259 Life and death
"Chief Yan, do you know the breath of death?" Cao Wenfei leaned forward and stared at Scarlet.
"In order to protect themselves and their race, some animals will secrete poisonous gas at the end of their lives, so that the enemy will die when they smell it, and even if the enemy does not die, this warning will form a strong stimulus, engraved in the enemy's genetic memory, and even passed down from generation to generation, after which the enemy will actively avoid conflict when they encounter the creatures of this group. That's about it. ”
"That's right, our animal experts have also come up with such a conjecture." Cao Wenfei nodded. "I didn't expect that Mr. Yan was also proficient in this knowledge. How much more do you know about the breath of death? ”
"I don't understand. I only read about some of the biodefense properties in general when I was taking a course on robotic animals at graduate school. Animals that secrete the breath of death are theoretically unlikely to observe other species in their habitat. Its secretion capacity should be strongest during the breeding season. Also, there aren't many animals with such extreme defensive properties. Other than that, I know almost nothing. Scarlet's gaze swept over the people in the observation room, "?? Is the danger of insects related to the breath of death? ”
"Not sure enough. After the Ge Guanqing incident, we set up an unmanned observation area in the Rongye Plain to track and study. The habits of insects. We've been working on all possible hypotheticals, but since we haven't had time to deploy a series of experiments yet, Deathgas is still hypothetical at this stage. Chun Yuanzhao shook his head and stared at Scarlet, "Chief Yan, your situation may be able to help us further determine." ”
Scarlet knew what he meant.?? The insects were close enough to her, and if they were sluggish, guided, and not fatal to people when they were alive, then the other way around, it was indeed the greater threat of dead insects.
The premise is that she has to live to prove it.
Things have come to this point, and Cao Wenfei and the others are ready to leave. "Thank you, Mr. Yan. Your brave performance in the face of danger today, as well as your cooperation with our work now, will be written?? Bug Project Report. Thank you again. ”
"In half an hour, you'll move on to the next session." Chun Yuanzhao turned his head and instructed Shang Tan'an, "Deputy Director Shang, try not to talk too much about you, so that President Yan can relax and be happy." ”
"Okay." Shang Tan'an nodded.
"How long do I need to be here?" Scarlet called for spring and distant photos.
The crowd turned to look at her. In the center of the isolation treatment room, there was only her in a hospital gown and the large empty liquid tank behind her.
"At least four days." Chun Yuanzhao said kindly, "Today is a day, and family members can visit during the treatment period." ”
"Thank you." "Thank you." Scarlet and Shang Tan'an said one after another.
Cao Wenfei was the main commander of today's incident, and he said goodbye to the two of them in a friendly manner, and Gu Ge was even more so, Qi Changgong turned his toes slightly, glanced at the two of them, and bowed his head slightly.
Scarlet looked at everyone and the fifteen-year-old Mr. Changgong walking past Shang Tan'an one after another. She leaned against the edge of the liquid tank, and when they walked out, she saw Shang Tan'an step in front of the observation wall, so she also stepped forward and stood on the front wall of the room.
"Scarlet, are you tired?" He asked softly.
"Not tired."
"In three days, you can come out." He said, to comfort her, but also to comfort himself, "Recuperate in it." ”
"Hmm." Time is limited, Scarlet didn't bend at all, and quickly said what Cao Wenfei and the others were going to say before they came, "Tan An, I want to talk to you about two things." First, what if you're in the field these days? Worms, robots must not be allowed to act rashly,?? The level of the insect is a high-risk species, and the robot's response will be intense, so you need to be very careful and let the robot take the initiative to avoid it. ”
"Yes, I guess, wait?? After the habits and harm methods of insects are more clear, the robot's coping strategy will be uniformly modified at the system level. Shang Tan'an nodded and persuaded, "Don't worry about this, relax, Dean Chun just said." ”
Scarlet fell on deaf ears: "The second thing. She looked at Shang Tan'an and said with a serious expression, "I'm sure there are no dead insects around what I see, but I'm not sure if there are any places I can't see." ”
The room was silent for an instant, and Shang Tan'an's face turned pale: "Scarlet ......" After only a while, his thoughts quickly became active, "Don't worry. There was a police report from you, and Tongqiao then sent an escort to answer it, it was the team led by the commander of Fang Lie just now, and they must have strictly controlled the scene. If they find dead insects in the area, they will definitely remind you or ask you many times. But they are just asking routine questions. Moreover, I spent the whole afternoon at Tongqiao, keeping an eye on the Bimang Observatory and not hearing much more about the situation there. You don't have to think too much about it. ”
"They may not have found the dead bugs, but they are always unsure, which is why they came to ask me. I'm not sure, in the grass, under the stones, in the nest ......" Scarlet looked at Shang Tan'an, and said calmly, "Tan'an, just now Mr. Ge and the guard soldier let me know that life and death can happen suddenly." ”
Scarlet thought about the activities of Ge Guanqing and the guards in the picture just now, everything was really normal, but their death was coming, and they only didn't know it.
"We filled out a form before the Chuxiu departed, do you remember?" Scarlet waved her hand to stop Shang Tan'an, and her pupils stared at him darkly, "When the time comes, you do it, please." ”
"Don't think about that, Scarlet." Shang Tan'an anxiously pressed the observation wall.
"Please." Scarlet scarlet strained his face, raised his palm and pasted it towards Shang Tan'an's handprint, just like the momentum of the oath of the power of attorney that day, Shang Tan'an was stunned, his palms were hot and he was about to move away quickly, he glanced at the opposite side of the scarlet that seemed to be separated in the crystal, closed his eyes, was silent for a moment, and asked in a deep voice: "Scarlet, what are you going to tell me to do?" ”
Scarlet opened her mouth and did not speak.
"Although you don't need me to do it for you at all, I'm here to promise," Shang Tan'an stared at Scarlet, "I'll promise." ”
Scarlet chuckled: "Tan'an, I know you'll agree." I'm glad I met you. ”
Shang Tan'an pursed his eyebrows, couldn't help but smile, and persuaded: "Then continue to be happy, don't think about anything else." ”
"I'll be done in a moment. It's not difficult, it's just slightly cumbersome. If I don't need the family property left by my father, I will make a public welfare fund and pay attention to women and children, and my father will be happy, and you will help me manage it. ”
Shang Tan'an stared at her, and said a simple word for a while: "Okay." ”
Scarlet exhaled and blinked, "Don't forget that there's yours in there." ”
Shang Tan'an turned his face, and after only a while, he skimmed it again, but saw Scarlet raised his index finger and pressed it to his lips, his eyes full of bright smiles. His words were on his lips, and he understood that she was hinting not to mention the past, so he pursed his lips, but did not speak after all.
"Tan An, I'm done with business." Scarlet smiled, "Let's talk about it." ”
