[Zhongyingmei] After inheriting the throne

Chapter 47 The Tower of Thorns

Pioneer Technology is a company, just like its name, the main content is at the forefront of high-end technology.

At present, the boss of this company is their chief scientist Aldrich Killian, and their scientific research team is currently researching the direction of solving some diseases that plague ordinary people by repairing genetic defects.

As far as the investigation data is concerned, at present, it is only a theoretically possible successful idea.However, Cinderella suspected that they had turned this idea into reality, and started the experiment.The most terrifying conjecture is that this experiment is likely to enter the stage of clinical trials.

Over the past ten years, various countries have cooperated together and finally completed the Human Genome Project, one of the three major scientific projects, at the beginning of the new century.After the realization of the "moon landing project" in the field of life sciences, various gene-based research has entered a state of rapid development, and this trendy scientific concept has also promoted the birth of many research results.

However, at least on the bright side, all countries have tacitly drawn a safe range for genetic research.Research directly targeting genes has stopped at the stage of animal experiments.

You must know that genes are a mysterious place that cannot be fully grasped.As far as the current level of technology is concerned, human operations on it are still at the read-only stage.

It is like a building with a complex structure composed of tens of thousands of tiny building blocks. If one of the pieces is taken out rashly, it is likely to cause the whole to collapse.

Humans can discover disease-causing genes, develop some special medicines for them, or make more genetic checks.But directly modifying the gene to completely cure the disease is not as simple as cutting a few sections with scissors, or using adhesives to glue them together, or inserting a certain modified version to make up for the deletion.

A small change may cause new problems that will not appear until ten years or even decades later, or even several generations later.What's more, the current technology is not up to the standard enough to continue to develop such research.

This is not a level that can be studied and mastered with the current scientific cognition of mankind.so.Those who carry out genetic experiments to the human body stage are all lunatics who opened Pandora's box.

Because of this, after Killian visited Pepper as promised, he did not get the result he wanted.

Although Pepper was an unprofessional layman in this regard, her cognition and keen perception made her realize how crazy Killian's ideas were.

This is a research direction that will not be accepted by anyone with a moral bottom line.Although his intentions were to heal and restore, Pepper saw his ambition and had a hunch that Killian might be more fanatical than it appeared.

Killian couldn't help being a little frustrated, but after walking out of the reception room, he still regained his confident posture.He firmly believes that his research is valuable, and it is a shining cross-age feat that can make him enter the palace of science.

At the prompt of Cinderella, Roman, who was always paying attention to Pepper and the actions around her, came to the company on purpose.She found a modest excuse, and entered Stark Industries' site with her badge on.

Then, under various designs, Roman coincidentally met Killian and his assistants, or bodyguards.

Her intuition told herself that these two people were not simple.

Through the smart glasses, Cinderella also transferred the information of the assistant beside him. He is a soldier, or he used to be a soldier, but he retired due to injury.Now hired by Killian as his assistant.

Cinderella, who was also thinking about this information, seemed to have captured a fragment of the past that she had ignored.Her fingers danced quickly across the keyboard.

After Killian and his assistant left Stark Industries, Roman finally let go of his tense vigilance.Of course, other people cannot see this change. After all, she has controlled every inch of her muscles very well, just like it is difficult for ordinary audiences to see that those dancers with flexible bodies and light steps danced at the moment of take-off. In an instant, the strength that the muscles erupted was beyond imagination.

Happy, who had just tipped off to Stark secretly, was once again recovering from the frustration of being sneered at and ignored repeatedly for his love to protect the other party with good intentions.He put away the tablet, turned around and saw Roman who was standing with him in the camp of the guardian of love, or he unilaterally believed that the other party was in the same camp as himself.

Roman looked at her with a serious face. Although her expression was always so cold to outsiders, Happy was used to it and didn't mind.Roman turned to look at him, and said softly, "Happy, I don't think that person is right."

Happy got excited, and immediately looked like he had found a bosom friend, and became excited, "Is there something wrong with you, too?"

Roman listened helplessly as he took the conversation in strange directions.

Roman waits for Pepper to leave work.They made an appointment to go to Fifth Avenue in the evening to buy some outfits for her.She pretended to complain, saying that the agent lady had recently spent all her time on the little models she brought with her, and she didn't even care about matching herself with a few suits that could travel.

Pepper was already used to Roman's canine character hidden under that cold appearance, and smiled to comfort her.Promise that I will accompany her for a few laps tonight.

Then, Roman quietly inquired about Killian who had just met her face to face.She deliberately asked in a tone of gossiping girlfriends, "That scientist looks really handsome."

Pepper reached out and bumped her lightly.

"Okay, I won't talk about you. Who made you single-minded, you only have Stark in your heart." Roman joked, "It's really profitable for Stark to have a girlfriend like you."

Roman took Pepper's arm calmly, and quietly took back the bug that was placed on her.

This kind of bug is not transmitted in real time, but is closer to a traditional storage device, so it has not been detected by Stark's technology.

Although there is no video recording, it is better than nothing.After Roman went back and recovered the bug, he gave it to Cinderella to restore it.

After playing the recording for several rounds, they learned why Killian came to Pepper, and also learned more about the state of the scientific research led by Killian's team.

"Although it seems like a crazy idea." Cinderella commented, "But according to the psychological profile of Killian, if he has not progressed to a certain stage of experimentation, he will never put this kind of scientific fantasy Give it out to seek investment."

So, Killian may have been involved in some illegal experimental projects.

However, since the research direction of the project is to realize the self-healing of the human body by modifying gene fragments, why does Pioneer Technology have anything to do with the witch's "lettuce"?

According to their guess, "lettuce" in fairy tales is just a delicious vegetable planted by witches.Even after the sublimation of the concept, no matter how you look at it, it seems that it has nothing to do with genes.

Cinderella did not force Roman to continue exploring the role of "lettuce" out of thin air.Although as the object of the same source, Lapezel is the one who is closest to the truth.However, if the guess is wrong because of this, and thus lead to another situation, they would rather be a little more ignorant.

"Speaking of which, since we can't start from the lettuce itself, what about the people who ate those vegetables?" Roman asked another matter.

She knew Cinderella never stopped paying attention to that batch of vegetables.These vegetables must be useful, otherwise, why did Pioneer Technology go to such lengths to acquire that company? Especially since they still seem to lack research funds.

Then, a spark of thought flashed in her mind, yes, Pioneer Technology doesn’t have any profitable projects now, and to support such a scientific research that can be called a fantasy, it needs more investment than her bright face Those that can be found.

In such an urgent need for funds, Pioneer still chose to acquire a company that seemed to have nothing to do with their research.That can only show that in terms of funds, they either chose to open source, or they chose to cut costs.

Cinderella recalled the information of the assistant who was with Killian. He was an American soldier who retired due to injury.

In Roman's description, the other party was a very skilled bodyguard with top-notch physical fitness who did not have any sequelae left by Zeng Liu in terms of actions.

In this way, maybe Killian's team has recruited volunteers who are willing to participate in the experiment, and luckily opened the door to success.

And he is now seeking further investment, which shows that the research results have not met expectations, and further investment is needed to continue to improve.

If all the people he recruits are people like this, who used to have excellent physical fitness, but in the end were seriously injured due to various misfortunes, then as long as the conditions he offers include the condition of regaining health, they will be fine. It is enough to make a group of people willing to do this kind of transaction without knowing how much it will cost.

Cinderella immediately asked Francis to call up more records about the assistant, and found out that he was indeed in contact with some people who were also retired soldiers.Of course, this connection is also normal on the surface.After all, there are dozens of mutual aid societies and related organizations for veterans in New York City alone.

She then compared the information and finally discovered the connection.One of the people who had been in contact with the aide was at the site of the previous bombing and was killed instantly.

To be more specific, he was one of the innocent bystanders whose bodies were unfortunately reduced to ashes due to being in the center of the explosion.

It seems that he may not be so innocent.Cinderella looked at the document and thought about it secretly.

After clearing her mind, she had a certain plan for what Roman needed to do.

"Your mission is here." Cinderella sent a schedule to Roman through internal channels, and then pretended to be relaxed and said, "The first attack, don't lose our face."

Roman cheered up almost immediately.She glanced at the schedule, then folded her arms and said confidently, "Of course not."

Isn't it just a few factories at night? Judging from Lapezel's force value, as long as it is not the superhuman monsters in the Avengers, or the superman-level big coffee who often rescues disasters around the world, Ordinary people would only get beaten in vain if they met her.

She also knows that this so-called infiltration has a lot of room for development, even if she accidentally exposes herself at that time, it doesn't matter.

Because Bell and Cinderella are laying hooks step by step, planning to expose the mysterious intelligence organization behind Grace Gray to the sight of some colleagues step by step.In this way, there is both lining and face, which can be regarded as a cover-up tool with a serious identity.

"So, where is my equipment, dear Miss Quartermaster?" Roman spread his hands in front of Cinderella.
