Chemistry

AN General Hospital Headquarters.

The young man just got out of the cab and his eyes were full of tension. Whether he took his cell phone out of the hospital entrance, he carefully checked the text message that he received this morning.

[KG Chemical Supplement Phase 1 Clinical Study: Fourth Floor Pharmacy Support Center for both days December 9-10]

After a while, the young man leaned his shoulders back and passed the door with a deep breath.

That's three seconds.

The young man's eyes waved small beyond the automatic door. When the smell of hospital disinfectant came through my nose, I felt like I was dozing off.

‘Hey, Jungwoo. Nothing to be afraid of. It's just a simple matter of eating nutrition and taking money. ’

The concierge in the lobby looked at me as if he was asking me where I was uncomfortable. Jungwoo smiled faintly and quickly stood in front of the elevator through the hallway.

As the elevator that was on the top floor came down, Jung's gaze remained on the silver glow of the door.

A robust young man in his mid-20s.

Big and tall with no fat body.

Mostly brown eyes.

It was also part of the recruitment lumen of a clinical test to participate today. I accidentally looked at the job search site. The problem was the additional conditions underneath.

[You have been in a coma for more than a week.]

[Insomnia, hypersomnia alternates.]

[Sometimes I feel like someone invisible is talking to me.]

[There are many things that feel like they have not been through before.]

Conditions that must match even one of the dozen unique conditions. So I don't know if it's creepier.

‘It's not hiring people with mental illnesses. But still. ’

Who knew having been admitted to a car accident would help this way?

Ding-dong.

I'm getting on the elevator, and I'm like, "Wait a minute!” There was a man who hurriedly shouted. Jungwoo, who naturally threw his eyes at him, was slightly surprised.

It was because he was a man who fit the appearance conditions of the recruiting code that looked somewhat pale to his own size.

The man looked at Jungwoo and asked.

“Are you on a clinical trial? ”

“Yes? Oh, yes. ”

“Phew, thank God. This is the right place.”

The man shrugged his cold hands in his armpits and sweeped his eyes once. Then I asked.

“Is this your first time?”

“Yes?”

“Beginners usually come with fear. Clinical trials. Honestly, it's a weird word. I don't know what people who don't have faces are gonna do to my body. ”

“That's right.”

The man said as if there was nothing new.

“One day, I went to test for hypertensive medication, and they told me to start with laxatives and run all day on the treadmill. I have to check for extreme blood pressure changes in my body. ”

“Ew, that was a terrible experience. ”

“Oh, this is medicine. When it's an erectile stimulant, you should masturbate without even trying. ”

“Now, masturbation? ”

“Do you want me to take it out with a syringe? Or do you want to vote for yourself? But what do you say? Ask the nurse to do it, and we'll get right on it. ”

“ · · ·! ”

“Anyway, there's all kinds of weird stuff around. But it's worth a lot of money. ”

In other words, he was like a special list of clinical trials. I don't know if I'm telling you to calm down or if I'm making you more anxious.

Ding-dong.

At that moment, the elevator stops and the door opens.

He stepped out into the hallway and saw five or six more participants standing there.

There's a lot of people who are just as scared as I am. ’

Jungwoo also sat down among the people who were frozen and waited for a clinical trial that would be done shortly.

“Mr. Jungwoo? ”

“Yes.”

The room that came with the call was like a science lab with unnamed medical devices. I noticed a lot of people in white robes.

A woman next to Jungwoo, who was moving around, approached.

“Senior researcher at KG Chemistry. Please call me Dr. Moon. ”

The target has a voice that snaps as neatly as its head tied up.

“This way first. ”

Jung followed after Jung, slightly surprised, when a researcher with an unexpected beauty spoke to him about meeting him at a place like this.

“The test will take place here. ”

On the table where Dr. Moon's hand was gesturing, there was a finger ampoule and syringe labeled ’AF-12'.

Jungwoo was momentarily confused.

“Are you taking injections, not eating them? It's a health supplement.”

The embarrassing question of Jungwoo caused Dr. Moon to react calmly.

“The method of administration would have been stated in the Terms and Conditions. Are you sure you signed the consent form? ”

Dozens of pages full of letters suddenly touched Jungwoo's head. I read them carefully, but I could hardly remember any jargon I didn't know the meaning of.

Another surprised participant like Jungwoo, Dr. Moon quickly continued to speak with an office attitude.

“Each candidate has a different test method. We need to diversify the dosage regimen in order to ensure proper receptivity in the body. Creams, bandages, potions, aerosols, suppositories · · · · · ·. ”

"Suppository?"

The injections were very good.

Dr. Moon pulled out a B.P. meter from one of the medical devices on the cart and placed it on the table.

“Let me start with some basic tests. We need to know if the side effects are from another condition. ”

“What if there are side effects? ”

At that moment, Dr. Moon's expression seemed like, 'This means that this is not just a million won'.

Afterwards, Jungwoo was familiar with the scene.

Appearance measurements such as blood pressure and electrocardiograms, height and weight were not significantly different from the physical exams I had during school.

In 30 minutes.

“The time is 16: 05. Let's start administering the" AF-12 "dilution to subject only Woo. ”

Dr. Moon took the syringe to Jungwoo's forearm.

Jungwoo saw 0.1 mg of liquid rapidly dissipate in the syringe with a slight tingling sensation.

“That's enough.”

“Already?”

The dosing solution was smaller and therefore simpler than taking a flu injection.

“Please wait in room 407 for a 12-hour response, so avoid overwhelming movements in your body. ”

Jungwoo nods with an alcoholic cotton wool on his arm.

As I left the door, the man, who is a specialist in clinical trials, pretended to know Jungwoo.

“How's it going in there? ”

“It's nothing. ”

“Right?"

Jungwoo winced as he saw the new ‘AF-12’ set in the form of a sharp pill on the table. It looks like it could fit into a hole somewhere.

‘· · · Digging, fighting. ”

In 407, some of the subjects who had received the medication before dawn were relaxed.

After roughly making eye contact, I lay on an empty bed.

‘It's no big deal. ’

I felt like I was drowning because there was no such thing as a colourless accident when I entered the hospital because it was freezing. I'm sorry to spend this peaceful time and leave with a million won.

After a while.

A man walked in during his free time. I didn't feel uncomfortable walking around like I had something stuck between my legs.

“Hey, Mr. Lim Woo! ”

He sat on the bedside, naturally speaking to Jungwoo.

“Dr. Moon, you can't be serious. ”

“Yes, he's quite stubborn. It's a little scary. ”

“No, it's really pretty, isn't it? I thought it would melt so gently when I applied the ointment!”

I had to scratch my chin to see a man who acted like he had put ointment on his arm.

I know, but I won't say anything.

You nod quietly, and the man turns to Hangout Mode.

“Dr. Moon. I asked the nurse a few questions and she's an attending physician. There is such a woman. She's pretty. She's good at studying. This company's clinical trials are going to be contingent. Do you know if you can get the number? ”

“Will I be attracted to a man who does this? ”

“Khh. Stabbing. It's more realistic than it looks. But I have a goddess like that who needs to apply for a KG clinical trial. ”

If you were a clinical trial specialist like that man, you might be able to take tests with a beauty like Dr. Moon.

‘Maybe one more time and the liver will start to grow. ’

There were more and more people in the room.

After eating until dinner at a hospital that became a sour liver, my time went on until night. Meanwhile, a researcher in a gown with a KG chemical mark came in and simply checked his blood pressure.

"Huh?

Jungwoo, who was touching his phone, tilted his head. Suddenly, the room felt quiet as if it were a rat. Strangely, the man next to him, as well as all the other participants who were talking, closed their eyes.

10: 00 p.m. on the clock. It was bedtime.

Jungwoo thought that he would soon fall asleep, and leaned his head against the pillow.

‘Come on. I told you to rest until tomorrow. ’

Even though I closed my eyes, I couldn't get much sleep that seemed to be coming soon.

11: 00, 12: 00. At 1: 00 in the morning, I shit my pants.

‘· · · Strange. Is it because the dragonflies have changed? ’

I'm bored too, but I made it to the boat. What concerns me the most is this strangely silent room. How it can be quiet without any snoring, without any snoring.

‘Phew.’

When I was spending time touching my phone again, suddenly the door of the room opened.

Sweet.

Is it because it was too quiet inside? Jungwoo put his cell phone on his chest and breathed. If you keep your eyes open and you don't follow the instructions to get some rest, it's a waste, too.

Two men in white robes open the door.

“I'm exhausted. ”

“Isn't this almost coma enough? ”

“I always feel like when I walk into a room at this stage, I feel like I'm looking at a mass suicide. It's creepy.”

It was a conversation that was inevitable for Jungwoo's ears.

“But it's another failure, right? ”

“Yes, Dr. Moon will be disappointed again. ”

“Isn't the medicine bad? I'm glad we don't have to do anything. ”

“If I make 10,000 New Drugs, I'll succeed in one. ”

Glug glug.

The hungry ship has sent a signal.

“Huh? You didn't hear that? ”

“Which way? ”

Jung, who saw the people talking around with his eyes, raised his hand as if he had been caught.

“Excuse me.”

As I stood up, I could feel their flaws startled.

“Can I go down to the convenience store and have a cup? I haven't been sleeping well since I got out. ”

The two people who had changed their faces as they stroked their bellies smiling beautifully ran away, bored and blue.

"Why are you so surprised? ’

Even more frightening was the fact that two men ran out loud, but the other participants in the room did not react at all.

Creepy Jungwoo approached the clinical specials list next door.

“Hey."

The man shakes his shoulders slightly, but he doesn't seem to wake up.

A sudden feeling of anxiety.

Clinical trials that pay unusually much money. Illegal ProceduresSide effects. · · · · · · Trying to steal patients from comas and traffick organs.

It was when all sorts of thoughts touched my mind.

You hear three or four deer rushing down the hall. Then in the room, two men ran out earlier and a beautiful researcher encountered during the day.

“Dr. Moon? ”

“You're really awake. ”

The Doctor Moon, who stopped at the door, carefully examined Jungwoo and swallowed the dried saliva. Then he looked back at the men who came with him and said,

“You can both go now. You've done well.”

The men necessarily went back with silent lips.

Dr. Moon tried very hard to reach Jungwoo.

“Can I talk to you for a second? ”

“Why aren't these people waking up? ”

“I took some sleeping pills. ”

“Yes?”

Jungwoo said, "What about me? ’I asked a question. Dr. Moon calmly opens his mouth.

One side of the protein cells making up “AF-12" is a potent sleep inducing agent. The other side is a compound with specific knowledge. ”

“What are you talking about? ”

“The reason we took this dual structure is to target people like you. But I didn't expect to find a sample that actually responded so quickly. It was predicted to be one of 10,000. For three months, it was only the participants who were not even close to here. I apologize for not being able to respond smoothly. ”

Jungwoo, who was half frozen in an unexpected excuse, mutters.

“I'm sorry, Dr. Moon. I specialize in the humanities. ”

“Haven't you taken a class yet? ”

“· · · Should I listen? ”

Dr. Moon nodded immediately and showed a sense of reasoning. Jungwoo was instantly upset by that reaction.

“Now that I think about it, I'm really sorry. Why business school students did not take pharmacy classes. ”

“molecular biology.”

“That's it!”

As Jungwoo growled small, Dr. Moondo suddenly opened her hands.

“AF-12" is two molecules facing each other like mirrors. It's called chirality, or an enantiomer. ”

Fingers pointing at each other like they're mirror moves.

“The principle is simple. Even though the hands look alike, the left glove doesn't fit on the right. For them, it's a sleeping pill. For Mr. Jungwoo, the intelligence component worked. ”

Clearly, I was listening to Korean, but the explanation continued.

“Don't you know Chiral Castle? ”

“I don't know about Chiral, and I just feel like shit. ”

“ · · · · · ·. ”

As the nonsense continued, Jungwoo's troubles got sore.

“So why did you put all these people to sleep and wake me up? ”

“That's Limit Woo. You know better. Does anything come to mind? ”

“This woman is real! ”

The doctor's door was set on a serious, nonchalant manner all along, and it exploded.

“Do you play with people? Let's say my shot contains a sleeping pill. An enantiomer? A compound of knowledge? Am I making any sense? Molecular logging is a technology that involves genetics and biology and the genome project. And if you want to reverse understand the genetically coded knowledge, you can't do that unless you have a sequencer in your head. ”

“It's usually impossible. ”

“Yes, it's impossible. The genetic code translates RNA into the amino acid sequence in which it resides. If the transport RNA does not undergo complex molecular recognition that attaches amino acids · ·”

Jungwoo stopped.

“· · · Why is this saying sticking to my mouth! ”
