Zhou Zhen didn't know the reason for the name of the light of science and technology before, and he never thought about this problem.

In the era of the government, people were very bored, and always liked to give some strange names to the buildings, and there was a palm-sized lawn downstairs that dared to be called a city garden, and a pedestrian bridge between the buildings became a sky courtyard, and the residences attached to the artificial river were all river-view houses.

He had thought that the Light of Technology would be the same, until he saw Natasha's warehouse on the thirty-fifth floor.

The 35th floor, which is more than twice as tall as the 36th floor, is divided into two floors by transparent nanomaterials, and is more of a small science museum than a warehouse.

The upper space is divided into a labyrinth of hundreds of bookshelves filled with books and documents, a drop in the bucket of books in Bernard's office.

The lower floor displays a dazzling array of instruments and technological products, most of which can not be named, and a small part of the recognized ones are mostly extinct antiques, from old-fashioned computers, digital video cameras, all kinds of vehicles, to 3D printers, intelligent machine tools, communication base stations, so that Zhou quality feels dizzying.

"The light of science and technology is the government's scientific research center, after being captured by the enterprise alliance, a large number of instruments and equipment and scientific research materials have been transferred, and the rest of these were supposed to be destroyed, but the employees in charge of the destruction work probably have a conscience and hide them at the top level, and then the energy crisis broke out, and the elevator was unusable for a long time, and these fish that slipped through the net were gradually forgotten."

Natasha retrieved a hand-held device from the pile of old objects, and explained to Zhou Zhi the origin of the treasures as she debugged them, the front end of the device was translucent spiral, and the back end was an electronic component wrapped in a plastic shell, and the overall shape was like a pistol drill.

After debugging, she plugged the device in, turned to aim at Zhou Zhi, and pulled the trigger without a retainer.

The lights on the ceiling suddenly went out, and then came back on again a few seconds later.

Zhou Zhen was caught off guard by this shot, he subconsciously jumped two steps away, and groped his body up and down in a panic to check if there was an extra hole.

Natasha handed the device to him casually: "Don't look for it, this is a small plasma spiral tube, which can release directional EMP, that is, electromagnetic pulse, which does not hurt people, but just short-circuits the nanochips in your body." ”

Zhou Zhen looked incredulous, took it and touched the spiral-shaped "muzzle", his fingertips were instantly blistered, he shook his fingers and asked, "That's it?" Are you sure? ”

Natasha nodded: "This thing is very old, and it is not surprising that you don't know, in the era of abundant energy, this is the standard weapon of the army, which is used to destroy enemy electronic equipment at close range. ”

"So, Jiang Xuanyuan and his AI clones can no longer remotely control the ricin in my body?"

He asked, incredulously.

Natasha walked over to the printer and pulled out a piece of paper, and while reading the contents, she replied a little perfunctorily: "Well, you bring this thing back, and your hundred or so recruits can also come with a shot each, if you still have the energy to charge it." ”

Zhou Zhen was stunned for a while, making sure that there was no joke in Natasha's tone, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief, the time bomb that had plagued him for nearly a month was finally lifted, although ricin was still in the body, but getting rid of the potential threat of the AI clone could be regarded as completing the set goal.

Natasha's face did not have the slightest joy, but suddenly a little worried, she walked quickly upstairs: "You rest by yourself down for a while, I'll go up and check some information." ”

Zhou Zhen hummed and couldn't wait to get into the sea of antiques.

Since he reached the thirty-fifth floor, he was attracted by a brand-new nuclear-powered locomotive, and at the moment he was in a state of relief, and he couldn't help but want to play with it, completely unaware of Natasha's strange mood.

When he served in the army, he was a locomotive fan, gasoline engine, electric engine, nuclear fission engine, no matter what kind of energy driven military locomotive, he could control it with ease, it is not accurate to say that he was at ease, and no one in the entire special battalion was his opponent regardless of mountain off-road or field racing.

"Boss, is there a shortage of drivers for your museum? It's a lot more comfortable than riding a horse. ”

He straddled the locomotive, skillfully pulling the clutch, gearing, fueling, closing his eyes and imagining, and his eyes were full of pictures of chasing the wind and galloping.

"Save it, it's just an empty shelf, and the engine has long been dismantled by the corporate alliance."

Natasha's voice came from the maze of books overhead.

The enterprise alliance prohibits the possession of motor vehicles, whether electric or nuclear power, once it is investigated and punished, it is a major violation, but this locomotive has no engine, it is just a locomotive model, and it is not a violation to collect a locomotive model.

Zhou Zhen felt a moment of disappointment and looked up to find Natasha, above the transparent floor, Natasha was looking at the information in front of the bookshelf.

Inadvertently, he saw some pictures that made his blood spurt, the seat cushion seemed to become hard, and a certain part was painful, so he moved his sitting position, patted the body and sighed: "Man, it's better to ride you than to ride her." ”

Natasha had already seen his small movements, and greeted him coldly: "You may not be able to ride anything, come up and show you something." ”

Zhou Zhen reluctantly got out of the car, went upstairs and walked to Natasha's side, and Natasha threw him a folder: "The ricin information and your physical test report are here." ”

Zhou Zhen opened the folder and glanced at it, the text was neither Esperanto nor Chinese characters, he didn't know a word, and the illustration looked like an abstract painting. ”

"I know that I can't be saved, and I can still be so calm."

Natasha held a tome of hard-cover books and didn't lift her head: "This means that you don't understand it at all." ”

Zhou Zhen smiled and closed the folder: "Then what are you doing for me." ”

Natasha also smiled: "Giving you something in your hand will help ease the fear." ”

Zhou Zhen moved his gaze to her chest and teased, "Then I want to grab something else." ”

Natasha glanced at him and explained unhurriedly: "P-type ricin is not an invention of the enterprise alliance, Jiang Xuanyuan is just picking up people's teeth, government scientists have long been developing a new type of castor that can secrete inhibitors, the principle is not difficult, castor protein contains two polypeptide chains of AB, after entering the human body, the two polypeptide chains will separate, and then cooperate with each other to cause the loss of human cell function, as long as the castor can synthesize substances that prevent the separation of the AB chain during genetic modification, The toxin of ricin will be inhibited. ”

Zhou Zhen was confused when he listened: "Can you speak human words?" ”

Natasha felt that she was playing the piano to the cow, and continued to explain with her emotions: "The paper in your hand demonstrates the technical feasibility of the modified ricin, and even mentions the possibility of using nanochips to control the release of inhibitors, but before the clinical trials can be conducted, the government coalition has already collapsed, and Jiang Xuanyuan should have obtained this paper to make the so-called P-type ricin." ”

Zhou Zhen was still not interested in these historical stories, and joked impatiently: "So what? Jiang Xuanyuan is a plagiarism dog, you can go to the patent department of the enterprise alliance to report him? ”

Natasha took the folder from his hand, pulled out a test report from it, and pointed to the dense text and pictures inside: "It's a pity that Jiang Xuanyuan is a half-hanger, when he modified the castor gene, he completely followed the paper, and there was no clinical experiment, so the cultivated castor bean, the metabolism rate of the inhibitor synthesized by itself is much higher than the metabolism rate of ricin, that is, it cannot inhibit toxicity for a long time." ”

Zhou Zhen finally understood what she meant, and the disdainful smile on his face disappeared, and he asked in a stunned whisper, "How long do I have left?" ”

Natasha put the folder back on the bookshelf and sighed: "I used a quantum computer to calculate, according to your metabolic rate, if you don't continue to take inhibitors, there will be at most a month left." ”

Zhou Zhen paced anxiously around the bookshelf, waiting for death This kind of thing is not once born and twice ripe, the long torment in prison is like yesterday, and then thinking of the more than 100 brothers collected from the plantation, he slammed his fist on his thigh: "There is only one way to go, immediately find Jiro Oshima to retrieve the immortal parasitic system." ”

Natasha was still buried in the brick-like book, still calm and rational: "Well, but if you want to go back to the Changsheng system, will the Shennong Group still support the Armored Mouse Company at the enlarged meeting?" ”

Hearing her mention the Armored Mouse Company, Zhou Zhen suddenly felt a little angry: "Thanks to you, there is no Armored Mouse Company now." ”

But as soon as this sentence came out, he immediately regretted it again, Natasha reported the Armored Rat Company to help him in the end, and this anger should not be sprinkled on her.

But Natasha didn't seem annoyed, shook her head and said: "No, you're wrong, Thomas was protected by Jiro Oshima, he is the majority shareholder of the company, as long as he doesn't have violations, the armored rat company will not be deregistered, it's just..."

Natasha's words suddenly froze, and her head was buried even lower.

"Just what?"

Zhou Zhen asked impatiently, this time the decision could not go wrong, he was already unbearable to face more accidents.

"It's nothing, there are things I want to do but you can't, so there's no need to say it."

Natasha looked up and squeezed out a smile, a smile mixed with pity and disappointment.
