    • PBS Ch19: Control Cover
      by Aria — Qiu Shi rarely feels fear. For a corpse collector who grew up outside the city, anything that could be seen, touched, and killed, whether human or otherwise, was not frightening. But this Xing Bi, who could be seen and touched and probably could be killed given the opportunity to control him now, made him feel fear. Xing Bi was someone he was willing to trust, his only support in this unknown environment when facing danger. Most of the time, he didn't deliberately think about Xing Bi's identity.…
    • PBS Ch18: Factory Settings Cover
      by Aria — This was probably the quietest night Qiu Shi had ever experienced. Even when he was outside the city, during the "jungle" period, when everything was desolate and lifeless, it was never this silent. Corpse collectors would talk, move around, and some weathered rocks would suddenly dislodge and roll down the mountainside. Even the moon seemed to make a sound. But here, it was very quiet. Apart from occasionally catching the faint sound of flowing water, there was only the increasingly weak crackling…

      PBS Ch17: Tools Cover
      by Aria — He must trust Xing Bi. This time, heading to Donglin Town, from survival safety to the route forward, whether they could make it there alive, every step depended on Xing Bi. Qiu Shi suddenly deeply realized the significant difference between humans and bioroids. After it got completely dark, he glanced at Xing Bi, who was still driving. "Do you need to rest?" "Not now," Xing Bi said. "You sleep." "How much fuel is left in the car?" Qiu Shi asked. "If the car is still in the same place when…
    • PBS Ch16: Meaning Cover
      by Aria — Donglin Town was northeast of Yun City, so they did not leave through the tunnel exit at Dahei Mountain but instead headed out through the forest on the woodland side. This meant going north past the previous black nest and then heading east. "We haven't even left the door, and we're already getting beaten back," Qiu Shi said. "Avoid the nest," came Li Feng's voice through the headset. "Thanks for stating the obvious," Qiu Shi said, "Is there always someone listening in on this…
    • PBS Ch15: The Vast Expanse Cover
      by Aria — The Vast Expanse "I must be controllable," Xing Bi said. Qiu Shi continued to look at him, not knowing how to interpret Xing Bi's response. Given the current situation where they could be monitored everywhere, and possibly having undiscovered devices implanted in their bodies, Qiu Shi didn't pursue the matter further. He just said, "This time out, the lives of my brothers are in our hands. As long as they're not dead, they have to come back." "I know," Xing Bi replied. "Is there anything…
    • PBS Ch14: Controllable State Cover
      by Aria — The personnel stationed outside the city were all military. Deng Yeye's actions quickly reached the general. When Director Zhang received a call request from Colonel Xu, his face looked grim. He glanced at Li Feng, "Tell your people not to act yet." "The Security Bureau only has a three-person team there," Li Feng said, "and they are unarmed; they can't act." Director Zhang gritted his teeth, put on his headset, transferred the call to private mode, and walked to the side. Li Feng's call with…
    • PBS Ch13: Family Cover
      by Aria — Li Feng's car stopped at the side entrance of Yun City Prison. This was an internal passage, so no outsiders would pass by. He still didn't drive his own car, instead sitting in the prisoner transport vehicle of the City Defense Bureau. Moreover, he was sitting in the escort compartment. One of the refugees in the car had already been sent to the dungeon. He had to wait here for the people inside to bring out Zhang Sihai. He had done this kind of tedious task quite a few times and was very…
    • PBS Ch12: History Cover
      by Aria — This was the second time Qiu Shi experienced the life in the inner city, which seemed like another world. The room where he was arranged to rest was clean and tidy, the bed was very soft, and there were many lights—on the desk, in the corner of the wall, on the ceiling, and there were even several paintings on the walls. There was also a bathroom in the room, which was great for a corpse collector who had to bathe in the hot springs near the corpse hole in groups of three, while taking turns to…
    • PBS Ch11: Symbiosis Cover
      by Aria — Four bright spots were still visible on the map. Besides the one charging toward Qiu Shi, three were engaged in a fight with Xing Bi and A, B, and C. Qiu Shi could already see the face of the approaching bioroid. It was fairly good-looking, but there was nothing memorable about it. Qiu Shi had seen countless faces—beautiful, ugly, and ordinary—but never one that would be forgotten in the blink of an eye. He aimed at the forgettable face through his scope. At this distance, with several trees in…
    • PBS Ch10: Ensuring Survival Cover
      by Aria — "Let him out," Li Feng pointed at Xing Bi, who was still trapped inside the cage. "That's against the rules, Director Li," Director Zhang said, crossing his arms. "What's really against the rules is that Li Datou was thrown in the dungeon but wasn't killed," Li Feng replied. The muscles on Director Zhang's face twitched twice. "You aren't even pretending anymore, are you?" "We don't have time. Just half an hour; half an hour later, Mr. Long's assistant will be here. Tick tock, tick tock, tick…
