my son billions

The next day, after Xu Chu woke up from the bed, he received a message from Josephine.

Xu Chu also felt very good that Josephine could persuade her family to let her go for a walk.

Staying in familiar surroundings, you will always be plagued by the same problems.And after leaving this small world, the wider world outside can bring Josephine more wonderful things.

Since he had been away from Moremo for a long time, and had missed the last transport team to bring the scrap back to Kuipengla, Xu Chu was almost eager to go back this time.

The two quickly bought the boat tickets, and Xu Chu, carrying a bag full of gifts, made an appointment with Josephine to meet at the airport.

When Josephine came, Joan and Beverly followed.The three said goodbye for a long time, and Josephine and Xu Chucai walked into the safe passage together under the eyes of the two friends.

While waiting for the spaceship, Josephine looked around curiously, and at the same time inquired about Moremo on the optical network.

"I checked, and the optical network said that it would take a month to get from Capital Star to Mormo! You have been on the spaceship for so long, how did you pass the time?"

Xu Chu recalled his itinerary for more than a month at that time, but he said with a smile: "It's over after eating, eating, sleeping and sleeping. Sometimes when the spaceship passes by certain celestial bodies, the captain will open a part of the window to let us watch those special objects in the universe." Celestial Phenomena. Great every time."

In fact, on the spacecraft, the optical brain is basically disconnected from the outside world.Only occasionally when passing by some inhabited planets, the optical brain can temporarily connect to the signal.

So for people who are used to relying on optical brains for work and entertainment, they can't actually do anything on the spaceship.So this month is like a long vacation for everyone.Everyone on board needs to think about work-related matters, and the entire cabin is like a large adult playground—although the facilities are lacking, there is no need to be afraid of being bored in a place with people.

Some people will be obsessed with meeting different people, chatting and gathering every day, and even some other things will happen.

And some people climb out of the narrow cabin as soon as they open their eyes, find a few like-minded people on the ship, and get together every day to play some real games or virtual games that don’t require optical brains. The game is probably something like a board game that Xu Chu understands.

Josephine's eyes lit up a little when she heard this, and she asked expectantly: "Then can I play with you guys then? I have never participated in such an event, and I know nothing."

Xu Chuwen said with a smile: "I didn't know anything at the beginning, but everyone was very patient at that time. Everyone is willing to teach you, as long as you are willing to participate, they are very welcome. But then we will try our best Still together, don't get too close to other strangers."

Josephine nodded quickly when she heard the words, but said happily: "Fortunately, I didn't upgrade our tickets. I heard that the first class can connect to the optical network for a longer period of time, and some of them are okay. Choose to sleep directly to keep the body's low metabolism. In this way, you can reach the destination after a few sleeps. But from this point of view, such a trip seems very boring."

While the two were talking, Josephine began to look for some games that could be played on the spaceship on the official website.Whether it's real or virtual, she watched it with gusto.But then he frowned slightly, and then sighed imperceptibly.

"What's the matter?" Xu Chu couldn't help asking when he saw Josephine's dull and even angry expression after completing the customs clearance procedures for the three small ones.

Josephine turned her head to look at him, and then turned the optical brain virtual screen in her hand to Xu Chu.

Xu Chu looked down for a while, and found that it was a piece of social news, and it was about the child of a certain wealthy businessman who passed away due to a genetic breakdown due to a failed enhancement in the previous 10 minutes.

There is neither any picture and video information nor a specific description of the strengthening process.Except for naming a certain wealthy businessman, it was just a message similar to a text message.

But thinking of a young life leaving this world while they were talking, the smile on Xu Chu's face gradually subsided.

But what really made Josephine angry was another reason, "This child is only 12 years old! Experts recommend that the earliest strengthening time is around 14 years old, but this parent injected the child with genetic enhancement injections at the age of 12." !"

Xu Chu frowned upon hearing this, and turned to look at Josephine.

And Josephine still said indignantly: "Generally, before doing genetic enhancement, they will undergo genetic testing like me. Some children will have a very low chance of success, just like me, so it is not recommended to enhance. Others , even if they have a certain success rate of strengthening, because of the pain caused by the drastic physical changes brought about by genetic modification during the strengthening process, it is not recommended to strengthen them if they are younger than 14 years old."

"Then why did they strengthen the child at such a young age?" Xu Chu was puzzled by this.

"Because the earlier the gene enhancement injection is injected, the more the enhanced genes will be reflected in various functions of the body. Therefore, in order to pursue better enhancement effects, some parents will ignore warnings, and the death rate is very high. High."

"And if the genetic enhancement fails, those children will not only face death. Once the gene chain is opened, the deformed genes that fail to recombine will continue to be transcribed, and many organs and tissues that do not belong to humans will appear on their bodies. In the end, the whole person will be covered with All kinds of strange pieces of meat have become a pool of rotten meat that cannot be seen at all. During the period, the competition and confrontation between organs and tissues, rejection reactions, etc., caused pain that is unimaginable to ordinary people. All this, until all tissues Death from exhaustion is the end."

Xu Chu sat down silently upon hearing this.Looking at the news in front of him with only a hundred words or so, he seemed to be able to see a child's painful and desperate wailing behind the words.

"Won't the government govern this kind of thing?" Xu Chu asked after a long silence.

Josephine put away the optical brain in her hand, her good mood was gone, but she said indifferently: "It is not ordinary families who can get the gene enhancement needle. Even if they can't get it through official channels, there are still some in the black market. This is still exposed, and more are not exposed. Those who failed are nothing more than reporting an accidental death, and no one will investigate at all. As for the success, it is a great happy event, and who will go to it? What about the investigation?"

Xu Chu could imagine the mentality of those parents who hoped that their children would become dragons and their daughters would become phoenixes, but such an approach was too extreme, and it was too terrifying for those children.

Speaking of Josephine, she couldn't help sighing again, "Actually, I'm very lucky. My parents gave up genetic enhancement when it was detected that my genes had only a very low success rate—so I can live now."

On the other side, Chapman, who got the news, quickly led people to Swinburne Manor.The guards of the manor obviously couldn't stop him, and he broke into the auxiliary building with almost no resistance.

When he walked into the huge room and saw Claire lying quietly on the mechanical table, he frowned tightly and whispered to the man who had been standing by - Rafael Divas.

"He's only eight! Are you crazy?"

"After the booster injection, all his statistics are very satisfactory, and Claire will be able to get over it soon." Raphael is still in the same clothes, but after removing the headscarf, his appearance known as the shining star It was revealed, so bright that many people couldn't look directly at it.

But after hearing Raphael's words, Chapman held his breath in his chest.

It is of course a good thing that genetic enhancement can be successful.But before being proven successful, Claire needs to take bigger risks than all of them.

Use this eight-year-old physique to accept this strengthening.The pain generated during the strengthening process is completely beyond the reach of children of this age.This point, Chapman, who has been strengthened many times, is very clear in his heart.

But having been husband and wife with Raphael for more than ten years, he also knows very well that this man who looks gentle and harmless on the outside is actually terribly stubborn on the inside.They couldn't communicate or convince each other on many things, especially when it came to Claire.

Raphael seems to have unimaginably high expectations of Claire, trying to raise him to be the best person in the world.The tremendous pressure on Claire during this period made him unable to be as happy as an ordinary child most of the time.

On this matter, the two of them argued many times.He even used force, and once took Claire away and brought him up by his side.

But after a while, Claire finally cried and begged to return to Raphael.

Even though this child was often oppressed by Raphael as if he was about to be unable to bear all this, he had a soft heart that neither of them had.

Seeing Claire lying on the mechanical table with a pale face, he couldn't help but take a deep breath and slowly suppress the anger in his heart.Chapman finally turned his head and glanced at Raphael.Without saying a word, he turned and walked out of Swinburne Manor.

After getting on the aircraft, Chapman said to the adjutant beside him: "Send someone to watch here, once Claire walks out of the observation room, bring him to me."

He used to think that even if Raphael was irrational, he would not do anything to really hurt Claire.But now he felt that he was so wrong.

He can no longer think about Raphael with ordinary people's thinking - because as early as 22 years ago, after he killed that man with his own hands, he was already crazy.
