Chapter 128 [Extra] Dragon Boat Festival
——Irresponsible Extra|Dragon Boat Festival Theater|After the main story ends——

Aboard the U.S.S. Giant Whale, in the navigation room.
They had just passed a huge newborn galaxy rift. When all communications on the Giant Whale returned to normal, Su Xi looked at the quantum clock and found that the "Dragon Boat Festival" date marked had passed.
She habitually felt guilty for a moment, but then she realized that her mentality was wrong! This time it was work! Serious, important work! She didn't cancel his date for the sake of beauty or any other reason.
Su Xi encouraged herself, then returned to the room to dial Fitzgerald's holographic communication. The "Behemoth" had been out for a long time.
However, as soon as she opened the door, she was overwhelmed by half the room full of packages.
Kolot, who had just returned to the Mega Whale after hosting a scientific research meeting in Xindu, happened to pass by. He laughed and said, "When the Mega Whale crossed the galaxy rift, there was no signal and no interstellar transmission. These things can only be transported here with my supply ship... Haha! There are a lot! Take your time to unpack them!"
"Oh! There is a special package that requires a genetic code, a mental password, and an iris recognition triple password. You are asked to open it 'alone'."
"Hahaha!" Collot laughed, shook his head and walked away.
Su Xi nodded and said thank you, then began to let the housekeeping robot help sort the packages. Most of these were personal gifts sent by omegas or betas with whom they had a good relationship. As for those that were more polite, they were always handled and responded to by the Foreign Affairs Department.
She took out the ones from Lan Ya, Asay and the others and opened them herself. As expected, they were several crookedly wrapped rice dumplings. Asay attached a letter saying that they were rice varieties promoted by Ceres. Su Xi tasted them and surprisingly found them to be quite good.
Lan Ya's was a pendant that symbolized peace, with beautiful silk threads wrapped around the crystal diamond-shaped pendant. Su Xi also took one out and planned to hang it in front of the workbench in the navigation room.
then--
It was time to open the special package. Su Xi looked at the large pink box with a bow in front of him. There was only a low-key personal mark on the ribbon when it was opened. This indicated that he had made it himself.
"It won't be food again, will it?" Su Xi felt a little uneasy. The interstellar version of glutinous rice balls he made last time were... really hard to describe.
After deciphering the codes layer by layer, she opened the package.
In the beautiful crystal box, quietly lying on the velvet base was a...Five Poison Button woven with colorful silk threads? Su Xi was a little surprised. She reached out and touched the "genetic fingerprint" identification button on the crystal box.
The box was opened, and the beautiful Five Poison Buckle was exposed in the air. The jade-like material was emitting an extremely beautiful blue glow, but Su Xi blushed instantly.
With a snap, the omega, whose face was red as smoke, reached out and closed the box reflexively.
Strange, no wonder I had to specifically ask for it to be opened 'alone'.
Her heart was pounding, and then Su Xi realized a little later that she was in her room. The living facilities of the "Giant Whale" were much better than those of the research station. Of course, the air filtration system was also very perfect in processing pheromones. All kinds of privacy were absolutely guaranteed!
With a red face and trembling fingers, Su Xi opened the beautiful pink crystal box again.
The familiar pheromone scent of her own alpha diffused softly and gently again, with a passionate top note and a hint of flirtatious stimulation, and then the hot and straightforward middle note came over her face, entwining her sensitive glands in a lingering and domineering manner.
Su Xi's face turned even redder. Several times of AO intercourse made her more and more sensitive, both in terms of physical touch and the ability to recognize his pheromones and emotions. She easily "read" his silent language.
'Miss you.'
"I miss you very much."
Then there was a handwritten note with very concise instructions.
'Put it on for me. Fitz'
These powerful characters, at the end of the last stroke, bend slightly to the upper right, carrying an indescribable lingering and teasing feeling.
Su Xi had no choice but to tie the Five Poison Buckle around her wrist with a blushing face.
However, when her delicate fingertips touched the beautiful round buckle with delicate texture and deep color, the icy blue mental defense shield at her fingertips flashed and disappeared.
Su Xi was slightly stunned.
The aftertaste of alph essence still lingered in the air, and the mellow aftertaste lingered. The most intense part of the smell was on her wrist.
Su Xi finally understood and couldn't help but frowning slightly, then smiling.
She thought for a moment, then lowered her head and gently placed a kiss on the round jade buckle.
Really! Didn't he feel any pain when he pulled it out abruptly at that time?
She complained about the pain.

New Capital. House of Lords. A heated debate is going on.
The content to be decided today is a bill on the distribution of post-disaster resources. Several parties with different interests have gone through several rounds of bargaining. They are just waiting for the final decision.
Fitzgerald was sitting on a high seat at this moment, listening attentively with an expressionless face, occasionally making a few brief comments.
From the perspective of the people below, the interim executive's expression was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry, and it was hard to tell whether he was biased towards any side.
At this time, when discussing racial rights, a Beta Equal Rights Party stood up and spoke passionately, and the spokespersons of the old aristocrats who benefited from the old order of "A rights supremacy" also jumped out and refuted more fiercely.
It seemed that the two groups had already started grabbing each other's collars and were about to start fighting.
The speculative faction who had been paying close attention to the absolute ruler on the high seat, discovered that
The interim ruler, who was deeply rooted in people's hearts with his cold expression and iron-blooded dictatorial behavior, actually smiled?
Even though it was only a fleeting, very subtle smile, to those wall-riders who were intent on studying the emperor's intentions and wished to archive every expression, every word, and every movement of the executive officials for careful study, it was a huge warning signal!
They all focused their attention on the two factions that were arguing with each other!
They found it very difficult to understand. As the beneficiary of "A supremacy", could it be that this powerful and authoritarian ruler actually leaned towards the Beta equal rights faction? The long-standing clues came together at this moment. They exchanged glances and felt that they had grasped the truth.
Then these speculative factions, ready to fight, decided to join the fight between the 'B power faction' and the 'A power faction'.
The situation was out of control for a while.

But what is the truth?
Fitzgerald, sitting on the high seat, seemed expressionless, but he was actually very annoyed by such time-wasting meetings. However, judging from the current situation, Albert's reputation was not enough to suppress all the factions with different interests, so he had to sit back and make the decision.
But on such a boring afternoon, the skin on the back of my neck near the gland felt slightly cool.
Fitzgerald could not help but smile.
He knew she got it.
That was the scale with his spiritual power attached to it, which he pulled out from the back of his neck near the gland when he missed her so much and couldn't bear it. He knew very well that the route of the Giant Whale would reach the edge of the largest galaxy bubble in Aquila before the Dragon Boat Festival. In his prediction, she would definitely not be able to come back before the Dragon Boat Festival.
With the psychological expectation, although he still missed her, he was not too disappointed. Waiting has become his habit. As long as she is still within his reach, "waiting" will only be a slightly bitter but long-lasting sweet drink.
Therefore, he used his mental power to polish the thick bone scale into a jade button, and gave it away with the help of the Dragon Boat Festival custom she shared.
Hopefully she'll like his taste, and -
Come back soon.
Fitzgerald was thinking absentmindedly, and then suddenly his eyes dimmed.
The coolness on the back of my neck instantly turned into a burning sensation.
The polished bone scale he sent out was actually a part of his body. After it was attached with mental power, it could sense her condition and movements to a certain extent.
Amid the clamor of argument in the House of Lords, Fitzgerald stood up.
He tapped the table with his fingers. The tapping sound was not loud, but the factions in the House of Representatives who were fighting each other heard it very clearly.
"I disagree with the gender bill that equates the rights of Beta with those of Alpha. The focus of this bill is 'equal rights'. In order to support the disadvantaged sex, it is necessary to increase the weight appropriately."
"The rights of omegas should not be separated from those of genders A and B. Please ask the Senate Secretariat to draw up an agenda for discussion."
"It has been decided. Please continue to discuss the specific weights."
"Albert will be responsible for your progress from now on."
"The meeting is adjourned."
Fitzgerald quickly resolved the messy dispute with just a few words and turned away.
The entire House of Lords was silent at first, and then became more excited.
"Secretary General Albert! Please tell me what the term executor means?!"
"Albert!"
Albert, who tried to sneak away, was caught by the crowd with a bitter face, and continued to engage in endless verbal arguments with the group of people.

After leaving the House of Lords, Fitzgerald quickly got into the shuttle and was about to call her, but unexpectedly, Su Xi called first.
"Fitz!" Su Xi, blushing, showed him the Five Poison Buckle on her wrist a little embarrassedly during the holographic communication. The thin colorful silk threads made her slender wrist look pitiful.
"I like it very much. I put it on."
"We have explored the edge of the new galaxy BW-78A. The Mega Whale will stay in this galaxy bubble for a while to collect samples, and I," she smiled, "will return with the supply ship that is carrying Korot's supplies."
"I'll go over when you need the next leg of navigation."
Fitzgerald was slightly stunned, then he couldn't help but smile, "Very good. I will pick you up at the port in person."
They both looked at each other with a smile, and could see their longing for each other.
From Su Xi's perspective, the red-haired alpha in a formal suit had a straight hairstyle and looked extremely serious. Looking at the scene behind him, he looked like he was taking a breath in the most serious occasion. But the alpha scent wrapped around her wrist and lingering around her neck was almost another expression of naked seduce.
This made her blush.
"Then, I'm hanging up now."
Fitzgerald looked at the life-size holographic projection of his omega, who was unusually shy and seductive. His eyes darkened again and again, and when he saw the thin blue piece on her wrist, he smiled knowingly.
"Wait," he called her, then moved closer and gently held her shadow with both hands, "Look up."
Slightly commanding tone.
Su Xi looked up obediently, and then she saw the red-haired alpha lowering his eyes and looking at her with an expression. Fitzgerald said seriously: "If you accept a gift, you should give a gift in return."
Su Xi: “Ah?”
"But, but I came back in a hurry and didn't have time to prepare." Su Xi felt guilty and began to stutter as she spoke.
Hearing her say this, the alpha in the holographic image still had a smile in his eyes, and a virtual kiss less than a centimeter away fell on her lips.
His voice was hoarse as he reminded her, "I insist on your 'return gift'. You can think of a way, right?"
Su Xi understood immediately, and her face, which had just returned to normal due to guilt, turned red again.
"See you later."
Fitzgerald politely said goodbye and then cut off the call. Su Xi was left at the other end of the call, staring at the message "Your communication partner has left the link" flashing. She was stunned for a while.
The red-haired alpha on the other side stroked his lips, his heart full of anticipation.
Today was a very smooth day. Not only did we finish the annoying meeting early, but she also came back midway.
This is truly a joyful festival.
