Double O swap life!

Chen Ci and Fu Tianhe carried their respective bags and took the central elevator to the research institute.

The research institute is just below the top floor, and most of the residents are families of intellectuals. Although Chen Zhi has to go to the base for physical examinations every month, it belongs to a special secret biological research institute, and has a lot to do with these low-level secrets. Big difference.

Fu Tianhe is still thinking about whether he can get some information about chimeras. This thing is a magic weapon for human beings to fight against primitive organisms. There are very few entries that can be searched on the Internet.

He still has more than a dozen mechanical cores in his hand, maybe he can make something similar, although Fu Tianhe thinks that the difficulty is not less than making a flying machine with bare hands.

Compared with other areas the two walked through, the research institute was much cleaner and tidy, and its construction style was closer to the top floor of Cinnabar.

After all, before the invention of the gel layer that can block strong ultraviolet rays, the top of the baked beacon was uninhabited, and this was the most prosperous area.

Chen Ci only came here with a tourist mentality. If there were no special attractions, they would go directly to the farm tomorrow.

Human beings lose their land, and all planting and breeding are completed in the farm area. The output of one agricultural area is enough to supply the food needs of all living things on Cinnabar, which shows its high production capacity.

They found a suitable hotel nearby, put their luggage down, and the statement was really too sleepy, checked the camera with mental strength, and fell asleep after confirming that the room was safe.

He finally woke up after three o'clock, and Chen Ci sat on the bed for a while, making his mind clearer.

He thought of the things Chen Nian told him at noon, opened the terminal, and deleted the chat records of the two of them one by one.

From a very young age, Chen Ci knew he was special.

It's just that the price that this particularity brought to him was too heavy.

Now Chen Ci hopes that the same fate will not happen again. He finally won this moment of freedom.

Chen Ci put the matter aside temporarily, washed his face, and called Fu Tianhe next door.

The two only carried a small bag containing drinking water and went out for a stroll.

There are countless research institutes in this area, military industry, medical treatment, materials, energy, aviation, ships, as long as the industries that can be imagined, there are related research bases.

Many places require access control to enter, so they just stand at the gate and look.

Unknowingly, he turned to a nearby street, and Chen Ci was quickly attracted by a special shop.

The storefront is inconspicuous, and the sign says "Love Shelter".

It's not because of Chen Ci's sharp eyes, but because of his mental power, he detected many very weak life fluctuations in it.

He gently pulled off Fu Tianhe's sleeve, and said to Alpha: "Go over there and have a look."

Only then did Fu Tianhe pay attention: "Shelter?"

The two pushed open the heavy glass door and walked into the store.

As soon as he entered the door, he smelled an indescribable stench. Even Fu Tianhe, who had been in the garbage dump all year round, couldn't help frowning.

Chen Ci is wearing a mask, which is a little better. There is not even a staff member at the front desk, only a smart guide board, which seems to be fully intelligent.

Several pictures of beagle dogs are played on a loop on the guide board.

The statement walked to the panel and clicked on the most obvious introduction option.

This is a special shelter where all the animals have been used for various experiments.

They are experimental animals that came out of the research institute alive and were successfully retired.

Dogs are the most popular in the store. After all, few people care about the life and death of rodents like rabbits and mice, and primates such as monkeys are not suitable as pets.

The stench that filled the entire store was emanating from these retired laboratory dogs.

Fu Tianhe leaned over and browsed the introduction with Chen Ci.

The development of every new drug requires rigorous animal testing, with rodents as the first step and mammals as the second step.

Since the 50s, Beagle dogs have been highly praised by American scientists due to their strong pain tolerance and recovery, no struggle, no resistance, no bite, no grudges, and the metabolic indicators of their body organs are closest to humans. , has become the only internationally recognized experimental dog breed, and is widely used in biopharmaceuticals, clinical medicine, component evaluation and other fields.

Most of the beagle dogs that have undergone poisonous drug experiments will be euthanized after the experiment and undergo harmless treatment, but there are still some dogs that have not undergone serious experiments, and they can walk out of the laboratory alive and retire.

This shelter located in the research institute area was specially set up for this purpose.

The store now has 47 retired Beagles waiting to be adopted.

Each one has a special number, which indicates their age, gender, what kind of experiments they have probably experienced, and their current condition, for the adopters to choose.

Fu Tianhe looked at the pictures and words, and couldn't bear to say: "What a poor dog."

"This is a necessary sacrifice." The statement was calm, "Without the contributions made by these experimental animals, modern medicine would cease to exist."

The pinhole on the inside of the arm that had healed long ago seemed to be aching again, and Chen Ci clutched his right arm calmly.

"I know, I'm just a little emotional." Fu Tianhe scratched his head, "Knowing that so many small animals have sacrificed their lives for us, we should cherish their efforts and live well."

After reading the statement carefully, Fu Tianhe asked, "Do you want to raise one?"

The statement did not give a clear answer, but said: "I want to go in and have a look."

He passed the identity verification in front of the guide board, the door to the backstage containment room opened, and Chen Ci and Fu Tianhe walked in one after the other.

As soon as he entered the corridor, the more intense stench made Chen Ci's breath stagnant.

Fu Tianhe even raised his hand to cover his nose, a little puzzled, didn't they help clean the puppy before sending it out?

Soon Chen Ci walked into the containment room and saw the place where the experimental dogs were placed.

It was a row of compartments separated by plastic partitions, each compartment was about [-] centimeters in length, width and height, and there were blue iron cages stuffed into it, and the beagle dogs stayed in the cages.

The scientific name of the Beagle is the Beagle Harrier, which is an ancient hunting dog breed. It likes to bark in groups and is very noisy.

However, these puppies who have undergone many experiments have been trained to seldom make sounds, or are too weak to make sounds, and the entire containment room is silent.

At this moment, Chen Ci seemed to have returned to the laboratory again.

He was escorted down the tidy corridor and saw the puppies in cages through the glass.

Most of them could only lie down in a small cage, looking at him with black eyes with a docile expression.Sometimes when the statement comes out after the physical examination, the dog is gone.

Is it injected with drugs, inhaled poisonous gas, dissected and sutured, or undergoes surgery to fill the body with ingredients of unknown safety?

Realizing that someone was approaching, these dogs just raised their eyelids slightly and did not move. They are used to being docile, even when they were dragged out of the cage and pressed on the laboratory table, the hair on their belly was shaved, and they rarely resisted when they kept getting needles. .

Most of them were dirty, with their fur shaved here and there, revealing their dull pink skin with hideous sutured wounds.

Compared with other dog breeds, the sweat glands of Beagle dogs are not developed enough, and they often cause stench when they don't take a bath, let alone the situation in front of them.

Will the puppies in Base X look like this after the experiment?

He always thought the base would clean everything up.

Chen Ci looked at the cages one by one, and finally he squatted down and stopped in front of a cage.

It's hard to say what's special about this dog compared to its other companions.

But Chen Ci's eyes just stopped on it.

Aware of Chen Ci's gaze, the already very weak puppy tried to stand up, as if he still wanted to please him instinctively.

Chen Ci glanced at the sign on the cage: K41, it was the serial number of the experimental dog.

Chen Ci squatted and observed it for a few minutes.

K41 just stood up and looked at him. It was obviously very weak, and its limbs were trembling unceasingly. Through the narrow cage, the statement could not see its whole picture clearly, but it could be noticed that there was a spot on the dog's shoulder. The wound was sutured not long ago.

I have gone to the base more times, and I can also hear some relevant news from the researchers.

Because the test items are different, the content of the experiment is varied. It may be possible to open the canine chest cavity with surgery, fill it with drugs, and observe whether there is any poisoning reaction after suturing. These animals used for toxicity tests will all be euthanized in the end. Afterwards, they will be autopsyed and checked Whether the internal organs are poisoned.

Only when it is determined to be harmless can the drug be finally approved and used on humans.

"I want it." Chen Ci took one last look, stood up and took the nameplate on the cage in his hand.

"Is this the one?" Fu Tianhe also wanted to take a closer look, but the smell here was too strong, and it always reminded him of some not-so-good memories, "Now that it's decided, let's go out and talk about it."

The two left the containment room and returned to the front desk. The smell here was not very good, but it was much more friendly in comparison. Fu Tianhe couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Seeing that he really wanted to raise a pet, Fu Tianhe said: "You must think it over before making a decision, and you must not be impulsive. After all, raising a pet is not a matter of a day or two. If everything is normal, it can live for more than ten years. Woolen cloth."

"Besides, a dog like this has serious physical and psychological problems. It takes a lot more effort to take care of than ordinary pets. If you are not prepared, you will feel troublesome or tired after a while, and then throw it away. The damage will be greater."

"I know," Chen Ci nodded, "I've already decided."

Obviously, the current life is not stable, and the identity swap with Chen Nian may be exposed at any time, and he will switch back with Chen Nian in a few days. During the return to the top floor, he can't take the puppy with him, so he can only trust him Taking care of Fu Tianhe or Chen Nian and adopting K41 is equivalent to getting them both into trouble.

But Chen Ci still wanted to adopt that puppy, not for anything else but for the pairs of black eyes he had seen through the glass of the laboratory over the years.

He used to have no ability and no opportunity.

Fu Tianhe has known for a long time that Chen Ci is a very firm person, as long as he makes a decision, it is usually after careful consideration, and it is difficult to change it.

"Just think it over." Fu Tianhe didn't say anything more.

Statement: "I will be busy for a period of time every month, and I may not be able to take care of the puppy. If I adopt it, can you help me take care of it for a few days during that time?"

Fu Tianhe: "Of course, it will be a dog adopted by the two of us together. How nice it is."

That should be fine.

The statement clicks on the guide board again and enters the adoption column. Adoption needs to register the specific information of the adopter, including home address, income level, experience in raising pets, etc.

Seeing the column for filling in the specific name and ID number, the statement turned to Fu Tianhe and said, "You fill it in."

At this time, is Jiuyue still unwilling to reveal her real name?

Fu Tianhe was a little depressed, but he didn't say anything after all.

He filled in his name and ID number, and then registered his home address and income level.

In the column of experience or not, he wrote yes, and made a detailed note of the experience as required.

The statement depends on his input sentence by sentence.

In a nutshell, Fu Tianhe raised a kitten when he was six or seven years old, and that kitten passed away due to illness.

Statement: "Have you ever had a cat?"

"It's not a serious raising. Xiaobai is a stray cat near my house. He often comes to play with me, so I feed it some water and food."

Fu Tianhe paused, and then said: "It sees that other people always hide away, and only cares about me alone, and I even gave it a name, so it shouldn't be wrong to call it my cat." Question?"

Chen Ci nodded, indicating that he understood.

Fu Tianhe has a house, savings, and a serious job, and the conditions are considered pretty good in the dungeon.

The adoption registration he submitted was quickly approved. Fu Tianhe paid an adoption fee of 41 Oji, and the machine spit out a magnetic card. They swiped the card in the compartment and they were able to take away the cage containing K[-].

"I have to buy some more dog food." Fu Tianhe stopped by and took a pack of dog food from the store.

Chen Ci returned to the containment room and came to K41. He squatted down, unchained the compartment with a Ci card, and stretched out his hand to drag the cage out.

K41 lay there quietly throughout the whole process, without any resistance or screaming.

The statement quickly carried it away from the stinking room.

Fu Tianhe was finally able to see the puppy's condition clearly. It was as thin as a stick, and the stitched wound on the shoulder was a little pus. According to the information, it was 19 months old, and it should not have been bathed since birth.

Maybe take it home and clean it up first.

Pedestrians on the street outside might frighten the puppy, so Chen Ci took off his coat and covered it with the cage. Maybe the darkness and closure can make it feel more at ease.

Fu Tianhe handed over the dog food to Chen Ci: "Take it home first, I'll go to the supermarket to buy something so I can treat its wound."

Chen Ci returned to the hotel alone, the front desk was playing with the terminal with his head down, he didn't notice that he brought his pet upstairs.

And Fu Tianhe went straight to the supermarket and bought a series of cleaning supplies such as cloth aprons, cotton swabs, alcohol, and absorbent towels.

Cleaning the ears of small animals seems to use a special earwash.Fu Tianhe couldn't remember clearly, so he asked the staff in the supermarket, took a bottle, and bought insect repellent by the way.

When Fu Tianhe went back with his things, Chen Ci was squatting on the ground looking at the puppy in the cage.

The ventilation in the entire room was turned on to the maximum, but the stench of dogs still wafted.

"I have to clean it up first, it smells too bad." Fu Tianhe put the bag on the table.

Chen Ci hummed, and Fu Tianhe squatted down beside him, only to find that the cage door had been open all along.

Even though the cage door was opened, the puppy still shrank inside timidly, not daring to take a step outside.

It has been kept in a cage since it was born and has been growing up in it. The happiest time for most experimental dogs is the day of euthanasia, because they can come out of the experimental cabin and run happily and freely for a minute.

Fu Tianhe poured some dog food in front of the cage: "Give it some time, let it come out slowly by itself."

The trembling weak limbs tentatively wanted to step out, but they didn't dare, and shrank timidly in the depths of the cage.Eyelids drooped, the puppy said nothing, maybe it should have at least whimpered.

Chen Ci looked at it quietly, why did he feel a little stuffy in his chest?

Fu Tianhe sat at the table, studying the few remaining mechanical cores in his hand, and couldn't help but pay attention to the movements on the other side of the statement. He always felt that something was wrong with Jiuyue.

You must know that during the time he spent with Jiuyue, he had never seen the other party show any obvious emotions. Apart from being calm, Jiuyue's face was expressionless, so cold that it was not like the world, no matter what kind of urgent situation he faced , always with a calm look of ease.

The puppy they just brought back was indeed very pitiful, but perhaps because it had seen too many suffering scenes, Fu Tianhe felt that it was alright, at least now it was adopted by himself and Jiuyue, and it would not suffer any more in the future.

Besides, in all fairness, it would be more unbearable to pick out the beating heart of the giant squid. It's not the pity of the primitive creature, but the instinctive avoidance of the bloody scene.

The statement waited for four to ten minutes.

The front paw, which had been probing slightly, finally stepped out of the cage door anxiously.

When the paw pad touched the floor, the puppy flinched subconsciously, making sure that there was no danger, and then slowly shifted its weight to it.

Sniffing carefully, it stepped out of the iron cage with half of its body, tried to touch the dog food in front of it, and looked at the statement beside it, before tentatively taking the first bite.

Chen Ci stretched out his hand and gently touched its head.

At the moment of touching, he obviously felt the puppy flinch violently.

Chen Ci had never raised a small animal, but he also knew that he should try his best to gain its trust first. He stroked the puppy's head until it turned around, and gently sniffed Chen Ci with his nose.

Fu Tianhe also put down the work at hand and came over.

"The condition seems to be quite good." Fu Tianhe also touched it.

After K41 ate up the dog food in front of him, Fu Tianhe raised its forelimbs to check the wounds on its body.

There are many needle holes in the abdomen, and then there is a stitched wound on the left shoulder, and there is some pus.

"Treat the wound first, and then clean it a little, otherwise the smell is too strong."

Fu Tianhe took the tweezers and small scissors bought from the supermarket, and Chen Ci held K41 slightly, watching Fu Tianhe carefully handle the messy sutures on the wound.

The sutures were rough, and the threads were sloppily knotted. After confirming that the flesh had grown, Fu Tianhe removed the stitches, and then cleaned up the pus that flowed out.

Fu Tianhe moves very skillfully, even like a professional pet doctor.

The statement asked: "Can you make these?"

"Actually, it's nothing technical. I used to suture and remove stitches for myself." Fu Tianhe replied casually.

Sounds like a lot of injuries.

The puppy was shaking all the time, but it didn't struggle or bark. Maybe it thought it was a new experiment.

After treating the wounds on the shoulder and abdomen, Fu Tianhe opened its drooping big ears, and saw that the inside was completely covered with black matter, and one of the sources of the stench came from here.

Fu Tianhe: "Ugh."

Even Chen Yu couldn't help holding his breath.

Without further ado, Fu Tianhe used cotton swabs and earwash to clean K41's ears.

Each cotton swab can scoop up a large cloud of black mud, but this is not just simple dirt, but secretions caused by severe ear mites, clotted into lumps.

It's hard to imagine how itchy and uncomfortable it will be.

It took Fu Tianhe two packs of cotton swabs to clean K41's ears.

"Let's do this for the time being." He tied the garbage bag that was almost full, "I guess I have to wait until the wound is almost healed, and then I can give it a bath after I get used to the environment a little bit. That house."

"It's okay." Chen Ci hugged it and said, "It's fine with me."

"Okay, if anything happens, call me next door at any time." Fu Tianhe didn't insist, he stood up, carrying a garbage bag full of medical waste, "I'm going to buy a dinner, you can spend more time with it, deworming I used it just now, and it shouldn’t be able to kill it for a while, so be careful not to have fleas and the like.”

Fu Tianhe cleaned up Chen Ci's room and went out to buy food.

The surroundings became quiet again, the statement did not speak, and K41 did not bark.

It stood quietly in the same place, letting Chen Shi caress it up and down.

Why would you want to adopt a puppy like this?Was it the memories of those years brought back by those pitiful and docile eyes, or did he see himself in them?

The statement is also unclear.

Perhaps the companionship did work, and after the initial timidity passed, the pup looked around, surveying the room.

Chen Ci boiled some warm water for him to drink, and checked some relevant information on the Internet. This kind of experimental dog that has just been retired should have a special feeding method in the early stage.

The room was full of dog smell, Chen Ci opened the window, and his clothes were dirty from holding the dog.

But Chen Ci didn't care, he sent a message to Fu Tianhe, asking him to sell something like a cushion to make a dog's nest, Chen Ci didn't want K41 to continue sleeping in the cage.

Soon, Fu Tianhe came back with dinner and cushions. Unlike Chen Ci, who had been in the room for a long time and had already gotten used to the smell, Alpha couldn't bear to hold his breath as soon as he came in.

You must know that he is a ruthless man who doesn't change his face in the garbage dump.

"Go to my room to eat." Fu Tianhe covered his nose and said in a muffled voice, "When I came back just now, I saw a piano on the road. I don't know who put it there. It looks very expensive. Just play it for everyone. Shall we go and have a look after dinner?"
