As soon as the voice fell, everyone's eyes turned to the past. Although the students of Diyi already knew their identities, they were still excited when they heard the name from the headmaster's mouth.
From now on, their throne of Emperor One TOP1 will be more well-deserved.
For a while, the camera also turned around.
The face of this hero appeared on the TV of every household and even on the street screen at the same time.
It was seen that the student was very young. With a handsome appearance, he is more like a popular artist than a soldier. But the eyes are deep and bottomless, and it is not like what ordinary people can have.
Bai Yue walked out of the team.
Passionate music played, making people feel surging.
He came to the stage to salute, and the land will take over the medal from the ceremony and put it on him personally.
At this moment, the flashing lights flickered wildly, remembering this historical moment.
The medal is silver, somewhat similar to Bai Yue's hair color.
"Let's make a comment."
Land will step aside.
Bai Yue stayed in the center alone. At this moment, all the cameras and everyone's eyes fell on him. All eyes.
He turned to face the crowd. This time, it was the first time he looked directly into the camera.
When he met those light gray eyes, the audience in front of the screen couldn't help but beat faster.
Bai Yue originally wanted to say something casually and then go down, but unconsciously, he caught sight of Shang Yufei in the crowd.
He hesitated, then looked at the camera again. It was as if they could see the other side of the screen, and all the audience had a twinkle in their eyes, looking forward to his next speech.
What should be said
The time was empty for a long time, and a trace of confusion appeared on the faces of the students, and they looked at each other in dismay.
Bai Yue took the corner of the medal and watched it for a while. Shaoqing smiled and said, "Although it's a very old-fashioned word."
This badge carried the weight of more than 300 lives. Not only to him, but also to his comrades and soldiers who lost their lives in battle.
He can now stand in front of the stage. But for those who died, perhaps no one but their family could remember their names.
The duty of a soldier is to defend the home and the country, not to die.
- He was about to speak, but suddenly stopped.
This is a recognition ceremony, not a memorial service. Soon after that, the Empire will presumably hold a special memorial ceremony.
Now, the audience - what do the people of the Empire want to hear
Zerg invasion, panic all day long. Although it did not cause greater panic under the control of the imperial government, what they hoped for may be a more precise guarantee.
What they need is a "hero" to promise their future safety.
On the surface, this is a commendation ceremony; in reality, it is also a conference to appease the hearts of the people.
After the first sentence was spoken, Bai Yue thought a lot for a while. But in reality, the time elapsed was only a fraction of a second.
He paused, then continued: "Although it's a very old-fashioned word."
"First of all, I want to thank the military. For giving me this honor."
"Our battle with the Zerg is not over yet. But please rest assured, as soldiers, we will always put the safety of the people and the empire first."
"Even if the aliens attack again, it must be in vain."
"We will directly destroy the Zerg nest just like that day, and solve all the remaining ones!"
Bai Yue put his hands behind his back, his back was straight, and he looked straight ahead.
"The mission of the soldiers is to protect the family and the country. Please stay safe behind our backs."
"We will never let the Zerg's fingers hurt you."
The crowd listened in awe. At this moment, both the ready-made students and the audience separated by a screen fell into silence.
The remarks just now were extremely enthusiastic. If it was said by another enthusiastic person, it is estimated that the audience would have cheered excitedly.
But the young soldier had a warm voice. The same words were uttered by him, but a completely different meaning was heard.
Moisturizing is silent.
At this moment, what the people of the empire felt was not so much blood, but peace of mind.
They couldn't help but want to believe that the young man in front of them could really protect them, the entire empire, and even the safety of mankind. save them from alien hands.
The whole place was silent for a few seconds.
Shang Yufei stood in the team, frowning at the people on the stage.
Is this a fairly all-human hero? Saying such words in front of so many people, even if you want to quit because of cowardice in the future, is equivalent to completely cutting off the way back.
As if aware of the sight, Bai Yue lowered his head and looked over. The two looked at each other.
Then, Shang Yufei saw that Bai Yue raised the corner of his mouth slightly and smiled at him.
Shang Yufei was startled. The heartbeat quickened a little.
No one knew who Bai Yue was smiling at. It wasn't until they saw this smile that everyone came back to their senses. The Teiichi student couldn't help shouting the man's name.
"Ahhh Bai Yue!!"
"What a man! Which military department do you want to join in the future, add me!"
Hearing the loud shouting at the scene, the audience in front of the screen finally reacted and took out their mobile phones to send bullet screens.
[Salute to the soldiers! 】
[Bai Yue, Bai Yue, Bai Yue! 】
For a time, Bai Yue's name swiped across the entire screen. It is almost impossible to see faces.
Shang Yufei's ears were full of shouts, and nearby were the arms of other students constantly waving. They tried their best to enhance their presence and make Bai Yue notice them.
But Bai Yue's eyes kept falling on Shang Yufei.
Shang Yufei was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head unconsciously, and put his hand on the back of his neck.
"hateful."
Although I don't want to admit it, it's too handsome.
The commendation ceremony is over. But official media reporters don't want to let this rising star go.
The speech at the ceremony is public and gets more attention than other media, and the key is the interview after it.
After Bai Yue stepped down, he did not return to the team, but went to the rear. The official media did not miss this clue, and swarmed to the backstage. Disappointingly, they didn't find what they were looking for there.
In anticipation of the chaos that followed, Bai Yue left early at the suggestion of Principal Lu.
Now most of the students and faculty are concentrated in the auditorium, and no one can be seen outside.
The commendation ceremony was arranged in the morning, and the official media should leave after noon. Bai Yue sent a message to Shang Yufei, telling him that he would go back to the dormitory first to avoid it.
Walking towards the dormitory, the street is quiet. The morning sun shines through the intersecting branches, casting specks of light on the ground.
The noise of the auditorium has completely disappeared. Bai Yue is close to the dormitory building.
At this time, he saw a familiar figure standing in front of the door, and he couldn't help but slow down.
The other party did not go in for some reason, but stood on the stairs. Looking up, looking from this direction, I can just see the window of the dormitory room.
"Mu Sihan?"
Bai Yue hesitated to call out the man's name.
The other party moved for a while, then turned his head to look back. When his eyes met, Bai Yue stepped up and walked over.
"You're back!"
It has been more than a month since he left the military camp, and the other party went back to K City without receiving treatment, and he has been unable to contact him during this period. He thought something was wrong.
When he got closer, Bai Yue realized that Mu Sihan's appearance had changed a little.
"Did you cut your hair?"
Originally, the other party's blond hair grew to around the neck. Now it only reaches the ear, revealing half of the outline of the ear.
Mu Sihan didn't answer the question, and looked down: "Is your injury all right?"
"It's almost done." Bai Yue smiled, "Why are you standing outside?"
Mu Sihan: "..."
"Go ahead." Bai Yue said and pushed open the door.
Mu Sihan stood there for a while, then followed.
Go back to the room. The curtains were not drawn, and the sunlight came in directly, warm and translucent.
Mu Sihan watched the furnishings of the room. Nothing has changed from before he left.
Bai Yue's voice came from behind: "I have been unable to contact you."
"..." Mu Sihan replied, "Sorry, the phone is broken."
"Really?" Bai Yue breathed a sigh of relief.
The reason why the other party did not receive treatment can be guessed - he did not want to reveal the identity of Omega during the treatment. Even so, returning to such a dangerous place with that injury was really worrying.
Especially after being out of touch for more than a month. If it is Baiyue, the phone should be replaced as soon as possible. But thinking about it, Mu Sihan didn't have that kind of awareness.
Bai Yue: "Is the injury healed?"
Mu Sihan nodded slightly.
Bai Yue: "That's good."
It was confirmed that Mu Sihan was also safe and sound. Now, the Zerg thing can finally come to an end.
Bai Yue took off the medal on his chest and put it in the drawer.
Mu Sihan stood aside, watching Bai Yue's actions, and suddenly said, "Do you have anything else to ask?"
Bai Yue turned around and tilted his head.
Mu Sihan frowned slightly, as if he was a little hard to say.
Hanging his head down, his hair was no longer covering him, and the slender and white back of his neck was unobstructed.
"About the Omega."
Bai Yueqing closed the drawer and asked, "Do you have anything to say?"
"..." Mu Sihan frowned more and more tightly.
"Don't you think it's funny? He's obviously an Omega, but he pretended to be an Alpha and got in."
As an Omega, although you can enter the military school, you will never be able to enter the battlefield. Because once the estrus period comes, no matter how strong it is, it will drag others down.
It was the same before. If Bai Yue hadn't arrived in time, he might have done more unimaginable things.
No matter how proud you are of self-control, you can't resist your nature.
He hates his body.
Bai Yue looked at Mu Sihan and said, "You are very powerful. If I were an Omega, I would never be able to do this to your level."
Without secondary differentiation, he would never want to become a soldier, let alone exercise his body like Mu Sihan.
"The same thing happened with the Zerg before. If you weren't there, we would be in big trouble."
"And personally," Bai Yue chuckled, "I'm glad you can be my roommate."
If it wasn't for Mu Sihan's early training, he wouldn't even be able to pass the first level. If he can't prove his strength, Shang Yufei will not change his mind.
He will miss the selection, miss the sports meeting, and everything he has experienced so far in Teyi may be broken like a bubble.
What's more, for Bai Yue, who has experienced secondary differentiation, gender is the most irrelevant thing in his eyes.
Whether his gender changed from Omega to Alpha, or Mu Sihan disguised from Omega to Alpha. They are still them and will not change.
He only knew that Mu Sihan was his important comrade-in-arms.
Grow together and fight together.
Hearing this, Mu Sihan raised his head.
The icy blue eyes are different from the past, as if shimmering: "Do you think so?"
Bai Yue frowned slightly: "Yes."
"It doesn't matter whether you are an Alpha or an Omega. I hope that I can stay with you as a companion in Teichi in the future."
Hearing this answer, Mu Sihan's expression showed no emotion. He looked away and repeated the word in a low voice.
"companion."
He never felt that he could do anything even by himself. So unless it is profitable, he will not help others, nor does he need others to help himself.
Acting alone is more efficient and does not need to be disturbed by others.
He doesn't need anyone other than himself.
"… "
As it should be.
But this idea gradually changed after meeting Bai Yue.
The other party took the trouble to bring him into the team. Even though he repeatedly showed rejection, Bai Yue's attitude remained the same.
According to past experience, he should have been isolated from the crowd long ago. Although this is what he originally wanted.
— Human existence is disgusting in itself.
Whether it's Alpha, Beta, or Omega.
Growing up in K City, in his impression, Alpha is bullying and lustful. Only power, status and Omega are in the eyes of such people. Unscrupulous means to achieve the goal.
Beta will either just flatter the good and fear the evil, or do nothing for the rest of his life. Lying on the ground drunk, not screaming even if someone stepped on their body.
Omegas just cry. Weak and weak, do not know how to resist. Every day wagging his tail and begging for a comfortable life from the strong, and then venting the pain he has experienced on the same sex. This cycle.
But Bai Yue is different.
To be different from everyone he's ever seen.
Outside, the golden sunlight came through the window and fell on Mu Sihan's golden hair.
Maybe he wants a relationship, not just a companion.
It was just a vague feeling before. And this was the first time that Mu Sihan had such a clear idea. However, it seemed that Bai Yue didn't mean anything to him.
"You probably have your own purpose in wanting to enter the military. Disguising as an Alpha will indeed go farther than Omega."
Bai Yue said, "This is the end of this matter. From now on, I will still treat you as Alpha."
In other words, Mu Sihan's identity will not be exposed.
Mu Sihan exhaled softly and looked at Bai Yue again: "...Thank you."
"Thank you." Bai Yue smiled, "Hands up."
As if infected by that smile, a smile appeared on Mu Sihan's face.
Although Bai Yue is very smart, sometimes he is too slow. What he wanted to thank was not simply helping to conceal his identity.
What the other party said just now; when he resisted the Zerg before, the other party did not mark his behavior; and more bits and pieces of what happened after he enrolled in Emperor One.
Like a ray of light shining into a dark, fetid quagmire.
He stood up from the depths of the quagmire and touched the light.
The phone rang, and Bai Yue made an apologetic gesture and answered the call.
It was Shang Yufei calling.
He listened for a while, then went to the window and looked down. I saw Shang Yufei standing not far away, looking up here.
"Get down now."
After just saying these four words, he hung up the phone.
Listening to the beep from the other end of the phone, Bai Yue looked at the person beside him: "Sorry, I have to go out."
Mu Sihan nodded, seeing him leave in a hurry. The door slammed shut.
The room returns to tranquility. Mu Sihan looked out the window and found that the second-year senior was still standing at the bottom of the building. Looking in his direction, there is undisguised hostility in his eyes.
Mu Sihan frowned.
Bai Yue walked out of the dormitory building. Seeing Shang Yufei standing not far away, he quickened his pace and rushed over. As soon as he approached, before he could open his mouth, he was grabbed by his wrist and pulled forward.
Bai Yue stumbled.
Is this angry and why
He straightened up and looked at the other person's expression.
The only reason I can think of now is the speech on the podium just now.
Shang Yufei doesn't like his "heroism", he will probably be very upset if he speaks out in front of the media.
"I was at the ceremony just now..."
Shang Yufei interrupted: "What did you say?"
Bai Yue was taken aback: "We?"
Shang Yufei turned his head and looked back: "That guy is back."
Bai Yue understood: "Did you say Mu Sihan? We just... "
Said that everyone is a partner and will fight together in the future.
Bai Yue stopped.
Having said that, I didn't feel it when I said it just now, but now I have to repeat it for some inexplicable shame.
Shang Yufei misunderstood the meaning of Bai Yue's pause, and said unhappily, "Can't tell?"
"No." Bai Yue said, "Just a little embarrassed."
Embarrassed
Shang Yufei became even more popular. The angrier he became, the more silent he became. No more words for now, and continue to drag Bai Yue forward.
The dormitory on the Diyi campus is divided into three areas, namely Alpha, Beta, and Omega's dormitories. Therefore, even if the grades are different, the dormitories of the two Alphas are very close.
Bai Yue was taken into Shang Yufei's room. The other roommate has not returned.
In the next second, he was pushed onto the bed, and Shang Yufei pushed him over and held him firmly under him.
The curtains were not drawn, and the lights were not turned on. What does this guy want to do on this sunny afternoon.
"Do you want to do it now?" Bai Yue said, "It's still daytime."
Shang Yufei: "Who said that it can't be done during the day!"
There is no rule.
Bai Yue: "It's just that I still have classes in the afternoon."
Shang Yufei's eyes narrowed slightly: "It's warped."
Bai Yue looked at Shang Yufei, slowly raised his legs, wrapped his arms around the opponent's waist, and pressed down sharply. The two immediately turned up and down in order.
Bai Yue looked down at Shang Yufei and said with a smile, "No, credits will be deducted for absenteeism."
Shang Yufei looked away: "Hey."
Bai Yue: "What the hell happened to you?"
He got up. Shang Yufei was not as reckless as before, but just lay on the bed on his back.
Bai Yue didn't hear a response, and called the other party's name.
"Yufei?"
Shang Yufei: "..."
Bai Yue: "Senior?"
Still didn't answer.
Bai Yue leaned over, put his arms on both sides of Shang Yufei's body, and looked at the handsome face of the other party: "If you don't speak again, I will kiss you."
Shang Yufei moved his lips slightly and pulled the corners of his mouth: "Do you consider this a threat or a reward?"
Bai Yue thought for a while: "Then tell me the reason, and I'll kiss you."
Shang Yufei exhaled helplessly, turned over and sat up.
"You move out of the dormitory." He put his arm on his knee and frowned, "Since you know that guy is an Omega, you can't live together anymore."
Bai Yue: "Okay."
There was no hesitation for a second, and the answer was very fast. Shang Yufei was slightly startled, then turned his head to look over.
Bai Yue tilted his head: "what's the matter?"
"No, I thought you..." Shang Yufei was still stunned.
One A and One O have been in the same room for so long, and the pheromone match is high. What's more, that guy asked Bai Yue to temporarily mark... He couldn't think about it.
And now that he knows the identity of that guy Omega, he is even more convinced that his suspicions are not groundless.
"Why?" Bai Yue smiled, "Are you thinking of something bad?"
Shang Yufei was speechless for a while.
"Nothing happened between me and him. Even the Omega thing was discovered with you that day."
Although Bai Yue did feel a little bit of disobedience when they met for the first time. But after learning about Mu Sihan's Alpha's identity and the fact that the other party had been hiding it well, he didn't think much about it at all.
To be honest, his own gender is confusing, and he really doesn't care what other people are.
"As for what I said to him just now." Bai Yue said, "I just hope he can continue to stay in Diyi and not be hindered by his identity as an Omega."
Bai Yue said, put his hand on Shang Yufei's palm, and asked in a low voice, "Are you relieved?"
The palm temperature passed over.
Shang Yufei lowered his eyes and frowned, "Do you think I'm annoying?"
Bai Yue asked, "Because you like to be jealous and lose your temper?"
Shang Yufei: "!"
Shang Yufei: "You really—"
"No." Bai Yue smiled at Shang Yufei, "I like whatever you are."
Hearing this, Shang Yufei blushed suddenly. Then he seemed to realize something, and hurriedly covered his ears.
"You TM did it on purpose!"
Bai Yue: "It's the truth."
He reached out and touched Shang Yufei's cheek: "Although I like it very much, what we want to do should wait until evening."
"Okay."
