In the freezer at minus 80 °C, Zheng Zhuo clenched the mouth of the bag with his frozen red hand.

The woman's body was right in front of her. Her face was dark.

Zheng Zhuo's face was also pale.

Because it's cold.

"Can't you go out? We're going to freeze to death here! ”

In the back, the young woman covered the door of the cold storage cabinet and shook the flashlight function of the holographic glasses through the warehouse.

"You can't drag this corpse out and inspect it again!" Zheng Zhuo shouted in a low voice, fiddling with the bag with a trembling hand, "The drone will find out the situation immediately...... Will call the police! ”

"If we both die here, it's not a question of whether or not to report to the police!"

"I know...... I know, but ......! ”

Zheng Zhuo carefully looked at the face of the female corpse.

Big wavy curly hair, I can see that I painted delicate makeup before I was born.

This face, this person.

Zheng Zhuo recognized it, and was very convinced.

She is the "love species".

(Dead...... ）”

What should I do if I die?

Zheng Zhuo had no clue at all, and pulled the black bag down a little more.

The long red dress on her body was revealed. Even in cold storage, even on a lifeless body, it still shines brightly. On the chest, black blood explodes like a decorative corsage.

(Shot in the chest.) ）”

Zheng Zhuo had seen this scene when he was watching the cards.

He tried to pull the female corpse's body. The body was so stiff from the zombie and freezing that it couldn't move at all. In addition, Zheng Zhuo's fingers had begun to lose sensation due to ultra-low temperature, and there was no way to confirm what he was holding.

(Is that all there is to it?) ）”

The participant died. It's not like Chen Qingshi, who doesn't have any clues that can be cleared.

How do you leave this world?

Just when Zheng Zhuo began to get anxious, he saw a flash of golden light at the gunshot wound on the female corpse's chest.

"What?"

He reached out and pulled away the cloth that had been shattered by the impact.

The soft golden light, the pattern of the woman and the text underneath.

He saw that the golden luster of the [Love] card was embedded in the chest of the female corpse that had been pierced by a large-caliber gun.

At this moment, a green spot lit up in the frozen hair of the female corpse.

Meanwhile......

“…… Rustle rustle ......"

"Ugh!"

Zheng Zhuo started to have a headache again! More intense than ever...... He hears human voices.

“…… You ......"

“…… Foss...... Also ......"

“…… Didn't stop ......"

A woman's voice.

"I'm sorry!"

Zheng Zhuo waved his hand forward. He waved the female corpse's hair, the brittle hair breaking in the middle, revealing the hologlasses clipped to the female corpse's ear.

The green dot just now is the running light of the holographic glasses.

Zheng Zhuo pulled the holographic glasses off the female corpse's ears. The female corpse's ears creaked with a tooth-aching sound.

Zheng Zhuo's hand is also the same. His hands grew redder and swollen. Barely able to grip.

"Gone!"

As soon as I exerted my hand, I felt a pinprick pain. The head too. Zheng Zhuo knew he couldn't stay any longer.

The young woman immediately opened the door.

The two landed on the road with a cold wind.

The door closed behind it, and there was a mechanical sound of a confirmed departure and a re-lock. The young woman is still standing. And Zheng Zhuo, if it wasn't for the young woman who helped him, he almost fell.

“…… Foss...... They can't ......."

The green light in his hand was still flickering. Zheng Zhuo's holographic glasses also continued to give him intense headaches. The young woman picked him up and pushed him into the car, half-pulling and half-dragging.

……

Airplanes......

Gentle, warm air start-up sounds.

The coldness that penetrated into the bone marrow was slowly disappearing. Zheng Zhuo slowly felt his fingers and toes again.

The feeling of swelling is still there. However, it is much better than just now. But...... Wait a minute......

I can't feel the hologlasses that I originally held in the palm of my hand.

“！”

Zheng Zhuo bounced out of the back seat of the car.

The shadow cast by the railing covers the bodywork. The interior of the car was a little dark, and there was a faint green light.

The young woman sat next to her. She fiddled with the holographic glasses that Zheng Zhuo had brought out.

…… Rustling......

The green light of the holographic glasses is getting brighter. A shaky stereoscopic projection was projected into the car.

Seeing the appearance of the stereoscopic projection, Zheng Zhuo and the young woman both widened their glasses slightly.

Long curly hair, heavy eyeshadow and stylish makeup.

This stereoscopic projection is the appearance of [Love Species].

More surprising is yet to come.

“…… Can you hear me? Feed? ”

"Can ......"

"Great! I've been trying to connect through the channels I've established, but I've never been able to keep in touch with the outside world! ”

[Love species] actually reacted to Zheng Zhuo's words! If you change the other side to anyone, Zheng Zhuo will think that she is making a video call with her.

But Zheng Zhuo understood that this was impossible.

Because the [love species] is dead! He even walked away from her corpse just now!

"Who are you?"

Zheng Zhuo looked at the projection of the [love species] and asked.

"Me? I'm deep. She said. At the same time, Zheng Zhuo realized that the holographic glasses had turned on the scanning mode.

"FOSS employees, and my peers." The self-proclaimed "deep" [Love] nodded in the holographic projection, "I haven't touched the [Paradise Project] yet...... As a target for contact, it is a good candidate. ”

Her reaction was too natural.

Is she still alive? Is this me?

Zheng Zhuo looked at the young woman. And the young woman probably thought the same thing, and frowned.

And Shen seemed to see their doubts.

"I'm Shen myself. It can also be said that it is not me. ”

Shen said.

"I killed Foss. Knowing that I was going to die, I uploaded my consciousness into my holographic glasses before I died. ”

"The AI iterated with my EEG data and simulated my way of thinking. Now, I am a virtual human born from learning the memories and thinking styles of a human named 'Shen'. ”

"I didn't know the technology here was already capable of doing this?"

The young woman said.

"This is a new technology from FUCHS, which is named "Project Paradise". It is still in the experimental stage. ”

Said deeply.

"The original 'deep' used it. But her actions were actually aimed at preventing the program from being promoted and popularized. ”

"Because...... A few...... More ......"

…… Rustling......

The image flashed and vanished.

Zheng Zhuo looked at the holographic projection in the young woman's hand.

The light turned from green to red, flashed, and went out.

It's out of battery.

……

The holographic glasses vibrate with the road conditions on the on-board charging port. The autopilot system drove smoothly into the already dark Lodo.

As the white car merged, the young woman looked back.

Minato has become a large hazy shadow in the night.

"Just put the deep corpse in the warehouse, okay?"

"There's no place to put it, there's nowhere else to put it."

Zheng Zhuo put his hand on the steering wheel and said.

"No one has bothered us until now. It seems that there is no way to monitor the situation in the warehouse. As long as there are no accidents, you should be able to put it all the time. I'm more concerned about ...... That card. ”

The golden cards have entered the bodies of the participants. And at that time, the "soul" of the participants was also there.

Even though that's virtual.

However, neither of them returned.

"Are we not coming back because the [Pure White World] has collapsed?" Zheng Zhuo asked the young woman.

"It stands to reason that the collapse of the [Pure White World] will not affect our return to ...... Unless the 'Professor' closes the exit. The young woman thought for a moment and said.

"So what do we do now?"

Zheng Zhuo looked at the holographic glasses that were still charging. The green light above flashed and flashed.

"It's up to you."

The young woman said.

"Your [Subliminal Vote] still works, right? I don't need anything here. ”

……
