Pheromone Recognition Disorder

Chapter 11: There is no way I can do that

Views:

However, whether she is a widow or not has nothing to do with Huo Xianfeng.

The reason I helped them just now was because I happened to meet those two garbage dealers. Huo Xianfeng didn't continue the topic. He glanced at the small bag in the girl's arms.

"You can keep the star coins, but throw away the bag."

On this planet where there are no laws, you have to be cautious in doing everything. For the sake of caution, you cannot keep a small cloth bag stained with pregnancy beta pheromones around.

"Oh, okay~"

Tang Cha obediently poured out the star coins, checked them carefully, and then put them into her small bag. Then she prepared to throw the small bag away.

"etc,"

Huo Xianfeng seemed to have suddenly realized something. He grabbed the small cloth bag from Tang Cha's hand, frowned and sniffed it.

"What's the scent of perfume on this?"

Even though pheromones and ordinary odor molecules give people similar smell sensations, they are completely different things. Therefore, Huo Xianfeng cannot sense pheromones, but this does not affect his sense of smell in identifying various smells.

"ah?"

Tang Cha was stunned. After confirming it again, he hesitated and said,

"There's no perfume."

It was clean as a whim, with nothing on it except for a tiny, almost undetectable trace of pregnancy beta pheromone.

"There's none?"

That's strange.

Huo Xianfeng moved closer and sniffed it carefully. There was clearly a very peculiar floral scent on it, which didn't sound like pheromones, but it was strangely... intoxicating.

"… "

Tang Cha stared silently at the tip of the boy's nose which was constantly sniffing, and his eyes gradually became strange.

After all, it is a very perverted behavior for a hot-blooded teenage Alpha to smell something that has pregnancy beta pheromones.

—Not to mention that the pregnant beta was a widow.

Perhaps it was because the little girl's eyes were too burning that Huo Xianfeng finally came to his senses. After realizing what he was doing, his back stiffened for a moment.

"Ahem..."

He clenched his fist and coughed lightly, then turned his head to signal Tang Cha to look at the two humanoid creatures with twisted limbs on the ground, and changed the subject very abruptly,

"Go and see if there is anything useful on them."

"… good."

Tang Cha nodded obediently and immediately swiftly stripped the clothes of the two human traffickers. Broken limbs did not scare her, after all, such scenes were common on this planet.

Puff!

A dull sound of a sharp weapon piercing into the body suddenly rang out.

Tang Cha looked down coldly at the man who was struggling to death, and the dagger cruelly and slowly pierced the man's throat.

—This person was one of the human traffickers who kidnapped her mother.

Huo Xianfeng heard clearly what happened behind him, but there was no surprise on his face, as if he had expected it. Compared with the movement behind him, he was more concerned about the small cloth bag in his hand.

The hot-blooded young alpha stared at the small bag again and again. There was no marking on it and the material was also very ordinary.

The only special thing is the floral scent.

However, Tang Cha, who had a keen sense of smell, said that there was no smell on it. This strange contradiction made Huo Xianfeng frown.

A few minutes later, there was silence behind him, and the strong smell of blood began to dissipate. Huo Xianfeng put the things in his arms and asked casually,

"Is everything taken care of?"

"Um!"

Tang Cha ran back to him, looking up with a bright smile,

"Brother Xiao Huo, I have done everything according to what you taught me."

The boy looked back. In just over ten minutes, she not only buried the bodies of two adult men neatly and skillfully, but also cleaned the blood off her hands.

—Very nimble.

Huo Xianfeng didn't plan to stay on this planet for long, so he didn't plan to bring Tang Cha with him all the time. So during this period of time, he had been intentionally teaching the child some life-saving skills.

Huo Xianfeng glanced at the girl's smiling face and casually pulled down the hood on her head to cover it.

"Then go back."

After saying this, he strode forward.

"… good."

Tang Cha wiped his eyes vigorously, then ran to catch up with the boy.

"Brother Xiao Huo, we have gained a lot today. If we take the things to the recycling station and sell them tomorrow, we can save several thousand star coins. Do you want to celebrate tonight? I will cook you some loose wine and peach-flavored nutritional supplements. How about that?"

"-what ever."

At night, they returned to an unknown slum on Tiandong Star.

Specifically, it is probably a slightly cleaner garbage dump. A simple house is built with the remains of old machinery, covered with several layers of thick waterproof cloth, and equipped with windows and doors.

The only slight difference was that Huo Xianfeng did not squeeze together with a group of people for safety, but chose a very remote place to build his little house.

As for Tang Cha, after the little girl insisted on following him, he also moved to his neighborhood and built a small shed.

"Gulp..."

Tang Cha skillfully cooked the dinner in the pot. It was called dinner, but it was just a stew of loose wine and nutrients. Although it sounds devilish, this is the daily diet of the civilians on Tiandong Star.

Loose liquor is blended with alcohol in the factory. It has a spicy taste and contains many impurities, but fortunately it is cheap. The average temperature on Tiandong Star is more than ten degrees below zero. For the poor people on the surface, loose liquor is an indispensable item.

Huo Xianfeng unbuttoned his heavy cloak, wearing only a thin white linen shirt. He picked up a bottle of loose wine and sat by the window to enjoy the cool breeze. The thin fabric undulated slightly with the wind, occasionally sticking to the skin, outlining the faint muscle lines between the boy's chest and abdomen.

—This is an incredible thing.

With such a big change, I'm afraid that even if the new recruit hadn't been mentally suggested, he wouldn't have been able to recognize it.

Huo Xianfeng took out the small bag and held it in his hand to observe it carefully. The smell had faded a lot, but strangely enough, it still smelled good to him.

The young man turned his head quietly to look at Tang Cha who was cooking. The little girl was very serious about her work and didn't pay any attention to him. So Huo Xianfeng turned around again, his neck stiffened for a few seconds, then lowered his head and sniffed the smell on the small bag.

There is probably only omega pheromones in the world that can make alpha like it for no reason. But at the same time, it can also make alpha have many negative emotions such as sexual impulses, violence, possessiveness, etc.

But the scent from this bag is a very simple one that makes people feel happy and has a favorite floral aroma.

It's a bit like rose, and a bit like cool cedar.

Huo Xianfeng thought that if this was perfume, then the person who made it must be a master perfumer. However, this was not the case, because Tang Cha's answer at the time showed that he was the only one who could smell the scent on it.

He is the only one...

Huo Xianfeng's intuition told him that this was not a coincidence.

He frowned and turned his head to confirm something with Tang Cha.

"Tang Cha, the widow beta during the day..."

However, he didn't expect that when he turned around, he would meet the little girl's complicated gaze.

Um

"—Why are you looking at me like that?"

Obviously, Huo Xianfeng, who was only thinking about the investigation, did not realize how strange and perverted it was for a hot-blooded alpha like him to pay too much attention to a pregnant beta widow and keep smelling her things.

"… nothing,"

Tang Cha shook his head.

"What does Brother Xiao Huo want to ask that person?"

"Did you see his face clearly? Did he say why he came here?"

At this moment, Tang Cha's eyes suddenly showed an indescribable subtlety.

"I didn't see his face clearly, but his voice was very nice."

She tried to remember.

"At that time, he asked me how to get to the underground city, and I pointed him to the recycling station."

"Underground city?"

Huo Xianfeng grasped the key words.

What a coincidence

Because the purpose of his coming to this planet was to go to the underground city of Tiandong Star.

A month ago, Huo Xianfeng entered the military system through the optical brain of new recruit Lin Jin and found information about Tiandong Star. In this era, everyone is recorded by the big data of the star network as soon as they are born. As for people like him whose identity is unknown and even their species may not be known, they can only choose to settle in a gray area.

The best place is Tiandong Planet on the border of the empire, because in the underground black market on this planet, it is said that you can buy anything you want, including all kinds of intelligence.

However, for the sake of caution, Huo Xianfeng stayed on the surface for a week, intending to pretend to be a native here before going underground. But the beta was so impatient that he dared to go straight to the underground city as soon as he arrived at Tiandong Star.

Well, it seems that he is indeed ignorant of the dangers of the world. He will probably be eaten by the jackals here until not even a bone is left.

Huo Xianfeng suddenly let out a soft "tsk" and stood up quickly.

"I have to go out for something."

The boy put the small bag into his arms, grabbed his cloak and left.

"Brother Xiao Huo!"

Tang Cha called him, seeming to be hesitant to speak.

"Um, wait..."

"?"

Huo Xianfeng turned around and gave him a puzzled look. He saw that the little girl's eyes were wandering. After a long pause, she whispered,

"After a pregnant beta loses her partner, in order to protect the baby in her belly, she will not be able to accept other people for a short period of time..."

Huo Xianfeng: “… ?”

He was stunned for more than ten seconds before he understood the hidden meaning behind Tang Cha's words.

No, doesn't he look like a pervert who is targeting widows

“… I have no interest in that guy at all.”

As if he felt that the explanation just now was not strong enough, Huo Xianfeng even strode back and said solemnly,

"There is no way I would have any improper thoughts about a pregnant widow!"

"Oh, I see..."

Tang Cha stared at the small bag in his arms for a long while before nodding and saying very considerately,

"That was my misunderstanding. It turns out that Brother Xiao Huo didn't go out so late to look for him."

Huo Xianfeng, who was about to go out to look for someone: "..."

The boy froze for a few seconds and subconsciously explained,

"I just wanted to ask..." What perfume the guy was wearing.

Halfway through his words, Huo Xianfeng suddenly fell silent.

Oh, that's not right.

Wait, why does it seem even more perverted
