rescue

“Ahem…”

A strong smell of blood diffused at the door. After Wei Shao confirmed the identity of the bloody lump with the system, he hurriedly dragged him into the house.

Philo glanced at Wei Shao who showed no hesitation, and hesitated to speak, but finally helped him.

Wei Shao took out the medicine and bandage tools he had prepared early in the morning, and then quietly sent Fei Luo: "Luo Luo, go boil some hot water."

Philo pursed his lips, glanced at the dying female soldier on the ground, and did as he was told in silence.

Wei Shao did not bandage Otto immediately, but first took tools to clean up the bloodstains outside.

He even redirected the trace in the opposite direction.

Although the plot is solid and there is a high probability that nothing will go wrong, it is still better to be cautious.

When they returned to their residence, Fei Luo was staring blankly at a pot of boiling water. Wei Shao put down his tools, walked over and rubbed his head: "What are you thinking about? Go sit over there."

Wei Shao didn't let him do it. He put on sterile gloves and slowly peeled off Otto's tattered military uniform, revealing shocking flesh and blood.

The smell was not pleasant at all. Wei Shao had always been injured in fights before and had to go to the hospital three times a month, but it had never been this serious.

Only a female soldier could have such a strong vitality. If this level of injury were to happen in Wei Shao's world, it would probably be...

Wei Shao held his breath, suppressed the visual and psychological impact as much as possible, and treated Otto's wounds.

A soft handkerchief suddenly touched his forehead. Wei Shao didn't even raise his head, but said distractedly: "Thank you, Luo Luo."

So he didn't notice that Philo's lips were lowered even lower.

After wiping the sweat off his forehead, Philo silently walked to the simple kitchen table and took out the food package he had bought at the grocery market.

He had been with Wei Shao for such a long time that he had more or less figured out Wei Shao's taste, and he quickly cooked two dishes that Wei Shao would like.

He washed his hands, took the medicine from Wei Shao, and said softly, "Let me do it, you go eat."

Wei Shao didn't even raise his head. He followed the system's instructions and cleaned the bullet holes on Otto's body step by step: "No, you eat. I'm not hungry."

Philo lowered his eyes and stared at the top of his head for a while, then suddenly asked, "Is this also the insect that 'that thing' entrusted you to take care of?"

Wei Shao was stunned for a moment, and finally slowed down his movements. He looked up at Fei Luo and said, "Why do you ask this suddenly?"

Philo had already turned around and put the steaming food on the table: "Nothing."

Wei Shao looked at his back and moved his lips. After being stopped by the system, he had to lower his head and continue cleaning Otto's wound.

The busy work lasted until the afternoon. Wei Shao found a clean board, placed it on the open space in the cave, spread clean bedding, and put the unconscious Otto on it.

The food on the table had gone cold and the food in the pot was untouched.

Wei Shao could probably guess why Fei Luo was unhappy, so he moved closer to Fei Luo, bent over and called out, "Lolo?"

Philo made no reply.

Wei Shao squeezed in and sat down beside him: "I'm hungry."

Philo's eyelashes moved: "I'll go and heat it up for you."

Wei Shao stretched out his hand to press against the stone wall, and Fei Luo was trapped in this small space and could not get out.

Philo raised his eyes and gave him a questioning look.

Wei Shao turned his head and glanced at the unconscious Otto. After confirming that this key character would not suddenly wake up, he whispered in Philo's ear: "Of course it's different."

Fei Luo's eyelashes moved, and he looked at Wei Shao's dark pupils and asked, "What's different?"

Wei Shao said seriously: "He is with you. You are my brother, and I just picked him up and saved him."

Philo asked, "Do you save anyone you see in danger?"

Wei Shao: "Of course not, I saved him because...well, I wanted to find you a foster father."

Philo: “?”

Wei Shao knew that even without him, Philo would still rescue Otto and bring him home. He asked this only because he felt uncomfortable.

So he deliberately said mysteriously: "Look at the clothes he is wearing, that is a military uniform. You saved him and acknowledged him as your godfather. He will protect you in the future."

Philo turned his face away: "I don't want it."

Wei Shao nodded: "Then I will admit it first. Anyway, you are my brother, so my admission is equivalent to your admission."

Philo: “…”

How on earth did Wei Shao manage to speak nonsense so seriously?

However, after Wei Shao said this, the subtle unhappiness in his heart really disappeared completely.

Seeing Wei Shao was about to eat the bowl of cold food, Fei Luo frowned, snatched it away, and poured it into the pot to heat it up again.

He said unhappily while feeling hot: "Don't eat cold food. It will hurt if you eat it."

Wei Shao joked happily: "You are so considerate, Luo Luo. Whoever marries you in the future will be so lucky."

Fei Luo paused and said hesitantly: "Marry?"

Wei Shao was also stunned.

Fortunately, Philo didn't think too much about it. Although Wei Shao could communicate with him in insect language on a daily basis, it was normal for him to make jokes occasionally because he was not a local insect.

He corrected casually: "I am a female insect. If it is another insect as the subject, it should be said that he 'married' me. If it is me as the subject, it should be that I 'married' him. Brother, you got it mixed up."

Wei Shao's fingertips froze slightly: "Ah...oh."

System: [Hold your surprise, have you forgotten that this is a BL novel? 】

Wei Shao: [……]

Thanks, I forgot.

This was all thanks to the system. He hadn't seen any plot related to "Zerg" since his third time traveling through time. Occasionally, when he chatted with the system about the cub, it was about how powerful Philo would be in the future. After a long time, he almost forgot that this was a romance novel.

Oh my god, which dead pig will eat his cabbage in the future?

The system said indifferently: [Please do not insult the male protagonist. 】

Wei Shao gritted his teeth and said: [No, that Yi, is he really reliable? 】

System: [They are destined to be a couple. Also, why are you asking so many questions? You are leaving soon. 】

It was a heart-wrenching blow.

Wei Shao stared at his little Baicai's graceful back with a stern face, and couldn't help but say, "Lolo, let me tell you something."

Fei Luo had just heated up the food and put it into Wei Shao's hands: "Well, you say."

The system said alertly: [What nonsense are you going to say to him? 】

Wei Shao looked at Fei Luo who was eating slowly, and said seriously: [Don't feel embarrassed, brother is telling you seriously, when you grow up, you must not be too casual when choosing a marriage partner. 】

The system screamed: [Wei Shao! ! ! How old is he? ! ! 】

Wei Shao: [You know shit. It’s feudal parents like you who are likely to raise children who grow up to be wronged in their marriages. 】

System: [It sounds like you understand it very well! Insidious human beings! You are not allowed to teach the male lead a bad lesson! ! ! 】

Wei Shao ignored him and looked at the confused Philo: [Choose someone who knows how to respect you, is loyal to you, and cares about you. 】

The system is going crazy.

Fei Luo swallowed the food in his mouth without any embarrassment. He said calmly: "But there are not many male insects on the abandoned planet. If we want to find a male insect that can be appeased for a long time before the violent period, it seems that we can only..."

You can only enter the base, or leave the abandoned planet and find another way out.

The system heaved a sigh of relief, and then turned to laugh at Wei Shao: [See, arrogant human, your tricks are totally ineffective against insects. 】

It places special emphasis on the word "human".

Wei Shao denied it: "When there is no choice, live first, but if you have the opportunity to choose in the future, choose what you like and what is good in all aspects."

Philo nodded, not quite understanding: "Oh."

He suddenly thought of something: "By the way, brother, how long will your violent period last?"

In fact, he was in a hurry to enter the base for this reason.

Wei Shao has neither insect wings nor insect claws, so he is undoubtedly a sub-female. Sub-females have weak combat capabilities and are the group with the lowest survival rate on the abandoned star.

But later I learned that Wei Shao’s hometown was not here...so there was no need to worry about it.

Philo thought he had guessed everything, but he never imagined that there were non-insects in the world.

Wei Shao's expression froze, and he said guiltily under the system's secret prompt: "It's still early..."

Philo nodded, the sub-female's violent period would come later.

After dinner, Wei Shao cleared the dishes, and Fei Luo followed him around, but Wei Shao didn't find him annoying.

So Philo hesitated for a moment, and finally asked the question that had puzzled him for a long time: "Brother, how old are you this year?"

Wei Shao: “…”

"this……"

Seeing him hesitating, Philo's eyes became a little sad: "Can't you even tell me this?"

Wei Shao lied guiltily and added a few years to his age: "Almost nineteen..."

Between thirteen and sixteen, and between sixteen and nineteen, the latter seems to have a smaller change.

Upon hearing this, Fei Luo frowned and carefully recalled how Wei Shao looked three years ago and compared him with how he looks now.

It really hasn't changed at all.

Wei Shao was frightened by his stare and coughed lightly: "What's wrong..."

Philo shook his head: "Nothing, it's really well maintained."

Wei Shao: “…”

If the system could discharge electricity, Wei Shao would have been electrocuted to death by now.

It said angrily: [Why do you have to answer him? ! Can't you just play deaf and dumb! 】

Wei Shao said confidently: [How can you be so cruel? Didn’t you see that he was very sad just now? 】

【You@#￥! ……】

-

In the second half of the night, Wei Shao was gently awakened by Fei Luo.

As soon as he opened his eyes, Philo covered his mouth. He woke up instantly and tacitly slowed down his breathing.

There was a light rustling sound in the darkness, followed by the sound of a quilt being lifted.

Philo's hand was still tightly holding his arm, so he could clearly sense Philo's nervousness.

This tension reached its peak when the female soldier who was sleeping on the ground got up and stood quietly beside their bed.

Wei Shao was not too afraid, after all, he knew the plot, but Philo was different.

So he slowly turned over and calmly blocked Philo behind him.

"Don't move!"

The cold metal pressed against Wei Shao's forehead, and a hoarse and alert voice sounded from above: "Who are you?"

In the silence, the hoarse voice continued to ask: "Who do you belong to? What is your purpose?"

Wei Shao held down Fei Luo, who was trying to block his way, with one hand, and turned on the bedside lamp with the other hand.

The small space suddenly became bright. Otto held the gun and looked at the two children in front of him in astonishment.

Although the younger one was protected behind, his eyes were filled with sharp hostility as he stared at the trigger in his hand.

The older man was pointed at by him with a gun, and he was obviously a little nervous, but his first words were -

"You crawled to our doorstep and now you're asking us what our purpose is. Are you kidding? You're just waving a gun around because you're a soldier. What if you scare the children?"

The tone was very annoyed.
