Falling into the Abyss

Vol 2 Chapter 77: Chief of Guard (2)

After returning to the forbidden city, life gradually returned to the tiring and boring rhythm of daily life. At the beginning of each month, most non-human beings will go to a huge screen near the city wall to check their current moral value, looking for a series of numbers and names, and then there are calculations based on the completion of the atonement mission in the past six months. The prediction of how many years to leave the forbidden city.

Ethan also followed Samus to investigate. Although the previous Red Earth mission was deducted by 10 points, the later Neptune missions and Faun missions combined finally broke the points, and because of saving the sergeant and them Each of the three inhumans was awarded an extra point. However, since his mission to Mars has not yet ended and the points have not been given down, so far it only has three points. At this rate, it will be possible to earn full points for more than 30 years. If you have not died before then Words in the mission.

On the other hand, Samuel's situation is much more optimistic, and he can leave in about two or three years. However, some people say that the more you get to this time, the more you have to be careful. The government will not really put inhumans back into society. The closer to 100% of inhumans, the more likely they are to be sent to death missions. There are even rumors. Anyone with a score of 90 will be pulled out under the pretext of doing a task and then executed secretly.

Ethan was a little worried about Samuel, but Omega himself was not worried at all, and even looked confident. Ethan then thought that if Schneider liked Samuel, he would help him to prevent accidents.

If Schneider is really trustworthy.

"What are you thinking about? Sullen." Samus elbows him, looking in a good mood.

Ethan shrugged, "Who is my next backer after waiting for you to go out."

Samuel chuckled and glanced at him, "Damn, your husband, I'm still alive, you've already thought about going out of the wall?"

"Don't you have a new love and forget your old love." Ethan smiled but looked at Tai Feng who approached from a distance with a sad face.

Speaking of the entire Faun mission, Ethan never saw Tai Feng, and only met on the spacecraft on the return journey. Originally, I was still worried about whether he would be harmed by Grey Fur, but he seemed quite normal, at least There were no scars on his body, and no teeth marks forcibly marked on his neck.

Ethan felt a little weird. It's not that he hoped that Tai Feng would be injured, but Hui Mao didn't take the opportunity to start, which didn't look like his style.

"Samuel." Tai Feng walked towards them, "The chief security officer asked me to tell you that there is a job transfer. Let you go to the Eastern Guard Hall to find him."

Ethan was overjoyed, wondering if he had received Tanithel's reply, so he found Samuel for an excuse? On the other hand, Samuel's idiot still looked inexplicable, so he urged him to respond to the chief of the guard's call.

The guard hall is probably the most heavily guarded building in the entire forbidden city. The robot police can be seen at almost every corner around it. Any suspicious behavior may activate the metal blocks that seem quite harmless. Samus walked up the spacious steps in front of the building, and the oncoming guards all looked at him with strange eyes. Probably few inhumans were allowed to enter here without escort.

Samus secretly scolded Schneider for being too obvious. Originally, Jarvan had been spreading the rumors that he would betray everyone's mice by colluding with the guards. Now it is true. He was in a bad mood, with a drooping face, the Beta receptionist in the lobby was so scared that he stammered and told him that Schneider was waiting for him in his office on the third floor.

The corridor on the third floor is quieter than other floors, probably because the temporary office and conference hall for committee members are on this floor. The floor is covered with a soft deep purple carpet, the walls are projected with realistic and retro wallpapers and the magnificent plain scenery outside the window. Samus quickly stood in front of Schneider's double-opened black door, hesitated, and knocked.

"Come in." There was a steady, magnetic voice from the chief security officer.

For some reason, Samuel felt a little sweaty palms when he heard those simple words. He stretched out his hand to open the door.

The bright and spacious office, behind the large desk, tall floor-to-ceiling windows reflect the gray sky outside. In front of the window, Schneider stood with his back facing him, wearing a clean guard uniform, and his whole figure resembling a cliff with green pine, with an unattainable awe. But in this solemnity, there was a trace of decline, so somehow, it was tickling.

Samus closed the door behind him. "You are looking for me?"

Schneider slowly turned around, his handsome face was temporarily blinded by the light outside the window, "The letter you asked me to bring, I have asked a friend who recently went to Evestar to talk about business. Tani Thrill is now in the Red Moon Temple in the capital of Eve Star, temporarily not seeing any believers or visitors."

Samuel said, "So there is no reply?"

"My friend stuffed some money for a young servant who was studying in the temple. I don't know if the child will really give the letter to the priest in white as he promised." Schneider said. The eagle-like deep and sharp eyes stared at Samuel, but there was a hint of imperceptible throbbing in the sharpness. Samuel swallowed.

"This kind of thing, wouldn't it be easier for you to call Ethan directly?" Samuel asked tentatively.

"Of course there are other things." Schneider walked around the wide table slowly, and his fingertips gently slid across the clean and reflective table. "The construction work on the site you are responsible for is almost coming to an end. Reallocate staff to other positions. And I am missing a handyman here."

Samus observed Schneider's subtle movements and the eyes that had been locked in him, instinctively that something unexpected might happen today...

"I didn't know that non-humans could also work in the guard hall." Samuel's eyes changed slightly, and a slightly frivolous smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Schneider faced him, leaned back and sat on his desk. His uniform is so neat and rigorous, and the buttons are tied to the last buttonhole, making people want to pull it apart...

"What you said on the spaceship that day..." Schneider looked at him meaningfully and swallowed his saliva. The obvious Adam's apple slid up and down under his skin, "I reconsider."

Samuel took a few steps forward, pretending to be stupid, "What?"

Schneider narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was a hint of provocation in his deterrence, "You know what to say."

Samus took a few steps forward, "But I want to hear you." At this moment, he was already standing in front of Schneider, who had to raise his head to look at him because he was half sitting on the table. In his always indifferent black eyes, I don't know if it was an illusion caused by the light. It seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, and it seemed less firm and rigid, and a little more confused. He opened his thin lips slowly and said, "We both know each other's secrets now. It is not a big deal to help each other out occasionally."

Samuel chuckles, "So what?"

The two people looked at each other at such a close distance, until Schneider said in his usual close and cold voice, "fuckme."

In the next moment, Samuel pushed Schneider down on his wide desk, no matter what kind of file dossier had crackled and fell to the ground. He finally got his wish and pulled off the tightly fastened button, and hugged the strong body under him tightly.

**********

Ethan got off work in the evening and didn't see Samuel when he went to the cafeteria. When he returned to their common bedroom, he didn't see the shadow of Omega. He couldn't help but be a little surprised. I am a little worried, will something happen?

He can't even be sure that the worm queen parasitized the egg on whom he and Schneider had? Or are both of them parasitic? After all, in order to breed offspring in one place, at least one Alpha offspring and one Omega offspring are required, so the possibility of one egg on one person is not ruled out. Ethan couldn't imagine that the male worm was in his stomach. The eggs got into both of them. Does it mean that there are still tentacles in the worm's body?

I shudder when I think about it. Fortunately, Samuel and Schneider don’t remember anything...

The worm queen only said that the egg would not harm their lives, on the contrary, only after they died, was the egg hatched. Similarly, if someone attempts to forcibly remove the egg, the two will also lose their lives.

He didn't know whether it was true or not, but he knew he didn't want to bet on the lives of those two people. Fortunately, it seems that there is nothing unusual about the two of them so far.

Ethan looked at Samuel in fear every day, anxiously awaiting the priest's reply. But it has been nearly a month, and there is no response at all.

Ethan was suddenly a little scared, what if he never saw Tanithel again? If it is on the side of Mu Shenxing, is it really the last side? As soon as the fear arose, I felt the back of my neck numb for a while, as if it was overcharged. He quickly converged his mind, adjusted his breathing, and wanted his thoughts to shift.

However, it seemed that someone in the dark had heard his longing, and suddenly, a thought that did not belong to him penetrated his mind.

"Ethan."

Ethan didn't react at first, and he couldn't even tell whether it was his own imagination or he really heard Tanithel's voice in his head. Until the voice repeated, "Ethan."

At that moment, Ethan finally knew that tears of joy might not be an exaggeration. He froze and wanted to respond, but his head full of thoughts made him unable to grasp the point.

Only then did he realize how anxious he was before. Worried about how many things. He envisioned all the possibilities of Tanithel not contacting him, but at this moment they were flooding his mind like a flood.

"Tanisel! You are not dead!" This was the thought he finally cleared out.

He could almost imagine the uncontrollable expression on the priest's face from so many light years away, "Why do you think I am dead?"

"You haven't moved, I thought..."

"I'm okay, fool." Although I couldn't hear the real voice, Ethan seemed to be able to appreciate the gentleness of the thoughts. With sore eyes, he sat down on the edge of the bed and smiled at the void like a fool.

"I'm dealing with some... trivial things in Eve." Tanithel's mind was entangled with impatient emotions, and it seemed that he was indeed in trouble with Eve. But obviously he was suppressing his emotions, and he didn't want Ethan to perceive, "I have received your letter. I didn't expect someone to write to me in such an era. It is really romantic." Ethan seemed to hear the priest laugh. With a sound, he scratched his hair in embarrassment.

"I...I need to see you. Is there a way?" Ethan asked.

"I will come here as soon as possible, but you may have to wait a while." Tanithel's mind suddenly became a little urgent, as if he was doing something secretly and was about to be discovered, "Samuel, don't act rashly. They will not be in danger in the short term."

After speaking, Ethan's mind was empty, and it was obvious that Tanithel had left.

He was stunned for a long time, and suddenly felt that his surroundings were extremely empty and cold.

Are the priests under house arrest in the temple? The chief priest I saw last time seemed very angry, otherwise he would not threaten to expel him.

Tanithel...what are you planning?

Ethan sighed, and then thought that it was a good thing to look forward to something.
