Cyber Heroes

Lu Xuanyu vomited all day the next day.

When he woke up on the third day, Lu Xuanyu found a lot of hair on the pillow.

He casually wiped a handful of hair on his head without exerting much effort, and a large amount of hair fell out with just one stroke.

Lu Xuanyu looked at all this and was silent for a moment.

At this time, Ms. Florence happened to come to check. Seeing that Lu Xuanyu cared about her hair, she said, "This is actually a normal side effect. Don't worry too much."

Lu Xuanyu smiled bitterly: "Men of my age have to worry about their hair..."

Perhaps seeing that the patient was not sincere, Florence sat on the chair beside his bed and said: "Most of the drugs injected into you in the past two days are aimed at 'rapidly dividing cells'. This principle is similar to that of chemotherapy. It is very similar to blocking the proliferation process of some cells. The cells that proliferate rapidly are more affected. The cells that divide most vigorously in the human body are nothing more than immune cells, hair follicle cells or cells that have become cancerous."

"In fact, because hair follicle cells divide too vigorously, they are often misjudged as 'cancer cells' by the immune system and attacked. This is also the root cause of many hair loss. The side effects of cancer chemotherapy are 'reduced immunity' and 'hair loss' , because the vigorously dividing immune cells and hair follicle cells are jointly damaged."

"But this drug will not completely kill hair follicle cells. They just change their life cycle under the action of the drug. As long as you stop taking the drug, you will not face hair loss."

Lu Xuanyu pulled up the corners of his mouth, and then said: "Thank you, Ms. Florence... To be honest, I was just..."

He paused for a long time, as if he didn't know what to say. Florence just waited.

Lu Xuanyu said: "Your company often gives me an 'unreal' feeling. Sometimes, I feel like you are making a science fiction movie. Sometimes it is very real. I originally thought I was mentally prepared. But I probably thought... you would definitely solve it perfectly in a very sci-fi way. Then when this change occurred in me, I realized that I was not mentally prepared."

"It's best if you realize this." Florence opened the tablet in her hand and asked, "Just say what you have and don't keep the pressure in your heart."

Lu Xuanyu nodded: "My martial arts teacher taught me in the past and told me to express myself sincerely. To this day, I still don't fully understand the meaning of this sentence. But now I have a new understanding - sincerity may be You can prevent yourself from being harmed by yourself.”

Florence smiled: "It can also prevent us from being hurt - well, honest friend, let's first tell you how you feel today."

After completing the routine consultation, Florence handed the tablet in her hand to Lu Xuanyu and asked him to complete today's cognitive function test.

A week passed quickly. Lu Xuanyu's hair fell out and his eyebrows became very light. Beard... Ever since the accident, his beard has been thin, so there is no need to worry.

After seeing this scene in the video, Lu Xuanyu's wife almost shed tears. On the contrary, Lu Xuanyu comforted his wife and said that everything was getting better.

What really made Lu Xuanyu uncomfortable was the damage to his skin. Lu Xuanyu also received several radiotherapy treatments, which caused slight damage to the thymus, bone marrow and other tissues to completely shut down the immune system. This will inevitably damage the skin. There were slight ulcers on Lu Xuanyu's body surface.

After the tenth day, the physical discomfort became more and more obvious. The feeling of fatigue made it impossible for Lu Xuanyu to even exercise, and his appetite was getting worse and worse. His naps were getting longer and longer.

One day, when he woke up, he smelled a particularly strong smell of disinfectant.

He opened his eyes and saw a strange man sitting at the head of his bed. This guy was wrapped up quite tightly, with his whole body wrapped in a thick cotton jacket. He also wore a huge hood on his head, and his face was almost covered.

Because of his dizziness, Lu Xuanyu felt a little strange at first. The temperature in his ward was always between 26 and 7 degrees Celsius, and even though he was wearing a thin hospital gown, he only felt cool.

But he quickly remembered the "baseline human characteristics" that Xiangshan told him.

This person was originally looking at the tablet in his hand, but he only raised his head after realizing that Lu Xuanyu woke up.

This is a lean foreigner...

Lu Xuanyu instantly remembered this person's face.

Yawgmoth in the 1940s was more famous than Einstein in the 1940s. Even Lu Xuanyu, who "rarely reads science and technology news", recognized him instantly.

Lu Xuanyu instantly felt "flattered". He pushed himself up and wanted to say hello.

Yawgmoth shook his head: "Mr. Lu, you can just lie down. As a researcher, I'm here to see you. Seeing that you didn't wake up, I climbed aboard for a while."

"How embarrassing." Lu Xuanyu said: "Your time must be extremely precious."

"It doesn't matter." Yawgmoth said: "My recent work also includes analyzing your genome data and physical examination data...Florence suggested to me and asked me to take a look at you with my own eyes."

Lu Xuanyu didn't know what to say and scratched his head. He found that he and the great scientists seemed to have little in common.

——Mr. Xiang seems to be able to find common topics with everyone, and he is very powerful...

He thought haphazardly.

"You must be very hard now." Yawgmoth said: "Well, this question may be rude. I want to ask, do you regret not choosing Plan A now?"

Lu Xuanyu almost thought that this scientist meant to "blame" something. Plan A was designed and developed by Mr. Yawgmoth himself, and Yawgmoth himself also used Plan A. He waved his hand: "This... this..."

"I can understand what you mean. It's just that the virus chosen by Plan A makes people feel too scared." Yawgmoth said: "In fact, Plan A also has other elements that are difficult to promote. I have given up on this idea and am currently working on it. Specializing in Plan C, there is even an alternative Plan D. I am just curious, after going through Plan B, if you go back to the time when you made the choice, would you change your preference?"

The process of Plan A is very simple. It is to inject a variety of modified viruses into the recipient to destroy the recipient's immune system, and the recipient's immune system will lose its function. Although this process is slow, it is very peaceful and painless.

As for the follow-up finishing, it is actually very simple.

None of those modified viruses can survive the 50-degree internal environment of a standard human.

"Yawgmoth's Question" sounds like Zhang Kang.
