Chapter 91 91. Zero
After leaving the street just now, Wen Yan didn't take the initiative to talk to the young man behind her, but she could feel his eyes following her.
Cold, probing, sticky, like a poisonous snake.
After walking two blocks, the other person finally spoke. What didn't match the young man's appearance was his slightly panicked voice.
The other party probably hadn't spoken for a long time, and his throat seemed to be rusty, and a frosty sound was squeezed out of his throat, hoarse and deep.
There was a lot of noise in his ears, but Wen Yan also heard the young man's words clearly, "Hello... hello, thank you for... helping me just now."
Wen Yan suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at him quietly, and after a while he said, "You're welcome."
Seeing that the young man was about to speak again, Wen Yan said first, "Find a quiet place."
It was around five o'clock in the afternoon when I sent Yueshu away, and now it's close to seven o'clock. It's already dark, and the shops and street lights on both sides of the street are on.
The market only gets lively in the evening, so now there are more and more people on the street. At a glance, it is full of humans and foreigners in strange clothes, which has caused crowding.
The distance between Wen Yan and the boy was quite far, and many people passed through them. If you were not careful, you would be scattered by the crowd.
In addition, Wen Yan's right eye kept twitching, and her sixth sense told her that it was best not to let others hear what the young man said.
After Wen Yan finished speaking, the young man fell into thinking and tilted his head with doubts in his eyes, but he didn't let him think for long as Wen Yan was about to disappear in front of his eyes.
Just leave like that, without a trace of nostalgia.
He hurried forward, keeping his eyes locked on the person in front of him, and he didn't stop even when he bumped into passers-by and received bursts of abuse.
It wasn't until he walked next to Wen Yan and felt his scent lingering on the tip of his nose that the young man breathed a sigh of relief.
He likes the refreshing and clean smell.
At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind: the first person who took the initiative to speak for him did not scold, shock, or order him...
Can't, can't, can't be lost...
Wen Yan didn't know what the other person was thinking. While she was observing the items sold in the shops on the roadside, she also paid attention to quiet and remote places.
The trade market is mainly composed of more than a dozen streets. There are many alleys and it is very complicated to go around. Every street is full of people at this time, even the alleys.
At this moment, Wen Yan turned around a street and saw a dead end next to a shop that was empty of people, so he walked over decisively.
The young man still had doubts in his eyes, and he didn't understand why the person next to him wanted to find a quiet place to talk to him.
His head hurt a little, and he didn't understand, I really didn't understand. But in this way, he still followed the other person obediently, not daring to go too far away.
Wen Yan stood still, raised his head slightly and looked into the other person's eyes, which were so empty that no emotion could be seen, and even less human than hers.
"You understand what that person said, right?" The young man nodded, and Wen Yan continued, "You're not afraid."
What she said was an affirmation and a statement.
The other party still didn't speak, but nodded. Seeing this, Wen Yan didn't know what to say. After all, she wasn't a talkative person.
Take a deep breath and say the last words, "Be safe when you go out."
Finally, she raised her feet and prepared to leave. It was a special task to help the other party. The other party did not want to say more about the rest, so she had no reason to force the other party to answer.
It's just that she is really curious about him.
When the young man saw that Wen Yan was about to leave, he immediately held her shoulders, but the next second he quickly pulled his hand away, his voice full of panic.
"I'm sorry! I didn't mean to touch you...but why didn't you ask me again? I'm still thinking about how to answer your next question, but why didn't you ask me again? I don't understand, I don't understand, I can't tell the difference yet
It’s such a strange feeling to show your emotions.”
Obviously I have controlled the riot deep in my heart and want to listen to you quietly.
Speaking of this, his eyes were filled with mist and the ends of his eyes were red.
This time it was Wen Yan's turn to be at a loss, "I..." She opened her mouth, but did not say the next words.
She was not sure how the other party would react if she said "I have nothing to say".
After all, when a young man is emotionally unstable, there is an indescribable coldness exuding from his body.
It was cold, bone-chilling, and he had murderous intentions.
Although Wen Yan wasn't afraid, she didn't want to get into trouble if she went out to play.
"I was thinking of introducing myself." Wen Yan turned his head slightly and looked away, no longer looking at the other person. Well,...yes, that's what he said.
She extended her hand as a polite sign of friendship. "My name is Wen Yan. It's an honor to meet you."
The young man stayed for more than ten seconds, as if he was understanding what she meant. After understanding, his eyes suddenly burst into a charming light. He was shocked, doubtful, happy, excited, and finally calmed down.
He also stretched out his strapped hand and stood there stunned. Finally, Wen Yan took the initiative to hold it.
He said, "Hello... hello! I don't have a name. The number they gave me is called zero. I usually call me zero. You can also call me zero."
Number zero?
Wen Yan barely reacted, and Jing Zhe's voice suddenly appeared in her mind, [Xiao Wen Yan, did I hear it correctly?! Zero?!!! Could this kid be the super experimental subject from the research institute? I
Damn, it’s really possible.]
Its tone was a little excited, "What kind of magical luck do you have? You can encounter this!"
Have you forgotten? Oops! Didn't I tell you before? A series of explosions occurred in the institute half a year ago. They claimed that the explosion was caused by a malfunction of some instrument, but it was actually caused by Zero.
Zero took advantage of the chaos to escape and disappeared without a trace, making it easy for everyone in the institute to find him.】
[Cocaine killed me at that time, and I had long been dissatisfied with what the institute was doing. They spent huge sums of money to train Zero, and they spent a lot of effort, but as a result, he ran away and everything was lost. 】
【Have you been in the institute since you were a kid?】
Regarding Wen Yan's question, Jingzhe answered quickly, [Yeah, yes! Always there, Zero is the only experimental subject who survived the first batch of human experiments at the institute. 】
[The institute claims externally that in order to evolve the human body and improve genes in the short term to accelerate the improvement of the strength of the entire human race, it is really nonsense!]
[You obviously want to realize your crazy theory, so you secretly conduct such anti-human experiments under some pretense!]
[I'm afraid, his body is filled with all kinds of medicines. Damn it, the institute is so unscrupulous! How could it be possible to kill such a young child?
[He is completely out of touch with society now. He doesn’t understand many things. Emotionally, humanoid robots are richer than him. 】
Wen Yan also understood at this moment. No wonder when he first saw the other person, his whole person exuded full dejection and danger.
It's not very popular either.
It turned out that when she saw the other person, she felt chilled and her heartbeat quickened, and her whole body went into combat mode. She was not afraid of the danger revealed by the other person, but of his lifelessness.
The feeling of decay, of dying.
The young man was looking at her seriously, with a comforting smile on Wen Yan's face, "Okay, Ling."
Ling Ran felt a little happy, but then became depressed again, "But 'zero' doesn't sound good, it's just a number. Unlike Wen... Yan, I don't have a last name... but I don't know how to change it. It's so complicated. I
It’s stupid, I don’t understand.”
He hammered his head, appearing troubled by this question. However, the next moment, he remembered the answer to Wen Yan's question.
"They have done language experiments on me before, so I can understand the other person's words. But I don't know the meaning of that person's words. What is 'lower and inferior creature'? What is 'money'? 'Black market'
What is it again?"
Wen Yan didn't speak. There were people coming and going on the street, and there was a lot of noise. The boy's voice was not loud, so she listened carefully.
"I only know what 'break hands' means because I've done it."
When Zero said this, it was as if the pause button had been pressed, and his whole body suddenly became motionless. After about three seconds, he stretched out his hands and raised them in front of his eyes.
The whole movement was mechanical and stiff, like a puppet on strings, and a dark light flowed in his eyes.
"Killing someone?"
"I seem to have killed many people..."
"The warm, viscous red liquid covered my hands and sprinkled on my face. It had a fishy and unpleasant smell..."
"I... don't like it."
"But they will force me and inject me with a lot of medicine, which is very painful and uncomfortable..."
"Because I was stupid, I planned for a long time before leaving that place..."
"Did that redhead also want to kill me? I actually wanted to kill him too. He smelled bad."
"But, Wen Yan's smell is clean and nice." So I regained my consciousness in time to prevent me from turning into a monster.
After listening to everything the other party said, Wen Yan didn't know what to say. As mentioned before, she was not good at comforting people.
Some things can only be carried by oneself, digested and understood by oneself.
Wen Yan suddenly felt lucky that he trusted his instincts and did not let the other party say this in a crowded place. It was really too scary.
He raised his hand and glanced at the time. An hour had passed. Wen Yan patted the other party's forearm and said, "Okay, let's go back first."
Wen Yan couldn't leave the boy behind now. After all, Jingzhe said that Ling had escaped and was homeless.
