Chapter 1594: Even With a 1% Probability

[… He was the wealth of civilization. From the moment the torch was lit, his life no longer belonged to only himself. His torso turned into soil and earth, his blood turned into mountains and rivers, living in people’s hearts forever in another form.

[However, the longing for light and heat of all creatures in nature is eternal. This is not to get more out of him, it is only because we have not yet come out of the pain of losing him…

[January 11th, 2025, Beijing.]

It had been almost a year since the disaster on Mars.

For the past year, Xiao Tong had been writing in a diary every day, hoping to find a moment of peace away from grief.

Xiao Tong wrote the date on the footer, closed the diary, and sighed softly.

It had been three days since she came to Beijing. In these three days, it rained at least two times, and not once did the sky clear up.

As for why she came here at this point in time…

It started with a conversation three days ago.

It was also a rainy day. A well-dressed woman found her house and showed her some documents.

She had seen similar documents from her brother’s close friends, so Xiao Tong guessed the lady was probably a member of the security department.

Her name was Yan Yan.

“Have you thought about it? Although this plan is really important to us, we understand if you want to refuse.”

Looking at the document on the coffee table, Xiao Tong, sitting on the sofa, thought for a while. She then reached out and picked up the pen and wrote her name on it.

She looked up at the surprised woman sitting across from the coffee table. With a smile, she said, “In fact, I was thinking about making similar plans a long time ago. I was just thinking about… his name.”

Yan Yan’s tone eased a little as she spoke.

“There’s no hurry. There is still a long time to think about it.”

“How could I do that? This is a very important thing.” Lu Xiaotong smiled and said, “If this little life must be brought into this world, I hope to give him an identity. After all… Technically, he would be my nephew.”

Of course, it could also be a niece.

Even with the aid of scientific methods, the pairing of chromosomes was a random process.

The woman sitting opposite the coffee table was silent for a while. She did not respond to this sentence but silently accepted the document.

Just like what Lu Xiaotong said.

Even if she refused to sign, they would go ahead as planned.

However, everything would be done without her knowledge. The newborn baby would also live in this world with another identity and surname.

Yan Yan didn’t care what the name of the child would be.

Xiao Tong: “How long until there will be results?”

Yan Yan: “The project was launched last year. It has now entered the clinical stage, so the results should be seen as early as October.”

Xiao Tong: “October… Can I be there at that time?”

Yan Yan said immediately, “Of course you can, you will always be updated with the latest progress of the research… If it is convenient, please come to the site by all means.”

“I will be sure to come then.” Xiao Tong smiled and said, “Although I am not interested in love, I actually want to have a child.”

Yan Yan lowered her head and said softly, “Thanks…”

“You’re welcome.” Xiao Tong shook her head and said with a smile, “This is what I expected.”

…

The so-called Bloodline Project, like the name suggested, was for the continuation of the bloodline.

The entire plan was based on the latest breakthrough research results.

Skin cells were induced into pluripotent stem cells through an analog of the CD38 glycoprotein. They were then cultivated into hPGCLC, which were primordial germ cells, through special induced differentiation technology.

The original intention of this research was to help those infertile patients fulfill their wish to have children. Earlier, this experiment was successful in mice, and related papers had been published. Because of potential ethical risks, this technology faced huge controversy, and the progress of scientific research had been slow as a result.

However, just recently, related research had suddenly made breakthrough progress.

Although Lu Zhou did not leave his own genetic samples before going to Mars, they could still find a lot of things like blood samples and somatic cells.

After all, as Lu Zhou’s personal doctor, Yan Yan had been working by his side for some time.

The whole Bloodline Project process was actually very simple. It was to use the power of science to grow Lu Zhou’s somatic cells into hPGCLC in-vitro, then combine it with the excellent samples in the egg bank to cultivate a blood vessel that could inherit Lu Zhou’s blood.

This method was safer than human cloning and could avoid ethical risks.

As for Xiao Tong, the whole plan did not require her to provide any cells or even for her to act as a mother. The only thing she needed to do was to provide a legal identity.

That was, this test-tube baby would be born into this world as her child…

In fact, in a strict sense, it was extremely risky to directly use this immature technology to nurture human newborns.

Moreover, it was also clear to people that even if they had the exact same genes, they might not be able to recreate a scholar whose academic ability was comparable to that of Academician Lu.

But even with a probability of 1%, it was worth a try.

After all, he was a man who changed the entire scientific process and the world’s structure on his own.

Even if the newborn bred in this way couldn’t catch up with Lu Zhou’s academic ability, they could at least retain his blood.

Maybe in the not-too-distant future, another scholar who was not inferior to him would be born and use his knowledge to change the world once again.

It was not so much blood that was left behind, it was more like a seed of hope…

Xiao Tong waited quietly for ten months. She waited outside the delivery room of 301 Hospital, then took the crying baby from a doctor.

“We succeeded! The newborn is very healthy. This is definitely a miracle in the history of medicine!”

“Shhh, don’t scare him.” Ignoring the doctor next to her, Xiao Tong stared lovingly at the crying baby in her arms. With a faint smile on her face, she said softly, “Life is a miracle…”

Compared to the excitement of the doctor, with the baby in her arms, there was not much exhilaration in her smile, only pampering and peaceful happiness.

She didn’t know what exactly was the source of that happiness…

Obviously, she had never been a mother before, and there was no crystallization of love in her mind, but when she held the baby in her arms, she felt a sense of destiny.

It was as if life had been given a new meaning, and something invisible had been activated.

Whether the baby was conceived naturally or came to this world because of the power of technology, that feeling would not change…

“I’ll call you Lu Yuan.”

The moment she said the name, Lu Xiaotong had already made up her mind.

She would raise him and develop him into a person who was as kind, brave, great, and full of wisdom as her brother.

From this moment onwards…

She was his mother.
