Chapter 93: There will be no fewer days of sleepless nights
The vibration from the heavy warehouse door opening caused the messily placed boxes to fall, and the organs and body parts inside the boxes rolled all over.
The tall figure in the lead covered his nose and muttered, "Shouldn't these be sent to the incinerator? Why are they piled up in this abandoned cold storage? The temperature is still so high! Can't you lower it a little? It stinks."
The subordinate behind him spoke up, "Dr. Mullen, you're so busy you might not realize it. Lately, there's been too much waste in the Sixth Lab's consumables. All the incinerators are running, and they're overwhelmed. The staff there are so tired every day, they're all piled up here for the time being."
The tall figure, Dr. Mullen, tutted. "It's those bloody, aesthetically pleasing guys again. What else do they do besides setting off fireworks?! We've been researching this for so many years, and we've given them so many supplies, yet there's still no progress. I don't know why the boss keeps giving them so much funding."
After complaining, he said impatiently, "Go in and see if my little baby is hiding in there. If not, get out of here. This is disgusting."
As he spoke, he took two steps back, fearing that he would get stained by the blood that had already melted and flowed out of the plastic bag. His three-dimensional eyebrows and eyes under the light, his snow-white coat, and his mental power surging due to his unstable emotions, all revealed his identity as a high-level male insect.
The subordinates following behind him received the order and rushed into the cold storage. Because there were too many people, there were always unlucky ones who accidentally stepped on the internal organs and body parts that rolled on the ground. In addition, their violent search soon filled the entire cold storage with the smell of blood and corpses.
"Ugh..." The first one vomited.
Then there was a chorus of “vomiting” sounds.
In an instant, the cold storage, which already had a complex smell, became even more fragrant. The killing power was comparable to that of a light and heat bomb, and one bomb could make them all feel extremely happy.
These strongly clinging odors were carried into the corridor through the open door and drifted out along the fresh air system, quickly causing complaints from the researchers working normally nearby. Dr. Mullen was so irritated that he went back to take a shower.
As soon as the boss left, the unlucky subordinates who were vomiting all over the floor due to the stench of the corpse that spread for ten miles also left. They left in such a hurry that they didn't even notice that the door was not closed tightly.
The smell continued to spread through the tiny gaps, and all the researchers and employees working near the cold storage were unable to work. Some left cursing, while others sent communications to the incinerator, demanding in harsh words that they must deal with the things in the cold storage immediately.
Soon, there was no more movement outside the cold storage. The figure in the exhaust duct finally fell out of the duct. Because of the low temperature in the duct, his body was a little stiff, and it took a while for him to recover.
He looked around at the mess, carefully avoiding the numerous body parts, internal organs and vomit, found a relatively clean box to hide in, endured the discomfort, closed his eyes and rested.
He had to wait for the incinerator workers to arrive before trying to find a way to survive.
He covered his wrist tightly, and under his skin was a signal transmitter and an experimental data that his companion had exchanged his life for.
His companions have already sacrificed their lives, so he must find a way to send the information out so that the admiral can know everything here.
When the incinerator staff received the news, they urgently assigned an employee to come over wearing protective clothing and a gas mask, remotely controlling a huge tool cart.
When the employee saw that the door was not closed tightly, he cursed loudly before opening it and entering.
When I saw the mess on the ground, I wanted to take off my gas mask and hood and curse.
Because the incinerator has been too busy recently, he has to do the work of two employees in a group, which is already annoying enough. Now he has to clean up the mess made by this bunch of useless people who are more likely to cause trouble than to help. Even the Buddha would be so angry that he would curse.
The employee started to clean up while cursing. The remote-controlled tool vehicle forked the relatively intact boxes and the messy "parts" onto the vehicle, while he himself went to clean up the biological tissue that was already stuck on the ground.
When I finished my work, an hour had passed. I just straightened up and everything went black in front of my eyes. I knew nothing.
A moment later, an employee in protective clothing came out with a tool cart controlled by remote control. However, the protective clothing on his body seemed to be ill-fitting and a little tight.

At night, Nan Qi was sleeping soundly in Bai's arms when he was suddenly lifted up by a force. He opened his eyes drowsily, and habitually squeezed Bai's thin waist with his hands before he woke up.
He saw Bai looking at the message popping up on the military terminal with a serious expression, turned over and turned on the bedside lamp, and asked softly, "What's wrong? What happened?"
Bai didn't answer. He quickly browsed the message and made a video call to Mellon.
While waiting for the call to be connected, he got up from the bed. Nan Qi followed him and took out the ironed military uniform from the cloakroom.
At this moment, the video was connected and Mellon's sleepy face appeared on the virtual screen in mid-air.
When he saw Nan Qi actually helping Bai put on his clothes, he wailed, "Bai, you called me on video late at night just to show off your affection in front of me, right? There's no such thing as dog abuse. Please let me go."
"Mellon, something happened, come to the military headquarters immediately." Bai said with a serious face.
Melon saw that Bai was not joking, so he responded immediately and turned off the communication. He got out of bed, dressed quickly, and drove the aircraft to the military headquarters at lightning speed.
On this side, Bai Ye put on his military uniform with the help of Nan Qi.
At the entrance, he looked at Nan Qi who was sending him off in his pajamas, kissed Nan Qi's lips, and whispered, "Wait until I come back, I'll tell you when I come back."
Nan Qi nodded, straightened Bai's collar, and pushed him: "Go, I'll wait for you."
Bai looked at Nan Qi deeply, then turned and walked out.
Nan Qi walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and watched Bai fly out in the aircraft before returning to the room.
There was still Bai's warmth on the bed, and Nan Qi leaned against Bai's seat, lost in thought.
Bai was browsing the message without telling him, but since it was a message received by the military terminal, he didn't go over to read it.
However, he and Nan Qi were close, and he saw some of it out of the corner of his eye. A few words allowed him to piece together some of the information.
The seven words "sacrifice", "infiltrate", "request to continue undercover", "sixth laboratory", and "incinerator" should be related to the missing female soldier.
One of the two missing female soldiers died, and the other one infiltrated the inner circle by chance. He requested to continue undercover. This sixth laboratory might be the place where the female soldiers were sacrificed. As for the incinerator...
Nan Qi sighed. For such an unethical laboratory to be hidden so well, there must be a way to deal with the corpses, and this incinerator is the channel for dealing with the corpses.
Bai was in such a hurry to go to the military headquarters, probably to deal with this matter.
This female soldier must have sent out some information, and the information was so important that Bai had to take it seriously. He didn't even have time to explain it to him.
"I hope everything goes well." Nan Qi was a little worried and couldn't sleep. After thinking about it, he got up and went to the room on the second floor.
Pushing open the door, two game cabins were placed side by side. Nan Qi walked over and opened one. Just as he was about to lie down in it, Lily flew in with her beautiful little wings flapping, carrying a tray that was bigger than him.
There was a glass of lemonade on the tray. The lemons were bought by Nan Qi from the plant tribe because they were too sour and the insect tribe, who lacked food culture, would not use them.
"Nan Qi, Bai asked me to make you a cup of honey lemon water and let you drink it before going to sleep. I went to your room to look for you, but you weren't there. It turns out you wanted to play games secretly."
Lily flew in front of Nan Qi, staring at him with her jewel eyes: "Go back to bed, or I'll tell on you."
Nan Qi: “…”
It was the first time that Nan Qi was threatened by such a cute little thing. He felt very fresh. He reached out and touched its little tentacles, then took the tray it was holding and said with a smile, "Okay, I understand. Thank you, Lily."
"You're welcome," Lily happily turned around and came behind Nan Qi, pushing Nan Qi with her little feet, "Go back to sleep quickly, Bai will be back tomorrow, Bai doesn't let you worry, it's a good thing."
Nan Qi was pushed by this powerful robot bug, and his plan to kill time in the game had to be shelved.
He was pushed all the way to the bedroom, drank the honey lemon water that Bai Jiao had given him under Lily's supervision, and then lay down covered with a blanket.
Lily nodded in satisfaction, her gemstone eyes lit up, and with a click, a photo was actually taken.
Nan Qi was surprised: "Lily, why are you taking pictures?"
Lily said, "Give it to Baifa. Lily has carried out his orders well and has also taken good care of Nanqi's health."
Nan Qi: “…” He is really conscientious.
Nan Qi was completely defeated by the serious Lily and could only close his eyes obediently, but he heard the sound of flapping wings, and then the pillow felt a slight dent.
He opened his eyes and met Lily's gemstone eyes.
“…”
Nan Qi was speechless: "Lily, I promise, I won't sneak off to play games, you don't have to supervise me here."
Lily flapped her wings to express her refusal. When Nan Qi wanted to say something else, Lily's bright eyes had gone out and she went to standby.
Nan Qi was almost laughed at by this little thing. He couldn't hit it, and it wanted to complain but couldn't be coaxed out. The little thing was too cunning, so he could only be sealed in bed and lie there.
But he really couldn't sleep. Every time he closed his eyes, he could only think of the secret room in the candy store, Bai's fragile side, and the side that was still thinking about asking Lily to take care of him even when he was anxious, as well as the happiness of meeting Marshal Ai You and the loss when they parted. His heart was painful, warm, sour and bitter, and for the first time he felt a desire for power.
If he had a high status and great power, Bai wouldn't have suffered so much.
Ultimately, it was because he was too useless and his foundation was too shallow. He had to find a way to solve this problem, otherwise he would probably have many sleepless nights in the future.
Without the female monarch in his arms, he felt a little cold. Nan Qi turned over, and Lily, who was lying on the pillow, fell off the pillow and turned over with her six legs facing the sky.
Lily, whose phone was thrown off, said: "..."
If you can't afford to provoke it, you can afford to avoid it. Can't it just stay away from this unsatisfied male insect?
Lily tried to turn herself over, moved a little further away from Nan Qi, and took another photo of Nan Qi's back. This time, she remembered to turn off the sound, not letting Nan Qi know, and then sent it out before entering the standby mode again.
At the military headquarters, in Bai's office, Mellon, Lenk, and the others gathered. Bai pointed to the hidden message in the last sentence of the message and said, "They've already set their sights on Nan Qi."
