Chapter 66 Tables, Recorders and Light Sticks

The little prince cried like a coward on the phone, but the facts proved that the person who can take the lead at a young age is by no means a fool who only knows how to use emotions.

Through Anton asking MAX to repair the little prince, he guessed that there was something wrong with Qinguan, and he had contacted the messenger group on the way.Here, pick up Anton and Qinguan from the subway station, turn the steering wheel and go straight to the small valley in the suburbs of Beijing.

"Professor Tan and the medical expert team are already on their way to the nursing home. I'll ask 807 to find [-] to apply to Jiang Yi and the others to use the remaining ER[-] for emergencies. The operating room and repair room are also ready." The little prince looked at Qin Guan's expression in the mirror, "You give him some more medicine."

The Grand Cherokee was speeding along the mountain path, and the little prince's cell phone kept ringing, and calls kept coming in, and he also had many calls to make.

Fifteen, Tan Wuyin, Twenty-four, Fatty, Yang Xiaofeng, girl.Everyone is contacting him, everyone is anxious, and everyone wants to talk to Anton.

The little prince stopped them all, and scolded whomever they caught: "It's not bad for a while, brother Dong needs to rest, understand! You idiot... what the fuck, I'll just scold you... Commander is amazing... get out!"

And the person who needs "rest" in his mouth is sitting in the co-pilot smoking cigarettes and drinking Coke.

When the little prince hung up the phone, Anton said, "Take it easy, Shiwu should be careful, and watch out for him to deal with you in the future."

"He doesn't have the energy now." The little prince waved his head to signal Anton to give him a cigarette, and kept his eyes on the road conditions. That posture is sure that Cheng Fengyang has tricked you. The fat man said that today's Shiwu is like a bulldog who forgot to vaccinate, I think it's quite vivid."

Anton smiled, "Bulldog, does he not like pretending to be as much as before?"

The little prince: "Pretend, can he not pretend? And now it's very easy to jump up, especially when you mention you, it's like a monkey jumping into the sky. I wonder if he doesn't need to sleep, staring at Cheng Fengyang 24 hours a day At the slightest movement, he led people over like a mad dog, making Cheng Fengyang unstoppable for a year. Just last month, I entrusted a particularly respectable old chief as an intermediary to try to negotiate with Fifteen Talk, and in the end, Fifteen almost drove the old chief out of his brain."

Anton said: "Cheng Fengyang's way is very wild."

But this sentence is not a compliment of Fengyang, but a compliment of fifteen.A big guy with such a savage attitude has been beaten by Fifteen, which only means that Fifteen is more ruthless.

Of course the little prince understood Anton's subtext, and couldn't help laughing, "You two are truly cousins. It's a good thing you didn't have sex with him. If this makes you both cheap, don't bother anyone."

At this time, another call from the medical team came in, and the little prince hurriedly reported Qin Guan's situation to them.

Anton leaned on the headrest and slowly exhaled a smoke ring.

The scene outside the car window was similar to that before he entered the distorted space, the same bleak winter, so he didn't have a strong sense of time dislocation.But looking at the mobile phone on the center console, the date on the screen reminded him that more than 300 days of his life were indeed lost.

Is it worth it?

He suddenly remembered what Cheng Fengyang asked him before leaving.

Of course worth it.An Dong turned his head to look at Qin Guan, who was still pale in the back seat. If he didn't go, the sand sculpture youth with the second-class illness would be entangled in a cocoon of mist, and then turned into a suspended light ball.

So this is the origin of ancient myths and legends, right?Some people turned into stars after death, maybe it was an ancient person who accidentally entered the distorted space and recorded it after seeing this scene.

On the second half of the journey, Anton ate a lot of spicy noodles and crispy noodles.He found almost all the snacks in the little prince's car, and he wanted to eat everything, and he was very hungry.

As soon as he got out of the car, Tan Wuyuan smelled it out, "You're eating junk food again!"

The middle-aged Auntie Mei was very angry, and she was very serious when she drew his blood.

Anton reminded her: "Isn't this usually drawn by nurses?"

Tan Wuyin pulled out the needle that had been stuck in with a rub, "It seems that I didn't stick it right just now, try it again."

All the nurses in the room turned green.Professor Tan, Anton's blood is bleeding out!Can we have some snacks if we lie?

However, the second blow that should have been suffered was still endured.

Anton pressed the cotton ball to watch Tan Wuyin drop his blood into the test tube with his own hands, and then watched the reagent turn from transparent to green, greener, and finally green like a fluorescent stick.

Tan Wuyin looked at Anton in shock, "Why aren't you affected by radiation at all?"

Anton: "Isn't that good?"

Tan Wuyin shouted excitedly, "Okay! It's great! I'm going to draw another tube of your blood. I need to do some experiments. I have to call the expert team. No, the expert team is doing it for another person. examine."

Anton said calmly: "You can draw as much blood as you want, but I have a request, this time let the nurse sister come."

Tan Wuyin smiled awkwardly.This moment, especially like E.

Just when Anton was lamenting how powerful genes are, another representative of Tan's genes appeared.

Fifteen greeted his mother first, then sat across from Anton, and after everyone in the room had gone out, he asked calmly, "I already know the test results, how do you feel now?"

Anton didn't like to see him dead, didn't he mean he had become a bulldog?

"Miss me?"

Fifteen said lightly, "It's okay."

Anton: "You can die if you don't pretend to be a fork?"

Fifteen returned the original words to him, but put the accent on the first word, "You can die if you don't pretend to be a fork?"

Anton looked embarrassed, "I didn't die even if I pretended."

Fifteen raised his eyebrows: "I've had a pretty good life since I was a kid."

Anton: "Ha! Finally admit to pretending to be a fork?"

Fifteen's eyebrows forcibly returned, "Qin Guan needed to stay for a few days for treatment, but he was not in any danger, and he was not substantially injured. Now, I need you to hand over your equipment."

Anton said no, "I promise to return Cheng Fengyang's recorder to him."

Fifteen: "It's okay, I can give him a copy, plus a pennant and a bonus of 500 yuan."

Anton felt that he had misunderstood Fifteen all along.This guy is not only pretending to be a criminal, but also shameless!

For the next two days, Anton stayed in the Little Valley Nursing Home.

Although he has turned green into a fluorescent stick, Tan Wuyin is still worried.So, for the first time in our life, Dong Ge experienced what is meant by "your cousin thinks you are cold" and "your cousin thinks you are hungry".

Every day, the sentinels of the Messenger Corps stationed in the nursing home can see a scene - Anton is wandering around in the yard, smoking, walking and wandering, and Professor Tan rushes to him with a thick down jacket in his arms.Or, after Anton finished three bowls of rice and a pot of braised beef, Professor Tan brought him a large plate of fruit and a whole row of yogurt with a smile, and stared at him to finish eating.

If it wasn't for Tan Wuyin who only drew an extra tube of his blood on the first day, but didn't ask him to participate in any experiments after that, Anton would have thought that he was raised by his cousin as a guinea pig.

"Aren't you going to experiment with me?" Anton asked.

Tan Wuyin was reading the report, so he took off his glasses when he heard the words, "I already have your blood sample."

Anton said: "But other scientists will not let me go so easily when they meet me."

Tan Wuyin thought for a while, "Are you talking about my genetic father?"

Anton raised his eyebrows.

Tan Wuyin tilted his head slightly, "I know what the medical profession over there has done, but I don't think we are qualified to judge their right or wrong from our standpoint, because we have not encountered their crisis. But as As a scientific researcher, I have always believed in a principle, when we sprint to the frontier of science, we must pay attention to whether we step on the edge of ethics."

Anton decided to like this cousin, even though she was keen to wrap him into a ball.

When Qin Guan's reagent also turned green, passers-by were finally allowed to visit.

The scene where good brothers meet is naturally lively.Except for Anton and Qin Guan, for the others, apart from the time gap, it was more the excitement of "resurrecting from the dead".

In nearly a year, the fat man has lost a lot of weight, and it is said that he has become a responsible team leader, second only to Brother Feng in passing.

Yang Xiaofeng's already sharp face became more serious, and there were two deep wrinkles between his brows, which were only relaxed after seeing that Anton was safe and sound.

As soon as the girl entered the ward, she threw herself on Qin Guan and cried loudly, then threw herself on Anton and gave him a big hug without wiping her face.

Wei Tao said: "Our girl is now ranked third in the list of individual assassins in the circle. This year, whether it is chasing Cheng Fengyang or attacking Tianyinghui over there, it is the first choice of foreign aid for the messenger group."

Anton picked up the girl, "Who are the ones in front of you? Kill them tomorrow and give you the first place."

The girl giggled and kicked her feet, "Put me down quickly! I'll bring you something delicious."

With the experience of Anton's hospitalization last time, everyone knows that Xiaogu's food can fade away from the birds, so Yatou and Wei Tao made a lot of delicious dishes at home and brought them over to satisfy their cravings.

For a while, a table was set up in the ward.

Maocai, spicy chicken, stinky mandarin fish, bandit pork liver and so on.The dishes are all good, but the taste... people who eat it are not bad, if they just smell it, they think there are some biological weapons hidden in the house.

The venue is limited, and everyone doesn't stick to standing or sitting, but just gather around to eat, drink and talk about the mountains.But mainly the little prince said, An Dong and Qin Guan listened, because they really had nothing to say.

Anton can still describe what the twisted space looks like, but Qin Guan's eyes have been smeared since he entered, and he didn't see anything.

"Then how did you see me?" Anton couldn't help being curious.

Qin Guan only confirmed his recovery today, and had no chance to chat with Anton before, "I don't know how I saw you. It was dark in front of me, but suddenly you appeared like a light stick, so I shouted and shouted Ah, but the voice couldn’t get out, as if it was stuck in my mouth, I was so anxious. Then I saw that you were going to run away, and I thought, oh no, I’m afraid I’m dead already? Really? , At that time, I had already given up, and I just thought, Brother Dong, I’m here, why are you running around. Then you suddenly stopped and looked in my direction, and I waved fiercely.”

The second half is exactly the same as what Anton saw and heard, but the description of the "light stick"...

"Am I bright in warped space?"

Qin Guan nodded sharply, "It's really like a light stick."

Anton asked: "Then did you see anything else? For example, something like a cocoon surrounded by fog?"

"No."

Anton asked: "Then what happened afterwards? After I picked you up, did you see anything? Also, do you know that we almost couldn't get out when we came back?"

Qin Guan asked three questions and didn't know.He just remembered that Anton picked him up, and then he passed out.

At this time, Shiwu knocked on the half-closed door, "Instead of asking him, why don't you come over and watch the video in the recorder, maybe it can solve your doubts better." After that, his nose moved slightly, "Are you eating shit? ?”

Anton picked up half a stinky mandarin fish and threw it on his head.

10 minutes later, in the meeting room.

The short video in the recorder has been played three times, but the picture is pitch black, the whole process is filled with the sound of electric currents, and there is only a flash of light at the end, and then the picture changes to the subway platform.

All the passers-by watched it with the messengers in the conference room, and everyone looked at each other in blank dismay after reading it.

"What is this?"

"machine malfunction?"

"Is the recording failed due to the influence of the magnetic field in the space?"

Fifteen signaled everyone to be safe and calm, "We have separated the image and audio, now let's listen to the analyzed recording first."

"Help!"

"I want to go home!"

"mom!"

"Help me, who will save me!"

The howling ghosts and wolves that once rushed into Anton's brain in the distorted space reappeared in the conference room. Everyone frowned, and even had to cover their ears with little concentration.But it's not because the volume is harsh, but that kind of desperate voice can penetrate people's hearts, instantly breaking the listener's emotions and empathizing with them.

Fifteen played the only bright light in the video after it was disassembled and processed.

Anton doesn't know how many times the slow motion is, but it can be seen that in the light of less than a second, there are many scenes passing by. Although the definition is very low, it can be distinguished that each scene is different .

That person was not photographed.

For some reason, Anton secretly breathed a sigh of relief.Looking up, he saw that Shiwu was looking at him, so Anton lit a cigarette, "What's wrong?"

Fifteen asked: "What did you see when you faced this light?"

"I didn't see anything."

Fifteen asked again: "Do you know how long you have stayed in the distorted space?"

"do not know."

Fifteen took out the strangely shaped watch, "Four minutes and nine seconds."

Anton: "That's right. Cheng Fengyang said that the longest time spent before was 56 seconds."

Fifteen stared at him for a while, "The indicators of you and Qin Guan have returned to normal, and you can leave today. Besides, Jiang Su wants to see you, do you want to go?"

Anton made a grimace, "Let's talk about it after I think about it."

Fifteen nodded, "Okay. But in the future, when you go to other spaces, you will be accompanied by messengers. This is a rigid rule, and bargaining is not allowed."

Anton shrugged indifferently, "Okay, free bodyguards are not for nothing."

When Anton and the passers-by left, only Fifteen and the members of the messenger group remained in the conference room.

Twenty-four proposed to send someone to watch Anton secretly here, but Fifteen refused, "He will definitely go to see Cheng Fengyang, and when he wants to get rid of others, no one can keep an eye on him."

Fifteen's words were a little flattering, but now the people in the messenger group are quite convinced of Anton, not only because of his ability, but also because he risked his life to save his brother this time.

Chu Ba offered to serve as Anton's entourage when he went to its space in the future, and two other adjutants with outstanding abilities also recommended themselves.

Fifteen agreed.

Seeing this situation, Niansi couldn't help but sigh in his heart: After all, it's the Jiang family, and Anton now has quite the demeanor of his father back then.Alas~~ If only he was willing to join the messenger group.

When the meeting was over, Chu Ba said: "Commander, why do you have a... that smell on your head?"

Fifteen walked away with a dark face.

The author has something to say:

I wonder if you have noticed that one of the news in the past few days is about gene-edited newborns?

In this chapter, through the mouth of Tan Wucai, I express my point of view: when we sprint to the frontier of science, we must pay attention to our feet and whether we step on the edge of ethics.

In fact, part of this book is that after reading the relevant information on gene editing, I had some ideas and brain holes.

I was surprised to see the news, so I said a little more in the text today, please forgive me.
