Quick Transmigration: Help, The Male Leads Are All Broken!

Often, one lie requires countless others to maintain it, but Su Tang wasn't worried, because she herself was one giant lie.

So, without blinking, she spoke, seven parts falsehood and three parts truth: "The scars on my body? I got them while escaping before." She looked at him, her expression calm, but the aloofness in her eyes stung his heart. She said, "Shen Yi, I've never been a good person. I didn't get to where I am today by being soft-hearted. Yes, I'm capable, but there are so many capable people, why me specifically?"

It was a rare occasion for them to lay everything out in the open. Su Tang didn't even bother hiding the malice and killing intent in her eyes. It was so thick, like a deranged killer, completely different from her usual self.

This was another side of her, a side Shen Yi had never seen before. Yet, he didn't feel disgusted; instead, he felt heartache.

He remembered that Lin Yang was an orphan, with no parents. Reaching where she was today must have been incredibly difficult. How wrong could she be? Such a young girl, if she didn't learn to protect herself in this seemingly sunny, yet actually cannibalistic world, she wouldn't have survived to adulthood. Even so, she hadn't extinguished her kindness. She learned to disguise herself, presenting a cold exterior, simply to avoid being hurt again.

His little girl was so good. If she was wrong, it was the world's fault.

As a former special forces soldier, he understood the darkness of this world all too well. He didn't even dare to ask what she had actually encountered. Her sniping was so accurate; had she also been shot at? With such a frail body, yet such remarkable skills, had she also been beaten bloody and unable to stand? Had she perhaps even experienced something similar to what he had endured in the lab?

Shen Yi couldn't bear to think about it any longer. He pulled her into his arms, his heart aching. Before, he had been angry that she was hiding something from him, but now he felt that, as long as she was by his side, what did a few secrets matter? Why did he have to repeatedly reopen her wounds?

"A-Yang, I'm sorry."

Su Tang inwardly breathed a sigh of relief. She had only given him a starting point; the rest was his own conjecture. It had nothing to do with her.

"I'm hungry."

Shen Yi responded, "I'll go make something to eat right away. What do you want to eat?"

The B-sector base was much larger than the previous small base, and there was a wide variety of goods available, so most of what Su Tang wanted to eat could be bought.

"You decide. I'm a little tired and want to sleep a bit more."

Shen Yi fell silent. He tucked her in, locked the door, and then left with peace of mind.

However, Su Tang didn't rest for long. As the initiator of this battle, although the fighting had stopped and they had won, there were still a lot of things to deal with. For example, how to manage the base, what to do with the mutants, the prisoners, and even the security group members who had switched sides to help them at the last minute. These matters all needed to be resolved quickly.

Su Tang looked at the people who came to find her, feeling a headache coming on. But Shen Yi didn't care about these things, or rather, he trusted her completely.

Su Tang thought, "I'm just a doctor, a civilian staff member who only knows how to research experimental subjects!"

The person in charge who came to find her smiled. "Dr. Lin, you're too modest. Earlier on the battlefield, your marksmanship was no less than a professional's."

Su Tang: "…"

She hadn't expected that her momentary indulgence in showing off her skills would be noticed by so many people.

The person in charge continued, "You see, those mutants only recognize you now. Their identities are special, and we don't know what to do."

Speaking of the mutants, the mutants they had encountered before had no memories, muddled and zombie-like. But this group was different. They had memories; they were living people, just wearing the masks of monsters.

Su Tang became interested in them. "First, arrange them in the research institute…" She spoke halfway, then suddenly stood up. "Forget it, I'll go talk to them myself. As for the base's operation, just continue as before. As for the remaining prisoners, lock them up for now." After she finished speaking, she hurried to the research institute. The main researchers had already been detained, and the remaining ones weren't a big problem, so they were kept for the time being.

As soon as she arrived at the institute, she had people bring all the mutants' information. She wasn't completely confident in treating them, so she held a meeting with them.

After all, it concerned the future of the mutants. Soon, all the mutants arrived. Before long, the originally spacious conference room became crowded. However, Su Tang wasn't impatient. Instead, she patiently explained, "I can try to restore your broken human DNA, but I can't guarantee the success rate."

The mutants were excited. Regardless of the success rate, at least she hadn't given up on them.

"Dr. Lin, we're neither human nor ghost in this state. It can't get any worse than this. Be bold. Even if it fails, it doesn't matter. We won't blame you."

For Lin Yang, compared to managing the base, she clearly preferred the research institute. Moreover, even without her, there were others who could handle these matters. But the mutants were different. She had asked the system, and their ultimate fate was death.

Su Tang began staying in the research institute day and night. Sometimes, when she made a breakthrough, she wouldn't even sleep. In the end, Shen Yi had to forcibly carry her away before she would reluctantly go to bed.

Three months later, she successfully separated the first person's genes from the mutant genes.

The animalistic features on the mutant began to gradually recede. For some irreversible areas, Su Tang even performed plastic surgery. In the end, if the person didn't say anything, no one would be able to tell that he had once been combined with frog genes.

The success of the first mutant caused a sensation throughout the base.

Then came the second, the third… Six months later, all the mutants had been successfully restored, and during this period, Su Tang had also developed a drug resistant to the zombie virus. Unlike the previous version, this batch of drugs wouldn't cause ability users to lose their abilities.

With the widespread distribution of the drug, the zombies around B-sector base were quickly eliminated. As for the remaining bases, they didn't need to deal with them. Under the effect of the drug's distribution, a large number of defectors appeared. In the end, the original security group was overthrown, and a new administrator took office.

Su Tang wasn't interested in these honors. She still stayed in the lab. Now that the zombies were gone, she began researching other things.

One day, Su Tang received a package. It was something that had been left behind from the A-sector laboratory. Because it was addressed to Dr. Lin Yang, it was sent to her. As for why it wasn't addressed to Su Tang, she was always in the lab, so everyone assumed that anything for her should go through Shen Yi.

Inside the package was a small safe. Shen Yi recognized this type of safe; it was extremely difficult to open. It had fingerprint verification. On a whim, he tried his own finger, and in the next second, he froze.

Inside was a tube of medicine. He didn't understand these things, so he had other people in the lab test it.

"Brother Shen, where did you get this medicine? Which unscrupulous manufacturer developed it? You mustn't give it to anyone. Although this thing can cure the zombie virus, the side effect is the loss of abilities."
