intolerable."

He shook his head, his expression becoming serious, "I'm not talking about the poor, you must understand that, Kelly, I'm talking about those who slow down the progress of humanity, those who make poison. The people who sell it, the people who stir up wars to get to the pinnacle of power, they're amazingly stupid, and because of their stupidity, they're taking the world in a bad direction, you know what I mean, these people don't know how to be responsible for the future, at the current rate, oil and coal are only going to last a few hundred years, but Wellington's research into alternative energy sources has been harassed by interest groups -- they're too stupid to see the future, they're only drawn to the sight of three minutes. ”

Although they knew that this was the director giving the villain some charm points, like Kelly, the audience couldn't help but nod their heads: at this time, they would never remember the fact that they live in the country with the highest per capita resource consumption, and the waste of resources has even reached an outrageous level. Instead, they naturally think that they are on the side of justice, judging the stupid and evil humans with Tom - and he is right, the existence of these people is really not helpful to humanity.

"If you look at the 100-year scale, you will find that although humanity has reached unprecedented heights in the past 300 years, and our way of life has changed dramatically, in fact, we are also in great crisis. And science is the way out, and Einstein is the answer to everything—general relativity, time travel, planetary migration-"

With Kelly nodding his head from time to time and showing his approval from the bottom of his heart, Tom's conversation became more and more intense, and he talked about his opinion with some excitement, and his expression could even be said to be a little holy, "And that's why the Wellington Group values the DS gene so much - as one of the largest economic organizations in the world, I think it's the duty of the Wellington Group - to think about the future of the planet, and we can't shirk it-"

Judging from his pious expression, Tom has nothing to do with the villain at all, and his theory can't help but murmur to himself, and his villain identity has been shaken a little. Quint's acting skills are completely exploded in this section, his seemingly innate evil spirit is completely reined in, and his eager, fanatical expression does not feel crazy, but like an enthusiastic believer, giving people the impression of 'although I don't completely agree with you, but you look like you are ...... for everyone's good'.

It seems that under Tom's influence, Kelly's sense of superiority has gradually disappeared, her expression has not changed much, but the change in attitude can be easily seen - her eyes have changed from the usual dazed, looking at you as if looking directly at the world behind you, to concentration and cohesion, and when listening, she will involuntarily nod her head. Was she completely impressed by Tom, or was she acting? Now even the audience is not clear, because Tom's theory is not evil, and it seems normal at the moment.

"Oh, and at that point, I have to apologize to you, Kelly," Tom said suddenly, smiling at Kelly's reaction, and he stopped Kelly's reaction while asking him to come over to settle the bill, "Oh, no, no, no, let me pay for it - this is actually the property of the Wellington consortium, which is my home turf-"

The camera cuts away, and the next second, Tom and Kelly sit in Kelly's car, driving past the signboard on the Wellington campus, and Tom continues, "Speaking of which, I must apologize to you, Kelly - in fact, all your research on the DS gene has been under surveillance, even before you joined, we investigated you-"

He suddenly reveals the hidden information that Kelly is being watched by default, which surprises Kelly and catches the audience off guard - this twist is beyond people's expectations, and it is also a strong stimulus for them.

Kelly turned her head to look at Tom, and the camera once again entered 'Kelly's field of vision', but this time, the camera focused on a few places and found nothing wrong, and finally reported the error blankly, and returned to reality.

“what？” She said, directly slamming on the brakes, her expression was so surprised that people couldn't help but secretly praise Kelly's acting skills - at this time she should be surprised, if she was completely innocent and unaware of the fact that she was being watched. "Being monitored? But it's not like it's supposed to require the employee's consent - and the camera-"

"I know that this violates your rights, but considering the importance of the DS gene, please understand that we really have no choice." Tom, of course, immediately said sorry, motioned for Kelly to continue driving to the lab, and led her to the lab on the second floor. "I know, you tested the performance of rats for a day today......"

He turned on the computer equipment and called out the video of the afternoon's experiments: the rats walked the maze, ran the flywheel, and did all kinds of tests. Tom, on the other hand, took out a rat and stroked it gently—the rat, which had usually struggled very much, was now tame, and even showed a gesture of attachment to Tom's hand.

Kelly's eyes widened in surprise, and Tom laughed in surprise.

"Oh, it's starting to work." "You see, he has understood the disparity between man and his status, and that attachment and obedience can bring food, and maybe even prolonged life—if its intelligence could understand that." ”

As he spoke, he put the rat into the maze. "DS gene, also known as genius gene, Kelly, it is a hidden gene commonly carried by human beings, according to the Wellington Group in the global gene map collection and survey, more than 70% of the population may carry this gene, the difference is only whether the gene is awakened, whether it is expressed...... After the activation of the R287 protein......"

He made a 'look' gesture, "ta-dah, within 48 hours, the subject will undergo noticeable changes, and you will find that the rat's senses are more sensitive—"

This is a maze that can be freely modulated, Tom made it difficult to design, he had to press three of the six different color switches corresponding to the color on the door before the door would open, and the rat observed the door for a while, and directly stepped forward and pushed the switch down with his nose.

"Think faster."

Seeing the rat crack the mechanism at an extraordinary speed, go straight to the center of the maze with a clear goal, and get the food, Kelly couldn't help but take a breath, and for the first time since the beginning of the movie, her expression appeared 'longing' and 'dreamy'.

"Fasating......" she said, quickening her pace to Tom's side, and pressed her hand to the glass in fascination.

"More communicative." Tom said - the rat did not eat the food immediately after getting it, but barked at Tom twice, as if he knew very well that it was the food he had given him. He turned his head and smiled softly at Kelly, "If I had to use that word, it would be more human, don't you think?" ”

"Humanization is a very human word," Kelly said quickly, almost with her face pressed against the glass case, "it's not human, oh my God, it's not genius genes, it's -- it's a genetic ...... that promotes the development and evolution of living organisms."

"Yes." Tom's face flashed with obvious approval, "There are no genes that are superior or inferior, evolution is an accidental phenomenon, and it is extremely long. Natural selection - this gene is valuable precisely because the ability to observe, communicate and think is more suitable for the survival of the population in the current environment of the earth......"

"Whether or not the population carrying this mutated gene can reproduce and dominate the mainstream will determine how ......long the human race will be dominant in the long biological generation," Kelly muttered.

"Yes, yes!" Tom's emotions also stirred, "I knew you could understand!" - Kelly, we're in the process of evolving! It's a game of 10,000 years, and humanity has gone so far at the forefront, we have progressed step by step from a monkey on the African savannah to the present, and every step of evolution - the expansion of the brain, the shortening of the arm - is a crucial step, and every modern man going back a million years will be a genius because- "

"Brain capacity," Kelly said absentmindedly, "a million years ago, ancient humans had only half the brain capacity of modern humans, and they were destined to be more ...... than modern humans Stupid. ”

"Yes, stupid." Tom pointed to the rat and said loudly, "This is how we look at ancient humans, and this is how Einstein looks at ordinary people - and this is how we look at groups whose genes are not activated, Kelly, the next key event in the history of human evolution is close at hand, between hundreds and thousands of years, the DS gene has expanded to 70% of humans, and if there is no intervention, maybe it will dominate in the next round between the hundred and the thousand, and then the generations, There are more and more babies with dominant DS genes, and humans who lack gene expression are naturally eliminated...... In tens of thousands of years, humanity will enter the ...... Enter the next generation, enter the new generation! ”

His fierce voice echoed through the empty lab, and Kelly's dejected, completely shocked expression served as a backdrop to Tom, who raised his hand as if to give a speech, and said feverishly, "But it must fight against the progress of human self-destruction, Kelly, do you understand?" The general public may think that human beings are the protagonists of the universe, and they cannot look at the world from our perspective - standing at the point of time of five billion years, looking down on this young race, in which countless thriving races have disappeared into history without a trace, and human beings are not exempt from death. Nuclear wars, asteroid impacts, Yellowstone volcanoes, earthquakes, ice ages – there are so many accidents that could wipe out the human race in a million years, and who knows if luck is on our side this time? ”

He waved his hand vigorously, "And what we're going to do now is to artificially move this process forward before humanity is destroyed, you know, Kelly?" Before humanity is destroyed by planetary accidents, push them to the next generation - to the new generation! That's what you're doing, and you're going to go down in history in the future – you'll be the key to humanity's evolution! ”

He walked over to Kelly, took her hand, and said softly, "Now, do you blame the Wellington Group for secretly spying on your experiments?" Kelly, now do you get it? -- When it comes to the survival of the race, we really don't have any other choice. ”

There was silence in the theater, and although Tom had been monologue for almost three minutes, no one thought that his performance was too hot, or that the scene was a bit boring - the explanation in simple terms made everyone think that what Tom said was not unreasonable: for people with basic common sense, but no relevant expertise, Tom was not telling lies, these are scientific facts, and this makes the whole 'DS gene' hypothesis more convincing, at least not like ' After being bitten by a spider, you suddenly have superpowers', and you will know very well that it is fake: it is all pseudoscience, but this pseudoscience is to make people believe more and be more intoxicated.

Is it a villain...... Someone else began to suspect that Tom's thoughts were normal, even great, and that he was truly from the point of view of human existence. There are even many female viewers who have already fallen in love with Tom - so handsome, so talented, and so golden, it's hard not to like him.

Mu Ran nodded, agreeing with Tom's words, Kelly shook off his hand and walked to the glass box again.

"That's why you want to mass-produce the R287 protein...... "to move humanity into the next generation...... But...... How does this work? ”

She turned around and looked like she was in research mode, "First of all, of course, genetic testing must be done, at least under the current conditions - it is impossible to distribute compound 876 indiscriminately...... Compound 876 is a deadly poison for people without genes—"

"That's why I want you to continue to improve the compound," Tom said with a smile, "I want you to create an absolutely safe catalyst for the injections to be truly universal and become the next generation of birth vaccines -- for gene carriers, it's a wake-up agent, and for non-carriers, it's safe and harmless."

"I see." Kelly nodded, "This thing...... It really means a lot, and if I can really become the promoter of this cause, I ...... I would feel very honored. ”

She seemed touched, even as religious as Tom - but immediately after, Kelly's vision fell, and this time, Tom's whole person was clearly visible, in focus-

But, in the next second, with a banging sound effect, a big 'liar' suddenly appeared and was slammed into Tom's face......
