Chapter 814: New Members ( 2 )
Yuan Ruiyue thought for a long time before he said, "Back in the Jiangning City Base, I saw their information in Pei Xun’s office. Unlike other mutants, they could be counted as special experiment subjects."
"Old Yuan, what do you know about them?" Jin Xuyan asked.
"Other test subjects mutated after being injected with an unknown serum or after their DNA was mixed with animals’ DNA. But they mutated because they came into close contact with a meteorite. Their mutation is slower but stable, without any side effects."
"From the latest report about them, the researchers found out that if one of them was injured, the other one would suffer the same injuries. But besides sharing injuries, they also share healing abilities."
"Brother Yuan, you mean that as long as one of them is alive, the other one won’t die?" Feng Yun asked.
"That’s the theory. But before the researchers could do more tests, they escaped from the laboratory. So no one knows what’s going on with their bodies."
After he said this, Mo Junjie’s eyes flashed for a moment. He was very interested in their situation. It would be great if he could do some tests to find out the condition of their bodies.
If he could recreate their sharing ability, it might be possible to transfer any injuries the members suffered to another subject, for example, a mutant beast.
This method would grant them not only one extra life, but countless extra lives. They might even be able to walk sideways even when surrounded by zombie hordes.
Reaching this conclusion, his urge to pull them into the team and take their blood samples for testing was extremely strong.
It would be better if he could get their blood samples from the ones sent by Professor Fu. Unfortunately, those blood samples had no names on them, just labels with numbers. So he didn’t know which ones were theirs.
While he was lost in his own thoughts, the discussion had reached its end.
"Captain, what do you think? Should we let them join us?" Zhang Yuan asked.
Jin Xuyan glanced at his fiancée and saw that she showed no reaction. Back then, he rejected Jian Huan and her brother because he didn’t want his fiancée to misunderstand their relationship and reject him.
But now, both of them had a stable relationship, and she didn’t seem to be jealous of Jian Huan anymore. Even though he thought it was fine to let them join the team, he still leaned closer to her and asked, "Ah Zhi, what do you think?"
Jiao Lizhi had already regained her memories of her previous lives and knew that her fiancé’s feelings for her stayed the same in each lifetime.
So she no longer worried about him having an ambiguous relationship with Jian Huan. If someone like him couldn’t be trusted, she feared that no man on the whole planet was worth her trust.
Objectively speaking, Jian Huan, Jian Ziqin, and Lin Fei were strong mutants, and they were famous in her previous life. They were also loyal to their friends and wouldn’t betray the team. With them joining the team, their chance of survival would increase further.
As for Cheng Rui and Cheng Yue, her system would warn her if something was wrong with them. She also wanted to know what was wrong with their bodies, and to do that, she needed to keep them at a close distance.
After considering the pros and cons, she nodded and said, "Having them join our team is not a bad thing. They are strong and can increase our team’s strength."
"As for the risk of them betraying our team, with so many members keeping an eye on them, they shouldn’t be able to do anything harmful. But we still have to observe them for at least 1 or 2 months. Only when we are sure of their loyalty will we let them know about our team’s secret."
The members nodded in agreement after hearing her words. Since everyone agreed to let them join, Jin Xuyan turned to Zhang Yuan and said, "Old Zhang, I will leave this matter to you."
Zhang Yuan nodded. "I will find them after breakfast."
Jin Xuyan thought for a moment and said, "Our meeting will be postponed until you bring them back."
"Understood."
After breakfast, the members returned to their homes, while Mo Junjie pulled Du Beiye to his place and explained what was going on between Jin Xuyan and her sister.
He didn’t say much and gave her several books. After Du Beiye and Krayan absorbed the information in the books, they finally understood what was going on.
To avoid awkwardness in the future, she declared, "I will buy my own apartment and move out of my sister’s house."
Hearing this, Mo Junjie said, "All apartments in this building have been sold out. Are you going to stay far from our team?"
"Well, I can buy an apartment in the next building."
Mo Junjie lowered his gaze and continued reading his research data while saying casually, "There is no need to buy another apartment. My place has a total of 3 bedrooms. After Shenshen recovers, she can take the small bedroom, and you can stay in the junior master bedroom."
When she heard this, Du Beiye stared at him and asked, "Junjie, are you inviting me to live in your place? Isn’t this called cohabiting and only done by couples?"
"This is not only done by couples. A lot of people stay together to share the burden of living expenses, and they are called roommates. Our members also share apartments. Are you saying that they are couples?" Mo Junjie explained calmly.
Du Beiye thought for a moment and found that it made sense. It looked like only her sister and her Captain could be counted as a couple. The rest of the members were roommates.
Pei Yixie and Fu Guai also shared an apartment, and they were not a couple. Why couldn’t she do it with Mo Junjie?
