Chapter 145. You Like Me?
Arc 5 : Wasteland World Movie Nightmare.
After leaving Homeland No. 5, Shen Heng had little time to rest, and he had just spent a lot of effort dealing with the mecha troops in the underground laboratory, so Shen Heng also felt a little tired.
He listened to the breathing of the person lying beside him becoming more even, and sleepiness gradually swept over him, and Shen Heng finally fell asleep.
After all, Shen Heng was an Infected, and his five senses were extremely sharp. Du Yan could be said to be the only person who could sleep peacefully when he is around.
But in the middle of the night, Shen Heng still noticed something was wrong. He was startled and jumped out of bed.
The space was empty around him, no one, so Shen Heng subconsciously went towards the door to chase after him.
“What are you looking for?”
A voice came from behind, stopping Shen Heng’s actions.
He turned around and saw Du Yan sitting on the sofa in the corner, staring at the nuclear warhead detonator on the table in the dim light.
Shen Heng suddenly felt that the person sitting there was a little strange, and he asked: “What’s wrong with you?”
Du Yan waved his hand and said: “Come and sit down.”
It was rare for him to show such a controlled expression. Shen Heng walked over and sat next to Du Yan.
Du Yan’s eyes were still on the detonator. He looked at it seriously, as if he was looking at some long-sought-after rare treasure rather than a dangerous thing that could destroy human civilization.
“Do you remember the sentence I said before going to bed?”
Shen Heng asked: “Sentence?”
“I said that antisocial personality is determined by genes, and no one can get rid of it.”
Du Yan laughed very lightly, so light that it seemed like an illusion. After laughing, he continued: “Shen Heng, have you forgotten one thing? I am a clone of the original Adam. My genes are exactly the same as his.”
Shen Heng was stunned, with a bad feeling in his heart. He said: “You are completely different from that person. You are Du Yan.”
Du Yan’s eyes finally moved away from the detonator. He tilted his head as if he was a little confused about Shen Heng’s words.
“Is it different? It is. If I wasn’t Du Yan, I probably wouldn’t be sitting here waiting for you to wake up and chat.”
Shen Heng said: “I know that when you saw everything in the laboratory, although you looked fine on the surface, the shock in your heart must have been much greater than mine.”
“What are you going to do about the fact that I’m a clone?”
Shen Heng was slightly stunned, not knowing how to answer for a moment. Du Yan didn’t care and continued talking.
“But, ever since I learned about the Purification Program, all I could think about was detonating that nuclear warhead and letting everything explode, just like those malicious humans.” Du Yan smiled: “The earth without humans is the cleanest.”
“Do you still think I’m different from them? I’m obviously like this in my bones…”
Shen Heng’s answer was to pick up Du Yan and hold him in his arms.
Caught off guard, Du Yan’s nose was hit by Shen Heng’s hard chest muscles, causing his nose to ache. He subconsciously raised his hand to push Shen Heng, but the other party rubbed his hair again.
“It’s not your fault. I’ll take you to see the world, to every corner, to meet different people. Even in this wasteland, there are still nice people and beautiful things…”
Du Yan was stunned and remained silent for a long time.
After Shen Heng finished saying this, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have used too much force and quickly let go: “Sorry, I think I used too much force.”
Shen Heng thought he would see Du Yan’s complaining or disdainful expression. He never expected that what he saw was Du Yan’s smiling eyes.
Du Yan climbed up from Shen Heng’s arms, then sat on his legs again, staring straight at Shen Heng and asked: “Actually, I have a question that I’ve always wanted to ask you.”
Shen Heng’s throat moved, and he suddenly became a little nervous: “Wh, what?”
“You like me?” Du Yan said confidently. It didn’t sound like a question at all, but a positive statement.
“No, I…”
Shen Heng was caught off guard by the question and had no idea what he was talking about.
“Don’t like, hmm?” Du Yan stretched out his voice, looking a little disappointed.
Shen Heng hated this expression on his face the most. He was about to say that he didn’t mean to dislike, but before he could say anything, he saw Du Yan smile again.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t like me, it’s enough that I like you.”
After saying that, Du Yan lowered his head and kissed Shen Heng on the lips.
In the following time, Shen Heng lost all his rationality. He couldn’t even remember how he picked up Du Yan and pressed him onto the bed.
The only time Shen Heng regained some sanity was when his hand fell on the button of Du Yan’s jeans.
He panted and buried himself in Du Yan’s shoulder, his back trembling slightly from the forced endurance: “No, you are too young…”
Then, he heard Du Yan’s voice, which was very soft but penetrated deep into his heart.
“I forgot to tell you that today is my eighteenth birthday…”
When Shen Heng woke up, he subconsciously leaned to the side, but he only felt the cold air. He opened his eyes, and just like when he woke up in the middle of the night yesterday, there was no one around him.
He stood up and looked at the corner where Du Yan stayed last night. The difference from last night was that there was no one on the sofa in the corner, and only a piece of paper was left on the table where the detonator was placed.
Shen Heng felt cold all over, got out of bed stiffly, and picked up the note on the table.
“The most beautiful thing I’ve ever tried.”
***
Du Yan propped up his chin and looked at the yellow sand passing by below. He felt as if his whole body was run over, and there was no place that was not painful.
Infected and Pure One were not a good match in many ways.
If the aircraft’s automatic driving system wasn’t so useful, Du Yan really doubted whether he would have the strength to run away.
Even Shen Heng’s will was still the most fragile at that moment. Du Yan hypnotized him and gave himself enough time to leave.
Three full days were enough for him to fly a small aircraft and get rid of Shen Heng.
Until now, Xiao Ba was still shocked by Du Yan’s amazing operation: “What kind of scumbag are you? You run away after sleeping?”
Du Yan lazily leaned back in his seat: “That’s wrong. I’m just adding leverage to Shen Heng’s choice of me.”
“……”
Although Du Yan was said to be influenced by the antisocial gene from the original Adam and has some abnormal thoughts, he was actually still within the control of reason.
In this nightmare, Shen Heng never lived for himself, had nothing he really wanted, and was not recognized in the end. All of this constituted the source of this nightmare.
Du Yan thought that it was necessary for him to let Shen Heng have a self-selection process in that selfless state, and now he was perfecting the last step of his plan.
No matter which path Shen Heng chooses, it will not cause him to have a shadow that makes his nightmares worse. After all, even if Shen Heng gives up on antisocial lover with great pain, it is a choice based on his own beliefs. He will feel guilty but will not regret it too much.
Of course, the choice he arranged for Shen Heng would not be too extreme. It would be too cruel to choose between killing his lover and destroying humanity.
Du Yan was not planning to reach the detonation point of the nuclear warhead. Although he was heading in the direction of being the villain, he did not really have the urge to blow up the world.
After all, once a nuclear warhead explodes, all of humanity will be finished, and the dream will collapse as well.
“It’s really uncomfortable to feel like I’m trying so hard to create obstacles for myself.” Du Yan touched his chin: “I decided not to do this when I enter dream next time. It’s so tiring.”
Xiao Ba was still watching the situation, trying to see how Du Yan would save the plot from the brink of destroying all humanity. After all, he knew the other person’s character and would definitely not destroy the antisocial villain persona.
The aircraft continued to move forward towards the destination set by Du Yan for another day, and it seemed that it would reach the destination in half a day.
At this moment, the energy alarm sounded.
Pre-war aircraft all used nuclear fusion batteries. Although the development of various nuclear technologies had been strictly prohibited after the war, there were still many nuclear fusion batteries left from before the war.
With Du Yan’s weak physique, going to the city to collect nuclear fusion batteries by himself was simply courting death. The only way was to find them in the trading market in Infected settlement area outside Homeland.
Du Yan was carrying the high-purity anti-radiation medicines that Shen Heng had prepared for him, which was more than enough to exchange for the nuclear fusion battery.
“Just right time.” Du Yan said, then opened the control panel, cleared the original coordinates, and entered another coordinate.
An hour later, the aircraft landed near Homeland No. 19.
When Du Yan fled, he was well prepared. He had long thought about doing business here, so he naturally took away the cosmetics for disguise.
Du Yan, whose skin was painted black, successfully entered the perimeter of Homeland No. 19. Although he looked thinner than other Infected, he did not attract much special attention.
Du Yan successfully entered the trading market, and after valuing the trading items, he entered the VIP room.
Even though he doesn’t look that strong, Infected walking in this chaotic world know that a young man like Du Yan who dares to walk alone with a large sum of wealth is definitely not as simple as he seems.
He sat in the VIP room of the trading market, looking at the tall and muscular Infected staff in front of him, and stated his request directly.
“I want to exchange for a nuclear fusion battery with a charge level of more than 95 percent.”
The trader showed a somewhat embarrassed expression and said: “Batteries with a charging capacity of more than 95% are relatively rare. It may take some time to wait for the supply…”
“It’s okay, I have the patience to wait.”
Seeing Du Yan’s insistence, the trader said nothing more, nodded, and walked out of the trading room.
Since entering the underground research institute, Xiao Ba had been shocked by Du Yan’s train of thought again. He no longer tried to guess Du Yan’s intentions and just asked directly when he saw something that puzzled him.
Anyway, Du Yan was bored waiting in the trading room, so he was happy to chat with Xiao Ba to relieve boredom.
Xiao Ba asked: “Why do you have to look for something so hard to find? I always feel that this kind of place is not safe.”
“Because I’m waiting for someone. If I don’t give them some time, how will they find me?”
“Shen Heng?”
Du Yan shook his head and said: “No, I’m waiting for my dear son, Dr. Jin.”
“…” Xiao Ba almost wanted to shed a tear of sympathy for Dr. Jin. He was clearly a psychopathic villain, but how can it be so tragic to be manipulated by Du Yan, a black lotus?
Xiao Ba thought about it and asked: “How do you know Dr. Jin will block you here?”
“In a sense, Dr. Jin is someone who knows me very well. After all, he knows my genes very well. In the underground laboratory, I deliberately left a flaw in the memory of one person. That person will be responsible for reporting any abnormalities to Dr. Jin.”
“Dr. Jin is not stupid. He can infer what is in that room and can also think of my next move from my genes.” Du Yan bent his fingers and tapped the table: “So after getting the news that the underground laboratory was infiltrated, he probably started to rush to this area.”
At this moment, the door was pushed open, and Du Yan just said in his heart: “Here he comes.”
Then, he stood up with a panicked expression on his face and looked at the arrogant man at the door.
Dr. Jin looked at Du Yan and said: “I’m here to take you home.”
