Lake house, one o'clock in the afternoon, villa living room. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In addition to Tang Ji, eighteen people, including Tang Ji who had just been born, gathered around the coffee table, or sat on the sofa, or sat on the wooden stool, quietly waiting for Tang Ji's arrival.

Twenty-four hours after her birth, Lynn had woken up, half an hour before Monica had fed her NAI, at this time the little one was lying in the stroller, his hands and feet were gently moving, looking at the world with these big eyes, Monica was sitting next to the stroller, looking down and smiling, letting Lin grasp her fingers with her little hands.

Click!

There was a knock on the door, Tang Ji held a few folders in his arms, pushed the door and walked into the living room, looked at everyone in the living room, stopped for a moment, and walked quickly to the coffee table.

"Hey! Baby, are you okay? Don Ji crouched beside the stroller, a serious smile on his face, and whispered a finger into the stroller to catch Lynn.

Of course, Lin would not answer Tang Ji's words, and her little hand lightly touched Tang Ji's fingers, and her big eyes looked at the big guy in front of her.

"Okay, let's talk" After visiting Lin, Tang Ji slowly stood up, the smile on his face retracted, sighed and walked to the side, pulled a chair and sat on the edge of the low cabinet next to the sofa, there was originally a place for him on the sofa, but probably because it was too close to Lin, he was afraid of disturbing it, so he sat farther away.

Tang Ji put the folders in his arms on the low cabinet, pressed his elbows on them, supported his chin with his palms, and turned his head to scan the people in the living room.

"What's wrong with your face?" Before Don Guy could speak, Monica's voice sounded on the side, and Monica had been looking at her coldly since Don Guy entered the living room, while Manila was sitting next to her, her face was a little worried.

"Oh...... It's okay! As he spoke, he opened his mouth and licked his tongue at the swollen cheek in his mouth, glanced at Monica, lowered his head again, and when he raised his head again, he began to speak.

"Then let's get started...... I know, you ...... Well...... Probably the most incomprehensible thing is why I did this experiment, I did it myself, you know I only have a master's degree, and there is only one person, even if I try human experiments, it is impossible to complete any breakthrough experiments or save mankind with my knowledge alone...... Unrealistic thoughts, behaviors...... We all know that zombie viruses are very difficult to entangle, and there are currently too many scientists in the world who are smarter than me and more talented than me are studying zombie viruses, but they have not made qualitative breakthroughs, but have just collected some very useful data......"

"Then ......" Tang Ji paused at this point, his mouth opened slightly, and his eyes swept the crowd again before continuing: "What do you care about...... Well, I want to thank you for your concern, you are the most precious treasure I have ever acquired in the end of the world, what you want to know the most, why am I doing this? Where is the motivation? We're doing well now, in fact, our lives have been on track since the beginning of my experiments, and I'm not a science maniac, I'm calm, I know I'm calm, it's ...... It may have been a mental illness, but I'm not so sure, I'm a non-scientific madman and a calm person, and at the beginning of a comfortable life, I chose to experiment with myself, risking any possible risks, not caring about my lover's feelings, and she was pregnant......"

"I'm sorry, Monica." Speaking of this, Don Guy suddenly turned his head to look at Monica and apologized again, Don Guy has always been very clear that if he died, Monica would be the biggest victim besides himself.

"You can't even imagine why I'm like this. I'm such a calm person, but this time I'm impulsive, huh...... Most of you here probably don't know that Manila and Monica should have heard me mention that before the end times began, I had a girlfriend who had been in love for many years......"

“…… I know ......" As Don Ji was speaking solemnly, Christine suddenly raised her hand and said timidly to Don Ji.

"Huh?" Don Guy turned his head to look at her.

"Is it the woman in the picture?" Christine asked in a whisper.

"You've seen it?" Tang Ji didn't deny it, and asked rhetorically.

"When I helped Manila sort out your clothes, I saw it once......" Christine said again, seeing that Don Guy was not angry and his face was not so scared.

"That's right, it's her ......" Tang Ji nodded at Christine and said, then twisted his head to the side, lowered his head and was silent for a while, raised his head and took a deep breath to look at everyone, and continued: "She is the first girl I met in the United States, we are neighbors, we went to the same high school, in high school, we fell in love, and then we went to the same university, and then followed the same tutor to study for a master's degree, and graduated at the same time, in my more than 20 years of life, half of the time, She spent it with me, and I love her so much......" Don Ji was silent again, bowing his head again, as if he remembered something, and it felt very uncomfortable.

"After that......" After a while, Tang Ji raised his head again, raised his hand and rubbed his face, and said again: "I followed another mentor and started to study for a master's degree in surgery, while she stayed with our biopharmaceutical supervisor and started to study for a doctorate, and then just when I was about to get another master's degree, I got the news that she was seriously ill, and the illness was very important...... It's leukemia. ”

"Leukemia is not a terminal disease, there is a possibility of cure, but in the United States, the medical expenses are amazingly high, the insurance company pays for most of the expenses for her, and only a small part needs to be paid by individuals, but even that small part of the cost, for her family, for me, is astronomical, and, with money, it may not be cured, it is the most desperate and helpless time in my life, that feeling, I will never forget in my life, I don't like that kind of ...... The feeling of being completely controlled by other things, completely powerless to resist, is very bad. Don Ji was a little excited, he probably realized this and stopped.

"To save her ......" After a pause of about ten seconds, Don Ji said again: "I sold my parents' property in California because my relationship with my parents has become very bad, maybe they are right, because it is not my responsibility, but I can't watch her die in a hospital bed."

"Because of her serious illness, the school raised money for her, her family gave everything, but the money still couldn't save her, the doctor said that the probability of curing her is very low, and the longer the treatment, the higher the cost, it will be unbearable, because of this, we also sued the insurance company, the insurance company does not want to pay such a high medical bill, in their words, it is like a waste of money, but we won the case."

"How much? How much does it cost? Christine interjected again and asked, the United States has been criticized for its ridiculously high medical expenses, but for the treatment of advanced leukemia, the specific amount of medical expenses is still vague to ordinary people.

What's more, Christine wants to know exactly how much money will make Don Ji despair.

Tang Ji turned his head to look at her, muttered for a while, and said, "She's already in the late stage...... About 20 million to 30 million dollars, she had been treated for two and a half years before the end of the world, for which the insurance company had paid 15 million, and I have about 3 million here, if it had not been for this catastrophe, she would have already started receiving a bone marrow transplant around November last year, and she would have survived. ”

"But this catastrophe has ruined everything!" Tang Ji finally shook his head slightly, his eyes were a little confused, and he lowered his head again.

In order to save his girlfriend, Tang Ji gave everything he had, maybe it was the woman he loved most in his life, but after the end of the world, Tang Ji did not go to her, the reason is very simple, because the end of the world broke out, not to mention whether she would become a zombie or be eaten by zombies without resistance when she was seriously ill in bed, just stopping the medicine was enough to kill her, and she could not survive.

"Ahem......" Tang Ji, who lowered his head, coughed heavily, raised his hand and scratched the corner of his eye, raised his head and said again: "The reason why I am telling you this is, of course, to let you understand me, understand my helplessness and despair at that time, it was the first time in my life, that feeling...... And just half a year ago, I went through it a second time, this time I was bitten, you haven't been bitten, maybe it's hard for you to understand how hard those two hours were for me, when we were hiding in the gym, the time hadn't passed, Robbie kept looking at me, I was thinking, should I do something, but I found that I couldn't do anything, I could only wait, or die, or live, I said, I hated this feeling of not being able to fight. ”

"I can't face death calmly, I'm like most people, if I have to die and let me make a choice, then I will choose to leave this world prepared."

"This is one of the motivations for this experiment, but not all, there is another reason, that is, whether this experiment will be successful, my knowledge is limited, no matter how much I make up for my knowledge, it will not be possible to reach the level of my mentor in a short time, I know this very well, and I will not blindly use my own experiments, then I may not survive the first night of the experiment."

"Actually, this idea was in my mind at the beginning of the end of the world, but I never wanted to put it into practice, nor did I think of experimenting with it myself."

"Ahem, you all know, AIDS, a very terrible disease, destroys the body's immune system, it cannot be cured, it can only be controlled, many people hear this word, and some very bad thoughts will appear in their minds, but ......" Don Qui mentioned AIDS inexplicably, but no one interjected, all looked at him,

Tang Ji said this and pulled a long tone, his eyes swept over everyone present, and continued: "But...... In this world, there is a group of people who are born immune to AIDS, they are not afraid of AIDS infection, this kind of people are mainly distributed in Europe, according to the survey, ten percent of Europeans have a variant gene that can resist HIV in their bodies, and they have a protein called fox03a in their DNA, which can defend against the attack of HIV, and their ancestors also relied on this variant gene to avoid the threat of the Black Death from the black death that once ravaged Europe. ”

"I'm telling you this to let you understand that no virus is invincible, in fact, every one of us, every survivor living in the last days, without exception, including my newborn daughter Lin, we all have genes in our bodies that can resist the zombie virus, this gene allows us to avoid the threat of the zombie virus in the air, just like the AIDS I gave example, we are equivalent to the 10% of people in Europe who can resist AIDS, but our body's resistance to the zombie virus is limited."

"Zombie virus, according to my research, this is a mixed virus, there are two ways to run in the human body, one is through the blood, the other is through the nerves, but there is a very strange phenomenon, that is, it will only enter the human brain through the blood, and the speed of movement in the human body is not limited by the speed of blood circulation, they are like having eyes, quickly passing through the blood in the human body, until the human brain, after killing the person, it will completely enter the nervous system."

"All the viruses we know are alive, and only living ones can be called viruses, and zombie viruses are also, when zombie viruses enter the human body, they will multiply, they will engulf and destroy cells to cause harm to the human body, and produce toxins, after killing people, the virus will innervate the human body through the central nervous system 'resurrection', and then the virus will multiply very quickly, destroy the human body, change the human body, and eventually turn the human body into the appearance of zombies outside, or it can already be said that it is a new species."

"In terms of the way of destroying human cells, the zombie virus is not much different from some of the viruses we are familiar with, for everyone living in the last days, there is a substance in the body that can resist the zombie virus, which exists in our DNA, and this substance can be improved, simply put, human beings can improve their immunity to the zombie virus, reduce the probability of being killed and controlled by the zombie virus, and the easiest way to enhance immunity to the zombie virus is to continuously stimulate the human body with the zombie virus."

"This is what I've been doing, in fact, my idea is very simple, since I can survive the outbreak of the end times, my body must have immunity, but it is very weak, as long as I properly inject the zombie virus into my body, then the immunity must be improved." Don Ji finally stated the purpose of his experiment.

In fact, if Tang Ji is just a simple experiment to improve immunity, he doesn't need to experiment with himself at all, there are so many wicked people in the last days, he can only go to find it, and it's okay to catch a few hateful ones back for experiments, although it is against humanity, but this is the end of the world, if he wants to do it, he won't care about any humanitarianism.

But Tang Ji didn't do that, not how great he was, but he wanted to get 100% immunity to the zombie virus by himself, not others, and time waits for no one, it can be seen from the fact that he has not completed the experiment for more than half a year, the experiment to enhance immunity to the zombie virus takes a long time to complete, if he uses other people to do the experiment, even if the first person succeeds, then he also needs the same amount of time to complete this experiment on his body, and more importantly, Everyone's physical condition is different, although he has mastered the method, but the danger of the second experiment is not much less than the first experiment.

Tang Ji's words are very easy to understand, improve immunity through virus stimulation, because immune substances must exist, so the experiment may be successful, but it does not mean that people here will understand Tang Ji's approach, Tang Ji finally said simply, but the danger in it, you can know it if you think about it with your ass, if the virus is really so easy to overcome, it will not be Tang Ji's turn to do experiments here, at that time it has been a few months since the outbreak of the end times, if it is really very feasible, the military will definitely try.

It can be said that Tang Ji is crazy, every time he injects the virus into his body, he is walking in front of the god of death, maybe that time, the god of death will drag him away.

"Have you considered danger?" The living room was very quiet, and after Tang Ji finished speaking, Monica, who was sitting on the sofa, asked with a cold face, she was still angry, although Tang Ji is not dead now, but the things he did did did not consider other people's feelings at all, which made people feel cold.

"Wow...... Hmm......" Tang Ji looked at Monica, responded very imposingly, as if he was a little shorter, responded in a low voice, groaned, and said: "Actually, the danger xing is not as big as you think, I am still very sure, if there is a problem, I can stop it in time." ”

"You're lying." Monica directly rejected what Tang Ji said, and said with a cold face unceremoniously: "Grasp? Where do you get your certainty? If you were sure that you would write a suicide note every day? Even if you write it once a month, you write every day, you can die every day, right? You're sure of this? As she spoke, Monica became emotional, stood up and yelled at Donji.

Don Ji looked at Monica, opened his mouth, and was speechless.

In the past six months, Tang Ji has done the most to measure the data of his body and the duke's body, and then use a complex formula to calculate the number of viruses injected into the body next time.

According to the news from the military, the infection rate of canines against the zombie virus is twice as high as that of humans, although it is known after Tang Ji's experiment that this number is not stable, but it will not be too different, that is to say, if the zombie virus is injected into the duke's body once, and the duke is not infected, then like the virus that is twice as high as the human body, people will not be infected, which is theoretically so, but when the actual cao is made, Tang Ji is very conservative, so there is still a certain safety.

"Wow", Lynn suddenly cried in the stroller next to Monica, and she seemed to be scared to cry by Monica's voice.

"Oh baby, I'm sorry, Mommy was wrong, Mommy was wrong......" Monica immediately changed her face, squatted down with a panicked and anxious look on her face, and picked up Lin from the stroller, holding her in her arms while apologizing and coaxing. It's a mess
