Forced to live as "worms"

Before leaving Lailei's secret base, Lailei stopped He Jing.

He Jing had already reached the porch at the main entrance of the villa. He stopped and looked towards Lailei. It was already evening, and the porch roof cut off part of the light, making the already dim natural light even darker. Lai Lei stood inside the door that hadn't turned on the lighting, and his expression under the dim light looked a little dim.

"My brother told you that you have a talent that he doesn't have." Lai Lei's tone was consistent with his expression, revealing He Jing's indescribable strange emotions, and he bent his lips towards He Jing in the darkness corner, but squeezed out a forced smile that didn’t have much of a smile at all, “He also said that to me, but at that time I thought he was comforting me, because he seemed to be better than me in everything. many."

The key word is, at that time.

"I don't think so now." Larry's voice was soft and slow. "You know what I mean?"

He Jing nodded under Lailei's eager gaze, and Lailei seemed to have completed a secret handover, and his body that had been tense before finally relaxed a little.

"Sorry, it's not convenient for me to see you off."

"It's ok."

After a brief farewell to Lai Lei, He Jing took the inexplicable return journey with the bug egg who had come to listen to a secret. A fake bauble, but after leaving Raleigh's cottage, it sprang to life.

Feeling the bug eggs rolling in his hood, He Jing pulled the hood and transferred the eggs into his arms.

The two little guys inside the egg were obviously very satisfied with this transfer, they settled down in He Jing's arms, only occasionally turning the direction of the egg.

He Jing patted the egg lightly, and the two little insect cubs inside the egg immediately gave him two responses, one in front and the other in the back. Thinking of the two little guys' cooperation in actions recently, he put his palm on the eggshell. On the wall, there was a low laugh, "You two have a tacit understanding in fighting together."

Perhaps it is because there are two young insects in one egg, and the young insects that have not yet broken their shells have mobility far beyond that of juveniles of the same age.

There are two little guys in the egg, one is a female insect with small wings on the back that can be seen through the video data, and the other is a male insect whose body is white and clean, and the insect pattern reaction only appears on the chest.

Generally speaking, it is the little male who uses his keen perception first to explore the outside world and the traces of He Jing, and then feeds back the information he has detected to his brother, and then the stronger little female Use force in the eggs to drive the eggs towards the destination and route explored by the little male.

The two worm cubs have a clear division of labor and cooperate with each other tacitly. They are especially good at tracking He Jing, and they almost never miss in this regard.

The female is stronger than the body, and the male is stronger than the spiritual perception.

These words suddenly appeared in He Jing's mind again, he slightly lowered his eyelids, his gaze was still on the worm's egg, but his mind had already drifted to the message that Lai Lei had just conveyed to him.

As Lai Lei said, Lai Yan seems to be perfect at first glance, and it is impossible to imagine that such a bug could have any defects.

However, Laiyan does have a defect, but the defect is not obvious, it is hidden in the commonality of defects that most males will have.

Lai Yan's mechanical operation ability is not good.

The mechanical operation department has not recruited male students for many years, which makes Lai Yan's lack of mechanical operation ability submerged in the big data, which seems normal.But He Jing learned from his instructor that Lai Yan failed the professional triage test at the beginning not because of the opponent's poor nerve reflex speed, but because Lai Yan lacked the keen perception and prediction ability that males should have.

In a more distant era, males and females of the advanced Zerg could enter and leave the battlefield as well. The males' high-precision mental perception could perceive and predict the battlefield environment, and then the females would focus on the weak points perceived by the males. .With the gradual popularization of mechs and the constant changes in combat methods along with technological innovations, mechanical operation was once the main battlefield for males. The solid composite metal shell can effectively protect the weaker bodies of males than females. Provide them with a safer environment to develop their spiritual perception.

However, such a coordinated combat situation completely disappeared after the civil war that consumed the insect population on a large scale.

Males are precious, and this mainstream idea in society seems to have been passed down since the race was established. After the Civil War, this mainstream idea needs to be supplemented with one more thing - males must be protected.The long-term pampered life has made the males lose their will to fight and bury their natural abilities. They who were once able to fight with the females of the same race gradually withdraw from the battlefield, quit the military, and transfer to other safer and more comfortable fields for work and study.

It is very appropriate to explain the lack of males in the field of mechanical operation with "satisfied with pleasure and buried talent".

But it doesn't apply to Lai Yan.

As a model worker among males, Lai Yan obviously does not belong to the "satisfied with pleasure" faction. He is not only strict with other members of the same sex, but also more demanding of himself than others.

It's just such a male insect that should have outstanding talent and ability, but it is extremely slow in the mental perception that the male insect is best at. On the contrary, it is very brilliant in the close combat that the female insect is better at.

"Are you suspecting that Lai Yan's gender may be fake?"

"It's just a guess for now."

He Jing answered Yue Chen's question, and found that his little Xing Xing showed a thoughtful expression after listening to the answer.

"It's not impossible." Yue Chen whispered to himself.

She is a female insect herself, well aware of the inequality between males and females under the current social system, so she is tolerant towards real homosexuals, but strict with real opposite sexes, and does not have the spiritual perception talent that males should have. In terms of physical strength Closer to higher-order females.

He Jing also believes that the probability of this possibility is extremely high, but there is still a problem here, that is, if Lai Yan is really suspected of gender fraud, then how did the other party pass the numerous physical examinations, large and small, over the years.

Yue Chen remembered the medical examination report that He Jing had tampered with.

Although He Jing doesn't care much about the medical report now, in Yue Chen's mind, it is still a minefield that should not be easily brought up in front of his lover, so he remembered the power of the Lai family to tamper with the report This time, he hesitated to think about the form in which to say it.

Before Yue Chen thought of a perfect way to bypass He Jing and bring up the matter, He Jing had already guessed what he wanted to say from his expression.

"The medical examination report of the hospital may be tampered with through the relationship, but the military has its own independent medical department, and the entry testing and regular inspections of all the army's in-service insects are handled by the internal medical department." He Jing comforted Yue Yue Chen's head, "No matter how big the Lai family is, they haven't reached the point where they can cover the sky with one hand in the military."

Yue Chen half-closed his eyes to enjoy He Jing's warm palms, but he only enjoyed it twice when he heard the wind behind him, and then his head sank,

Yue Chen, "!"

Urgently rescued his neck that was almost twisted under the heavy pressure, Yue Chen supported his neck and opened his eyes. When he opened his eyes, He Jing had already moved the heavy object that jumped onto his head just now.

He Jing couldn't laugh or cry as he looked at the bug's egg that suddenly squeezed forcefully between his hand and Yue Chen's head.

Seeing the culprit who was being held on his arm by his heart, Yuechen and Chongdan looked at each other quietly, "Naughty."

The really "naughty guy" couldn't speak to refute, so he could only roll against He Jing's chest.

After educating the two little guys in the worm's egg that they should not smash the other's bag at will, and touched the place where Yuechen was hit before, to confirm that the heavy pressure did not smash the bag out of Yuechen's head , He Jing turned the topic back.

Chongdan's surprise attack not only startled Yuechen, but also made him forget what he was going to answer. He thought for a long time before picking up the idea that he was almost knocked into the air.

Yue Chen asked He Jing if he still remembered Ozzie's partner.

He Jing was slightly taken aback, he searched out the profile of the blond male worm about his partner from his memory, and quickly understood why Yuechen asked him this question.

Yue Chen observed the change of He Jing's expression, "This is just my guess."

He Jing pondered over this guess carefully, and he looked at Yue Chen, "But you think it's quite possible."

Yuechen didn't answer the words, but only gave his sweetheart a smile.

-

In view of the fact that the trial operation site of the space bridge coincides with the actual combat training site, and there are many bugs traveling, on the day of departure, all the bugs and Herders who participated in this star-out operation gathered at the planned unified gathering place.He Jing belonged to the trainees. He went to the college in the early morning, and after meeting other students in the college, he took the special plane of the college to the assembly point together.

When the aircraft of the college of higher learning arrived at the assembly point, the special planes from the military and the Academy of Sciences had already parked aside, and the trainees were the latest ones among the three travel parties.

As soon as He Jing walked out of the cabin door, he felt the fiery gaze from the Academy of Sciences, but before he had time to look in the direction of Yue Chen, he caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye, there was a bug on the side of the military camp. walk towards him.

It was Lai Yan who came.

Lai Yan's goal was very clear, and he knew that he must have something to say to He Jing. Out of courtesy, the students who were standing around He Jing spontaneously stepped back a few meters to leave room for the two males to talk.

As the surrounding worms receded, Lai Yan's polite and polite words also stopped, his eyes fell on He Jing's face, but it seemed that he was looking at something else through He Jing.

"The answers you want are all in this training."
