under hope

Body modification. During the Strange War, many radicals in various countries proposed such unethical ideas.

They combined humans with alien beasts, added alien blood to humans and forcibly transplanted alien organs, thus giving birth to nondescript monsters known as superhumans.

Many soldiers and children were sacrificed in that experiment, but the final result was just a twisted monster with defective intelligence.

This experiment has already produced this scene:

——The city's protective shield is extremely hard and the military is heavily guarded, but the houses are sparsely populated.

The alien beasts failed to break through the defense line, but humans themselves abused their fellow humans.

Since then, countries have banded together to set rules banning human experimentation.

He originally thought that no matter how paranoid Hongchang was, he would definitely not touch this ban. After all, Hongchang had made some progress.

But now, the round birthmark that appeared in front of the doctor made him lose all confidence.

——"Report to the biology department tomorrow."

Such a simple statement, why didn't he notice it? No normal company would let a school-going child participate in biological experiments.

"Doctor, how is it? Can it be solved?"

Seeing that the doctor remained silent, the girl asked in a low voice

"It's a normal phenomenon in the developmental stage. Just tolerate it for a while and it will be fine. There is no way to interfere with this."

The doctor had a frown on his face when he said this, which frightened the girl who turned her head.

"What's wrong, doctor? Is it serious?"

The girl put on her clothes gently and turned around to face the doctor, her tone revealing uneasiness.

"It's okay, it's okay, you are in good health."

The doctor quickly forced out a smile, although it didn't look very natural.

"Really? Great, thank you Doctor."

A bright smile appeared on the girl's face, just like a blooming flower. The blooming colors and light dispelled all the haze in the doctor's heart at this moment.

"Xiaocan...your name is Xiaocan, is that okay?"

Mumbling to himself gradually turned into overjoyed, and the doctor gave the girl a name in the blink of an eye.

"Eh? Xiaocan? Is that me? Is it my name?"

The girl pointed at herself in disbelief and asked several questions nervously.

"Yes, that's your name."

The doctor calmed down and replied in a calmer tone.

"Then I will call you Xiaocan from now on?"

Although her cheeks were already blushing, the girl still looked at the doctor with expectant eyes.

"Yes, Xiaocan, you are welcome."

At this moment, the doctor also made up his mind to have a fight with his old friend. Since warnings can't be used, he can only take practical actions. When he and Xiao Can walked to the pool, Xiao Lan and Xiao Huang immediately came up to them, scrambling to be the first. Tell the doctor your opinion on the name of the new member

"PhD! Based on the hair color, I think it should be called Xiaofen!"

Xiao Lan, who spoke first, said confidently.

"wrong! You can't always name them like this. The name of the new member should be given to the doctor."

Xiao Huang's angry expression and her unique slender voice gave people a very cute feeling, which made the doctor couldn't help but hug Xiao Huang.

"Stop arguing, the new members already have names. Let’s get to know everyone."

The doctor stroked Xiao Huang's hair lovingly and winked at the girl.

"Got a name? What is it? The doctor’s habits must be a little fan!"

Xiao Lan expressed her opinion excitedly, and also expected the girl to speak.

Xiao Huang wanted to refute Xiao Lan immediately. As soon as she opened her mouth, the doctor reached out and covered her mouth.

This was the first time the doctor saw Xiao Huang looked at himself with aggrieved eyes, and could feel his little mouth pouting in dissatisfaction.

"look forward."

The doctor quietly whispered to Xiao Huang.

Seeing the girl looking like she was about to announce something big, Xiao Lu also swam to the edge of the pool curiously.

All the members were in place. The girl took a deep breath and exhaled long, curious. , spoke with kind and expectant eyes.

"Big...everyone...hao...well……"

As soon as she said a few words, the girl suddenly covered her mouth and her cheeks turned red visibly.

"Um?"

Xiao Lu tilted her head, wondering about this.

"Ah, bitten your tongue?"

After a long moment of silence, Xiao Lan broke the deadlock.

"My name is Xiaocan, and I would like to ask for your advice in the future."

Xiao Can blushed and quickly finished the rest of the sentence.

"Xiaocan? I thought the Doctor liked naming colors, but it turns out he likes to add the word 'small'."

Xiao Lan had an expression full of knowledge, which made the doctor want to hit her on the head. Fortunately, he finally endured it.

The four of them quickly became familiar with each other. Xiao Can was taller than Xiao Lan. His personality is also calmer and simpler than Xiao Lan's.

However, he seems a bit too innocent, and is often played around by Xiao Lan. However, Xiao Can seems to be able to control the size of the sound waves independently. The doctor saw Xiao Can using smaller sound waves to make the naughty little boy laugh. Lan was blown away.

The doctor also stayed at the institute today, and the four of them played until very late before running back to the lounge to sleep.

"Doctor, can I sleep there?"

In the lounge, other mermaids were already asleep on the water bed. Only Xiao Can was wearing pajamas, standing next to the doctor and asking questions.

"Did they prepare this for you?"

Looking at the pajamas with the same hollow under the armpits, the doctor was shocked again.

"Yeah, I'm... not used to being in the water."

Xiao Can explained in a low voice.

"Also, the scales have not grown properly, and human skin is indeed not suitable for soaking in water for a long time."

The doctor thought for a while, then got out of bed to make room for Xiao Can.

"PhD? You don't have to be like this."

Xiao Can was flattered and waved his hands repeatedly.

"It's okay, I'll lay the floor."

The doctor gently pushed Xiao Can to the bed, and he spread a blanket on the floor to sleep on it.

"How about it? Are you used to lying down?"

The doctor asked, looking at the ceiling.

"Well, very comfortable."

Xiao Can replied.

Tonight, the doctor was full of thoughts again. He was thinking about how to stop Lin Hongchang's research. Xiao Can was undoubtedly an individual he had spent a lot of effort to create, and he didn't know whether he had the ability to communicate with God. Maybe he had the ability to communicate with God.

Can he lie? Yes, tell Lin Hongchang that Xiao Can does not have the ability to communicate.

But...will this prompt him to continue to carry out human body modification? In that case, he will only get deeper into forbidden research.

What about letting them go?

Doctor A bold idea came up.

Let the mermaids go, let him lose all the research results, and force him to give up the mermaid cloning plan.

No, letting go of the research results will only make the already paranoid Hongchang even crazier..

So what should we do? The doctor couldn’t think of a good way for a while.

"Sir, could you please lower your voice? I want to take a rest."

The doctor suddenly heard Xiao Can's subtle voice, as if he was talking to someone? He was not sure, so he held his breath and listened carefully.

"Please stop talking. Sorry, it's a bit noisy."

Xiao Can's voice sounded again, seeming very embarrassed.

"Xiaocan?"

The doctor sat up and patted the bed several times.

"Ah, doctor? Sorry, did I wake you?"

Hearing the doctor's call, Xiao Can suddenly turned his head and said to the doctor apologetically

"Who are you talking to?"

The doctor asked seriously

"I don’t know him either. I can always hear the sound of the waves, and His voice also comes with the waves."

Xiao Can softly explained to the doctor

"Sound of the waves? The god of the sea? Can Xiaocan answer that god?"

After listening to Xiao Can's words, the doctor was stunned.

"Doctor, He stopped talking and I'm going to sleep."

Xiao Can tapped the stunned doctor with his finger, and then got into the quilt with a blushing face.

"OK"

The doctor lay back on the carpet, but he was still thinking about Xiao Can.

Xiao Cheng's communication with God was not like this. Xiao Can only seemed to think that the voice was very noisy.

If Xiao Cheng is imperfect...could it be said that Xiao Cheng is not perfect? Cheng can only listen but not respond, while Xiao Can can not only hear but also respond.

In this way, Xiao Can is already the perfect individual that Lin Hongchang needs. If he is told all this, Xiao Can may not be able to stay. here, and Hongchang will definitely contact the evil sea god through Xiaocan.

Tonight, the doctor stayed up all night, and he barely slept for a few hours until the early morning. At nine o'clock in the morning, his cell phone rang The phone rang, and when I opened my burning eyes, I found that the mermaids were no longer on the bed.

The caller was Hongchang.

"Hello?"

The doctor answered the phone

"Lao Zheng, come to the conference room. Today is the day to report on the progress of various projects."

Lin Hongchang's voice came from the mobile phone

"knew."

The doctor simply replied and climbed up from the carpet with difficulty.

On the way to the entrance of the institute, the doctor accidentally bumped into Xiaolan who was secretly practicing dancing.

"Wow! Doctor, what are you going to do?"

Xiao Lan, who was intoxicated by her own dancing, blushed suddenly and straightened her back pretending to be calm.

"Go to a meeting, what are you doing? Dance?"

The doctor replied calmly and even joked to Xiaolan knowingly.

"Then...that's right. I just wanted to reproduce the movements in my memory, so I didn't want to show you the twists."

Xiaolan made a face at the doctor, then covered her red face and ran away.

"It's so easy to understand..."

The doctor smiled and then left the institute.

In the conference room, the ministers of each department were sitting around the round table. The senior sister who arrived later deliberately changed places with the biology minister next to her.

"Now that everyone is here, I won’t gossip any more and let’s get started. Lin Hongchang , who was obviously sitting in the center, stood up and waved his hand. Then, the ministers began to report the progress one by one in a clockwise direction.

"At present, the C-type bionic man has entered the AI ​​development stage. After the dean’s guidance, we already have a clear goal."

"The analysis of the vaccine flowing from the Theocracy has been completed. It is an organization similar to the blood of sand beasts, and the report has been submitted."

"Regarding the mutation problem, we have carried out detailed investigations in various cities and it has been greatly improved."

……

Time passed quickly, and after the senior stood up and finished her speech, it was the doctor's turn next.

But the doctor seemed to be in a daze and didn't stand up for a long time.

"Hello! It's your turn."

The senior pinched his thigh hard, and then the doctor came back to his senses.

"Oh, sorry, I got distracted."

The doctor quickly stood up and apologized. Due to his status, not many people dared to complain about him. They all laughed and joked,"Doctor is too tired."

"Lao Zheng, tell me, how is the latest individual doing? Lin

Hongchang asked with a smile.

"Well..., the latest individual..., she meets all the contents in the report."

Hearing this, Lin Hongchang clapped his hands happily and signaled the doctor to sit down.

However, the doctor added another sentence

"She can't hear the waves, but I find she's still developing and it will take me some time to adjust."

The smile on Lin Hongchang's face disappeared, and his clapping hands froze.

"How long will it take?"

Lin Hongchang asked

"About two years, they have too many secrets, I need to observe their growth and development."

The doctor thought that saying this could delay Lin Hongchang's implementation of the plan. Because there was only one recoverable flaw, there was no need to carry out drastic re-cloning. There was deathly silence in the conference room, and only the crisp"click" sound could be heard.

"As for biology, growth is slow, and a doctorate is also hard work."

Amidst the silence, the senior sister broke the deadlock with a smile.

"Yes, yes, living things always need time to grow."

Most of the other ministers did not understand the actual situation of the institute, and they all agreed with the senior sister with a smile.

"Okay, come on. Lin

Hongchang nodded, and the smile that followed was extremely stiff.

After the doctor sat down, the senior sister cast a confused and worried look at him, and she quickly said to him in a small voice:

"After a while, I went to the bar, the same place."

The doctor did not answer immediately, but listened to all the content of the meeting with his head empty.

He lied, he lied to his old friend.

But this was to prevent his old friend from continuing to fall into taboos.

——I did nothing wrong, this is all for Hongchang.

He thought so.
