White vapor steaming out in a bathroom with cold white glossy tiles all around, the dazzling light from the top was hitting straight down, a muscular arm with smooth lines was slightly bent to support on the completely unfogged mirror, and crystal drops of water slid down.
The man in the mirror was handsome with broad shoulders and long legs. His tight abdominal muscles stretched down to the place covered by the bath towel. The only fly in the ointment1Raw 美中不足( měizhōngbùzú); everything is fine except for one small defect (idiom); the fly in the ointment was a hideous scar across his chest. The wound had stopped bleeding, but it still looked very terrifying.
Bloody water oozes faintly from the red marks, and was washed away by the clean water.
After wiping his damp hair, Lu Jinbei opened his eyes suddenly and looked at himself in the mirror. His dark eyes were deep and dangerous. He said a name, “Ling Huan.”
“Ling Huan’s specific itinerary for the last three days.”
A fluorescent digital screen was dancing on the corner of the wall, the cold and magnetic electronic sound immediately reported a series of information smoothly.
【No micro-surveillance was installed in Rayles Villa, and I can only find information fluctuations recorded on the Star Network. Three days ago, Ling Huan successfully registered as an official breeder in the breeder hall, serial number is 011, and the information has been updated to the Official Certification list of interstellar breeders, making him the first one this year. Two days ago, there was a real estate change under Ling Huan’s name, and there was an additional store on Kaos Avenue. At the same time, more than ten shopping information appeared that day. 】
【In the evening, Ling Huan logged on to the official website of “Cats and Dogs” to apply for the qualification form for the anti-lost ring. He chose a pink bracelet and used the highest authority to call out2Original text is 调出(diào chū); call out. I’m not sure if this is typo because the 调(diào) character is same with 雕(Diāo); carved. For now I’m just going to follow the original text, since it’s intersellar world where all equipment and technology were very advanced. that Ling Huan had a cat named Jin Bei… .】
“Alright.”
Lu Jinbei frowned, interrupted the vulgar name, took a deep breath, turned off the water, and came out of the bathroom wiping his hair.
Ling Huan’s itinerary has been recorded since three days ago, but obviously it was four days ago that he was taken into the trial hall because of his identity as an undercover agent. After undergoing memory removal surgery, it took Ling Huan a day to wake up, and even went straight to the breeder’s hall as soon as he opened his eyes.
What was the reason?
Previously, the Federal undercover organization started from research institute with the lowest defense, and among the military personnel, a senior team member was replaced without anyone noticing. Fortunately, the military found out and their plan failed completely, but now?
Was there someone behind Ling Huan instigating him?
A one-meter-tall robot slide in front of him, handed him a nutrient solution and a small bottle.
Lu Jinbei took a sip of the nutrient solution and felt that it was dry, tasteless and very bland. Inexplicably, the dried fish that was pinched and brought to his mouth by the white fingertips yesterday appeared in his mind.
He unscrewed the cap of the bottle and poured out two pills, then swallowed it with the unpalatable nutrient solution.
He reached out and inadvertently took a white shirt from the corner of the sofa, took it over and sniffed it, and there was still a very faint smell of blooming citrus on it.
Compared with the body of the person himself, there was not even one percent.
The pulsating digital screen in the living room give off a sound.
【There are guests visiting. 】
【Iris authentication information successfully identified: Tan Ye. 】
Tan Ye entered the door and saw that Lu Jinbei was sitting on the sofa safe and sound. He walked around and looked up and down carefully, after confirming that there were no missing arms or legs, he breathed a sigh of relief, “My brother, you really scared me to death. I don’t mind if you disappeared for two days without any reason. In any case you should inform me in advance, I was flustered to cope here… ”
“It happened suddenly.” Lu Jinbei nodded slightly, and casually put the unfinished nutrient solution on the table, “You come looking for me, what’s the matter?”
“The two star thieves brought back by the second ship, one went crazy and the other ran away. The whereabouts of the one that escaped is unknown, but it is certain that they3Author didn’t mention the star thieves’ gender, let’s use they for now ba _(:3」∠)_completely out of the range of Ole star. Although I don’t know what aircraft they used, but it must have jumped to another place. Those craven and cowardly4Raw 贪生怕死(tān shēngpà sǐ); lit. greedy for life, afraid of death (idiom); craven and cowardly, clinging abjectly to life, only interested in saving one’s neck people in the royal family heard that we let a dangerous person escape, and they are all frightened to death. They asked someone to ask me five times a day.”
Tan Ye pressed his brow with his finger, a little irritable, “Catch them alive, catch them alive, if you ask me, we should have killed them all when we caught them, at least it’s more reassuring than letting one go.”
“I think General Lawrence is really old and should abdicate. He still thinks that the star pirates active near the Nasha Meteor are just a little abnormal. This anomaly is simply too obvious! The one who went crazy was directly killed by the task force leader who was barely able to keep up with the speed. The bug was found in the body. The person died, but the bug was alive. ”
Lu Jinbei was not at all surprised by this result, he said expressionlessly, “The man has been dead for at least half a month.”
The physical activities of Star Pirates had always been controlled by bugs.
Tan Ye raised his hand and threw an object with broken edges and invisible outlines on the table, although the surface was covered with cracks, the muzzle of the black hole still has a lingering power, which looks very terrible, “This is the weapon used by the star pirates that was confiscated that day. I checked it with the research institute and they said that there should be a bullet in it, but now it’s gone…”
He thought in an optimistic direction, maybe the star thief shot at a crooked angle when he went crazy.
“I’ve already taken it off.”
Tan Ye was relaxed and leaned on the sofa as he ‘oh-ed’, and waved his hand nonchalantly, “It’s good if it already taken off…”
“What!?” He abruptly straightened up and looked at Lu Jinbei in disbelief, “Don’t tell me that you have disappeared for the past two days and said you went to recuperate because you were shot by this thing?”
“Then how did you survive?”
Tan Ye looked into Lu Jinbei’s eyes, making sure that every word the other party said was true, and couldn’t help swearing, “The research institute said that this thing is very weird. It aimed at alphas with high spiritual strength, if the alpha’s spiritual domain is stronger and more closed and chaotic, the effect will double and skyrocket, and the effect will be extremely fast. Within three hours, the spiritual domain will be completely collapse, and in the end people are either dead or completely insane.”
When he heard the report from the research institute, he felt as if he had been hit in the head.
He looks restrained and indifferent, but the spiritual power was violent, manic, and extremely unstable. The more suitable the conditions were, the faster the death rate will be. This fucking weapon was simply tailor-made to let Lu Jinbei die.
“How are you…… feeling now?” Tan Ye looked at Lu Jinbei who had crossed his legs opposite him, and found that Lu Jinbei’s eyes were drooping, as if he was thinking about something, and looked down along Lu Jinbei’s line of sight , he was a little surprised, “When did you buy the white shirt?”
If he remembered correctly, Lu Jinbei’s boring wardrobe was almost full of dark clothes.
Lu Jinbei said, “Mind your own business.”
Tan Ye shrank his neck, “You wear what you like to wear, I won’t have any opinion if you wearing pink. But is there something wrong with the research institute? This thing doesn’t have much effect on you? Where did you go to recuperate? Why not take advantage of this time to make an appointment with a spiritual counselor to help you look at your mind. ”
“No need.”
Lu Jinbei clenched the shirt in his hands uncontrollably, his wet black hair stuck to his forehead, and the insignificant smell on the shirt seemed to dissipate at any moment.
“Those omegas smell awful.”
At the beginning, he made several appointments for spiritual counseling, and he found that when those omega(‘s scent) was strong, it could directly arouse the pheromone scent of other alphas in passive estrus. When he smelled it, he only felt sick.
“Did you smell anything?”
Tan Ye suddenly frowned and stood up to smell it.
Lu Jinbei put the shirt on his lap into his bosom, “No.”
“The smell of blood is so strong, are you kidding me? Your wound opened up?” Tan Ye stared and looked over, “I’m not injured, are you still not fully recovering from your injuries?”
He reached out and pointed to Lu Jinbei’s buttoned white shirt, and the small piece near his chest was already glowing red.
……
Ling Huan spent three hours, but not only did not find the cat, but when he returned to his room, he was shocked to find that he had lost a piece of clothing.
The shirt he just wore it for a few hours when he got home yesterday, and was going to put the shirt to washed today, it has disappeared without trace!
