My Last Girlfriend - Chapter 442
At that time, I really began to admire the advanced technology of the Zidie family. After I came to the world of women, most of the high and new technology came after I met people from the Xu family.
After taking a submarine into the underwater egg-shaped base from an underwater tunnel, we ran into several technicians. They saw the purple butterfly and came up to the ground respectfully to say hello, and the purple butterfly smiled back. , And then let the nine butlers settle in the lounge for us.
“I’m sorry that Haixin still has Aowu, can you wait outside first? I’ll take Li Jian into my biological laboratory to see some things, and I will come out soon. If you go in, I’m afraid…it’s not very convenient.” After a lounge, Zidie turned and said to the wretched girl and the female wolf head, and smiled apologetically.
“Oh, it’s okay. Go and reply quickly. But if it’s 3p, call the old lady.” The wretched girl sat down on the side chair in the lounge and said with her nose.
“Uh…hehe, little friend Haixin speaks really funny.” Zidie smiled elegantly, her lips pursed with a gentle curve.
“Then Master, you deduct your booger here for a while, I will go with Zidie to have a look, and I will be back soon.”
“Knowing” The wretched girl folded her legs and folded her hands on the back of her head, closing her eyes to rest her mind.
I looked at each other with the purple butterfly and smiled, and then I followed the purple butterfly all the way to the biological laboratory.
“Li Jian, go this way.” Zidie wears a black suit, but instead has a strong charm. Generally speaking, a suit gives people a deep and dignified feeling, but Zidie wears a suit but is so self-cultivating. And stable, people have a slender and righteous feeling. I still rarely see women still so charming and beautiful in such a formal suit.
“Zidi, what do you want me to see?” I followed Zidie to the depths of the base.
“Hehe, look at our children.” Zidie said with a gentle smile.
“Boy… son?!” Zidie’s words made me feel like I was struck by a thunderbolt in the blue sky. “The kid… isn’t in your stomach?”
“Yes. I took the child out.” Zidie said calmly. “Because I have too many people and my official duties are too busy, I am worried that our child will attract the attention of the outside world, so I put him in an’artificial womb’.”
“Artificial…womb?!”
Hearing this word, I was stunned for a moment.
This is not the first time I have heard of the term artificial uterus.
In fact, when Junxia was pregnant before, she mentioned the artificial uterus to me.
The so-called artificial uterus is to breed embryos in a large capsule similar to a biological culture chamber. That large capsule can create an amniotic fluid environment similar to a pregnant woman’s uterus, and can also provide enough nutrients for the embryo to ensure the smooth development of the embryo.
Artificial uterus is also a well-known word in the world of women.
It is specially made for some women who have congenital uterus disease and cannot give birth normally. Using artificial uterus to raise embryos has many advantages, that is, the environment of artificial uterus is relatively stable, unlike real women. An accident occurred during the ten-month pregnancy. For example, accidents such as a small princess fell and miscarriage would never happen if an artificial uterus was used.
Of course, the artificial uterus also has its shortcomings. For one thing, the price required to use the artificial uterus is too high. After all, it is necessary to support the continuous operation of such a huge and complex machine for ten months, even if it is interrupted for a second. The cost of such a machine is almost sky-high, costing millions at every turn, and one bad thing is tens of millions. Not every family can afford it. Moreover, the environment of the artificial uterus is too stable, which will also stifle the possibility of external stimuli to promote embryo growth.
The so-called external stimulation to promote embryo growth refers to some prenatal education behaviors of women during pregnancy that can make babies smarter. For example, eating some extremely nutritious food or listening to some prenatal music can promote some mutations in the baby’s fund during the embryonic period. The babies born after the fund mutation may have particularly high intelligence, or have some music or art. Such expertise and talent. And if an artificial uterus is used, those external stimuli are less, and the possibility of infant mutation is also reduced.
Of course, in the world of women, there are some women who are unwilling to get pregnant. They may be afraid of the pain during childbirth, because they are too busy in their lives and careers and cannot spare time to conceive a child, or they are afraid of the risk of dystocia or some stars think pregnancy will happen. They are unwilling to get pregnant in person because of their body deformation and other reasons. At that time, they will apply to the government for’artificial uterus’ or’surrogacy’.
And 90% choose surrogacy.
The so-called surrogacy means that the buyer implants the embryo of the combination of his own somatic and egg cells into the womb of the ‘surrogate woman’ hired by him, so that she can surrogate those ‘buyers’ who are unwilling to become pregnant. Because somatic cells and egg cells come from the buyer, the child born will naturally inherit the buyer’s genes, basically the same effect as the artificial uterus.
But the price is much cheaper. Some surrogates may only need 200,000 surrogacy fees for ten months. This is much lower than the cost of millions of artificial uterus. Therefore, most women who do not want to conceive in person will choose surrogacy rather than artificial uterus pregnancy.
In fact, when Junxia told me about the artificial uterus, I also asked whether to use an artificial uterus for surrogacy. However, Junxia refused. One reason was that she was afraid that the identity of the baby boy would be exposed, and the other was that she wanted to experience the feeling of being a mother in person.
I really didn’t expect that Zidie would use artificial wombs to nurture our children.
It’s no wonder that Zidie’s belly is flat and flat, unlike a pregnant woman at all!
“Come in.” Zidie led me through a passage for professionals to enter and exit, and walked along the passage to the innermost corridor of the base. There are many room doors on the corridor. The doors are numbered, from 101 to 120.
And Zidie led me to Room 120 at the end of the corridor.
Zidie used her ID card to swipe the identity detector outside the doorknob to open the door of the room, and I followed her in fearfully.
Inside is a very spacious circular room, with a dozen high-brightness shadowless lights illuminating on the top, which illuminates the interior room like daylight.
In every corner of the room, there are high-tech precision instruments that I can’t name, such as capsule compartments, medical machines, carts, all-round surveillance cameras, pressure measuring machines, temperature regulators, micro analyzers, etc. The wonderful instrument, the shape is either a regular square, an oval, or an irregular shape. I don’t know what most of the instruments are for.
I was fascinated by the complicated instruments in the room for a second, but soon my attention fell on something in the middle of the room.
That is a pillar.
A glass pillar.
This is my first impression. Of course, this is definitely not an ordinary glass column. This is a biological culture chamber. The culture chamber is filled with a green liquid that I cannot name. In the center of the culture chamber, there are about two adults floating. A palm-sized piece of meat, the whole body was dark red, in the form of a vague human figure, like a small baby curled up, but with incomplete development of hands and feet, it looked very small and soft.
The baby’s belly button, mouth, anus, etc. are all connected by special thin tubes in the glass tube. Those thin tubes seem to transport nutrient solution and process excrement.
Seeing the shapeless tire inserted by countless intubation tubes, I was in a daze. I swallowed my saliva. I slowly stepped forward and walked to the front of the glass tube, looking at the inside quietly through the glass tube. That little tire.
So small, really so small. It hasn’t even formed yet. At first glance it was just a deformed meatball.
“Purple Butterfly, this is…our child?”
“Shhh. Don’t disturb the little one.”
Zidie gave me a faint look with her hands behind her back, and then stretched out a hand, put her finger between her lips, and then turned her head, her beautiful eyes did not blink, she quietly looked at the training room. That embryo.
“It’s incredible, isn’t it? This is our child, Li Jian.” Zidie fixedly looked at the child in the glass warehouse, her eyes soft, her voice with a bit of emotion, but with a bit of mother. Gentleness. Although Zidie has always been gentle, it was the first time I heard her speak in such a soft voice.
I stepped forward, pressing my palms against the glass bin, and leaning over my face, so I could see the child in the glass bin more clearly.
The tip of my nose touched the cold glass wool. What I saw was the face of the fetus first. I wanted to see what the child of Zidie and I looked like. What I saw was a fleshy, bald head. The facial features are more obvious, but the eyes and mouth are closed, the eyelids are more prominent, the nose is slightly pointed, and the ears are small. It looks a bit like an alien.
Then my eyes followed the body of the fetus and looked down.
I saw a slightly protruding dot, a bit like a small mole bitten by a mosquito. It should be a symbol of a man.
Although this mole is small, I know that the meaning of this mole is extraordinary. It represents the appearance of the second man in the world!
