Gordon looked at me and pointed to his own heart: "Because it is my own heart, there is no problem of rejection at all." My thoughts were extremely confused. Even though I concentrated on listening to them describe the situation at that time, there was still a "buzzing" in my ears. When Gordon looked at me, I said: "I... just want to ask a question." Rock made a gesture, indicating that I can ask any question, and I said: "That person...that...experiment No. 1, he..." A doctor said: "He died painlessly after being anesthetized." My voice was dry: "I see, the word 'death' is also problematic. Since you don't recognize it as a life, how can there be death?"

Du Liang frowned: "I have said long ago that the new concept we have established is difficult for the world to accept." I involuntarily closed my eyes. When I closed my eyes, I seemed to see a young and healthy person, who was anesthetized, lying on the operating table, and then, the first-class surgeon beside him was skillfully operating With a knife, he cut open his chest, took out his heart from his chest, and moved it into another person's chest. Of course, the person lying on the operating bed died immediately. This person did not exist in the first place, and no one would pursue him after his death. It can be said that he was nothing at all.

However, which person in the world originally existed?This man, whatever his number, was a man, and he was killed.However, because of his death, another person survived.People who survive can quickly breed such people again. Is this moral, or immoral? My mind was truly in turmoil. Guess that Du Liang, Luo Ke and other nine people must have the same mood when they were discussing. I looked at them, like Luo Ke, Du Liang and the others, who immediately decided "yes", their thinking, is it right? right? From a practical point of view, of course, nothing was wrong, "Experiment One" died, and Gordon survived.Using the same method, everyone's life can be extended to a limited extent, and many diseases that modern medicine is helpless can be treated simply and easily.Like Tao Qiquan's heart disease, Prince Apant's stomach cancer, etc., and even the entire internal storage can be replaced through surgery.

"Experiment No. 1" was nothing more than a backup for Gordon.Just like a car has a spare tire, if the original tire in use breaks down, the spare tire will be replaced. If "Experiment No. 1" is not a person at all, but just a group of organs, then there is nothing wrong with it. However, "Experiment No. 1" is clearly a living person. When I was tongue-tied and didn't know how to express my opinion, Du Liang said, "It's not easy to draw conclusions, is it? I have already said that this new concept is not easy for people to accept." I snorted: "Especially when this so-called new concept is used as a tool to make money, it is even more difficult to accept."

Du Liang also snorted: "You can't criticize us because of this. Yes, we got a lot of money because of it. Now, the wealth accumulated in our hospital is more than any foundation, even more than the Roman Catholic Church. We can use this money to carry out our research work." My thoughts are still very confused, and I can't sort out a clue, but I still have enough wit: "A lot of money is bought with a lot of lives." Du Liang smiled coldly, and said, "I think your statement is wrong. Ever since we performed a heart transplant on Gordon and he recovered quickly, we found that the experiments we conducted were originally The goal of prolonging human life through the generation of another new self has not been achieved, but it cannot be regarded as a complete failure. At least we can prolong human life to a limited extent. This is really a great discovery. This discovery, made by Gordon after his full recovery."

Du Liang made a "please" gesture to Gordon, asking him to continue talking. Gordon said: "My heart disease is completely healed. We have broken through a blind spot in modern medicine. There are many incurable diseases that can be treated with this method, so we began to draw up a large-scale plan." The plan is very large. First, a group of people are trained, and the method of training secret agents is completely used to train those people to become alert and fast-moving special personnel. Then, collect the daily life and living habits of various super figures in the world.When you figure it out, send out trained personnel.

What the trainees have to do is actually not difficult, as long as the selected target is injured a little and bleeds a little.Such a slight injury is unavoidable for anyone in his life, and he will not care about it.The difficulty is that super big people are generally not easy to get close to, and once they get close, they can achieve their goals. As a result, various methods of getting close to the super-big shots were adopted, and when meeting Prince Apant, he pretended to be a representative of Japan's oil purchases.When meeting with Japanese business tycoons, he pretended to be an Arab.

After obtaining the blood cells of the super tycoon, they were properly preserved in the fastest way, and sent to the Leman Sanatorium, where they were cultivated into adults in the laboratory by asexual reproduction.Generally speaking, it only takes five years for the cultivated person to grow into a person exactly like the super tycoon and become their backup. These backup people are raised in the back room of Leman Hospital and receive the best care to keep them healthy and ready to play their backup role in case of any need. The back-up people have no intelligence, and sometimes they will escape. The General Ziluo that Qiu Lun saw by the lake was actually one of Ziluo's back-ups.

Super tycoons only know that they have suffered a bizarre minor injury, and some even think it was a small accident. They have no idea that they have a backup.Until their health problems occurred, and they were seriously ill, like Tao Qiquan——When Gordon talked about this, I waved my hand abruptly: "Wait a minute." Gordon stopped, looked at me, and I said, "I have two very serious questions to ask." Gordon's expression was full of confidence, as if he could answer any question.I took a breath: "The first question is: Did you intentionally cause the super tycoon's disease? For example, Mr. Tao Qiquan's heart disease?"

Gordon smiled slightly: "Of course not, if that's the case, it's a crime." I hummed: "Then how do you know that he will have a heart attack? How do you know that Prince Apant will have cancer?" Gordon said, "We don't know. We just bred their spares and waited until they were needed. There was a spare tire in the trunk of the car and no one knew it would replace the four original tires." Which one of them. But out of four tires in use, one must go bad." I frowned: "In this way——" Gordon interrupted me: "Football teams have reserve players, and no one knows which official player will go wrong. The reserve is there. If you can use it, you can use it. If you don't need it, there is no loss, because we Having accumulated considerable experience, it is not difficult to cultivate a backup person."

I understood what Gordon meant, and I couldn't help feeling a chill in my heart: "In this way, the backup people you cultivate──" Gordon glanced at everyone present, as if seeking everyone's approval, and then he said: "The correct number of reserve personnel we have cultivated is five hundred and twenty-seven. In the past few years, every year Twenty-six can be used on average, and there has been an increasing trend in the past two years." He looked at me in a daze, and said again: "You know, the life of super big people is actually not easy, they have to pay more mental and physical work than ordinary people, although they have the best doctors to take care of their health, But there are many diseases with a very high prevalence rate, especially heart disease. And heart disease is the easiest one to cure." I reached out and tapped my forehead: "Like Mr. Tao Qiquan──" Gordon said: "Take him as an example to see the way we act. Mr. Tao is one of the richest people in Asia. Once his health has problems, we can't hide it from others. As soon as the news spreads, we will carry out activities." Their activities are very orderly and not hasty.If the disease the target suffers from is within the scope of modern medicine, they will not show up at all. When the target disease is confirmed and modern medicine can't do anything, they will come forward.There are many ways to come forward, but there is only one purpose: to meet and talk directly with the target.The way Rock met with Tao Qiquan was to pretend to be Dr. Barnard's personal representative. Tao Qiquan knew that he was terminally ill, but no rich man in the world was willing to accept this fact.No matter how much they value money at ordinary times, when they reach the threshold of death, they will be willing to give a lot of money, even 99% of their property, in exchange for their lives. And, almost without exception, as soon as they knew they could live, they signed the transfer of property immediately. Here, I posted a small question: "Sign the property transfer document? How can they agree? They are all smart people. If they can't be cured after signing, what should they do?" Roque laughed "hehe" and said, "Thank you people from your country for solving this problem for us." I really didn't understand what Roque meant by saying that, so I had to stare at him. In the era when officials were recruited through examinations, there was a method of cheating called 'buying joints of bones'?" I couldn't help but be a bit ironic: "It's called 'selling joints', that is, people who want to take the test write the selected people on the test paper. The examiner will know that they are the ones who pay the money, and they will be admitted. " Rock said: "Yeah, these test takers, how do they pay?" As soon as I heard Roque say this, I couldn't help screaming "ah", and I was very angry and funny at the same time. People who buy joints for the exam usually write a note, and after the note, sign it, stating "the new imperial examination person has a loan".If the joints are not working well and you can't pass the exam, you are not a new imperial examination candidate, and of course you don't have to pay back the money. Chinese people with a little knowledge of history know this kind of thing. Naturally, I also understood that the date on the documents signed by those important people must be the day when they knew they would die by then.Like Tao Qiquan, knowing that he only has one month to live, he is of course willing to ask him to sign a document that will be a year later.If he gets a good cure, he will willingly fulfill all the promises in the document. If he doesn't get well, the document will be of no use at all. I said "uh" and said, "Smart way." Rock said: "Yes, it is completely voluntary, and in most cases, we are all scientists and not good at business operations, so what we ask for is only one-half or one-third of the patient's annual income. These Patients have too much money, and I don't see any harm in using too much of their money to advance our scientific research." I sighed, and indeed, that didn't do any harm.But I have another problem, which is more serious. I was thinking about how to raise this question, but Rock had already urged: "You just said that there are two questions, what is the other one?" I said slowly: "You have repeatedly emphasized that the back-up people have no thoughts and no consciousness. Because they are cultivated, they cannot be regarded as a kind of life, right?" They were silent for a moment before Gordon said: "That's what it means, but the rhetoric can be discussed. For example, they are basically products in the laboratory, and the purpose of cultivating them is to serve as backup." I raised my voice: "I have objections to this point. They may not be completely devoid of intelligence and thought. At least, they will flee. Moreover, when they flee and are captured by the people you sent, they will will struggle, they want to be free." I spoke very seriously, thinking that what I said would definitely make them at least spend a lot of effort before they could answer.However, the result was unexpected. My words provoked a burst of laughter. Rock said: "First, they are not fleeing, but they are in the fixed action training, the staff's negligence for a while, let them go out. In fact, even the most unconscious creatures are changed by external forces. There will be natural struggles." I wanted to say something else, but Gordon said: "The reason why Mr. Wei has such doubts is because he doesn't understand the living conditions of the back-up. I suggest that you simply ask him to take a look, and he will understand." Du Liang frowned: "Actually, that's not pretty──" I immediately interrupted his words: "Even if it's not good-looking, I still want to watch it." That situation was really not good-looking at all, not only bad-looking, but also extremely disgusting, so disgusting that I really didn't want to write about the life of the "reserve" in detail, but only planned to write a rough one. Their appearance is all human, and when I first saw them, I was really shocked. In any important meeting in the world, there will not be so many big figures gathered together. However, they are all the backup of the big man, ready to "use" after the big man's body goes wrong.Everything about them has to be taken care of by others, including eating and excreting. I can only say that the "backups" I have seen are all well taken care of. Whether this kind of life is really life or not is life, which makes me confused. Du Liang and the others revealed their secrets in front of me without reservation. I am very grateful to them, and all the mysteries in my heart have been solved.But if I were to completely agree with their ideas, I would not be able to do so.Whether I want to oppose their actions, I can't make up my mind.In a word, I am completely confused. When I was about to leave, Du Liang took me to another operating room, took out a very sharp knife, and motioned to me. I stretched out my hand and let him stroke my finger lightly. After a moment, a drop of blood dripped into a vial. When I did this, I naturally understood that this small drop of blood, they can successfully cultivate a backup, once my body organs have any incurable diseases or injuries, this backup can save my life. life. I can't help but smile wryly.Human beings' values ​​for life are extremely self-centered.If I need to use "backup", should I consider my own life first, or the backup life?At that time, I would think, what is the backup, it is just a cell in my body, and an unknown number of cells in my body are dying every day. I had one more meeting with Cullen before I finally left the hospital.Of course it wasn't Qiu Lun, but the moment before Qiu Lun died, they took the cells from Qiu Lun's body and cultivated a "backup". But the situation is different, Chu Lun is dead, and there will never be a situation where the backup will be used, and this backup will have to survive meaninglessly. Du Liang, Rock and Gordon sent me to the door. The three of them discussed in a low voice before Du Liang spoke and asked, "Do you have the simplest comment on the work we are doing?" There is no need for him to ask me this question. I have asked myself countless times, and it is impossible to have an answer, because my views on this matter are extremely confused. Accept or decline. I had no choice but to smile bitterly: "All I can say is that I can't make any comments." Rock nodded and said, "Well, this reaction is normal." I was already walking forward, but all of a sudden, I stood still and said, "If one day, a person cultivated in the laboratory suddenly has a mind, what should I do?" "That's exactly what we dream of," Gordon said. I took a breath: "Don't you think that if such a day really happens, it won't be a disaster for mankind?" The expressions of Gordon, Du Liang and Rock were very strange, as if the thing I mentioned would never happen. Du Liang said: "How could it be? There will be no earth-shaking changes, no—" I shook my head and said, "Don't be too sure, scientists, don't be too sure, earth-shaking changes may be earth-shaking disasters." The three of them remained silent, their expressions clearly disapproving.I won't argue with them anymore, because this is the future, and who can make judgments about the future? Rock said: "Will you tell Miss Haven what you know?" I shook my head and said, "No, I won't tell anyone except my wife, Bai Su. I will use another story to deceive Miss Haiwen—" I said this, paused, and then said: "I'm afraid it will take at least several years before I can forget the look of the back-up people, so confused and helpless, as if they know their own destiny deep in their hearts." Du Liang sighed and said, "My friend, that is your subjective impression. I believe it is entirely your subjective impression." I had no choice but to smile wryly, besides trusting him, there was really no other way for me to go. On Haiwen's side, I made up a story. She didn't know whether she believed it or not, but she didn't pursue it any further. I almost fled Switzerland and left Switzerland. At the airport, Sha Ling came to see me off, and I said to him in the most sincere voice: "Old friend, please believe me, everything...is not normal, but it is not our ability to stop it-don't ask, just believe I'm fine. What I'm talking about is incompetence, because I'm so confused about what happened, I don't know what it is!" Sha Ling looked at me. We are old friends after all. He believed my words and didn't ask any more questions. After I got home, I told Bai Su the whole story. Judging from Bai Su's bewildered expression, I knew it was difficult for her to draw conclusions, and she felt as confused as I did. Half a month later, Tao Qiquan stepped down from his private plane in good spirits, accepted the cheers from the welcome crowd, and on the third day after his return, he offered to see me.I saw him sitting in a large, soft easy chair, cast a mocking look at me: "Who says money can't buy life? I said long ago that money is everything." I had no choice but to smile bitterly, Tao Qiquan leaned forward: "You promised them, and you won't tell anyone?" I was a little helpless: "Yes." Tao Qiquan sat up straight again, and said: "I am very grateful to them. They don't ask much. I am going to give them more to show my gratitude." I said coldly, "This is a matter for both of you." I got up to say goodbye, Tao Qiquan sent me out, and patted my shoulder: "When you are facing the critical moment of life and death, you will know how great their work is." I didn't debate it because, all the way through, I was just confused and couldn't say for or against it at all. At this point, the matter can be said to be over, and there is only a small aftermath, which is worth describing. About three months after Prince Apant returned home, he launched a coup. The successful coup made him the head of the country, that is to say, he can freely dispose of the oil revenue in the area he ruled. Apante's status was achieved, of course, in order to pay Lerman Hospital oil revenues. Many people died in the coup, which seems to be caused by the request of Leman Hospital, but this kind of thing keeps happening in the world, and it seems that Leman Hospital cannot be completely blamed. In the days to come, I paid close attention to the news of injuries and illnesses of super big figures.Lerman Hospital is still not well-known at all, and no one would pay attention to a small hospital in such a small place. Until a big man was wounded, very badly, shot twice, the wounded was seventy years old, but within a month, this big man appeared in front of the public again, I know, this is Le An example of the success of Cayman Hospital.I couldn't help but sighed, still confused. What is going on in Lerman Hospital, how to draw conclusions, can only be left to history to evaluate.
