Chapter 139 "You are all victims of this era."
Chapter 139 "You are all victims of this era."
Liu Ruosong officially entered the laboratory building.
At the beginning, he didn't completely take over the experimental process of the entire laboratory building, but only asked for a small research team, and the main research leader was still an old professor from the medical school.
Liu Ruosong followed the previous path step by step step by step. With the sample of B-92 in his hand and the experience accumulated in several lifetimes, he extracted the experimental drug sample in just a few months.
Because of the real progress, Liu Ruosong's status in the laboratory building is getting higher and higher.Half a year later, he transferred Lu Li from the logistics department as an assistant.
Lu Li's life has nothing to do with genetic research, and he doesn't have any relevant research experience, whether it's a university major or social work.But because it was Liu Ruosong who said it himself, Zhao Jincheng turned a blind eye and let him go.
Liu Ruosong secretly researched and compared Lu Li's blood samples, but found that he was not far from Fu Yanda.It's just that although Lu Li's blood sample was not infected by the zombie virus, when it was used as a transformation dish for B-92, it was not as stable as Fu Yan's.
This was an unexpected situation, Liu Ruosong did not expect that, he secretly extracted Lu Li's blood sample and tissue fluid, and carried out B-92 culture, and found that the success rate of its transformation was only about 40.00%.
Liu Ruosong speculates that this may be because the "Eden One" used by Fu Yan and Lu Li is not from the same batch, but there are subtle differences between them.
However, this was no different to Liu Ruosong. He concealed Lu Li's special nature, filled in his blood samples with other artificial substances in the filing, and then "by accident" took out the first batch of delayed infection sex potion.
This batch of reagents has achieved certain results. Simultaneous treatment with blood transfusion and medicine can extend the mutation period of the infected person to more than one month.
On the day when the trial drug was announced to be successful, the medical professor who was originally in charge of the laboratory building officially abdicated and handed over the authority of the laboratory building to Liu Ruosong.
"Blue comes out of blue and is better than blue." The old professor's withered fingers tightly clenched Liu Ruosong's hand, as if holding the hope of the entire human race: "You are stronger than us old things, you did it What we can't do, you are the hope of the future of mankind."
Liu Ruosong smiled faintly, only nodded, but did not speak.
He knew in his heart that he couldn't bear such a glorious name - the actual creator of the delay potion was Shao Xuefan in his previous life, not himself.
The old professor seemed to see his disengaged attitude, so he didn't say anything, but pulled him away from the military area for the last time.
There is a sentry post outside the resettlement area, and the dangerous area beyond. The old professor dragged Liu Ruosong to stand in the open-air dump car and circled around the resettlement area.
In the resettlement area, the daughter who lost her father and the boy who lost her grandmother hugged each other, and was surrounded by a strange woman who patted her back gently.
"Society was shut down, families were broken up, and many people lost their loved ones." The old professor said: "Less than [-]% of complete families can successfully come to the resettlement area, and most people lost their most precious things in the disaster."
It was the afternoon at this time, and most of the rest in the resettlement area were young children and elderly people. Most of the adults had already gone out to work, and those who were able-bodied could go out with the formation to carry out patrol missions. Some who were unwilling to go out, They will go to work in private plots in the military region, planting and cultivating unpolluted vegetables and food.
No one knows how long this disaster will last, so no one dares to be lazy at this time-if the future is always in darkness, every choice they make now will affect their future survival.
The children who couldn't work in the resettlement area were gathered together and led by several adult women in the open space in the center of the resettlement area.Although they don't have to work, Liu Ruosong can still tell that these children don't know anything.
Their eyes are shrunk and vigilant, and any noise they make will startle them. They are like exhausted mice being chased by a cat, tired and nervous, like a living frightened bird.
Liu Ruosong looked away from them, feeling powerless in his heart.
The state of these children is no stranger to him, even familiar - once upon a time, he was also one of the frightened birds.
The only difference between Liu Ruosong and them is that he has been pushed to the limit, so he has nothing to fear.
"I don't mean anything else, I just want you to take a look at them." The old professor said.
"I understand." Liu Ruosong said, "It is our duty to save mankind."
"That's not the case." The old professor said, "Son, you are wrong."
Liu Ruosong looked at him suspiciously, and the old professor shook his head, motioning him to look at the experimental field in the distance.
"The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, that's right. If we have the ability, we should do more." The old professor said: "But child, you have to know that saving all mankind is by no means the responsibility of one person. "
Liu Ruosong's thoughts moved slightly.
"It is not only the person who made the potion is the savior, but all the people who sacrificed for it in the disaster are the sparks that save the world." The old professor said: "It is the responsibility and obligation of human beings to save human beings. Maybe it can be done by one person. There are always people in the world doing work that we can't worry about, so we just have to do our best to do what we have to do and make our own fire bigger."
"What if..." Liu Ruosong said: "Fate must place the responsibility on one person?"
"That's up to you, kid." The old professor said, "I brought you here to show you, not to tell you how poor they are, how much they need you to save, how much you need to take responsibility, and then This is to encourage you to sacrifice yourself and go forward.”
Liu Ruosong was silent for a moment, to be honest, he really thought so.
He has always admired these old professors, because they have lofty ideals and the spirit of self-sacrifice, and are even willing to sacrifice their lives for this world full of pain and parting.
But Liu Ruosong knew that he could not be so noble by himself.
He has never been such a person who is willing to sacrifice his ego for the sake of the big ego, so from the very beginning, he did not match his academic and professional style. There is a corner reserved for all beings.
"I just want you to see that you are one of these people," said the old professor.
Liu Ruosong was stunned.
"You are no different from them, you are a victim of this era." The old professor said: "It is not their responsibility to save the world, and certainly not yours."
"This doesn't seem right." Liu Ruosong smiled and said, "Why do you feel like you are encouraging me to retire?"
"No." The old professor also smiled and said, "I just want to tell you, don't treat everything as a shackle, and don't take unnecessary responsibilities. All the efforts you are making now are not because of 'what do you want? ', but because you want the world to end up as you want it to be."
"All the efforts you have made are for yourself." The old professor paused and said, "There are also people you care about."
The old professor is old and wise, he doesn't know Liu Ruosong, he doesn't know how painful Liu Ruosong has experienced in the past, but he still uses his own experience and wisdom to break open the biggest abscess for Liu Ruosong.
These words hit Liu Ruosong's most secret and softest point in his heart to a certain extent. He lowered his head and thought about the old professor's words seriously, and he actually felt a lot more relaxed in his heart.
He once felt resentment, for this world, and for this inescapable fate—he even once thought about why he and Fu Yan had to bear such a heavy responsibility and pay for the deepest malice in the world.
But the old professor convinced him more or less. After all, what he said was right. If he and Fu Yan hadn't wanted a stable and happy "future", they would have given up long ago.
"...You are right." Liu Ruosong said: "If people pay for their own decisions, then there is no need to regret it."
After returning from the settlement, the old professor officially left the laboratory building and went to the medical department instead.
Liu Ruosong took over the laboratory building and became the undisputed main researcher of the laboratory building.
The team that Zhao Jincheng sent to rescue Shao Qiu returned without success, but fortunately, there was a new process of investigating the people in the private nursing home.
After the end of the world, many materials are no longer verifiable, but Liu Ruosong still found some clues from the major medical databases in Yancheng.
He searched the major hospitals in Yancheng for cases of immune system collapse and large-scale infection deaths, and then excluded cases caused by AIDS, severe burns and other medical reasons, and compiled a "death list."
Fu Yan helped him conduct a follow-up investigation on this list, and found that 80.00% of them had undergone high-end personal medical examinations in private nursing homes.
Their death incubation period varies from long to short. According to the verifiable list, the fastest patient died of disease within one week after the physical examination, and the slowest one took three months.
Liu Ruosong didn't know why this abnormal acute immune system collapse didn't attract attention, but the only thing he knew was that their previous guess was completely correct, Eden One had entered the crowd on a large scale in this way, but they didn't know it .
After confirming this point, Liu Ruosong went to Zhao Jincheng with the investigation report. He hoped to use the method of reverse tracing to screen out the "fish that slipped through the net" similar to Lu Li from those who had participated in relevant medical examinations.
If more samples can be found, his research will have more possibilities, and once the number increases, it will be a good thing for Fu Yan, Lu Li, and even every special personnel.
At least they don't have to worry about being an isolated case, and then being forced to spend their lives in the laboratory for the "future of mankind".
