Girl, it's the end of the world

Chapter 9 Radiation Theory

Moving out of the original room was uncomfortable at first, but it wasn't that difficult, and I gradually got used to it.

Probably, the last days have improved people's ability to bear in all aspects, or the heart that always thinks of making such a fuss can't bear it no matter how strong it is.

Song Anxin was sleeping soundly at night, but she was dazed when she heard some rustling sounds.

It seems to be a plastic bag... Wait, isn't the severed limb of the vine monster she picked up in there?

She jumped up like a carp, lit the candles, but when she saw the scene on the ground, she couldn't laugh or cry.

The plastic bag is also the size of a normal paper, and it is a very fragile kind, but it has an adhesive seal on the top.

At this time, the small section of vine that Song Anxin picked up was struggling inside, almost every tendril was used, but still could not break free from the shackles of the plastic bag.

Song Anxin watched it struggle for a long time with bad intentions, and saw it weakly let go of its supporting stem for a long time, and couldn't help but think about it——

Could it be that the little vine is sighing?

Happy with his own thoughts, Song Anxin got out of bed, and twisted a corner of the plastic bag with his thumb and forefinger.

The little vine played dead inside and remained motionless.

"Hey, I've seen it all, do you understand?"

Song Anxin teased it like a hooligan, shaking the plastic bag.

The little guy remained motionless, obviously distinguishing between the enemy and us, and adopting the safest strategy.

Song Anxin didn't bother with it anymore, and yawned. Considering the tenacious vitality and danger of the vine monster, he thought for a while and threw it into the drawer with a plastic bag, and locked it with the small key attached.

"Hey, let's see how long you can live without water and sunlight." It's an experiment, too.

After finishing all this, Song An sat down on the bed again contentedly, her breathing gradually stabilized.

And the vines in the drawer twisted their stems uncomfortably, fearing that making noises would attract Song Anxin, a dangerous person, so they closed their stomata, and carefully protected the life-sustaining water in their bodies to enter a dormant state.

"What is certain is that animals and plants have mutated, and humans have also begun to mutate. Now the number of people in the base is gradually decreasing, some died of starvation, some died of sudden diseases, but some people were not sick at first. , after the end of the world, they became weaker and weaker, and finally died of high fever. These people are mainly women and children, and some young people are also dying from this cause."

The experts invited by the base analyzed it while drawing patterns on the wall with chalk.

The circles represent water, air, food, and sunlight respectively.

"Water, all animals and plants cannot live without water. As advanced animals, human beings will dehydrate, suffer from shock if the water in their bodies is less than a certain amount, and even if it is serious, they will die. The water resources available to us now Not much, as for the consequences of drinking the polluted water, you have also seen these days."

"There is no need to worry about the air. Even because of the sharp decrease in population, the air quality has improved." The expert said with a cold humor, but no one present found this joke funny.

"Food. Although it can be supplied for a period of time, there are no manufacturers to produce these things. These things will be consumed sooner or later. Therefore, we should find another way to find food in nature, such as those mutated monsters and plants. Of course, we must first be able to defeat them .”

"Sunshine, the source of energy. Although we are facing many disasters now, we must believe that there is sunshine, and our future will be bright. I can't guarantee it for people from other countries, but as a Chinese, we must Believe in the tenacious vitality of the Chinese people!"

After the expert said these words, he was so excited that tears filled his eyes. He took off his glasses to wipe off the fog on them, and the people in the audience found that there were a lot of numb faces.

Song Anxin glanced around and applauded.

As if the people around had just remembered, there was a burst of applause.

As everyone withdrew from the meeting place together, Song Anxin didn't hurry up. From the corner of his eyes, he saw the expert packing up his equipment, so he stopped to wait for him.

The expert looked very surprised when he found Song Anxin, probably because he was too surprised and his expression was too soft because of being moved.

"This..." He held up his glasses.

"My surname is Song."

"Oh, Ms. Song. Do you have any questions about staying?" The expert said with an expression that I am happy to answer for you.

"Oh, I'm just wondering. What do you think caused the people in the base to become weak and even die from high fever?"

Song Anxin humbly asked for advice.

"Well, it's naturally because of the long-term hunger that weakens the body's immunity..." The expert was about to start a long speech triumphantly, but Song Anxin stopped him.

"Then what do you think caused those animals and plants to mutate?" Song Anxin asked seriously.

"Well, it's natural selection. If they want to survive, they have to change accordingly. Take the butterflies in the sewage plant as an example, in order to survive, they also mimic dead leaves... And..."

"Well, I agree with your point of view." Song Anxin smiled and asked another question: "Have you ever thought that maybe it is the bright sunlight that you think makes them mutate and causes humans to suffer from strange diseases?"

At this moment, the experts had already determined that Song Anxin was here to mess things up, and after hearing this argument, they just disdainful, blowing their beard and staring: "False!" But he thought for a while and couldn't find any reason to refute Song Anxin, so he couldn't help leaving angrily.

Seeing the back of the expert leaving, the smile on Song Anxin's face also disappeared.

Although he felt that she was playing tricks on him, these thoughts about the mutation caused by light radiation had been circulating in Song Anxin's mind for quite a few days.

Generally speaking, optical radiation is different from nuclear radiation, and can only be regarded as a relatively common trace radiation.

Moreover, most of the mutations caused by radiation are non-benign mutations, and the probability is very low, not to mention the surviving organisms that have successfully mutated, but the reality is that such mutations do exist.

In addition, mutations caused by radiation cannot be inherited in theory, and cannot develop on a large scale.If the theory of radiation-induced variation is affirmed, then it is very likely that the variation does not reach the scale of species, but that the probability of variation has risen sharply.

"Sister An Xin, what are you doing standing here?" Lou Xiaoyu walked over with a smile, trying to hold Song Anxin's hand but she dodged it lightly, and couldn't help being startled.

"It's nothing, I'm in a daze. I have a stomachache, go to the bathroom." Song Anxin's trick was tried and tested, Lou Buyu knew she was making excuses, but it was hard to expose her, so he just nodded reluctantly.

…………

Lou Xiaoyu entered the space inside the pendant, and was not surprised to see that the seeds planted a few days ago had sprouted.

The outside sun can't come in, but the space will be much warmer during the day, maybe it absorbs the heat, but it shields the harmful part.

When they lived together with Song Anxin in the past, they discussed the reasons for the variation of animals and plants in private. Lou Xiaoyu didn't study biology, but what Song Anxin told her made sense.

It's just that she doesn't care why they mutate, she only cares about what Song Anxin thinks of her now.

Lou Xiaoyu knew that his current state was quite dangerous, so he focused all his thoughts on Song Anxin, and put all his thoughts in his heart.But feelings are like this, if she doesn't get a response, she just doesn't want to be reconciled.

Why can Song Anxin act as if nothing had happened when she fell into the mud by herself and was completely dirty?
