living room.
"Dad, I think you should just give up."
As soon as the door opened, Lü Yongchang's voice became clear: "Let's just accept our fate, you probably aren't cut out for this..."
Upon hearing this, Su Yutong, who had just stepped out of the room, twitched at the corner of her mouth and couldn't help but reveal a helpless smile on her face.
Thanks to the latest gene-editing technology, even after several hibernations, Mr. and Mrs. Lü are still in relatively good health.
After unlocking the secrets of his own quantum transformation through the guidance of the technology tree, Lü Yongchang can even transform the two elderly people into "quantum humans" just like himself.
but……
Both Lü Guotao and Zhou Qingru rejected Lü Yongchang's proposal.
Not to mention Mr. and Mrs. Lü, even within the Chinese Academy of Sciences, very few people would choose to transform themselves into "high-dimensional quantum beings".
The reason is simple.
On the one hand, the process of higher-dimensional quantization is irreversible.
In other words, choosing higher-dimensional quantization is equivalent to completely abandoning one's carbon-based body.
On the other hand, high-dimensional quantization consumes enormous amounts of resources.
Even in today's human civilization, there are only a limited number of slots available.
Moreover, with the help of genetic modification technology, human lifespan is now long enough.
Immortality is not always a good thing.
It's even a curse—especially with such limited spots.
therefore.
To this day, Su Yutong is the only one in all of human civilization who has voluntarily accepted this "curse".
"Accept your fate?" Lu Guotao's booming voice rang out in the living room, interrupting Su Yutong's thoughts. "Is this something a chief scientist like you should say?"
“Let me tell you, your dad, I, Lü Guotao, am not one to accept my fate!”
"They're just a few lousy fish! I refuse to believe I can't keep them alive!"
Su Yutong's smile grew even wider.
This has caused quite a stir.
Since the victory in the war and the beginning of peaceful development, Mr. Lü, who had returned to a peaceful life, had a new hobby - raising fish.
Literally, it means simply raising fish.
However, this is the species of fish...
It is definitely not an ordinary ornamental fish from Earth's time.
These ornamental fish from various civilizations, while possessing beautiful appearances, also have extremely fragile vitality.
Insufficient lighting? Unsuitable temperature? Fluctuations in water quality?
I'm sorry, I'll die right here and now.
then……
That's how we ended up in the current situation.
With a faint smile on her lips, Su Yutong walked briskly towards the living room.
...
Inside the living room.
Lu Yongchang looked helplessly at Lu Guotao, who was in his fifties with gray hair, while Zhou Qingru stood beside him with a slightly mocking smile.
On one side of the living room is a huge fish tank.
Inside the aquarium, several brightly colored and uniquely shaped exotic fish were "silently" lying at the bottom, showing no signs of life.
Clearly, this batch of fish has followed the same path as the previous hundreds of batches.
"I told you, Lao Lü, you're just not cut out for fish farming. Why do you have to mess with these fish?"
"Tell me, how many batches of fish have you changed by now?"
"Not a single one survived."
Faced with his wife's teasing, Lü Guotao moved his lips slightly, muttering softly with a hint of resentment, "It's definitely not my fault..."
"The water temperature and quality clearly meet the standards..."
"Light! It must be light!"
As if he had just thought of something, Lü Guotao suddenly turned his gaze to Lü Yongchang beside him: "Yongchang!"
Lu Yongchang, who was examining the holographic parameters on the fish tank, couldn't help but shudder.
That's it, it probably's nothing good.
As expected.
The next second, Lü Guotao's voice rang out: "Yongchang, I heard..."
"Does the Academy of Sciences have high-powered stellar spectrometer lamps?"
"or……"
Lu Yongchang looked at Lu Guotao with a helpless expression: "Dad, that thing isn't for fish tanks."
"Those spectrometer lamps are powerful enough to illuminate an asteroid, you're saying that..."
Lu Guotao shook his head with some regret, then turned his gaze back to the fish tank beside him, muttering to himself, "So... what exactly is the reason?"
"professor."
An electronically synthesized voice announced: "Based on aquarium monitoring data over the past 24 hours, the cause of death for this batch of ornamental fish is overfeeding."
"..."
Silence filled the entire living room.
Lu Yongchang glanced at Lu Guotao beside him with a strange expression: "Dad, how much did you... feed him?"
"Not...not many?"
Lu Guotao chuckled and pointed to the empty can next to him: "Just a little bit, really just a little bit."
Lü Yongchang: "..."
Su Yutong: "..."
Zhou Qingru: "..."
