Chapter 126, Benefiting Humanity~
"A-choo!" Kong Xiyan touched her nose and sneezed: "Who is thinking about me?"
"It's not me." Luo Zhenxuan, who was ironing clothes, gave her a sidelong glance: "I've told you many times that you must iron and hang up your washed clothes immediately! If you just throw them around randomly, they won't look good at all when you wear them!"
"Yes, yes... I will remember it." Kong Xiyan leaned on the soft back of the sofa, supporting her chin with one hand, her eyes lazily falling on Luo Zhenxuan.
Ever since they met, this Luo Lao San's fashion sense is indeed impeccable.
The casual clothes that seemed casual when we first met him actually fit him well and looked neat.
Even when Luo Lao San was only wearing those white silk trousers and a delicate chain on the ship last time, he only made people feel lustful, but not at all messy and sloppy.
"Why are you looking at me?" Luo Zhenxuan and Kong Xiyan looked at each other: "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Kong Xiyan looked away: "I was just distracted."
Seeing this, Luo Zhenxuan curled the corners of his lips, lowered his eyes, and smiled in his eyes.
If she likes to watch it, then she can watch it. He didn't stop her.
"I'll order three meals for you tomorrow." Kong Xiyan said as if she remembered something, "I have to go out early tomorrow morning."
"Where are you going?" Luo Zhenxuan shook the ironed clothes. "Doesn't school start the day after tomorrow?"
"I have to go back to the No. 3 Bioengineering Laboratory of Beijing University tomorrow morning. I have a project to launch." Kong Xiyan said casually, "I also have to go to the National Museum in the afternoon to check on the exhibition and security."
"The National Museum? Are you afraid that those people will target the National Museum?" Luo Zhenxuan's mouth twitched. How dare they do such a thing?
"Even if they don't have the guts, they'll still come and take a look." Kong Xiyan curled her lips. "There's a phenomenon in criminal psychology that no matter what type of criminal, they often have an irresistible urge to return to the crime scene, or to return to the evidence."
"Is it really okay for you to say that about yourself?"
"The people from the Aphrodite will definitely think of taking advantage of this and catching the thief." Kong Xiyan glanced at Luo Zhenxuan. "If that's the case, then why don't I take advantage of this and find out who these mysterious people from the Aphrodite are?"
After hearing Kong Xiyan's explanation, Luo Zhenxuan also understood. He opened his mouth and finally said only one sentence: "Be careful."
If possible, he also wanted to go with Kong Xiyan.
It’s a pity that this is the capital, and he cannot show up for the time being. Otherwise, if the Luo family notices any disturbance, not to mention his own safety, Kong Xiyan might also be dragged into the vortex of danger.
"Don't worry." Kong Xiyan gave Luo Zhenxuan a relieved smile.
The next morning, Kong Xiyan left home and ordered soy milk, fried dough sticks and meat buns for Luo Zhenxuan before leaving.
As soon as Kong Xiyan arrived at the No. 3 Bioengineering Laboratory of Jingcheng University, she was surrounded by several people.
"Senior Kong! Are you planning to launch a new experiment again?"
"Yeah." Kong Xiyan pointed to the whiteboard behind her: "Isn't it written on it?"
"Senior Kong, your strength is obvious to all. Whenever someone's experiment has problems, you can always spot the key points at a glance. With just a few words, everyone benefits greatly. But... your own experiments..."
"What happened to my experiment?" Kong Xiyan blinked: "Didn't it succeed?"
"Success! Massive success! Every experimental project was a complete success! But! None of them worked!" The person who answered the phone twitched his lips. "I didn't even dare tell anyone, lest they spread rumors that you were trying to destroy the world!"
"How can it be so exaggerated?" Kong Xiyan curled the corners of her mouth downwards: "I just want to study something that interests me!"
"Cancer cells, cold-resistant mosquitoes, glow-in-the-dark cockroaches..." Everyone looked at them with mixed emotions. "Senior Kong, could you please research something less anti-human? You clearly have the talent to benefit humanity, so why are you choosing to destroy it?"
"I don't want to destroy humanity." Kong Xiyan blinked. This was a misunderstanding of her! It was a false rumor!
"Senior Kong, I'm asking you for help! Let's set up a more normal project this time! We all support you!" The girl on the left clasped her hands together and looked at Kong Xiyan eagerly.
"Well..." Kong Xiyan was interrupted before she could finish her words.
"Senior Kong, Professor Du wants you to go to his office."
"Okay, I'll be right there." Kong Xiyan finally left the crowd surrounding her and went straight to Professor Du's office. She knocked twice and went in. "Professor Du, are you looking for me?"
"I've read your project proposal." Professor Du's expression was complicated. "I have no doubt about your knowledge and skills."
"Is there a problem with funding?" Kong Xiyan looked at Professor Du.
"The funding you requested is very reasonable." Professor Du took a deep breath. "But your project is very similar to the human gene editing technology that the country previously banned... Xiyan, are you finally going to take action against humans? Is there nothing in this world worth your attention?"
"Why do you all think I want to destroy the world?" Kong Xiyan crossed her arms and looked very complicated: "What I'm researching is clearly something that will benefit mankind!"
"Then explain to me, your previous cancer cell experiment, how did it benefit humanity? The cancer cells you studied weren't even effective with targeted drugs. What were you trying to do? I didn't even dare report this to you!"
"Cells are the basic units of the human body, and only cancer cells can proliferate indefinitely. If I can unlock the secret of cancer cell proliferation, then human immortality will no longer be just a myth or a delusion." Kong Xiyan spread her hands and said, "Wouldn't this benefit humanity?"
"So what's up with that cold-resistant mosquito of yours!"
"That's because there have long been predictions of the impending Little and Big Ice Ages. If I could develop cold-resistant and long-lived mosquitoes, and if they could be used on humans, even if a bitter winter apocalypse really did occur in the future, humans would be able to adapt, reproduce, and develop at the fastest possible speed. Wouldn't that be a boon to humanity?"
"What about glow-in-the-dark cockroaches? Why? Do you want to enrich human diversity? Develop glow-in-the-dark humans?"
"Eh... Professor Du, what are you talking about? It's so disgusting!" Kong Xiyan's mouth twitched: "Cockroaches are creatures from 300 million years ago. According to fossil evidence, primitive cockroaches are from the same era as dinosaurs, or even earlier than dinosaurs!
With such strong vitality, cockroaches will definitely survive even when facing doomsday!
In this way, I can fully improve the taste and texture of cockroaches, so that humans have a last emergency food option!
And if the sky is covered with dark clouds and the power goes out at that time, it will be easy to catch the luminous cockroaches!
I’m doing this for the future of mankind!”
"If you keep talking, I'm almost believing it!" Professor Du glared at Kong Xiyan. "You're always thinking about the end of the world. Why can't you think about the present? There are so many problems waiting for you. If you can use your abilities in the right way, how many people can you save?"
"No." Kong Xiyan suddenly became serious. "Technology is a double-edged sword. What I study may not necessarily be used to save humanity. It is more likely to be used for destruction. If that's the case, I might as well study mosquitoes and cockroaches."
"What about you this time?" Professor Du sighed. "What are you going to do this time?"
"This time..." Kong Xiyan smiled: "For the benefit of mankind~"
"I'm listening to your nonsense!"
…
At the Beijing airport, Zhong Yangyang walked out with a backpack.
She came back a day early just to give her sister a surprise: "I wonder if my sister has been well behaved these days~"
