16 years

"I am very happy today."

When going down the mountain, Liu Ruosong held Fu Yan's hand, with a smile still on the corners of his eyes and brows.

"I'm going to record this day." Liu Ruosong pointed at his temple with a smile, and joked, "The title is "Remember a Successful Date."

"It sounds like an elementary school student's composition." Fu Yan commented honestly.

"Love makes people less intelligent." Liu Ruosong said, "This shows that you treat me very well, and you can be on the list of standard boyfriends."

Fu Yan didn't understand the criteria for judging the "Standard Boyfriend List". After thinking about it, he thought it might be based on Liu Ruosong's subjective preferences.

The journey down the mountain was not far away, Fu Yan and Liu Ruosong walked through a small path on the side of the moss cultivation area, ready to go back and check Fang Sining's file decoding progress.

In order not to make Fang Sining suspicious, Fu Yan didn't mention Liu Ruosong helping him with the work, but only planned to show Liu Ruosong the files after Fang Sining finished the documents.If there is any problem, it is better to find out.

But Liu Ruosong observed Fang Sining intentionally or unintentionally several times in the past few days, and always felt that his resistance to the team was not as strong as before.

"Leaving aside the personal affair of the deputy team, Fang Sining's self-choice is correct, he is very talented in this field." Liu Ruosong said: "He occasionally chats with me these days, and we talked about it unintentionally. Shao Xuefan's research project... He is very thoughtful, and it can be heard that he knows very well about Shao Xuefan's affairs. Judging from his ability to decode the files alone, if he is given a team, he should be able to do independent research. "

"Such a high evaluation?" Fu Yan said.

"Shao Xuefan is serious about cultivating him." Liu Ruosong said: "To put it inappropriately, Professor Yang's main business is not a virus specialist after all. If she really put together a virus structure, she might not be as good as Fang Sining. .”

"No. [-] told me." Fu Yan said, "He also wants to use Fang Sining, but after that it depends on his personal wishes."

"With the deputy team here, he can agree no matter what." Liu Ruosong said: "Although saying this kind of thing is a bit like coercing the emperor to impress the princes, but—"

Before he finished speaking, he saw a person walking across the small square, Liu Ruosong swallowed his words for now, and let go of Fu Yan's hand.

He Tang didn't wear a heavy training jacket today, but only a camouflage T-shirt with the hem tucked into his belt. It looked like he was coming from the dormitory.

"Actually, there's no need to hide." He Tang winked at Liu Ruosong and said with a smile, "Happy date."

Liu Ruosong: "..."

"Don't look at me with that expression, Brother Liu." He Tang said: "It's been two hours since the two of you disappeared, and you've been laughing so hard, you're not going on a date, could it be that you're running away with a load? "

Liu Ruosong sighed helplessly, decided not to discuss relationship issues with the single little girl film, took the conversation away lightly, and threw the question back.

"What are you looking for Brother Fu for?" Liu Ruosong said, "Is there something urgent?"

"It's not urgent." He Tang said seriously: "Actually, Researcher Fang has something to do... He wants to go to the moss base and extract some data from it. This matter was reported to the deputy team, but the deputy team said it's better Ask the captain."

"What data does he want?" Fu Yan asked.

"He wants to test whether the virus cultivated by Shao Xuefan can directly affect zombies." He Tang shrugged and said, "I also want to test whether it can be directly applied to humans."

"Human?" Liu Ruosong frowned, his voice was slightly cold: "Where can someone give him a try."

"He said he was going to take some of his own blood for a test to see if the virus would grow or not be able to integrate with the blood in an active state." He Tang waved his hand casually and said, "I didn't listen too carefully, anyway, I'm just taking some blood That’s all, it’s better to smoke his own, it shouldn’t be a big problem.”

But Liu Ruosong still had a disapproving expression on his face.

Because there is no research sample, Shao Xuefan's research has always remained at the theoretical level, not to mention living body samples are very important, and it is not easy to try without harming the human body. Fang Sining's move is not in line with professional procedures, Liu Ruosong instinctively resisted .

But he also knows in his heart that today is different from the past, living by the "rules", maybe by the end of the first, second and third phases, the daylilies will be cold outside.

"What else?" Fu Yan asked.

"He still wants the data of the zombies—" He Tang clicked his tongue and complained in a low voice: "It's really troublesome, he still wants to live, and he said he can't die. I thought that zombies are no different from dead , he said he could move, which is more or less the same.”

"Understood." Fu Yan said, "Does he want the action team to catch one for him?"

He Tang nodded.

Fu Yan thought for a while, but did not make a hasty decision.

For the action team, although it is risky to catch a living zombie, it is not difficult to do. It doesn't even need to dispatch too many people. He and He Feng can bring He Tang together, and it will take half an hour. Call back and forth.

But he had to be cautious about things involving viruses, so Fu Yan thought about it and asked Liu Ruosong for his opinion.

"What does the consultant think?" Fu Yan asked.

Liu Ruosong reacted for a while before realizing that he was calling himself. He pondered for a while, then shook his head hesitantly.

"I suggest that one more thing is worse than one less thing." Liu Ruosong seriously explained: "Shao Xuefan said before that this virus needs to be transformed in a petri dish before it can be used. So when Shao Xuefan was conducting research, he didn't have any available for use at all. Zombie samples, it is impossible to have relevant experimental content in that document. Fang Sining's request now is at most to verify the conjecture left by Shao Xuefan - but there is no rush for this matter, they have the B-92 in their hands It is not impossible to verify the virus chain after returning to the base."

"What about the other one?" Fu Yan asked.

Liu Ruosong didn't speak for a while, pursing her lips and meditating.

Fu Yan and He Tang didn't disturb him, they just waited for him to make his own decision.

Liu Ruosong actually didn't agree with it at first, but he suddenly thought of that man in Lin Cheng who was infected after eating fresh plants. B-92 is a modified virus, which is essentially a mutated version of the strain that has not been transformed. Whether this kind of thing can affect the human body when it grows in plants, whether the impact is positive or negative, is an undeterminable problem.

"I can't decide on the other one." Liu Ruosong shook his head and said honestly, "I don't know if fresh plants will affect the virus. To be honest, I'm not specialized in this."

"Then let him try it." Fu Yan said: "But keep the file."

He Tang nodded, and rushed into the laboratory building to "deliver the decree". About ten minutes later, He Tang opened the window from upstairs, and yelled at Fu Yan downstairs, saying that he was going to experiment base.

Shao Xuefan obviously invested heavily in the moss breeding base. The outside is made of steel glass and metal folding plates, and the inside is also divided into small areas. In addition to a large moss natural garden, there is actually a supporting small laboratory.

Although Fu Yan didn't say to gather, the action team followed tacitly. Even Shao Qiu, who had been fighting with Fang Sining in cold war, was among them, but he stood far away.

Fang Sining wore a research uniform, first got into the cultivation area, and when he came back after ten minutes, he was holding a handful of moss bottoms with soil in his hand.

He first drew his own blood and compared it for a while in a metal machine taller than a person, and then he processed the fresh samples he had collected and put them in.

No one in the action team had any understanding of this process. Watching him go around the room was like watching a fine spinning top.

He Tang didn't sleep well last night, so he yawned lazily.He Feng glanced at her, then moved towards her without any trace, and took half of her weight away.

Fang Sining worked for more than two hours, and when he straightened up from the microscope, He Tang had already fallen asleep leaning on He Feng's shoulder.

"No." Fang Sining's eyes leaked a bit of regret: "Sure enough, viruses that have not been transformed cannot directly react with the human body."

"I have a question." Liu Ruosong said suddenly: "Professor Shao's research is on regenerative viruses, which should be aimed at mutated zombies. How could they react to unmutated people? The logic of your conjecture is verified." Not fluent."

Fang Sining shook his head and said, "The virus that infects the human body outside is a transformed product, and what my teacher cultivated is also an improved version of the original strain. In terms of grade, the transformed version of B-92 and R-01 are the same. .So I was thinking, if the human body can hold a portion of B-92, it might be possible to prevent infection from a genetic point of view...but unfortunately not."

"One more thing." Liu Ruosong said: "Since Professor Shao knew about the existence of such a virus, why has he not researched preventive measures for all these years, but researched solutions? Isn't this putting the cart before the horse?"

"I don't know either." Fang Sining shook his head and said, "For so many years, the teacher hasn't talked to us about the truth of this matter."

"Mind if I take a look?" Liu Ruosong said.

"I don't mind." Fang Sining made way to the side.

Liu Ruosong walked to the position where Fang Sining was operating just now, and opened the data to look at it.

Shao Xuefan's equipment is obviously much better than the school's. As long as the preset values ​​are set, the results can be detected quickly.

Liu Ruosong glanced at the above data and found that Fang Sining was indeed not lying.

He thanked him, and was about to return the seat to Fang Sining, but it happened that Fang Sining reached out to take the small petri dish that was placed on the table before, Liu Ruosong subconsciously wanted to avoid his hand, and bumped into the detection instrument shelf.

Fang Sining's blood sample shook for a moment, and Liu Ruosong subconsciously reached out to support the test tube. The moment the cuff was exposed to the detection port, the metal machine suddenly issued a sharp reminder.

Fang Sining was taken aback for a moment, rushed over to look at the newly refreshed data report, and found that a matching genetic working group was clearly detected on it.

Liu Ruosong obviously also saw this result, he frowned, subconsciously withdrew his hand and looked around, and finally found a dry and brown blood stain on the corner of the cuff.

"Is this your blood?" Fang Sining asked.

"No." Liu Ruosong himself didn't notice when the place was dirty during the turmoil along the way, he frowned and looked at the cuffs for a while, racked his brains to recall but couldn't remember it, so he shook his head and said : "It may be the zombie blood that was stained before, and I didn't wash it off."
