When the elder sister Qin Min and his wife came to the house with their brother Qin Hai's family, Qin Tao was comforting the mother of the three of them. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

When Qin's father was diagnosed with mid-stage lung cancer, the whole family collectively decided to hide the truth from his father, only telling him that it was a severe cold and pharyngitis, but this did not hide it from his mother. My parents have been together for more than 50 years, and my old father has also been on the battlefield, although he was only a big soldier when he finally retired from the army, but the special system of the military family is still there. My mother is also a strong person, she was not overwhelmed by her wife's cancer, and she still accompanied her father as usual, without letting her sick father see anything abnormal.

Seeing that his family was gathered, Qin Tao asked his brother-in-law and sister-in-law to avoid it first, and then decide whether to let them participate after his three siblings discussed it with his mother. Although it was obvious that the brother-in-law and sister-in-law were very dissatisfied with Qin Tao's attitude, they still went out first at his insistence.

"Okay, Taotao, you are also in your 40s, you have to let your brother-in-law and sister-in-law go out, there is something that the family can't say." Sister Qin Min is also slightly dissatisfied with her younger brother.

"If it's just a family matter, then naturally my brother-in-law and sister-in-law must know, but this not only involves outsiders, but even involves the country, and the things I am going to tell you have been suspected of leaking, if it weren't for Dad's illness and other needs for your decision, I wouldn't even involve you." Qin Tao said helplessly.

"Tao'er, if it involves a leak of state secrets, then you still don't need to say it. You can't get your dad to leak your secrets and cause losses to the country. Mother spoke first.

"There will be no loss for the state. This matter has a degree of secrecy, but it cannot be disclosed to the public, and it has not yet reached the level of top secret. Qin Tao didn't dare to have any opinion on his mother's instructions.

"Dad's illness, we all know it. I just gave my dad a pill that I wasn't sure would work, and what I couldn't decide now was how we would decide when he woke up. ”

"According to the person who gave me this potion, after taking this potion, my father will sleep for five and a half hours, and when he wakes up, he will fall into a state of extreme hunger, and all I can decide is whether to feed him or not." Qin Tao paused here when he said this.

"What is the difference and consequences between giving your dad something and not giving it?" Qin's mother didn't think that her youngest son was an unfilial son, and would be willing to starve her father.

"The potion lasts for six hours. During these six hours, if the patient eats or exercises vigorously, the body will not be able to supply enough energy because the body's functions are dispersed. The reason why the agent only sleeps for five and a half hours after taking the medicine is that during the last period, the patient needs to stay awake to completely remove some special substances that exist in the nervous system. If these substances are not removed, the cancer cells will not be completely killed, or the cancer will only be greatly relieved, but not completely cured, but only return to the state where there are just a few cancer cells. To put it simply, if Dad wakes up and is busy eating because he is hungry, his cancer will not be completely cured. Qin Tao explained.

"Then what can't be decided, starving for half an hour to completely cure cancer, is a person who will choose to suffer from this hunger." This is my sister Qin Min.

"Little brother, are you not sober, do you still need to choose?"

"Tao'er, you definitely can't make a decision because you can't cure your father, and there is nothing confidential about what you just said. Let's talk about the reasons why it makes it hard for you to decide. "Ginger is still old and spicy.

"Anyway, because that person once said something to me that I couldn't decide." Qin Tao smiled bitterly, there is still a showdown, but this is something that can stun people.

"Mom, brother, sister, since Dad got cancer, I'm sure you've all read some descriptions of the specificity of cancer cells."

"We all know a common sense that normal cells in the human body fluctuate in the number of divisions up and down 60 times, and the average survival time is 2.4 years. However, cancer cells have three characteristics: infinite proliferation and division, transformation and easy metastasis. Because of its infinite proliferation, it will naturally destroy normal cell tissue. It is easy to metastasize, which is why cancer is difficult to treat. ”

"But that's also the basis for the gentleman who gave me the potion to tell me the news."

"What do you think would happen if cancer cells could artificially control the number of divisions, the number of divisions, and the speed at which they divide?" Speaking of this, Qin Tao pressed his brows and rubbed it lightly a few times, he had a headache! To bet, or not to bet?

The three were dumbfounded.

"Little brother, what do you mean is to let the cancer cells completely replace the normal cells of the human body, and then because of the infinite division of the cancer cells, 。。。。。。" Qin Hai was the first to react.

Qin Tao nodded and said. "It's the question that keeps me from deciding. If what that gentleman said was true, then cancer was, as he said, a gift from heaven to mankind. ”

Mother and Qin Min only now realized what Qin Tao meant.

"Wait, Tao'er, do you mean that if the cancer can be completely controlled, then the patient can live forever like in the myth?" Mother Qin now also somewhat understood the reason why Qin Tao couldn't decide.

Qin Tao nodded silently. "If someone else had said that, my first instinct would have been to send him to a neurological hospital. But the gentleman ...... I really can't believe it and I can't believe it. ”

"Taotao, do you mean that person has a special identity and is very credible?" Qin Min's first concern was credibility.

"That's why I said that there would be a question of confidentiality." Qin Tao was very helpless, and talked about all the journeys from the first time he saw Jiang You to the time he got the potion this morning, but his name was hidden, and he was only called that gentleman. He believes that although his brother has a little power, he is still measured, and he will not and dare not investigate this kind of person.

After listening to Qin Tao's description of the gentleman, the three members of the family also frowned.

With Jiang You's ability to be exposed, it is obvious that it is impossible for hackers to obtain information that is obtained in normal ways. And then what is clearly meaningful, something that the current body of knowledge simply cannot understand, will certainly not be known knowledge. So now what he said about cancer is a difficult choice.

In the blink of an eye, it was noon. The brother-in-law and sister-in-law who were wandering outside came back, and after knocking at the door, Qin Tao let them go back to the room. Mother Qin looked at her daughter-in-law and son-in-law, and felt that it might not be a way to directly hand over this choice problem to them.

"Xiao Hao Xiaoya, you said that one option is to completely cure the cancer, and the other option is not to completely cure the cancer and only treat it to the state of just infection, but to reserve a special opportunity that no one can refuse, how do you choose?"
