The moment she turned around, she splashed the water.
"ah!"
Water splashed from the face of the man standing behind him. He had his eyes closed, and his eyelashes and forehead were covered with water droplets. He temporarily lost his vision and was shaking his head desperately.
Zhang Chi took a big step back.
What the hell? !
I saw that he had a big head and a small body, and his whole body seemed to be squeezed through two doors. They were pressed once on the front and side, turning into a matchstick with eyes and nose. His shoulders were not as thick as Zhang Chi's thighs, and his limbs were thicker. Thin and short, the spine looks extra long. If you don’t look carefully, you would think it’s an enlargement——
Ant?
"Ant" wiped the water stains on his face with his sleeves and said viciously: "Today is the day you die."
His figure moved extremely fast, and he was in front of Zhang Chi in an instant. Zhang Chi kicked him out. "Ant" immediately bounced against the wall next to him. Zhang Chi kicked his foot upwards and kicked again, "Ant" It actually flew directly to the wall. The extremely short limbs seemed to have a suction force, and they moved on the smooth wall without any hindrance. They bent their backs like reptiles, but were faster than human beings.
With a "pop" sound, a stream of mucus flew from his mouth and landed steadily on Zhang Chi's neck.
The mucus has no smell, but is green and filled with green particles, a bit like a kiwi fruit that has been squeezed into pulp.
Was she - was she spat on?
Zhang Chi was shocked.
"Ant-Man" was even more shocked than Zhang Chi: "Why didn't you react?!"
"Ant-Man" sprayed another squirt of kiwi juice, and was heading toward Zhang Chi's door. Zhang Chi sided to avoid it, made a fist with his right hand, and charged up the force to hit the wall. "Ant-Man" moved quickly and dodged the blow, and the wall emitted " There was a loud bang, dust flew down, and the wall began to crack radially from the position where she punched.
"Ant-Man" rushed directly from the wall to the ceiling, stretched out like a bat in mid-air, swooped over Zhang Chi's head and hugged her face to face. He spread his legs and sat on Zhang Chi's shoulders. Grab one leg, hold it tightly, use force, and tear it apart——
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh-"
"Uh uh uh uh ah ah ah -"
"Put me down - uh ah - put, let me go..."
"P-please...please..."
"Uhhhhhhhhhh-"
He was so painful that he forgot about it. His hands had long since lost the strength to hold Zhang Chi, and he fell backwards. Zhang Chi grabbed his legs and pushed him forward, smashing him to the floor.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch—"
The "ant" rolled on the ground, and its limbs returned to their original shape in an instant. The body that was originally flat like a matchstick gradually began to expand like a balloon, and finally became a complete human form.
The noise just now was so loud that it alerted the prison guards and rushed over. Neither "Ant-Man" nor Zhang Chi admitted that they were fighting. As for the hole in the wall, they all said that it cracked naturally.
The prison guard didn't say much.
Zhang Chi returned to his work station, finished his work for the day, went to the canteen to get food, and met Zhou Ke.
Zhou Ke: "Did you go mining today?"
Zhang Chi nodded: "I'm going."
Zhou Ke: "There is a problem with that mine."
Zhang Chi: "What's the problem?"
Zhou Ke: "My fellow villager said that the Lanming Sand Mine is poisonous and you cannot work in it for more than three hours."
Zhang Chi: "Yes, I heard about it."
The two finished their meal together and sat across from each other at the table.
Zhou Ke asked: "Have you encountered anything strange today?"
Zhang Chi said: "Why do you ask that?"
Zhou Ke pointed to the gauze wrapped on Zhang Chi's head.
Zhang Chi said calmly: "I was hit by a stone while mining."
Zhou Ke nodded, and after a while he couldn't help but ask: "No one... um... no one did something to you?"
Zhang Chi asked: "What do you know?"
Zhou Ke said: "It's not interesting, I just heard about it. Just be fine."
In the next few days, Zhang Chi encountered attacks one after another.
Mines, tea rooms, bathrooms, stairs, cafeteria corridors, in short, any place where she might appear alone - there was a 50% chance of being followed, or an ambush set up in advance.
Fortunately, she never encountered the same strange species as "Mine Boss" and "Ant-Man".
She has extraordinary skills - at least this body has very fast reflexes and very strong muscles. Without any thermal weapons, she will not be at a disadvantage in a head-on fight -
But you can't escape unscathed.
She was hospitalized one after another.
Ankle sprain, forehead contusion, shoulder blade dislocation...
She was very unfamiliar with these people.
Especially those prisoners who have been modified with mechanical prosthetics.
The parts of their modifications vary, but they are basically concentrated on the hands, feet, ears, and teeth - a lot of people have metal teeth installed, with red, blue, yellow, and green powder, ranging from one to more than a dozen. These teeth are not What's special about it is probably just an aesthetic. All parts are made of different materials and have different hardnesses.
Some people's ears are very soft, and they feel like touching cotton when you hit them. Some people's ears are very hard, like minerals, without any room for expansion and contraction.
The transformation of the hands is the most bizarre.
Just like sports cars, they all have four wheels, but the body designs are very different. Without affecting the driving force, the main purpose is to be as cool as possible. Some palms are even so beautiful that they can be called works of art.
Zhang Chi felt that he had entered a blind spot of knowledge.
*
The library is very large, but not too many books - at least compared to its floor space.
There is a large area in the middle that is vacant, similar to a classroom. It is full of tables and benches, with only the space on the surrounding walls surrounded by rows of books and magazines. The lights are very bright. Even on the third underground floor, there is nothing here. No vignetting.
Zhang Chi walked past the bookshelf——

Zhang Chi: "..."
There are very few serious books, and more of them are magazines - and outdated magazines. There are many stamps stamped with "Donation" on them.
Inmates go to work during the day, and after 6 o'clock, there will be people in the library one after another, but there are not many people - noisy is not allowed here. More people like to go outside the building, to a playground surrounded by a grid, where they can blow wind, chat, and even inquire for information.
Zhang Chi sat down in the corner of the library.
After reading about a dozen magazines and newspapers that might be about aliens and mechanical prosthetics, it was 9pm.
She casually picked the two thickest books from the bookshelf and took them away.
The amount of information in the magazine is very large, and there is mutual circumstantial evidence. Basically, the following conclusions can be drawn -
First, about the aliens. What is certain is that a pollution fifty years ago led to the fusion of some human genes and animals under unknown circumstances. The product of this fusion is called alien blood.
Animal-like characteristics began to appear on them. Even if they were fused with the same animal genes, the time, state, and location of the appearance of the characteristics were completely irregular. Some of them can control the appearance of traits and some can't, some of them are contagious and some of them aren't.
Even if the infectious people with different blood account for less than 1% of the total number of people with different blood, it is enough to plunge the entire society into panic.
Society is very repulsive to people of different bloods.
Some people have called for a ban on people of different blood having offspring - but current evidence shows that unless both parents are of different blood, the genes of people of different blood do not seem to be passed on to the next generation.
Government departments prohibit people with different blood from joining, and universities have restricted the majors that people with different blood can apply for - biology, law, criminal investigation, and weapons research and development, are all fields that people with different blood are prohibited from getting involved in.
People with different blood account for less than 5% of the world's population, making them the fringes of society. However, the crime rate of aliens is extremely high, far exceeding the average crime rate of citizens in any country.
According to surveys, one out of every three people with different blood has been in prison.
They seem to have a natural criminal gene.
This is another important reason why people of different blood are excluded from society.
Secondly, regarding mechanical prosthetics, this technology has been used for more than a hundred years. There are three companies that produce mechanical prostheses that are often mentioned in newspapers, Hain Technology, Zhisheng Technology, and the scientific research institute of the Austrian Empire.
The transformation of mechanical prostheses requires government approval, and the process is very complicated, so many conceptual products take at least three years from design to production. Among them, the ethical and social risks of mechanical prostheses are the most frequently discussed topics.
Hain Technology has a subsidiary called Hain Military Industry. The products and related accessories it produces are exclusively for the military. It is one of the first companies to invest in the field of mechanical prosthetics production. It is an established enterprise. The price of its full line of products is basically the same among similar products. The most expensive of all companies.
The prosthetic hand in Zhou Ke's hand is a product of Hain Technology, a military product, and has not yet entered the market - but he can't be sure, after all, this magazine has expired for several years.
But the most expensive thing is often not the purchase of mechanical prostheses, but the installation and subsequent maintenance. Mechanical prostheses have a certain service life, and the neurologists responsible for installing prostheses in regular hospitals and institutions charge very high fees. As a result, a black market industry chain was born——
A full range of services from prosthetic procurement to installation and even repair.
Of course, this is illegal. Because it is not regulated by the market, the quality of service varies.
There are many news on the market about complete nerve necrosis due to failed installation by private doctors.
In general, mechanical prosthetics and aliens are an issue that has nothing to do with most people's lives - even if it often appears in the news and cutting-edge information.
In addition to the military, government departments in various countries tend to recruit "native people" who have not undergone any physical modification to work.
The more chaotic the place, the higher the ratio of modified people and people with different blood.
Slums, black states, gangsters, mercenaries, thugs...
They regard the prosthetic limb as a weapon, just like a poor black state member who carries a pistol in his pocket. It is a symbol of identity and status.
Normal people, people living in a civilized world, may never interact with these two types of people in their lives.
Zhang Chi put the magazine on his face.
The probability of winning the lottery is to meet so many Wolong and Fengxiao.
