Chapter 37 Rose Petals

Pei Du's finger massage was slightly slow. He paused for a moment and continued, "Are you sure it's a military man?"

Sheng Shi's nose wrinkled with envy. He moved his face away from Pei Du's abdomen and opened his right hand to reveal the cloth that he had been holding in his palm.

"I tore it off him." Sheng Shixian's complexion looked much better in these few minutes. Although his lips were white, they became more rosy over time.

Pei Du looked at Sheng Shixian's palm. He picked up the cloth. The cloth was completely black, as if Sheng Shixian had torn it from the man's chest. There was a curved dagger clearly sewn on it with platinum thread.

Today, the military commanders in charge of various cities all wear this iconic clothing with a dagger pattern.

It seems that the person who came to his house to investigate is a person of high rank.

Pei Du rubbed the blood stains on the platinum thread with his fingers, and his movements slowly slowed down.

Sheng Shixian's hands, feet and even mouth were restrained, there was blood on his clothes, but there was no wound on his body... How did he fight with others?

"Military people are difficult to deal with, and hiding alien species is also a serious crime." Pei Du heard Sheng Shi's envious voice and shifted his gaze to him.

Sheng Shi looked up at Pei Du enviously. His face was clean and there was a hint of purple under his eyes. "You are still an experimenter. If you are found out, you will be sentenced to at least 20 years in prison."

"So what?" Pei Du asked.

It's not like he hasn't done this kind of thing before.

His father hid his mother, and he hid his envy.

It was the same villa, the same layout, and now, the same thing was happening inside that had happened before.

Sheng Shixian narrowed his eyes, and he pulled Pei Du's hand over, letting him continue to stroke his coccyx. Pei Du paused for a few seconds, and then bent down according to Sheng Shixian's force.

"You can hand me over, and I will take full responsibility." Sheng Shixian held Pei Du with one hand, and his lips pressed against the medical patch on the side of Pei Du's ear, and the heat moistened the patch and penetrated deep inside.

He said softly, "I am just an alien species. I will die if I die. You should live longer."

Pei Du thought that he had died seventy years earlier than Sheng Shixian in his previous life. Sheng Shixian lived to be ninety-three years old. When he died, the grass on Pei Du's grave was probably taller than others.

"If I hand you over, you won't be angry," Pei Du skipped those questions that were unclear about truth and always complicated, and asked.

Sheng Shixian still looked up, his black hair spread out on both sides, and a smile appeared in his black eyes. "Yes."

"I'm going to bite you to death."

Pei Du: “…”

Then what are you talking about?

"Don't worry, I will live a long time, at least a hundred years old." Pei Du said casually. He pressed the red marks on Sheng Shixian's back with his fingertips and continued, "You will live a long time too. You have eaten so much of my food, so you will slowly give it back to me in the future."

Sheng Shixian understood the meaning of Pei Du's words. He curled his lips and said, "Stingy."

"You are not as stingy as me." Pei Du pulled his hand back. "Change your clothes later. They smell of blood."

Sheng Shi looked at him enviously: "Where are you going to sleep after changing?"

The bullet holes on the wall were still there, and the glass fragments were scattered on the ground. Pei Du had not yet gone to the bathroom, but just by looking at the several spots of blood at the bathroom door, Pei Du knew that the situation in the bathroom was not good.

Sheng Shixian sat on the sofa without moving. His eyes wandered around the second floor for a moment and then fell on Pei Du.

Pei Du easily accepted Sheng Shixian's hint and said, "If you sleep with me, you will have to wear a gag."

Sheng Shixuan: “… Yeah.”

Pei Du was helpless. Sheng Shi was envious of the fact that he had to wear a gag. He had resisted it at first, but now he accepted it without hesitation.

Sheng Shixian picked up the crutch beside him, deliberately washed the almost dried blood on his palm, and walked to the sink with Pei Du.

"bump."

There was a slight knock from the door.

Sheng Shi's ears moved slightly, and the coldness in his eyes rose. He grabbed Pei Du's sleeve and said, "Who is it?"

Pei Du stopped immediately. His hearing was not as developed as Sheng Shixian's, so he could not hear any strange or special sounds. He only felt that Sheng Shixian's grip on him was getting stronger and stronger.

Sheng Shi frowned enviously. Within a few seconds after he finished speaking, the footsteps outside the door quickly became lighter and lighter, retreating towards the distant road.

"Someone is here." Sheng Shixian said.

As he spoke, he pulled Pei Du behind him, not giving him a chance to move forward. Sheng Shixun leaned on his crutches and slowly approached the gate. "Don't go. I'll go."

Pei Du was stunned for a moment. He walked behind Sheng Shixian and found that Sheng Shixian was now walking much more steadily.

Although he still relied on crutches, he no longer staggered like before. Even his back, which sometimes hunched over, straightened up, casting a thin shadow under the light.

Sheng Shixian walked behind the gate. All the surveillance cameras in the villa were destroyed. They didn't know what was happening outside and could only rely on Sheng Shixian's sharp ears to eavesdrop on every move outside.

"No one is here." Sheng Shixian turned his head and said seriously, "There are no bombs either."

Pei Du: “…”

If there is a bomb they will all die.

Pei Du said: "Listen to the footsteps, there were probably a few people outside before."

Sheng Shi was jealous of the silence. He recalled for a few seconds and said, "One, there are no others."

It was not known whether the person outside the door came with the military. Sheng Shixian was concentrating on dealing with the person who climbed in through the wall, but he did not expect that there was someone lurking at the door.

But that person hadn't done anything out of line or offensive to them for such a long time, and maybe he was just eavesdropping.

Sheng Shixian withdrew his thoughts. He asked Pei Du to stand behind him and went forward to open the door of the villa.

The air was silent and there was not a sound. Pei Du's nerves were tense and his breathing became lighter unconsciously.

It was pitch black outside. The white light of a street lamp was shining down on the road in the distance, illuminating the shadows of the dense and overlapping trees around. The sound of insects chirping came faintly from the grass, and Pei Du could vaguely smell the fragrance of flowers again.

It was like the bouquet of roses he had taken to the laboratory for testing, mixed with incense of unknown origin, the intertwined smell made people dizzy.

Pei Du covered his mouth and nose, walked to the side, and pressed the light control button installed at the door.

The darkness accumulated at the doorway faded away in an instant, and the scene outside was exposed under the light, revealing the situation on the ground.

Pei Du walked forward, looked down in the diffuse fragrance, and saw large rose petals spread at his door.

The rose petals were bright red, perhaps they were freshly picked, and there were still small dewdrops on them that had gathered in the cold night.
