Features: In 2041, coastal areas of China were struck by floods, while sandstorms in Beijing swept like demons, blinding people. Many fell ill, exhaling black air that made them feel nauseous. These phenomena caught my attention. After a year of investigation, I discovered that pests were the culprit! Due to their destruction of trees, soil erosion occurred, leading to floods and unrestrained sandstorms; without trees to purify the air, people’s exhaled breath turned black. Upon realizing the cause, my heart trembled: as a renowned scientist, could I let pests destroy humanity’s home? Just then, the croaking of frogs outside my window drew my attention. Inspired, I ran out of my office and went to a frog farm.
I spent the afternoon there, roughly calculating that 10 frogs had captured over 1,000 pests in half a day—far exceeding my expectations! I had assumed that a single frog could catch only a dozen or so insects in half a day. I thought: If frogs were cloned into an army, wouldn’t pests be eradicated? So, I captured 20 frogs and, with my skillful hands, cloned 10 million of them! Of course, an overpopulation of frogs could also lead to disaster. To control their movement, I equipped each frog with a microcomputer and had my assistants number each one. These computers ran a special program: if the frogs rebelled, the program would automatically cut off their blood supply.
After repeated research and experiments, I continuously improved the control program. Within less than half a year, these cloned frogs had evolved from cold-blooded animals into highly intelligent beings, with IQs close to humans. I transported these cloned frogs to various regions via helicopters. Then, I returned to my office and turned on the TV to watch the news. Suddenly, a shocking report was broadcast: there were many dead frogs in the rice fields of Beijing. Upon hearing this, I couldn’t help but shiver. I rushed to the scene that night and, through meticulous research, discovered that the frogs had died from blood loss shock.
I immediately returned to the lab, deep in thought: What could have caused this? Ah, it must be the computer program! I immediately gathered all my assistants to check the program. As expected, a virus named "Cold-Blood" had appeared in the microcomputer’s code. I called in "virus experts" and used advanced remote virus-erasing software. With just a few keystrokes, countless cloned frogs were once again ready to fight against pests.
