简介：Bipedalism, or "two-footed walking," is a story about a painter growing up in an orphanage and discovering the circumstances surrounding his father's disappearance and death.

Studying the archive material, he unexpectedly finds evidence of efforts to renew the experiments on the remaining hybrid population. The painter then becomes a researcher, and consequently a victim.
