9. Experimental turmoil
Professor Heng Liya was surprised to see that the insulated bed was full of nutrient solution, which turned into a blue liquid overnight.
She pressed the button next to the insulated bed and opened the FRP lid on the insulated bed, and suddenly the entire laboratory was filled with a smell of corpses. The smell was disgusting, causing the paramedic staff around her to quickly run away.
Professor Heng wrinkled his nose, endured the disgusting stench, and continued to carefully inspect the No. 1 Ancient Corpse, but fortunately it was intact.
She immediately shouted to the nursing staff who ran out of the laboratory: "Xiao Zou, hurry up and bring a utensil, I want to test these foul-smelling liquids!" ”
Nurse Xiao Zou responded and immediately ran to get the test utensils.
Heng Liya looked at the foul-smelling blue liquid all over the bed, and it became more and more viscous. She couldn't help but wonder:
[The liquid is blue, is it an algae?] Is that stench because of corruption? But it smells like corpses...... Is it any wonder that the body of the No. 1 Ancient Corpse is infected with an unknown germ in space? ……】
She was thinking about it when General Jing Zhiqiang walked into the laboratory with a bald, short and fat middle-aged man.
Before General Jing Zhiqiang arrived, he spoke first: "Professor Heng, I brought you a top biological scientist in the real country. ”
Professor Heng wanted to greet her, but the two guests had already come to her. General Jing Zhiqiang continued:
"This is Zhang Weixing, a famous professor at Shinkook National University and a biology expert."
Zhang Weixing stretched out his hand to shake hands with Heng Liya, the moment he met Heng Liya's eyes, the smile on his face suddenly stopped, he looked at Heng Liya carefully, and asked:
"Professor Heng, you're not an Earthling, are you?"
Heng Liya's true identity is a real domestic secret, and only the top management of the Ministry of Defense and the research institute knows. Asked this, General Jing Zhiqiang couldn't help but answer for Heng Liya:
"Professor Heng Liya's bloodline is quite special, hehe. In short, she is now an expert professor at the Institute of Biology, and is currently responsible for the protection of the No. 1 ancient corpse in the laboratory. The two of them had a good exchange. ”
Zhang Weixing nodded thoughtfully, turning his attention to the pungent smell of corpses: "What smell?" Why do you stink so ......?"
General Jing Zhiqiang also felt the smell unpleasant, and answered: "What's wrong with your laboratory, the smell is pervasive, why don't you hurry up?" ”
At this time, Xiao Zou walked in with the utensils, she heard the conversation, put down the utensils, and opened the window of the laboratory.
Professor Zhang Weixing followed the smell and found the No. 1 corpse in the insulated bed, and he endured the unpleasant stench, walked forward, and carefully observed the No. 1 corpse in the insulated bed.
The more he observed, the more ugly his face became...... But he tried his best to control his emotions, turned around and asked General Jing Zhiqiang beside him in a calm tone:
"General Jing, where did you find this corpse?"
Jing Zhiqiang replied: "I found it in the earth orbit space of the earth planet, how did I find it?" Feel like you know about this corpse? ”
"No, no, I don't understand." Professor Zhang Weixing tried his best to cover up, "How can I know about Martians." ”
"Martians?" Professor Heng Liya asked suspiciously, "Are you so sure that he is a Martian?" ”
Professor Zhang Weixing knew that he had missed his mouth, so he hurriedly corrected it: "This is my guess...... It's nonsense. ”
Professor Heng Liya was even more puzzled: "Martian? As far as I know, there are no humans at all on Mars, which is far away from the planet, so where are the Martians? ”
Professor Zhang Weixing knew that he couldn't justify himself, just at this time, the nurse Xiao Zou was holding utensils and sampling tools to sample the solution in the holding bed.
"What are you doing?"
Xiao Zou replied: "Sampling." Professor Heng is investigating the cause of the smell of corpses. ”
Heng Liya answered: "I want to test the composition of the solution, analyze the cause of corpse odor, and prescribe the right medicine for the next step." ”
Zhang Weixing asked again: "What solution do you use for the No. 1 ancient corpse?" ”
Heng Liya replied: "Nutrient solution." ”
Zhang Weixing said angrily after hearing this: "Why do you use the nutrient solution indiscriminately, you should use preservatives to preserve the corpse, you use the nutrient solution to accelerate the decay of the corpse, no wonder this liquid is so smelly, this is a sign of the decay of the corpse, and it can no longer be used." ”
Heng Liya obviously disagreed, arguing: "With preservatives? This No. 1 corpse is not dead yet, we are trying to find a way to rescue it, you use preservatives, you don't want to resurrect No. 1 corpse at all. ”
Zhang Weixing pointed to the No. 1 corpse in the insulated bed and asked, "Do you think he has a chance of survival?" He was clearly a corpse that could not be saved. ”
"We did all kinds of tests on his body, except for his inability to breathe and his heartbeat, all indicators were normal. Prove that others are alive. ”
Zhang Weixing smiled mockingly and continued to ask, "Do you know about aliens?" ”
Heng Liya could only shake her head.
Zhang Weixing continued: "Since he is an alien, we can't compare the physical indicators of the terrestrial people with the aliens, let alone look at the terrestrial people's eyes. On the surface, the signs of this corpse are the same as those of us living earthlings, but from my years of experience in biological research, this No. 1 corpse is actually dead long ago, and there is no need to spend manpower and material resources to rescue it. You have spent more than half a year, you have exhausted all methods, and what is the result? Did you save him? Everything you have done in the past has been in vain, wasting a lot of money and resources of the country, and such useless work cannot continue. ”
Heng Liya retorted, "With my intuition, I firmly believe that he is alive. Our rescue is not without results, this alien, when he first came, he was skinny and skinny, after more than half a year of rescue, he has grown flesh on his body, and a dead body will never have vital signs, which is the best proof that he is still alive. ”
"You think he's still alive?" Zhang Weixing pointed to the corpse in the warming bed and said, "His corpse has been stinking and rotting, and you are still talking nonsense with your eyes open!" ”
At this time, General Jing Zhiqiang, who was standing aside, finally couldn't help but speak, he turned his head to Heng Liya and said:
"Professor Heng, don't argue, I think Professor Zhang Weixing has a point, just listen to him. After all, he is the authority in our geobiological community. In a few days, he will be transferred to the Zhenguo Biological Research Institute as the director, and he will be your boss. From now on, your work will be at her disposal. ”
Heng Liya still insisted on her judgment: "I don't think the body is really decomposed, how did the blue liquid in the warming bed come about, and where does the rancid smell come from?" Only after the test results are out can we be conclusive! ”
Zhang Weixing obviously didn't want to argue with Heng Liya anymore, so he left in a hurry under the pretense that there was something wrong with the university.
General Jing Zhiqiang originally wanted to talk to Heng Liya again, and invited her to lunch by the way, but the president called to discuss something important and left the laboratory.
Heng Liya took the opportunity to ask the nursing staff to change the blue liquid in the warming bed, and continued to fill the warming bed with nutrient solution.
-
A few days later, Professor Zhang Weixing was transferred to the Institute of Biology by the Zhenguo government as the director.
On the first day he went to work at the research institute, under the pretext that Professor Heng Liya did not protect the No. 1 ancient corpse, he revoked her position as the head of the laboratory and replaced it with him himself. If he hadn't cared about General Jing Zhiqiang, he might not even want Heng Liya to be a general assistant in the laboratory...... Yes, he didn't want her to participate in the Ancient Corpse Lab No. 1, but he couldn't find a suitable reason to refuse her participation, so he could only leave her aside as a general assistant.
Heng Liya wanted to prove that her judgment was correct, the measures taken and the work she did some time ago were correct, and she wanted to persuade Director Zhang Weixing to continue to do it according to her original rescue plan. However, after Director Zhang Weixing took over the head of the No. 1 Ancient Corpse Laboratory, Heng Liya stood directly aside, and could only routinely stand aside as an "audience" every day.
Director Zhang Weixing ordered the nursing staff to replace the nutrient solution in the warming bed and fill it with embalming solution, which he said was necessary to prevent the No. 1 ancient corpse from continuing to decompose and preserve the body of the No. 1 ancient corpse.
As an assistant, Heng Liya's movement has been restricted, and she can't enter and leave the No. 1 Ancient Corpse Laboratory casually, and her opinions and suggestions naturally won't even be listened to by the caregivers.
Even if Heng Liya had thousands of reasons, she couldn't persuade Zhang Weixing to give up embalming for the No. 1 ancient corpse...... Looking at the pungent special embalming liquid filled into the warming bed, her heart was sad, but she couldn't do anything about it, she just wanted to:
[It's over, Director Zhang did this, obviously because he didn't want to resurrect the No. 1 ancient corpse......]
