Dr. Zuo shook his head at this time and said, "Don't look at me, I don't know either. I just listened to Lao Che's words and ran away like you did." He shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he was unable to help.
So, everyone's attention turned to the old expert Che in front of them. They needed to complete the work as soon as possible in this leaking nuclear power plant.
Although China has implemented various protective measures for nuclear power plants, this neighboring island nation is still prone to disasters and accidents, and the crisis at the nuclear power plant is almost beyond their control.
"Those are the offspring of radiation mutation."
Expert Che smiled bitterly and said, "Since the first nuclear disaster, many people have been mutated due to radiation. The most common diseases at the beginning were cancer. At that time, people's safety awareness of radiation was not strong enough, and many people had never heard of radiation at all." The old man always had endless things to say when recalling the past.
Liu Zhiyuan saw that the area was still some distance away from the nuclear power plant, and they had to wear heavy protective clothing, which made it inconvenient for them to do anything. Now they had to listen to the old expert's explanation, so he simply took his men back, found the car, and parked it in a suitable place to tidy up.
In this room, which is as spacious as a classroom, there is no other object except some moss growing on the wooden floor.
The mottled walls were still written with all the languages of the J country, as if someone had once carved a diary on the wall.
"After the radiation mutation, people exposed to nuclear contamination continued to die. Most adults were unable to have children and chose not to have children. However, a small number of people still chose to give birth to their own children. If you look up historical facts, you'll see many people who lived miserable lives, their entire organs mutated. These are the people we're talking about."
"Mr. Che, do you mean those people are mutated by radiation pollution? No way, it's so powerful, I think he is almost becoming a murderous octopus." Zhang Ziqiang asked in surprise after seeing what was happening behind.
"No, I'm talking about more than that." Old Che shook his head. "The incapable mutant humans are only a small part of what we know. In the past few years, we've conducted continuous investigations and research. Every year, a certain type of animal dies off the coasts of various countries. At first, we simply thought the animals were affected by marine pollution, but every year, extremely high radiation levels were found in them. Decades of accumulated cases finally caught the attention of an extinction protection organization. They firmly believed that there must be some source of radiation continuously injecting into the seawater. However, this idea was immediately rejected by the International Commission on Radiation Fertility."
"You can't use the radiation of a certain animal to explain the source of radiation. That's wrong. The reference base is too one-sided." After hearing this, Dr. Zuo nodded in agreement. After hearing that example, he also felt that this idea was too extreme.
"You're right." Che Lao smiled bitterly, "So, by the time we realized it, it was already too late."
Too late
For a meal, it doesn’t matter if you skip it.
For a student, being late for one day will not affect the trajectory of his life.
But for scientists, the later a crisis is discovered, the more immeasurable the consequences. Starting with AIDS, a lack of adequate awareness allowed the virus to spread globally. What began as a few truck drivers ultimately destroyed countless lives and even countless villages.
This bloody lesson has not yet made people reflect properly. Many problems are still delayed every day.
For the old car expert, not paying attention to that phenomenon is the biggest regret of his life.
"You know that even among humans, there are wise and foolish ones, right?"
The car expert looked at them and asked a seemingly insignificant question.
"The same goes for those mutants infected by radiation. We know that some of them are like those with incurable diseases. No matter how you treat them, there's no hope of a cure. Their genes are disrupted at regular intervals, and then their bodies begin to react. Their immune systems are damaged, and their bodies begin to fester... until they take their last breath and disappear from this world."
"But in fact, the genetic mutations caused by radiation not only destroy human genes, but also cause recombination..."
