Love Cycle (XI) Northern Beastman Stereotypes +…

"Kiss, touch, and do..."

Anushka paused and then changed the subject nonchalantly: “…hug.”

"Kiss, touch, and hug."

“Eight words,” Anushka said redundantly in a tense voice.

"Really?" Shi Cunjin lifted his eyelids and nodded, his expression unchanged. He understood in his heart: Oh, Kashu only remembered the memories that stimulated his senses.

Yes. This is very hot-blooded and foolish, because of innocence to the point of being foolish, but the memory fragments of love/sexuality that broke through the conservative bottom line are profound? Shi Cunjin thought about it in his heart and came to a conclusion: What is the human version of love/sexuality imprinted with behavior?

Northern Beastman Stereotype +1

Anushka watched silently. Fate did not show any scrutiny for his on-the-spot change of words, nor did she show any displeasure for his overly straightforward expression.

In fact, Fate seems to be in a better mood...? For a moment, Anushka's heart shrank as if someone had squeezed it hard, and her blood rushed to her ears and neck.

The next second, Anushka denies Meili's guess - Fate is happy that he has retained his memory.

He tried to look at the details of Fate's clothes as carefully as possible: a neat high collar, tight gloves, no perfume on his body, and the clothes were the common instructor uniforms in the medical city. Except for the pure and bright silver short hair and the extremely standard straight and slender figure, Fate's appearance was strict and ordinary. If he walked into any main city in the medical district, he would disappear in the sea of ​​people in a flash.

Anushka had been trained since childhood and could easily tell that Fit's nighttime outings were also so regular. Either he was a germaphobe or he was unhappy with the physical sensation of this meeting.

He didn't want to leave any impression on me. Anushka realized this very quickly, and her heart seemed to relax and feel a little bit down.

Shi Cunjin was indeed in a better mood. Those erotic scenes that were recalled were just an accidental virtual interaction. AI Sibyl was good at deleting data, and Shi Cunjin was good at not being trapped by mistakes. Anushka did not remember the virus program that actually caused all the accidents. This was the best reward Shi Cunjin got for attending the meeting tonight.

"I'm happy for your recovery after the surgery." Shi Cunjin said to Anushka, his tone no different from any other doctor making rounds, his expression calm. "You recalled only a few fragments of memory, but they were accurate and just summarized this chaotic accident."

"Accident?" Anushka frowned and subconsciously took a few steps forward, closer to Fate. His tall shadow was like a black sea tide, rising from the ground and gently touching the tip of Shi Cunjin's shoe.

The shadow caressed Shi Cunjin's boots, calves, and thighs - too close, losing etiquette, beyond the social distance, Anushka smelled the faint scent of the senior; hot black tea, a little bit of non-pungent alcohol, honey, resin beeswax essential oil incense, paper and ink - Fate had not rested well recently and was still working before the meeting. In his office, resin essential oil candles were lit to relieve mental fatigue, and he also drank half a cup or a few sips of hot black tea with red wine and honey before coming.

These are liquids and scents that help keep your mood happy.

Fate, with an indifferent expression, has a pleasant smell. When Anushka realized this, her own shadow had already caught up with the person who was haunting her.

Shi Cunjin did not move, neither in his body nor in his expression. He turned a blind eye to the sense of oppression created by the young people consciously or unconsciously, and lightly told a simple version of the replacement story:

Jian Ning from the East School and Ka Xu from the North School met temporarily in the Middle Boundary due to personal reasons. They happened to see NPC Fate issuing a rare special mission indicator. The two developed a verbal dispute into a competitive fight, and each organized a team to fight against each other.

During the competition for the special mission indicator, Jian Ning from the East School used the wrong special command to attack, and the command attack range covered both Cash and NPC Fate, thus triggering some special scene behaviors. In the end, the East and North campuses, who were fighting fiercely, ended this chaotic oolong game with the help of the West School students.

"..." Anushka suppressed the denial that was about to jump to her tongue, and said in a tense voice: "According to the testimony of my teammate Eamon," Shi Cunjin raised an eyebrow. "When he arrived at the central lake area, Jian Ning was giving me the first round of attack orders and successfully blew off one of my arms. He saw me flying in the sky, and did not see you in the lake hall area."

"Oh." Shi Cunjin said calmly, "Of course I'm not in the Lake Hall."

"You threw me into the lake to take refuge. After you won, you drove the chimera to take me away, and a special scene interaction took place."

“……” Is this true? Why are you so calm and seem like you are not involved in the matter? Anushka thought expressionlessly.

"If you want to see it with your own eyes." Shi Cunjin took out a USB flash drive from his pocket, flicked it with his fingers, and turned it like a coin between the long fingers of the slender white gloves. Finally, the handle of the USB flash drive was facing Anushka, politely indicating that he should take it. "Here is the data diary of some of the competition."

"You came prepared." Anushka didn't raise her hand, staring at Shi Cunjin, and said sharply, "You expect to end the whole thing with the contents of the USB drive."

At noon, Janine's words began to grind in Anoushka's head like a war meat grinder - do you understand? The reason you get those special treatments is because you hold my authority.

I don't have the authority. How could Fate, who hasn't looked back at you for four months, care about you? Don't be funny - Jane Ning's voice echoed sarcastically in Anushka's mind: beast.

"Of course." Shi Cunjin nodded, not shaken by the alertness in the other party's words. Instead, he said calmly as if chatting with an old friend: "In the past four months, I have witnessed your persistence. You are quite self-centered. Compared with other people's rumors, you always trust the news you have verified yourself more. And in the process of pursuit, perhaps intentionally or unintentionally, you will definitely hurt other people, and your just healed..."

"You were the ones who took my memory first." Anushka interrupted abruptly. He took another step forward and was only a palm away from the elder. A corner of Anushka's heart was filled, and his shadow completely enveloped Shi Cunjin.

Now Shi Cunjin had to raise his head slightly to look at Anushka in order to maintain eye contact.

"The Neutral Zone is famous for its AI technology. What's on the plate you prepared?" Anushka stared at Shi Cunjin, whose expression remained unchanged, and said without giving in, "Some edited holographic data, some data backtracking on why Jian Ning and I fought? Some data backtracking videos of me using the Black War God to take you to the sky? ... These are all evasive products used to soothe my emotions and my thirst for knowledge."

"You will delete everything that is not in your favor... I can't remember the kisses and hugs you initiated, but they did happen. You allowed me to stick out my tongue when I kissed you... The true cause and effect of everything is not in the USB drive at all."

The young man from the North District came too close, so close that the hot blood from his body rushed towards Shi Cunjin, gently warming Shi Cunjin's face. Shi Cunjin was a little bit choked by the smell of disinfectant alcohol used for physical examinations on Anushka's body.

In the invisible conversation, the young man's step-by-step approach is a clear sign of attack. If Shi Cunjin subconsciously takes two steps back, the conversation momentum will naturally weaken. Once the conversation reveals a weakness and begins to explain himself... Anushka can bite the topic she wants - asking Shi Cunjin to take the initiative to explain the causes and consequences of the special intimate scene.

The suddenly shortened social distance had not yet triggered Shi Cunjin's actions or emotional reactions, but the AI ​​Sibyl hidden in the surveillance camera couldn't stand it anymore and shouted in the ear bone conduction headset:

[Hey, he's just talking, why is he standing so close to me!?] - At the same time, rows of electric needles on the high fences on both sides of the overpass lit up with dazzling blue-white currents with a burning temperature of over 1500° - [What kind of social interaction is it to talk face to face! If he dares to touch you -]

Shi Cunjin still did not take a step back, nor did he follow Anushka's topic. Instead, his fingers holding the USB drive loosened and he casually held the USB drive in his palm. He raised the same hand with a calm expression, gently pinched Anushka's jaw, and held Anushka's jaw, dragging her face a few centimeters towards his face.

——This is almost a prelude to a kiss.

The young Anushka paused for a moment, his questioning aura froze instantly, his head subconsciously followed the white glove, all strength, persistence and pressure disappeared, and his downward-looking posture turned into an active bowing of his head.

The next second Anushka heard the elder laugh.

The laughter was light, humming out indistinctly from the throat, like a laugh or a mockery.

"A very youthful way of saying it." Shi Cunjin said. He held Anushka's chin and pinched her cheekbones with his fingers, like picking a satisfactory apple from a row of brightly colored apples. He pinched Anushka's face and moved it left and right, examining the appearance of this young northerner.

"Has a nice face."

"And obedient enough."

Shi Cunjin's voice was still peaceful, which Anushka disliked the most, without revealing a trace of personal emotion. "As one of the parties involved in handling special scenes, you are qualified. Qualified, but not special. Anushka, there are many things in this world that I can actively pursue, unknown knowledge, answers to difficult problems, solutions to dangerous situations - you have become one of my solutions at the right time."

"You are very useful." Shi Cunjin said calmly, "That's why we were able to successfully handle that special interactive scene. As for the so-called cause and effect, you haven't seen the contents of the USB drive, so how do you know whether it exists or not?"

Oh, yes, yes, yes. Okay. "..." Anushka's ears were filled with the sound of her own heartbeat.

[——If you need me to shout, I will immediately activate the spear needle on the overpass to electrocute him.] AI Sibyl turned off the engine for a second, pretending not to see the boss's entire movement of objectifying a person with just a few gestures.

Shi Cunjin loosened his grip on Anushka's face, took his hands back, and put them behind his back. He was like a teacher who had just finished explaining a difficult problem to his students. "Okay, step back two steps. The smell of disinfectant alcohol on you is a bit strong. Let me breathe some fresh air."

"Sorry." The expressionless young man took a step back and lost the opportunity to ask a question that he had finally grasped.

Anushka reacted quickly: ... Damn, I was fooled by the other party's words and actions.

Anushka did not give up, her heart was beating wildly - Fate came to see me specifically, it must be because that special interaction was definitely not a simple procedural error, he came to check how much I still remembered... No matter what, he came for me anyway. Opportunity.

"Then what is there about me that is worthy of you sending a special message to make an appointment?" Anushka asked in a tense voice.

Shi Cunjin raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise. [Why did you come?] This is an easy entry point to find out the truth of the competition. If the truth of the competition is not important, the administrator Fate does not have to come down in person. If the administrator Fate comes down, it must be that the truth is valuable. But Anushka did not ask the truth, but asked Fate what he valued.

Does this person know what he is talking about? Shi Cunjin stared at Anushka for a few seconds. The young student was sweating and tense, lowering his eyebrows and staring at Shi Cunjin's chin, nervously waiting for an answer. The overpass was silent, they stood facing each other, and Shi Cunjin could almost hear Anushka's heartbeat.

This stubborn and arrogant man from the North was willing to give up the pursuit of the truth just because Fate had a preference that he could express.

Blind young people. Shi Cunjin sighed, changed his original words, and said gently: "I came here because this competition involved innocent students from the West School. They had no intention of taking away the results of your competition, but the result was that they won the championship of this competition. And their family is under the protection of Jane Ning, and they have already borne enough blame."

"If you continue to investigate this matter, the other students who are involved for no reason will suffer more pressure."

"Most importantly, your brain has already experienced brain death. It is not appropriate to try another neurological surgery during the high-risk period after surgery."

"Extremely strong and self-centered, this kind of character is a very good quality in the North, but it is not compatible with other regions. Sometimes being too persistent will only hurt yourself." Shi Cunjin said calmly, "After seven days, the Northern Alliance has already received enough compensation from the negotiations."

"Jane was expelled from the school and given other fines and restrictions for abusing the special attack order to kill a freshman.

You seriously injured Jian Ning in the competition. His injuries were less severe than yours, but that doesn't mean he wasn't injured. Considering that your attack was a counterattack and self-defense, you will bring your chimera to school next year. Your empathy ratio needs to be readjusted, and your credits for one year of training will be reset to zero as a warning."

Shi Cunjin shook the USB drive at Anushka and said, "In order to prevent you from rushing around to find out the truth about the competition and adding unnecessary pressure to your body and other innocent people, I will open a small back door for you. After you read some of the competition data, you can have a good rest and a long sleep."

"To protect you from getting hurt in the neutral zone, that's why I invited you to meet tonight."

"..." Anushka's tense aura weakened, he pursed his lips and tilted his face.

"I'm sorry, it's my fault." After a moment, Anushka said to Shi Cunjin that she had not compromised with Jian Ning for seven days, "I will follow the arrangement tomorrow and attend the handshake meeting as usual to end all this as soon as possible."

Even though reconciling with Jane Ning would make him hate her until next year...Anushka took the USB flash drive handed to her by Fate.

"Thank you for your understanding." Shi Cunjin said, "Then..."

Anushka immediately held Shi Cunjin's hand.

Shi Cunjin lowered his eyes and glanced at his hand, then raised his eyes and glanced at Anushka, raising his eyebrows.

“…I’m sorry.” Anushka said hesitantly, “…After that, when we return to school, please allow me to continue giving you gifts…”

"As far as I can remember," Shi Cunjin laughed this time, "I have never approved of you wasting credits in the past four months."

Anushka: “…”

Topics, topics, what other good topics are there? Anushka clearly felt that the atmosphere of his conversation with Fate had become completely peaceful after the USB drive was handed over.

Peace means the end.

Should I continue chatting with Fate by saying something irrelevant to make her angry? No... Fate looked at him with her eyes slightly tilted. It was good... I didn't want to spoil it.

“I will continue to send them.” Anushka finally ran out of topics to talk about. “Just ignore me and keep doing what you have done.”

Shi Cunjin talked about another new thing instead, "In the second academic year, the South Campus will be unsealed, and the four major campuses will have connected course schedules. You will have many new students enrolling in the next term, and AI Sibyl will also re-plan a set of credit gift mechanisms... After that, the gift prices will become more expensive, so don't waste it..." "That's not a problem for me." Anushka interrupted.

Anushka said nonchalantly, "No matter how many campuses join the credits list and compete for points, I will always be the first. I have proved my ability this year. I will not regret using my credits to buy gifts, and I will never blame you for it."

"You won't blame me?" Shi Cunjin suddenly repeated.

"Yes." Anoushka pursed her lips, and felt something was wrong for a moment, but Fate was looking at him, so Anoushka said, "I won't blame you. It's my own choice, and I will never blame you."

"You'll never blame me? Oh, remember what you said now." Shi Cunjin smiled and nodded to Anushka, "Then the competition ends here."

"Have a good rest. I look forward to your full recovery and going to school. Good night, Anushka." Shi Cunjin shook his wrist, signaling Anushka to let go.

"..." Anushka paused for two seconds before letting go of his hand and whispered, "Good night, Fate."

—Oh, remember what you said now.

Fate's smiling reminder filled Anushka's entire summer vacation.

I thought about it during my physical rehabilitation, during field training, during missions, and at four o'clock in the morning every night - is Fate considering accepting my efforts and pursuit?

At the age of 19, Anushka has an unprecedented passion for her future.

He began to train hard, doubly satisfying the teachers' training requirements and mission instructions, and seized every opportunity to take the beast brothers to carry out missions. The Northern Alliance is extremely vast, and there are many unknown areas that have not been conquered. Anushka is no longer as indifferent as before. In the past, when working with the team on missions, Anushka did not value some of the resources that were discovered; natural hot springs, large oily fish that are rare in hot springs, precious mines, natural oil produced in rifts thousands of feet deep, and the territory of unknown beasts. Every time a mission is carried out, more than half of similar precious production areas are discovered by Anushka. Anushka, who was born in a golden nest, rarely asks for them, and most of them will be given to other teammates in the same group. But not now.

He needs these to pave the way for his future rise.

Throughout the summer vacation, the young chimera rider was like a wild animal building a nest and looking for a mate, desperately collecting all valuable mission gifts. Anushka's desires had a clear destination, and he would not visit empty-handed.

Until the new school year came, Anushka even conceived all the risk plans and solutions they would encounter in the next 20 years after his pursuit of success.

but.

Anushka did not see Fate until the first welcome party of the holographic school was about to begin because of the merger of four schools.

"The guidance senior from our district?" At the West Campus subway station, a sophomore from the West Campus who was stopped to ask for directions looked at the tall and gloomy North Campus student in front of him and said nervously, "What do you want to see the guidance senior from our district for...Okay, I'll tell you! I'll tell you!"

The West School student shuddered. How come the long black shadow connected to the wall behind the North School student was moving?

“The seniors in our district are still in the freshman orientation classroom processing information for the new students.” A sophomore said, “There are so many new students this year, and the seniors are overwhelmed by the amount of information.”

“Thank you,” Anushka asked and left.

As a student of the North Campus, Anushka cannot enter other campuses without authorization from the corresponding campus guidance NPC.

Anushka arrived at the subway station which is a must-go for the West Campus to the Central Campus Auditorium.

He and his Beast Brothers hid in the shadow of a tall garden wall not far from the subway station to avoid disturbing the ordinary West School students who came out.

Anushka leaned against the wall with her arms folded, a bouquet of red roses in her arms, and stared patiently.

Wave after wave of West Campus students took the subway out of the campus. At 8 p.m., 15 minutes before the clock struck midnight, the holographic sky turned a dark purple black. The lamp posts at the West Metro Station were retro European-style gas lamps, with their cores round like dandelion balls, glowing with a warm yellow light.

The students from the West School had almost all left, with only a few senior students walking quickly towards the auditorium one after another.

"Buzz-buzz." Anushka's smart ring kept vibrating. The new banquet for the merger of campuses started at 20:00. There were not many senior students from the North Campus. Anushka was the sophomore speaker for the North Campus and the only representative from the North Campus to go on stage. His classmates asked him why he had not arrived at the auditorium yet.

Anushka replied to Evans' message midway - this guy is insidiously trying to sue his parents: Losing contact again on the eve of the big ceremony, totally undisciplined! Sue your dad! - AC: [I can get to the scene in 1 minute, and I will sue your dad if you keep arguing. ]

EA: [Heh.]

Only one looked up, and the Black God of War nudged his back with his head. Anushka looked up and saw another group of students from the West School coming out of the subway station with dim warm yellow lights more than ten meters away.

A group of five or six freshmen chattered as they walked forward, surrounding a uniformed figure with long silver hair.

Two steps behind the long silver-haired figure on the left, a tall and strong figure with short silver hair followed closely behind. The two silver figures looked very close.

A sense of crisis exploded in Anushka's heart. He stood up straight in an instant and put his hands down heavily.

A few rose petals were shaken off and fell on the edge of Anushka's black boots. The chimera, who was partially empathetic with her, panted anxiously and tapped the garden tiles with its long wings anxiously.

Anushka immediately followed him, and the Beast Brothers stared at the unfamiliar tall student with short silver hair in the crowd of West School students, and rushed!

"What's that bang coming over here...Ah!?" "Ah!" The first-year students of the West School who were walking together suddenly burst into screams as if they had seen a ghost.

A black beast suddenly appeared in the darkness!

The giant beast used its front paws to pin down a tall man with short silver-gray hair among the crowd of West School students, clamped the man's shoulders and neck, and forced him to crawl face down.

But, Anushka, who was moving at the same time, suddenly stopped and did not move forward.

As the freshmen of West School scattered in panic, Anushka could see the figure of a student with long silver hair in the crowd.

This student with long silver hair is half a head shorter than Fate, and his silver hair is not as pure and shiny as Fate's, but a grayish silver color.

The lights in the West Campus subway station were dim, casting a hazy goose-yellow halo on everyone's hair, causing Anushka to be unable to spot it directly even after looking from a distance.

The short student with long silver hair screamed, turned around and stumbled towards the pure black Chimera: "What? - Brother! Brother!"

Anushka stood still, holding a bouquet of bright roses, which was upside down, with almost all the petals falling. Anushka looked at the silver-haired figure who knelt on the ground in panic. Another stranger.

The empty feeling of falling spread rapidly from his feet upwards like a swarm of ants, tearing at his heart.

"Fate... Guidance Senior, where is Fate?" More than ten seconds later, Anushka asked in a dry voice a freshman from the West School who bravely stood in front of him.

"Senior Fate?" The freshman from the West School was stunned for a moment, "I don't know... uh, I mean... I don't know."

The West School students looked in the direction of the guidance seniors. The shorter senior was helping the taller senior up. "Our guidance senior NPCs this year are Singila Feng and Raymond."

The West School students whispered, "Seniors Singila and Raymond will be in charge of the West School's orientation process for a long time. ... We don't have an orientation senior named Fate in our school, and we won't have one in the future."

The pure black chimera with sharp hearing loosened its front legs, walked away from the two silver-haired creatures with disinterest, and ran back to the human brothers.

It didn't find anyone familiar and became very annoyed. It used its head to nudge the motionless human brother on the back, but the human brother ignored it.

The students from the West School reacted immediately and ran away, supporting each other.

The cold night wind blew past Anushka's ears as she stood there stiffly, and it was as if she had heard Fate's ambiguous laughter two months ago.

—Oh, remember what you said now.

In real life, Fate has a young face, and the not-so-obvious age difference between the two makes Anushka forget again and again that Fate is not a real student.

Fate can walk freely in the neutral zone, has a close relationship with AI Sibyl, and even Jane Ning of the Eastern Alliance can't do anything to him. How could such a person be helpless against his pursuit, and how could he stay in a place full of immature students for a long time?

—Never blame me? Oh, remember what you said now.

...This was the true meaning of the only words Fate said that night that were tinged with emotion and smile.

Fate would not return to campus, so there was no need to respond to his request for flowers, but she did not explicitly reject him as he was injured at the time, and gave him an ambiguous answer. It was with this answer that Anushka, who was looking forward to returning to campus and meeting Fate, worked hard to carry out rehabilitation training. After the operation, all his physical signs recovered perfectly, and it did not affect his future journey at all.

Then, Anushka did not wait for Fate.

Fate left the campus completely.

Fate had tricked him.

But when he came to his senses, Anushka still felt that...even Fate's teasing words were like a drop of sweet rain.

According to past habits, Anoushka would definitely be furious. He had been looking forward to this for so long, and had been pushing himself for two months, preparing many expensive physical gifts, and exploring several very beautiful aurora sites... "You will never blame me?" - Fate's laughter from two months ago came out of his memory, causing Anoushka's anger to rise and fall intermittently.

Anushka covered his face with one hand and remained silent for a long time, until the night brain ring beeped again. He spat at himself and said, "Damn, I am so stupid."

He lowered his eyes and glanced at the incoming call on his smart brain ring. It was an urging message from Evans Eamon: [Too lazy to talk about it, the countdown is less than 2 minutes, and I'm on it. ]

Another message came one after another. Jack: [Captain, go to the auditorium as soon as possible. The South Campus is reopened this year. This welcome banquet brings together the new generation of students from the four alliance areas. The process of the welcome banquet has attracted much attention. The title of Prometheus's outstanding students is a plus for entering the parliament in the future. You are the representative of the North Campus this term, please don't miss it. ]

After reading the contents of the USB drive that recorded some of the data diary, Anushka rarely tried to recall the competition.

Now, in the midst of a splitting headache, the calm Anushka's brain once again flashed back to a certain fragment, a certain line of Fate's voice.

[Except for the Golden Crown of the North, I don’t care about anyone in the North.] The voice said coldly.

Oh. Another fresh memory. Anushka deadpanned and chuckled - a cunning and picky liar.

[I'll be there soon.] He casually replied to the urging classmate, and raised his hand to touch the big head of the beast brother. The black war god was still surrounded by anxiety due to the influence of neural resonance.

"It's okay. I already know where he lives." Anushka lowered his eyes, and the shadow of his eyelashes made his pupils turn into dark and rusty copper-gold and black-red. He whispered, "The real person."

The Black War God opened his mouth, and his ferocious scarlet snake tongue curled out. He licked his front beak and made an excited hissing sound.

Anushka glanced at the beast brother and said, "Okay."
