Chapter 33 has been reported; see you at the Public Security Bureau...

Hengxing separated the mattresses that had been stacked together, put one away, and placed the remaining two side by side, just like a few days ago.

After Yu Nianqing finished taking the inhibitors, their lives returned to normal.

She sat in front of the control panel studying all sorts of little gadgets, while he lay on the mattress behind her playing with the terminal or knitting.

Hengxing glanced back and only saw his back.

He lay on his side on the bed, his soft sweater clinging to his body under gravity, outlining the curves of his side. A light blue anti-spill patch could be faintly seen above the collar.

She felt like everything had returned to normal, but something felt different; some things seemed to have changed subtly, though she couldn't quite put her finger on what they were.

For example, she sensed that Yu Nianqing's mood was inexplicably depressed.

But upon closer observation, his behavior was no different from before.

Heng Xing turned around and continued texting Professor Wen.

In the text message, Professor Wen said that her annual leave ended at the end of January and asked Hengxing to come to the hospital to see her again in early February for a full check-up.

Hengxing replied with a thank you to express his gratitude.

It's January 10th now, and there's still a short but not too long time until early February.

She rested her chin on her hand, pondering whether she should buy some gifts to take with her.

"Captain Heng, the Empire has a way to deal with the planetary explosion incident."

Yu Nianqing sat up and moved from one end of the mattress to the other.

As Hengxing watched him get closer and closer, she subconsciously reached out her hands.

He placed the terminal in her hand and asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Heng Xing awkwardly withdrew his hand, picked up the terminal, and said, "My hand is a little sore, let me relax for a bit."

Seeing Yu Nianqing crawling on her knees in front of her, she subconsciously assumed that the other person wanted her to hug her again.

Terrible muscle memory.

"Breaking news: Si Yun will be taking researchers from the research institute and the latest equipment to conduct another inspection of the surrounding planets?" Heng Xing murmured.

Yu Nianqing: "Marshal Si, we don't need to worry about the rest. Captain Heng, you don't need to worry about this anymore."

In the past two days, he has frequently seen Hengxing searching for news about the aftermath of the planetary explosion.

Heng Xing chuckled dryly twice. "Indeed."

But, didn't Si Yun die a long time ago?

Is Si Yun, who is about to depart in a few days, a new substitute, or is she not dead at all?

If it's the former, the Si family is far too audacious.

She sensed a hint of being fooled by the latter's words. Was she forced to take her place due to circumstances, or was it preordained?

"Captain Heng, everything's alright now." Yu Nianqing noticed that her mood was a bit off and gently reminded her.

The minty scent lingering around her nose pulled her back to a safe zone.

Heng Xing adjusted his expression and nodded, "Yes, I know."

"I'm just wondering, didn't we check before? Why did we still find hidden insect beasts?"

Yu Nianqing listened to her doubts and said, "Maybe the equipment wasn't good enough before."

It's also possible that the previous inspections were just for show, but he trusts Si Yun's character.

Probably not.

Hengxing lost her memory and naturally didn't know what she had been examined for, but she vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

The terminal in her hand suddenly started vibrating.

"Captain Heng, is your terminal ringing?"

"Um."

It was an unfamiliar number. I was about to hang up, but there was a small sign in the upper right corner that read "Haiqinxing Public Security Bureau," and a reminder below the number: "You are responsible for the consequences of not answering."

Hengxing: ?

She answered the call, "Hello."

"Hello, are you the pilot of spaceship number 13 in Port Sector 4?"

Hengxing: "Yes, is there something you need?"

"What's wrong?"

Seeing her brows furrowing more and more, Yu Nianqing couldn't wait to ask as soon as she hung up the phone.

"Someone reported me for using pheromones in public, and the police told me to go to the police station to deal with it," Heng Xing said. "It was probably that food delivery guy who reported me a few days ago."

She was in a bad mood because the police told her she might have to pay a fine, which felt like a huge loss.

She stood up, straightened her collar, and prepared to head to the police station. "Mr. Yu, I should be back soon."

Yu Nianqing stood up and said, "I'll go with you."

"Your body isn't feeling well," Hengxing said, disapproving of his behavior.

"I've taken the suppressant and used the anti-leakage patch, so don't worry, nothing will happen. If it weren't for my pheromone leakage, you wouldn't have used pheromones, and you wouldn't have been reported." Yu Nianqing got up, preparing to go back to her room to change her clothes.

He looked down at the ground, looking pitiful. "Captain Heng, I don't want to be alone in the spaceship."

He believes he bears the primary responsibility for this matter.

If he hadn't insisted on going to pick up the takeout with Captain Heng, his pheromones wouldn't have affected Takeout A, Captain Heng wouldn't have used his pheromones to intimidate people, and he wouldn't have been reported and fined.

After realizing that she didn't have any romantic feelings for him, he was constantly in a state of anxiety and uncertainty. He wanted to chat with her, but he was afraid that he would talk too much and annoy her.

He was worried that Captain Heng would blame him, so he decided to go to the police station with her and pay the fine for her.

Hengxing couldn't persuade him otherwise. "Fine, make sure the anti-overflow tape is on tighter. I'm afraid we'll end up being locked up in the police station."

The Empire advises Omegas in heat and Alphas in their most vulnerable period to stay home and rest as much as possible. Releasing their pheromones in public and being reported will result in fines or even months of detention by the police.

Therefore, some lower-level AOs are unable to control their pheromones well and will choose to wear suppression rings when going out.

The function of the anti-spill ring is the same as that of the anti-spill patch. The difference is that it can be reused and is cost-effective, but the effect is not as good as the anti-spill patch. It is only suitable for daily wear.

She is of a high level and controls her pheromones very well. If there is a serious conflict between them, she prefers to subdue them with her fists rather than suppressing them with her pheromones.

This time she was too impatient. Seeing that the other party was aroused by Mr. Yu's overflowing pheromones, she felt a sudden surge of anger in her body. Without thinking, she released her pheromones and forced him to kneel on the ground.

She is not in the right in this matter.

While Yu Nianqing was getting ready, Heng Xing checked how to get to the Public Security Bureau.

After they finished packing, the two of them walked out of the spaceship together.

This small planet is also in winter, and the temperature has been dropping recently. As soon as they reached the ground of the port, the cold wind mixed with snow blew in their faces like knives.

She felt that her already dry face was getting worse and might crack.

In the early days of winter, when it first started snowing, she would excitedly roll around in the snowdrifts in front of her house during her free time after school. Her face would often crack from the cold, and then her father would grab her arm, press her down into a chair, and force her to apply moisturizer.

Hengxing still remembers that the moisturizing cream was a gift from her own saved allowance to him. It was very cheap and had a sweet, cloying fragrance, the kind of rose scent she hated.

no way.

She couldn't understand why the cheapest scent for all daily chemical products was rose.

Snowflakes drifted down and landed on her eyelashes, blurring her vision slightly.

Suddenly a scarf was wrapped around her neck, and she turned her head to look at Yu Nianqing in surprise.

He lowered his head and carefully adjusted her scarf. "Captain Heng, your face is all red from the cold. Aren't you uncomfortable?"

Yu Nianqing straightened the scarf around her neck to the same shape as herself, then withdrew her hand and admired it with satisfaction.

Hengxing looked down at the color of the scarf and remembered that he had knitted it a week ago.

Looking at the scarf around his neck, the bottom stitches were so bad that it looked like it was cut off from the rest of the scarf, with a gap as large as that between an Alpha and an Omega.

The ugly parts are her work.

"Put on another hat." Yu Nianqing magically produced two woolen hats, in the same color scheme as the scarf.

Heng Xing took the woolen hat and put it on his head. "Mr. Yu, thank you."

Yu Nianqing saw her pull the hat all the way down to cover her nose, like putting a watermelon on her head, and couldn't help but laugh, "That's not how you wear it."

I reached out and pulled her hat brim down to reveal her eyes and the little curly hair on the side of her face.

"Let's go, let's make an airplane,"

After tidying their clothes, the two headed towards the aircraft rental area.

Hengxing followed behind him as he bought things, and felt her face getting a little hot, so she reached up to cover it.

It was probably frozen.

Once on board, she proactively swiped her terminal to pay, then straightened her back and sat by the window, admiring the scenery outside while feeling quite pleased with her gentlemanly behavior.

Lost in the solemn snowy landscape, Hengxing missed the sad and disappointed look in the eyes of the Omega beside him.

After Yu Nianqing composed herself, Heng Xing withdrew her gaze from the window and began to ponder over the terminal.

Yu Nianqing: ...

Captain Heng, you truly live up to your reputation.

Author's Note: Regarding voluntarily paying money:

A stingy Alpha: (Proudly) I was really a gentleman today.

Omega in heat: (emo) Why are you so clear about this from me?
