The 10,000th Rebirth

Chen Luo still had a haughty expression at this time, but his eyes had been secretly observing Zheng Xueming.

The first feeling was that he was emotionless and indifferent, but when shaking hands, Chen Luo felt that his palms were cold and his hands were very stiff, which was a little different from ordinary people.

Chen Luo almost instantly confirmed his previous judgment when he saw the photo. He suddenly said, "Do you have ALS?"

Zheng Xueming's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he suddenly squeezed Chen Luo's hand tightly, "Mr. Kimura, what do you mean?"

Chen Luo snorted arrogantly and threw away Zheng Xueming's hand, "Your facial expression is like that of a dead person. It has not changed at all from the beginning to the end. I thought you had a dead face. But when we shook hands just now, The muscles in your hands are also stiff and weak, which is an early sign of ALS.”

The so-called ALS means that the muscles gradually become unable to move, as if they were frozen. Limb weakness and muscle tremors gradually appear, which will gradually progress to muscle atrophy, difficulty swallowing, and even respiratory failure.

In most cases, patients can survive for 3 to 5 years after developing symptoms of ALS, but some people can live for many years. The most famous example is theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking.

In the nearly three thousand years that Chen Luo has lived, he has studied medical skills to solve his own cancer. It can be said that he has seen all the diseases in the world.

He even went so far as to infect himself with some diseases in order to find a cure.

Chen Luo actually had a rough inference when he saw Zheng Xueming's photo, and he confirmed it just after shaking hands.

No wonder Zheng Xueming has been studying genetics and biomedicine, because although humans have not found the exact cause of ALS, about 10% of patients have genetic changes or mutations.

There are even many similarities in the genetic mutations between familial ALS patients and non-familial ALS patients, so there is a basic consensus in the genetic community that ALS may be related to genetic mutation infections.

Zheng Xueming has been studying genetics since college. He knew without thinking that he must be a familial ALS patient. This made him aware of his future destiny, so he devoted all his energy to researching this direction in order to survive.

Because there is no cure for ALS even in 2019, only drugs and other comprehensive methods can be used to improve symptoms and delay the progression of the disease.

On this basis, all the logic of Zheng Xueming's behavior can be explained.

He is so low-key and has not established his own power. He just doesn't want to be distracted and spends all his energy on research.

Even arresting Xue Qingluan was not out of hatred or profit, because she was also an expert in this field. Zheng Xueming wanted Xue Qingluan to help him solve scientific research problems.

The rejuvenation pill was probably accidentally produced by Zheng Xueming during the process of researching and deciphering the genetic mutation, so he simply tested it.

Zheng Xueming's face remained stiff, without any change, but the strong light in his eyes showed the shock in his heart.

Zheng Xueming glanced at the crowd around him. Others didn't react at all, because they had been communicating in Japanese and no one could understand them.

"Mr. Kimura, it's not convenient to talk here. Please come with me."

Zheng Xueming made an inviting gesture and invited Chen Luo to the company.

Chen Luo was naturally not polite, and immediately followed Zheng Xueming through the office area, and then took the elevator to the isolation experimental area on the 20th floor. Finally, only the two of them entered the office in the experimental area.

Along the way, whether it was the staff in the office area or the researchers in the experimental area, everyone saw Zheng Xueming smiling, and even took the initiative to say hello with a humble expression.

After entering the office, Zheng Xueming asked directly, "Mr. Kimura has studied ALS?"

Chen Luo said carelessly, "I've just done a little research. Hehe, looking at you, it seems that you just got sick not long ago, but once you are over 40 years old, the symptoms will become more and more serious, and you don't have much time."

Zheng Xueming's eyes flashed slightly, "Since Mr. Kimura has already seen it, there is no need for me to hide it.

In fact, this is exactly why I asked Mr. Kimura to come. I have been studying genetics for twenty years.

Now there has been a key breakthrough in solving this disease, but I have encountered a problem. I have consulted the world's top experts in this field, but there is no solution. "

Chen Luo asked with a rather interested expression, "Oh, what breakthrough?"

Zheng Xueming walked to his desk, took out a piece of paper from the drawer, then walked to Chen Luo and handed it over.

Chen Luo took the drawing, but did not look at it immediately. Instead, he asked directly, "Before looking at it, I want to make sure that this is the test that your Excellency mentioned?"

Zheng Xueming's expression did not change at all, he just nodded and said, "Exactly. As long as Mr. Kimura can help me solve this problem, even if the commission is completed, I will pay you the reward as soon as possible."

Zheng Xueming didn't know whether Kimura Ryosuke in front of him knew the identity of the baron, so he safely chose the same title as him.

"You seem to have forgotten one thing. You paid that Excellency's remuneration, but what about my own remuneration? That Excellency just asked me to come, but did not offer to give me any compensation.

I came all the way from the island country, should I come back empty-handed? "

Chen Luo asked with a dissatisfied look on his face.

Zheng Xueming's eyes moved slightly and he asked simply, "How much does Mr. Kimura need? Please quote directly."

Chen Luo chuckled and said, "I am not short of money to follow that sir. I am very interested in your rejuvenation pill. I need all the rejuvenation pills you have in your hands now."

As soon as these words came out, Zheng Xueming's originally expressionless dead face showed fluctuations. He stared at Chen Luo for a moment and said coldly, "How did Mr. Kimura know that I made the Rejuvenation Pill?"

Chen Luo glanced at Zheng Xueming in surprise, "You don't think that His Excellency didn't investigate you before he asked me to come, do you?"

Zheng Xueming was startled when he heard this. It is normal for members of Blood to be wary of each other. Since the other party is a baron, it is not surprising to investigate him in advance.

He hesitated for a moment, "I do still have the Rejuvenation Pill, but I would like to ask, what does Mr. Kimura need the Rejuvenation Pill for?"

Chen Luo snorted coldly, "This is not what you need to know. If you agree or reject, you can give me the answer now."

Zheng Xueming looked at Chen Luo in surprise. He vaguely guessed that the other party might have studied something he didn't know about from the rejuvenation pill, but he couldn't tell what it was.
