Chapter 250: A Thesis

Confined to his home, William Z. Baker was helpless and angry, and all information about "2015 - Rice Pear Bacteria" on his computer, laptop, and mobile phone was completely deleted.

Now he can no longer use his identity to make any statements on the Internet.

Pulling back the curtains, there were two cars parked on the road outside the villa, sent by Ruta Schneider to keep an eye on him. Seven or eight Chinese fastest ^ mobile terminal:://

Closing the curtains, William Z. Baker was in great pain, his conscience was tormented, and he opened his e-mail.

There are a lot of papers sent to him by The Lancet and other medical biology journals to review it, and now he has been "sick leave" by the institute, and the Lancet has just sent him a condolence email.

Suddenly, he noticed something, and quickly opened his laptop and searched for some things in the biomedical field in 2015 and 2016.

…… 2015.07.05, Dr. Nujan, a plant virologist in Tianzhu, died in a car accident at the age of 37......

…… 2015.09.06, Samba virrologist Dr. Juan Mikas, disappeared during an expedition to the Amazon rainforest......

…… 2015.10.17, Dr. Nagaharu Aoyama, a geneticist at Toei, passed away due to a heart attack......

…… On 2016.01.22, Dr. Anthony Frank, a virobacteriologist and an infectious disease scientist, scientific advisor to the Infectious Disease Office of the United States Surveillance Center, committed suicide at home......

Looking at the string of names, before you know it, many well-known biologists or medical scientists around the world have died or disappeared inexplicably.

In comparison, the mortality rate of scientists in the biomedical field in the previous year was 37.9% higher in 2015/2016.

A cool breath suddenly surged into William Z. Baker's heart, which he hadn't noticed before, only now realized that there was an invisible black hand that was clearing out those who knew the truth.

There was no fear in his heart, only endless anger, and many of these dead or missing colleagues were old friends with him, and they were scientists with a sense of justice and conscience.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.

William Z. Baker, who was sitting in his chair, was startled, then calmed down and stared coldly at the door.

With a click, the door slowly unscrewed open, and the hall lights were turned on.

"Oh......" A brown-haired young man was taken aback: "Whew, William, why don't you turn on the lights"

William Z. Baker, who breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at his son with a soothing look before he said calmly: "Sim, why did you come back suddenly?"

Opening the refrigerator and taking out a bottle of milk, Sim Baker replied with the cap of the lemon bottle: "I was invited by the Marcus Lab in the United States, and they plan to hire me to be the leader of a project. ”

William Z. Baker of the Marcus Lab frowned: "At the Marcus Lab in Texas"

Sim Baker, who took a sip of milk, nodded.

"Sim, you should know that the laboratory is a biological laboratory under the United States Army."

Sim Baker nodded again, but then he explained: "It's not that kind of biological weapons project, it's about anti-cancer GMO research, and you know that the success of the Chinese people in this regard makes the Chinese people feel very uncomfortable." ”

William Z. Baker, the anti-cancer genetically modified, still felt something was wrong in his heart, especially after yesterday's incident, he asked tentatively:

"Sim, why did they ask you to be in charge?"

"Dear Mr. William, The Lancet has just published my paper, and you should take a look at it." Sim Baker said with a smile.

The Lancet...... Thesis...... William Z. Baker patted his forehead: "I'm so sorry Sim, I've been a little busy these days. ”

After saying that, he quickly opened his notebook, logged on to the official paper website of the Lancet, and after typing in Sim Baker's name, some papers popped up.

There are three papers related to his son, Sim Baker, and the young scientist who can publish three papers at the Lancet is clearly very extraordinary.

See the latest paper, titled "Feasibility Experiment of Stem Cell DZ Fragments on Transgenic Stability", written by Sim Baker and Eric Fan.

The content of the paper is that the DZ fragment in stem cells can be inserted into the gene that needs to be transgenic through specific recombination, which can improve the stability and success rate of transgenic.

Through 12 groups of comparative experiments, the stability of transgenic cells was increased by 30~40%, which greatly improved the success rate of transgenic gene embedding.

Unexpectedly, his son had unknowingly surpassed himself, and William Z. Baker was very pleased.

"Sim, you're my pride."

Sim Baker said with some embarrassment: "William, after I go to the United States, you should find a girlfriend!" ”

In fact, he has always been sorry for his father, and he gave up too many things in order to take care of himself.

"I'll talk about it when I have a chance." William Z. Baker diverted the conversation and talked to his son about GMO engineering for a while.

Then Sim Baker went to take a shower.

He went to cook, taking potatoes, sausages, onions and some cheese from the fridge to prepare dinner for his son.

William Z. Baker, who was cutting potatoes, suddenly had a pain in his fingers, and his index finger was cut open by a kitchen knife, and blood dripped on the board.

Looking at the blood droplets on the board, he quickly pulled out a piece of kitchen paper and wiped it clean, then went to the utility room to take out the medicine box, treat the wound, and put a band-aid on it.

Back in the kitchen, William Z. Baker hurriedly prepared fried sausages, onions, and mashed potatoes, but a sense of foreboding gradually gripped his heart.

A breeze blew the curtains of the hall, and the two cars that were watching him were still outside on the side of the road.

Rice Plague ...... 2015β€”Oryza oryzae ...... Artificial modification ...... Behind the scenes...... Thesis......

After some brainstorming, William Z. Baker remembered his son's research results, and he immediately reacted to the notorious United States biological laboratory.

There may be a problem with Marcus's lab, if it weren't for the Rice Pear Mushroom matter, maybe he wouldn't have doubted the other party's motives, and now the other party's purpose is very worth pondering.

If Marcus' lab is researching chemical weapons, it is highly likely that his work could be used for research on genetically modified viruses and the like.

No, I'm going to stop this, William Z. Baker won't allow his son's achievements to become a tool for slaughtering humanity.

"What does William think?" asked Sim Baker, who had just finished taking a shower.

"Uh...... Sim: Let's eat first. ”

During the meal, William Z. Baker gave his son a quiet look, then spread the mashed potatoes on the plate and write on them with a knife.

There are bugs in the house, don't speak

Sim Baker's face changed, and he looked at his father calmly as he continued to write and draw on the mashed potatoes.

By the end of the meal, Sim Baker had understood the seriousness of the matter.

After eating, I looked at my father's laptop again, and it showed that the mortality rate of biologists or medical scientists in the world had soared abnormally in the past two years.

Coupled with the fact that his father is now restricted in his personal freedom and surveillance, he feels angry and frightened.

Thinking that his work would become an executioner's blade and be used to slaughter humanity, Sim Baker now preferred not to have researched it himself.
