Chapter 63 Abnormality Let’s write off the differences between us…

In the ward, the white blackout curtains were slowly lowered, blocking out most of the glaring light from outside.

This is an observation ward located in a corner, far away from the public area, so there is no strong smell of disinfectant.

A spotless white quilt was spread over Sergeant Beta's body, revealing only half of his slender wrist, which was wearing an identification bracelet for the inpatient department.

Ji He lay quietly on the hospital bed with his eyes closed, frowning from time to time, looking very weak.

Losing consciousness completely on the battlefield is an extremely terrifying experience for any soldier.

When Ji He's mental strength was exhausted, a huge pressure began to spread along his temples on both sides, like countless iron hammers hitting his fragile nerves.

The once clear memory became a mess, like fragments in a blender that were distorted beyond all recognition.

"Jihe!"

He heard someone calling his name, but he no longer had the strength to tell who was calling him.

A thin layer of sweat appeared on the man's back, most of which was absorbed by the hospital gown.

The next second, the sound rang out again.

Along with this cry, waves of bombardment in Ji He's mind came one after another, making him feel extremely painful and uneasy.

In his dream, he struggled desperately, like a bird with broken legs, trying hard to fly higher.

But there were no trees, no place for him to land.

Beta opened his eyes.

The world I saw after opening my eyes was blurry, as if covered by a thin veil.

He was unable to clearly capture the details of his surroundings, and it felt unreal.

"Ji He, you finally woke up."

The voice became a little trembling, as if it was coming closer.

Ji He blinked and saw clearly that the Alpha who was approaching him was Huo Yubai.

Colonel Huo called a doctor and a nurse for him, but they seemed a little too excited. They could have pressed the call bell, but they rushed straight to the duty desk.

Beta grabbed the metal armrest and slowly sat up. Apart from the headache, he felt that he had no other problems.

Soon, a circle of doctors and nurses surrounded him and chattered a lot.

In response to the doctor's questions, Ji He simply nodded or shook his head, occasionally uttering a sentence or two of description.

When he turned his head, he saw lilies and eustoma flowers beside the bed.

The original snow pear paper is gone, and the pure white flowers are placed in a transparent glass bottle.

The flowers looked like they had been there for a few days. I didn't know who changed the water for them, but it seemed like the water level was a little high, which could easily rot the roots.

The flowers didn't wilt, but their branches were drooping, looking unhappy.

Ji He wrinkled his nose and tried to sniff, but he could only smell a faint residual fragrance, which was more to his liking than a strong smell.

"Besides the headache, do you feel any other discomfort?" the doctor asked while adjusting the value of the pain pump.

The nurse standing by stared at the young Lieutenant Ji and thought that this Beta was really handsome.

Ji He, who was lying on the hospital bed, thought for a moment and answered honestly, "It seems not."

"Um."

"Colonel Huo, Lieutenant Ji. We'll be leaving now. You can always contact us if you need anything."

The federal military doctor and nurse nodded to the two people in the ward and closed the door gently.

Ji He only had a headache, but his hearing was not damaged. He asked in confusion, "What did they call me just now?"

"While you were asleep, I applied for a military title on your behalf."

Colonel Huo sat there, looking even more haggard than his patient.

Ji He was a little confused, so he lowered his head and said nothing.

The two were silent for a while. The embarrassment was like a gravity that pressed down on Alpha and Beta, making it hard for them to breathe.

Huo Yubai thought that as long as Ji He woke up, he would have a lot to say to him, but now he couldn't say a word.

"Such a jump?"

Ji He thought that he might have just recovered from a serious illness, and his brain was not working well. He counted on his fingers and found that there were four more ranks from sergeant to first class sergeant major, plus second lieutenant and first lieutenant.

I skipped six levels in total.

Such a promotion speed is extremely rare in the entire federal military.

It can be said that his military rank was promoted rapidly.

"Your efforts in the battle of Capital Star were worth it."

"There is also the Federal Medal of Honor. If you recover quickly, you should be able to go to the ceremony in person."

The Federal Medal of Honor is not something that ordinary soldiers can get.

After hearing this, even if Ji He was a fool, he should know how much effort Colonel Huo put into this.

In response, Ji He said solemnly: "Thank you, Colonel Huo."

Huo Yubai pursed his lips and asked slowly: "Why don't you call me Colonel?"

There is only one word difference between Colonel and Colonel Huo, but Ji He's tone made him feel a little strange.

"We are not just a colonel and his subordinates."

When Alpha said this, every word seemed to be squeezed out, and he even revealed a somewhat aggrieved expression.

This reminded Ji He, and he continued, "According to the regulations, a lieutenant cannot be a subordinate."

"Colonel Huo, remember to find the right person as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Huo Yubai felt a sinking feeling in his heart. He felt like he had no words to express his grievances and no place to use his strength.

"Ji He, I have something to say to you."

Ji He's eyes widened, and confusion was written all over his pupils. He seemed to have a premonition of what the other party would say, and waved his hand and said, "I'm tired."

"I like you."

Colonel Huo came over and, fearing that Ji He had not heard him, repeated what he should have told him long ago.

"I like you."

"Colonel Huo," Ji He was stunned for two seconds, then slowly said, "I don't understand why you are saying this to me."

"You deceived me and used me before, but you believed in me and protected me during the war that just ended."

"Let's just write it off between us."

Colonel Huo had already started to frown when he heard the first word "you". When the words "wipe out the name" came out, he felt that he had been completely sentenced to death.

"We work together in the federal military, and you have helped me. I will do my best to do whatever you want."

Ji He's words were very high-sounding and respectful, without any sense of inappropriateness or offense.

In fact, at the very beginning, Ji He, as a subordinate, always spoke to Colonel Huo in this way.

But why didn't Huo Yubai feel that Ji He's words would make him so uncomfortable before? It was so uncomfortable that he was heartbroken.

Looking at Beta's indifferent face, panic instantly swept through every corner of Alpha's heart.

He didn't even dare to ask Ji He if he didn't like him anymore.

"I was too anxious."

"You just woke up. Are you hungry? I'll get you some nutritional supplements."

"Would you like some water? Cold or warm? I'd rather have it warm."

Colonel Huo in front of him became rambling, his sentences were disorganized and jumping.

This was the first time Ji He saw him like this, so he had to reiterate that he wanted to rest and lay down again.

He was not lying just now. He was really tired and fell asleep quickly.

Before Ji He fell asleep, he felt someone carefully tucked in the quilt for him.

Reality told him that this person was Huo Yubai.

But reason reminded him that there was no reason for Colonel Huo to do this.

In short, the other party's condition was too abnormal, so abnormal that Ji He felt like he was still dreaming.

During this time, Ji He was recovering step by step, and the capital planet was also carrying out post-war reconstruction work in an orderly manner.

The smoking twin towers have been restored to their original state and are still the landmark buildings in the center of the capital.

The pheromone research center, which was most severely damaged by the enemy, can now carry out various experiments normally.

“My data.”

"You don't have no backup."

"Yeah, I have to do it again. What a disaster."

The Alphas on the Capital Planet were the first to receive the antibody vaccine against the X-Virus.

The medical team led by Dr. Zhong finally finished their work on this side, and were then notified to assist other planets in carrying out epidemic prevention work.

Although Zhong Wenxi is not a doctor in the Federal Army, he participated in many confidential tasks this time and even replaced the work that originally belonged to Ascle.

She is truly the No. 1 model worker.

Zhong Wenxi arrived at the subordinate hospital and happened to run into Colonel Huo who was turned away.

"Colonel?"

Colonel Huo saw Dr. Zhong, stood up and introduced Zhong Wenxi to Gu Chaowen beside him.

"Hello."

The two shook hands.

Gu Chaowen was a person who would make a few jokes when he saw someone good-looking, but when facing the doctor in a white coat in front of him, he put aside his bad behavior.

A few people stood in the corridor and chatted for a while.

Even after Dr. Zhong walked away, Gu Chaowen's affectionate peach blossom eyes were still fixed on him.

"You seem to be having a good time chatting with people."

Colonel Huo's voice was lukewarm.

Lieutenant Gu at the side had the leisure to make a joke, saying, "Why, are you jealous?"

"After all, she is your destined one."

Gu Chaowen originally thought that Colonel Huo would say that he was "bored", after all, this man often answered this kind of question in this way.

"Don't talk nonsense."

"This is not good for me or Dr. Zhong."

"And I don't want Ji He to misunderstand me."

Good guy, Gu Chaowen just said one sentence, but it turned out to be so many words like this iron tree.

The power of love is amazing!

"Okay, okay, I'll shut up."

Gu Chaowen made a zipper-like motion to his mouth and continued, "You've been like living in a hospital these past few days."

"Has Lieutenant Ji forgiven you?"

Huo Yubai pursed his lips and said nothing.

Gu Chaowen knew something was wrong when he saw his expression, and continued to ask, "Didn't you tell him that you like him?"

"Yes."

"But he didn't believe it."

Colonel Huo was chased by both sides, and his eyeballs were bloodshot. He rubbed his eyes with his hands.

It looks terrible.

Gu Chaowen looked like a playboy, but he had never been in love, and he didn't dare to give random advice to his childhood friend. If Ji He suddenly disappeared again, he thought Huo Yubai would definitely go crazy, and he would suffer as well.

He turned around and thought of another question, and reminded: "Where is Admiral Huo?"

"What will you do if he still objects?"

Huo Yubai's expression became very serious. He had already played cards with his grandfather before Ji He woke up.

The lesson of blood and tears told him that he should not lie or escape, and whether his family agreed or not, he just wanted to be with Ji He.

"Whether he accepts it or not, I will only have one lover."

Strangely enough, Huo Yingzhan actually acquiesced to his choice.
