Chapter 56 The Widowed Snake
[Latest news from the Saarland Federation: Yesterday afternoon, investigators led a technical team to the "organizer's" residence and discovered key evidence by recovering deleted communication records and encrypted files.]
In a phone call between organizers and core members of the Freedom Alliance, they explicitly mentioned "using suicide marches to guide public opinion toward extremism."
The government held an emergency press conference and denied reporters' questions about "violent law enforcement." There's ample evidence that organizers had a "parade script" stored on their computers, clearly documenting the planning, including when to ignite the self-immolation device and how to direct the media to film the military crackdown.
A government spokesperson warned everyone: Public anger deserves respect, but anger exploited by those with ulterior motives will only become a knife stabbing oneself.
Zhai Wenxi pressed the remote control with his fingertips, and the TV screen randomly folded up.
He picked up a crystal grape and put it to Jingyue's lips, his eyebrows raised with pride: "Look at my buddy's ability to solve problems, follow me."
Jing Yue chuckled while holding a grape in his mouth: "Really? But you don't even know how to use a washing machine..."
"Oh, you've been arguing with me every day lately." Zhai Wenxi threw Jing Yue to the ground and kissed him madly.
The grapes in the plate were accidentally knocked over, and the green grapes rolled all over him.
He pinched one and put it in his mouth.
She moved closer to Jingyue and actively fed him with her mouth.
Jing Yue raised his head to catch the cool grape, and his Adam's apple froze after rolling twice.
In just a moment, his pajamas inexplicably slipped to his ankles.
Zhai Wenxi was rubbing the gland on the back of his neck with his fangs, his voice trembling with muffled voice: "Can you not wear it this time? It's still early in your estrus period..."
"I haven't had sex with you properly for half a month." Zhai Wenxi rubbed Jingyue's neck, "It's okay, Yueyue."
Jing Yue grabbed his hand that was groping him: "But, I'm an omega that can easily get pregnant. Your father doesn't like me, and I don't want to drag you down because of this..."
Before he could finish his words, Zhai Wenxi kissed him in the breath, "Nonsense! I will only love you in my life and will only marry you. If you get pregnant, I will marry you immediately."
"But……"
"But what? Look, Xiao Xiaoyue is so depressed."
Jing Yue blushed and tried to push him away, but was startled by the warm touch and gasped.
Seeing that he disagreed, Zhai Wenxi slid down on her own initiative, put her arms around his slender waist, and hugged him to sit up.
He leaned back on the sofa, with Jing Yue sitting on his knees.
Zhai Wenxi took the initiative to comfort Xiao Xiaoyue, pushing forward slowly again and again.
Jing Yue didn't expect him to be like this. Even though his whole body was shaking, he just gasped silently, as if he was afraid of disturbing the servants outside.
Zhai Wenxi was even more ecstatic, as he was surrounded by the little rabbit's pheromones.
Pheromones were scattered irregularly throughout the room, making it even more difficult for him to control his mind.
The rabbit's pheromone is mild and non-aggressive, like skin touching a membrane as thin as a cicada's wing.
More comfortable than any omega he had ever slept with.
So what if the pheromone matching degree is over 90%? He doesn’t like it and doesn’t even want to touch it.
He only had a crazy possessiveness towards this little rabbit, but he also knew that he had no say in his own marriage.
…
As they were proceeding, Zhai Wenxi's cell phone kept ringing.
But when their love was deep, neither of them cared about the noise, and they even regarded the notification tone of their mobile phone as the commanding height of every action.
Only after the little rabbit was comforted and dared not move again did Zhai Wenxi look at his phone.
The screen was full of calls from Qi Sheng.
Zhai Wenxi called back: "What's wrong? Did you step in dog poop and are you so anxious?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while before asking, "Did Yu Li go to your house?"
"No."
"He's missing! The last trace of the nanotracker you gave me showed him stopping at a nearby beach."
"...Don't worry, maybe he's on his way to find Jingyue." He looked up and asked Jingyue, "Did Yu Li send you a message?"
Jing Yue was swaying towards the bathroom, his voice full of fatigue, "My phone is there, go check it out."
Zhai Wenxi unlocked Jingyue's phone and saw two messages.
"He sent a message to Jingyue..."
"What's that?"
[Jingyue~Next time we meet, I will bring the brightest pearl for your bunny\(^o^)/]
Zhai Wenxi's voice trembled when he read this sentence.
If the mobile phone had a one-click transmission function, Qi Sheng would definitely rush over, snatch his phone, drill into the screen and pull the mermaid out.
"He, what does he mean by this? Could it be that your mermaid ran away with someone?"
"Beep, beep, beep——" the phone was hung up.
Zhai Wenxi called back again, but the call remained unanswered.
He flipped up and unexpectedly found a photo.
Zoom in and take a look——
In the dim banquet hall, he and his marriage partner leaned against each other in an ambiguous posture.
Zhai Wenxi's pupils suddenly shrank, and his thumb pressed hard on the delete key.
Jing Yue just came out of the bathroom after taking a shower. "Is Qi Sheng looking for Yu Li?"
Zhai Wenxi took the towel from his hand with concern and wiped his hair carelessly: "No, it's just that the couple is having a conflict. Blow your hair quickly to prevent you from catching a cold."
"...Okay, alright." Jing Yue always felt that Zhai Wenxi was a little strange, but he was a little afraid of Qi Sheng, so he didn't ask any more questions.
——
Three days later.
Qi Sheng pushed the door open tiredly and returned to his home.
It was also the first time he had the courage to come back here again.
The fish tank at home, which was originally full of water, had a pungent musty smell because no one had taken care of it for a long time.
But he didn't want to think about it. Instead, he walked to the bedroom step by step and closed the door.
The phone indicated that the battery was low, and the red warning symbol kept flashing in the middle of the phone, covering up the messages constantly coming to the screen.
From [Brother]:
Yesterday at 8:09 [If things are not handled properly, who will clean up the mess for you?]
Yesterday 12:45 [Hurry back to the army, you are needed for the meeting]
Yesterday at 23:12 [You are so useless, because a mermaid is dying]
3 minutes ago [Must return to the army tomorrow morning]
From [Tan Yuan]:
[Major General, not here] [Major General, not here]
[Major General, still not found] [Major General, the entry and exit system did not detect the mermaid biological signal]
[Major General, the Führer has asked me to inform you to immediately cease your unauthorized searches...]
From [Bai Chuan]:
Mermaids belong to the ocean and shouldn't be forced to stay on shore.
…
It's so noisy.
Qi Sheng lay on the bed where they had slept together, staring at the ceiling above in the dark room.
He raised his hand and pressed his throbbing temples, and his three-day-old stubble scraped against the pillowcase, making a slight sound.
The cell phone was thrown on the ground, still stubbornly flashing red light, just like the glowing tail fin of a mermaid.
Why would he fall in love with a mermaid?
Why didn't you stay with him all the time?
Why does he want to leave?
Something was wrong, but he didn't know what.
"Yu Li, I know you just went out for fun."
"I'm a little tired, let me sleep for a while..."
I hope to see you back by my side when I open my eyes again.
He hadn't slept for three days and three nights. Even though he was an alpha with a very strong mental state, he still needed rest to restore his body.
He slowly closed his eyes.
Then he saw his father whom he had not seen for a long time.
When I was eight years old, the sea breeze seemed to blow across my cheeks again.
I remember that day, the sky was very blue, and flocks of seagulls were circling and crying overhead.
My father held my hand with his rough big hand, and the sea breeze with a slightly salty smell blew up the corners of my clothes.
"I heard there are mermaids living in the deep sea. Daddy will lift you up high so you can see them."
My father suddenly lifted me above his head, and my vision suddenly broadened.
But I could only see the dark sea water and nothing else.
I couldn't help but mutter, "There's nothing!"
My father smiled and carried me to the bow of the ship, and the beam of light from the searchlight pierced the darkness.
"Little boy, you have to concentrate to find it!" He deliberately rubbed my face with his stubble. "Maybe the mermaid is watching you."
"Then I'll take a look."
At this point, the scene began to become chaotic.
"See? That red mermaid! He's very small..."
"Aren't mermaids blue? Why are there red ones?"
"The red ones are rare species and bring us good luck..."
"Good luck" comes when it comes.
The ship was attacked when it was leaving the deep sea area and about to reach the shallow sea area. Several soldiers protected me behind them.
At this moment, a deafening gunshot pierced the night sky.
I will always remember the way my father fell down, like a big tree being cut down.
Under the attack of powerful external force, the ship began to sink to the bottom of the sea.
I drank big gulps of salty sea water and heard the soldiers' panicked shouts. I felt like I was going to die.
Just as I was about to lose consciousness, I seemed to see the small mermaid with red scales.
The feeling of it hugging me felt so real, yet so like a dream.
When I woke up, I found that my father and I were washed onto the shallows by the waves.
My father is not dead, and I am not dead either. It all seems like a dream.
I saw the gunshot wound on my father's chest, which was covered with fish-scale patterns, like stitches used to suture the wound, encircling the original injured area.
I kept this secret in my heart for many years. Later, my father died in the battlefield and I never had the chance to ask him.
…
"Yu Li!" Qi Sheng woke up from his dream.
He pounded his swollen head and frantically searched for his cell phone.
The cell phone was lying upside down on the ground. He got out of bed to get it, but stepped on a broken beer bottle.
He turned on the bedside lamp and looked behind him nervously.
Yu Li hasn't come back yet.
The broken glass had cut a semi-arc shape on his ankle, and blood was oozing out...
Qi Sheng suddenly thought of something, stumbled to his feet, and rummaged through the drawer.
He took out a small gift box hidden at the innermost part of the drawer, and his fingertips trembled when they touched the velvet box.
That was the gift Yu Li gave him when they got married.
The moment the lid of the box popped open, the red scales suddenly burst out with a strange light.
wrong.
What just happened was not a dream, it really happened!
