Operation: Last Suicide

Survival #5: Fun

Pauline Benitez Mendoza.

One of the best scientist in her time. Her husband is Jeffrey Mendoza. They only have one child, and is a girl. There's no name said in this site.

Also, nasabi din sa site na ito ay naunang nawala ang kanyang asawa. And then, sumunod si Pauline. At ayon dito, kasama niya ang nag-iisa niyang anak na babae na nasunog sa laboratory niya.

Hindi lang silang dalawa. Since, Pauline is with her friend, Hedrick Monasterio. And based in here, kasama ang pitong taong gulang na anak na lalaki. All them four died in that laboratory.

But then, bakit walang rason kung bakit sinunog iyon? O sila? Anong nagawa nila at bakit ganoon ang kinahantungan nila?

Sinubukan kong mag-search pero pare-parehong walang lumalabas. Ang mga article na nandito ay noon pa na-publish at wala naman ng recent ngayon mula sa publisher n'on.

Naging mainit na usapan iyon noon at ngayon, inuungkat muli. Mga rumors lang ang nandito na, at iyon lang ang bago. At iisang site lang ang nakitaan ko tungkol sa laboratory na sinasabi ni Yuri.

Ang nasunog na lab malapit Stanford's airbase. Ngunit iyon lang dahil naka-private ang iilang detalye. At nakapagtataka na wala man lang picture ni Pauline Mendoza na kumalat? As in wala, wala akong nakita. Her friend also, wala din.

I guess it's a serious matter, huh?

I know that I said I would focus on the said virus but I can't just help it. Paano namin malalaman ang rason ni Pauline Mendoza kung wala na ito?

Nagpatuloy ang mga ko. Minsanan na umuuwi si Papa at lagi akong pinapa-alalahanan na mag-training lang. He said he will teach me regarding skills in a gun if he's finish on what he's doing. Si kuya Theo naman ay ganoon pa rin. Panay na lang iwas ko para maayos.

Sa tuwing magkikita naman kami ni Yuri, patuloy pa rin kami sa ginagawa. But then, her offer got delayed. Naging biglang abala daw ang mga magulang niya sa lab nila kaya hindi namin magagawa ang plano namin.

Ang kuya niya ay na-postponed din ang uwi. Bigla na lang daw nagbago ang isip at kapag naka-graduate na lang daw tsaka uuwi. Naghahanap na din kami ng lead kung totoo nga ba ang infected na aso at kung saan na iyon ngayon.

May conclusion na din akong, maaring weapon sana iyon. But then, it accidentally became a virus. Kung sana ay alam namin kung nasaan ang aso na iyon, mas madali sana para sa amin.

"Antigens are glyco-protein markers embedded in the cell membrane and help your immune system to distinguishe between your body's own cells and foreign cells like viruses or bacteria."

I nod at Yuri. She's explaining me what are the different blood types and all. Since, the blood is the major part in this experiment. But, I still didn't ask her about my blood type. Saka na lang kapag tapos na namin ito.

"In that virus, I conclude it doesn't have any antigens," sagot ko.

"Siguro, pero baka meron din naman. Once you put a blood on a recipient and it's not compatible, it's immune system would attack a new blood cells and destroy them. Pwedeng ikamatay pa ng recipient."

"In blood type A, A antigen is found on the blood cells itself. And the A, or anti-b antibody is found in the blood serum," paliwanag niya habang may itinuturo sa medyo may kalakihang chart na ginawa niya.

"...blood type B, A antigen is found on the blood cells and a B or anti-A antibody is found on the blood serum. AB has both a and b antigens on the blood cells and neither of the corresponding antibodies against them in the serum. Blood type O has neither antigen on the cells but has antibodies a and b in the serum."
