Chapter 29 "Why Me" Part [-]

Ten floors underground.

I lit up and took a puff of the cigarette. In addition to the smoke, there was also a chill here in my lungs.

After taking only one puff, I threw the cigarette to the ground and stamped it out.

"I'll come, but I need an assistant." I said calmly.

"No problem. Although none of the people I brought here did not get A's in their simulations, they are all geniuses in various fields," the professor said.

I nodded helplessly: "Who has better hands-on skills?"

Only two of a dozen people raised their hands.

I nodded and said, "Everyone except these two should leave."

For the remaining dozen people, you look at me and I look at you.

No one has any intention of leaving.

The professor waved his hand and said, "Follow what he wants."

Everyone evacuated the negative tenth floor one after another.

Only me and two other assistants were left.

I smiled and said, "Tell me about the situation."

An assistant said solemnly: "There are a total of 63 frozen human bodies here, [-] of which are women. After repeated screening with X-rays, we only found that two of them had suspected egg cells in their uteruses."

I pointed to the two sealed cabins in front of me and said, "Are these two?"

The assistant nodded.

I took a look at the utensils around me, and they were all available.

I thought for a moment and said, "Let's take them one by one and sterilize them first. I'll open the sealed chamber and then defrost them. We have about 5 minutes to take out the eggs, so don't rush."

After I finished speaking, I opened a can of sterilizing gas, and then the gas spread throughout the room.

The simple sterile room is ready.

I directed the two assistants to lower the first sealed cabin. When I lowered it, I found that the power light of the sealed cabin was still on.

It seems to be a nuclear-powered sealed cabin.

I pressed the open button, and liquid nitrogen poured out from the holes on both sides.

Then the mechanical hatch opened.

A naked female body appears before us.

This is a woman?
It's really different from what's in the textbook.

The assistants on both sides were indeed stunned.

"Okay, let's do it." I pressed the unfreeze button of the sealed cabin again.

Instantly, the sealed cabin began to warm up, and I pointed the knife at the woman's lower body.

Since I am only removing the eggs, I will not preserve the integrity of the body.

This way it's actually much simpler, so it's not complicated.

The knife cut open the lower body, which was of course very hard.

Because the body had not completely thawed, I saw the entire uterus.

It seemed to be similar to the computer simulation, so I started to cut open the uterus.

"Ready a thousand times magnifying glass." I shouted.

The assistant immediately put a magnifying glass on my eyes, and the electronic magnifying glass displayed what I saw on the screen and recorded it.

I started looking for eggs.

Wait, black cells appeared in front of my eyes.

I was lost in thought.

"Drainer," I shouted.

Another assistant handed over the suction device.

I aimed at the small black flesh and pressed the suction button.

Then the eyes withdrew from the magnifying glass and said: "This should not be an egg cell."

"Indeed, but what is the black thing?" the assistant said.

They looked at the black cells being sucked out through the magnifying glass monitor on the side.

I thought about it and said, "This could be cancer cells."

After that, I cut open the entire ovary, and it was already rotten and diseased inside.

Of course these are not visible under X-rays, but they are clearly visible after incision.

"Did any of you bring a data cable?" I asked helplessly.

"I have? Is your phone battery out of battery?" an assistant said.

"No, I want to see the data in the sealed cabin." I said.

After taking the data cable and connecting it to the mobile phone, I searched for a long time on the sealed cabin and found a small jack.

There is only one file in the sealed cabin.

Full of English.

I translated it online.

(My name is Anna, a terminal uterine cancer patient.

I chose cryonics because my husband and I both wanted to have a child of our own, but I had uterine cancer.

My husband and I heard that cryonics could keep oneself like this into the future.

So we broke the bank and chose to freeze my husband and I.

I hope that in the future medicine will be advanced enough to wake me and my husband up.And it would cure my cancer so that my husband and I could have a healthy child. )
I shivered after reading it. I don't know whether it was because of the cold or the feeling.

I sent the video of the surgery to the professor along with this document, and then wrote: Rest for 10 minutes, and then I will continue the surgery on the next patient.

One minute later, the professor only replied with two words: continue.

In order to prevent things from happening again.

I plugged the cable into the second capsule.

There is also only one file in it.

The header is UBS, followed by two strings of numbers, one long and one short.

Below is another sentence in English, after translation.

(Are you able to live forever? If so, this money should be enough to resurrect me, right? If not, treat it as a deposit. I will have more money to give you after my resurrection, as long as it can resurrect me and make me immortal.)
I continued online and entered UBS, which was indeed the abbreviation for Swiss Bank.

So the two strings of numbers are the account password?
I logged into this account.

The balance is zero.

I looked through the entry and exit records, and the last entry was from 200 years ago.

It was taken out, one zero, two zeros, three zeros.

A total of 20 billion, I counted three times in a row.

It seems that not only was his life defrauded, but his money was also defrauded.

The two assistants looked at the dissected female body in a daze.

I smiled bitterly and said, "It's time to start work."

He lowered it down again and opened the sealed cabin. The woman inside was breathtakingly beautiful.

But now it's just a corpse in the United States.

Repeating the same steps again, this time the eggs were successfully removed from the rich woman's body.

But I know that the probability of resurrecting this egg is extremely low.

This egg is not viable at all, because frozen eggs can only be stored for 15 years using today's science.

Eggs frozen 200 years ago did not have adequate preservation technology.

It's really difficult to revive it.

I really don’t know what’s inside the egg from 200 years ago.

He opened the door to the minus tenth floor and handed the test tube to the professor.

That's how things ended.

Two months later, I was promoted.

In the laboratory, of course, there was nothing to do all day long.

What's relaxing is that I no longer have to deliver coffee to the professor.

There is no further news of which egg.

The first words of a government work contract are strict confidentiality.

So I didn't tell anyone about it.

On the weekend off, the phone rang again.

It was the professor who called.

"Xiao Wei, come to C State Prison. Bring two cups of coffee and one cup with extra sugar." The professor hung up the phone after saying that.

I was stunned.

prison?Why should I go?

Did the egg extraction fail?You want to take me to jail?

Won't you come and catch me?Let me go in by myself and bring coffee?

"I'm obviously already a scientific researcher, not an assistant? Why me?" I said helplessly to myself.

There is only one prison in three states, in Area C.

In an era of affluence, the crime rate is indeed pitifully low.

But there are always desperate people who make mistakes.

The prison in State C is in the wilderness, not far from my place.

It took 4 minutes to arrive by motorcycle, so I brought two cups of coffee and three candy bars.

On the outskirts of State C, a huge wall blocked the ground.

This is the last prison on earth.

The safest and most reliable.

I called the professor's number again because I couldn't get in alone.

Two soldiers stood solemnly at the gate. The submachine guns in their hands made my hair stand on end.

The professor didn't answer the phone. After a few minutes, he came out and took the coffee and candy bars I brought.

"Professor, it's okay, I'm leaving." I said.

"If you have something to do, come in with me. There's another glass for you," the professor said.

I glanced at the coffee and took a helpless sip, then followed the professor in.

"Professor, why are you here?" I said.

"Because the egg you extracted failed." The professor said.

I shivered all over and turned to look at the door.

The soldiers held submachine guns and slowly closed the door.
