Chapter 136 The first person to eat crabs
Liel spent almost every minute and every second building a new accessory heart based on lizard serum.
We still don’t know what the difference in time flow rate between the two worlds will be like, so he has to hurry up and get this thing figured out.
In general, its structure is quite simple, and it can basically only be regarded as a minor modification on the original prosthetic body.
Although the technology of 2011 does not have many bioplastic options, if done well, it is possible to hide these small parts that can cause a huge immune response into the accessory heart.
Design is a complicated process, but the real trouble is how to implement the transformation:
The prosthetic body is directly in the body, so of course the transformation must also be carried out in the body - but who will perform the surgery?
Liel thought of a way: perform surgery on himself.
He will not lose consciousness and reason due to the pain caused by the operation, which is a very advantageous condition.
Secondly, he is equipped with a rather advanced spinal prosthesis, which if handled well can control almost every nerve in the body.
Preset some programs and then make a behavioral chip to perform the surgery in a semi-automatic way - this was the only way he could think of.
But in this case, he would have to transfer the prosthetic doctor gloves from the cyberpunk world——
Get rid of those replaceable tools and extensions to ensure functionality. Below, the total weight of the gloves is 500g, thanks to Lear's original choice of gloves instead of replacing the entire arm.
Despite this, there are still not enough technology points available.
So Lille spent a lot of time supplementing his knowledge of genetic engineering, and spent a whole day working in Connors' laboratory to create a second genetically modified iguana.
[Basic theoretical knowledge has been mastered: molecular biology (Professor Connors)]
[Reward technology points: 100]
[Practical engineering technology has been mastered: cross-species genetic modification (Connors) Professor Si)]
[Reward technology points: 100]
[Complete cross-species genetic modification for the first time]
[Reward Science and Technology Points: 200]
[Current Science and Technology Points: 620]
Throughout the whole day, Hammond, Peter, and Professor Connors just looked at it bit by bit. I went from being an introductory student in this field to becoming an expert.
Not just an expert, Lille smoothly completed the synthesis of the medicine and injected it into the iguana without anyone's assistance.
Connors did not provide any guidance to Lear in engineering, but Lear learned quickly and did it quite standardly.
The second iguana ate its first meal after its genetic modification. Hammond said blankly: "Uh, boss, I should call you boss now.
Are you really a high school dropout? "
Of course not - Lille said in his heart that strictly speaking, his highest degree of education is higher than everyone here.
However, it is difficult to compare war years and peace times.
Liel spread his hands: "Of course - you have to admit that there are geniuses in this world. We can use this iguana for publicity, or as an additional observation sample."
"Okay." Hammond said bitterly, "Fortunately, I didn't choose to further my studies back then. It would be useless to study anyway. It's all natural."
"That's it." I took off my gloves and said, "Let me report the situation."
Hammond was the first to report: "We have found sellers for the experimental equipment. Now it is easier to get the purchase license for these equipment, thanks to Kang Professor Nas's signature.
But the transportation will take a few days. We can discuss with the engineering team about the expansion of the zoo and the laboratory.
I have some candidates, but the boss said there are none. Other arrangements.”
Leal nodded and signaled the next one.
Professor Connors gave his second report, looking a little sad.
"The experiment has been reported to the school, and there is no problem with the ethics review. The key is that I can't find volunteers."
As expected.
Donating blood is a minority, let alone donating bone marrow.
As for organ donation, that stuff is harder to get than bone marrow.
Let the hospital or donor give up the chance to save the patient and send precious organs to the laboratory for research?
They don't have such a big face - if time goes by, some people may be willing, but not now.
“It doesn’t matter, I found it.”
Lille took out several signed voluntary donation agreements——
"You may know that I have some appeal in Hell's Kitchen. I asked my people to talk about this in the community, and there were a total of 6 donors."
At this time, the benefits of being a good person are reflected. .
Rich people can use money to recruit people, but most of these people choose to do these things out of helplessness.
And if you make people's lives better, then you don't have to worry about finding volunteers.
If nothing else, Skye, John, Anthony, and their families are willing to be volunteers - but there may be other problems with using Skye's bone marrow for experiments.
Connors's eyes showed surprise, and so did Hammond - in his mind, his evaluation of Lille had once again improved.
This boss has a structure.
The idea of solving problems with money is simple and crude, but it is somewhat naked.
As a dreamer who has been in poverty for a long time, Hammond is more interested in Lille's way of finding volunteers.
In his eyes, using money to drive people to do things is no less than using money to get a woman. It’s not that he looks down on this kind of behavior, it’s just that he prefers to rely on his own people to attract women.
Although he's not very good at it.
Lille continued: "As for the construction team, workers have been unemployed on a large scale recently, and Hell's Kitchen is the hardest hit area. After the accident at United Construction Company, they laid off a group of people. We can recruit from these people. Workers.
As for qualified contractors, as long as you post a message in the newspaper, a large number of companies on the verge of bankruptcy will come to you. You don’t need me to teach you this, right? "
"So. We find a contractor and ask them to recruit temporary workers from the unemployed workers in Hell's Kitchen?
Interesting idea, boss, you should form a union yourself. "
Liel laid out another document and pointed to a line on it: Hell's Kitchen Workers Mutual Aid Association.
"Actually, it is already being done. I am cooperating with the NYPD. , several unemployed electricians were hired, and now a few construction workers can be added to register such a union.
The ctOS system will statistically select workers who meet our requirements, and you can conduct further interviews.
Then I need you to communicate with the president of this mutual aid association. He is a newbie, but I think he has some potential. ”
The president of this union is Anthony who loves to speak very much.
Hammond nodded again to show his admiration.
“Boss, if you don’t do research and focus on running the company, you will be a very good CEO.”
Liel smiled: “Then are there any questions?”
Connors and Hammond looked at each other and shook their heads.
There is almost no doubt or confusion in the general direction. Working in this kind of team makes people feel at ease and very motivated. They just want to get into the next stage of work immediately.
"If there's no problem, let's break up the meeting. Professor Connors, Peter, let's take a sample of the new experimental subject."
But Peter raised his hand: "Uh, sir, this will take some time. "Is it a long time?"
Liel thought for a while and said: "It's four o'clock now, it can be finished before five-thirty, and it won't be more than six o'clock at the latest. Do you have any arrangements?"
< br>“I’m going to a prom—you know, graduation season, so many events.”
"Then let's hurry up -" Lear stood up from his seat and put on gloves and masks again. "We can't miss the graduation season activities. Professor, we won't rest."
Kang Professor Nass also smiled: "For those who don't know, I thought you were going to participate in the event - have you considered returning to campus?"
Liel shrugged and started to operate the machine: "I'm already on campus Inside, like-minded friends are studying meaningful things together. Is there any better campus life than this?
Peter - turn on the electron microscope. ”
Liel. Remove the sample and put the thing into the electron microscope.
Peter looked at Lille who was concentrating, and he felt envious in his heart -
He was still too young, and did not have that much knowledge reserve to support his participation in research, so he could only do odd jobs.
It would be nice if we could do more.
"Sir, how are you so perfect?"
Liel looked at the electron microscope and was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Peter strangely: "Perfect?"
Peter also noticed that his choice of words was strange and said immediately: "No, no, I mean, you always look energetic and energetic."
Professor Connors believes that The setback was regarded as a milestone by Lille;
Problems encountered in purchasing experimental subjects To solve the problem, Lille directly deceived the opponent and his territory;
Even though his life was short, Lille did not show even once that he was anxious or rude——
On the other hand, I seem to be anxious and worried all the time, and will fall into a depression within a few minutes.
But in the final analysis, if you have to compare, his things seem to be nothing compared to Lille!
Lille patted Peter: "You are still young, so you prefer to focus on what you don't have yet.
But look around you, don't you already have what many people dream of? Something? A brother from a rich family, excellent grades, and internship opportunities that no one else could ask for. There are simply too many confidences in himself."
Peter just nodded. , Uncle Ben often said these words to him.
But like all adolescent boys, he felt that he had heard it, and he only felt it to himself.
Looking at Lear who was lying on the monitor again, he said: "Sir, do you think a human experiment will speed up the development of lizard medicine?
I mean, every time we If the development is completed one second earlier, it is possible to save more people.”
< br>Lille did not raise his head again this time and just said: "Yes - but rashly ignoring ethics and morals in unclear circumstances will only lead to more serious consequences.
We will not rashly conduct human body surgery Experiment, even if you sacrifice one life for this, it is heavy.
The first person to eat a crab will be considered brave, but as scientists, we should know as much detail about the crab as possible before eating it. ”
An aspiring young man who devotes himself to experiments is an impressive thing.
But like in the cyberpunk world, hundreds of thousands are sent to the laboratory to experiment with various Technically disabled soldiers are just a statistic .
The two seem very different, but the relationship is quite subtle.
You can send people to the test bed when the experiment is extremely unsafe, and of course you can. The second person goes up and everyone follows suit
A broken moral bottom line is difficult to repair.
Peter was convinced.
But his subconscious focused more on: The first person willing to volunteer must be a hero with a spirit of sacrifice.
The first person to eat crabs is always very courageous.
