Chapter 1036 Artificially modified genes

"Yesterday, the Xiashu Space Base, together with the World Health Organization and representatives from various countries, held an emergency meeting on the 'Class A Martian bacteria'."

"According to interviews, the main reason for this emergency meeting was a serious accident in which 'Class A Martian bacteria' leaked out of the Yuehuatai outpost scientific research base and infected scientific researchers and staff. This Martian microbial leak has now caused Seven scientific researchers and five base staff were infected.”

"At present, the Yuehuatai Scientific Research Base has taken emergency measures to isolate the twelve infected personnel, and launched a series of air purification, sterilization, physical isolation and other actions."

"According to our reporter's understanding, the cause of this major biosafety accident was that Constance Minik, a professor of exobiology from the Georgia Institute of Technology in the United States, seriously violated experimental regulations."

"Professor Constance Minick is currently under control, and China is conducting follow-up investigations into related leaks."

"It is understood that Professor Constance Minik deliberately leaked Category A Martian bacteria from the biosafety laboratory this time. We do not rule out the possibility of someone behind it."

"Our reporters are following the reports for you."

On the second day of the emergency meeting, a piece of news directly bombarded the world.

Media from various countries rushed to report on the spread of Martian bacterial infection at the lunar scientific research base, causing infections among scientific researchers and staff.

Relevant news quickly aroused discussions around the world.

For a time, this alien biology professor from the Georgia Institute of Technology in the United States was immediately searched on major Internet platforms.

[Damn it, what kind of Gou Ba pit comparison is this? 】

[No, is this person mentally ill? Deliberately leaking Martian bacteria? ? ? ? 】

[There is no instruction from the United States behind this, I don’t believe anything you say! 】

[This country is simply disgusting. If I had known better, I shouldn’t have allowed their people to participate in the research of life on Mars! It's fine now. Everyone else in the base has been infected. The existence of the United States is a cancer to the world! 】

[Fuck, what kind of idiot is this? Don’t you risk your own life and also harm other people in the entire scientific research base? 】

[Fortunately, Academician Xu put the research base on the moon. If it were on the earth, if this virus from Mars was leaked, it would be another global catastrophe, and maybe even human beings would become extinct. It's not impossible. 】

[According to incomplete statistics, in the past ten years, there have been more than 16,000 virus leaks in biosafety laboratories in the United States! 】

When the news spread that Professor Constance Minik deliberately leaked Category A Martian bacteria from the biosafety laboratory on the moon base, almost everyone on the major social platforms on the Internet was paying tribute to the beauty of the US government behind him. statement.

In the eyes of most people, how could this biology professor have done such a thing without the instigation of the US government behind his back.

After all, these microbial bacteria from Mars may be fatal to humans. Even if they are not fatal, no one knows what the consequences of infecting them will be.

Maybe it can't be cured and you will be permanently disabled. It may be a disease more painful than death.

Not to mention domestic platforms such as scarf and Douyin, there are also many American netizens on Facebook, Twitter and other software in the United States questioning the truth of this matter and wondering whether the government is behind all this.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the Pacific Coast.

1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington, United States.

A certain CEO with a cool hairstyle was staring at his subordinates with a furious look on his face, and his roar could be heard clearly through the corridor with a thick door.

"Who can tell me? What is going on?"

"Who arranged what happened to Constance Minick!?"

"Damn it? Who is this idiot who is so blatant? Is his head full of shit? Shet!"

For him, he was angry not only about what happened at the moon base, but also because the United States was now excluded from scientific research projects on life on Mars.

It's even more because he didn't know about it from beginning to end.

This made him feel that his power had been completely eclipsed. He, the president of the United States, had no idea about such a major event.

Looking at the angry boss, several people standing in the office lowered their heads and kept silent, for fear that they would attract attention without paying attention.

Especially Director Bill Nelson of NASA, his face was almost covered with saliva and he looked embarrassed.

However, unlike the angry Mr. T, the director of NASA, who will leave his post in less than two months, now has a more gloomy face.

He probably knew who was causing trouble.

However, he did not expect that the other party would be so bold.

Infecting the scientific researchers and medical personnel in the entire Yuehuatai base, I have to say that when it comes to cruelty, it is the old capital or plutocrats who are more cruel.

At least he or NASA cannot do such a thing.

Although many times they will choose unscrupulous behaviors for their own goals, but before doing these things, they will also think about the impact these things will have.

And those people, in order to achieve their own goals, don't care about any consequences at all.

Just like this time, in the research of Class A Mars bacteria, NASA could not do such a thing that everyone in the base was infected after they had already participated in it.

Because the impact of this incident was too bad.

You know, there are not only their own scientific researchers and medical personnel in the United States, but also members of all major countries in the world, such as China, the European Union, Tsarist Russia, Japan and South Korea.

Infecting other members of this international cooperation project means that they are standing on the opposite side of the world.

Such serious consequences are difficult for NASA, let alone the authorities to accept.

However, those old-fashioned chaebols have almost no scruples when doing these things.

The other party used their aerospace capabilities to disrupt the scientific research project of Martian life, and even made NASA and the authorities bear the blame.

The gloom on his face seemed to freeze into ice, and Bill Nelson suddenly thought of another more terrible thing.

Perhaps Johnson \u0026 Johnson's people may have brought Class A Mars bacteria back to Earth through this infection incident.

Although they don't know what the other party is going to do, this is definitely not a good thing for them.

With the strong infection ability of this kind of Martian microorganisms and the unknown changes it causes to humans, if there is a risk of leakage, the United States and even the world may face a huge storm.

Thinking of this, Bill Nelson subconsciously woke up from his meditation.

This time, both NASA and SpaceX were used by the other party.

He quickly raised his head and looked at the angry boss, and said in a low voice: "We were used!"

"What?"

The boss, who was still questioning what was going on, didn't react for a while and asked subconsciously.

Taking a deep breath, Bill Nelson quickly explained, "It's Johnson!"

"More than a month ago, the people of Johnson \u0026 Johnson found NASA and bought a manned lunar landing operation from NASA. They sent their people to the moon via the Endurance space shuttle, and the landing target was the Aitken Basin at the south pole of the moon."

"We worked with SpaceX to complete this project worth 120 million dollars, but we didn't expect the other party to make such a big mess for us."

Hearing the explanation of Director Bill, Mr. T, who had a very cool hairstyle, frowned and asked, "Does this have anything to do with the leakage and infection of Mars bacteria in the lunar base?"

"It should be someone they arranged among those who participated in the Class A Mars bacteria research project."

After thinking for a while, Bill Nelson quickly said, "If I'm not mistaken, the purpose of Johnson \u0026 Johnson should be those Martian microorganisms and bacteria!"

"And if there is no accident, they should have succeeded."

Hearing this, several senior officials who were meeting in the office were stunned.

Staring at Bill Nelson, the boss asked with serious eyes: "You mean, Johnson \u0026 Johnson, who asked you to buy the manned lunar landing project, tried to steal those Martian lives from the Chinese?"

No mistakes!

Director Nelson nodded and said: "Apart from these Martian lives, I can't guess what else on the moon can attract Johnson \u0026 Johnson."

"Although I don't know how they did it, from the current situation, the other party has a high probability of doing it."

"And, this black pot has been taken by us."

After listening to the explanation of the director of NASA, the boss stared at him with a bad face and said: "Don't you do any investigation before accepting the project? And why don't you report that Johnson \u0026 Johnson is carrying out the manned lunar landing project?"

Hearing the accusation, Bill Nelson smiled bitterly. Investigation? How do they investigate?

Before they really reveal their purpose, it is difficult for them to really know the other party's thoughts.

Normally, it is impossible to refuse this business, right?

Especially for NASA, which lost the space race and surrendered to China, and had at least half of its funding cut, the 120 million USD project is undoubtedly a big project.

For them who are short of money, this is even more difficult to refuse.

As for the report, although they lost to China in the last space race, it is undeniable that their aerospace technology has also been improved again in the competition.

Especially with the restart of the space shuttle, it is not too difficult for them to land a man on the moon.

Before officially deciding to admit defeat, NASA has been engaged in various aerospace activities, and manned moon landing is the focus of the focus.

Negotiating aerospace cooperation with other companies is itself an internal matter of NASA, and it does not need to be reported to the White House.

This is just like Xinghai Research Institute received an order to send people to the moon for tourism, and it can make its own decisions.

Taking a deep breath, Bill Nelson said, "The key now is how we should solve this matter. NASA and the authorities should not bear the blame."

"I suggest throwing Johnson \u0026 Johnson out to face the other party's anger."

At the same time, the staff in the office suddenly said, "Maybe this is an opportunity, if we use it well."

Hearing this, everyone looked over.

The aide organized his words, scanned the crowd, and finally landed on his master, and then said: "You are all my own people, I will speak frankly."

"It is undeniable that the United States is made up of capital, but for the White House, and even for the entire United States, these chaebol groups are like termites that suck blood on their bodies."

"Especially for those who are not on the same side as us, giving them some blows can more effectively consolidate our position than simply appeasing and compromising."

"The infection of Mars bacteria in the lunar base is an opportunity. Their hands are too long."

"If we ourselves are unable to strike them, it may be a good choice for our opponents to take action."

Hearing the words of the aide, Mr. T fell into deep thought.

Where there are people, there are interests, collusion, and parties. The United States is not a monolithic entity, especially for the Ansa Group and the Jewish Group, the two sides are even more opposed to each other.

If they can strike each other, neither side will give up.

At the same time, on the other side.

Jinling, Xiashu Aerospace Base

The investigation into the Class A Mars bacteria leakage and infection incident at the Yuehuatai Research Base is still ongoing. In the office of Academician Chang Huaxiang, Xu Chuan is discussing with him how to solve this problem.

For them, the most important thing at present is to solve the problem of infection.

Judging from the strong infectivity and vitality of this Mars bacteria, the current lunar research base has become a "disaster area". I am afraid that it is only a matter of time before everyone in the entire base is infected.

If you want to talk about the most effective solution, there is no doubt that it is to abandon all the people in the Yuehuatai Research Base directly, so that the Mars bacteria can be 100% killed.

But they can't do this. First of all, these are more than a hundred lives, not a hundred mice, which can be abandoned just by saying so.

And this approach has no meaning for them. Mars is there, and they will have to face it sooner or later.

Giving up is not Xu Chuan's character. Finding and solving problems is the key.

While discussing, the door of the office was knocked, and then Professor Chen Wenzhe of the Institute of Microbiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences walked in hurriedly.

"Academician Xu, Academician Chang, the experimental data on the genetic structure analysis of Class A Martian bacteria has come out."

"There is a major discovery!"

Stop talking, Xu Chuan looked over and quickly asked: "What's the situation?"

Take a deep breath, Professor Chen Wenzhe handed over the report file he brought, and said quickly and concisely: "Through the experimental data of genetic structure analysis, we found that the genetic genes of this Class A Martian bacteria are very likely to have been artificially modified!"

"Here, here, and this section of the gene all have obvious signs of cutting and recombination. Its genetic information structure is completely different from the genetic structure of the other two Martian microorganisms!"

"Your original guess was really right!"

"These Martian life forms, at least this Class A Martian bacteria that can infect humans, are very likely to be artificially created!"
