Chapter 60 is the second update that was dropped immediately!
The female came back very late that night.
Yael was holding the quilt and vaguely heard the sound of the door opening, but the light did not come on, and there was no other noise that would disturb his sleep.
Just when I was about to fall asleep again, the bed beside me seemed to sink very gently, and the light breath sprayed on the back of my neck, and a soothing warmth came from behind.
He muttered something, turned over and clung to the huge pillow that suddenly appeared like an octopus, and fell into a deep and sweet dream again.
The next morning.
With his eyes still closed, Yael subconsciously reached out and felt around a few times. The soft thing in his arms felt smooth and something seemed to be wrong.
He got up sleepily, pinched his brows to wake himself up, and then he found that there was the long puppy pillow in his arms, and the temperature on the other side of the quilt had cooled down.
The female has been gone for a long time.
It took Yael a few steps to reach the edge of the big bed. After taking the laptop from the bedside table, he found that it was only half past seven.
I went to bed early yesterday so I woke up early this morning, but Nishizawa was gone.
"It's so busy. I feel like I haven't slept for many hours the whole day."
He whispered, and for a moment he no longer had the urge to stay in bed, so he threw back the quilt and got out of bed.
After washing up, he took the elevator downstairs. The smell of food wafted along the corridor, and Yael followed the instructions of the rolling household machine to the restaurant.
The entire restaurant is bright and clean. The warm morning light penetrates through the glass. The breeze carries the fragrance of roses from the back garden, blowing the pure white curtains up and down, creating a sense of stability and tranquility.
Breakfast had been laid out on the long dining table, and no other insects were to be seen. Yael's eyes swept across the exquisite snacks and noticed a sticky note stuck on the plate.
【Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be prepared and delivered by the chef. You can just come down and eat when you are ready. If you want to eat anything, you can order it at any time. Remember to eat on time and keep a regular schedule.
——Xize】
The handwriting was so powerful that it penetrated the back of the paper. Yer stroked the smiling face and smiled silently.
He tried the extremely beautiful snacks and there was no special expression on his face.
It's delicious, but I always feel like something is missing.
It's not about taste or technique, maybe... it's because at this moment there is no other body temperature by my side, I can't hear the steady breathing in my ears, I can't see those smiling eyes.
Thus, the empty restaurant also seemed dreary, and the pure white curtain was like a bird flapping its wings about to fly, covering up a lonely shadow cast on the ground.
…
The following few days were a repetitive and monotonous life. Xi Ze basically went out early and came back late every day. We hardly saw each other. He was so busy that he had no time to rest.
Yael guessed that if he had not been at home, the female insect might not have come back in the middle of the night to sleep with him in her arms for two or three hours, but would have just lay down in the office with her clothes on for a while and then continued to work.
He had suggested that the female insects take care to rest and not exhaust their bodies through work, but he also knew that there was nothing that could be done.
The series of events involved in the return, as well as the five years of complete absence, require the female insect to take control of the situation and supplement her learning as quickly as possible, so that she can smoothly consolidate her position.
One day at five in the morning.
Yael woke up from his dream and was embraced in a cold embrace. The female insect might have just returned from outside. Even after taking off her military jacket, the shirt underneath still retained the scent of ice and snow.
Caesar patted his back with one hand, perhaps sensing that he was not asleep, he lowered his head and rubbed his neck. His low, hoarse voice was filled with apology, flowing softly in the gloomy night.
"I'm sorry, Lord Xiong. Once we get through this period, I won't be so busy anymore. I'll accompany you to have a good rest then."
Yael said nothing, but released soothing pheromones, which gradually seeped into the female insect's body, trying to relieve his fatigue.
"You can plan where you want to go in the next few days. I'll go with you when I'm free. There are many beautiful planets there. I think you will like them very much."
Yael was now completely awake. He pulled the hand from his back and hugged the female insect in his arms, then glared at her in the dark.
"If you really have a holiday, why don't you just stay home and sleep for two or three days? Why are you wasting time?"
He remembered that he had been too busy recently and had not provided spiritual counseling to the female insect for a long time, so he sat up and turned on the warm light at the bedside.
"I'll give you some counseling now while I still have time, because you'll be gone again later."
The warm yellow light shining on the female insect made her look tired and relaxed. Her golden eyes, which should have been sharp and cold, were now staring at her with a gentle smile.
"Okay, thank you, Lord."
Yael sighed, extended two mental tentacles from his forehead, held the female insect's cheeks with both hands, and squeezed them hard.
“Focus.”
During the secondary differentiation, I had already stepped on the accelerator to the bottom. I had done everything I should and shouldn't have done several times. Now there are no taboos.
But tonight is not a good opportunity, so we can only hug each other and rub against each other, closing our eyes and taking a rest in the afterglow of pleasure.
Yelben thought that he would have to live like this for several dozen days until the situation was completely stabilized.
But the invitation letter received on the computer the next day caused ripples in this stagnant water.
【To “wwn” students:
Hello!
Time flies, and the years pass by like a shuttle. Exxon First Research Institute has gone through three hundred years of ups and downs, and three hundred years of great changes... (Two hundred words omitted here)
We plan to hold a grand celebration on January 28, 9038 in the lunar calendar year to commemorate the 300th anniversary of the founding of the school. We sincerely invite you to...
Norman Ledecker, President of Exxon First Research Institute, cordially invites you to attend the seminar.
Yael read the invitation letter quickly. He was specially invited to attend as a nominal student, and the time was tomorrow morning.
Even if he likes quietness, he still needs a certain amount of social interaction. He has been staying at home so long that he is almost growing mushrooms.
The school anniversary looks lively and fun - I'm a little excited.
After hesitating for a while, Yael sent a screenshot of the email to Cize.
【wwn: Can I go out tomorrow? 】
[wwn: There has been no news about S-class male insects on the Star Network during this period, and no photos of me have been circulated. It seems that the news has been kept secret! I should not be assassinated (soybean haha)]
The top of the message box displayed "Message is being entered", and the line of words was written and paused for a minute, but the female insect still did not send a message.
Is it still not working?
Yael felt helpless, but he also understood the seriousness of the situation. Although he couldn't help much, at least he could stay in the protection circle and not cause more trouble.
He was about to reply that it was okay not to go when the female insect sent him a message.
[Xize: I just lifted the first level alert for you. You can go wherever you want, it's okay.]
[Xize: By the way, when you go out tomorrow, take down the star inlaid on the door of the villa and carry it with you. It can protect your safety if anything happens.]
[Xize: I have to work overtime tonight and may not be able to go home. My lord, you don’t have to wait for me. Go to bed early (kiss) (stick)]
Yael raised his eyebrows slightly, carefully selected one from among many emoticons and sent it to him, enriching Da Guban's reserve of emoticons.
The next second, there were indeed two identical kisses in the message box, placed side by side.
…
"Goodbye, have a safe journey~"
After waving goodbye to 015 at the door, Yael searched with his eyes and saw a metal star in the corner. It had a very precise structure and was only half the size of a palm.
He casually put the stars in his pocket, not noticing that as he walked further and further away, the protective shield covering the outside of the villa was gradually pulled and gradually shifted from its original position.
When it reached the critical point, it left the area with a "pop" like a bubble, and very intelligently and quickly shrank in size, covering the special suspension car that was carrying Yel.
[Xize: Have you set out yet? If it's not too much trouble, could you take some photos and share them with me? ]
【wwn: On the way, are you on a business trip today? 】
【wwn: I'll take photos for you when the time comes. It's okay if you don't have to reply right away. Just go do your own thing. 】
【Xize: A big kiss.jpg】
Seeing the emoticons sent by the female insect, Yael couldn't help but chuckle, but there was still no change on his face.
He is quite good at learning from others' mistakes. Although he is a veteran cadre, he seems to accept these things in a positive way.
At this time, the suspended car slowly stopped and the child lock on the door opened automatically.
"——We have arrived at our destination."
…
"Report! The first wave of beasts is approaching a thousand-meter radius. The Second Army has already assembled for battle. Is the First Army ready to fight? Please give me your instructions, General!"
After Bai Lang finished reporting the situation, he looked at the admiral standing in front of the command desk, confused for a moment.
Aren't they just a few waves of beasts? Is it worth it for the admiral to personally take command?
They have wiped out the beast tides at least 700 to 800 times, if not a thousand times. From the tragic beginning to the subsequent insect-free casualties, and even starting to break the fastest eradication record, there is nothing to be nervous about.
Wait, it seems like the admiral is not watching the battle situation, but is... picking cute emoticons?
Bai Lang's pupils shrank and he was shocked for a moment.
He has a private hobby of surfing the Internet, which is much more trendy than other military girls, but no one has discovered it.
According to his understanding, the soldiers and females of the First Army have different personalities. They can be divided into five levels from high to low and from low to high according to their trendiness, which will change with the speed of technological and star network upgrades.
The admiral has been at the top of the pyramid for so many years and has never moved. He is recognized in the military as a serious and old-fashioned man. Apart from leading troops in battle, all he thinks about is work and tactical training.
But now! I am focusing on selecting cute emojis! The kiss series!
白朗膽大包天地偷瞄了一眼，果然上将是在和耶爾冕下發消息，下一秒看清了具體內容，又無聲吸了口氣。
出去了還要随時分享照片，這麽黏糊的嗎？果然是他們這些單身蟲不懂了。
“白朗。”
一道冷淡的聲音從身前傳來，白副官渾身一抖，以為自己出格的行為被發現了，瞬間立正道，“是！請上将指示！”
但實際上西澤沒空管他，點開雄蟲發來的學校門口的照片，細細端詳了一番後在角落找到了拍攝者的影子，頓時心滿意足地點了保存。
随即又有些煩擾地皺起眉，下意識詢問副官道，“你說我要不要也發幾張照片過去，不然感覺會顯得很冷漠。”
白朗嘴角抽搐，面對議會那群老家夥的長篇大論，只回一個“嗯”或者幹脆一點頭的時候，您怎麽沒考慮到顯得冷漠這個問題呢？
等等……上将剛才說什麽來着？
照片？現在嗎？這裏嗎？！！
考慮到上将戀愛關系的健康發展，白朗立刻出聲勸道，語氣委婉而恨鐵不成鋼。
“如果是關于戰場上肢體和碎肉橫飛、異獸哀嚎的照片，您最好還是不要發給冕下了，這些連媒體報道時都會打層層馬賽克的。”
“說的也是……準備作戰，争取下午前搞定。”
西澤收起光腦，瞥了一眼遠處隐約湧動的異獸潮，神情平淡地下指令道。
“是！”
*
昨天發完消息後，西澤還叫蟲送了個僞裝器過來，在不改變樣貌的情況下掩蓋掉雄蟲的氣息，僞裝成一個漂亮的青年亞雌。
耶爾從車上下來，撲面而來就是耀眼的陽光，還有周遭嘈雜的蟲聲，到處散發着青春的氣息。
為了舉辦校慶，眼前的大學到處拉起鮮紅的橫幅和小彩旗，顯得熱鬧無比，甚至連綠蔭如雲的樹上也別着長長的流蘇，喜慶而熱鬧。
“好眼熟的裝扮，果然全世界的校慶都一個樣子。”
将手裏的邀請函遞給門衛，耶爾直接走進了這所帝國高等學府，完全沒注意到自己在門口停留的那幾分鐘，已經激起了小範圍的騷亂。
他原本只打算自己到處逛一逛，等會在學校吃個午飯，下午就回家的，但還沒走兩步，就有幾個帶着紅袖章的蟲猛沖了過來。
“您好！請留步！”
沖在最前面的蟲呲着大牙，看起來青澀而陽光，躍躍欲試的勁頭已經從眼睛裏亮了起來，“請問閣下是校友嗎？”
耶爾下意識後退了一步，眉心微蹙，“有什麽事嗎？”
“請問您是優秀校友嗎？”
他猜測自己可能看起來太年輕了，不像是有資格收到邀請函的優秀校友。
但又不确定對于挂名學生的特殊邀請有多少，為了避免掉馬，耶爾只能面帶歉意地笑了笑，胡謅了個理由。
“啊……我雌父是校友，但他今天沒空，由我代為參加。”
“原來如此！”
那年輕雌蟲卻沒有深究，只是灼灼地看着他。
“你好你好，第一次來這裏吧？我叫丹尼斯，可以申請成為你的指引者嗎？”
耶爾不太會拒絕散發着善意的熱情，遲疑了一下後點點頭，“好……”
有志願者也好，先熟悉一下地圖再逛逛，半小時後再各自告別吧。
丹尼斯嘿嘿了一聲，在一衆羨慕嫉妒的眼神中，将這個好看得過分的亞雌領走了。
“那我們開始吧！你叫什麽名字呀？”
“耶、不是……那個西呃……”
他疑惑地看着莫名磕絆了一下的亞雌，重複了一遍道，“西、爾？你叫西爾？”
耶爾才反應過來自己說了什麽，一時有些臉熱，但事已至此，他也只能硬着頭皮承認，“是的。”
“那我帶你按照最優浏覽路線逛一圈吧，這個學校大着呢，想要一天內參觀完好累的，但是值得一看的景點也就那麽幾個吧。”
“好，謝謝。”
“不客氣嘿嘿嘿嘿……”
耶爾原本以為只是有導游出行，到時候熟悉後順理成章分開就行，但事實證明，是他想得太天真了。
這個丹尼斯，社牛得有些過分了吧！
他會沖每個路過的學生或老師熱情地打招呼，然後将耶爾介紹給他們，最後在一陣爽朗的笑聲中結束這一場，然後樂此不彼地奔赴下一場社交。
耶爾簡直懷疑他認識這個學校裏的每一個學生，記下了每一個遇見的蟲的臉和名字，妥妥的長袖善舞交際花。
而幾乎和他打招呼的蟲，都會好奇地多看兩眼旁邊漂亮又神色冷淡的亞雌，只是沒幾個敢搭話的。
“……就這樣吧，再見再見！”丹尼斯揮手告別又一個好友。
耶爾嘆了口氣，突然覺得自己的社交量已經遠遠超标，接下來三個月都可以安心家裏蹲了。
“這個是我們學校唯一的湖，是不是很漂亮？冬天的時候湖面會結一層薄薄的冰……”
但是這樣高強度地打招呼也不影響丹尼斯的解說，他巴拉巴拉地介紹着學校裏的景物，帶着耶爾走過了一個又一個地點。
星際中的樹木早已經實現反季節栽種，品種多樣、錯落有致地圍繞在湖邊，樹梢落了些沒化的積雪，顯得有些蕭條，卻仍然美得出奇。
“确實好看。”
耶爾舉起光腦，咔嚓咔嚓。
“這裏是校慶舉辦的地點——中心廣場，這一整片的占地面積有……看這個娃娃，就是學校校徽上的吉祥物！”
“好大，感覺可以在上面停戰艦。”
耶爾舉起光腦，咔嚓咔嚓。
“這裏是一整條購物街，什麽都有，西爾要買點紀念品回去嗎？可以看看這裏的店鋪或小攤。”
時間已經快接近中午，終于走到了一條可以吃喝玩樂的購物街，丹尼斯擦了擦額頭的汗，羨慕地看着仍然幹淨清爽的耶爾。
“逛完這條街後找個地方休息一下吧，這裏有吃飯的地方，或者再等一會，去學校專門開放給校友的食堂吃也可以。”
耶爾放下舉着光腦的手，笑了笑道，“那一起去逛逛吧。”
店鋪應該是本來就有的，旁邊的移動小攤子就主要是學生在擺，基本什麽東西都有，流動的蟲潮挨挨擠擠，在那些店前面停留又走過。
“鐵板燒！好吃的鐵板燒……！”
“三年級的手寫筆記！一百星幣一斤！不接受講價哈……！”
“最新款能源飲料，能保證一個星期的基本能量！”
艾塔爾星上的居民比較少，而且各種活動空間都很狹小，舉辦什麽活動都顯得冷清，這裏卻不是這樣。
單是一所大學舉辦的校慶，那股熱騰騰的氣氛都好似洶湧澎拜的海浪，把裏面的蟲卷着往前走。
路過一個相對安靜的小攤，耶爾餘光瞥到一樣東西，詢問店主後将之拿在了手心裏。
【wwn：這個小蘑菇好可愛，只有一個巴掌那麽大，軟乎乎的。】
消息框中的照片裏，白淨的掌心裏躺着一只胖嘟嘟的小蘑菇。
五彩斑斓的傘帽上點綴着小朵野花，淺棕色的針織傘柄，被兩根骨節修長的手指圈住，更顯得小巧可愛。
【西澤：很可愛，買下來吧。】
“這個我買了。”
耶爾将錢轉給店主，将小蘑菇挂在了胸前的口袋上，襯得那雪白的薄羽絨都活潑了許多。
“久等了，繼續走吧。”
丹尼斯瞥到一閃而過的光腦頁面，亞雌發了很多張照片過去，但那邊好像有些冷淡，偶爾才會回一句話。
算了，本來就不是他能關心的東西。
今天能指引一個超級好看脾氣又溫和的亞雌參觀游玩，而不是去受有些高傲又自大的優秀校友的氣，就已經超級幸運了！
“累了嗎？前面有個地方可以坐着休息。”
……
耶爾拉開店門，看到了仍然癱在椅子上的丹尼斯，将手裏的一瓶能量液遞給他。
“謝謝……嗯？！最新款能量液！”
看清楚手裏的東西不是水，而是新上架的最新款能量液後，丹尼斯睜大了雙眼，連連擺手道，“不行，我不能拿，這個超級貴的！”
耶爾看了眼手裏的能量液，堅持遞給他，“這個不貴，謝謝你幫我引路。”
店裏面的能量液種類多種多樣，他随手拍了一下詢問西澤買哪種比較好，當時雌蟲圈出來的就是這個，說這個還勉勉強強，其他的都不行。
“雖然學校裏基本是貴族子弟，對他們來說完全無壓力，但我不是啦……這可是最新款！我三年的生活費都買不起，不行不行！”
居然這麽貴嗎……耶爾看了眼手裏的東西，後知後覺現在已經沒什麽錢的概念了。
光腦不知道什麽時候綁定了雌蟲的卡，大概是為了能讓自己用得安心，刷的時候連賬單都不會顯現出來。
“對我來說不貴，你拿着吧。”
耶爾還是堅持給了丹尼斯，在雌蟲小心地放進貼身口袋時也坐了下來，打開來吸了一口，“沒什麽味道。”
"Energy liquid has no taste. The lower the quality, the more impurities it has and the harder it tastes. The higher quality is very pure, and the best is when it tastes like drinking water."
Dennis was a little confused. The female in front of him casually bought two bottles of top-grade energy liquid. She was obviously rich or noble. How could she not know this common sense?
Yael bit the straw and said vaguely, "But I usually drink fruit flavors, strawberry, orange, passion fruit... like freshly squeezed drinks, very delicious."
The drink I drank during the secondary differentiation was strawberry flavored, and later on there were more flavors. I filled up my refrigerator at home and could take some whenever I was thirsty.
Dennis was stunned for a moment, a guess emerged in his mind, and his expression gradually became one of disbelief.
"You don't usually drink customized energy liquid, do you?"
Yael and he looked at each other for a moment, and were a little confused for a moment.
"I don't know. My family bought it from a worm. Is it custom-made? Is it expensive?"
Dennis covered his face with his hands and groaned in pain.
Help——Is this the world of the money worm? He is almost laughing at his own poverty!!!
After finally getting over the topic, Dennis bought another bottle of water and rested for a while in the shade before regaining his energy.
"Oh, that's what I was just about to say..."
The female insect scratched her head in confusion, "Why don't you take some pictures of yourself and send them to your friends?"
"If you want to share photos, you have to pose in 180 different positions and take photos while playing to show them to your friends! Or you can just record a video while explaining it, that's the way it feels!"
He jumped down from the stool and stared at Yael with burning eyes, "And it's so beautiful... it would be a waste if we didn't take more pictures!"
Yael was stunned for a moment, imagining what it would be like to send a selfie to Caesar, and for a moment he actually felt inexplicably hot in his ears and embarrassed.
"Ahem... No, no need. It feels weird."
Dennis narrowed his eyes, sensing something was amiss. "Your face is so red."
"…The sun is too bright."
Yael lowered his head to avoid his gaze, pursed his lips and whispered.
"He is on a business trip today. I may have posted too many photos just now. I don't know if it will bother him."
The female insect could only sleep two or three hours a day, or even no sleep at all. A light blue color had already appeared under her eyelids. Only during the brief moments when she held him in her arms to sleep would she reveal a hint of fatigue.
If he continues like this, he will become a burden to Cize sooner or later.
Dennis was at a loss as he watched the female's expression become lost.
"Are you okay? I can't help you because I'm busy with work, but he should be very happy to see the photo...!"
"If it's a photo of a bug I like, I'll like every one of them! I'll save them and take them out from time to time to look through them. I never get bored!"
"Don't be sad, next we are going to see the most romantic place in the school——"
The journey resumed with Dennis's words, and after walking for a while, the view in front of them suddenly opened up. The moment Yael raised his head, he fell into a trance.
In front of me is a lush ginkgo forest. The golden ginkgo leaves flutter in the wind, like the wings of countless golden butterflies, sparkling in the sunlight.
A winding path leads deep into the dense forest. The ground is covered with thick ginkgo leaves, which look like a soft blanket and make crisp crackling sounds when stepped on.
In my ears was the sound of Dennis chattering about the origin of the tree, and the rustling sound of the strong wind blowing through the treetops, like a warm and lively ceremony.
He was tempted for a moment and turned to look at Dennis with a slightly curved brow.
“Can you take a picture of me?”
Dennis' eyes lit up, he made an OK gesture, and eagerly tried to find a suitable position for him.
“I remember there was a bench under that tree where you could sit and take pictures.”
"Or just stand under the tree. Don't make those waving gestures! Are you some straight-talking idiot?! Pick up some ginkgo leaves to cover your eyes..."
*
Inside the starship command room.
Xi Ze was paying close attention to the situation on the battlefield. The experienced First Army was almost crushing the beast tide, and it would probably not take long for them to triumph.
The projection screen was broadcasting the bloody scene in real time. Countless flying malicious slime and blood and flesh continuously stained the camera lens, as if it was some kind of horror movie specially made for disgusting bugs.
He watched the battle with an expressionless face, occasionally recording abnormal data, and suddenly a tiny beeping sound was heard amid the noisy wailing.
Without taking his eyes off the screen, Xi Ze took the laptop in his hand and waited until the battle situation stabilized before he casually opened the message page.
The next second, his pupils shrank slightly.
In the message box, the original photo barely showed even a shadow, but this time a close-up half-body photo was shown.
Against a hazy golden background, Yael leaned against a ginkgo tree, picked up a ginkgo leaf and covered one side of his eyebrows, making his face look even warmer and more delicate.
The mottled sunlight fell on the strands of hair on his forehead, his long eyelashes seemed to tremble slightly, and the moment he raised his eyes to look at the camera, his face was incredibly bright and alive.
This photo is like an arrow that pierces through time and space, piercing through my soft heart in an instant, leaving behind a shudder that is difficult to get rid of for a long time, buzzing non-stop.
After a long while, Xi Ze came back to his senses and couldn't suppress a soft laugh.
He stared at the male insect in the photo in trance, and his originally sharp eyes gradually softened.
How can there be such a cute male insect in the world?
What should he do? They've only been apart for one day and he's already beginning to miss her hopelessly.
The author has something to say:
Yeah Yeah: Yeah V (the eternal photo pose)
