On how to avoid being cannon fodder

Luo Qiubai's body trembled suddenly, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Ji Wenyuan didn't speak again, just stared at him quietly, the room was terribly quiet for a moment.

Luo Qiubai's tears suddenly flowed down.There seemed to be heavy sadness and pain hidden in his eyes, he shook his head and said, "Don't ask, don't ask, okay?"

Ji Wenyuan's fingers trembled uncontrollably.Just now, he almost subconsciously took the crying boy into his arms.Ji Wenyuan looked at the sadness in Luo Qiubai's eyes, but felt his own heart throbbing with empathy.He squinted his eyes, stood up, walked to Luo Qiubai and squatted down, gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his fingers, and comforted him: "If you don't want to say it, then don't say it."

Luo Qiubai cried even more fiercely, and suddenly threw himself into Ji Wenyuan's arms and hugged his neck, trembling all over his body, as if he wanted to cry out all his grievances.

"I'm so sorry..." Luo Qiubai choked up, and said intermittently, "Why should I go, go on a trip..."

Ji Wenyuan lowered his eyes slightly, and patted his back lightly to comfort him.He almost couldn't hold back when Luo Qiubai pounced on him just now, and used his mental power to knock him away, but he still didn't do that at the last moment.

"I shouldn't have gone...so regretful..." Luo Qiubai buried his face in his collar, tears wet Ji Wenyuan's entire shoulders, "Woo...why...why did this happen."

At this time, Luo Qiubai cried like a helpless child, confused and fragile.Ji Wenyuan didn't know how to comfort him - after all, he didn't know anything.But his heart was far less gentle than he showed. Even though the man was crying sadly in his arms, he was still ruthlessly thinking about whether this was a trick.

Ji Wenyuan hugged Luo Qiubai expressionlessly, repeating the comforting movements of patting.Luo Qiubai couldn't see his expression, so he didn't notice that there was something wrong with this man at all, and he was still crying hoarsely.Ji Wenyuan was a little irritated by the strong electric shock when he touched Luo Qiubai, but he forced himself down and coaxed in a low voice: "Don't cry, go to sleep, everything will be fine when you wake up."

Luo Qiubai didn't answer, but just hugged his neck tightly.Ji Wenyuan directly hugged Luo Qiubai horizontally, and carried him to the guest room on the second floor amidst Luo Qiubai's exclamation.

He put the person in his arms down on the bed, went to his room to soak a new towel, and came back to wipe Luo Qiubai's face.Luo Qiubai stopped crying, but his eyes were still a little swollen, and he looked at him shyly after wiping his face.Ji Wenyuan shook off the quilt and covered him, looked at his still misty eyes, touched his face lightly, and said gently: "Take a nap, huh?"

Luo Qiubai's face turned red immediately, and he shrank into the quilt, not daring to move.Ji Wenyuan was already good-looking, but he couldn't be flirtatious on purpose.He leaned on the head of the bed with one hand and looked at him for a while before turning to leave.Ji Wenyuan went back to the study and sat down, and asked Yin Nuo to take a nutritional supplement for level-[-] ice-type supernatural beings and dilute it to the extent that third-level supernatural beings could use it, then put it on Luo Qiubai's bedside table, while he sat On the chair, the light screen of the desktop optical computer was turned on.

What was shown on the light screen was actually the room where Luo Qiubai was, and in the center of the screen was Luo Qiubai curled up in the blanket.From a shooting point of view, this shot is exactly where Ji Wenyuan was resting on the head of the bed before he left.After a while, Yin Nuo walked into the room, put the medicine in his hand on the bedside table, and went out again.

Ji Wenyuan frowned and thought, lightly pressed his finger on the dial button of the communicator, hesitated for a few seconds, and then moved his finger away.He wanted to know what happened to Luo Qiubai during his travels, but he felt that people from the intelligence department should not be allowed to investigate.Luo Qiubai obviously didn't want others to know. If he notified the intelligence department, it would basically be exposed.According to common sense, he should feel distressed now, and it is impossible to go against Luo Qiubai's wishes.

He was silent for a while, watching the light screen with unpredictable eyes.Luo Qiubai's behavior was very natural and realistic, but this did not completely dispel his long-standing suspicion of Luo Qiubai, so he took out an ultra-miniature camera and quietly installed it in Luo Qiubai while he was going to get a towel. Qiu Bai's bedside.

However, no abnormalities have been found so far.

Could it be that he is too suspicious?

Luo Qiubai, who was curled up under the blanket, didn't know what Ji Wenyuan had done, and now he was just reminiscing about Ji Wenyuan's embrace just now with some intoxication.

[Ji Wenyuan is so handsome!The sound is so magnetic!So gentle!Gong Yi in this world is simply a cold-faced and warm-hearted male god!It is really worth it to spend so much effort to replace the original protagonist, I have lived for thousands of years and have not seen a few of such superb! ]

Of course, he didn't dare to talk like he did in the suburbs at Ji Wenyuan's house, but no one could see his expression clearly when the quilt was covered.Ji Wenyuan's "Huh?" just now made him almost collapse and pounce on him, he was so stupefied.

So this unscrupulous guy just looped this sound in his head until he fell asleep.

It was already eight o'clock the next morning when Luo Qiubai woke up.He came down from upstairs and unexpectedly saw Ji Wenyuan's figure.

Luo Qiubai's face was still a little pale, he tried his best to pretend that nothing had happened and greeted him: "Wen Yuan, aren't you going to work today?"

Ji Wenyuan looked back at him, smiled and said, "I haven't used my annual leave this year, so I just asked for ten days to accompany you."

Luo Qiubai was particularly moved, his eyes were a little red again, he sniffed, and laughed, "You are so kind."

Looking at his beautiful light brown eyes, Ji Wenyuan's heartbeat started to speed up again as expected.He lowered his eyes not to look at Luo Qiubai, and said, "I've booked a movie ticket, how about going to see it together?"

Luo Qiubai nodded happily.

Ji Wenyuan asked Yin Nuo to stay at home to watch the house, set a destination for the suspension car and got into the back seat of the car with Luo Qiubai.

After getting into the car, Luo Qiubai's expression became a little complicated again, and he asked tentatively, "Wen Yuan...are we dating?"

Ji Wenyuan turned his head to look at him, his deep eyes made his heart beat faster.

Luo Qiubai didn't wait for his answer, and said in a tone that was about to cry: "But I, I already..."

Ji Wenyuan reached out and pressed his lips with his index finger.Luo Qiubai looked at him in astonishment.Ji Wenyuan chuckled, and said in a casual tone: "If you know it's a date, you should be happier, shouldn't you?"

Luo Qiubai's face turned red again.

Ji Wenyuan took Luo Qiubai to a holographic theater in the city center, and he could even vaguely see the magnificent roof of the imperial palace right at the entrance.

"I haven't seen a holographic movie, but Xingwang said that this theater is the best in the capital." Ji Wenyuan said, leading people into the theater through the VIP channel, "I bought the recently released sci-fi war movie , I don’t know if you like it or not.”

"You're talking about the 'Robot War' that has been publicized for half a year? I've wanted to watch it for a long time!" Luo Qiubai was a little excited.

This film tells the story of the mastermind of the Star Network who has its own intelligence and controls all robots to fight with humans. Later, more and more robots have their own intelligence, and finally everyone shakes hands and makes peace.Ji Wenyuan personally thought it was ridiculous, but considering what Luo Qiubai said to him before he went on a trip, Ji Wenyuan thought he would like it.

The ticket price of this theater is quite expensive. Although Ji Wenyuan is a seventh-level supernatural being and can get a [-]% discount, the two tickets still cost him [-] imperial coins.But of course, Ji Wenyuan wasn't short of money in the first place, so he didn't feel bad about it.In fact, the scenes of this movie are very realistic. Except for some battles where the command is very ignorant, the whole movie is very good. Ji Wenyuan tentatively thinks that it is worth the price.

The two of them left the theater, Luo Qiubai was still reminiscing about the cool movie scenes, forgetting all the unhappy things.Ji Wenyuan looked at him with a smile in his eyes, touched his head and asked, "Are you hungry? There is a snack street nearby, I heard it's not bad."

Although the Luo family is not in the imperial capital, Luo Qiubai has lived and studied here for more than ten years. Of course, he has been to this snack street, so he volunteered to lead the way.

Ji Wenyuan looked at his back, but his eyes looked through him at this street full of life.

This prosperous city belonged to the Norman Empire, and he was willing to spend his life guarding this place.Not only because of the education he received from childhood, but also because he really loves this empire and the people in this empire.

This is the place that gave him life and his lifelong faith.

……

Time flies, and three years are fleeting.

Ji Wenyuan is still sitting firmly in the position of deputy director of the Ministry of Intelligence, while Luo Qiubai also entered the grassroots work of the Ministry of Intelligence two years ago.

The relationship between the two is getting closer.Every morning we go to work together, and in the afternoon we go home in the suspension car driven by Yin Nuo, and sometimes we go out for a stroll and have dinner together.The days passed very smoothly, but it has not been able to go any further.Ji Wenyuan has always been reluctant to accept the seemingly reasonable thing that he fell in love with Luo Qiubai, and he still harbors a faint suspicion in his heart.Anyway, the lifespan of supernatural beings is very long, and he plans to observe it in ten or eight years.

But the days were not so peaceful.

Just before 311 o'clock in the morning on April 19, 1 in the imperial calendar, Kaqisha, a member of the council of supernatural beings, came to the end of her years.When her life robot noticed that she had stopped breathing, she was sleeping peacefully in bed as usual.

The empire held a grand funeral for her, and engraved the name of the eighth-level power user on the monument.

But what followed was the vacancy of members of the council of supernatural beings.It is known that there are three ninth-level supernatural beings in the empire, but none of them are in the high-level positions of the empire. It is only known that one is an enshrinement of the royal family and lives in seclusion in the palace all the year round. The other two are missing.The chairman of the council of supernatural beings——Kacina, a powerhouse at the peak of the eighth-level ice system, is the strongest person that can be seen.Four of the eight eighth-level supernatural beings still alive in the Norman Empire belong to the supernatural powers council, while the others have their own affiliations.The current vacancy will be selected from the seventh-level peak abilities within the council.
