Lin Mo’s consciousness gradually became clear from the chaos. Before he fully woke up, the instinct accumulated from his last escape, that lasted for more than a year, forced him to open his eyes. Even though his heart was beating fast, Lin Mo still reduced the sound of his breathing. Although Lin Mo was disappointed that he had not died from such a severe injury, what he had to do now was to try not to let the researchers catch him.

However, when Lin Mo’s vision became clear, he found that something was wrong. If he guessed right, he should have a mosquito net around him, right? He clearly remembered that where he fell unconscious was a dank alley surrounded by zombies. Lin Mo turned his head to the other side to observe where he was now.

Incorrect! It was all wrong!

Before Lin Mo came up with a plan, he heard footsteps coming from a distance approaching closer. Lin Mo was anxious.

Squeak… The door opened, and two ten-year-old-looking children, who looked exactly the same, and were a pair of twins, walked in. Lin Mo had tensed up when he saw the children coming in, but when he saw something in one of the children’s hands, his attention was diverted.

He smelled the scent of food.

“Fourth Brother, wake up!” The ten-year-old with the porcelain bowl said happily when he saw that his Fourth Brother was awake.

Lin Mo didn’t respond to him but still kept his eyes fixed on the bowl in his hand. His nearly rusty brain began to work slowly. It seemed that he hadn’t eaten normal food for more than three years, let alone a bowl of hot porridge.

In the Research Institute, the place where Lin Mo stayed most was the operating table. In order not to let him die, those people injected him with fluids to maintain his physiological function. Then, more than a year later, his food became more and more strange, and could no longer be called food.

“Mother and Elder brother went to the fields to weed. Sister-in-law is feeding our nephew and niece. Today, Sixth Brother and I will take care of Fourth Brother.” Lin Xing went to bed with the bowl.

“Fifth Brother, Fourth Brother should be hungry.” Lin Chen reminded the wordy Lin Xing.

“Ah? Oh, get Fourth Brother up first.” Lin Xing put the bowl on the wooden table and asked Lin Chen to come and help.

Lin Chen skillfully took off his shoes and climbed into the bed. The two children, one by one, lifted Lin Mo on the bed and made him lean on the edge of the bed.

Lin Mo’s conditioned reflex was to avoid their touch, but his body was unable to move.

Lin Mo looked at them expressionless and tensed his nerves. It was all so weird. Was this a vision created by a psychic? But Lin Mo quickly denied the conjecture thinking that even the most advanced psychic couldn’t change his body. Obviously, this body was not his original one.

Before Lin Mo could figure anything out, he was attracted by the smell of food. The smell of meat and rice porridge made Lin Mo swallow his saliva. Lin Mo ate the porridge that the child fed him, and the warm porridge slowly warmed his body.

It was so warm, this wasn’t a dream?

“Fourth Brother, why are you crying?” Lin Xing saw his fourth elder brother eating and weeping. He was a little flustered, his brother didn’t have a fever still, right?

Lin Chen heard this and looked up, saw that his Fourth Brother had no expression, but his eyes were red, and a few tears had already trickled down to his neck. Lin Chen hurriedly took out a cloth from under the pillow to wipe his tears and touched his forehead.
