Infinite: Starting from Resident Evil

Just like the two female androids that Shen Ye was going to meet.

They were two red-haired girls, one was Divala with slightly wavy hair, and the other was Popola with straight, shoulder-length hair and bangs.

They are sisters, twin androids created since human times, "antiques" that have existed for thousands of years.

At this moment, the two android girls squatted on the ground, picking out some oil- and mud-covered parts collected from the mechanical lifeforms. They then packed the usable parts into wooden boxes and moved them into the cargo bed of the transport vehicle next to them.

They continued in this way, without feeling hardship or fatigue, and without any complaints.

After all, they were doing work that even the androids considered dirty and tiring, but they didn't slack off or do anything lazy; on the contrary, they did it very seriously.

Even so, some androids standing by and watching shouted, "What's going on? You guys are too slow. The repair department is waiting for you urgently. No wonder it's a defective machine; you can't even do this simple thing right."

"I'm so sorry, please wait a little longer, it will be done soon." Divara, with her wavy hair, said softly with her head down. She had injured one leg, which made it very inconvenient for her to carry heavy objects.

Beside her, her younger sister, Popola, also kept her head down, not saying a word, but quickened her pace, trying to carry more goods to relieve her sister's burden.

"You always say that. Honestly, just destroy any defective machine. Why keep it around and waste energy?" another android said.

Upon hearing this, the two red-haired android girls lowered their heads even further, but did not utter a word of rebuttal.

With great difficulty, Divara placed the box, weighing several hundred kilograms, onto the truck bed. Before she could even turn around, the box suddenly slid down from above. Although she managed to stop it with quick reflexes, she wasn't a machine specifically designed for heavy work, and her legs were also injured, causing her body to sway under the weight.

Upon seeing this, her younger sister, who had just returned, quickly put down the box she was carrying and rushed over to help, but it was too late; Divala's body was already bent over by the weight.

Just as Divala was about to give up, a hand suddenly appeared behind her and pressed down on the box. With a gentle push from the owner of the hand, the box was pushed back to its original position.

"Thank you, Shen!"

Divara knew without turning around who had helped her; apart from him, the other androids in the entire camp had never given them a kind look.

"Sorry, I didn't know you were working so early today," Shen Ye said softly.

"No need to apologize, that would only make me feel more guilty," Divala said, then lowered her head and walked past Shen Ye to continue carrying the boxes.

Shen Ye sighed, tossed the bag he had brought with him to Yakoll, who was standing nearby, and offered to help.

"Thank you!"

Another "thank you" rang in my ears, this time from my younger sister, Popola. But after saying thank you, she hurriedly walked away again.

"Hey, why are you helping them? Don't forget, they are sinners, flawed androids."

"I'd rather!" Shen Ye glanced at the android who had spoken and continued, "If you say another word, believe me, I'll take one of your legs."

The android remained silent. How could he possibly disbelieve? Those androids who didn't believe him last time are still lying in the repair department!

"Whatever, help them if you want." The android muttered something, but when he saw Shen Ye glaring at him fiercely, he took a few steps back in fear.

He didn't want to be crippled. After all, he was just a logistics-type android. Compared to the most important combat-type android, the maintenance department would never waste a single resource on him. If his legs were broken, he would have to spend his whole life doing odd jobs in the maintenance department.

With Shen Ye's help, the boxes were quickly loaded onto the transport vehicle, and as the vehicle drove away, the android sisters walked up to him.

"You've worked hard, Shen. Have some water." Divara wiped her oily hands on her clothes, then took out a bottle of water from behind her and handed it to Shen Ye.

They were created during the human era and can not only drink water but also eat, making them quite advanced and sophisticated machines.

Shen Ye didn't mind the stains left on the water bottle, took it and took a big gulp, then handed it back.

Diva shook the water bottle and found that there wasn't much water left. She handed it to her sister and said, "Actually, you don't need to come every day."

"Anyway, I'm bored, so it's good to do some exercise," Shen Ye said with a smile.

But Yakoll, standing beside him, gave him a disdainful look and muttered something like, "Didn't you only come to help because the sisters are pretty?"

Chapter 260! Fruit Wine

……

Although Yakoor's voice was very soft, Shen Ye and the twin sisters heard it clearly.

However, Yako had said this more than once. Almost every time Shen Ye helped the twin sisters, she would mutter something similar, but the twin sisters never took Yako's words seriously.

Actually, the two of them were still a little curious as to why Shen Ye would help them, after all, they were sinners, "defective" beings, hated and despised by all the artificial humans.

They just didn't dare to ask.

After a brief silence, the twin sisters invited the two men to sit at their place for a while.

Yakol was reluctant, as she was still thinking about going out to collect materials to make soap, but Shen Ye followed them with great interest, so Yakol had no choice but to go along.

Although they are artificial beings that existed since the human era, the twin sisters are treated very poorly. Their living quarters are extremely simple, consisting of just a tent made of a few tattered pieces of cloth, which is drafty and looks very pitiful.

The tent was filled with all sorts of odds and ends, things the two sisters had collected while scavenging for trash and found useful. In the middle of the odds and ends was a bed made of several planks of wood, without a mattress, just a sheet covering it. Perhaps because of the strong wind that morning, the bed was covered in dust.

Divala, the older sister, found a rag, wiped them down briefly, and then invited Shen Ye and Yako to sit down.

Shen Ye didn't think anything of it and sat down without a thud, but Yakoll frowned in disgust. This android of unknown origin had an unusual germaphobia, so she just stood to the side.

The twin sisters didn't care about her actions, or perhaps they didn't even notice. As the younger sister, Popola, moved a worn-out table and placed it in front of Shen Ye, Divara carefully took out a bottle and a few cups from a broken cabinet and placed them on the table.

Shen Ye picked up the bottle without hesitation, opened the cap and took a sniff. Immediately, a smell of alcohol mixed with fruity aroma wafted out.

"This is fruit wine made from the fruit you sent last time. We only distilled it once, so the alcohol content isn't very high. Try it," Divala said, pushing a glass towards Shen Ye.

Shen Ye poured himself a small glass of fruit wine and drank it all in one gulp. Then he smacked his lips and said, "Hmm, it tastes pretty good."

"I'm glad you like it." Divala smiled and poured herself a glass, a large one.

Under her sister Popola's disapproving gaze, she took a big gulp, her eyes immediately narrowing, and then said, "You've helped us so many times and haven't looked down on us sinners. This is all we have to offer you. But speaking of which, even the ingredients for brewing were delivered by you. We didn't actually do anything."

Shen Ye poured another glass, but this time he only took a small sip, then sighed and said, "Actually, you've already done enough."

He said this seriously, and it was a double entendre. Although the twin sisters were portrayed as sinners and as flawed beings, the past events were not entirely their fault. The ultimate fate of humanity should not be blamed on them.

For thousands of years, the twin sisters have been atoning for their sins, but to this day, most artificial humans still do not understand them.

Perhaps understanding the meaning behind Shen Ye's words, the twin sisters showed gratitude on their faces, but it only lasted for a moment before they quickly calmed down again.

“What’s the point of doing more? We’ve already failed.” Divallos took another sip of her drink, her tone tinged with sadness. “Besides, we’ve gotten used to it.”

“No one gets used to doing these dirty and tiring jobs,” Shen Ye shook his head and retorted.

Divalla's expression was bitter as she said, "What can we do? We've been implanted with a program that makes us feel guilty towards all androids. Unless this program is removed, we can only continue like this. But no one will remove it for us, and no one has the authority to do so, unless..."

Having said that, she downed the wine in her glass in one gulp and fell silent.

But even though she didn't say it, Shen Ye understood what she wanted to say and continued, "Unless a human being washes away your so-called sins, right?"

The twin sisters nodded together.

“But that’s basically impossible. No human would forgive the mistakes we made, at least that’s what we think. And so many years have passed, the humans on the moon have probably forgotten about us long ago,” Popola said, who hadn’t spoken until now.

They're all dead, of course they've forgotten you... Shen Ye thought to himself, but a barely perceptible smile flashed in his eyes.

Yako noticed the smile in Shen Ye's eyes and knew exactly what he was thinking. After giving him a warning glare, she said to the twin sisters, "Not necessarily. Maybe there are still humans who remember you. Perhaps one day he will appear and announce to all the androids that he forgives your past mistakes."

"If only that day would come." After downing a glass of wine, Divala's face had turned bright red. Her stomach, which could break down alcohol, allowed her to experience the same reactions as humans when drunk. Hearing Yakol's words, she stared ahead with hazy eyes, lost in thought.

Unfortunately, she wasn't actually drunk; it was just one drink. So she felt it was just an unrealistic fantasy, and her eyes quickly cleared.

"By the way, you guys got up so early today, is there something you need to do?"

Divallo's mood changed quickly. She held the wine glass between two fingers, swirling it as she asked.

Shen Ye raised his chin slightly towards Yakoll and said, "Yes, accompany her out to collect some materials for making soap."

"I see!" Divala nodded, then said, "Could you also collect some fruit for us?"

"Was it used to brew wine again?" Shen Ye asked. "Did you finish it so quickly?"

“How could that be? It was just my sister drinking. How could she finish it so quickly? Besides, she’s been gradually reducing her intake.” Popola shook her head. She used to like drinking, but she quit after the incident. Now, her sister likes to drink, but thankfully, her sister has also started to quit drinking.

She then added, "We fixed an ice maker yesterday and wanted to make some ice cream. In this hot weather, there's nothing more comforting than a bite of fruit-flavored ice cream."

"That's true. Okay, I'll bring you some when I come back." Shen Ye naturally wouldn't refuse to help with something so easy, and readily agreed.

……

Chapter 261! A Promise

……

Since Shen Ye finally had someone to drink with, his older sister Divala naturally wouldn't let him leave so soon. At her instruction, his younger sister Popola brought out some food to accompany the drinks.

Those were simple smoked meats, mainly made from wild boar and venison that could be found everywhere near the camp.

Shen Ye picked up a piece of smoked venison and, imitating the way Slavs drank alcohol that he had seen in short videos, first smelled it, then took a sip of the liquor, and finally took a big bite of the smoked meat.

To be honest, the smoked meat had no other flavor besides the smoky taste, not even salt. After chewing a few times, there was a faint fishy smell. However, it had a unique flavor, and Shen Ye actually enjoyed it very much.

"Try it!"

Shen Ye handed the half-eaten piece of smoked meat to Yako. The android girl, who had a phobia of germs, frowned in disgust but still took it. After taking a bite, she showed an even more disgusted expression.

“It’s not good,” Jakoll said bluntly. “It’s not even a tenth as good as what you make.”

The twin sisters looked at Shen Ye curiously, and Popola even asked, "Can you cook too?"
