Falling into the Abyss

The gray-haired guard turned around slowly, keeping his eyes on Ethan, "Construction site? Which construction site?"

A layer of cold sweat broke out on Ethan's back. He didn't know how many construction sites there were, so he could only talk nonsense: "I don't know, Samuel took me there."

"Jonathan Samuel?" The gray-haired guard stared at him suspiciously, grinning to one side, and said to the rest of the guards, "Go and have a look."

A group of people passed by the stiff Ethan. The gray-haired guard stopped for a moment on his right side and said with a low smile, "It's best not to let me find out that you are lying to me."

Ethan felt a cold current rushing from his feet, and the roots of his hair stood on end.For a moment he thought about whether to tell the truth immediately and kneel on the ground to make amends, but the remaining bit of backbone finally supported him and did not surrender.The sound of footsteps gradually faded away, and Ethan quickly moved his stiff legs and walked up to Taifeng.

The familiar delicate face was drooping, and the eyelids drooped feebly.There were bruises all over his body, some were beaten out with sticks, some had suspicious teeth marks, and there was a mess between his legs.Ethan felt his heart twitch when he saw it, he was very uncomfortable, his eyes were hot with pity and resentment towards those guards, he immediately moved a chair with no back and stood on it, untied Taifeng hands.

Taifeng's legs couldn't support his body, and he fell to the ground with a cry of pain.Ethan hurriedly climbed down from the chair, hesitating for a moment before touching Taifeng's body filthy with stains and sweat, and finally helped him up.

"How are you, can you go?" They didn't have much time to get out of here before the angry guards ran back to find them.

Taifeng nodded, as if trying his best to stand up on Ethan's shoulder.Ethan actually doesn't have any ideas right now, is there a hospital in a place like the Forbidden City?After hesitating for a moment, he finally decided to bring Taifeng back to his and Samuel's room first.

Although Taifeng is an Omega, he is still a man after all. Ethan dragged and hugged him all the way, and when he returned to the house, his originally clean clothes were soaked in sweat.He supported Taifeng to lie on his hard wooden bed without sheets, and used the washbasin to fetch clean water to help him wash the possible wounds on his body.Taifeng has been whimpering softly, his muscles twitching with pain.

Even an inhuman would probably not destroy an Omega like this, right?As citizens, why would those guards do such a thing?

A place like the Forbidden City is simply not suitable for Omega.With a heavy heart, Ethan let out a long breath.

There is no way to see Taifeng naked and shivering. He wants to get Samuel's clothes, but he is afraid that he will get angry if he takes too much.He suddenly remembered the inhumans who had joined him on the Red Earth mission and hadn't returned, several of whom lived in the same building as him.Thinking of this, he immediately rushed out the door and searched from room to room.Most of those people's things had already been divided up. Fortunately, he was lucky and found some clothes and a quilt in the last room on the first floor.When he went upstairs with his arms full of things happily, he suddenly realized that he had started to carve up the things of the "dead man" so quickly like others, and he didn't feel any guilt at all.

After dressing Tai Feng and covering him with a quilt, Ethan sat on Samuel's bed and let out a sigh of relief.Looking at the figure on his bed who was not only unconscious but also sleeping soundly, he was only now beginning to feel afraid.

The gray-haired policeman knew he was with Samuel, would he come to trouble him, would he trouble Samuel?

The feeling of uneasiness grew stronger, and he began to pace the room over and over again.Now he has begun to regret saving Taifeng, he can't protect himself, why is he acting like a hero?

At that time, he shouldn't have gone there after hearing the cry for help. If he didn't go, he wouldn't be seen by Taifeng, and he wouldn't know that Taifeng was here, and he wouldn't be so confused now.However, the matter has come to this point, and it is too late to regret.

There was a low moan from the bed, Ethan looked over and found that Taifeng had woken up faintly.For a moment, he seemed to be the cold and proud researcher in the Energy Bureau, but after the daze faded away, deep fear immediately permeated those eyes.His whole body was shaking violently, and he was about to sit up in a hurry, and then he saw Ethan.

The two looked at each other for a moment, and Ethan watched the fear in each other's eyes settle down a little bit, replaced by some kind of ecstasy.

"Ethan Eldridge!!! I thought I was dreaming!" He stretched out his hand to him, as if trying to grab a long-lost relative.Ethan was a little intimidated by his enthusiasm. Although the two of them had a good chat at the Energy Bureau, the relationship between gentlemen has always been as weak as water.Taifeng has a haughty personality and rarely shows strong emotions.

Ethan hesitantly stretched out his hand to hold Taifeng's hand, and sat on the edge of the bed.Taifeng grabbed his hand so tightly that his bones ached. Ethan smiled wryly, "Pinch me again and I'm going to break my bones. I usually suspect that I'm dreaming because I want to pinch myself. Why are you pinching me?"

Taifeng quickly relaxed his strength as if he had realized it later, but he still just grabbed him, as if he was afraid that he would run away, "Why are you here? Are you here to investigate?"

Ethan was really amused now.He spread his hands, "Look at me, does it look like I'm inspecting it?"

"They threw you in too?!"

Ethan nodded, "Leaking the secrets of Project Zero to a triple agent is treason."

"But didn't the director speak for you?"

"He can't protect himself, so he can't care about me."

Tai Feng nodded, his wandering eyes seemed a little shocked, probably he didn't hear what Ethan was saying at all.

"How did you provoke those guards?" Although he knew that the other party probably didn't want to talk about the nightmare he had just experienced, Ethan still had to ask clearly.He had to know how much trouble he was in before Samuel came.

But Tai Feng bit his lips tightly, as if he didn't want to speak.Ethan took a special look at his neck, and sure enough, he saw two rows of blood-deep teeth marks.

Forcibly marking... A character like Taifeng would definitely not agree to such a thing, probably because he angered the gray-haired guard?Ethan's heart sank, taking away the marked Omega without authorization is the most unbearable behavior for Alphas, if he is sensible, he should send Tai Feng back now...

But after all, he still couldn't see a former friend being bullied and turn a blind eye.

When it was time to get off work, there were more people on the street.The noise in the corridor gradually increased, and the heavy footsteps made the floor tremble slightly.Not long after, the door creaked open, and Samuel came into the room all covered in ashes, with a cigarette in his mouth, and asked Ethan casually, "Did you really stay in the room for a while..."

Before he could utter the last word, he saw Tai Feng sitting on the bed with a panicked face wrapped around his body in a quilt.

"Who the hell are you?"

Ethan pushed his glasses, and answered in a low voice instead of Taifeng, "My former colleague in the Energy Bureau encountered some trouble..."

Samuel stared at Ethan, eyes blazing, "Can't you stop bringing men into the house all day long?! You were an Alpha last time and now you're an Omega. You really don't choose."

Ethan couldn't believe his ears, his green eyes widened, and he couldn't help but swear, "When the hell did I bring men into the house all day long!"

Samuel rolled his eyes, as if he didn't bother to talk to him.Ethan's face turned pale with anger, but he still couldn't refute. After all, he was still wearing Samuel's clothes, and he was short-handed, so he could only be angry at the moment.

At this moment, Samuel suddenly seemed to remember something, turned around and squeezed Ethan's shoulder, "You said he was in trouble, and that trouble must have something to do with the 'Second Master' gray hair, right? ?”

"What second master?"

"It's Maxim Ivanovich Vasiliev, the most powerful captain of the Eastern District Guard besides Chief Schneider, the one with the gray hair."

Seeing that Ethan's face turned pale immediately, Samuel glared at him for a while with eyes that couldn't tell whether it was anger or helplessness, and finally he sighed, "I just said why did he suddenly bring a group of people with him today?" I ran to the construction site for a walk, with a calculating face. It turns out that you are the secretary who is tired of work and meddles in other people's business."

Ethan swallowed, "You seem to have a good relationship with Captain Schneider, right? Can you tell him..."

"After such a dangerous incident on the red earth, it is not certain whether he will come back and continue to be the chief of the guard. Did you forget that he did not come back with us. Now, Gray Hair is the president of the Eastern District, and you really Dare to do it, a little Beta, snatch someone from the big president." Samuel took off his dirty shirt, threw the cigarette butt on the ground and kicked it out with his feet, "You can either send the person back quickly, or hurry up Write a suicide note."

Ethan turned his head and glanced at Tai Feng, who had been silent all this time, and saw that the latter looked desperate after hearing Samuel's words, his eyes were dead, and his knuckles holding the quilt turned white.

Ethan only felt that one head and two were big, and he instantly had the urge to quickly take on another ten-ten mission and die outside.He moved closer to Samuel, speaking in a voice only the two of them could hear.

"You are all Omega, and it's not easy in the Forbidden City, so can't you help him find a way?"

"You think of me as the chairman of the Omega Federation, and I will take care of all Omega?" Samuel kicked his boots flying all over the room impatiently, "If you are not afraid of death, send him to the clinic tomorrow, where? There are often volunteers who like to engage in inhuman rights protection movements, and if they are lucky enough to meet them, Gray Hair won’t be able to touch him for a while.”

Ethan breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to thank him, when he heard Samuel snort coldly, "Some people say that offending Gray Mao is worse than offending Schneider, do it yourself, remember not to drag me into trouble."

At night, Taifeng took Ethan's bed, and he had nowhere to sleep.Samuel glanced at Ethan, who was sitting against the corner of the wall, planning to spend the night like this, moved to the side, and patted the vacant corner, "Hello, secretary."

Ethan glanced at the bed that wasn't wide enough, and quickly shook his head, "No, I'm fine like this."

Samuel was inexplicably depressed, and Yiyi's eyes could convey his displeasure in the dark, "You are a coward, don't give me your Beta gentleman's demeanor."

"……Not so good……"

"Why didn't you feel bad when you went to that priest's little boy's bed?"

"Keep your voice down! That's different!"

"Can't you fucking make it through?"

"..."

There was a rustling sound, and Ethan carefully curled up on the edge of the kang, feeling uncomfortable all over.The heat on Samuel's body, which was higher than that of ordinary humans, was transmitted through the clothes and quilts, and the trace of Omega musk that was covered by the Alpha scent also lingered endlessly.

But even with this tinge, it's still hard to connect Samuel with Omega.Especially after comparing with Taifeng who is diagonally opposite.Ethan couldn't help feeling a certain respect for the tall man beside him.

"Hey, Secretary, what happened to your Energy Bureau? Did the whole bureau come in?" Samuel's sleepy voice suddenly came to his ears, and Ethan couldn't react for a while.

"...I can't say."

"Hahahaha..." The low laughter made the bed tremble slightly, "You are inhuman, and you still want to keep secrets for the country?"

Ethan thought about it carefully, and felt that what the other party said was very reasonable, but he couldn't refute it.

"It's not good for you to know." Ethan turned over and turned his back to Omega.His memory returned to the clean and sharp Energy Bureau building of the third space station, and the secret research center buried deep in Mars, and a chill made him shiver slightly.

He had always felt uneasy when the Energy Agency was ordered to build the Mars underground research station and particle accelerator in preparation for Project Zero.Project Zero has always been just a conception of human beings, which cannot be realized in reality.But the Eves provided one thing that made the other plan possible.Once successful, it will be a new type of energy that only the Earth Alliance has. It can not only be applied to the research and development of spaceships for long-distance navigation outside the galaxy, but also can be used to create weapons that are terrifying enough to devour stars.

Thinking about it now, maybe the strange substance provided by the Eves came from the egg of the preface.

Now that the Ophiuchus Alliance has obtained a lot of key information about Project Zero through Roland, can that Project continue?Looking at Taifeng's situation, I'm afraid it's not too far away from calling a stop.

That might be a good thing for the galaxy as a whole.

When he thought of Eve, he couldn't help thinking of the man with blond hair and pointed ears, and then thought of the night that made his blood boil.He lifted the covers slightly, trying to cool his skin.

Thinking that it would probably be impossible to see Taniser again in this life, and he would not even have the chance to say goodbye, he felt a little melancholy in his heart.It was in this melancholy that he entered his second night of sleep in the Forbidden City.

The author has something to say:

The priest is probably the next chapter or the next chapter~
