the next day.
Zhou Rong woke up in the morning light, stretched his long waist, lowered his head and kissed Sinan's sleeping cheek, refreshed, and got out of bed to work.
He brought all the tools he could use, and the water was divided according to the day. He took out the map to plan the travel route and possible material replenishment points in detail. The sun peeked out slightly, and immediately disappeared behind the thick clouds. Zhou Rong stood in the front yard and felt the humidity of the air, thinking that it was probably going to snow.
Mountains, rivers and distant villages are all shrouded in gloomy clouds, and the world is extremely quiet.
If you catch the snow, it's not good to go.
Zhou Rong ate a can of food casually, baked the bread on a small gas fire, washed the sweet milk powder with hot water for Sinan for breakfast, and went to wake him up; however, when he looked at the bedside, Sinan didn't wake up at all, lying on the bed asleep. Zhengxiang.
He's been really lethargic lately, probably due to self-healing after a certain degree of weakness - he slept less than six hours a day at the fertilizer plant, and even in his sleep he was very vigilant, as long as anyone approached him, he would be immediately attacked. When he woke up, he was completely different from the little snoring that was now under Zhou Rong's eyelids.
Zhou Rong pinched his nose and whispered a few words, but Sinan snapped open his hand and turned over, revealing a length of army green cloth pressed under him.
Zhou Rong's eyes fell on it and he was stunned.
It was the T-shirt he took off last night. It was clearly hanging at the door, but he couldn't find it when he woke up this morning. He didn't expect it to be taken away by Sinan and hid in a ball under the quilt.
"Little thief," Zhou Rong smiled, reaching for the T-shirt.
Can't move.
... still can't move.
Zhou Rong mocked: "Comrade Xiao Si, are you forcibly asking for a token of love?" Then he switched to pulling, just as he tried harder, suddenly Sinan stood up in a daze and wrapped his arms around Zhou Rong's waist.
"?"
Before Zhou Rong could react, Sinan threw a swift hook while he was half asleep!
boom!
Zhou Rong fell on the bed, almost stunned, and then felt Sinan squirming twice by his side, as if he had found a more comfortable position, and quickly fell asleep in his arms.
"..." Zhou Rong was stunned, his eyes slowly moving down.
I saw that Sinan's face was serene and calm in the morning light, his breath was warm and fragrant, and he was a little angel in a trance... A little angel who would use a hook weighing hundreds of kilograms in his sleep, almost knocking Alpha into a concussion.
"Si Nan..." Zhou Rong said in a trembling voice, "You... do you want to wake up and calm down first?"
Sinan licked his lips unconsciously.
Zhou Rong had difficulty breathing, his heart beat faster, and he felt dizzy in a trance. He didn't know if it was a real concussion or a flash of light red lips in front of him. He let out a deep breath, trying to use his strong willpower to control the blood from flowing down... But the ubiquitous and increasingly rich sweet smell made him breathless.
That's a pheromone.
But it's different from the pheromone lingering around Sinan last night. If last night was a light honey smell, today it becomes sweet and slightly fishy. If you smell it closely, it may even feel a little irritating.
Zhou Rong stared at the ceiling, his ears buzzing, as if his brain was repeatedly smashed into flowers by a 10,000-ton hammer.
He realized a wild possibility.
It was almost noon when Simon woke up. He was a little lethargic, rubbed his eyes and sat up from the messy bed, and asked Zhou Rong, "Why are you here?"
Zhou Rong: "..."
"What time is it," Sinan naturally picked up the cold milk and toast on the bedside table, and didn't dislike it. He got out of bed and glanced out the window while eating, "Yo, is it going to snow?"
Zhou Rong struggled to move his arm that had lost consciousness because he had been oppressed for several hours, sat up, and said slowly, "Comrade Xiaosi, the organization wants to talk to you..."
Sinan turned around, leaned his back against the windowsill, and raised his eyebrows.
"...Are you sure your inhibitor was taken at the end of September?"
"Of course it is." Sinan said casually, "I found you guys on the way to the pharmacy to find the inhibitor. Fortunately, you and Yan Hao rushed in after I finished the inhibitor, otherwise if I knew you were Alpha at the time, You have already become sifter eyes... what?"
Zhou Rong didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Then do you know that there are actually two types of inhibitors in our country?"
Simon chewed.
"What you can buy at the pharmacy is a common inhibitor, which can hide the Omega pheromone in normal state, avoid distraction when you are engaged in field or discipline work, and keep the effect for half a year. Another kind of Omega avoids the annual estrus period. , is a controlled inhibitor, which cannot be sold over the counter according to regulations, and must be obtained in the warehouse of a designated large state-owned pharmacy with a prescription."
"In other words," Zhou Rong explained, "the common inhibitor you take out after breaking the glass counter can help you disguise yourself as a Beta, but it doesn't work when you are in estrus. Continue to disguise for two months…”
Simon: "..."
Looking at each other, Sinan's expression became very subtle.
Zhou Rong carefully considered the language and said slowly:
"According to my basic physiology - we don't teach this very much in the military school - your estrus may be coming."
"The organization wants to ask for your opinion, Comrade Xiaosi: Do you want to use your subjective initiative to overcome difficulties, or respect objective laws, pick an Alpha you like from a radius of ten miles, and the organization will help you match it?"
After a long silence, Sinan confirmed: "There are two kinds of inhibitors."
Zhou Rong nodded.
"Regulated not on the counter."
"Yes."
"... Guo Weixiang helped the surnamed Ren to find... "
"He broke into the pharmacy warehouse, but when the disaster broke out, the pharmacy employees who were hiding in it collectively turned into zombies, so he was chased by so many zombies and ran out."
Simon couldn't say a word.
"So, if you need it," Zhou Rong said regretfully, "we can also try to find it now, but the nearest big city is 2,000 kilometers away, you'd better stick to it as much as possible..."
Sinan stood in a trance, his hands loosened.
Zhou Rong, who had been prepared for a long time, strode up, grabbed the free-falling milk glass like lightning, put it back in his hand, and signaled him to take it.
"A radius of ten miles," Sinan's mouth twitched.
-Although he didn't plan to do so, there could be no other Alphas except Zhou Rong within ten miles, and if there were, they would be zombies.
"The organization will help you match," Zhou Rong solemnly promised, "The organization is very democratic."
Sinan raised his head to finish drinking the milk, shoved the empty glass into Zhou Rong's hand, and pushed his chest to signal him to go out.
"...I'll think about it." Sinan said mechanically, "Please give me twenty minutes first."
·
Zhou Rong went out with the empty cup thoughtfully, went to the kitchen to carefully wash the tableware and utensils, removed enough water supplies from the car for three days for two people, and then took a gun and patrolled the neighborhood to confirm. There are no zombies or beasts roaming the mountains, nor any other danger.
Then he dumped the SUV to the position that just blocked the only entrance and exit of the cement building, took complete protective measures, returned to the first floor, stopped when passing the bathroom, and carefully looked at himself in the mirror in front of the washing table. .
Zhou Rong, 29 years old, is 1.89 meters tall, weighs 83 kilograms, and has a body fat percentage of 9%.
Black hair, black pupils, 2.0 vision in both left and right eyes, and excellent genetics.
Zhou Rong was pitted by the words of the instructor back then, "Scars are the best medal for a man". One year after delegating 118, he led a team to Bali to carry out an ambush mission. During the ambush, he saw Yan Hao teaching Chuncao to apply sunscreen. He laughed at them on the spot, proudly claiming that he had never even used the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Sunscreen is such a girly thing, and she also showed off her bronzed skin - Yan Hao glanced at him with inscrutable eyes, shook his head and sighed, and said nothing; He was almost disfigured due to a fourth-degree sunburn on his face. The half-month-long treatment process made him painfully learn to be a human being.
Zhou Rong looked at the mirror for a while and felt that he was just too rough. If he was ten years younger, just in terms of facial features, he could completely compete with Yan Hao for the title of Flower of the 118th Brigade.
He coughed and straightened the leader's mouth, feeling a little nervous inside.
… ten miles around.
There really won't be other Alphas, Zhou Rong pondered anxiously.
·
Zhou Rong straightened his hair, trying to flatten the small clump of hair on his forehead that was always standing up arrogantly, then coughed and pushed open the bedroom door.
"Twenty minutes, Si Xiao..." Zhou Rong paused.
Sinan sat cross-legged on the bed, looking at a brass pendant on his chest, Misheng raised his head, his eyes bright and innocent.
Zhou Rong's T-shirt, Zhou Rong's close-fitting vest, and the pillowcase Zhou Rong used to sleep last night... scattered around him in rings, like a foundation laid by feline beasts to build their nests.
"..." Zhou Rong looked at him, not sure if he was awake now.
However, Sinan said inexplicably: "What?"
"...I," Zhou Rong said cautiously, "I'll come up and pack my things."
It was only then that Sinan suddenly found the messy clothes around him, but his first reaction was: "Why clean it up?"
Zhou Rong said: "...wash."
"Not dirty."
Zhou Rong was speechless, Sinan leaned back and nestled in the pillow Zhou Rong slept on last night, as if he was a little tired: "I was just recalling what the few people asked me after giving me medicine. "
Zhou Rong walked over and sat on the side of the bed, Sinan leaned meekly, and let the other side open his arms and put him on his chest.
In just 20 minutes, the pheromone aura in this room has changed, and it is more fragrant than when you wake up early in the morning, and you can even feel it clearly when you hold your breath.
- That's because the hormones act directly on the nerves of the brain.
"What did you remember?" Zhou Rong asked in a slightly hoarse whisper.
"They asked me where something was, but I really can't remember what it was. Romuel's father is the leader and investor of many biochemical experiments. Did I steal information related to the zombie virus?"
Sinan pressed his index finger knuckles against his eyebrows and rubbed tiredly. Zhou Rong couldn't help but ask, "The relationship between that Romuel and you is..."
"Step-brother." Sinan replied, "After my father died, my mother should have married his father. But the reasons are very complicated, and I can't remember the specifics for a while."
Zhou Rong: "..."
Zhou Rong didn't know what to say, so he pointed out the window for a while: "You... You know that his father is the former vice president of country A."
"Maybe," Sinan said sullenly.
Zhou Rong's feelings at this moment are simply indescribable in words.
"Look," Sinan opened the brass pendant that never left his body and said, "These are my biological parents, um... You don't want this expression, you beat the son of the former vice president of country A and threw it to him. Zombies, it's too late to think of diplomatic issues now."
Zhou Rong didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Comrade Xiaosi, first tell me whether your parents are high-ranking politicians, celebrities, etc. Our diplomatic relations should be saved in time..."
Simon laughed.
"No," he said slyly, holding the pendant and dangling back and forth in front of Zhou Rong: "My parents are ordinary people, and I don't remember what they did."
Zhou Rong grabbed the pendant lightly and put it in his palm to look at the old photos inside.
The pendant is still hanging on Sinan's neck. As long as Zhou Rong tightens his grip in this posture, he can immediately restrain his fatal point; but Sinan seems to be a beast who has completely let go of human beings, and leans lazily over Zhou Rong. shoulder.
"You look like this," Zhou Rong said with a scrutiny. "At first glance, you look like your father, but if you look closely, you look like your mother. But as an Alpha, your father does look very, um, temperament..."
"You can directly say that he looks like the white-cut chicken in Alpha, or the kind that has read a lot of books." Sinan smiled, "But he is actually a Beta, and I am one of the 10,000 cases of genetic B. The Omega born from the combination of /O, do you want to sign it?"
Zhou Rong was surprised and looked at him in awe.
Sinan turned around and pulled out a pen and paper from the bedside table, and before he pretended to sign his name, Zhou Rong took it away: "No, little baby, I just exclaimed politely. There is actually a ready-made A in our team. The Alpha produced by the combination of /B is shaking there every day, and there is no freshness at all..."
Sinan thought he was talking about spring grass, after all, the development of spring grass has always been puzzling, but Zhou Rong shook his head regretfully: "Although it has been medically confirmed that any combination of A/O and Beta will only give birth to Beta offspring, if Having an A/O offspring shows that the genes are perfect and of great genetic value; but I have sworn that until I find a daughter-in-law myself, I will resolutely avoid complimenting Yan Hao's genes in front of any Omega."
"..." Sinan said expressionlessly: "You just reminded me."
Zhou Rong smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter, Yan Hao is thousands of miles away, and has already exceeded the ten-mile radius limited by the organization."
Sinan glanced outside.
The sky is vast and the pines are like the sea.
Not to mention Alpha within a radius of 5000 meters, even Alpha zombies are rare.
"But it's useless even if he's there," Zhou Rong said suddenly, playing with the brass pendant.
He hugged Sinan closer, and the two of them were almost nestled in the pillow. The Omega pheromones floating in the bedroom were clearer, sweet and sweet, and undercurrents surging, as if some emotion was about to emerge.
Sinan rested on the deltoid muscle of Zhou Rong's arm, and made a small "uh" sound.
"If he's here, I'll let you choose, and you'll choose me. Immediately after that, I'll drive out any other male creatures, and keep you firmly in this turf without blinking your eyes. stare until you reach out to cry yourself..."
Sinan's body became weak, and he asked lazily, "Why do I have to choose you?"
"Do you still need to ask?" Zhou Rong joked, "You have been fascinated by your brother's handsome and mature temperament since the first time you met. Brother is watching."
Sinan snorted lightly from his nose, wrapped himself in a blanket and curled up, the warm water in the depths of his body seemed to be fuller.
It seems that it may overflow at any time with some inadvertent action.
Regardless of his protest, Zhou Rong threw away the T-shirt he had secretly hidden since last night, took off the clean shirt he just put on, and stuffed it into the blanket. The substitute very well calmed Sinan's not sober mood at the moment. He struggled to stretch out two fingers and pinched a button on his shirt to prevent Zhou Rong from taking it away again.
Zhou Rong leaned over and kissed him on the forehead, and asked in a low voice, "It seems that you plan to follow the objective laws of development, eh?"
Sinan was very tired and too lazy to speak.
"Sleep for a while," Zhou Rong comforted, "I'll go get some food."
Sinan closed his eyes.
Zhou Rong tucked the quilt for him. Just as he was about to get up, his little finger was suddenly hooked. When he turned around, he saw that Sinan raised his eyelids again - he would do this when he was a little interested in something and was very cautious.
"What's wrong?"
"Do you like me?" Sinan asked hoarsely.
Zhou Rong laughed: "Of course."
He was full of pity and felt that Sinan asked a silly question, and then the next sentence made him shiver with chills and goosebumps all over his skin: "What about the other Omega?" Sinan said with hope, "It's the special forces competition. The one that arrived, do you remember him?"
Zhou Rong: "..."
Zhou Rong realized that he was going through the most severe test in his life, and the level of eloquence and expressive ability was no less than the century-old problem of "I and your mother fell into the water at the same time".
