Thinking that the syringe for the transformation serum might still be at Zheng Qing's home, Xia Xu couldn't sit still.
Making an excuse to look for clues, Xia Xu asked for the address and then led A Tuo to the residence where Yu Zhengqing was arrested last time.
But after rummaging through it, he was a little disappointed.
After searching the whole room, I didn't see any injection syringes. I don't know if Yu Zhengqing just threw them away because he thought they were useless.
"The one Yao Fu used is the original sample, you can't miss it..."
Xia Xu frowned slightly, still unwilling to give up.
According to his speculation, the special features of the protagonist Yao Fu should be impossible to reproduce in the short term.
This may be due to Yao Fu's own genes or luck, but it may also be because the modified serum Yao Fu used is special.
If we follow this line of thinking, even if this new type of bat-modified serum appears again in the future, it is likely that it will not be exactly the same as Yao Fu's 'exclusively for the protagonist'.
This is definitely very possible. He has learned a lot about biology these days. Not to mention doing any experiments himself, he still has a basic conceptual understanding.
The so-called ‘modified serum’ is not a chemical agent with fixed ingredients.
‘Serum’ generally refers to a mixture extracted from the blood of various organisms, which can provide nutrients, hormones, growth factors, etc. to cells, and is often used to protect cultured cells.
To put it in a slightly more vivid way, the serum itself can be regarded as a culture medium, and what can really play a role in genetic modification should be the cells and viruses loaded inside.
Nowadays, it is actually very difficult for human beings to interfere at the genetic level with their own technology, and the more feasible modifications are often carried out with the help of viruses.
Because of the characteristics of viruses, some of them can cut, paste, and copy genes, and use these viruses to modify DNA or gene fragments. This is currently the most feasible gene editing technology.
Of course, lycanthropy modulation technology and gene fusion technology must be more complex and darker.
But the original principle remains unchanged. Since the serum has been produced, the transformation must be completed through specially prepared cells or viruses.
But the problem is that even if it is the same bat gene, each individual bat will have differences. Even if it is the same virus, different culture batches and branches will have differences, and mutations may occur.
Therefore, it can be said that even the same genetically modified serum will have differences, and don't forget that the underground research institute that produced the new modified serum used by Yao Fu has been bombed, and the ones obtained from other research institutes may be very different.
Not to mention whether those serums can achieve similar effects, at least they cannot be perfect samples.
Only Yao Fu's own genes and the modified serum he used, and the perfect coincidence of the two, finally gave birth to the 'Batman'. Others may have used it as a bat monster or even just lost their genes due to genetic collapse.
Because of this, Xia Xu attaches so much importance to this used syringe, because only this is the most likely to complete the remake of "Batman". The organization behind the scenes wants to arrest Yao Fu for almost the same reason.
After searching for a while again, Xia Xu still found nothing. He could only rummage through the debris in the room bit by bit.
To be honest, Yu Zhengqing's room is quite messy. After all, he is a bad old man who sleeps around the clock and stays out at night. His mind is still a little abnormal. It would make Atuo feel uncomfortable to call it a doghouse.
Unfortunately, it has been nearly a month since Yao Fu injected the transformation serum, and the smell remaining on it has long since dissipated. Otherwise, he might have been able to find it with the help of Atuo.
"No...I seem to have missed something..."
After counting them one by one using a stupid method, Xia Xu suddenly stopped and patted his forehead.
He remembered the time when he interrogated Yu Zhengqing before.
At that time, he 'speculated' that Yu Zhengqing had stolen the modified serum, and that the modified serum was no longer on him.
Although this was just a lie, judging from Yu Zhengqing's complete lack of refutation, it was obvious that he was right.
In Yu Zhengqing's understanding, the stolen transformation serum had been completely lost.
But in Yao Fu's plot just now, it was mentioned that the syringe had been picked up by Yu Zhengqing...
Xia Xu's face looked a little ugly.
There are two possibilities for this situation. One is that the syringe was indeed picked up by someone, but it was not picked up by Yu Zhengqing. There was a third party involved.
After all, what is written in the plot synopsis is only the result of Yao Fu not finding the syringe and speculation based on his perspective. If the plot is revealed from this perspective, it is not without laying the groundwork for the subsequent plot development or the possibility of a sequel.
He actually preferred this possibility. After all, no matter who took it away, at least the other party realized the value of the syringe and would keep and handle it properly. In this way, he would at least have a chance to find a way to obtain it.
But there is a second possibility. Perhaps in Zhengqing's concept, the syringe does not equal the modified serum, so during the interrogation he still believed that the serum had been lost.
This aspect also shows that he does not pay attention to the syringe, so Yu Zhengqing will probably not keep the syringe after picking it up. Instead, he will most likely throw it away angrily.
It would be okay if you take it home and throw it away, but if you throw it out on the spot, you are really looking for a needle in a haystack. Moreover, if it is exposed to the wind and sun for so long, even the small amount of remaining serum may have evaporated completely.
Although this possibility may arise when Yu Zhengqing takes it back for safekeeping, before he came here he was just trying his luck, but at this point he still feels a little uncomfortable.
After all, people are accustomed to imagining things in a way that is good for them. No matter how much mental preparation they make, before seeing the reality, they will always have the addictive confidence of a gambler.
"Yu Zhengqing, do you want to go out?"
After searching carefully for a while but still to no avail, Xia Xu returned to the Decheng branch of the special department and entered Yu Zhengqing's interrogation room and cell again.
"Oh, do you think I will still believe you?"
Yu Zhengqing sneered and closed his eyes without saying a word.
"Then there's no way."
Xia Xu shrugged, with a familiar evil smile on his face: "Now let's continue playing the last game."
"you……"
Yu Zhengqing's complexion changed and he couldn't help but open his eyes again.
