The Chaos Creatures' special car quickly took Hawking and his party to the Chaos Creatures headquarters. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Wang Jia finally couldn't help it in the car, and asked Shen Huai: "Boss, is our company going to start cooperating with Cambridge University?" Last time, it seems that people from the Cambridge School of Biology went to Luxembourg to see our spore breeding center, and they seemed very interested. Finally, I talked to Dr. Zhang about it and there was no follow-up. ”

Shen Huai glanced at the rearview mirror, the business car followed closely behind, and he said: "No, this time they are not here to cooperate, but for Hawking's private affairs." ”

"Private?" Wang Jia reacted immediately, "You mean Hawking taught him ......?"

Shen Huai nodded calmly, "I don't know until everything is discussed, and Jiang Fatzi may have a companion." ”

Hawking's assistants and entourage couldn't help but admire the small Chaos Creatures Headquarters, they never thought that such an inconspicuous headquarters, a few small laboratories could create miracles in the scientific and technological world.

Wang Jia was afraid of being looked down upon by the guests, so she hurriedly added: "We also have large research centers in Chengdu and Zhengzhou. ”

After a brief visit, Wang Jia went to rest with his entourage, while Hawking and his personal assistant, Ms. Emily, were ushered into Shen Huai's office.

Shen Huai sat on a stool, observing this great old man so closely for the first time.

He sat quietly in a wheelchair, his head could only be tilted on the right shoulder because of the disease, and his mouth could not even close automatically, and Ms. Emily would wipe the old man's accidentally dripping saliva with a tissue from time to time.

Regardless of the fact that this old man was the greatest physicist and cosmologist of the twentieth century, the fact that he was able to live strong after fighting illness for half a century is in itself a kind of strong perseverance and a miracle of life.

It is important to know that less than 20% of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) survive three years in clinical practice, and this old man has been fighting against it for half a century.

Shen Huai looked at the old man's eyes at this time, his deep eyes were like a vast and boundless universe, and his plain eyes seemed to be the mystery of life.

Shen Huai thought that if he was paralyzed in a wheelchair like this one day and couldn't move, would he not even have the courage to live.

Assistant Emily took the two cups of hot tea handed by Liu Wen, thanked him and said, "Professor Shen, Professor Hawking is inconvenient for instant communication due to physical reasons, and he can only output a word every fifteen to twenty minutes by moving his eyeballs now. However, his meaning has been recorded in advance, and I asked him to convey it. ”

Shen Huai nodded and said, "It's an honor in my life to be able to meet the professor. ”

Emily put down her teacup and said, "While you may already know what the professor is doing, I think I need to elaborate on that.

In the 60s of the last century, the professor was unfortunately diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis at the age of 21, after which the disease gradually invaded his healthy body, especially the pneumonia surgery in the 80s, which made him completely unable to speak.

At first, the professor was able to use his fingers, but when his illness worsened, he could only help with computer work and communication. Just over a decade ago, the professor could no longer move his fingers and could only spell words with the movement of his eyeballs. ”

Emily was silent for a while, and then said very sadly: "More than ten years ago, the speed at which the professor spelled words was more than ten or twenty words per minute, a few years ago the speed has dropped to one or two words per minute, and now ...... One every fifteen minutes or so. ”

Shen Huai sighed and comforted him a little palely: "We are sad. ”

Emily nodded, and continued, "A few years ago, the professor had stopped all research work, and his body did not allow him to work anymore. The professor knew that his time was running out and that he had a lot of regrets, and the professor communicated with me many times that if he could have a healthy body, he would definitely do more than he is doing now. ”

Then, Emily clicked on a document on Hawking's computer and said, "This is a document that the professor has spent a long time typing in advance." ”

After a few seconds, I saw the cold, mechanical computer-synthesized voice begin to read out the words slowly:

"Dear Shen, it's a pleasure to meet you in your lifetime. In the midst of my despair for life, I saw reports of Kaos and saw that you had saved countless patients with Ino and the Interrupted Spore Reproduction technique. You are the kindest person in the world today, and you are also the most universally valuable scientific and technological work.

In a physical sense, matter is eternal and immortal. In a philosophical sense, everything comes into being and dies, and so does life and death.

I am not afraid of death, and the reason why life is meaningful is that human beings know their own death and do infinite things in a limited time.

But I have many regrets, I can't run on the court like a normal person, I can't hug my beloved children hard, I can't fulfill the dream of my youth, I can't peek into the mysteries of the universe, and realize that human beings are a journey in time and space.

I know I'm running out of time, and I hope you can help me. ”

After the computer finished reading this short document, Hawking moved his eyes up and down, as if to make sure that the words of the document were in his heart.

Shen Huai reached out and motioned for Emily to continue.

Emily glanced at Hawking, and finally said what the old man was thinking, "The professor heard about the blocking spore reproduction technology, and wanted to ask Professor Shen if there is a way to treat Professor Hawking's situation through spore reproduction technology." ”

Emily sighed, "The professor's health is getting worse and worse, and his resistance is not as good as before, and a cold last year almost made the professor unable to recover." The professor is very calm in the face of death, and has a little luxury, that is, to see if he can get up and walk around like a healthy person before he dies. ”

Shen Huai got up from his seat, added some water to Emily's cup, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Professor, for your trust in the Chaos Creatures, the Blocking Spore Reproduction Technique has indeed saved a lot of need. Official transplant people. ”

"To be honest, we have just increased the level and application of the technology to block spore reproduction, and for patients with brain injuries, they can be treated accordingly."

Just as Emily was pleasantly surprised, she said, "Really? ”

Shen Huai shrugged, "However, it still depends on the situation." If the brain has just been damaged, or if the damage is small, the more likely it is to be repaired. In the case of the professor, severe motor neuron disease, and it has been decades, the motor neuron nerve has long been morbid and rigid, and it is very difficult to get the blocking spore reproduction technology to automatically recognize and repair it, and I can even tell you for sure that the probability is 0. ”
