28- Zymachi, lost for Ever?
	In the meanwhile Hu is analyzing samples of Kerenskij's blood. She's looking for some genetic marers that Zymachi produce as feedback. You need millions of Zymachi in your bloodstream to detect their radio signals, so the professor invented this chemical "shortcut". Unfortunately the analysis gives no responseand the two scientists review all the possible causes: analysis failure, malfunction, reboot failure, damaged or sabotaged Zymachi. The list is endless!
	Hu has a theory: during reboot, the antennas must resonate synchronically, as the Zymachi stay in touch in order to damp quantistic indetermination. If they are dispersed in the blood stream, mutual control cannot take place. "They are designed to stay in formation..." says Kerenskij. Hu:- "Ok, let's state that they are still toghether. What if the antennas have been cut to different lenghts, they couldn't resonate synchronically, like different strings of a guitar!.."
29- A Skirmish.
	"So you are saying that it's my fault if Zymachi are lost!" shouts Kerenskij, visibly altered, drenched again in sweat. A harsh confrontation starts, Kerenskij slams the young woman's computer to the floor, she sets in a defensive martial art posture. The old russian stops, intimidated, and withdrawals in his private studio, not without criticizing Hu's posture: "You put too much weight on the front foot..." The woman responds bitterly in mandarin, but too late: the door is already shut.
30- Tales from the Cycle.
