For a mont, Chen Ye almost truly believed this creature's words.
There was no helping it—"Lin Shu Tong's" words were too sincere, and her every move was practically indistinguishable from Lin Shu Tong's.
The most incomprehensible part was that this "Lin Shu Tong" even knew so of his mories.
This made one's heart run cold.
Moreover, Chen Ye discovered that as the Monster Pickup Truck got closer, this Anomaly looked more and more like Lin Shu Tong.
It seed the closer the distance between them, the more complete the mories it could receive.
This ability...
It was like Wi-Fi—the closer you are to the router, the better the signal.
It was downright terrifying.
"Chen Ye, didn't you always think I had a great figure?"
"Chen Ye, you... didn't you always peek at ?"
"Chen Ye... you..."
Chen Ye's face darkened.
Although he genuinely did think Lin Shu Tong had an excellent figure.
But that was only from an appreciative perspective.
He had never harbored any filthy thoughts about this woman.
He was never the type of man who couldn't take his eyes off a beautiful woman.
Nor was he soone who would abandon his principles for the sake of beauty.
Of course, being a normal man, he would naturally take an extra glance when seeing a pretty woman.
But being a normal man, at most he'd just take a few extra glances.
"Please, save ..."
"I really am Lin Shu Tong, I really am Lin Shu Tong!"
"Chen Ye..."
"I'm not an Anomaly!"
As she spoke, two clear streams of tears fell from Lin Shu Tong's eyes.
Chen Ye shuddered all over!
Wait, Anomalies can cry?
This is fucking...
"Chen Ye, you were right back then, I shouldn't have brought them out!"
"I'm too weak, too weak!"
"I'm sorry, I..."
Tears had already covered that face.
Tears mixed with snot congealed into a long, stringy line under her chin.
"Not long after we left, we encountered an Anomaly, everyone in the entire convoy died!"
"Tang Le Le died, Su Jisheng died, Uncle Zhao died, Auntie Hou died too..."
"They all died..."
Tears stread down Lin Shu Tong's cheeks, the regret and remorse on her face pouring out along with the tears, all presented before Chen Ye's eyes.
Lin Shu Tong was sincerely confessing before Chen Ye.
Chen Ye's vehicle kept moving forward, and Lin Shu Tong kept running alongside the vehicle.
Chen Ye's vehicle accelerated, and Lin Shu Tong accelerated outside the window too.
"Chen Ye, I'm not an Anomaly, I'm just... just possessed by an Anomaly!"
"You just saw without a face, didn't you..."
"I'm just being haunted by an Anomaly, Chen Ye, I need help now!"
"I... I don't want to die!"
Chen Ye coldly watched "Lin Shu Tong's" performance.
Truth be told, he was now about thirty percent convinced that the woman before him might actually be Lin Shu Tong.
But... so what?
A woman appearing in a place like this in the dead of night.
Even if it was Lin Shu Tong.
Chen Ye wouldn't stop the vehicle or open the door to let Lin Shu Tong in.
Even if he was one hundred percent certain this was "Lin Shu Tong!"
He still wouldn't open the car door!
Besides, she admitted it herself just now—she's haunted by an Anomaly.
If he let her in, wouldn't that an bringing the Anomaly aboard?
Even if he could deal with this Anomaly.
Chen Ye would absolutely never do such a foolish thing...
Chen Ye stomped on the gas, accelerating.
The Monster Pickup Truck roared and shot far ahead, leaving "Lin Shu Tong" behind in an instant.
Watching Lin Shu Tong run after the vehicle for a few steps before stumbling and falling to the ground, breaking down into wailing sobs.
Chen Ye's face was as cold as a block of ice, the cigarette at the corner of his mouth now just a burnt-out butt.
"Yezi, what happened?"
Chu Che's voice ca through the radio.
His tone carried a hint of anxiety and tension.
"It's Lin Shu Tong!"
"Lin Shu Tong?"
The Pink-haired Girl's voice instantly rose several octaves, sounding sowhat sharp for a mont.
"No, I'm not sure if it's Lin Shu Tong, she... she's very similar!"
"Be careful, all of you!"
This Anomaly was just too similar.
It could not only access his mories but also integrate and rationalize the illogical parts.
Back when escaping from Rong City, Chen Ye had encountered similar rule-based Anomalies.
But those Anomalies still had clear distinctions from humans.
You could even tell at a glance that sothing was off about them.
But this current Anomaly was almost ninety percent similar to Lin Shu Tong.
If he hadn't been cautious enough, he might have believed this was the "Lin Shu Tong" who had just left not long ago.
If soone else had encountered it, not him...
They would likely et the sa fate.
Watching the woman still wailing and sobbing in the rearview mirror, Chen Ye gritted his teeth.
Could it be... she really is Lin Shu Tong.
But just then.
Chen Ye saw a figure appear beside Chu Che's vehicle as well.
It was an unfamiliar old man, hunched over with a stooped back, his graying hair fluttering in the evening breeze, looking sowhat haggard.
But when this hunched old man appeared.
Chen Ye could clearly see Chu Che's off-road vehicle slam on the brakes hard.
This is... Old Bao!
Chen Ye's heart sank with a bad feeling.
He quickly slamd on the brakes, making the Monster Pickup Truck spin one hundred eighty degrees on the spot.
The Monster Pickup Truck ca to a steady stop.
Chen Ye's remaining left eye, its crimson pupil, instantly contracted to the size of a needle tip.
Escape?
How to escape?
Anomalies were everywhere.
Without teammates.
Without a pathfinder, Chen Ye wasn't sure if he could survive twenty-four hours.
Not only did Chu Che's vehicle have this reaction.
Even the Pink-haired Girl Sun Xixi's side was the sa.
A very pretty girl who bore a forty to fifty percent resemblance to Sun Xixi also appeared.
This girl stood right on the road in front of the Pink-haired Girl's off-road vehicle.
Then they saw this off-road vehicle leave a long skid mark on the ground.
Just as the vehicle was about to hit this girl.
This suddenly appearing girl closed her eyes, looking afraid but feeling she had no choice but to do this.
It was just... just exactly like a living person.
Not only that...
The other vehicles were the sa.
Standing in front of Ding Dong's Panel Van was none other than Zhou Lan...
Zhou Lan, whom they hadn't seen in a long ti, gentle and graceful, just stood by the roadside looking at Zhou Xiaoxiao through the car window.
Upon seeing this face.
Zhou Xiaoxiao's entire body jolted as if electrocuted.
Her mouth fell open, and she pointed excitedly at Zhou Lan outside the window, wanting to say sothing, but feeling like a wad of cotton was stuck in her throat.
This feeling was like...
Like desperately wanting to say sothing, but her throat and tongue had lost all strength.
Chen Ye also saw Zhou Lan.
Upon seeing this "Zhou Lan," Chen Ye's heart also gave a slight jolt.
Similar, too similar...
Not only that, the other three large vehicles encountered similar situations.
Beside Iron Lion's school bus stood a full seven or eight figures.
Those figures just stood by the roadside, waving and greeting the people inside the school bus.
The school bus slamd on the brakes, and many faces pressed against the windows, eyes wide open as they stared at these figures.
So people's reactions weren't much better than Zhou Xiaoxiao's.
They opened their mouths wide, wanting to say sothing but nothing ca out, only tears falling uncontrollably.
Xu Lina and Doctor Luo's vehicle was the sa.
A weathered old woman stood right beside Bus Number Six, her exhausted face close enough to touch, waving and greeting Xu Lina inside the vehicle.
Xu Lina clenched her teeth tightly, her eyes as red as a rabbit's.
Her delicate hands gripped the vehicle's handrail fiercely, the blue veins clearly visible.
Tears stread down her cheeks like broken strings of pearls, falling to the ground.
