Chapter 786
"You're truly amazing." Stephanie smiled wryly, resting her forehead against Steven's. "Congratulations for reincarnating. You even got yourself a new body."
He was now whole.
Steven looked down at himself. "I still think my own body is the best. How about I die again and reincarnate into my own clone subject? I think Andy's brain neurons aren't as active as mine-they're not that smart."
Stephanie eyed him sideways and reached out to hit him again. He subconsciously covered his face and looked at her pitifully.
She raised her eyebrows and smiled. "Indeed, Andy's brain isn't as smart. You seem to be dumber now." Steven chuckled and cupped Stephanie's face before kissing her. "I'm a little afraid, Stephie."
"What are you afraid of?" She looked at Andy's password panel and reached out to key something in at random. Startled, Steven hurriedly pulled her into his embrace. "Don't scare me, Stephie!"
Stephanie chuckled before hugging his arm tight. She leaned against his shoulders and softly asked, "Have you guessed the password?"
Steven looked down at her and smiled indulgently. "Yes. Even though Andy isn't as smart as I am, I knew him well enough. It's not hard to guess his password."
Stephanie leaned against him and tightened her hold around him. "Steven"
"Yes?" Steven asked worriedly, "Are you feeling unwell?"
The Stephanie from his memory was indifferent and emotionless. She had a powerful presence and would kill decisively.
She shook her head. For some reason, she suddenly felt she could no longer be apart from him. "Hurry up and key in the password."
Steven nodded and stared at the panel somewhat nervously.
He hoped that he wouldn't have to die as soon as he got reincarnated. He would feel so wronged if that was the case.
Steven regretted not dragging things out for a few days more, but he was impatient to meet Stephanie again. He was afraid that she might have a hard time staying in that container.
He was left without any choice as he keyed in the password with gritted teeth.
Steven hesitated to key in the last digit as the countdown began.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
"What are you afraid of?" Stephanie intertwined their fingers tight.
Steven glanced at her and keyed in the last digit-7-at the very last second.
The keypad lock opened.
Outside the hatch, the mercenary leader sighed in relief when he heard the sound indicating that the hatch was opening.
In reality, none of them was sure of the reincarnation. All of them were done for if the person who reincarnated was not Andy and the person keyed in the wrong password.
They could finally relax now. After all, they were in it for the money. It didn't matter to them who it was as long as they stayed alive.
Once the hatch was opened, Stephanie and Steven exchanged a relieved glance.
She looked down at his trembling hands. "Are you that afraid, you loser?"
"You were afraid too, Stephie," Steven said daringly. "You hurt me from how you were holding my hand so tightly.
Stephanie burst out laughing. "Is it embarrassing to fear death?"
She used to think it was embarrassing to fear death, but she no longer had that thought. Both Steven and her had someone they cared for, so it was natural and not embarrassing for them to fear death.
Stephanie and Steven were stunned in place as they stepped into the hatch. The entire lower deck was filled with many lab capsules, each housing several clone subjects.
Other than that, there was a relatively luxurious lab capsule right in the middle, which housed someone who looked exactly like Steven's previous self.
Stephanie instinctively thought that this person was Steven's twin.
Back then, Genome Society had presented Andy with Steven. There was another identical twin brother of his as well.
He was sitting in the lab capsule, looking up at both of them.
After a moment, he smiled and said, "We finally meet."
