Chapter 76
Neither of them spoke for several minutes.
Lin Han could hear the shouts of students returning late not far away, expressing their own opinions.
I heard the sound of TV coming from the living room. It seemed to be Guru's favorite plot, where the scumbag alpha watched his former lover find a new love with tears in his eyes.
I could hear the occasional rustling sound coming from the communicator.
The only thing missing was the other person's voice.
He Yunting always did a good job of restraining himself, breathing lightly, and it didn't take long for him to calm down completely. He even cleaned himself up when Lin Han didn't say anything.
But the dirt can be easily wiped clean, but the smell in the cockpit cannot.
Lin Han opened his mouth, but no sound came out immediately.
Hearing the sound of the metal buckle turning, Lin Han slowly began to feel a sense of embarrassment.
What did he do...
Lin Han's face was already a little red after the heat faded, and he moved his legs awkwardly, even touching a little wetness.
“…………”
Omegas are different from alphas, their bodies are designed for picking, and although the estrus and susceptible periods are essentially similar, requiring marking, caressing and intercourse between alphas, there are of course differences in their specific implementation.
In the absence of pheromones, generally speaking, it is just a desire to be owned and a desire to occupy.
Therefore, Lin Han was not like He Yunting who could get obvious relief after simple frontal release. Even though he had a release before the other party, he still felt an unspeakable sense of emptiness because of this release.
For the first time, he felt embarrassed about his omega physique.
It turns out that one day I will be like this. As long as they are omegas, they are all the same in essence.
The warm current somewhere in his body had not yet stopped, and his hands were sticky, but he lay on the bed as if he had given up on himself.
He Yunting must be leaning on the driver's seat now, and the expression on his face must have returned to normal long ago.
I wonder if he took off his military jacket or just covered it carelessly, if it was no longer so meticulous, and if there would be more emotion in the originally clean and neat lines. The wrinkles after the sweep.
Where his hands were placed, and whether his eyes were less cold at a certain moment.
Was it at that moment that he was alone in his mind and body?
Just now, he was so focused on nervously inducing the conversation that he realized his throat was dry only now that he slowly came to his senses.
And more importantly...
Now the entire mecha must be filled with the scent of ebony mixed with a light fishy smell, so strong that it could drown a person, and it carries that person's unique scent.
Lin Han just licked his lips unconsciously, and then he heard He Yunting's voice finally: "Mr. Lin."
Lin Han froze in his tracks, and was thankful that the video had been turned off. He paused before saying, "I'm here."
Thinking of what He Yunting had said just now, "You're so sweet," and then thinking of the other party's breathing that came through the light screen, Lin Han felt that he was happy too early.
I can only comfort myself by saying that fortunately he is not really in estrus.
Lin Han finally asked him: "So...are you feeling better?"
Even though what happened just now could indeed alleviate the alpha's discomfort to a great extent, Lin Han also knew that the susceptible period would not be so easily lifted.
But for He Yunting, it was enough.
"Yes." He Yunting said.
It seemed that his previous life was really boring and he had no desires. As long as he could get less than one-tenth of the normal sweetness, he could feel a satisfaction far greater than theirs.
As Lin Han thought about it, he couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
Then, it must be that he was suffering too much being alone, and meeting and kissing me might really be inevitable.
Two seconds later, He Yunting, who had turned off the video call on his own initiative, actually sent the invitation again.
Lin Han froze for a moment, looked down at his uncleaned body and sticky hands, and asked, "Why are you..."
Didn't you turn it off?
She had clearly told him that they could video chat anytime, but Lin Han was still feeling embarrassed after the aftertaste and just wanted to take a shower and bury himself in the quilt.
He was about to refuse when he heard He Yunting add, "I want to see you."
Not only was He Yunting unable to refuse him, but he also somehow agreed after the other party spoke so bluntly.
As soon as the light screen popped up again, Lin Han saw the person opposite him.
To his surprise, He Yunting was already dressed neatly again, and even the thin layer of sweat on his forehead was gone. The lights in the cockpit were not bright, and Lin Han could only see the epaulettes on his military uniform and his meticulous, focused expression.
Comparing himself at this moment, Lin Han's eyes flashed and he lowered his head a little.
"Are you shy?"
As expected of He Yunting, he always points out things directly regardless of the occasion.
Lin Han's ears turned red after hearing what he said, but she couldn't help but look at him. She could only raise her eyes reluctantly and wrinkled her nose and said, "What are you doing?"
Just after she finished speaking, she thought about He Yunting's straightforward train of thought, and then sighed and added: "This is my first time... like this, please let me take it slow."
"Yeah." The admiral readily accepted the offer and even apologized obediently, "I'm sorry."
Lin Han blinked and looked at the person in front of him.
What can be said about him?
"Forget it." Lin Han felt that her shyness just came and went quickly. Seeing that He Yunting had no intention of making fun of her, she simply took a tissue to wipe her hands, then slowly put on her pajamas in front of him and sat cross-legged. "I'm not angry."
"Can you tell me about the proton star?"
-
Taking into account that He Yunting still needed more rest during his susceptible period, and that they really hadn't yet gained a deep understanding of the situation, Lin Han didn't ask many questions, but just gave a few words of advice, looked at the person opposite, couldn't help but smile with his eyes curved, and then called his name.
Just called his name, nothing else.
After all, he can't ask when you will be back, nor can you nag him to be careful, and you can't interfere with his decisions and disrupt his plans.
But I still miss him very much.
As he was talking, he felt that his posture of sitting on the bed with his legs crossed was too serious, so he lazily snuggled back into the quilt and spoke to He Yunting with his head tilted.
After chatting for a few words in this posture, Lin Han rubbed his eyes and yawned.
Just as he was about to say goodbye to He Yunting, he heard the other party say "Go to bed early" but did not hang up the phone.
Knowing that this was also his reluctance which he was not good at expressing, Lin Han smiled at He Yunting, nodded without saying anything more.
"Mr. Lin." Just as he was about to hang up, He Yunting suddenly spoke again.
The tone of his voice was different from before. It didn't have the usual indifference, nor was it as hoarse as it was after the retreat just now.
Rather, it was a tone that could almost be described as brisk and gentle.
"Reach out your hand and touch your earlobe."
Lin Han didn't expect that in such a short period of time, after being straightforward once, this person actually started to learn again.
He did as he was told with a red face. His earlobes felt a little hot, but his fingertips felt a little cool.
Like the temperature of the other person's lips.
"——That's me kissing you, too."
"good evening."
-
After a short rest, the mecha formation set off again and headed straight for the central area of the proton star.
After crossing the dense rainforest, when they came into contact with the city again, they finally saw some changes from when they came.
Those horrifying scenes of deathly silence disappeared. Although there were not many people on the streets, at least there were still shops open, and the police responsible for maintaining peace were patrolling diligently.
The whole city seemed to be in a tense atmosphere, but still barely lively.
People's movements were normal, not stiff, and they no longer had the vertical pupil feature that we encountered when we came here.
When they saw the arrival of the special troops sent by the Empire, the ecstasy of seeing life finally appeared on their faces. Some children who had never seen large mechas were so excited that they waved to them continuously. Some sentimental people even shed tears the moment they saw the mechas.
They have been trapped for too long and they also need a new life.
The central city of Proton Star is not big, and it is considered the most economically developed area. Of course, if this kind of development situation were placed in the Empire, it would not even be as good as Area L.
Because they are basically all beta and there are no large-scale armies and mechas, the mechas currently used by Proton Star for self-defense and protection are almost all models that have been eliminated by the Empire's most basic formations, and their combat capabilities are extremely poor.
They did not stop and drove all the way to the Proton Star Central City Government.
After all, Xu Zhiheng couldn't hide forever, so Lu Anhe finally made up a reason for him to get involved, which could barely be considered as joining the team.
Even after arriving at the central city, it seemed that the government's communications were disrupted, and He Yunting was still unable to directly contact the leaders of Proton Star. Therefore, no one came to greet them until they arrived nearby.
The government building was quite impressive, but it did not have a special parking space for mechas like the Empire did, so they could only choose a suitable landing place nearby, and after confirming that the surrounding environment was safe, they could arrange for the soldiers to leave the mechas.
As soon as they landed, many people were still observing the environment in front of them. However, Xu Zhiheng, who had gotten off Lu An and the mecha, did not hesitate and walked towards He Yunting.
His hair seemed to be a little whiter than when He Yunting first met him. Perhaps it was the recent series of events that made him unable to stay out of it. The research results he discovered in the past were stolen after being sealed with great difficulty. Before he could figure out the truth behind it, the current incident happened. What was even more unacceptable to him was that the initiator of the idea was once his student.
"Admiral!" His voice was filled with sorrow and dissatisfaction, as if he still couldn't accept the massacre he had just experienced. "Why did you--"
"I understand your anger." He Yunting had known this would happen.
He spoke calmly, and dodged Xu Zhiheng's subconscious attempt to grab his hand. He took a step back and said without any emotion: "So, please understand my difficulties. Before there is definite evidence that they will not hurt anyone, that is the best choice."
Xu Zhiheng stood there, his chest heaving, as if he was trying to calm his emotions.
His scientific research may have been beneficial to mankind, but what lies before him now is such a bloody and cruel reality.
"...Okay." Xu Zhiheng's voice was a little dry. "No matter what, these are things that were once related to me. This is also the reason why I came here."
He spoke every word with great difficulty: "I never thought that one day these innocent people would lose their lives because of my research."
Until now, he still calls those creatures "people".
"I can't just watch them disappear wave after wave. They clearly..." Xu Zhiheng stopped talking for a while.
He couldn't help but fall into self-doubt and began to feel that all his research was wrong.
"Then, if those people still appear, please at least let me try to contact them..." His eyes were red, and he whispered, "Maybe I can save them, they may not..."
"Please."
He Yunting stood there and looked down at him, his eyes still cold, as if those words did not touch his heart at all: "I hope you know that ensuring your safety is much more important than studying these creatures that you don't know whether they are human or insect."
"But if there is the possibility you mentioned..." He Yunting turned around, "Then we should adapt to the situation."
Xu Zhiheng finally stopped arguing.
-
As he walked to the government headquarters building, He Yunting suddenly thought of something.
Lu Anhe had been in frequent contact with Xu Zhiheng during this period. He Yunting paused, then suddenly turned his head and asked, "Are there any other relevant materials about Xi Yuan's report?"
After hearing this, Lu Anhe immediately answered truthfully: "I'm not sure if there is any connection, but on your birthday three years ago, he attended a lecture with Professor Xu..."
Birthday?
"There's no such thing as a birthday..." It's just an ordinary day.
He Yunting found it strange that Lu Anhe would usually only talk to him about the specific date of a certain year and month, and would never mention any special dates, which were not easy to remember.
Lu Anhe seemed to be stunned for a moment before he immediately gave a new date.
It was indeed his birthday. He Yunting quickly recalled that day was the day of his internship that year. He had a good memory and could even recall the content of the internship that day.
It was indeed... a very ordinary day.
But He Yunting still frowned.
He suddenly remembered the question Lin Han had asked him jokingly before.
"You only remember what you want to remember, don't you?"
