Chapter 142. Monkey Business!
Arc 5 : Wasteland World Movie Nightmare.
After Du Yan read the rumor, he turned to another page and saw a familiar photo.
It seems that the First Research Institute has become desperate and has even published a wanted notice in the 《Infected Weekly》.
It even published a photo of Du Yan. The photo was of 16-year-old Du Yan, participating in an insignificant research project, which was consistent with the researcher identity mentioned above.
Shen Heng seemed to notice something was wrong with Du Yan, so he stopped the vehicle, leaned over, and asked: “What are you looking at? Are you unhappy?”
Du Yan unfolded the newspaper for Shen Heng to see and curled his lips: “Those people in the research institute are really annoying. I guess I can forget about going to other Homelands now.”
Shen Heng looked at the photo and suddenly said: “I’ve seen this photo before.”
“Oh?” Du Yan felt that the other party seemed to have let go of something, so he asked: “Where have you seen it?”
Shen Heng said: “It’s almost time now, let’s stay here for a night and talk about this.”
The two jumped out of the vehicle and went around to the rear compartment. Du Yan leaned on the sofa and watched Shen Heng rummaging through a pile of debris for a long time before handing over a folder.
After leaving the trading center that day, Shen Heng directly put the folder in the cabinet in the back of the ‘behemoth’. He knew that Du Yan didn’t like to look for things, so just casually threw it in the utility cabinet, and it wouldn’t be found.
Du Yan opened the folder and dumped out the contents. The first thing that came into view was a pile of photos, and the last was a diagnostic report.
“……”
Du Yan was really speechless. Dr. Jin really liked to use this trick to deceive people. He used this trick to deceive him before, and now he is still using this trick to deceive Shen Heng.
Although from the current situation, Shen Heng did not believe Dr. Jin’s lies, he did not ask him before either, which means that he had doubts in his heart.
Du Yan is not a stingy person. He has deceived Shen Heng so many times, so he will not unreasonably ask the other party to trust him completely.
“Dr. Jin, did he say that I have psychological problems?” Du Yan asked directly: “Did he also say that he is my Gege?”
Shen Heng was stunned. He didn’t expect that Du Yan could guess the conversation between him and Dr. Jin almost exactly by just looking at a few photos.
“Yes, yes.” Shen Heng saw that Du Yan looked unhappy and explained: “I didn’t believe him, I just thought he looked a bit like you.”
Du Yan saw Shen Heng’s nervous look and laughed out loud: “It’s ok, I almost believed his lies at first, I don’t blame you.”
Shen Heng felt relieved and told Du Yan everything that had happened with Dr. Jin that day, and also told Du Yan in detail the evidence of the Du family members murder.
Du Yan pondered for a while and said, “Actually, when I got information from Old K that day and learned that it was people from the First Research Institute who induced him into doing these things, I thought about it and felt that the Du family incident was probably instigated by Dr. Jin.”
After hearing this, Shen Heng suddenly said: “Actually, when I met Dr. Jin, apart from being a little surprised at first because he looked like you, my instinct told me afterward that there was something wrong with this person.”
“Your instinct is really sharp.” Du Yan said: “Dr. Jin is a very indifferent person to human lives. In his eyes, human life is divided into two categories, useful and useless. In his eyes, useless people are not as good as a set of experimental data.”
Shen Heng frowned and asked: “What about the surveillance video? They are framing you like this. What will you do in the future…”
Du Yan shrugged: “It’s very easy for them to falsify surveillance videos. It’s just that I can’t enter other Homelands. I don’t really care about that anyway.”
Du Yan stopped and looked at Shen Heng: “But I know that now that you know the truth, you will always want to be a hero, after all, it involves the lives of two children.”
Shen Heng nodded: “These are two innocent children. I will definitely punish the murderer, Dr. Jin.”
“Dr. Jin, will have to pay the price one day.” Du Yan just smiled and ended the conversation.
After one night, the two continued on their journey.
When approaching the high radiation zone, Shen Heng had already sensitively sensed the change in radiation intensity and stopped the vehicle. Du Yan knew what he meant and jumped out of the vehicle to look around.
The specific location of the underground research institute was not obtained from Homeland No. 5. After all, it was the place where the original Adam’s body was stored, so the location must have been set to top secret level.
But Du Yan knew how to find the mysterious underground research institute.
Because there were some unknown memories in his mind. At first, Du Yan couldn’t figure out where these memories came from, which were obviously not Homeland scenes but more like pre-war scenes.
He originally thought that it was Dr. Jin, who tampered with his memory. After learning the truth about the Adam Project, Du Yan speculated that the memory fragment should be from the original Adam.
It was just a short and messy fragment, but it was enough for Du Yan to find the exact location of the underground research institute.
Although the scene before him is completely different from before the nuclear war, some things will not change, such as the position of the sun at a fixed time and the shape of the mountains in the distance.
After looking around for a while, Du Yan jumped into the vehicle and patted Shen Heng: “Go that way.”
Shen Heng saw that the direction Du Yan pointed to was not the direction where the radiation concentration was rising rapidly, so he turned the steering wheel and drove in that direction.
After driving in this direction for a while, the surrounding environment became somewhat different, which showed that there were a large number of human activities here.
Shen Heng was experienced and could tell at a glance that something was wrong here. He frowned and said: “Why are there traces of human activity here? Although the radiation here is not too high, it is not suitable for human habitation.”
Du Yan said: “There will be something more eye-opening for you later. The people who appear here are not Infected. Okay, let’s park here, and we will sneak in quietly after nightfall.”
According to Du Yan’s analysis, the mecha troops stationed here should stay in the underground research institute, but regular ground patrols are definitely necessary.
In order to avoid encountering mecha troops, it is better to find a place to hide and understand the patrol rules first.
Although Shen Heng is very powerful and should have no problem fighting a team of mecha troops, in such a fierce battle, he may not be able to spare the time to protect Du Yan.
Du Yan is very aware of his own weak strength. If he is unlucky, a stray bullet will kill him. As for mind control, the enemy is hiding in the mecha, and he can not see the opponent’s eyes, so he can’t operate it.
In order to avoid bad luck and death in such an unimportant place, Du Yan decided to use sneak attack tactics.
Although Shen Heng was a little confused, he had gotten used to Du Yan’s mysterious ways. Since the other person was so insistent, he followed his lead and found a high ground with a great view to hide.
The ‘behemoth’ was hidden by Shen Heng among a pile of rocks. The two of them stayed on a high place and looked into the distance.
Du Yan naturally couldn’t see anything, but Shen Heng was an extremely useful telescope.
After everything was settled, Du Yan sat back on the rock and said to Shen Heng with a smile: “Okay, we’ve come this far, there are some things I can tell you.”
Shen Heng was somewhat helpless and asked: “You were not hiding this from me because you were worried that I would not bring you here, were you?”
Du Yan didn’t feel guilty at all when his true thoughts were exposed. After all, Shen Heng had already discovered his true nature in Old K’s place, so there was nothing to hide now.
He nodded: “Yes, if you knew there are mecha troops stationed here, you definitely wouldn’t have brought me here to take risks.”
“…” Shen Heng couldn’t believe his ears: “Mecha troops? How many are there?”
Du Yan thought for a moment and said: “I don’t know, but at least it’s more than the total number of troops stationed at Homeland No. 5.”
When Shen Heng heard this, his eyebrows knitted together, and he said: “Monkey business! Get out of here right now.”
Du Yan curled his lips when he heard this: “Why, the strongest Infected is afraid of the mecha troops?”
Shen Heng said directly: “I’m afraid. The mecha troops are not difficult to deal with, but I can’t guarantee that I can completely protect you in a battle, and your ability probably won’t work in this situation…”
He originally wanted to analyze the risk of this trip and let Du Yan back off, but he didn’t expect Du Yan’s reaction to be to clap his hands and say this happily.
“We really have a tacit understanding. I think so, too.”
“……”
Shen Heng fell silent. Since Du Yan had already considered all this, judging from his past performance, he was not the kind of person who could not tell right from wrong and acted recklessly.
“That’s why I asked you to hide here. Let’s observe their patrol routes first.”
“These mecha troops cannot stay in the mecha for a long time. The current mecha consumes a lot of energy and can not last that long. They must have taken off the mecha when they stayed in the underground shelter.”
“Then we just need to deal with the guard at the door, and we can go in smoothly.”
Du Yan smiled proudly: “Then it’s my turn to perform.”
Shen Heng pondered for a while and felt that Du Yan’s plan was indeed feasible. He also knew that this person looked gentle and naive on the surface but was actually quite stubborn.
Even if he forcefully takes Du Yan away this time, this little liar will find a way to leave. Although Du Yan claimed that he could not control an Infected like himself with a strong will, Shen Heng believed that his will was not so indestructible when facing Du Yan.
From this perspective, Shen Heng only has one choice left, which is to follow Du Yan’s wishes.
The two of them followed Du Yan’s plan and hid on the high slope for a day and a night. Shen Heng had memorized the patrol routes and rules of the mecha troops.
