“Mian, why don’t you like this place? Together, we can make lots of interesting people… At least, I can resurrect dead people. No one can do it, not even your father.”
Obviously, Lin Ya was very proud of her human cloning technology.
“Dr. Lin Ya, can you tell me what’s the normal life expectancy of a human being?” Huo Mian asked a biology question.
Not knowing why Huo Mian asked the question, Lin Ya still answered amiably, “Child, this is an easy question for me. I’m an expert in this area. Verified by the Guinness World Records, the person who lived the longest in the world is a woman from a village in South Africa. Her name was Molockemo. She was born in 1874 and died in 2008 when she was 134 years old.”
Huo Mian nodded. “Good. It means the limit for a human’s life expectancy is 134 years and you, Dr. Lin Ya, have the ambition to clone people after they’re dead…”
“Isn’t it a great technology?” Lin Ya was excited.
“In my eyes, it’s an anti-human technology that goes against nature… Following life cycles and the natural rules are the way we should live… Nature has its own patterns and we’re only a species on the earth, just like fish and birds… So, don’t think you can do things against nature… You’ll be punished. My dear Great Dr. Lin Ya, have you found the deadly weaknesses in your successful experimental products?”
Hearing Huo Mian’s words, Lin Ya’s expression changed slightly, which gave Huo Mian the answer she needed.
“You don’t have to say it, but I know the answer… I hope you stop doing these unnatural things… From birth to death, we must follow natural rules… Don’t think you can change them…”
“So, Mian, you don’t want to bring your friend Huo Siqian back to life? You want him to disappear from your memory forever? He’ll always be a pile of b.l.o.o.d.y pieces in your mind?”
Lin Ya tried again to hit Huo Mian’s raw nerve by talking about Huo Siqian.
But unfortunately…
“I’m sorry, Dr. Lin Ya, but I don’t need him to come back to life… Strictly speaking, you can’t bring him back to life. There’s only one Huo Siqian and he is dead, but I’ll remember him. Even if you resurrected him, he’d only be a replica with his face. I believe he wouldn’t like to live in this way… He’s dead and we must give him peace. I hope you won’t make more monsters by cloning dead people.”
Huo Mian’s words stunned Lin Ya…
Huo Mian had thought her words would infuriate Lin Ya, but to her surprise, Lin Ya wasn’t angry; she didn’t speak for a long time.
Then she called out, “Messiah.”
“Yes, Master.”
“I’m tired. Take her back to her room.”
“Yes.”
After Huo Mian was gone, Lin Ya sat on the chair, supporting her head with one hand; she was thoughtful.
In a little while, Messiah came back.
Lin Ya pointed at the dumplings on the table. “Cook the dumplings and deliver them to her.”
“Yes, Master.”
Carefully, Messiah picked up the dumplings from the table one by one.
Lin Ya said in a low voice, “Messiah, she’s an extraordinary child… She’s highly intelligent and very resourceful… She can do great things.”
“She has your good genes, Master.”
“She takes after me, right?” Lin Ya smiled.
