Across Deep Space: Four Men and a Play

11:49 am.

"Sorry, I'm late."

Li Shen looked at the person sitting on the sofa and waiting for him obediently, and apologized first.

Xia Jiumeng, who was originally a little confused, turned around immediately when she heard his voice. Seeing the tall and handsome man walking towards her, she subconsciously reached out for a hug.

"it's okay."

"Well, are you sleepy?"

Li Shen's Adam's apple moved slightly, and he leaned over and held her in his arms. His big, bony hands wrapped around her white, tender but slightly cold little feet.

Xia Jiumeng shook her head and said, "Not bad."

She obediently let the man warm her feet.

Seeing her well-behaved appearance, Li Shen couldn't help but kiss her cheek. "Why did you delay for so long in Tianxing?"

"In trouble?"

"No, it's just the finishing work that took up some time, and Miaomiao..."

"She has been adopted. It is said that she is your subordinate." As the person who arranged Miaomiao's identity, Li Shen naturally knew who adopted her.

However, he had rarely seen Dong Yun, and the few times they had spoken they had only spoken through voice, and he did not recognize him.

"Yes, it's Dongyun." Xia Jiumeng nodded.

Li Shen's expression became clear when he heard this. "No wonder the voice sounds familiar."

"Are you planning to keep her in the base?"

"For now. Even though the people at Ever don't care, if a dead person reappears, there's no guarantee they won't attack again to silence him."

Speaking of this, Xia Jiumeng recalled the mutants he had seen in Linkong. "Li Shen, do you still remember those strange mutants we saw during the Luoxia mission?"

Li Shen: "Why bring this up?"

"I saw Xiaosen after you left. The infection on him disappeared in just a few days."

"And during the mission, I accidentally broke into a restricted area of ​​Tianxing."

"It's an abandoned experimental base with many mutants..."

Xia Jiumeng talked about some of the things she had seen, but concealed the existence of Xia Yizhuo and just said that she discovered it by accident.

Li Shen listened to her words and pondered for a long time before speaking slowly.

"If I'm not mistaken, that place is probably the former site of the Blue Gold Biological Research Institute, which is supported by Ever."

"Blue Gold Research Institute?" Xia Jiumeng looked at him in confusion.

"Yeah." Li Shen nodded and opened his mobile phone to show Xia Jiumeng the information about the research institute.

[The Blue Gold Research Institute is dedicated to the research of core technology and core biotechnology. ** years ago, the research base located in the ** District of Tianxing City was attacked by a stray body, resulting in the leakage of energy pollution in the core laboratory, causing ** injuries, ** deaths, and ** infections.

Later, the area was evacuated by the Far Space Fleet and the Evol government, and designated as a restricted area. Fines were then imposed, leading to the closure of the experimental base. It was later acquired by the Ever Group and is now...

After Xia Jiumeng finished reading the information, she returned the phone to Li Shen. "It's them again."

"It seems that the accident was not simple either."

"Perhaps, based on what you said, it's very likely that someone is still secretly using that place and conducting experiments."

As Li Shen spoke, he casually placed his phone on the sofa and pulled a thin blanket over her.

The night was cool.

Xia Jiumeng: "Indeed, and those people may already have drugs that can suppress mutations. As for whether there are any side effects or anything else, I don't know."

"The fact that they didn't disclose it proves that there must be something wrong with the drug."

After all, a company as evil as Ever must need a lot of money for various research. If there really is such a drug with no side effects and can inhibit infection, they can't not release it, even in a small amount.

But so far, there is no similar medicine on the market, either openly or secretly, which is very strange.

"Well, what you said about Xiaosen being implanted with a chip reminded me of a research topic I heard about before." Li Shen looked at her and said.

"What subject?"

"Before graduation, I heard about this research topic at the World Biotechnology Academic Forum. It uses core energy and mechanical technology to transform and strengthen parts of the human body, allowing ordinary people to have powerful attack power and speed to fight against wandering bodies."

"Even the replacement of mechanical organs can extend human life to a certain extent..."

At that time, Li Shen was still engrossed in his research at school and did not pay much attention to this matter.

But I still have an impression.

Xia Jiumeng: "...."

"Human body mechanical transformation is really something you can come up with."

This is crazy, right?

"really."

Li Shen nodded in agreement, but he did not agree with such a transformation.

Birth, aging, sickness and death are the natural cycle and the meaning of life. The results of self-transformation and breaking the rules are not necessarily good.

When all the parts and organs of a person's body become machines, is he a human or a machine?

How to tell the difference?

Even behavioral consciousness is controlled by chips. How should we define him or "it" humans?

These are questions that cannot be further explored.

"What a bunch of lunatics." Xia Jiumeng complained.

"Indeed, but these transformations should not be given to ordinary people."

After all, the cost of making a mechanical body is not a small amount, and ordinary people cannot afford it.

Li Shen: "But I seem to have heard of the Turing chip you mentioned."

Xia Jiumeng: "Have you heard of it?"

Li Shen: "Well, I heard the teacher mention it a long time ago. I'll ask the teacher when I have time and tell you."

Xia Jiumeng nodded, "Okay, no rush."

"By the way, have you been working overtime recently?"

Xia Jiumeng asked, looking at his dark circles under his eyes.

Li Shen nodded without hiding anything and said, "Yes, there has been a surge in supernatural energy recently, and there are a lot more patients with heart diseases." This also led to a lot more patients being seen by him after he came back from Tianxing, and he even had to work overtime.

"Is that so? Then let's rest early today." Xia Jiumeng looked at him with some heartache. She had been waiting for him to come back to have a midnight snack and rest with him.

Li Shen nodded. "Okay."

"I'll take you back to your room first."

Li Shen carried her directly to the bedroom. After settling her down, he was about to turn around and go back to his guest bedroom when he found that his clothes were pulled.

Facing Li Shen's questioning gaze, Xia Jiumeng pointed to the bathroom in her room and said, "How about...staying here with me?"

Li Shen's green eyes instantly turned deep when he heard that, and his Adam's apple moved slightly. "Are you sure?"

The man's voice was deep and magnetic, like a brush that inexplicably made her heart feel numb, and her cheeks blushed unnaturally.

"Well... My bathroom is very clean. I thought it would be troublesome for you to go back and wash up... If you don't want to, forget it."

She turned around a little embarrassedly and buried herself in the quilt.

Even after being invited, Li Shen still has to ask.

Let him go back to sleep in the guest room.

"I want to." Seeing her like this, Li Shen's calm face curled up a faint smile, and he stepped forward to pull back the quilt. "Don't be so depressed."

“╭(╯^╰)╮.”

He smiled and lowered his head to her, kissing her lightly on the cheek.

"I accept your invitation. I'm going to wash up. You can go to bed first if you're tired."

Faced with the invitation from his sweetheart, he couldn't bear to refuse.

Maybe... he could have a little chance.

He had always been rational, but once he got close to her, he would sink into depravity and indulgence uncontrollably, but he was willing to sink into depravity in these few bits of fragmented time.

He didn't dare to ask for too much, he just wanted a little bit of warmth, even if it was just for a short moment...

Xia Jiumeng keenly felt the sadness that flashed across Li Shen's body.

Pretending to be sleepy, he rubbed his eyes and said, "Hurry up, I'm a little sleepy."

"it is good."

Li Shen collected his thoughts, got up, went to his guest bedroom to change into pajamas, took his toiletries and returned to the bathroom in her room to wash up.

Xia Jiumeng saw this and said, “….”

Never mind, I didn’t see it.

[ps: I didn’t expect that it was our Qin Che who was so far ahead!

After reading Li Shen’s main storyline, well, it’s a bit of a hit-the-artery situation.

I want to write about him! I'll write about Qin Che and Li Shen's main storyline once our heroine and Xiaoyu come back!
