Chapter 1
On the third day after traveling to the other world and the first evening after transferring to this aristocratic college, Lan Yexing squatted behind the huge sculpture fountain on campus, sticking his head out to stare at the skinny white kitten with blue eyes opposite him.
The dial on his wrist flickered with a cold fluorescent light and emitted a mechanical, low electronic sound: [The target Qiao You will continue to pass by here on his way to the library in the evening today and in the next week, and "accidentally" encounter three kind omegas who feed the white cat milk and dried fish]
[According to the data, Qiao You is a kind, enthusiastic and sincere person. He has a chance to be interested in equally kind people. Please prevent these three attack events from happening. ]
At this time, students were coming and going on the road beside the fountain. The white cat huddled tightly under the roadside flower bed, with its ears erect and its body tense. A young man with blue eyes, gray curly hair and delicate features squatted in front of it, first put down two plates, and then put milk and dried fish in them.
He has a frail figure and a sweet voice: "You're welcome. Come and eat, little kitty."
Under the reflection of the setting sun, this scene seemed even more peaceful and tranquil. Many tall students passing by were attracted and looked at the omega with admiration and appreciation.
Lan Yexing looked at the white cat that was still curled up tightly, then looked at the boy who was feeding the cat without paying attention to anyone around him, blinked, and said, "Is that the omega you mentioned?"
He looked no different from the young human males he had previously known.
Just as the system was about to answer, Lan Yexing had already stood up and walked towards the other side of the crowd. He quickly stopped under the drooping branches of the huge oak tree and leaned over to pat the omega on the shoulder.
The omega was startled, and when he turned around and saw Lan Yexing's harmless and innocent smile, he said "Huh?" with a pure look of confusion on his face: "You, you are..."
As he spoke, he looked at the people coming and going, as if he was anxiously looking for and identifying someone.
Lan Yexing did not answer this question. He just squatted beside the omega in a very familiar manner, blocking the other's sight.
Only when he got closer did he smell the sweet scent of black tea on the omega. It was different from the smell of perfume, as it seemed to be emanating from the skin.
Lan Yexing: Is this what is called... omega?
He didn't take this detail to heart, and naturally started a new topic: "Classmate, you are so kind that you even feed stray cats."
The Omega's face turned red with guilt, his eyes shifted awkwardly, and he kept saying "I, I" for a long time without saying anything else.
Lan Yexing didn't say anything. He glanced at the white cat and said, "But it's very likely that it can't hear you."
The innocent Omega was indeed led away. He tilted his head and smiled sweetly and asked, "Huh? Why?"
Lan Yexing: "White cats with blue eyes are likely to have genetic defects, usually hearing impairment. Moreover," he pointed at the milk carton and dried fish snack bag in the boy's hand with a very gentle and harmless look, "Cats are lactose intolerant. Drinking milk will cause gastrointestinal disorders and make them thinner. In addition, this kind of dried fish for human consumption is too salty and has many additives. It will increase the burden on cats' kidneys and is generally not recommended for cats."
Omega: "Oh, sorry, cats are not allowed in my family. I, I don't know about this-"
Lan Yexing suggested thoughtfully: "Why don't you buy some cat food and cat cans and come over to feed them tomorrow?"
Omega thought it made sense. Anyway, the person he was waiting for would pass by here on his way to Library No. 1 in the next week.
So he thanked Lan Yexing politely, and then left with an innocent and happy look. When he stood up, Lan Yexing accidentally saw the golden griffin emblem on his chest, and the griffin held a red crescent moon in its mouth.
Lan Yexing resigned himself to picking up the plates left by the omega.
He successfully solved the first strategy incident after coming to this world. After cleaning up, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the pitiful white cat that was almost curled up into a ball.
The system then spoke: [It is recommended that the host take it away. ]
There is only this one cat wandering around the sculpture fountain. Taking the strategy prop away means solving the remaining two strategy events at once.
Lan Yexing had thought of this a long time ago. He stood up and walked towards the starving white cat. Before the cat could get angry and run away, he scooped it up neatly and accurately and stuffed it into the canvas bag he was carrying.
With his back to the crowd, he took out his phone and searched for nearby pet hospitals. Suddenly, he paused and turned to look at the crowd:
The carved street lights on campus have been turned on, and students wearing expensive uniforms and exuding youthfulness are still coming and going. No one pays attention to him - after all, the system says that there are six genders in this world, and according to the classification, he is a male beta with no sense of existence.
But just now...
System: [What happened?]
Lan Yexing shrugged: "Nothing, it must be an illusion."
Somehow, he just felt that a strong presence of gaze stayed on him for a moment.
But this was his first day at this aristocratic high school, and he had been busy going through the admission process and interfering with the strategy event according to the system's instructions the entire day. He hadn't had a chance to get to know any of his classmates, including the target person, so it was impossible for anyone to pay special attention to him.
Lan Yexing didn't think too much. He stretched and walked towards the campus exit with the canvas bag on his back.
This aristocratic university is a private boys' school, and students are strictly prohibited from working part-time or going out outside the school except on holidays. If they need to go out to complete off-campus internships, they must apply for access cards from the relevant college leaders.
When Lan Yexing first learned this information, he complained about the strong sense of incongruity and weirdness of such a school: For example, it's a university, but they still separate admissions by gender? What's the point of having a boys' school when there are already six genders?
For example, although it has a noble title, it is still a university. Not only is it a boarding system, but it also prohibits students from going out? It would be ruined if students were locked up like this for four years during the important stage of building mature personalities and social relationships in college!
He had checked and found that no other university in the world was like this. This university was the only one that was special.
However, the geographical location here is superior. The royal palace is across a river from the block where the school is located. Although the school was established not long ago and many majors have not been developed, the hardware and software teachers are very strong. The various large families that have established cooperative relationships with the school provide very generous scholarships and various benefits. Therefore, even though the school system is weird and has caused a lot of controversy, there are also many outstanding civilian students gathered here.
Lan Yexing never let go of these incongruities, but he didn't dwell on them too much either.
When he arrived near the school gate, he looked up at the carved iron fence.
System: [Although there is no surveillance nearby, it is against the rules to climb over the wall and leave the school. ]
Lan Yexing said nonchalantly, "I follow the rules very well." He climbed up the fence swiftly and lightly, "But for me, there are many things that come before the rules."
Successfully left school.
…
The school is located in the Xingdu District, the innermost part of the city. Both sides of the street outside the school are planted with tall oak trees over a hundred years old. The building opposite is in the same Baroque style as the one inside the school. Due to the closed nature of the school, there are few pedestrians, and the atmosphere of the whole street is quaint, quiet and solemn.
Lan Yexing hailed a taxi standing on the roadside and took the cat to the nearest pet hospital.
After giving the cat a basic physical examination and deworming, he bought some cat food, cat cans and daily supplies for the cat, and took a taxi to a detached villa a few streets away from the school.
When he first came to the different world, he woke up in this villa. After learning the situation from the system, the system said that the villa now belonged to him and he could use it freely.
The location of the villa is very good, and the decoration is warm and comfortable, which is enough for him to live in comfortably. He would stay in school during non-holidays, and with this villa, he finally has a place to go during the holidays.
After entering the villa, the lights came on. Lan Yexing placed the cat bag he bought from the hospital on the soft carpet in the living room. The cat huddled in the innermost part like a skinny ball of fur. Its dark pupils were dilated as wide as possible as it stared at Lan Yexing, with no intention of coming out at all.
Lan Yexing didn't care. He got up and quickly prepared an area for the cat in the living room. He put clean warm water and cat food in the ceramic cat bowl, and prepared cat litter and a scratching board. Then, he spread the newly bought cashmere blanket on the sofa for the cat to step on and sleep in.
Finally, after checking the windows of his house, he half-knelt in front of the cat's bag again and looked at it gently and calmly.
Even though he knew it couldn't hear him, Lan Yexing said, "Pets are not allowed in the dormitory. I can only put you here."
"The doctor said you have three months left. You must try to take good care of yourself. I will come back once a day."
The cat's fur was still standing on end with vigilance, but Lan Yexing didn't care. He stood up swiftly and left the villa.
After going out, I was about to go to the intersection to take a taxi back to school, but I saw that someone happened to go out of the villa next door at this time.
He was a gentlemanly old man with silver hair, wearing a monocle, a simple-style tuxedo, and even wore spotless white gloves.
In the light of the wall lamp, he was trying to pick up a heavy Corgi dog with great effort, as if he was going to take the dog for a walk.
Lan Yexing looked at the steps under his feet and understood: the doors of the villas here are all built-in arched designs, and there are several steps under the porch. Dogs are prone to fractures or even paralysis if they climb too many steps, so dog-loving owners usually pick up their dogs when they encounter steps.
The old man seemed to be in a difficult situation today and couldn't lift the dog at all.
Lan Yexing had a good impression of people who loved pets, so without much hesitation, he went to the old man next door and said, "I'll help you carry it down."
The old man was startled when he saw the young man suddenly appear, and then he smiled: "It's really not okay for people to refuse to accept their age. I was able to hold him up yesterday. Please."
Lan Yexing nodded, picked up the dog, which was not at all shy, and carefully placed it under the steps.
The old man looked at the boy's uniform and his smile became more loving: "You are also a student of Xingdu University, right? My young master also goes to school there." He did not point out that the boy was violating school rules.
Lan Yexing smiled and said "hmm", but did not continue the topic. He just asked: "What will you do when you come back from walking the dog?"
The old man: "It's okay, I'll ask someone to pick me up when I come back. Thank you so much, classmate."
Lan Yexing politely said "You're welcome", then said goodbye to the old man and returned to school.
…
The school dormitory was curfew at 8 p.m., and Lan Yexing entered the dormitory building of his department almost on time.
After walking up the gorgeous and tiring spiral staircase to the second floor and standing in front of the room with an iron sign of 210 at the end of the corridor, Lan Yexing took out the key and prepared a polite and sincere self-introduction.
The dormitory here is a double room, so he should have a roommate.
He actually came to the dormitory once today to put away his luggage, but his roommate had to go to class at that time, so they didn't meet.
After all, they are going to live together for a long time, so Lan Yexing still wants to have a good relationship with the other party.
Not knowing what he was thinking of, he paused and asked the system in a low voice: "Do you know my roommate?" Could he be a capturer as well?
The system replied: [Your roommate is a civilian omega classmate from the same department as you, and is not interested in the target person——]
Lan Yexing felt relieved, inserted the key into the keyhole neatly, and turned it lightly.
The moment he pushed open the soundproof door, a strong rose scent mixed with a pungent smell of tobacco suddenly hit him in the face, almost making Lan Yexing faint on the spot. He instantly remembered the pheromone smell emitted during the AO susceptible period here that the system had taught him when he just woke up.
And now, mixed with these choking smells is a kind of sweet pleading of rejection: "No, don't do this... Please, just give me a temporary mark, or an inhibitor..."
"Please, please don't go on. My roommate is here today. He'll see it when he comes back..."
Then another man's disdainful and arrogant voice sounded: "Hehe, you lowly bastard, why are you trying to resist? Don't forget that you asked me to come here."
Lan Yexing, who was frozen beside the open door, could not move: "???" What's going on? !
The system's voice belatedly sounded again: [——However, the alpha who has a secret relationship with your roommate is one of the capturers who is determined to capture the target person Qiao You. Please prevent all capture events related to him in the future.]
Lan Yexing: “…”
