Ping Chengcheng looked at Shen Mengyuan, unsure if what she said was true or false. However… since Shen Mengyuan knew about the Variants, the possibility should be quite high.

“Tsk, I’ll believe you for now.”

“Speak, what do you want me to do for you?”

Shen Mengyuan shook her head, their voices echoing in the corridor: “Just be friends, and besides, I actually have a very bad relationship with Lu Linyuan.”

As she spoke, a fierce look appeared in her eyes.

Oh? Ping Chengcheng chuckled. It seemed there was something interesting. But she still didn’t plan to get too close to Shen Mengyuan; she felt that many things that had happened recently were gradually slipping out of her control.

Shen Mengyuan looked at the girl’s guarded expression and shrugged helplessly. After thinking about it, she continued: “It’s like this, even before the apocalypse, I had a bad relationship with him.”

“He was a famous young entrepreneur in S City at the time, clearly had a family, but still took a liking to my mother.”

“But in the end, after giving birth to me, he just sent back a little money every year, ignoring us…”

“What I find most disgusting is! After the apocalypse, I, I fell in love with a girl, but he…”

Ping Chengcheng was stunned, not knowing what to say.

Shen Mengyuan bit her silver teeth, her face only showing hatred. She gave a miserable smile, sighed, and took out a necklace pendant from her pocket, it was a section of pale bone… probably a little finger.

Shen Mengyuan looked at it obsessively.

At this moment, Ping Chengcheng’s heart trembled slightly, staring at Shen Mengyuan’s face. Shen Mengyuan sensed the girl’s gaze, and the two looked at each other.

Haha~

So, they were the same kind of people?

“Hey, they’re all dead, you still carry it with you, do you like her that much?” Ping Chengcheng said with a mocking laugh.

Shen Mengyuan was a little angry when she heard the girl’s words, but the girl’s eyes were staring at her, without the previous ferocity, more like, admiration?

Shen Mengyuan nodded: “Of course… If it weren’t for her at the time, maybe I would have died long ago… Damn, damn it!”

“If I was strong enough, those things wouldn’t have happened!”

She heavily punched the wall of the corridor, her body trembling, panting heavily.

Her heart was only filled with unwillingness. Why, why? She, had to kill, kill Lu Linyuan!

“Are you a Variant? Can you tell me, how did you become a Variant?”

If she had the power of a Variant, and she often had opportunities to get close to Lu Linyuan…

Maybe, Shen Mengyuan could really kill him!

“Variant? That, should be gene mutation?” Ping Chengcheng said in a flat tone. This should be a variant of the zombie virus, the first wave becoming zombies was one type, and the subsequent Variants entered a latent period for a long time until they mutated one day.

Variant Body? Research materials for Variant Bodies were very scarce, and even if there were similar conclusions, Ping Chengcheng’s identity in her previous life would be unknown, could it also be a variant of the zombie virus?

Shen Mengyuan revealed a regretful look.

“By the way, why do you trust me so much? Telling me these things?” Ping Chengcheng crossed her arms, leaning against the cold wall, a pair of eyes revealing a scarlet strangeness in the dimness, but it made Shen Mengyuan feel very close.

“This…” She blinked her eyes.

“I think, we are the same kind of people.”

Ping Chengcheng laughed: “Not bad, I feel the same way.”

Suddenly, many desires to confide appeared in her heart. No one could understand her feelings, no one could understand her love… She, was her love really love?

The corners of her eyes felt sore, and for some reason, tears flowed from the girl’s eyes.

Just like Song Ning said… Song Ning thought that her love didn’t count as love, it was just a possessiveness, a desire to control? But…

The girl’s eyes were distracted, a little confused. Was she really wrong? No! She felt that she was not wrong!

To love someone was to use every means to firmly grasp them in the palm of her hand!

In Shen Mengyuan’s sight, the girl’s eyes were scattered for a while, firm for a while, and radiated a violent aura for a while.

“It looks like you’ve been in a bad mood recently, are we friends now?”

“Try to say it? Maybe I can listen to your complaints.”

Ping Chengcheng rubbed her sore eyes, sniffled, held back her tears, and showed a heartfelt smile: “Thank you…”

“But forget it, let’s go first.”

Shen Mengyuan nodded, not asking any further.

Two minutes later, the two walked out of the corridor. The interior was a super-large semi-circular space, like a gymnasium in some universities. In the center was a semi-finished mecha, and various engineers and researchers in uniforms were busy around it.

In a corner, five or six researchers were discussing something non-stop, one of whom was the “Lao Gao” whom she had met before. He, who had a gentle appearance, was actually arguing loudly, his face red and his neck thick.

Ping Chengcheng followed Shen Mengyuan to get closer before she could hear clearly.

“I’ve said it all, if you want the wearer to gain strength comparable to those Special Infected, it has to be like this!”

“Otherwise, if you only have strength, how will you fight against those infected?!”

Lao Gao said firmly, pointing to a set of exoskeleton devices on the ground. It looked very hideous, with a black frosted texture on the surface. There seemed to be an energy device on the back, flashing a red-brown dim light.

The remaining personnel looked at each other, unable to express their suffering. In the end, a middle-aged man opened his mouth: “But, the requirements for the wearer are too high, normal humans, it’s difficult to control, right?”

“This is equipment that will be mass-produced in the future, I think, it should be lowered a bit.”

Lao Gao sneered: “What, even if it is mass-produced, there are very few people who are worthy of wearing it. If the equipment made can’t match the functions of the Special Infected, I don’t think it’s worth making.”

The two listened for a long time, until Shen Mengyuan became a little impatient. These lunatics, once they talked about things related to scientific research, they didn’t notice the things around them.

“Lao Gao, I’ve brought the person here.” Shen Mengyuan patted Lao Gao on the shoulder, scaring Lao Gao.

He turned his head and glared at the few people who still wanted to argue with him, then smiled and looked at Ping Chengcheng: “Oh, it’s Miss Ping, thanks to Miss Ping for the materials provided last time.”

“That leg bone, it’s really extraordinary, many parts of our newly created exoskeleton device use it to reduce the weight.”

“Miss Ping, it can be said that it’s all thanks to you that this device can achieve its current performance at this stage.”

As he spoke, Lao Gao became excited again.

“So, I invite you to be the first to test drive it.”

Test drive?

Hearing these words, Ping Chengcheng was a little disappointed. It was just a test? However, the girl was still looking forward to it. This thing was something that ordinary civilians of the base couldn’t touch at all, and the girl hadn’t even touched it in her previous life.

“Thank you… Brother? What should I call you?” The girl tilted her head.

Lao Gao laughed: “Just call me Brother Gao, the name is not important.”

“Thank you, Brother Gao! Hee hee~” The girl’s smile was healing and pure, actually making Lao Gao a little dazed.

“Hey, you’re just letting a little girl be the first test pilot?” An untimely voice sounded, and the middle-aged researcher who had opposed Lao Gao just now couldn’t bear it any longer and glared at the two.

Too ridiculous, it was just an ordinary girl, how could she be able to control this high-performance exoskeleton!? Just kidding!

That was impossible!
