The family 34

In the year 2124, Old Liu and his family lived in a world where technology had evolved to unprecedented levels. The streets were filled with self-driving cars, and homes were equipped with advanced AI assistants.

One day, Old Liu received an appointment from the local government for a mandatory health check-up. He was reluctant to go, as he was stubborn about his privacy. However, Mrs. Liu insisted that it was important for their well-being.

As they arrived at the clinic, they noticed a strange atmosphere. The attendants seemed to be acting strangely, almost robotic. Old Liu felt a sense of awkwardness but decided to proceed with the check-up.

During the examination, Old Liu was asked to undergo a series of tests. One of them involved predicting his future health conditions based on his genetic makeup. To everyone's surprise, the results showed that Old Liu had a high potential for developing a rare disease.

The doctor explained that there was a provision for treatment, but it required a sacrifice. They would need to donate a part of their DNA to a research facility. Old Liu was hesitant, but Mrs. Liu convinced him that it was for the greater good.

Meanwhile, Lisa and Lina, the daughters, were curious about what was happening. They snuck into the lab and discovered that the research facility was actually conducting experiments on human evolution. They found out that the sacrifices made by patients like Old Liu were being used to create superhumans.

Shocked by this revelation, Lisa and Lina decided to take matters into their own hands. They hacked into the system and managed to delete all the data related to their father's case. They also sent a message to other families warning them about the sinister intentions of the facility.

Back at home, Old Liu and Mrs. Liu were relieved when they heard the news that the facility had been shut down due to ethical violations. They realized the importance of integrity and accuracy in scientific research.

From that day forward, Old Liu became more aware of the potential dangers of unchecked technological advancement. He started advocating for stricter regulations and transparency in medical research.

Years passed, and the world continued to evolve. But Old Liu and his family remained steadfast in their values, always reminding themselves of the lesson they learned: that progress should never come at the cost of humanity’s dignity and integrity.
