    Chapter 46

    For every word he said, Shen Ti held a firm skeptical attitude.

    Because he has experienced it, it is very clear that An Wu Jiu is in a vicious and complicated stage in front of him, only because he thinks that no one in the room is a threat to him, will he restrain his sharp thorns a little.

    Once threatened, he would immediately raise the gun in his hand.

    In fact, no matter whether he is good or evil, An Wu Jiu has one thing that is constant. Beneath his seemingly amorous exterior is a ruthless heart.

    No matter how kind he is, he is also ruthless.

    Therefore, the protection he said is true and false.

    "Why did you pull me just now?"

    When asked this question, Shen Ti knew that An Wu Jiu would probably not answer him, and even if he answered, it would probably be a prevarication.

    Sure enough, An Wu Jiu's arrogance gradually faded away, he withdrew his gun and lowered his head to reload.

    When he raised his head again, An Wujiu stared at Shen Ti with an indistinguishable smile in his eyes.

    "My benefits haven't been redeemed, you are dead, where can I go to have fun?"

    After he finished speaking, he walked to the return service area, and Shen Ti was also with him. An Wu Jiu glanced at Shen Ti's hand pretending to be unintentional, and found that Shen Ti didn't hold the wound at all, the place where the blood was dripping just now is no longer bleeding at all.

    This is a bit too fast.

    "The gloves are off, let me see."

    Shen Ti didn't intend to hide, but he didn't intend to listen to An Wu Jiu's words honestly. He put his hand in front of An Wujiu and made a "you take it off yourself" expression.

    An Wu Jiu snorted and did not stretch out his hands, his eyes glanced at the slit where the leather gloves were cut, the blood that was about to dry up covered the faint wound.

    Not quite right.

    But An Wu Jiu didn't know whether the fast healing power was because of the game or because of Shen Ti.

    He also thought of what he said when Shen Ti's hand was injured, "It's nothing to me".

    Is it really nothing?

    Seeing that An Wujiu didn't speak, Shen Ti withdrew his hand, "It doesn't hurt."

    An Wu Jiu felt that this person was inexplicable, "Did I ask you?"

    Shen Ti paused for a moment, and while walking forward, he continued to speak nonsense: "I was in a game once, in a round of games a long time ago, when I was cut off by a monster on my left arm. The whole one, start from here." He even looked at his left shoulder to show An Wujiu.

    But An Wu Jiu just thought it was ridiculous, he didn't want to listen to the story, so he sneered.

    But this sneer was also regarded by Shen Ti as a response. He continued, "At that time, I thought that I could finally die this time. Although it hurt a little, I felt a sense of relief in my heart."

    "As a result, the monster didn't continue to chop me. He seemed to have a visual impairment. After he chopped off his arm, he ran in the other direction and chopped up the others." Shen Ti's green eyes seemed to have fireflies. In flashing, very beautiful, "I reflected on it later, maybe because the person screamed and attracted the attention of the monster, I didn't remember to scream at the time."

    Obviously the description was dry, not even a decent description, but An Wu Jiu actually had a little curiosity.

    But he held back, not ready to ask questions.

    In the distance, An Wu Jiu heard Wu You's voice and seemed to be arguing for something.

    As if talking to himself, Shen Ti said slowly: "Later I picked up the arm that was cut off by myself and walked to a place where it looked like it was easy to encounter monsters, but I was too tired. I just sat on the ground with my arms in my arms and fell asleep."

    After finishing speaking, he looked at An Wujiu with an expression that was about to sigh, "It's not dead yet."

    For a moment, An Wu Jiu wanted to use the gun in his hand to complete this guy, but the next second he thought again.

    It would be better to torture him if he was left alive.

    Either way, it's an extremely bad idea.

    “It’s really good to have a great life.” An Wu Jiu raised his eyebrows, “If you really want to die, you can leave this life to me.”

    His tone seemed to be pre-ordering a new medal on his shoulders, or a long-awaited fine postage stamp.

    Not only that, An Wu Jiu also deliberately patted Shen Ti's left arm.

    While talking, they had reached the door of the return room.

    An Wu Jiu frowned.

    There is baby laughter in it.

    Yang Erci woke up from the coma, and the scene in front of her left her speechless.

    They were in a factory-like place at the moment. The sloping walls on both sides and the entire wall on the north side were full of living cabins, square cabins as neat and dense as honeycombs.

    There were women of different skin colors in the cabin, and labels were displayed outside the cabin, showing their weight, height, blood type, education and other information, but there was no name.

    Yes, no names, but they have their own numbers.

    These women are locked in the cabin like some kind of animals, and some are being cleaned. The cleaning process is very convenient, and there is no need to change the venue. Evenly water was sprayed from the top of the square cabin and drenched them on their bodies. The water stopped quickly, and the next process was drying.

    Hot air gushed out from all sides of the cabin, and they waited naked for drying, but were not allowed to wear clothes, perhaps because the clothes would affect the system's monitoring of the health of the fetus. In short, they stayed inside, exposing their precious stomachs .

    A more delicate and smaller robotic arm appeared in the cabin, distributed them the exact same food, and then "actively" injected them with nutritional injections.

    There is no right to refuse.

    During the whole process, they didn't seem to be human, or even biological.

    It is an item, a product source.

    an organ.

    After entering the return room, Wu You always felt that Nanshan was abnormal, but it was not because of physical strength.

    For example, at this moment, he saw Nan Shan staring at the [Return Instructions] on the wall for a long time, as if in a daze.

    So Wu You also followed.

    [1. After identification, if the baby belongs to the level of disability (disability, congenital disease, maternal-fetal infection, mental retardation, etc.), 50% of the breeding fee will be refunded.

    2. If the baby dies after seven days of birth, 50% of the breeding fee will be refunded, and the custom fee will be waived to breed a new baby for you.

    3. The agency will not be responsible for the illness, injury or death of the infant caused by human beings.

    4. If it is not the baby's own reasons, the agency will not accept returns.

    5. Babies are special commodities, please be careful when returning them. What you return may be a beautiful life of a human being. ]

    It's ironic that the first four are put together with the last.

    Wu You turned his face sideways and saw that Nan Shan was still in a daze.

    "Hey, priest."

    Only then did Nan Shan come back to her senses and turned her face, "What's wrong?"

    "What's wrong with you?" Wu You frowned, "You've been stuck for a long time."

    "It's nothing." Nan Shan smiled at him, but didn't say anything else, "Check if there are any files or labels. There may be clues in the text materials."

    Josh inspected those incubators, and the children in them were almost asleep. There is a label on the upper left corner of the glass incubator, which reads gender, production time, and reason for return.

    These children don't even have a name, just a cold string of numbers.

    "Reason for the return: Congenitally low vision." Josh read aloud, thinking the reason was unreasonable, "Why? It's just that the eyesight is not very good. How many people have vision problems, how can they not have children because of this? "

    Nan Shan lowered her head and looked at the other children, while answering his puzzlement, "Because they are essentially bought by themselves. The children born by themselves, no matter what, are destined results and obtained by pouring love into them. Crystal, so rare is too picky."

    "But once it becomes a purchased commodity, you only pay for a sperm and an egg, and even buy an egg. If you give what you get for money, you will have the mentality of value for money or even value for money. , even the slightest flaw is unacceptable.”

    Josh felt powerless. In addition to this reason, there are many, many less than perfect reasons for abandonment.

    On the other hand, he felt sympathy for couples who were infertile.

    "But people who can't have children, they are also very..."

    The corner of Nan Shan's raised mouth has a hint of a wry smile, "There are a lot of children in this world, just want to raise a child, what a simple matter."

    "But sometimes what they want is not a child who needs to be raised well, but an exclusive thing marked with themselves, to prove their existence, and even use this child to make themselves more 'complete'. Only That's all."

    "Do you have to use someone else's womb to give birth if you can't give birth? Since artificial wombs have appeared, why must young and beautiful women be forced to give up their mothers?"

    Wu You can't accept this point of view, although he has always been taciturn, but at this moment he feels that he can't keep silent.

    "Do you know about black swans? I've seen a recruitment advertisement on the largest online black market. It clearly lists the price of various human organs, from internal organs to sexual organs. At the bottom of the advertisement is the recruitment of pregnant mothers, and different prices are given according to different requirements. : $20,000 for multiple births, $15,000 for caesarean section, white blond beauty who graduated from a famous university, the price is more beautiful, more than that, for humanitarian reasons, they will also pay, for example, if there is danger after childbirth, need $10,000 for removal of the uterus."

    "I don't have a uterus, and I haven't really seen these pregnant mothers, but just from this advertisement, I know that this is not the right thing." Wu You's expression was solemn, "According to such business rules, who are they? Humans, or the womb?"

    Josh couldn't find any reason to justify his rudeness just now, so he sincerely apologized.

    Wu You stopped talking, and the atmosphere became very heavy. Nan Shan, who thought she would liven up the atmosphere, chose to remain silent at this time.

    Intuition tells Wu You that Nan Shan seems to have hidden feelings.

    Maybe he too was outcast.

    Everyone checked the shelves, and Nanshan finally saw an unlabeled incubator in the penultimate row of the last shelf.

    The child in the incubator was a Caucasian newborn, perhaps only a few weeks old. On the surface, it doesn't seem like he has any disabilities.

    Nan Shan found that one of his hands seemed to be clenched tightly, and felt something was wrong. So he tried to find a way to open the incubator, but he looked around the edge, and the seam was tight, with few edges to pry open.

    But if the box is opened with force, it may injure the baby inside.

    So Nan Shan meditated cross-legged, placed the incubator in front of her, calculated the time in her heart, and made a seal with her hands.

    After Nan Shan took down the incubator, Josh actually found a micro hard drive where the box was placed, the same as what An Wu Jiu found before, except that what he found at that time was Nan Shan and Zhong Yirou's.

    What Josh found had his number written on it.

    After putting away the hard drive, Josh was about to step forward when he saw Nan Shan acting strangely, but was grabbed by Wu You, Wu You shook his head at him, and whispered that Nan Shan was casting a spell. Josh immediately felt sorry, nodded again and again, and stepped back. Although he knew that he was a Taoist priest, this was the first time he saw him cast spells. Immediately, a golden circular curse mark appeared, and the six-sided yellow talisman swirled a few times, affixed to each side of the incubator.

    A few seconds after Nanshan chanted the spell, a golden light flashed, and there was a cracking sound in the silence. It was the glass wall of the nursery box. The lid was opened under the effect of mana, and the spells did not disappear, but He wrapped the baby in the middle and delivered him safely to Nan Shan.

    "It actually works?" Josh couldn't believe his eyes.

    Although Wu You knew it was useful, he didn't want to show praise and admiration, and deliberately said to him, "There must be a real solution, you are cheating like this."

    "Cheating is also an ability." Nan Shan held the child's hand with a smile. Judging from the temperature, there didn't seem to be much difference. He gently opened the child's tightly held little hand. It took a while to break apart.

    Inside was just a small metal ball, nothing else.

    He took the ball, closed the child's hands, put him back in the incubator, stood up and put him back in place.

    Putting down the box, Nan Shan looked down at the metal ball the size of a fingernail in her hand, which showed that it was very smooth and had no marks.

    "It seems like there's nothing else left." Josh suggested to leave first, "I'm afraid that something will happen to them, isn't Yirou still fainting?"

    That's right, Wu You agrees. Just about to go. They heard slaps.

    It's like slapping the wall, and it's like slapping the door.

    Looking towards the door, Wu You saw An Wu Jiu and Shen Ti.

    Before he could figure out what the beating sound was, he heard An Wujiu ask him, "Didn't you hear the baby's laughter?"

    An Wu Jiu stood at the door and did not enter, but ordered them to come out.

    laughter?

    Several people in the room reacted immediately and walked out, but the slaps behind them became louder and denser.

    Countless pieces of glass finally shattered, making a loud noise. Shen Ti saw the returned babies crawling out of the glass box, their bodies swollen and swollen, and they quickly grew into strange blue-purple creatures like mutations, and they responded very quickly. One of them had caught Josh's ankle.

    "boom"

    There was a loud noise, and thick green mucus splashed on Josh's legs and arms, as well as his side face.

    "No blame, they are the children who were rejected..."

    "They're monsters that kill you."

    An Wu Jiu shoots without expression, without stopping for a moment, in his eyes, even if these monsters have the faces of babies without mutation, they are still fake, they are enemies fabricated from data.

    He tilted his head to aim, and the bullet casings quickly fell off the gun body, like the monsters in front of him falling down one by one.

    But there are too many.

    "Fuck, you should buy a machine gun."

    They quickly retreated, An Wu Jiu kicked the door closed.

    The group of monsters behind them screamed sharply, like crying, more like laughing.

    An Wu Jiu quickly reloaded, the shotgun's rate of fire was very limited, he could only shoot one headshot, and there were no false shots.

    But the ammo is running out.

    Just as he was about to shoot the last shot, he suddenly heard Shen Ti's voice.

    "Run back!"

    Shen Ti held his hand alone, An Wu Jiu saw what was thrown from Shen Ti's injured hand in the chaos.

    Then, the pipes behind them caught fire, and in the extremely hot air and fire, they fled to the square porch they first entered, and the skeletons of the killed robots were still there.

    "I also exchanged one," Shen Ti didn't seem to be affected by the incendiary bombs dropped at close range, behind him was the painful howl of a monster covered in fire, and he explained the fire indifferently, "Use whatever you want, the effect will be great. not bad."

    There was a calm and complacent look on his face that shouldn't be seen after a crime.

    An Wu Jiu glanced at the tubular passage after that, the monster on fire collapsed in a twisted manner, red like a burning sunset, entangled in a ball.

    He smiled and looked at Shen Ti, "What is this?"

    Shen Ti thought seriously for two seconds.

    "Let's join forces," he said.

    The author has something to say:

    The job advertisement mentioned by Wu You in the article is actually real, with a lower "price". It appeared in the "European uterus" Ukraine and circulated on Facebook. The content is probably like this:

    "Emergency Plan! We are looking for a mother to carry twins!!! The embryos are ready!

    Not more than 35 years old. Payment terms: Program Incentives - EUR 14,000; Monthly - EUR 300; Clothes - EUR 300; Embryo Transfer - EUR 300.

    Risks and Compensation: – if a caesarean section is required – 1,000 euros – if an abortion is required – 80 euros per week of pregnancy – loss of fallopian tubes – 1,500 euros – loss of uterus – 3,000 euros – having to wait due to the fault of the embryo’s parents – 100 euros/month, 90 days from the date of signing - requires surgical intervention - 300 EUR If interested please leave me a message.

    You can watch some interviews about surrogate mothers. In fact, their living environment is not even as good as the high-tech surrogacy factory described in the article. It is a place like a cowshed. Little by little, the money didn't even end up in his own hands. When this industry really becomes a chain, if you want to exploit more from the surrogate mother, you must start from the "quality" of the mother. By the way, if you see the so-called "egg donation" small advertisement , must not be deceived, it is very difficult for women to retrieve eggs, and it is very harmful to the body.
