Chapter 54: There is no possibility of survival

When Chen Wei was caught by his nemesis for the first time, he felt a little guilty at first.

After all, it is not very decent to sneak into someone's ward in the middle of the night.

However, as soon as Jiang Yuan said this, the last bit of guilt in his heart disappeared.

Chen Wei forcefully broke free from Jiang Yuan's hand.

In the darkness, he whispered, "There's no need."

Jiang Yuan's hand was left hanging in the air, and he tried to grab Chen Wei, but Chen Wei moved away silently.

His fingers dangling in the air unconsciously curled up. Jiang Yuan said, "I'm already investigating what happened back then."

"Do you need to check more?"

Chen Wei found this a bit ridiculous. He asked, "Aren't you aware of what you've done?"

He caught a glimpse of the bite stopper on Jiang Yuan's face.

It hasn't been taken off yet.

Jiang Yuan didn't say anything. Chen Wei withdrew his gaze, thinking that he was silent because he had no excuse after being exposed by him.

Shen Wei thought that he had paid a heavy price for his past immaturity.

In the past, he was arrogant and didn't guard against others. He thought he could always suppress them, especially people like Jiang Yuan, which gave him the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

Jiang Yuan said softly, "I'm just worried... worried that you'll leave me. I'll explain this to you."

"Do you want to listen to what you're saying?"

Chen Wei sneered and said, "Do you think I'm some kind of object? Why do I have to be tied to you?"

The two of them had their positions reversed, with Chen Wei firmly in control. Jiang Yuan could only whisper, "I'm sorry."

Chen Wei didn't want to waste time talking to him. Every time he talked to Jiang Yuan, he always felt that he couldn't control his emotions.

In the dark environment, the sound of heavy breathing became heavier and heavier.

"I paid the price for my bad behavior in the past. What about you? Just an apology?"

Shen Wei sneered and walked out the door.

Jiang Yuan was still calling his name behind him, with a trembling tone at the end of his voice.

"Chen Wei."

Hearing Jiang Yuan's voice, Chen Wei inevitably paused, then gently lowered his shoulders, as if sighing silently.

He said, "Don't call me by my name."

Afterwards, Shen Wei left the ward without looking back.

As soon as he left the ward, he ran into the Omega from the afternoon. The other person looked a little surprised. He looked at the ward number and then at Shen Wei.

Chen Wei looked unhappy and his face was ashen. He forced a smile at the Omega and said nothing.

Seeing that Chen Wei showed no sign of speaking, Omega also remained silent and said, "Rest early. It will help the glands recover."

Shen Wei nodded and turned back to his own ward.

There was no sound in the darkness.

He lay back on the bed and cleared his mind.

He didn't sleep well again that night.

-

The next day, the doctor came to check on Shen's serious wound, and he would be discharged from the hospital in a few days.

Having a piece of flesh cut off from the back of the neck would make anyone feel uncomfortable, including Chen Wei. Due to the special location of the wound, he could only stay in the hospital for observation. Moreover, his job was special, so he had to be even more cautious and careful in treating the wound.

Chen Wei thought of Jiang Yuan, wondering if Jiang Yuan would lose control because of him.

As soon as this thought came out, Shen Wei smiled self-deprecatingly.

He thought, no matter what the reason was, this was what Jiang Yuan deserved.

Shen Wei's mood did not improve because of this.

He was lying on the hospital bed, watching the real-time information of the universe. It was his habit, but at this moment, Jiang Yuan's face appeared in his mind for no reason.

Shen Wei was a little upset, so he simply went downstairs for a walk.

He opened the door of the ward and when he passed by the door of Jiang Yuan's ward, he paused for a moment, then walked forward and took the elevator downstairs to take a walk.

Shen Wei kept up the habit of walking for several days.

Every time I pass by Jiang Yuan's door, I always look over there.

After these two days, Jiang Yuan still hasn't taken off the bite device, which means that Jiang Yuan's pheromones are still unstable. He has been tied to the hospital bed and cannot move. He looks extremely miserable and doesn't look like the archon at all.

When people are sick, they inevitably feel uncomfortable.

Chen Wei had also experienced pheromone out of control and felt very uncomfortable. Jiang Yuan’s current situation might be the same.

He stayed at the door of Jiang Yuan's ward for longer and longer periods of time.

There were not many visitors in Jiang Yuan's ward, as they all seemed to be busy with work.

Shen Wei thought that even if someone was arranged to take care of Jiang Yuan, he probably would not accept it because he did not like physical contact between strangers and him.

Therefore, Jiang Yuan looked extremely embarrassed and pitiful at this moment.

When Chen Wei lifted his foot, he felt as if it weighed a thousand pounds and he couldn't move.

Fortunately, Bai Xu would come to accompany Chen Wei after finishing his work every day, so Chen Wei would not be too bored and could divert his attention from Jiang Yuan.

Out of diplomatic etiquette, Bai Xu also went to inquire about Jiang Yuan's condition as usual.

Chen Wei would sometimes ask him about Jiang Yuan's situation, but Bai Xu was reluctant to talk about it.

He didn't ask any more questions.

But one day, Bai Xu suddenly said to him, "Jiang Yuan has been discharged from the hospital."

Shen Wei was reading a document at that time. Upon hearing this, he looked up and asked, "Discharged from the hospital?"

"Yes, he was still wearing a bite control device when he was discharged from the hospital."

Shen Wei asked, "Doesn't that mean he hasn't recovered yet? He was discharged from the hospital just like that?"

"It seems like he requested to be discharged himself, but I'm not sure about the details." Bai Xu didn't elaborate further and continued, "It's okay. You can be discharged in two days."

Whatever Bai Xu said later, Chen Wei seemed a little perfunctory.

He didn't understand why he had to be discharged from the hospital before he had fully recovered, and he had no way to find Jiang Yuan to ask.

It wasn't until dinner time that Shen Wei knew why Jiang Yuan wanted to be discharged from the hospital.

Jiang Yuan, wearing a black bite stopper and carrying a thermos bowl, appeared at Chen Wei's door.

He said nothing.

Shen Wei choked.

He could almost see the passing medical staff casting their eyes towards Jiang Yuan.

He was silent for a moment, then said, "What are you doing here?"

"I'll bring you food."

Sometimes Chen Wei couldn't understand Jiang Yuan. He had already made it very clear that he didn't need Jiang Yuan to get close to him or do anything for him. Jiang Yuan had a stubbornness that was difficult for ordinary people to understand.

Chen Wei looked at his tall figure blocking the door, his face extremely pale, the bite stopper covering his bloodless face, his expression a little lonely, like a child who had done something wrong.

He stared at Jiang Yuan for a while, then said, "Come in."

Jiang Yuan came in from outside and placed the food on the head of Shen Wei's bed.

"I'll open it for you."

Shen Wei refused and said, "No, I've already eaten."

"good."

Jiang Yuan tried to show his goodwill in this way, but was rejected by Shen Wei.

I thought Jiang Yuan would give up, but he brought food for the next few days.

On time, no change.

What Chen Wei didn't see was that Jiang Yuan's hands were shaking more and more violently. He tried to restrain himself, but he seemed powerless in front of his out-of-control body.

Jiang Yuan put his trembling hands behind his back and talked to Shen Wei with his head down.

"I've checked, and these ingredients can help with the recovery of glandular wounds."

Shen Wei looked at the ingredients inside.

These are some supplements that are hard to obtain on the Evil Star. No one knows where Jiang Yuan got these supplements from.

Shen Wei had a headache.

He has always rejected Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan didn't listen.

Seeing Jiang Yuan wearing a bite stopper, Shen Wei did not take any action.

So he applied for early discharge.

On the day of discharge, Jiang Yuan also came and brought food.

Shen Wei now has almost everything he needs. Anything Jiang Yuan prepares may be insignificant to Shen Wei. He can only have some extremely brief contact with Shen Wei every day by delivering meals.

Jiang Yuan realized through the incident of Chen Wei washing his mark that he no longer had any capital to forcefully keep Chen Wei by his side.

The more he treated Shen Wei the same way he used to, the further Shen Wei would go away from him.

Jiang Yuan has now completely lost the initiative.

Chen Wei didn't know what Jiang Yuan was thinking, he just felt distressed.

He shouldn't have too much interaction with Jiang Yuan now. He thought about making Jiang Yuan pay the price, but due to work reasons, he couldn't do it now, and there was no way to make Jiang Yuan pay any price.

Chen Wei felt that he had been influenced too much by Jiang Yuan in recent times.

Getting along with Jiang Yuan is even more tiring than going on a mission.

After being discharged from the hospital, Shen Wei returned to his dormitory and began training in small steps.

He tried to force himself to forget Jiang Yuan again by using the same method he used in previous years.

But I still think of it.

A few years ago, when he thought of Jiang Yuan, he could still use the excuse that he was affected by the mark. Now that the mark has been cleared, he still thinks of Jiang Yuan, and now he can't find any excuse.

This problem was finally resolved when Jiang Yuan and his group left.

I heard that Jiang Yuan fainted, and he fainted near the residential area of ​​the base, downstairs of a dormitory building. He was found by a patrolling station staff, who notified the hospital and took him away.

Later, Jiang Yuan's direct leader directly asked Jiang Yuan's team to return to the planet as soon as possible, and everyone hurriedly prepared to leave.

This matter attracted the attention of Jiang Yuan's superiors.

It also caused concern among Shen Wei's superiors.

Jiang Yuan's physical condition and the stability of his pheromones clearly make him unsuitable for staying on this planet.

They all came to the planet of Erhai by accident. After so many days, the two planets have reached a consensus on cooperation and the mission has been completed. Logically speaking, Jiang Yuan and his companions should return to their original planet to report, but Jiang Yuan's loss of control made them stay for a while.

It is said that Jiang Yuan insisted on being discharged from the hospital even though his condition was not stable at the time, and no one knew what he was going to do.

After a few days, Jiang Yuan's condition got out of control and he finally fainted.

Shen Wei was silent. He recalled the few days after Jiang Yuan was discharged from the hospital and how he had always stayed by his side.

He would deliver food to me, and after that, he would stay in a corner where I couldn't see him, watching me secretly.

Over the years, Chen Wei could almost sense Jiang Yuan's presence.

Because that familiar sense of danger was haunting him, but Jiang Yuan didn't do anything excessive.

He didn't hide very well, and Shen Wei always found him.

But Jiang Yuan did not affect him. He seemed to have adapted to this kind of surveillance because he knew that Jiang Yuan could not do anything to him now.

Chen Wei suddenly realized that he had already adapted to this distorted vision.

He himself didn't expect it.

Chen Wei looked at the distant sky, which was the direction of the jump.

Separation was inevitable, but I didn't expect that so much time had passed since we reunited.

And...this time it was another sudden separation.

When Chen Wei heard the news that Jiang Yuan had left, he didn't say anything.

He did not ask about Jiang Yuan's physical condition, nor did he ask whether they would come back.

Perhaps due to official duties, Jiang Yuan will not come to Erhai Star again.

Chen Wei felt that he should be happy. After all, Jiang Yuan was not only injured, but he also had one less harasser.

But he couldn't be happy no matter what.

He knew nothing about Jiang Yuan's final situation.

When Shen Wei got the news, it was too late.

Perhaps at this time, Jiang Yuan and his group have already started the jump. It won’t be long before Jiang Yuan will return to his original planet, recuperate, and then start working again.

There feels like a void in my heart.

Shen Wei was absent-minded during training today, and he didn't stop until the back of his neck started to hurt.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and took the vibrating communicator panting.

The superior's voice came from inside.

Shen Wei said, "I understand. I'll come over now."

Shen Wei changed his clothes and rushed to his superior's office.

A few minutes later, he knocked on his superior's office door.

After getting the consent, Shen Wei entered.

As soon as I sat down, I noticed that my superior looked unhappy.

The superior hesitated and said, "You're still on leave and haven't fully recovered yet. Logically, I shouldn't call you, but there's really no one else available right now, so I have no choice but to ask you to come."

He laid the groundwork for a long time, and Shen Wei knew that he was about to go on a mission. He said, "I understand. I will obey your management."

After getting Chen Wei's attitude, the superior continued, "Jiang Yuan and his team were attacked by space pirates during the jump."

"Now their whereabouts, whether they are alive or dead, are unknown."

With a "bang", Shen Wei could only see his superior's mouth opening and closing. The outside sounds suddenly became blurred. The huge tinnitus made Shen Wei's body unstable. He reached out and pressed behind his ears, trying to relieve the pain.

The noise was gathered and forced into Shen Wei's ears.

There is almost no chance of survival when attacked by space pirates!

What's more, it was during the jump! Jiang Yuan's physical condition hadn't stabilized yet, so jumping was a bit strenuous, not to mention being attacked.

Even if you survive the attack, being lost in space is a terrifying thing.

Jiang Yuan and the others are in a very dangerous situation now!

With so many years of mission experience, Chen Wei made this judgment almost immediately.

"When did it happen?"

Shen Wei supported himself on the table with both hands.

He tried his best to shake off the discomfort.

The superior stood up, held Shen Wei's shoulders, and said, "According to speculation, it happened eight hours ago."

Shen Wei barely managed to control his composure, took a few deep breaths, and said, "Please continue."

"After comparing the information, it was the same group of pirates who escaped from our Star Prison who did it," the superior was also worried. "Now Jiang Yuan and the others are missing. This is very detrimental to the cooperation between the two planets. Whether they are dead or alive, we must find them and give an explanation to the other planet."

They need to take responsibility for the escape of the space pirates. What's even more unfortunate is that this group of space pirates did not restrain themselves at all and even provocatively attacked the people who jumped from the star of Erhai.

Chen Wei's fingertips turned white due to the force, and he was trying his best to ignore the information that "Jiang Yuan's whereabouts are unknown and he may be dead."

"Right now, there are no available people on the planet. I know it's inhumane, but—"

Shen Wei's voice was tense, and his entire neck and shoulders were very stiff. He rarely interrupted his superior, "I understand. I'll go."

The superior was still worried about Shen Wei's injury. He frowned and asked, "Just make the strategic decisions this time. Don't go to the front lines yourself."

Shen Wei didn't reply, but quickly sorted himself out and said, "I apply to depart immediately."

"Okay, I'll send you the coordinates of the accident via the intranet. Remember, the interests of the living are more important. You know what I'm saying. If you're not feeling well, don't force yourself."

"If anything goes wrong, report it immediately. I will request support from the Universal Peace Organization."

The reason why we don't seek help from external forces at this moment is that this matter is extremely disadvantageous to the Eresh Star, and Chen Wei understands the pros and cons.

No matter what happens to Jiang Yuan and the others, even if they are... corpses, they will bring them back.

Chen Wei left his superior's office, quickly changed into black combat uniform, and immediately notified Bai Xu to assemble the military personnel.

Ten minutes later, he led his men towards the coordinates of the accident.
