There are self-service physical examination terminals everywhere. There are two terminals in the activity center of the community. You can also see them outside the old community across the road. Small rooms are lined up in a row on the roadside, just like public toilets. After entering,

The inside is also like a public toilet, with special stools, coat hooks, and handrails, but the space is larger than the cubicles of public toilets. The elderly and disabled people can go in by themselves and complete a full set of examinations with the help of auxiliary facilities. If they must rely on the

If two people go in to help, they can still stand.

Lan Ze didn't want to enter the nearby physical examination terminal.

He got off the underground passage, got on the bus, and went straight to the municipal nursery.

He did not go to the surface registration office last time, but went directly to the underground passage and found the underground entrance of the nursery.

It was afternoon and a working day, and the entrance hall of the underground nursery was quite deserted. The receptionist in front of the high-authority terminal was talking quietly to the guests who asked questions. The other registration terminals were empty.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Lan Ze went directly to the self-service physical examination rooms lined up along the wall and opened one with his bracelet.

The small physical examination room in the nursery is no different from the one outside. They only test common basic items. They also need to take off their clothes first.

The first item tested by the terminal, he saw the display in front of him at a glance.

I have weighed myself at home these past few days, always with my clothes on. Now that I have taken off my clothes, I only weigh 120kg. Gaining body fat is an extremely difficult battle, and any inadvertent exercise may inexplicably consume your hard-earned fat.

Body fat and fat gain mainly rely on talent. If he is not talented enough, it will be particularly uncomfortable to work hard the day after tomorrow.

The operation screen in front of him showed several automatic items in a step-by-step manner. After that, he chose to skip all the items that required manual operation and confirmation. Because of his poor hands, he accidentally skipped all the physical examination items.

Fortunately, I found the germ cell collection notice from the municipal nursery in the to-be-completed list.

The physical examination terminal only provides disposable silicone flexible containers and massage equipment that can be recycled, sterilized, and reused. Follow the instructions displayed on the terminal, and there is no time to feel any unnecessary feelings. Groups of small cells are quickly collected.

Legend has it that in the early modern period, this work was performed by human medical staff in person. They were not gentle and amiable nurses with narrow eyes, but murderous male doctors who played with willow leaves and flying knives on their fingertips. This kind of legend is really chilling.

Upright.

Lanze put the items in the designated place and submitted them, put on his clothes and came out. As soon as he left, the small room behind him clicked and locked, and then there was a slight disinfectant sound of "buzz~buzz~buzz~".

Someone suddenly appeared in the room next to him. Lan Ze was startled. After taking a closer look, he didn't recognize him.

The two looked at each other, laughed at each other, and quickly went their separate ways.

I don’t know why I’m embarrassed at all. I’ve never seen it before.

Lan Ze went to say hello to the receptionist who was free, and then went to visit the entrance to swipe his wristband.

There are fewer visitors here, so you don’t have to queue up to visit, just go in directly.

Lan Ze has long wanted to go in and take a look. The last time he came with Zhang He, Zhang He didn't want to see it, so he let it go.

But he still wanted to see what the unborn babies looked like and feel happy physically and mentally.

It would be even happier if he could touch the fish tank where his little babies will live soon.

Human embryos of different ages live in different environments. The equipment used is different in appearance and function.

Low-month-old fetuses live in incubation cabinets.

The room Lan Ze first visited was lined with rows of large cabinets. The little dolls were enclosed inside. There was a screen on the upper half of the cabinet, designed at eye level for standing people to watch, allowing microscopic observation of the development of individual embryos inside.

Most of the time, real-time data is displayed. The console is synchronized with the information here. Remote monitoring is sufficient if there are no special circumstances, so there is no one in the cabinet room.

You can't say that either.

If human embryos were human beings, there would be a lot of people in the room.

A culture cabinet can accommodate one hundred people growing at the same time.

The room is filled with cabinets, four rows back to back and two rows against the wall. There are about ten culture cabinets in one row. If the cabinets are fully loaded, more than 10,000 people can have them.

It is not that culture cabinets that can accommodate more embryos have not been invented before. In the past, equipment malfunctions occurred in nurseries, and a large number of embryos died overnight. Although they had just started to develop, after all, they were still a lot of human lives. Later, all over the country

Only low-density, high-security equipment is used to house and monitor internal embryonic development.

What a coincidence. That incident happened to his old man. He was still young at the time and had just visited his baby's incubator during the holiday. A few days later, the nursery informed him that the equipment had malfunctioned and that two thousand babies, including

His children, including his, died together. Several times, the children he looked at could not be saved, so the old man felt that his sight was poisonous.

Even if the culture cabinet in this room is not running at full capacity, there are always thousands of embryos.

There are thousands of people in the room, but you can't see them. Well, the atmosphere is a bit strange.

However, the embryos at this stage are not human-like yet, they are just big-eyed bugs dragging a curved tail. Some of them don’t even have the shape of bugs, just a bunch of small cells. Can bugs also be called humans?

In a nursery, sperm and eggs with obvious defects will not get the chance to form an embryo. But this does not mean that two seemingly intact reproductive cells will definitely form a sound embryo when put together.

The embryo failure rate in the culture cabinet is not high, slightly lower than the normal spontaneous abortion rate in humans. This is because the germ cells participating in the pairing have already been screened.

However, there are still twitchy people who criticize child care centers for doing work that is a waste of human life. For them, it is best for human beings to return to their primitive state. As long as they are primitive, all the problems caused by civilization will no longer be a problem.

Isn’t that nonsense? In the natural state, humans and tigers discuss openly and nakedly who has stronger teeth, so all complex problems will be boiled down to the simplest question: How to survive?

Those people wishfully believe that as long as women give birth to children, the children will naturally grow up in care and without worries. It must be admitted that their rich imagination proves that they still meet the definition of intelligent creatures.

Why the failure rate of early embryonic development cannot be reduced is actually very simple.

The human genetic map is a poorly written composition, written haphazardly at the whim of nature. It is full of omissions and typos. Fragments from different sources are put together casually. Sometimes

You can still make things together quite cleverly, but sometimes it is inevitable that you will end up with things that are incomprehensible and even worse. Nature felt so embarrassed that she took the initiative to tear up her own works.

Lan Ze was in the room, looking at the rows of culture cabinets with no specific contents, and his heart was racing.

He smiled in the direction of the monitor above his head and walked around the cabinets in the room several times. The surface of the culture cabinets was so tight that there was nothing that could be manipulated, and the display screen only changed the displayed information according to touch commands.
