The protagonist chased the villain, and Tiandao screamed in anger

"Hello, Dr. You." Du Yansheng turned around and looked over when his observation was interrupted.

He had been feeling resentful since he learned that his superiors were going to assign new people from different camps. Therefore, he had no extra desire to communicate.

But this did not prevent Du Yansheng from openly looking at and observing this competitor.

It seemed that he had an accident on the way back. The clothes under his coat were wrinkled and dirty, and there was a large bloodstain on his waist and abdomen. He must have suffered serious injuries.

There were some scrapes and wounds on his left arm, which the other person was stroking with his other hand.

What is most concerning is probably the other person's face, which is pale but still stunning.

Although he had never met this important member of the Crested Ibis Organization before, he had heard of him. When he saw him, he finally understood what those people meant by "never forgetting him".

"Dr. Du, I've heard a lot about you." Similarly, You Mu naturally had no intention of chatting with the other party. After all, from the beginning, they had an antagonistic relationship.

In fact, the current situation is very clear. He, You Mu, to put it bluntly, is here to grab Du Yansheng's position.

You Mu looked at the experimental subjects through the glass wall. He paused and said, "It seems that the rumors are true. Dr. Du has a very harmonious relationship with the experimental subjects."

One call and one response, it's quite harmonious.

Following You Mu's gaze, Du Yansheng turned his head and was surprised to find that in just a short while, the protective film on 049's compound eyes had fallen off.

"The vision should be perfect, so what do we look like in its eyes?" Du Yansheng muttered to himself with his palm against the glass, and his attention was drawn again.

"By the way, which experimental subject is assigned to me?" Turning around, You Mu asked General Qi who was watching from the side.

"The base commander wants you to choose any one you like. There are currently three living test subjects. In addition to 049 in front of you, there are 033 and 032. You should have seen the other two before."

"All test subjects that have been confirmed to have lost vital signs are stored in the freezing chamber on the seventh floor underground. If you need to study them, you can go and check them yourself."

General Qi naturally understood that this question was addressed to Dr. Du, and he interrupted Dr. Du's monologue with his habitual loud voice.

"Dr. Du, please bring out the information of these three test subjects for Dr. You to review."

"...Okay, wait a moment." To put it nicely, it was to help him share the workload, but to put it bluntly, it was no different from robbery. But even if Du Yansheng didn't like the task assigned by the superiors, he had no room to refuse.

Signaling his assistant Xiao Lin to take out the information, Du Yansheng stared closely at You Mu's movements of flipping through the documents, then turned to look at 049 in the glass, and vaguely discovered that the experimental subject seemed to be looking at the new Dr. You.

The pupil-less honeycomb compound eyes clearly had no direction of rotation or focus, but Du Yansheng intuitively felt that 049 seemed to be looking at You Mu.

It was very strange, and he inexplicably felt a sense of crisis. Du Yansheng was wary of You Mu's actions, and was somewhat concerned that the other party would snatch away his important research target.

"Then I will choose..."

The voice was a little drawn out. You Mu stroked the pages in the folder with his fingertips, looked up at Du Yansheng, who couldn't help but look slightly grim, and finished his sentence.

"Let's call it 033. He was once a member of Crested Ibis's experiment. I'm quite familiar with him. Although all of Crested Ibis's information has been destroyed internally, we are not completely clueless. As of this month, 032 seems to be in hibernation, so don't move it."

His sight shifted again to the insect moving closer to the branch. You Mu smiled and looked at Du Yansheng who was obviously relieved.

"049... Let Dr. Du keep it. I don't like ugly things." After closing the folder and handing it to the assistant beside him, You Mu gathered his coat and turned to leave.

"... Ahem, General Qi, please take me back to the lounge and call some medical staff for me." The effect of the painkiller was almost wearing off, and the pain in his abdomen began to appear. He was exhausted after rushing back, and he could hardly stand.

This was the first time he had experienced such a weak body!

"Okay, come with me." Hearing You Mu coughing, General Qi immediately became nervous and was about to leave with You Mu.

They have worked so hard to dig up this precious treasure and are waiting to bring glory to the radicals, so nothing can go wrong!

"By the way, Xiao Du, Li Shen is back too. He should come to see you later." At last, General Qi followed suit and joined in the gossip.

Although factional disputes continue, most of the time, the disputes are based on discussions about survivor issues. The starting points are all good, but differences in positions lead to disagreements.

Putting aside the major issues, General Qi was still very happy to see the young people getting along well with their partners.

After all, there are not many people who can maintain their true feelings in the end times.

"Thank you. I'll make a note of that, Uncle Qi." When Du Yansheng mentioned his lover, a rare blush appeared on his face. He nodded in response and tacitly put aside the issues of faction.

After standing there for a while, Du Yansheng handed the task of observing 049 to Xiaolin, and went back to the lounge to change clothes and wait for his lover to arrive.

049, who was trapped in the glass house, slowly shrank back into the tree hole. His shallow consciousness and limited brain capacity replayed the words that the human had just uttered over and over again.

What does "丑" mean? This character doesn't sound kind.

...Is it ugly? Does that mean it's bad?

...Like what is it...don't like...it?
