"I knew it."

Facing such a terrifying scene, An Wujiu was not surprised at all. He took out his weapon with an extremely fast reaction speed, and even mended several monsters that climbed up, and the movements were done in one go.

In fact, when Shen Ti saw these clones, some kind of conjecture flashed in his heart, but the imagination is his imagination, and he personally killed the monster that looked exactly like An Wujiu, and Shen Ti was still a little shocked.

At the moment of the headshot, two small objects appeared in front of him, right at the broken wound of the monster. Shen Ti endured the discomfort and reached out to take it.

They are two micro-hard drives with Wu You and Yang Er's Cigong numbers printed on them.

The appearance of their clues here means that so far, except for A01 and A02, everyone else has a corresponding hard disk. As long as the hard disk is opened, clues will inevitably appear.

Without thinking for too long, Shen Ti directly took out the incendiary bombs that were not used up last time, and threw them towards the remaining monsters.

This is the third time he has been forced to kill humans and monsters who look the same as An Wujiu.

The evil taste of the altar is really extraordinary.

"close the door!"

The two stepped back into the door, and then closed the two doors together, using their shoulders to resist.

"I'm going to have a psychological shadow." Shen Ti complained to An Wujiu, and heaved a long sigh, "This is definitely the scariest scene in this dungeon."

The small gesture of his sigh made An Wujiu feel cute for no reason, but the next second he felt really strange, why would he use the word cute to describe Shen Ti who is 1.9 meters tall.

"Don't you think it's scary?" Shen Ti couldn't understand An Wujiu, when he saw the monster with the same face as himself being shot, he even smiled.

An Wujiu nodded immediately, and then emphasized a little too much: "It's quite scary."

"Maybe...every one is my face."

He said to Shen Ti, "Do you still remember the password puzzle we encountered when the magma appeared?"

Shen Ti thought for a while, and suddenly realized something.

"Clone Child."

Everything has been foreshadowed.

An Wujiu conjectures that A02 may also be a victim of this holding center, having participated in the cloning experiment.

But why was he able to become the top manager of the detention center? According to the setting of this building, the higher the level, the higher the division of labor and technical content of the staff, from the caretaker at the bottom to the clown who represents entertainment, and then gradually becomes the manager of the surrogacy agency and the engineer of the embryo experiment.

A01 and A02 on the top floor should be the leadership of the containment center.

And the two leaderships have an unusual relationship.

Everything that happened here seems to be connected into a complete story, but the clues are not enough. Any possibility can be extended infinitely. For example, A02 is actually a cloned test product and substitute. When he learned the truth, he was Kill everyone, and replace him with the second A02...

Thinking of this, An Wujiu felt his back go numb.

The monster screamed and roared desperately amidst the burning, and the nursery rhymes on the fourth floor did not continue to play on the fifth floor.

The successful entry of the two made the door on the fifth floor completely closed, and the door disappeared, turning into an ordinary wall.

The fifth floor is very quiet, and the layout is also a cloister. There are bloodstains on the floor, extending to the corner. An Wujiu lowered his head to examine the blood, and found that the blood was fresh, but it disappeared as soon as he touched it.

All the bloodstains along the entire corridor were gone.

"Where are they?" Shen Ti looked around.

"Probably hid in a safe place." An Wujiu called out tentatively, "Wu You?"

"We are here." Wu You's voice came from afar.

"Okay, let's go there." The voice came from the right, so An Wujiu and Shen Ti also walked in that direction. The lights in the corridor were a bit dazzling, An Wujiu looked up subconsciously, and found some small black holes on the edge of the ceiling.

"What are you looking at?" Shen Ti asked.

An Wujiu pointed to the ceiling, "Did you see it?" He didn't look at Shen Ti, kept raising his head, and then squinted his eyes, "I don't know what it is, I can't see clearly."

The second after he finished speaking, his body swayed and his feet left the ground, An Wujiu bowed his head in fright, "Hey..."

Shen Ti actually picked him up.

"Can you see clearly?" Shen Ti tilted his head below, blinking his eyes, "Do you want to go higher?"

"No, no need." An Wujiu hastily raised his head, looking for the black spot just now in a panic, and then belatedly said to himself, he should just let him put him down.

never mind.

He reached out and touched the so-called black spot, but in fact it didn't seem to be a flat spot, but a hole the size of a bean.

"What is it?" Shen Ti asked from below.

It's strange, it's not empty inside, it seems to have a layer of reflective glass.

An Wujiu looked at other places, not only the ceiling, but also the seams and corners of the floor, there seemed to be such a small black hole.

"Let me down." An Wujiu touched Shen Ti's shoulder with his hand. This posture made him feel ashamed inexplicably, but his curiosity kept making strange thoughts pop up in his mind, such as Shen Ti How could Ti have such great strength.

Shen Ti put him down in response, and the two suddenly changed from being hugged to face to face, An Wujiu's chin brushed the tip of his nose, and their eyes met.

The exchange of sight didn't last long, An Wujiu soon turned his head away, coughing to cover up his strange behavior.

"What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Out of guilt, An Wujiu shrugged off Shen Ti's concern, and turned the topic back to the previous black spot, "It seems to be a camera."

"I guess so." Shen Ti said, "But don't there be many cameras in general office buildings?"

An Wujiu turned around and walked in the direction of Wu You and the others just now, "The reason is that it's not an ordinary camera."

It was done so covertly, as if not wanting to be discovered. If it's really just normal monitoring, why bother.

Shen Ti walked behind, staring at An Wujiu's red ears, thinking of something slowly, touched the tip of his nose.

When passing the corner, An Wujiu saw a safe escape plan fixed on the wall, which was the same as the first floor, showing the layout of the entire floor.

Shen Ti also noticed that the direction marking on this floor is different from that on the fourth floor.

To be precise, only the fourth layer is different, and it is completely opposite to the other four layers.

An Wujiu didn't speak, walked around the corner very quietly, and saw a door opened in the corridor. He heard Wu You's voice, so he went straight over, just in time for them to open Zhong Yiruan Nanshan's hard drive.

"Does this door not require permission?"

Wu You glanced at him, "No need, the door is open, but this host may need you to open it." Probably because of the electric shock before, Wu You's face was particularly ugly, and his voice was weak.

An Wujiu walked over, the recognizer quickly captured his face, and a line of words appeared on the screen.

[No permission. ]

"How come?" Wu You didn't understand, "Shouldn't this floor be your floor?"

Shen Ti pushed away the shoulders that were leaning against An Wujiu, "I'll do it."

As soon as he leaned over, the screen unlocked.

[Welcome back, A01! ]

It really is his authority.

Soon, an unread message popped up on the screen, and the sender was A02.

[Brother, I still feel a little weird. I always forget what happened, and then suddenly think about it, am I sick? Sometimes when I see you, I can’t remember what you were like when you were young, but we are not Did you grow up together? ]

A02's memory disorder

Shen Ti thought for a while, and inserted the two miniature hard disks he just got into the device connector of the host computer first, and Nanshan and Zhong Yirou came again.

Another line of words appeared on the screen.

[Would you like to view the logs submitted to you now? ]

Shen Ti chose yes.

An Wujiu turned his head to look at other places in the room, there seemed to be cameras on the edge of the ceiling here, if the corridor was a normal place for cameras, this place probably wasn't.

There is a resting single bed against the wall, and a small desk with three metal photo frames on it, one of which is two children sitting side by side on the grass, maybe it is a game set For certain reasons, these two children were almost made according to the appearance of An Wujiu and Shen Ti.

Especially Shen Ti's green eyes.

However, these two children seem to be about the same age, and it is impossible to tell who is the elder brother and who is the younger brother.

The other photo is of them when they grew up. In the picture, A02, who looks exactly like himself, is playing a building block game with a group of children. A01 is standing by the door. The picture is very warm.

The protagonist in the last photo is a middle-aged man holding a little boy in one hand, namely A01 and A02.

This is their father

An Wujiu touched the photo with his finger, and a holographic projected text suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

[This is the previous owner of the containment center, and also the father of A01, your adoptive father. He adopted you twenty years ago. So you and A01 became brothers. After the death of your father, you have been assisting A01 in handling the affairs of the detention center, but you suffer from congenital atrial septal defect, which is a genetically induced abnormality of heart development. ]

A02 is adopted...

Even though he had a congenital disease, they still chose to treat him as their child and younger brother.

Then A02 really fell in love with his brother, although it was only in name.

After Shen Ti made his choice, the log inside would pop up directly. The first one was Zhong Yirou's, and her content was very concise.

[Work log on October 7:

Liquid nitrogen freezing chamber temperature: minus 196 degrees Celsius

Total number of clones: 245

Abnormalities in the cryogenic cabin: None for now, everything is operating normally.

Another: There was a short-term permission failure on the E layer, and the system quickly repaired itself.

Recording time: 23:34. ]

Only then did Wu You understand, "So the cryogenic cabin that just appeared on the fourth floor should actually be on the first floor."

Nan Shan, who was sitting on the side, also said softly: "The content of this diary is highly consistent with the dream that Ms. Zhong said before. She said that she did something bad in the dream and guarded many identical frozen bodies of adults."

Just after they read it, the log is automatically deleted and destroyed.

An Wujiu was puzzled by such a high degree of secrecy.

"What's the use of those clones?" Josh asked in a low voice, "Why are so many A02s cloned?"

An Wujiu glanced at him.

"Let's look at other things first." Wu You bumped Shen Ti's arm with his arm, "Hurry up."

Lord Shen Ti doesn't remember villains' faults, and the second diary also popped up.

This is from Nanshan.

[Work log on October 7:

Disposal of dead bodies and experimental waste materials: 6 cases

Treatment of failed recovery of clones: 0 cases

23:45 minutes]

It's also about cloning.

An Wujiu frowned, and suddenly heard Wu You calling Josh's name in surprise.

"What happened to your back?"

Josh didn't know it, but suddenly a large swath of blood stains appeared on his back, and the cloth in the center of the blood stains was torn out of thin air.

An Wujiu immediately opened his clown suit to check.

"There are traces of a knife on your back."

The wound looked deep, and it was right behind the heart, so it should be fatal.

Moreover, such a large blood stain should not be the beginning of the piercing, and the color of the blood is not new enough.

Not only that, Yang Erci also found that the strangle marks on Zhong Yirou's Nanshan's neck reappeared, as if the disappearance of the fourth layer was just a dream.

"Do you feel any pain?" An Wujiu pressed on the wound on Josh's back.

Josh shook his head, "I don't feel anything..."

A new conjecture popped up in An Wujiu's heart.

"Ahem..." Wu You suddenly supported the wall and coughed. He covered his mouth with his hand and coughed up some liquid, which he thought was blood.

But when I took it away, it was water.

He didn't understand why he suddenly felt like he was choking on water and coughed up so much water.

"What's wrong with you?"

Hearing Nanshan's voice, An Wujiu realized that in the blink of an eye, Wu You's hair and top were soaked, and the knees of his lower body were also wet.

"What's going on?" Josh didn't feel right. "Is it true that the ghost of A02 is taking revenge on us?"

Everyone has abnormalities invariably, but they are not life-threatening, and everyone is even in good condition.

Shen Ti checked the remaining logs by himself, and Josh's log also popped up.

[Work log on October 7:

Today my friend has difficulty completing the task, A02 is not in good condition, and seems to be in a bad mood. I am concerned about his condition, but he has not told me the reason for a long time.

Growth show: works fine.

23:56. ]

Then it's Wu You's.

[Work log on October 7:

The surrogacy factory is functioning normally

Everything about the mother of the gestating clone was normal.

Talk to A02 Today 32

Seeing this, An Wujiu frowned.

Why didn't I finish writing

This work log was also automatically destroyed, which made An Wujiu wonder if it would also be automatically uploaded to A01.

Finally, there is Yang Erci's log report, which is longer than the previous ones.

[Work log on October 7:

In the continuous observation of the follow-up results of the gene-edited experimenters, the effect of the growth factor promoter combined with the nutrient pool is good, and the growth period from the cloned embryo to adulthood can be compressed to six months. After many experiments and repeated adjustments to the parameters, this is The fastest speed currently achievable. But the corresponding side effects are also obvious, the first is shortened lifespan]

Her diary also came to an abrupt end.
