The gray-haired guard slowly turned around, keeping his eyes on Ethan, "Construction site? Which construction site?"
A layer of cold sweat broke out on Ethan's back. How could he know that there were several construction sites, so he had to say nonsense: "I don't know, Samuel took me there"
"Jonathan Samuel?" The gray-haired guard stared at him suspiciously, grinning to one side, and said to the rest of the guards, "Go and have a look."
The group passed by the stiff Ethan, the gray-haired guard stopped for a moment on his right, and said with a low smile, "It's better not to let me find out that you're lying to me."
Ethan only felt a cold current rise from under his feet, and the roots of his hair stood on end. For a moment, he wondered if he should tell the truth immediately and immediately kneel on the ground to apologize, but the little bit of backbone he had finally kept him from surrendering. The sound of footsteps drifted away, and Ethan hurriedly moved his stiff legs to Taifeng.
The familiar and handsome face drooped down, and the eyelids drooped weakly. There were bruises all over his body, some from sticks, some with suspicious teeth marks, and a mess between his legs. Ethan looked at his heart and felt very uncomfortable. The pity and resentment against the guards made his eyes warm. He immediately moved a chair with no back and stood on it, untied Taifeng hands.
Tai Feng's legs could not support his body, and he fell to the ground with a groan. Ethan hurriedly climbed down from the chair, hesitating for a moment before touching Tai Feng's dirty body with stains and sweat, and finally helped him up.
"How are you, can you go?" They didn't have much time to get out of here before the angry guards ran back to find them.
Tai Feng nodded, as if struggling to get up on Ethan's shoulder. In fact, Ethan has no idea right now. Will there be a hospital in a place like the Forbidden City? After hesitating for a moment, he finally decided to get Taifeng back to his and Samuel's house first.
Although Taifeng is an Omega, he is still a man after all. Ethan dragged and hugged all the way and returned to the house where his clean clothes were soaked with sweat. He helped Tai Feng to lie down on his hardwood bed, which didn't even have a sheet, and used the washbasin to get clean water to help the other party clean the possible wounds on his body. Tai Feng kept whimpering softly, his muscles twitching with pain.
Even inhumans probably wouldn't destroy an Omega like that, right? As citizens, why would those guards do such a thing
A place like the Forbidden City is simply not suitable for Omega. With a heavy heart, Ethan exhaled a long breath.
He couldn't see Tai Feng shivering naked. He wanted to get Samuel's clothes, but he was afraid that he would get angry if he took too much. He suddenly remembered the non-humans who had not returned from the Red Earth mission with him, and several of them lived in the same building as him. Thinking of this, he immediately rushed out the door and searched from room to room. Most of those people's things have been divided up. Fortunately, he was lucky and found a few clothes and a quilt in the last room on the first floor. When he went upstairs with his arms full of things in his arms, he suddenly realized that he had already started to carve up the things of "dead people" as eagerly as others, and he didn't feel any guilt at all.
After dressing Taefeng and covering him with the quilt, Ethan sat on Samuel's bed and let out a sigh of relief. Seeing the human figure in his bed not only in a coma but also in a sound sleep, he was only now beginning to feel fear.
The gray-haired cop knew he was with Samuel, would he come to trouble him, would he trouble Samuel
The sense of unease grew stronger, and he started pacing the room over and over again. Now he has begun to regret saving Taifeng, and he can't protect himself. Why is he trying to be a hero
At that time, he should not have passed by after hearing the cry for help, but he would not have been seen by Taifeng in the past, nor would he have known that Taifeng was here, and he would not be so distracted now. However, it is now too late to regret it.
A low moan came from the bed, Ethan looked over and found that Tai Feng had woken up faintly. For a moment, he seemed to be the cold and proud researcher at the Energy Bureau, but after the daze faded away, the thick fear immediately infected those eyes. He was shaking violently, hurriedly trying to sit up, and then he saw Ethan.
The two looked at each other for a moment, and Ethan watched the fear in each other's eyes settle a little bit, replaced by some kind of ecstasy.
"Ethan Eldridge!!! I thought I was dreaming!" He stretched out his hand to him, as if to grab a long-lost relative. Ethan was a little frightened by his enthusiasm. Although the two of them had a good conversation at the Energy Bureau, they have always been friends of gentlemen. Tai Feng has an arrogant personality and rarely shows strong emotions.
Ethan hesitantly reached out to hold Taifeng's hand and sat down on the edge of the bed. Tai Feng grabbed his hand so tightly that his bones hurt. Ethan smiled bitterly, "I'll break a bone if I squeeze it any more. I usually suspect that I'm not trying to squeeze myself in my dreams. Why are you squeezing me?"
Tai Feng hurriedly loosened his strength as if he had realized it later, but still just held him, as if he was afraid that he would run away, "Why are you here? Are you here to investigate?"
Ethan is really amused now. He spread his hands, "Do you look at me like I'm investigating?"
"They threw you in too?!"
Ethan nodded, "Leave the secrets of Project Zero to a triple spy, treason."
"But didn't the chief speak for you?"
"He can't protect himself, so how can he take care of me."
Tai Feng nodded, those eyes that kept wandering seemed a little frightened, and probably didn't hear what Ethan was saying.
"How did you provoke those guards?" Although he knew that the other party probably didn't want to talk about the nightmare he had just experienced, Ethan still had to ask. Before Samuel could come he had to know how much trouble he was in.
But Tai Feng bit his lip tightly, as if he didn't want to speak. Ethan looked at his neck in particular, and sure enough, he saw two rows of tooth marks that were so deep that they could see blood.
Forcibly marking... With a personality like Tai Feng, he would definitely not agree to such a thing, probably to anger the gray-haired guard? Ethan's heart sank. Taking away the marked Omega without permission is the most unbearable behavior for the Alphas. If he knew the relationship, he should hurry and send Taifeng back now...
But after all, he still can't watch a former friend being bullied and turn a blind eye.
When it was time to get off work, there were more people on the street. The noise in the corridor gradually rose, and the heavy footsteps made the floor tremble slightly. Not long after the door squeaked open, Samuel flashed into the house in ashes, with a cigarette in his mouth, and asked Ethan casually, "You really stayed in the house for a while..."
Before he could say the last word, he saw Tai Feng, who was sitting on the bed and wrapped his body with the quilt with a terrified face.
"Who the hell are you?"
Ethan pushed his glasses and replied in a low voice instead of Taifeng, "My former colleague at the Energy Bureau was in a bit of trouble..."
Samuel glared at Ethan, his eyes flashing with fire, "Can't you just stop taking men into the house all day?! Last time you were an Alpha and this time you're an Omega, you really don't pick it up."
Ethan couldn't believe his ears, his green eyes were rounded, and he couldn't help but say a foul language, "When the fuck am I bringing men into the house all day long!"
Samuel rolled his eyes, looking like he didn't care about him. Ethan's face turned pale with anger, but he couldn't refute it. After all, he was still wearing Samuel's clothes.
At this moment, Samuel suddenly seemed to think of something, and turned around suddenly and pinched Ethan's shoulder, "You said that he was in trouble, and that trouble could not have something to do with the 'Second Master' Gray Fur? ?"
"What second master?"
"It's Maxim Ivanovich Vasilev, the most powerful captain of the Eastern District Guard, except for Chief Guard Schneider, the one with gray hair."
Seeing that Ethan's face immediately turned pale, Samuel stared at him for a while with a look that could not tell whether he was angry or helpless, and finally he sighed, "I just said why he suddenly brought a bunch of people today. I ran to the construction site for a walk, with a calculating look on my face. It turns out that you, the secretary, are tired of living and meddling with your own business."
Ethan swallowed, "You seem to have a good relationship with Chief Guard Schneider? Can you tell him..."
"If something like this happened on the red earth, it's not certain whether he will come back and continue to be the chief of the guard. Have you forgotten, he didn't come back with us. Now, Gray Mao is the president of the Eastern District, and you really are Dare to do it, a little Beta, robbing people from the big president." Samuel took off his dirty shirt, threw the cigarette butts on the ground and smashed them with his feet, "You can either send them back quickly, or hurry up yourself. Write a suicide note."
Ethan turned his head and glanced at Tai Feng, who had been silent for a while, only to see the latter's expression of despair upon hearing Samuel's words, his eyes were dead, and the knuckles of his grasping the quilt turned white.
Ethan only felt that one head and two were big, and instantly had the urge to take another ten mission and die outside. He moved closer to Samuel, speaking in a voice only the two of them could hear.
"You are all Omegas, it's not easy in the Forbidden City, can't you help him find a way?"
"You think I'm the president of the Omega Federation, and I want to take care of it?" Samuel kicked the boots he took off impatiently, "If you're not afraid of death, send him to the clinic tomorrow, where is it? There are often volunteers who like to engage in inhuman rights protection movements, and if they are lucky enough to run into them, Gray Mao won’t be able to move him for a while.”
Ethan breathed a sigh of relief and was about to thank him when he heard Sammy snort coldly, "Some people say that offending Gray Mao is worse than offending Schneider. Do it yourself, remember not to drag me into the water."
At night, Taifeng occupied Ethan's bed, and he had nowhere to sleep. Samuel glanced at Ethan, who was sitting in the corner and planned to spend the night just like that. He moved to the side and patted the vacant corner, "Hey, secretary."
Ethan glanced at the bed that wasn't wide enough, and quickly shook his head, "No, I'm fine."
Samuel was inexplicably suffocated, and his bright eyes could convey his displeasure even in the dark, "You screw up your ass, don't give me your Beta gentleman's style."
"… Not so good… "
"Why didn't you feel bad when you got on the priest's little white face's bed?"
"Be quiet! That's different!"
"Can't you fucking come here?"
"… "
With a rustling sound, Ethan carefully curled up on the edge of the kang, feeling uncomfortable all over his body. Samuel's body was warmer than the average human being transmitted through the clothes and quilt, and the traces of Omega's musk covered by the smell of Alpha also lingered incessantly.
But even with that smell, it's hard to connect Samuel and Omega. Especially after comparing it with the Thai style diagonally opposite. Ethan couldn't help showing some respect for the tall man beside him.
"Hey, secretary, what happened to your energy bureau? Did the whole bureau come in?" Samuel's sleepy voice suddenly floated to his ears, and Ethan couldn't react for a while.
"…I can't tell."
"Hahahaha..." A low laugh made the bed tremble, "You're all inhuman, and you want to keep it a secret for the country?"
Ethan thought about it carefully, and felt that what the other party said was very reasonable, but he couldn't refute it.
"It's not good for you to know." Ethan rolled over and turned his back to Omega. His memory returned to the clean and sharp Energy Bureau building of the third space station, as well as the secret research center buried deep in Mars, and a coldness made him shrink slightly.
When the Energy Agency was commissioned to build an underground research station and particle accelerator on Mars in preparation for Project Zero, he had always felt uneasy. Project Zero has always been a conception of human beings and cannot be realized in reality. But the Eves offered one thing and made that other plan possible. Once successful, it will be a new type of energy source only possessed by the Earth Alliance, which can not only be applied to the research and development of long-range spaceships outside the galaxy, but also can be used to create weapons that are terrifying enough to devour stars.
Thinking about it now, perhaps the strange substance provided by the Eves came from the egg of the Sequence God.
Now that the Ophiuchus Alliance has obtained many key information of Project Zero through Roland, can that Project continue? Looking at the situation of Taifeng, I am afraid that it is not far from the stop.
That might be a good thing for the galaxy as a whole.
When I think of the Eves, I can't help but think of the man with blond hair and pointy ears, and then think of the night that made his blood boil. He lifted the quilt a little, trying to cool his skin.
When I thought that it would be impossible to see Taniser again in this life, and I didn't even have the chance to say goodbye, I felt a touch of disappointment in my heart. It was in this melancholy that he entered his second night of sleep in the Forbidden City.
The author has something to say:
The priest is probably from the next chapter or the next chapter~
