Chapter 88 Screen

Ashley's pupils trembled slightly, and there seemed to be water shimmering in his red eyes.

His lips moved and finally pressed tightly into a line.

Lins waited for him quietly.

"I love you."

Ashley found the more precise word, his voice cracking as he answered.

"Ashley, no cheating."

Lins sighed and grabbed Ashley's face again.

"You want to hand in your paper after just three words?"

Ashley looked at Lins. Lins spoke for a long time, but he only said three words, which really shouldn't have happened.

He hesitated for a while and added a few more words.

"Anything."

He rested his cheek against Lins' palm and closed his eyes meekly.

"As long as it's you."

Lins scratched his hair: "Cheating is shameful."

Then he couldn't help but raise one corner of his mouth, and the dimple looked like a happy period.

"But the answer is correct, so this examiner can only let you go."

Ashley's eyes lit up again.

The two of them were affectionate for a moment, and then Lins stood up.

Some things still need to be resolved.

"Ashley, I had a long talk with Principal Bai today."

Ashley looked at him quietly, without any outstanding emotion.

"He wants me to help him complete one thing - go to Chepa Island and take out 'Shandi's' heart."

Principal Bai believes that the heart is the most active part of "Shandi". With the heart, he can transform stronger experimental subjects - like Ashley, a weapon that can break the upper limit of Zerg combat power.

Ashley was stunned for a moment, his red eyes looking blankly ahead, then turned to Lins' face after a moment.

"You know?"

Whether it is Chepa Island or 'Shandi', they are both keywords.

——Lins knew that he was a modified product.

"right."

Ashley didn't say anything else, he didn't even have any extra emotions.

Lins didn't detect any berry-like scent. Neither bitterness nor shock.

"Don't you have anything to say?" Linus restrained his desire to reach out and touch Ashley. He could secretly explore Ashley's inner thoughts, but this was not a long-term solution.

"Okay," Ashley replied.

He looked up at Lins, his face expressionless, with six red diagonal lines quietly dormant on his cheeks.

"What?" Lins frowned.

"I'll take you there."

Lins sneered.

Ashley must have known what going to Chepa Island meant, but he agreed to take Lins to the place he hated the most without asking any questions.

"You don't want to ask my purpose?" Lins raised the corners of his lips, with his sharp fangs clasped on his lower lip.

He is very unhappy now.

"Anything is fine." Ashley repeated what he had just said.

He meant what he said.

Anything is fine.

Whether it's to make him suffer, cry, or something else.

It will be all right.

His promises stand forever. He has given his all.

If he doesn't try to find out Lins's purpose, and doesn't think about why he approaches him, then will Lins...stay by his side?

"Anything?"

Lins laughed in anger. He hadn't been really angry for a long time. At this moment, the anger burning in his chest seemed to be igniting all his internal organs.

He reached out and grabbed Ashley's shoulders, pushing him back and lying on the sofa.

Ashley didn't resist.

He looked at Lins quietly.

A beast without claws is like a dog that has recognized its master.

"Ashley, what would you do if I had other intentions?"

Ashley didn't answer.

"If you believe me, why don't you ask me why?"

This is what really made Lins angry.

Ashley was a little confused.

“Same.”

No matter what Lins's reasons were, he would agree and take him to Chepa Island.

So why does he want to know the reason?

Lins was defeated by him.

His anger quickly deflated like a popped balloon.

“I really am…”

Ashley wasn't very emotional, and he had only a vague idea of why Lins was angry.

But at this moment, he seemed to suddenly understand.

Lins was worried about him.

Lins loved him.

These emotions are like crushed berries, the sour and sweet flavor cannot be hidden.

Lins and Ashley were very close, and all these joyful messages were conveyed to him.

He couldn't count how many times he sighed today. He released his hand that was pressing on Ashley's shoulders and lay back on the sofa: "Ashley, why are you such a love-brained person..."

Ashley sat beside him with her long legs curled up, pink bubbles still coming out of her body.

He loves me so much.

“…”

Lins was really speechless.

"Since you won't tell me, I'll tell you then," Lins said sternly. "An organization is secretly conducting experiments on insects. They need Sandy's genes, hoping to enhance their physical hardness or foresee the future."

"And you are their most successful masterpiece so far. You have broken through the shackles of S-rank and reached the S+ level."

"The Spider Clan is very likely the main member of this organization, because 'Shandi' is very similar to the Spider Clan's atavistic appearance. They believe it is a hint of the Insect God, and Principal Bai is a member or organizer of this organization."

And this organization is most likely the rebel army.

Lins speculated that in the original world, Dean Bai did not obtain Sandy's heart, or Sandy's heart did not bring the expected effect, otherwise he would not continue to inject drugs into Ashley, thereby deepening his atavism.

Between a controllable S+ female insect and a completely regressed star beast, of course the former is more valuable.

——Unless what he needs is the Star Beast itself.

He wants to extract Sandy's genes from the completely mutated Ashley.

Lins saw that Ashley's blinking speed became slower and he even slowly moved closer.

He raised an eyebrow.

"Ashley, aren't you surprised?"

Principal Bai’s disguise was very good. On the surface, he was very friendly to Ashley. Ashley’s return to school was inseparable from his support.

Ashley shook her head.

He raised his finger and pointed at the red mark on his face.

“Yes.”

"You've seen it?" Lins was really surprised. "Do you have the ability to foresee?"

Ashley shook her head again.

"Not foresight."

He organizes language.

“A lot of images.”

“Some are true, some are false.”

"rare."

Lins understood.

What Ashley saw might just be one of countless possible futures, and this ability cannot be controlled by himself and occurs very rarely.

He leaned closer to Ashley: "Have you seen me then?"

Ashley pursed her lips.

I want to play the fool and avoid this topic.

Lins' smile deepened: "Then I will tell you a secret too. I can hear your inner voice."

This was the third hint Lins gave after looking at the insect patterns and tentacles. If Ashley still couldn't guess that he was a male insect, it was not his fault.

He gave enough hints.

Ashley pursed her lips.

"Don't believe it?"

Lins became interested and reached out to touch Ashley's cheek.

【Tease me again.】

"Tease me again." Lins repeated.

Ashley looked at Lins, and the red marks on his face began to tremble slightly, as if they would open up at any moment.

But this emotion is easy to guess. Even if Lins doesn't have the ability to read minds, he can still tell from his expression.

Is it true?

"Really?"

[Then I'll be discovered spying on him with my other eyes.]

Lins burst out laughing: "Is it when we were taking a shower?"

[It really exists! ]

The red pupils trembled slightly twice, and after a moment, they reflected Lins's enlarged face.

Lins almost fell on top of Ashley.

"How do you peek? Learn from me." He reached out and touched the red mark on Ashley's face. The red mark was very smooth. His attention suddenly shifted. "Ashley, you only have eyelashes on your eyes."

“…”

Lins imagined the scene of all eyes having eyelashes, and burst into laughter, almost rolling off the sofa, but Ashley pulled him back in time.

It took him a long time to calm down, but the pain in his abdomen had not stopped yet, and he continued to bully the little spider.

"Tell me about my picture."

Ashley jumped up from the sofa nimbly, and when he landed, his eight legs stopped steadily on the wall.

He moves extremely fast and has great explosive power.

But the purpose is ridiculous.

——He wanted to climb out of the window.

Ashley didn't know the range of his mind reading ability, but running away was always the right thing to do. No matter how powerful Lins's mind reading ability was, he couldn't see through him from a distance!

Lins swung out spider silk and tightly wrapped it around Ashley's hind legs.

"Good senior, tell me about it."

He stretched out the ending of his tone, becoming pretentious and coquettish.

Ashley paused in her struggle, and Lins took advantage of the situation to step forward. He jumped up and sat on the windowsill with his back to the window.

"So Senior likes this title." He squinted his eyes and smiled, "Good Senior——"

He slowly tightened the spider silk.

The spider silk had not been strengthened, and Ashley could easily break it with just a little effort.

But he didn't.

He followed the spider silk and came to Lins.

The tall female insect stood in front of the window, almost at eye level with the seated Lins.

He slowly closed his eyes and resigned himself to describing the scene he had seen.

【Hold me.】

Lins followed his thoughts and put his arms around him.

Kiss me.

Lins placed a hot kiss on Ashley's trembling eyelids.

"Where did you kiss?"

【Eye. 】

Lips.

【Insect pattern.】

"All the insect patterns?"

Lins lowered his voice and asked softly.

His lips were so far away from Ashley's eyes that every word became a kiss.

Ashley shuddered violently, and once again he smelled the strong aroma of lemon and pink pepper.

The rum mixed in with it made him dizzy.

The insect pattern is on the lower back, which is a rather ambiguous place.

【yes. 】

Lins did as he was told.

"Anything else?"

This time it was Ashley's voice that spoke faster than her heart.

"there is none left."

【have. 】

Yet the same sound conveys completely opposite messages.

Lins chuckled.

He stood up and rubbed the little spider that was about to burn.

"I won't tease you anymore."

Ashley was clearly relieved, but his regret was even more evident. The pheromones in the air were almost as thick as syrup.

Lins cupped his face.

"Is there a prerequisite for foresight?" Lins asked. Hu Yi once said that when 'Shandi' activates the foresight ability, the other secondary eyes will also open.

So is Ashley too?

[When eyes are fully open, you can occasionally see it.]

When Ashley discovered that Lins could understand his thoughts, he became even more presumptuous and simply didn't say a word.

"When did you see it?"

【In the woods.】

"You mean the time when you were destined to be destroyed?"

Although it was a question, Lins knew in his heart that it was that time.

Ashley nodded.

Lins' heart felt a little sore, and he suddenly realized that he had misunderstood something in the past.

At that time, he thought that Ashley's words meant that his mental sea was in a very serious state of frenzy.

But no, what Ashley meant was:

I am destined to be with you.

Of the thousands of possible futures, Ashley chose the one with Lins.

Even if it means death.

Ashley didn't know that this body was a male insect...
