Before Pei Ji could elaborate, several men lying on the floor of the room woke up. Tours pushed his feet away from his face and cursed: "No wonder I keep having nightmares about eating stinky bread. It's you."

!”

Murphy scratched his head and chuckled.

Pei Ji glanced at them, turned around and walked out with his coat: "I'm going to buy food."

Behind him, the voices of the team members talking excitedly to Duan Moyan could be heard. Pei Ji walked through several narrow corridors and headed to the empty rest hall without squinting his eyes.

At this point, most of the prisoners hadn't gotten up yet. Prison A3 was like an empty city. The food vendor was yawning nonstop, mechanically stirring a ball of mashed potatoes in the basin with his right hand.

Pei Ji stood in front of him and waited. He was a little distracted and didn't even notice someone approaching.

"Eric, give me one too." Rao Le put one hand on the counter and said to the boss.

He was still wearing the clothes he wore yesterday, looking tired, with bloodstains on his clothes and various broken nicks.

"What's going on?" Pei Ji raised his eyebrows, the sixth team was not weak.

"Forget it, yesterday our team went to serve as a foreign aid for the 40th team, but it turned out that their leader was a fool. He had to fight against the degenerate group, which caused me to waste a row of bullets." Rao Le said depressedly, "Recently,

There are more and more fallen species running out of the desert, and they are still very strong. It is impossible not to use thermal weapons."

The two of them were speechless. After a while, Pei Ji's food was ready and he looked at the bread in the bag.

"It's getting less and less again."

The boss named Eric smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Captain Pei, I really didn't do it on purpose. There has been less food coming out of the border recently. I'm just a shady businessman and there's nothing I can do about it."

Pei Ji nodded, turned around with the bag in one hand, and Rao Le lay on the counter and spoke lazily: "Not only the black market supply of food, weapons, medicines, and survival supplies are gradually dwindling, but yesterday, I heard that District A1

There was a riot and many people died."

"Pei Ji, how long do you think it will be before we are treated as abandoned children?"

The residential areas of District 12, also known as cells, are ugly buildings with no aesthetics at all. They seem to be piled up casually to accommodate the most vicious human beings in the entire continent.

Pei Ji walked through the dusty and dirty corridors, occasionally hearing the deafening snoring coming from behind the door. His expression hardly changed, except for a moment of wavering when he opened the door to his room.

Behind the door, the man bathed in sunshine was surrounded by three grown men.

Duan Moyan stretched out a hand: "Shake hands."

Murphy happily put his paw on it.

"Change your hand."

"sit down."

Murphy squinted his eyes and looked at the person in front of him happily, barely wagging his tail. He might not be so obedient during training.

Pei Ji looked at the hands held by the two of them expressionlessly, and placed the bag in his hand on the table with a loud bang.

"Wash up in 3 minutes, then go to the battlefield for training immediately."

No one paid attention to him.

"Didn't you hear that?" Pei Ji's face darkened.

"receive!!"

Duan Moyan watched the three of them rush into the bathroom like the wind, and then there was a sound of bells, bottles, and cans falling, mixed with the sound of water flowing.

"Green, you squeezed my toothpaste to brush my scales again!"

"Tulsi, you've lost your hair."

Duan Moyan sat by the bed and looked at the tall man standing by the wall with his arms folded and silent. It was obvious that he was not in a good mood.

She thought for a moment and stretched out her hand: "Would you like to shake hands?"

Pei Ji's body stiffened, but he couldn't help but bend down and get closer to her: "I am a leopard, not a dog."

Duan Moyan was shrouded in the shadow of his tall figure, and her body subconsciously turned to the side. The next second, a black men's combat uniform fell off her pocket and fell on her shoulders.

Duan Moyan was stunned for a moment, then touched it, and found that the tentacles were still a little warm.

"The weather in District 12 is harsh and the seasons are abnormal. Your clothes are too thin. Please wear them." Pei Ji turned his head. From the corner of his eye, he saw the girl buttoning up her buttons and putting on her belt. When he saw that she was wearing her own clothes, he felt uneasy for no reason.

Somewhat happy.

Taking advantage of the lack of people in the morning, people from the fifth team came to the training ground.

The entire A3 prison is very large. Because there are no people with the profession of "prison guards", the prisoners have a very high degree of freedom. As long as they continue to resist the monsters in the no-man's land and earn points in exchange for survival supplies, it is actually no different from living outside.

.

Similarly, in addition to rest halls, dormitories, and training grounds, a3 prison also has a medical room, a black market, a basketball court, and even an arena.

Duan Moyan wore a pilot's hat on his head and a mask on his face. He was wrapped in Pei Ji's loose clothes and surrounded by the four of them. From a distance, it was impossible to distinguish between male and female - or at all.

I can't see her as a person.

She peeked her head out from behind Murphy: "Training ground?"

The building in front of me is a large flat-floor building with thick cement walls divided into cells. There are some training equipment inside, and there is a huge playground in the center. There is no one there now.

After the three Murphys entered, they took off their coats and started running around the track in circles. Sweat fell down their strong bodies, like a tireless perpetual motion machine.

Duan Moyan casually picked up a dumbbell on the ground - he was dead before he picked it up.

She let go and looked at Pei Ji, who was standing beside her like a wall.

"Actually, I have a question. Since the gender ratio between men and women is very unbalanced now, how can social order be maintained? Will the population not decrease sharply?"

Pei Ji paused and spoke slowly: "Poor people and prisoners are not eligible to have partners. Most newborns are born using uterine replacement technology. However, only sons can be born from uterine replacement technology. Only daughters can be born through natural conception.

.”

Perhaps because he was not used to talking about this kind of topic, Pei Ji paused and said, "And because of the fusion of animal genes, the probability of multiple births has increased, so the population growth can be barely maintained."

But he was on the verge of collapse at any time. He didn't say this.

Duan Moyan nodded. She saw that the three of them had finished running and started fighting again. It had only been one night, and the injury on Murphy's leg had healed a lot. He was sparring with Tours, and every blow

They are both strong and strong. One punch and one kick between the two of them, their movements are very fast.

Duan Moyan suddenly remembered that since this is a prison, everyone has committed something. I just don’t know why the fifth team, an officer, came in?

She couldn't help but secretly look up at Pei Ji. He had the qualities of a soldier. Even when he was standing casually, his back was straight, and his whole body was like a tree growing upward and never bending.

About two hours later, when someone approached the training ground, Pei Ji and the others took Duan Moyan and left.

"Miss, it's lucky that you came to our place. There is a swamp over a5, and there are many poisonous insects."

"Although we are all yellow sand, please don't be afraid, we will protect you!"

"Miss, next time I turn into a prototype, you can sit on my back and I will run very fast!"

Young and handsome men surrounded the girl, trying their best to make her smile even more, and they were extremely excited and happy.

Duan Moyan was about to ask about the situation in other prisons when suddenly there was a commotion from the outer wall not far away. Many people gathered around and there was a faint sound of arguments.

The person who was wagging his tail and talking happily next to her suddenly suddenly became nervous. Almost in an instant, the four of them formed a circle around her.

Murphy's eyes were cold, Tours drew his weapon, and Green stretched out his arms to protect the person behind him.

They were on guard everywhere, and Pei Ji glanced at the small door under the wall: "It seems that someone who formed a team to hunt down the fallen species has returned."

They hid in the building and quietly looked at the chaotic crowd not far away.

Four men covered in blood lay on the ground. One of the thinner men screamed and wailed, and the other three had no strength to speak and were paralyzed.

The people who came after hearing the sound left a circle, and no one took a step forward.

"That's Team 20. I remember they were going to Mine No. 38, the deepest place. They set out seven days ago. I didn't expect to come back today."

"It's not uncommon for people to die on the road."

Gradually, people began to step forward to treat those people. Suddenly, the thin man who had been shouting suddenly turned over and stood up. His body was swaying, and he rushed towards the person closest to him with his teeth bared.

The man had originally taken out a bandage to wrap him up, but when he saw this, without even thinking, he pulled out a knife and slashed at the thin man, creating a long gash on the skinny man's chest, and blood gushed out.

Duan Moyan thought it was incredible that the rescuer could counterattack so quickly in self-defense. However, what was really shocking was that the thin man who was chopped was shouting just now, but now he seemed to feel no pain at all, and just continued to

He bared his teeth and let out a low roar, as if he had completely forgotten that he was seriously injured.

The thin man's blood flowed all over the floor. People around him looked at him warily and gradually formed a circle.

Then, an even more shocking development was that the man who originally drew his sword to defend himself actually took a step forward and slashed at the thin man. Instead of stopping the onlookers, they all drew out their weapons and attacked the thin man...

Pei Ji didn't let her see what happened next. He stood directly in front of her, blocking her sight with his tall body.

Duan Moyan blinked, a little confused: "Why didn't those people save him?"

Pei Ji opened his mouth: "He is about to become a fallen species."

Duan Moyan was stunned.

This reminded her of the past, when people infected with the zombie virus would be abandoned like this. They were driven away, abandoned, and chopped off with a single knife.

Duan Moyan suddenly understood something: Even if there is an imbalance between men and women, so what if we rely on technological means to maintain population growth? Genetic pollution, more and more monsters, and the number of humans will only become smaller and smaller. This is a situation with no way out, and we are destined to die.

ending.

Seeing the body of the thin man falling slowly, and a man still alive on the side grabbing the arm of the other person, he looked horrified: "They are evolving, they have minds, they are coming, they are coming soon!!

"

"Who are you talking about?" Others were confused.
