Make man

Be in the limelight, act in fashion dramas, appear as a guest on entertainment shows, and even be interviewed by fashion magazines!He has already set foot in the entertainment circle, how can he look like a scholar?I personally don't believe that such a person will make any academic contributions. "

The whispers in the gallery grew louder.The defense lawyer continued to question.

"Besides speculation, do you have actual evidence?"

Polman shook his head.

"I just proved that Professor Chen can benefit a lot from the unfortunate death of Professor Wagundi, whether it is economic or academic research, and the facts have proved this."

The judge frowned.The defense attorney smiled confidently, apparently thinking it would be easy to refute the testimony.Someone in the auditorium said: "It's too far-fetched!"

Chen Ou glanced at the auditorium, and saw an audience he hadn't expected to appear here.The manager of the bank's loan business kept wiping the sweat on his forehead with a paper towel, his face full of anxiety.Suddenly, the intentions of this court trial became clear.

The Lewis Group is not going to send him to prison, but to delay the time to market the drug as much as possible.Drugs with patent disputes cannot be registered.The Lewis Group wants to bankrupt the Institute.

Outside the courtroom, Charles walked back and forth anxiously.Suddenly, the phone rang, and he quickly connected it.

"Don't get involved in this matter anymore, come back immediately." On the screen, the father, who has always been steadfast, ordered.Shire's father is a member of the Louis Groupe board.

"Chen is my friend. Father, don't stand with James anymore. He is too aggressive and will ruin the family business." Charles begged.

"The group is determined to get all the shares of the research institute, and James is lobbying the bank to refuse to extend the loan," Shire's father advised him, "The professor is 82 years old this year, and his influence is not as good as before. The new Minister of Health believes that his genetic Theories and theories have long been outdated. No one will save the institute. Besides, even if the group takes over the institute, it will not interfere with Professor Chen’s work. On the contrary, we will provide more abundant funds to allow him to carry out research freely.”

Charles hung up the phone.

After not knowing how many times the phone rang, Charles finally got the call he wanted to answer, which was Wang Rong's number.

"Tell Nice," said Charles hurriedly, "Chen Ou is in big trouble. The bank is pressing for debts, the research institute is about to go bankrupt, and Chen Ou is being prosecuted. Although the charges are far-fetched, his reputation will definitely be damaged. The professor's health is deteriorating. The doctor said that it is almost impossible for him to survive this year. And Suzanne..." He choked, remembering that when he was a tutor in Nice, he insisted on getting a dog out of selfishness. Chen Ou found a golden retriever for him. means to name a male dog Suzanne.

For so many years, Chen Ou has been his friend and brother.It is impossible for him to abandon Chen Ou at this time.

"What's the matter with Suzanne?" a deep voice asked, a hand on his shoulder.

Charles turned his head and embraced Nice.

Compared with five years ago, Nice has grown taller, his skin is tanned, and his full shoulder muscles almost burst his shirt.He was wearing a pair of jeans, the hem of his shirt was tucked into his trousers, and his tight belly was like a rock, slightly sunken inward.

But what has changed the most is not his figure, but his appearance.He was no longer the willful and enthusiastic wild child five years ago, although his eyes were still burning with small flames, showing his sincere joy to see Charles again, but his facial muscles did not move, only the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, which was regarded as a smile.His eyes were too piercing for a young man of twenty-two, and Charles felt they were hardly friendly glances.

Nice let go of Charles: "Wang Rong said that Chen Ou was in trouble, and I took a long vacation."

"Be careful that Chen Ou will beat you up first. He said that it seems that the professor has no chance to see you before he dies." Charles said, and began to briefly introduce the case.

"I need to make some preparations first." Nice said briefly, hiding the waves in his eyes so well that Charles felt that he was almost ungrateful.

Inside, the court trial continues.Defense attorneys began questioning the accused.

"Professor Chen, you are accused of intentionally concealing the side effects of the drug. Is this true?"

Chen Ou shook his head.

"Apoheba's side effects show symptoms of increased heart rate, muscle stiffness, or genital engorgement within eight hours of taking the drug."

☆、Chapter 54

The defense lawyer held up a piece of paper: "The five consulted medical experts agreed that the current Apo Hebe side effect description clearly defines the human body's response in the so-called 'sexual excitement' state, which is a relatively scientific description." He said. Turning to Chen Ou, "Ordinary patients do not have common medical knowledge. Why don't you write side effects more easily to understand, so as to prevent some patients from taking drugs by mistake?"

"Apoheba is not an OTC drug and needs to be taken under the guidance of a doctor." Chen Ou replied, "From the beginning of drug design, we never thought that people other than Alzheimer's patients would take this drug by themselves, especially Such a young and bright student as the deceased."

There were painful sobs from the gallery.A white-haired old man was sitting in a wheelchair, shaking his head, tears streaming down his face.Two bailiffs went over and pushed the old man wiping his eyes out of the room.

After a short silence, the defense lawyer continued to question.

"Did Aboheb use the work of the late Professor Wagender?"

"No."

"Please elaborate."

"Professor Wagendi and I belong to different laboratories. Professor Wagendi has shares in the research institute, and he is personally responsible for the laboratory funds, so he does not need to report to the research institute. After his death, all his research projects were suspended. It was replaced with other projects that are completely unrelated to the previous research, and my colleagues can prove this. In short, the research and development of Apo Hebe did not directly use the results of Professor Wagendi. But Apo Hebe is the patented result of the institute. Professor Gendi was a member of the Institute during his lifetime, so it is okay to say that Apohebury has made his contribution.”

"Mr. Polman accuses you of being involved in the murder of Professor Wagundy. Do you have anything to say about that?"

"It's ridiculous and I can't justify what I didn't do. Law and science are all about evidence."

The judge nodded slightly.

Then came cross-examination time.The prosecution lawyer questioned Chen Ou.

"How many shares does Professor Wagender own in the Gene Institute? Who owns the shares after his death?"

"The Institute of Genetics is an independent institution. The articles of association stipulate that the shares held by shareholders shall not be transferred to a third party or inherited by a third party before the signature of other shareholders with voting rights. This is to prevent third parties from intervening in the operation of the Institute by virtue of their capital strength." Chen Ou introduced, "If a shareholder dies unfortunately, the shares held by him will be bought by other shareholders from the family members who have the right to inherit according to the appraised value, or directly inherited by the family members after other shareholders sign and agree, but the family members only enjoy the dividends of the research institute. right to attend shareholder meetings, but not to vote."

"Professor Wagendi holds nearly 20% of the shares of the Institute. According to the articles of association and the agreement he signed with the professor, these shares were acquired by the professor from his heirs after his death. He has no direct descendants, only one distant relative. Acquisition The agreement has been notarized and is legally valid.”

The prosecution attorney holds up a sheet of paper.

"It has been about six years since Professor Wagender's death. According to the assessment of an accounting firm, the value of Professor Wagender's shares has increased by about three times. That is to say, the professor's acquisition of Professor Wagender's shares has at least tripled the profit. "

"Actually, there are not that many." Chen Ou said, feeling anxious when he thought of the sick professor.The professor has been very weak lately, and the doctor is quite sure that he will not live more than a year.This is why he was annoyed with Nice: After the professor fell ill, he contacted Wang Rong several times, hoping that Nice would go home even once.Although the professor didn't say anything, Chen Ou could see that he was thinking about Nice.

"In the past five years, the research institute has adjusted its direction, and is more engaged in basic research. Most of the work has not yet achieved results, let alone transforming into commercial projects to generate value in the short term. The main income of the research institute is patent licensing fees. Due to overseas imitation Due to the impact of pharmaceuticals and domestic patent litigation, the licensing fee has been greatly reduced in recent years, and the current income is less than one-tenth of the previous income.”

The prosecution lawyer's eyes were full of smiles, as if he had discovered Chen Ou's loophole.

"That is to say, the Institute is experiencing financial difficulties. No wonder Professor Chen often participates in commercial activities to seek sponsorship. Under such circumstances, it is understandable that the Institute is eager to launch Apo Hebe to improve income."

Defense attorneys protested.The judge said the protest was effective and reminded the prosecution lawyers to be more direct.The prosecution lawyer shrugged and said: "Next, I would like to ask your honor and the jury members to watch a historical video from Officer Jones who used to serve in the serious crime unit of the regional police station. After Professor Wagender was killed, some She was in charge of investigating the case for a period of time. This video is a record of her reporting the case to her superiors at that time."

The big screen landed silently.The Police Officer Jones from five or six years ago appeared on the screen in his police uniform.

"Professor Wagendi was engaged in an illegal research during his lifetime," Police Officer Jones said on the screen. "He mixed human genes with beast genes to create a new type of creature. He has a large amount of genetic data of the creature in his computer. He is not in the experiment. The laboratory found traces of the creature, and it is impossible to judge whether it is still alive. It is suspected that his death is highly related to the creation of the creature..."

The video was inaudible, and the loud noise from the gallery could not even be suppressed by the judge.Fortunately, the video has finished playing.Now almost all eyes in the room were on Chen Ou.

Chen Ou had been mentally prepared for a long time. As a responsible police officer, Officer Jones would definitely report the discovery to his superiors.She concealed the fact that Nice is an artificial creature, which made Chen Ou very grateful to her.Still, the video makes his situation extraordinarily difficult right now.

"Next witness." To make matters worse, the prosecution attorney's list of witnesses seemed endless.

This witness is the police officer who took over from Officer Jones to search the genetic research institute, and caused Chen Ou a lot of trouble back then.After Wagundy's death became unsolved, he remained at the local police station.With him as the head of the serious crime team, Officer Jones applied to the traffic police department to copy the license plate without saying a word.

The police officer showed the results of the investigation of Wagender's laboratory that year.

"A third-party testing agency has shown that there is a large amount of genetic data stored in Wagundi's work computer, but the existing genetic database has not found cases that are particularly close to these data. Moreover, it is not even possible to confirm whether these genes come from humans or animals. They carry both It has human characteristics, but it is absolutely impossible to be human genes. In the words of the testing agency, this is a strange gene fusion phenomenon. If it is admitted that it happened naturally, it is better to believe that the monkey in the zoo walked down the tree and became a human. "

The judge smacked his lips impatiently.The prosecution lawyer cleared his throat and said, "Our last witness."

Few people turned their eyes to the door, and the audience in the gallery were all whispering.It seems that everyone has concluded that there will be no more shocking evidence than the video just now.Only Chen Ou's heart sank.

This witness is one of his project team leaders. A research project was forcibly terminated by him. He has a lot of opinions on this and has repeatedly asked the professor to come back to preside over the work.But the professor never paid any attention.

The team leader avoided Chen Ou's gaze and raised his hand to swear.As usual, the prosecutor's lawyer asked questions about his name, identity, and relationship with the defendant, and then asked, "What do you think of Apo Hebe?"

The team leader said: "This is an achievement of genius, but it does not belong to the discoveries that science is capable of obtaining at this stage."

"Please elaborate."

"Since Professor Wagendi was killed, Professor Chen ordered to stop all projects in the institute. He recruited many people from outside to comprehensively analyze a newly discovered gene, but never explained its source. Moreover, whenever everyone Stuck in a research dilemma, Professor Chen can always come up with ideas that prove to be correct afterwards, as if he has the gift of prescience."

"Based on your research experience, what do you think this represents?"

"This means," the team leader no longer avoided Chen Ou's glaring, said, "Professor Chen has a very deep understanding of the genetic matrix and its biological characteristics, and this can only be done by close observation. I deduce that Professor Chen participated in the production the creature."

"What's so special about the creature?" the prosecution lawyer asked.

"Its genetic characteristics perfectly match the genetic data in Professor Wagender's computer, so it can be considered to be the same creature." The team leader replied.

"The witness had access to the data in Professor Wagender's computer during the police consultation." The prosecution lawyer said, "Mr. Judge, our consultation with the witness is over."

The defense attorney walked up to the judge and said something in a low voice.The judge announced: "Temporarily adjourn the court session and continue the court session in an hour."

In the auditorium, a reporter from the local media lowered his head and quickly edited the email, with a nervous and excited expression, like a person who came out for a walk out of boredom and accidentally bumped into a door leading to a new world.

☆、Chapter 55

Before the trial was held again, most of the spectators who heard the news were stopped outside the court hall.The bailiff announced that due to the special status of the witnesses who will appear in court next, they will no longer accept those who have nothing to do with the case.

Chen Ou, who stood on the dock again, stared dumbfounded at Niss who came in from the side door calmly and stood on the witness stand, only a few feet away from him.

Observing from the perspective of Charles, Niss has matured, grown up, and is an adult who can be relied on with confidence.But from Chen Ou's greedy eyes, his child has almost become a stranger.He has short hair, a straight waist, and the exposed part of his skin looks like baked wheat bread.His cheeks are thin and sharp, his chin has a little stubble, and his eyes are straight ahead. No one can misunderstand that he is engaged in a career other than a soldier.The child who loved to play tricks and act like a baby and had unspeakable feelings for him was shattered in the phantom of memory.

The judge looked at the things in his hand and nodded slightly: "Due to the special status of the witness, his name will not be disclosed in this court, and he will only be called Captain X. Please let the lawyer directly enter the case."

Defense attorneys began asking questions.

"Captain X, what is your relationship with the defendant?"

Well, he's a captain now.Considering their closeness in the past, now they can only hear the fact of Nice's career progress from strangers, making Chen Ou's tongue slightly sour.However, most young people at this age are still in school, and his children have already earned the rank of captain.

The pride dilutes the bitterness, but the doubts and fears in my heart are getting stronger and stronger.How many dangers did Niss encounter before he could jump from a military student who has not yet graduated to a full-fledged officer in just five years?As far as he knew, the military rank declared by Wang Rong when he entered the Angelo Military Academy was also captain.Although judging from later contact, Wang Rong's real identity should be much higher than this.

Nice's Adam's apple twitched a few times, as if he was struggling to swallow something.

"I have lived in the same family with the defendant for about ten years, but it is not a relationship of adoption and adoption. Legally, we have nothing to do with each other."

No relationship.Chen Ou looked away from Nice's face.

"Captain X, why did you set out to investigate the deceased?"

"The deceased was a student of a military academy, and the military has the responsibility to investigate the cause of his accidental death. I am here as a representative of the military to submit relevant evidence to the court this time."

"Please tell us the military's findings."

"The deceased died of self-overdose of Apoheba. The motive was to use it as a stimulant side effect. In another illegal doping incident pursued by the military, the deceased's name was registered as a long-term customer by the doping seller, proving that the deceased had taken doping. I have submitted the relevant evidence to the court.” Nice replied.

"Lie!" A middle-aged man in the auditorium stood up, his face flushed with anger.The judge stopped him with a stern look, and a bailiff stood beside him.

The defense lawyer continued to ask: "In order to track down this matter, who did you question?"

"The deceased's current girlfriend and ex-girlfriend."

On the big screen, a girl with her hair tied into a high ponytail smiled at the camera.

"I didn't think about that at first, thinking that he just liked tricks, or was influenced by his athlete friends. Later, I realized that he was not good at that, so I tortured my girlfriend even more. When I broke up with him, he was so angry! I Call the police."

"The deceased's ex-girlfriend testified that the deceased had abnormal sexual fetishes," Nice said.

"Objection! The evidence has nothing to do with the facts of the case." The prosecution lawyer protested loudly.

"The protest is invalid. Since it is necessary to prove that the deceased took the drug in order to take advantage of the side effects of Apoheba causing sexual excitement, it is necessary to know whether the motive is sufficient." The judge said.

Nice motioned for the second video.

"Yes, once he tormented me so badly that I reminded him that there was a game the next day, but he said that a healthy sex life would help the game." Another girl said, mentally exhausted, "The results of that game were really good. Yes, he himself was very surprised. But he took the medicine this time, just before he died, and he didn’t come to see me. I knew he had a game the next day, and I was afraid of being tossed again, so I went to my aunt’s house. He couldn’t Follow me to my aunt's house."

"The testimony of the current female partner. Although the prosecution claimed that the deceased had overdosed on Apoheba to treat sexual disorders, this time the deceased was not with the female partner. In fact, he spent the night alone." Nice said.

"He is usually withdrawn and has a bad temper. The coach and other teammates don't like him. He is about to graduate. If he has a better performance in the game, he can find a better job, but his usual training and competition results are mediocre. That game We all thought there must be something weird about winning the award. But the urine test showed no problem.” An athlete said to the camera, with the snow-capped roof of Angelo College in the background.

"Yes, he asked me to write a letter of recommendation, but I declined. Regardless of his grades or personality, he has nothing to recommend." A middle-aged man said to the camera, wearing a club coach jacket. We were stunned. There are very few surprises in track and field. Like the one he did, if for no other reason, it was an extraordinary performance. If it can go further, he has no problem getting a college coaching job."

"Testimony from teammates and coaches that the deceased had an unexpected result in a game. Coincidentally, that game happened to be right after he took Apoheba for the first time, and the testimony of his current female partner also confirmed this. And this time a lot It happened to be on the eve of the competition.” Nice said, “According to the record of the purchase of stimulants found by the military, it can be reasonably speculated that the deceased took Apoheba not to treat sexual disorders, but to improve his health as a stimulant. Match results."

"The military is worried that this is a new type of soft drug, so it sent Apoheba to different laboratories for testing. The results proved that its ingredients do excite people, but it is not addictive, and it will not change the secretion of human hormones in the short term. At present The urine test cannot detect its active ingredients. But of course, with this lesson, the urine test will definitely add the detection of related factors in the future.”

The prosecution lawyer asked questions.

"Captain X, you said that you and the defendant have lived together for ten years, and you and the defendant must have a deep relationship."

Nice's complexion was as firm as a rock.

"I am not testifying in my personal capacity. This time I was ordered by the military to deliver evidence and provide testimony. I suggest you focus on the evidence."

The prosecutor's lawyer shook his head, as if to say, "Many soldiers don't understand the rules."

"I don't understand genetics, biological science, or pharmacology. From the perspective of ordinary people, it is difficult for me to explain that a drug that does not indicate side effects can cause sexual excitement. Compared with a drug that can be used as a stimulant or even a new type of drug, Which one is more harmful to society? Of course, the latter possibility is very small, but this possibility cannot be ruled out." The prosecution lawyer said to Nice amiably.

The judge nodded.

"I don't understand the same thing." The judge said, "The military experiment is just an experiment, and experts in this field need to be consulted. Since one of the most authoritative genetic scientists in the country is now standing in the dock, let's ask another authority Testify in court."

Chen Ou looked out the door in shock, and so did Nice.Their eyes met in the air, and this time they didn't dodge each other.Chen Ou looked suspicious, but Nisi replied that he knew nothing with his eyes.

The professor sat in a wheelchair and slowly entered the court hall from the door.

Compared with five years ago, he is much older.Considering that he was 82 years old this year, "old" is a false proposition.But Nice feels that the professor he sees now is very different from five years ago.His temple hair was much thinner, his face showed an unhealthy bluish-white color, his cheeks were sunken and bony, and only his eyes were still aggressive.Sitting in a wheelchair, he looked like a classical knight about to meet a duel.

Chen Ou moved his body, as if he wanted to meet the professor, but the alert bailiff immediately stopped him.The professor shot him a mocking glance.In an instant, Chen Ou and Nice had an illusion. After the phantom of the court retreated at home, the focus of the scene shifted from the black-robed judge to the professor in the wheelchair.

There was no need to confirm with his eyes, Nisi also felt the aura emanating from Chen Ou's body suddenly changed.Just now he was still a fighter who firmly defended his beliefs, and no one could make him take a step back, but now he suddenly softened, more relaxed and happy, and more at ease.It seems that as long as there is a professor, all the people and things in this world mean to Chen Ou, they are just topics for the next conversation.

The professor moved the wheelchair to the witness stand.A floor was raised from the ground, and the wheelchair was lifted up, so that he could comfortably put his mouth close to the microphone, and also let the audience see his face clearly, like a rock standing still in the waves.

☆、Chapter 56

After asking about the name and occupation as usual, the prosecutor's lawyer asked, "What is your relationship with the defendant?"

The professor glanced at the anxious Chen Ou.Chen Ou also looked at him, his eyes full of condemnation of his self-assertion.In the quiet court hall, the professor heard the roar in Chen Ou's heart, which made the corners of his mouth twitch slightly.

Then he glanced at Ness again.

Nice was probably the only one who didn't look at him.When everyone was looking at the professor, Nice finally got a brief chance to look at Chen Ou.His eyes lit up like fire.

my child.The professor thought, give me a hundred more chances, and I'll still get in front of my kids.

"Chen Ou is the child of my student. I was entrusted by his biological father on his deathbed to supervise him until he went to college. Later, he became my collaborator in research and a partner of the institute. Besides, we There is no legal relationship whatsoever."

The prosecutor's lawyer asked further: "I seem to have the impression that the media has reported that you and the defendant are in an adopted relationship."

The professor said: "The local police station and civil affairs records will prove that I have never gone through the adoption procedures for Chen Ou."

The prosecution lawyer let go of this little episode and started to get to the point.

"Professor, currently Professor Chen is accused of three crimes: first, he is suspected of being a major suspect in the case of Professor Wagender's murder; second, he is suspected of improperly possessing Professor Wagender's research results; third, he is suspected of dereliction of duty, Concealing an important side effect of an experimental drug, resulting in the innocent death of a young student. We would like to ask you, as a genetic expert, to express your opinion on these.”

The professor nodded.

The prosecution lawyer waited for a while, seeing no objection from him, so he continued.

"Let's start with the unfortunate death of a young student. What do you think of the fact that Professor Chen did not clearly label that the drug would cause sexual arousal?"

"First of all, I would like to introduce Alzheimer's disease and its treatment mechanism." The professor's tone was gentle and persuasive, as if facing a young student.

"Alzheimer's disease can be divided into seven stages according to the severity of the disease. Among them, the sixth and seventh stages are the most severe. Patients basically lose their language ability, need help from others to go to the bathroom, or cannot walk at all. At this stage After that, the average life expectancy of patients is two to three years. Since participation in drug experiments must be voluntary, patients in these two stages cannot express their will at all. Therefore, in the previous clinical trials, the research selected patients between one and five stage patients."

"Alzheimer's disease is a primary brain degeneration disease. The cause of the disease is temporarily unknown. The clinical manifestations are mental decline, brain atrophy, and neuron reduction in patients. It often occurs in the elderly over 65 years old. Therefore, treatment drugs to stimulate the cerebral cortex And neuron activity, actively mobilize the patient's own ability to delay the deterioration of the disease, and reverse the disease to a certain extent. From the current point of view, the clinical effect is better than the original goal." The professor talked eloquently.

"However, you still didn't say why the drug didn't state that it would cause sexual excitement." The prosecution lawyer refused to stop.

"Don't you understand?" The professor looked at him, "Apoheba was originally intended to stimulate the patient's cerebral cortex to be more active and the nerves to be more excited. It is inevitable to cause sexual excitement. It can even be said that this is not a side effect at all."

"So, you support Professor Chen's approach and don't describe the side effects of Apoheba causing sexual arousal in patients?" The prosecution lawyer seemed to grasp the key point and became excited.

"No, I have reservations about the current description of the drug's side effects." The professor looked at him kindly.Probably only Chen Ou and Nisi would not misunderstand that expression is actually called "sarcasm".The jury members began to whisper.

"Because that's the main predictable effect. I'm 82 years old, the same age as most Alzheimer's patients. Sexual arousal can make us feel young again. I dare say that no one will refuse this feeling."

A grizzled jury member nodded approvingly.

"However," the professor changed the subject, "just like giving a strong electric current to an endangered patient can make his heart resume beating, but no one would do this to a healthy person, all drugs have their premise, which is what we distinguish OTC Drugs and the purpose of prescription drugs. Apoheba is a prescription drug and needs to be taken according to the doctor's advice. Even a primary school student can understand the consequences of taking drugs indiscriminately."

The prosecution lawyer continued to question.

"From the evidence brought by Captain X, the deceased took Aboheb as a stimulant in order to illegally improve his grades. What do you think of this?"

"As I said just now, the design purpose of Apoheba is to stimulate the cerebral cortex of the patient. I think it is normal to have a stimulant-like effect. I will suggest that the main components of Apoheba be included in the banned product range. It’s made to help the sick, not to cheat.”

The judge nodded.Seeing this, the prosecutor's lawyer stopped pestering her and started the next topic.

"Mr. Polman and a gentleman who is currently working in the institute proved that Professor Chen was suspected of illegally possessing the research results of Professor Wagender during his lifetime and suspected of illegally using genetic technology to manufacture artificial organisms. These signs show that he and Professor Wagender It's about the murder."

The professor thought for a while before speaking slowly, with a much more serious tone than before.

"Chen Ou had nothing to do with Wagundi's death, and had no knowledge of his research during his lifetime."

The prosecuting lawyer smiled indulgently, shaking his head as if to say, "This silly old man!"

"How do you prove it?" he asked.

"Because I killed Wagundi, I used this gun at that time." The professor took out a gun from the wheelchair.

There were exclamations everywhere.Bringing guns is never allowed in the courtroom, which is a serious flouting of the law.But the professor is highly respected and was specially invited to testify. No one would ask him to pass the security scan while sitting in a wheelchair.A bailiff approached him.

"Please listen to me." The professor calmly pointed the gun at himself.The bailiff stopped.

"I will hand over the gun in a while. The police station has an autopsy report, which will verify that the gun is the murder weapon. There is also another piece of evidence that can prove that I am the murderer." The professor bent down and slowly slid a memory card to the foot of the bailiff , the bailiff picked it up.

"This is the institute's secret security video, a 24-hour video. I am the only person in the institute who knows the existence of this system. Therefore, when the police interrogated me afterwards, no one mentioned the video."

A security video starts playing on the big screen.The professor entered the institute in a wheelchair.Twenty minutes later, Chen Ou knocked on the door angrily.

Chen Ou stood on the dock, dumbfounded.Needless to say, this expression alone is a strong proof of his innocence.

Counsel for the prosecution regained his composure and resumed his statutory duties.

"Why did you kill Professor Wagender?" There was still a tremor in his voice, showing that he had not fully recovered from this unusual courtroom accident.Still, this dedication to duty earned an appreciative glance from the professor.

"The first reason is because of his immoral and illegal experiments. He is indeed doing research on the fusion of human and wild animal genes, and he has not stopped after many persuasion." The professor said, "Calling the police cannot stop a scientific researcher from going crazy. As a genetic scientist , I cannot tolerate such extremely dangerous behavior."

"So you admit the existence of man-made monsters?" the prosecution lawyer asked.

"If it hadn't been stopped in time, it would have definitely happened," said the professor.

"How do you prove that there is no such creature?"

"Because it has been six years. There are no reports of abnormal organisms found in this area, and there is no news of the spread of rare diseases. The genetic database shows that the genes of babies born in this area for more than ten years are very normal and can be found in their parents. Genetic factor. Expanding it one step further, there is no similar news in the whole country or the world. The possibility of this kind of artificial creature - if there is one - growing smoothly outside the laboratory environment is very slim."

"So, how do you explain the data in Professor Waganti's computer and Professor Chen's accurate prediction of the experimental results?"

"Before conducting an experiment, researchers first need to know what the purpose is and what the most likely effect is. Generally speaking, we use a virtual system to predict the experimental results." The professor said, "The data in Professor Waganti's computer , shows his prediction of the experimental results. Similarly, Professor Chen’s accurate prediction of the experimental results reflects his outstanding ability as a genetic researcher. As for why the two match perfectly, most of the human genes are Similarly, even 98% can be perfectly matched with chimpanzees, which does not mean that you and I are artificial monsters produced by the fusion of human and chimpanzee genes."

"How do you prove your words?"

"The gene fusion simulation system in Professor Wagender's computer is stored in this memory card, which also stores more than 9000 other running results." The professor slowly slid a memory card across the floor and stopped it between him and the bailiff. on the floor in the middle.The bailiff picked it up.

"We are not medieval savages who don't need to actually kill a person to observe a corpse spot. A leaf blown by the wind, no matter how long it floats in the air, always falls to the ground. Genetic science has its own laws. It is in line with scientific research practice for a trained geneticist to debug a system to predict the prospect of gene fusion. In fact, this work can only be done by a computer. Genes face too many external influences and variables. Manual research , It is difficult to complete our whole life.”

The prosecution lawyer grumbled, as if to say, "still didn't explain why Professor Chen didn't misappropriate Wagundi's results," but the judge stopped him.

"The professor has made it very clear that Wagendi's data is just one of tens of thousands of unconfirmed conjectures, although this has yet to be confirmed. However, the research process of Apoheba submitted by the Institute is very detailed, and the attached All the patented technologies, experimental results, seminar memos, and seminar notes involved are listed. The court has invited experts to identify and conclude that the research process is authentic and the drug is a result of independent research and development.”

The prosecution lawyer shrugged.

"You just said the first reason, so what's the second reason?" he asked.
